1,393,164	Oct. 11, 1921	Tire-Cutting Machine	William C. Reinhardt	Racine, Racine County, WI	Abstract: Our invention relates to new and useful improvements in metal cutting machines of the draw-cut or hacksaw type, wherein there is provided a vertically swinging and horizontally reciprocating blade carrying frame which swings downwardly into the work material to procure the feeding movement of the saw blade. Claim: A machine of the class described comprising a support, a vertically movable and horizontally reciprocating cutting member carried by and extending laterally from the top of the support, a work holding table carried by and extending laterally from the support below the cutting member and means for clamping an article seated on the table against the side of the support and cutting member, said bar being adapted to extend through a work object, and clamping means on the outer end of said bar.

1,467,525	Sep. 11, 1923	Broaching machine	Oscar H. Banker	Racine, WI	This patent date was seen on a "Racine Shear-Cut" power hacksaw from the Racine Tool & Machine Co.
1,563,870	Dec. 01, 1925	Hack Saw	William C. Reinhardt	Racine, Racine County, WI	Abstract: In power driven hack saws as heretofore constructed, difficulty has been encountered due to the dropping of the saw and frame after the completion of the cutting operation, frequently breaking the saw and occasionally injuring the operator. A further difficulty has been experienced in removing the finished work and positioning new work in the machine. The operator usually has to hold or jack up the saw, to maintain it in elevated position while the old work is being removed and the new work inserted. Claim: A power driven hack saw comprising a saw frame, means for reciprocating said frame, a pivotally mounted guide for said frame, means for lifting said frame upon the idle stroke, means for releasing said lifting means at the beginning of the working stroke, and other means including a pawl and ratchet for operatively supporting said frame when said lifting means is released to limit the downward motion of said frame during each working stroke.

1,564,114	Dec. 01, 1925	Portable Rail-Sawing Machine	W. C. Reinhardt	Racine, Racine County, WI	Abstract: This invention relates to the class of metal sawing machines of the cross cut type in which the saw carrying frame reciprocates in an approximately horizontal direction anti has a swinging movement in a vertical direction to attain1 the proper feed or cut of the saw in the continued operation of the machine, and snore particularly to the portable type of such machines used for sawing track rails in situ. Claim: In a portable sawing machine of the class described, the combination of a main frame having one of its lower corners formed for bearing engagement with the bottom flange of a railway or like rail so as to position the frame wholly to one side of said rail, a vertically movable and horizontally reciprocating saw blade with its carrying and operating mechanism mounted on said frame, an upright guide post fixed on said frame, and a claw member formed for engagement with a top flange of the aforesaid rail and attached to the upright post in a vertically and a horizontally adjustable manner, the weight of the main frame and mechanism mounted thereon tending to cant and bind the aforesaid' means of attachment upon the rail.
1,623,449	Apr. 05, 1927	Metal-cutting machine	Arthur Graham Thompson	New York, NY	An undated catalog from the Racine Tool & Machine Co. states that this patent was used under license from Henry G. Thompson and Son Co. This invention provides improvements to patent 1,596,033.
1,765,316	Jun. 17, 1930	Metal-Sawing Machine	John S. Toohey	Racine, Racine County, WI	Abstract: This invention relates to metal sawing machines of the hack saw type, in which the saw carrying. yoke receives reciprocation in an approximately horizontal direction, with said yoke with the frame on which it is guided pivotally mounted on the machine frame so as to be capable of a swinging movement in a vertical direction and permit the downward movement of the saw blade as the sawing operation progresses, as well as an upward movement of the saw carrying yoke and its guide frame, out of the way, with a completion of one sawing operation, and a subsequent resetting of the parts for a succeeding operation and the present improvement has for its objects To provide a commercially practical structural formation and combination of parts, whereby the saw blade is positively fed into the work during the entire active or cutting stroke of the saw blade, with the construction admitting of the automatic raising of the saw blade clear of such work during the return or inactive stroke of the saw blade. Claim: In combination a metal sawing machine, saw blade, a movable supporting means for said saw blade, means for importing reciprocation to the saw blade in relation to said supporting means, means for imparting continuous and unyielding downward movement, said supporting means and saw blade during the entire cutting stroke of the saw blade, the same comprising a screw shaft, manually adjustable automatic means for~ imparting intermittent rotation to said screw shaft, a head encircling said screw shaft, a pair of split nut members associated with said head and haying eccentrically formed outer sides, an oscillatory support associated with the screw shaft, opposed members on said support in engagement with the eccentric sides of said nut members, manual means for imparting movement to said oscillatory support, and a link connection extending from said head to the aforesaid supporting means.

1,819,689	Aug. 18, 1931	Hydraulic Pump	Percy Oliver Ott	Rockford, Winnebago County, IL	Abstract: The general object of the invention is to provide a rotary type hydraulic pump of simple construction and high capacity and capable of efficient operation at high speed. More particularly the construction provides for varying the capacity of the pump by varying the eccentricity of the pump casing relative to the rotor and for controlling the delivery of the pressure fluid to devices adapted to be actuated thereby. Claim: In a hydraulic pump, the combination of a rotor having a body portion formed to provide an annular space, a ring member revolving with said rotor and fitting within said space and defining with the sides thereof a chamber, reciprocating blades mounted in the body of the rotor and working within said annular "space and defining with said rotor and ring member a plurality of pumping compartments, valve-controlled inlet and discharge passages in the rotor communicating with said compartments, and adjustable means in which said ring member is freely journaled for varying the position of said ring member relative to the axis of rotation of the rotor to vary the output of the pump.
