Antique Mechanical Power Hammer Salesman Sample

Compact mechanical salesman's model of a power hammer, built from riveted steel plate and fitted with a working linkage system driven by a flywheel and belt pulley assembly. The frame is constructed with heavy plate sides joined by rivets, supporting a vertical hammer shaft with a shaped striking head aligned over a small anvil block. A crank and pulley system at the base drives the reciprocating motion through a connecting arm, while the upper linkage shows a layered strap configuration mimicking full-scale industrial hammer mechanics. The piece retains a utilitarian, shop-built quality with exposed fasteners, machined components, and a functional layout that clearly illustrates how rotational motion is converted into vertical striking force. Shows moderate wear throughout including oxidation, surface patina, and scattered finish loss. Metal components exhibit age-related discoloration and light corrosion, with grime accumulation in recessed areas. Mechanism appears intact with visible moving components, though not tested for operation. 8" W x 12" D x 13.5" H MM - 20112 - 041026 For information regarding shipping, please visit our Terms & Conditions page here.
