The present invention relates to a machine with av "xed winding frame for winiling cotton linen,. umie, und practicully all tcntilc threuds into-cheeses, cops or the like.

Threadsjwhich are to be used for weaving,

usually come to the weaver in hunks, and

are rcwound by him into cops or cheeses for use in his loom. These cheeses or weft cops cannot generally be formed from the threads as they come directly from the hanks for several reasons, of which the two principal arefirst, that in order to form these cheeses or cops the thread ought to be under a nearly constant tension; second, that the "arrangement should permit of the thread being unwound rupidl y without interruption. With rotating winding frames the first condition cannot be realized on account of the threads catching and the second con dition cannot be realized since the winding mustbe'done slowly, and it would seem that two operations are necessary for constructing these cheeses or cops. the first co n-' sisting in ui'iwinding the bunks and winding the thread in auxiliary bobbin frames, the second in unwinding these auxiliary bobbins and winding the thread on any kind of spool, such as ordinary cylindrical spools, split cylinders of the kind known Alexander bobbins or cop frames of other design.

The present invention provides :1 machine having-u fixed winding frame. and wherein the rupid unwinding of the banks and the winding of the unwound thread directly on any kind of bobbin orco-p frame under con stant tension. may take place at one time.

The fixed winding frame allows the thread to be unwound without tension, since only the thread is in motion and the i'hrcad after being unwound can be carried to the bobbins for forming the checs s or to the machine for forming the cops under a constant tension, which may have any suitable value. The winding cuu take place at a h speed, since the thread is unwound .hout tension.

In the embodiment chosen for illustration,

bobbins with split-cylinders are shown as used for nmking the cheeses.

In the accompanying drawings -Figure l is a side View, and Fig. 2 is an end view of the machine; Fig. 3 is a view on an enlarged scale of a fixed winding frame; Figs. 4 and 5 are detail views.

The fixed winding frames A. are mounted on the bearings C, through which a spindle X, Y, Z passes carrying on one side a ring 1) and on the other side a pulley F. The pulley is rotated by a cord F from a pulley G,- mounted on the shaft H. The thread I unwinds from a fixed frame A and at the same time turns with the ring D and passes down through a centrally disposed guiding eye J and thence to a bobbin frame provided with split cylinders K. In Fig. 2 the fixed frame is shown in the usual octagonal form and the device L for stretching the thread is also illustrated. Loose pulleys E may l a or angcd beside driving pulleys E so that mechanism may .be put out of operation. Upon a tapered part. Y, Z of the pulley spindle X, Y Z is arranged a socket R which is secured in position on the spindle by means of a fastening nut S. To the socket R is attached the web T of the revolving unwinding ring D. The foregoing parts, (pulley E, spindle X, Y, Z and ring 1)) are rotated together by means of the belt or cord l The bearing in which this spindle revolves is formed in the windingframe holder B. A turned iron rod fixed upon the frame-work of the machine is fitted into the bore 0 of the winding frame-holder and the latter is provided with 21 depending part Q, which bears laterally on a guide rod M and prevents the frame-work B from turning. The winding frmue-holder B sliding on the rod t) and guide rod M together with the spindle winding frame and unwinding ring I) can easily be taken .iii' and set again into position.

The winding frame A remains at rest while the bank thread is unwound, instead of being turned by the unwinding of the. thread as in unwinding machines used heretofore, but. it should preferably be arranged -so that it can be rotated for the pl'lrpose of locating the end of the hank threads thereon, as when a thread breaks. For this purpose the winding frame-holder B has a cvlindricul exterior and curries the hub of the 1 winding frame thereon. The windingframe remains at rest while the thread is ung 1,05e,see

wound, but by taking hold of the Winding mounted, said frame being normally staf'ame it can be revolved on the holder .B.

The machine is shown as provided with three Winding frames, but obviously any desired number can he used.

hat is claimed is 1. In a machine of the character described, the combination of a hank-frame, a support for said frame, comprising a round bar, a sleeve upon Which said frame ismounted, said frame being normally stationary thereon but adapted to be manually rotated, said sleeve being slidable on said bar to move said frame into and out of place in the machine, an arm on said sleeve and a bar against Which'said arm rests to prevent rotation of said sleeve on said round bar, a rotary spindle in said sleeve, a dish upon said spindle for unwinding threads from said frame, and means for winding, the unwound thread.

2. In a machine of the character de scribed, the combination of a hank-frame, a support for said frame, comprising a round bar, a sleeve upon which said frame is tionary thereon hut adapted to be manually rotated, said sleeve being slidable on said bar to move said frame into and out of place in the machine, an arm on said sleeve and a bar against which said arm rests to prevent rotation of s id sleeve on said round bar, a rotary spindle. in said sleeve, a dish upon said spindle for unwinding threads from said frame, and means for Winding the tin Wound thread, said means comprising a split winding drum for inding the unwound thread in the form of cheeses, and tension means intermediate said unwinding means and Winding drum, whereby said thread may he removed at hio'h speed and under constant tension.

in witness whereof, K have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two snlr scribing Witnesses.
