MAX MUELLER, 0F CLIFTONQ NEW JERSEY.
SEINDLE-BEARING.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MAX MUELLER, a subject of the German Emperor and resident of Clifton, in the county, of Passaic and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Spindle- Bearings, of which the following is a specification. p
The present invention relates to bearings for spindles of spinning machines, and has for one of its objects to provide a simple,
efficient and inexpensive middle or bolster bearing foruse-in connection with the bol ster rail of the mule of a spinning machine Another object of the invention is to provide a bolster bearing which can be easily replaced when worn out.
A further object of the invention is to inexpensive lubricating means which fur- ,nishes a continuous stream of oil to the bearing.
With these and other objectsin View, which will more fully appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the combination, arrangement and construction of. parts hereinafter port-ion of the several parts and minor fully described, pointed out in the appended claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, it beingnnderstood that many changes may be made in the size and pro- 33 of'Fig. 1; Fig. 1 is amodification of the invention; Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view-of a spindle and a modified bearing; Fig. 6 is a plan view thereof; ig. 7 a is a front elevation of the bolster bearing; and
Fig. 8 "is a side elevation of the device showIrinFig. 7.

stance by means of screws. 11, 11, or otherwise, a, preferably, T-shaped bolster rail 12. This rail is provided with a series of conical apertures 13. In each of these apertures is seated the conical head 14 'of a bolster bearing 15, which is made in the form of a tubular member, provided below its conical head 14 with screw threads 16, engaged by a nut 17 which latter bears against the lower surface of the rail 12, and is adapted to hold the bolster bearing rigidly in its proper position, In the bearing 16 is rotatably journaled a spindle 18, the upper portion 19'of the bore of the bearing being ,of a larger diameter than the spindle 18. A cylindrical oil cup 20 is attached concentrically to the spindle 18, the upper end of said cup being arranged immediately below the nut 17 and provided with a flange 21 bent inwardly towardthe longitudinal axis of the spindle and downwardly, for .a purpose which will be hereinafter described.
The bearing 15 is provided with oil passages or ducts 22, 22, which extend through the hearing from the/outer surface thereof to the surface of the revolving spindle 18. An outlet passage23 leads in a downwardly inclined direction from the enlarged bore 19 of the bearing to the outer surface of the latter, through which the oil, accumulating in the enlarged bore 19, is-a'dapted to return to the cup.
The operation of this device Normally the cup is filled with oil to reach a level above the upper oil duct 22. As the spindle rotates during the spinning opera-- tion, the oil c'up 'will revolve therewith,'imparting thereby a motion to the oil contained in'the cup. The oil passes constantly through the oil ducts 22 to the surface of the revolving spindlep which carries it up into the enlarged bore 19 of the bearing;
As soon as the oil collects in this enlarged bore up to the level of the inclined return passage 23. it will flow back into the cup. It will be observed that a continuous lubricating operation is thus automatically obtained, whereby an undue wear of the bolster bearing or spindle is effectively prevented. Should, however, the bolster hearing be worn out, it can be easily replaced, as
it does not form an integral part of the rail 12. The rotary motion of the oil cup tends {to throw the oil by centrifugal force toward the inner face of the wall of the oil cup and Ialso' toward the upper end of the-latter.

leaving h'e oil cup.
4 It is to be observed that the oil cup may be easily filled during the running of the machine, and that an entirely stainless prodr not can be obtained upon the machine provided with the present invention, for the reason that the oil cannot rise. above the level of the return passage 23, and cannot come thus into contact with the thread; The oil can neither atlectthe driving cord 24 of the spindle 18, which cord remains thus in its proper condition to give an evendrive. I
shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings, in which case it is provided with screw threads 25' below its conical head 26, said screw threads meshing with threads 27 in the rail 12.
A further modification of the device is shown in Figs. 5 to 8, inclusive, in which the rail 12 is provided with conical seats 28, to which lead slots 29 from the outer edge engaging the nut 33 from the threads of the bearing, the latter together with the spindle can loo-easily taken off the rail, for instance,
in order to refill the cup with oil or to clean the oil ducts and return passage in the hearing. The oil cup is made in this case of two parts, and consists of a cylindrical vessel 35, fixedly attached to the spindle 18,' and of a part 36, held upon the cylindrical vessel in any suitable manner, said part 36 being provided with an inwardly and downwardly extending flange 37 for the purpose described in connection with Figs. 1.to- 3,
inclusive, of the drawings. The operation, of this device is in all respects identical with that described hereinbefore.

2. In a device of the character described,
the combination with a bolster rail provided with a conical aperture and a slot leading from said aperture to the outer edge,
of said rail, of a bolster bearing having a conical head seated in said conical aperture and extending downwardly, said bolster bearing. having a portion reduced in diameter adaptedto be'accommodated by said slot, means engaging said bearing for atitached thereto to be lifted without firsttaching thesai'ne rigidly to said rail, the
upper portion ofthe bore in said'bearing being enlarged in diameter, said bearing be ing provided with ducts which extend through the lower portion of the same and with a downwardly inclined passage which leads from vthe enlarged portion of said bore to the outenportion of said bearing, a spindle 'ro'tatably mounted in said bearing, and
an oil cup concentrically attached to said spindle below said rail extending upward toward said rail and being provided at its upper end-with an inwardly and downwardly extending flange, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
