Letters Patent No. 109,016, dated November 8, 1870.
IMPROVEMEN-rmSPINNING-WHEELS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.Y
To whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THOMAS JOHNSTON, of Ruby Post Olice, in the county of St. Clair and Stateof Michigan, have invented 4a new and useful Improvement in Spinning-vvheels; and I do declare that the following is a true and accuratel description thereof, reference. being `had to the accompanying drawing and to the lettersof reference marked thereon and being a part of this specification.
The nature of this invention relates to an improvement in the construction of spinning-wheels, whereby the spinner is enabled to sit at the wheel while the spindle recedes from her to draw out the roll, and returns in winding the yarn, saving her the labor of walking to and from the spindle, as with some of the machines heretofore constructed.
The inventionl consists in the general arrangement of its various parts, as more fully hereinafter set forth.
In the drawing- A represents a pair of trame-standards, iu the upper part ofwhich is journaled the driving-wheel B, rotated by the hand-crank B.
C are a pair of ways, secured tb lthe upper part of the main frame by proper bolts, and extending horizontally therefrom, supported at their outer` ends in angular sockets in the top of a frame, D, and secured therein by wedges or keys'et. l
E are standards, erected On the frame, andin which is journalcd a shaft, F, which is rotated from the wheel B by means of a belt or cord, G, passing around both. v The shaft has secured to it a multiplying wheel, H. I is a standard, 'erected on the frame A at the side of thc large wheel.
J is a wheel journaled in this standard. Passing around the wheels H and J is au endless cord, K.
L is a carriage, -whioh straddles the near way, reciprocating thereon on rollers 7J.
I M is a rock-shaft, journaled in the lower part of the main frame and in an adjoining standard, and is partially rotated by the treadle N.
O is a rocker-arm, extending upward from the inner end of the rock-shaft, andA having its upper end connected to the carriage by a connecting-rod, P.
Q is the spindle-head, which ius placed on a stud on 'the carriage so as to allow a rotary adjustment ifi-a.
horizontal plane.
It is the spindle, journaled inthe head, and prof d the spindle, which, whenvlled, is removed in the usual manner. The head having a rotary adjustment horizontally on the carriage, she can set it so that the spindle will wind truly, as she may desire to sit nearer to or farther from the spinning-wheel.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-.
In combination with the frames A and D, the ways i O, the carriage Inthe spindle-head Q, the spindle R, the driving-wheel B, pulley-wheel J,.shaft F, with pulley-wheels upon it, cords K and'G, connecting-rod P, rocker-arm O, shaft M, treadle N, and crank B',
when all are constructed and arranged as described and shown, and for the purposes set forth.
v THOMAS JOHNSTON.
