We, HENRY A. WHITTEN and ELIJAH 1). Gone, both' oi- Holyoke, Hanipden county, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in Picker-Motions for Looms, of which the following is a specification.
' Nature and Objects of the Invention,- Onrinveution relates to that class of picker-motion in which the movement of the picker-stick is derived from a rocker, to whichit is attached at one end, the
, rocker being provided with teeth to mesh with a ratchet, upon which it oscillates.
By giving an inclination to-the ratehetpiece when the pulling-strap releases the picker-stall its own 'weight rocks it back.
llhe rocker has flanges that project on each side over the ratchet-piece, and prevent its being thrown oil the ratchet-piece by the motion of the lathe, while the ratchet and teeth to theroeker prevent its having any longitudinal play, and being drawn out of place either by the pulling-strap in one direction or by the weight of the picker-stick in the other. v v
' Our invention consists in making the ratehet pieee adjustable by bolting one end to the flanges of a collar, so that it is hinged on one bolt, while, by means of a set serew playing in a slot, the ratchet-piece can "be lowered to" any degree and secured. The collar passes over a stud attaoheddirectly to the lathe, and is clamped by a screw.
