AEPARATUS' FOB DYEING- AND LIKE TREATMENT OF TEXTILE MATERIAL.

Beit known that we, JOHN BRANDwooD,

THOMAS BRANDwooD, and-EDWARD BRAN-D-' woon, subjects of the King of Great Britain and Ireland, and residents of Bury, in the county of Lancaster, England, have in.- vented a new and useful Apparatus for Dye ing and like Treatment of Textile Material, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in the construction of the perforated beams. or

cylinders upon which yarns, threads, cloths orthe like wound thereon are subjected to treatment by liquids, gases, or vapors passing therethrough. Such treatment will be hereinafter generally referred to as dyeing.

The main objects in view are to obtain a beam'or cylinder of large dimensions and capacity without undue cost and use of the. special metal which has to be used in many processes; which will. combine lightness and strength; and which is so formed as to easily provide a liquid tight seal to. insure passage beam.

The accompanying drawings illustrate perforated beam constructed according to this invention.

Figure 1 shows it partly in section and partly in elevation in the vertical position in which it is preferably placed for the dyewound upon it. Fig. 2 represents the beam in end elevation.

are riveted or otherwise secured to it. Such .rings may have any convenient form in cross section, but such form shown in Fig. l is generally suitable.

Near to eachend of the cylindrical shell is placed a flat ring D of the special metal closely fitting around the shell. These rings.

are the flanges of'the beam. To holdthem securely in place and to give suflicient' strength to them, angle rings E of suificlent solidity are riveted to the ends of the shell and have the rings or fiangesD also'rivete'd to them. The angle rings E may be. formed Specification of Letters Patent.

integrally with spokes F and with hubs G by means of, which .the beams can be mounted for rotation.

When in use for dyeing the beam stands vertically on one end within the dyeing vat.

- The edge e of the angle ring E heads down upon an indiarubber or other packing washer through which passes an inlet pipe to admit dye liquor under pressure to the interior of the cylindrical shell. The upper end of the shell may be closed by a cap fitting over it which cap is subjected to eX- ternal screw pressure to not only hold the cap in place but also to pressthe ring E on to the lower end 'of the shell firmly on its seat and to retain it there.

In a modified form of beam one end only may have the spokes or equivalent openings to permit flow of liquor and the other end may be permanently closed.

Other modes of using the improved beam than vertically. as described may be em ployed.

In dyeing it is essential that those parts of the beam with which the yarns or fabrics come into contact should be of a metal'o'r material which is unacted upon by the dye and will not affect the yarn or the like in contact with it. Those parts of the beam which do not come into contact with yarn or the like may be of cheaper metal such as iron. Thus the angle rings 0 and E may be of iron or steel.

For bleaching it is preferred to form all parts of the beam of the special suitable metal. In this case each ring or flange may be formed in a single piece with the supporting member.

The seam along the cylinder shell where the edges of the perforated sheet are brought together may be secured by a metal strip laid along it in the interior of the shell. Rivets. then hold them together and the strip'may be drilled through where necessary to provide perforationswhich are coincident with those in the shell.

What we claim is r 1. A perforated beam for use in the fluid treatment of textile materials wound thereon, suchbeam comprising a thin perforated metallic shell, members for attaching such shell to a concentrically contained shaft, supporting rings secured to the interior of the shell between such shaft attaching mem- 25 to such flanges secured both to the flanges bers, and a fluid tight joint member concentricto such shell, substantially as set forth.

' 2. A'perforated beam for use in the fluid treatment of textile materials wound thereon, such beam comprising a thin perforated metallic shell, members for attaching such shell to a concentrically contained shaft,

supporting rings secured to the interior of the shell between such shaft attaching members, a fluid tight joint member concentric tosuch shell, flat rings encircling such shell shell to a concentrically contained shaft,-

supporting rings secured to the interior Of the shell between such shaft attaching members, a fluid tight joint member concentric to such shell, flat rings encircling such shell and forming flanges thereon, rings external and the shell, and fluid tight jointing members formed on such rings, substantially as I set forth.

4. A perforated beam for use in the fluid treatment of textile materials wound there on, such beam comprising a thin perforated metallic shell, members for attaching such shell to' a concentrically contained shaft,

supporting ringssecured to the interior of the shell between such shaft attaching members,.a fluid tight joint member concentric to such' shell, flat rings encircling such shell and forming flanges thereon, rings external to such flanges secured both-to the flanges and the shell, such rings being formed integral with the shaft carrying means and with fluid tight jointing members, substantially as set forth.

In witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
