-1VIACHINE FOR MAKING TOILET-PAPER.
To'all whom it may-concern; I
Be it known that I, CLARENCE K. Hosrom), a citizen of the United States, residing at Baileyville, in the. county of Washington and .Stat e of- Maine, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Machines for Making Toilet-Paper, of which the following is a specification.
This'invention rel'tes to a machinefor I makingtoilet paper and it has'for its par ticiular object toprovide a machine for mak-' The toilet paper shownanddescribed in a plurality of superimposed strips ing the peculiar toilet paper shown'and described in my application for U; S. Letters Patent, Serial No. 15,395, filed on the 13th day of August, 1915 above'referred to comprises of tissue together at intervals the application paper fastened A throughout their lengths and having tearing perforations or the like adjacent 830111301115 of fasteningso that sections ma'yjbe torn therefrom. each comprising a plurality of pieces of paper fastened together at one point or transverse. line only and not throughout their whole areas.
. 1 is a plan view, partly broken away, of my of the glue applying mechanism hereinaf-': 'ter described. Fig. 4 is anenlarged detail new machine. Fig. 2 is a section on line 2'-2ofFig. 1. Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail relating to the perforating mechanism. Fig. 5 is a perspectiveview of a'portion of a toilet paper strip madeby my machine.
Havingreference. to the drawings, 1 rep-- resents the frame of the machine which, at one end thereof, is made with open sockets 2, 3 .and 4; for supporting the ends of three shafts 5,6 and 7 The shafts 5, 6 and 7 support supply rolls of paper 8, 9 and 10 made, respectively, from relatively wide webs 11, 12 and 13. From the rolls 8, 9and 10 the webs are led forward under a guide roll 14 journaled at its ends'on frame 1 and thence around a drum 15 and guide roller 16 to a Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed August 13,
1915. Serial No. 45,396.
shaft 17. As the relatively wide webs of paper-travel from the rolls 8, 9 and 10 themiddle web 12 has transverse lines of glue or the like applied to both sides thereof by a pair of rotating rollers 18 and 19,- at separated intervals so that when the three, webs are brought together at the. roll 14 they are fastened together at these separated points or lines so that they leave the roll 1i as in} tegral parts of a single three-ply relatively wide web 20. As the'three-ply web 20 passes around the drum 15 a rotatingperforator 21 forms or producesa transverse line ofholesin said web adjacent each line of glue.
The drum15 is constructed with shearing flanges 22 cooperating with shearing flanges 23 provided on a roll 24 which is located be- Patented Mar. 7. 1916. I?
tween perforator 21 and shaft 17 The roll 24: is fastlon a shaft 25 journaled at its ends on'a frame 26 pivotally supported by the shaft 27 which carries guide roller 16. A spring 28 connected at one end with frame 26 and at its opposite enii with frame 1 'yieldingly holds the roll 24 against drum 15. As the perforated web passes between drum 15 and .roll 24 the flanges on said drum.
and roll divide the web 20 longitudinally into a plurality of relatively narrow. strlps each made up of three-plies of paper 11 12 andv 13 fastened together at separated intervals throughout their length as indicated at 28 and having a transverse line of perforations 29 adjacent each line by fastening 28. After leaving the drum 15 and passing around the guide rollerv 16 the several multi-ply strips are wound into separate rolls 30 of the desired size.
Theshaft 17,is supported at its ends so that when a set of rolls 30 iscompleted; the
machine may be stopped and the, shaft 17 taken out for removal of the completed rolls.
The shaft 17 is then replaced and the ad' vance ends of the strips attached thereto and when the machine is again started the Wind ing operation at shaft 17 will be resumed.
Shaft 17 carries a pulley 31 connected by a belt 32 with a source of power, and a sprocket'33 connected by a chain 34 with a sprocket 35 fast'on the shaft 36 which carries drum 15. Shaft 36 also carries a gear 37 which'drives a gear 38 fast onthe shaft 39 carrying the rotating perforator 21. This gear 37 also meshes with and drives a pinion 40 fast on the shaft 25.
'The glue applying roll 18 is carried by a air of arms 41 fast on a shaft 42 jourthrough a chain 48 by a sprocket 49 fast o1- shaft 36.
As the glue roll 18 rotates around the shaft 42 it passes and Wipes against a glue transferring roll 50 fast on a shaft 51 which also carries a pinion 52 driven by the gear 45.
The transfer roll 50 frictionally engages a glue roll 53 hose lower portion is sub-' .merged in'a quantity of liquid glue or the likejheld in apot 54. The rotation of trans fer'roll 50 acts to rotate glue roll 53 and the latter delivers glue to said roll 50 which in turn delivers glue to the roll 18 as Will be clear. The glue applying roll 19 cooperates in the same fashion With a transfer roll 50. I and glue roll 53.
In order to'maintain the Webs 11, 12 and 13 under proper tension While traveling up to the guide roll 14 I provide gravity tension bars 54 loosely supported at their ends comprising means for bringing a plurality of Webs of in sockets 55 on frame 1 and resting on top of the-rolls 8, 9 and 10. a What I claim is 1. A machine of the character described of stripsof sheet material together into superimposed relation; meansfor fastening said strips together in superimposed relation so as to leave the'm'ajor portions of said strips disconnected, and means for transversely perforating said superimposed strips at separated'in tervals throughout their lengths. a
2. A machine of the character described comprising means for bringing a plurality of strips of sheet. material together. into superimposed relation; means for fastening said strips together in superimposed rela tion so as to leave the major portions of said strips disconnected; means for transversely perforating said superimposed strips at separated intervals throughout their lengths,
and means for Winding the united and perforated strips into a roll.
3. A machine of the character described comprising means for bringing a plurality sheet material together into superimposed relation; means for fastening said Webs together in'superimposed relation so as to leave the major portions of said Webs disconnected; means for dividing the united Webs longitudinally to produce a plurality of relatively narrow multi-ply strips and:means for transversely perforating hsaid strips at separated intervals throughout their lengths.
the united Webs longitudinally to produce a plurality of relatively narrow multi-ply strips; means for transversely perforating said strips at separated intervals throughout their lengths, and means for Winding each strip into a roll.
5. A machine of the character described comprisingmeans for causing a plurality of Webs of sheet material to travel in the direction of their lengths and to be brought together into superimposed relation; means for fastening said Webs together in superimposed relation so as to leave the major portions of said Webs disconnected; means for dividing the united Webs longitudinally to produce a plurality of relatively narrow multi-ply strips, and means for transversely perforatingsaid strips at separated intervals throughout their lengths.
6.. Amachine of the character described comprising means for bringing a plurality of Webs of paper together into superimposed relation; means for: fastening said Webs to-' gether in superimposed relation at separated intervals throughout their lengths so as to leave'the major portions of said Webs disconnected; means for dividing the united Webs disconnected; means for dividing Webs longitudinally to produce a plurality\ of relatively narrow means for strips adjacent each fastening.
7. A machine of the character described comprising means for bringing a plurality of Webs of paper together into superi1nposed relation; means for cementing said Webs together in superimposed relation at separated intervals throughout their lengths so as to leave the major portions of said Webs disconnected; means for dividing the Webs longitudinally to produce a plurality of relatively narrow .multi-ply strips; means for transversely perforating said strips at separated. intervals throughout their lengths, and means for Winding the strips into rolls.
In testimony whereof I have afhxed my signature.
