Specicaton of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 16, 1917.
Application led January 8, .1915. SerialrNo. 1,075.
To all whom, z'tmag/ concern.' y I Be it known that I, JACOB K. A LTEMUS, a citizen of the United States, residlng at Philadelphia, in the county'of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful lImprovements 1n l/Vinding -,Head Apparatus, of Which the following is a specification.
The invention has particular reference to Winding apparatus and embodies mechanism on the winding head for securely gr1pp1ng and locking various sizes of cones on sald head, and steadying means for engagement with the upper portions of the cones, Asaid latter means having also the function of elevating the cones upon their release by the gripping means.
With other objects in view, as will be hereinafter more fully brought out, reference Will be had to the'accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the severa-l views, in which: i
Figure 1 is a View in elevation of the invention, with a cone applied and shown in vertical section, Fig. 2-is a vertical section of both the cone andthe winding head, Fig. v3 is a View similar to Fig. 2 with the gripping mechanism released and the cone elevated, Fig. 4 is a view in horizontal section said spindle 1.
taken on line 1 4 of Fig. 1, Fig. 5 is a View in horizontal section taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 1, andFig. 6 is a view in horizontal section taken on line 6-6 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawing, reference character'il designates the spindle upon which are fX'ed the base 2 and adjustable stop/3. The base comprises a bearing flange 4 and a vcone supporting flange 5, and intermediate hub 6. The hub 6 is bored large at its upper portion to receive a tubular member 7, through the bore of which extends the The tubular member 7 at lits lower end-is provided with a radially extending handle 8 by means of which the member 7 is rotated on the spindle for a purpose to be described. The handle in its lmovement operates in slots 9 and 10 formed horizontally in the hub 6. Both of the slots 9` and 10 communicate with avertical slot 11 formed on the hub 6 Aand extending through the cone supporting flange 5,. Upon the upper end of the tubular member 7 is provided a disk 12 having at four peripheral-points cam projections 1l and the disk l2 and its projections 14 have downwardly extending flanges 14.
At four regular points, pairs of ears 15 are provided onthe cone supporting flange 5, and between each pair of ears is pivoted at 1G a cone gripper arm 17. Each gripper arm has a vertical notch cut therein as at 18 to receive the respective flanges 14 of the cam disk 12. Each of these gripper arms is further provided with fingers 19 and 2() which engage opposite sides of the respective flanges 14". The fingers 20 extend above the cam disk 12,:1nd have cone gripping'plates 21 pivoted thereto at '222, the outer faces of these gripping plates being rounded and tapered inwardlv toward their upper ends. l
A coil spring surrounds the spindlel 1 and bears upon the cam disk 12 and yieldof the cam disk 12, and each of said flanges 14 begins'at'the point Q8 and terminates at the point 29. Point 2S constitutes the radial face of each cam projection 14, and when the cam disk is turned in one direction these faces QS contact with the gripper lingers 2() to arrest rotationy of the cam disk 1n one direction. The cam disk is arrested from rotation inthe'other direction bv the ends 29 of the flanges 14 contacting .with the fingers 19|ot' the gripper arms. The ends of the slots `9 and 10 form supplemental stops and with whichthe operating arm S contacts. 4
In assembling the invention, the tubular meml'ier 7 and its'cam disk 12 are placed on the spindle 1. the handle 8 passing down through the slot 11 in position to enter either of the slots 9 and 10. -In lowering the cam disk 12, its `flanges 14 enter the notches 18 in the gripper arms 17 to support the gripper arms in elevated and assembled positions. The spring Q5 is next placed on the mits the steadying disk "disk 1Q.
hase ot' the spindle 1, then the stemlving disk Q6 is applied on the spindle, and lnalliv the stop collar 3 secured properly on said lspindle. Should any of' the parts require replacement, this operation is reversed, or it may not become necessary to disassemble the entire. mechanism, in which latter ease, the operating handle S is raised through the slot 11 carrying with it the member 7 and its The disk 1Q compresses the spring 25 and as soon as its flanges 1l are removed from the notches 18 in the gripper arms, the latter tall outwardly to accessible positions.
In operation. the hamlle S is turned to the left into the slot 9 thereby rotating the tubular member 7 and its cam disk 12. The fianges 14 engaging with the gripper arm fingers 19 draw the gripper plates 21 to their innermost positions. A cone 50 is then placed over the winding head so that the cone rests upon the supporting flange 5 as illustrated in Fig. 1. Before the baseV of the cone reaches the flange 5, the tapered steadying disk 26 becomes engaged with the upper interior portion of' the cone, and then as the cone is manually pressed downwardly, the spring 25 yields and per- '26 to also move downwardly. The handle S is then turned to the right. or into the slot 10, thereby rotating the cam disk 12 in the opposite direction and causing the cam faces 14k of said disk` and also the flanges 14 of said cam' portions to engage with the fingers Q0 of the gripper arms 17. This engagement causes the, gripper plates 21 to be forced outwardly into firm locking engagement with the inner face of the lower portion ot the cone. The range of outward movement and the articulation of the gripper plates 21 is such that various sizes of cones may be secured on the winding head. It will also be noted that if the cones vary as to size and taper, the steadying disk Q6 will. adjust itself thereto readily. 4After the material has been wound onto the cone` the handle 8 is again turned as afore statedinto the slot 9 to reverse the operation and withdraw the gripper plates 21. lImmediately upon the release of the cone by the gripper plates, the spring 25 will expand and force upwardly the steadying disk 26, and consequently the cone will be lraised from the supporting flange 5. In this elevated position, the wound cone may be more readily grasped by the `operator without danger of the winding being turbed.
