'APPARATUS FOB REMOVING YARN FROM BOBBINS.
Application fi1ed June 20, 1916.- Serial No. 104,674.
To all whom it mayooncern:
Be it known that I, "VILLIAM G. JoPsoN, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at Abington', in: the county of Plymouth and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Apparatus for Removing-Yarn from Bobbins, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the present invention is to provide an improved apparatus for removing yarn from bobbins. Hitherto there have been machines for this purpose, some of which slash the yarn while it is on the bobbins, and some of which have jaws that strip the yarn from the bobbin without slashing the yarn but which scrape the bol bin and'incidentally injure the ribsor shoulders that are formed onthe-Ibobbin. The machines that slash the yarn alsoinjure the bobbin, the cutting edgethat is used to slash theyarn cutting into the wood of the bobbin and in some cases cleaving the bobbin in two.
My present improvement is embodied in an apparatus that has means for rotating a bobbin to unwind the yarn, and a pneumatic suction conduit arranged adjacent the bobbinand having an air inlet mouth into which the yarn, as it is unwound from the bobbin, is sucked by the inrushing air. The yarn is drawn through a section of the suction conduit and accumulates in a suitable receptacle, from which it may be removed in large quantities. The bobbin is not subjected to any harsh treatment in the course of having the yarn removed from it.
The invention contemplates the abovementioned combination in its broadest aspect, regardless of the mechanical details necessary to accomplish the desired result in the most approved manner. There are, nevertheless, some mechanical details that are desirable in order to enable the fundamental combination to handle alarge number of:
bobbins without requiring the services of an attendant other than to arrange the bobbins in a magazine from which they are fed automatically to the-mechanism that removesthe yarn.
Of the accompanying drawings that illustrate one form in which the present invention may be embodied:
Figure 1 represents an elevation, partly in section, of an apparatus including yarnremoving ,means, a magazinefor bobbins,
and automatic means arranged'to feed the bobbins one by one from the magazine to theyarn-removin g means.
Fig. 2 represents an elevation of the feeding device by which the bobbins arc fed from. the magazine to the yarn-removing means, thisdevice being shown in a difierent position from that shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3- represents a sectional view, in a. vertical plane, mcluding a bobbin and the receiving end of the pneumatic suction conduit in cooperative relation thereto.
.F 1g. 4 represents a horizontal sectlon through the same structure as Fig.3, in the plane indicated by line CD of Fig.3.
Fig. 5 represents an elevation, partly in section, of the'assemblage shown by Fig. 1,
the direction of view bein g from right'toleft with reference to Fig. 1. c
Fig. 6 represents a horizontal section through the structure intersected .by lin A-B of. Fig. 5. I
Fig. 7 represents a horizontal section, on a larger scale, through the bobbin holder at the right of Fig. 5, the plane of the section being indicated by line EF of Fig. 5, although the figure doesnot include all the structure within'the length of said line.
The same reference characters indicate the same parts wherever they occur. The bobbin 4 that is to have the yarn unwound from it is held by two cooperative holders 10, 11, and the pneumatic suction conduit through which the yarn is drawn is indicated at 12. The air-inlet opening into which the yarn is sucked is indicated at 13 (Figs. 3 and 1).
Both holders, 10 and 11, are adapted to rotate, and in the present instance holder 10 is driven and holder 11 is mounted in an anti-friction bearing 14 (Fig. 7) and is adapted to turn with the bobbin in consequence of its engagement with the bobbin. These holders are arran ed u on a common a 11 includes a shaft 17. Shaft 16 is mounted in asleeve 18, and this sleeve is mounted in a fixture 19. The sleeve is moved endwise by automatic mechanism hereinafter described,
- totake up and discharge the bobbins. 'Shaft 17 of the idle holder 11 is mounted in a sleeve 20, and this sleeve is mounted in a fixture 21 and is held bya-set screw 22. *By loosening the set-screw. and adjusting sleeve 20 in or out the idle'holder may be adj usted according to the length of the bobbins that are to be handled. A collar 23 is pinned or otherwise affixed to the outer. end of shaft 17 to keep the idle holder and its anti-friction bearing, intact. The diameter of both holders is less than the diameter. of theirrespective sleeves, and consequently the holders and their sleeves are capable of be ing withdrawn intact from their respective fixtures, for cleaning, lubricating, or other purposes. Shaft 16 of the driven holder is provided with a groove-pulley 24. This pulley is adapted to be driven by a belt indicated conventionally at 25 in Fig. 1. The driving pulley for such belt is indicated at 26 and is mounted upon a prime drive shaft 27. A plate 28 afiixed. to sleeve 18 has a hole bored in it to receive a pin 29, said pin being affixed to fixture 19 and arranged parallel. to the axis of the shaft. The function of the plate and pin is to prevent the sleeve from turning, but the plate is adapted to slide back and forth along the pin to enable the holder 10 to be moved in and out.
A pin 30 projecting downwardly from sleeve 18 is arranged to be engaged by a. cam portion 31 carried by a rotary disk 32. This cam portion is adapted to retract the sleeve and holder, and the return movement of the sleeve and holder is caused by ahelical'tension spring 33 connected to pin 30.
In order to show a complete selfcontained apparatus I have included a fanblower 40, but it will be understood that since a great many mills are provided with pneumatic suction conduits for other purposes it wouldnot be necessary to provide the yarn-removing apparatus with a special fanblower, provided the yarn-removing pipe were connected to the vacuum conduit already installed. As shown by Fig. 1 the shaft 41. of the fan blower is provided with apulley 42, and this pulley is driven by pulley 43 on shaft 27 through the medium of a belt indicated conventionally at 44. The entire apparatus is mounted upon a base 45 that is in the form of a cylindric shell. This shell is provided with horizontal partitions 46 and 47 that provide an air-tight waste-receiving chamber 48. The yarn-con ductingpipe 1.2 extends into the shell 45, and its delivery end is arranged in the cham-' ber 48. 1 Communication between the blower 40 and chamber 48 is afforded by a suction gered [with relation. to those According to the mechanism shown, the
bobbin .wouldhave a predetermined number of unwinding revolutionsimparted to it before it. is released bythe action of cam 31. 4 It is, of course,impossible todetermine just. how many convolutions of yarn will be left upon the bobbins, but the average number of convolutions can bedeterniined and due allowance made therefor in determining the ratioof the gearing by which the bobbin is rotated and by which the discharging cam is driven. If a bobbin should have an excessive quantity of waste on it and should be discharged before all the. waste is unwound, the yarnwouldbe broken by the premature discharge-- and the bobbin couldthen be put chine for anotheroperationf The magazine, in the present instance,
comprises'two cooperative grooved bars 53, 54 that form a chute. These bars are providedwith feet- 55that are mounted upon the fixtures 19 and 21 respectively, and are secured by clampingbolts 56. In order--to provide for adjustment of the bars toward and from each otherthe feet 55 are formed with slots 57 through which theshanks of; extend. WVhen it is de-' the clamping bolts sired to adjust thebars 53, 54 according to back in the mathe length of the bobbins, the bar 54 will 5 be moved in or out; and when vit is desired bins, bar 53 will be adjusted in or out.
'105 to make suitable adjustment according to the diameter of the large end of the boblVhen the bobbins are in the magazine 7 their largeends a rest one upon another;
It .is not desirable tolet the small ends of the bobbins rest one upon another because in that caseit would beimpossible to keep the axes of the bobbins parallel. I have provided an escapement that maintains the bobbins in parallel relation inthe magazine i and that discharges them one. by one in keeping with the discharge of bobbins from the yarn-removing mechanism. The escapement device comprises two cooperative tance equal to the diameter of the large end of the bobbins. The recesses 61 between the teeth arecurved to conform to the small ends of the bobbins. Bar 59 is provided withteeth 62 and recesses63 substantially like theteeth and recesses. of bar 58, :but the teeth and recesses of one 'bar are'stagof the other bars 58, 59. Bar 58. is provided witha se- 7 ries of teeth 60 that are spaced apart a distordrop from the recesses of one bar into those of the other and vice versa as the bars are reciprocated. In the present instance the bars are rigidly connected to horizontal pins 64:, and said pins are arranged to slide in bearings 65 formed in grooved bar 5%. All the teeth 60 and 62 are arranged to coact with the small ends of the bobbins, but escapement bar 58 has one extra tooth 60* that is a companion to its lowest tooth 60,-
and bar 59 has one extra tooth 62* that is a companion to its lowest tooth The teeth 60 and ($2 are arranged to coact with V the smaller portion of the bobbin near the large end, as'shown by Figs. 5 and 6, to support the lowest bobbin in the magazine so that its axis will remain horizontal.
The escapement device is operated by a bell-crank lever that includes a long arm 66, a rockshaft 67, and a short arm 68. The latter is actuated by a cam 69. A stud at the upper end of arm 66 occupies a slot 71 7 formed in escapement bar 58. The purpose of the slot is to enable rockshaft 67 to have a greater angular movement than that. required to operate the escapement device, be
cause the roclrshaft' carries a bobbin-registering device, hereinafter described, that requires-the greater angular movement Referring to Fig. 1, arm 66 is moved from right to left by cam 69, and is returned by a helical tension spring 72.
The bobbin-registering device above referred to comprises a pair of arms. 73. These arms are atlixed to rockshaft 67 and their free ends are formed with depressions, as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 1, and are arranged to catch the bobbin that is dropped from the escapement device, to register the bobbin in relation to the holders 10 and 11.
The operation of the automatic mechanisms is as follows. During the yarn-removing operation the escapement device remains in the position shown by Fig. 2, and the lowest bobbin in the magazine is supported by the lowest tooth 60 and its companion 60*. At this time the bobbin-registering arms 7 3 would not be in the position shown by Fig.1,but would be in a lower position. The bobbin is rotated at a relatively high rate of speed, but cam disk 32 is rotated at a relatively slow speed, since the latter is intended to have only one complete revolution while all the yarn is being unwound from the bobbin. Assuming that all the yarn has been removed from the bobbin that is in the holders 10 and 11, cam portion 31 will in due course act upon pin 30 to retract holder 10. This will release the empty bobbin and the latter will drop upon a pair of inclined deflecting members 7 4 and will be discharged .to one side of the apparatus. \Vhile the holder 10 is held in its outer position by cam portion 31, cam portion 69 on the opposite side of the disk raises arm 68- and thus turns rockshaft 67 to place the bobbin-registering arms 73 in position to catch the, next bobbin when the latter is dropped by the escapement device. Slot 71 in the escapement device enables the arms 73 to move upwardly a considerable distance before the next bobbin is dropped; but when stud 70 has traversed the full length of the slot, further movement causes the escapement device to move to the left from the position shown by F 2 to that shown by Fig. 1. The lowest bobbin in the magazine is thus permitted to drop, and all the remaining bobbins drop. from the notches 61 into notches 63 and are thereby fed down wardly a distance less than their greatest diameter. By the .time the lowest bobbin in the magazine has been discharged, the registering arms 73 will have reached the 1303i.
tion shown by Fig.1, and thus the bobbin will be supported in register with the holds.
Although the magazine as shown has a capacity of only eight bobbins, it is to be understood that a magazine of larger capacity would be within the scope of the invention.
