Description

CHARLES JONES, OF YONKERS, NEW YORK! IMPROVEMENT IN CARDING-MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 126,813, dated May 14, 1872.
SPECIFICATION. To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES J ONES, of the city of Yonkers, in the county of Westehester and in the State of New York, have invented certain improvements in Oarding-Machines, of which the following is a specification:
Nature and Objects of the Invention.
Description of Drawing.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a cardingmachine. Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the cupattached to end of guard. Fig. 4 is a view of a hinged screw with jam-nuts to support the guard. I
Description.
In Fig. 1, K represents the frame'of a carding-machine. In this drawing all of the small cylinders of an ordinary carding-machine are omitted, with the exception of the fancy B.
A A is a hollow revolving cylinder, covered with card-clothing. B is a small cylinder, covcred with fancy card-clothing, and called the fancy. This fancy revolves with themain cylinder A, but at a more rapid rate. The card-clothin g of the fancy touches the surface of the main cylinderA. The fancy operates as a brush.
Its office is to raise, disturb, and lift up the wool fibers from the card-clothin g of the cylinder A. G is a cylinder, which I denomina'te a guard, and which is covered with wire teeth, or is fluted, and occupies a position below the fancy B and close to the cylinder A, (see Fig. 1.) It serves to catch the fibers which may be thrown out by the fancy and return them to the main cylinder, and also to keep the teeth of the fancy clean and prevent them being clogged with knots and bunches of fiber. I place the guardsufficiently close to the fancy and to the cylinder A to accomplish these objects. I secure the guard in its proper place by means of a metal bearing-plate, D, in which there is a slot, E, which plate is securely fastened to the frame K by a bolt through the slot E and by a nut. This slot allows the placing of the guard at any required distance from the cylinder A. Below the metal plate, and attached to it by a hinge, is a screw, Z, which passes at X into an arm, H, of the frame K, and which is secured above and below the arm by metal jam-nuts. This screw raises or depresses the guard to any required distance from the fancy, and also makes the guard perfectly secure. The .guardC is usually placed distant from the cylinder A, and the fancy 13 about one-sixteenth of an inch. The guard is turned by a band at P. The fancy revolves upward and inward the guard revolves upward and inward.
Claim.
and the guard 0, substantially as and for the purposes hereinbefore described.
