GAMING-MACHINE.
Specification of Letters Patent;
'Patented Apr. 1, 1919.
Applicationnied May 31, 191s, serial No. 237,433.
To all whom t may concern j Be it known that we, LUTHER ATHERTon and OSCAR MEEK, citizens of the United States, residing at Tallassee, in the county of Elmore and State ofAlab'ama, have `1nvented certain new and useful Improvements in Carding-Machines, of ywhich the followcrease thel production of .the machine and, lengthen the wearing life' of the licker-in,
card cylinder and other co-acting parts.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a longitudinal section through a portion of a carding machine constructed according to this invention. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of a portion of the cleaning roll. Fig. 3 is a side view of the devices for driving the cleaning roll, showing the shafts in cross-section.
The card c linder 2 of themachine is of an approve construction, and it is provi ed with a revoluble licker-in 3. A feed table 4 is also provided, and a revoluble feed roll 5 is arranged adjacent to the licker-in, above the feed table. Stationary mote knives 6 are arranged under the licker-in and adadjacent to the feed table, and rotary mote knives 7 are arranged under the licker-in, between the stationary mote knives and the card cylinder. The various revolving parts are driven in the direction of the curved arrows in the drawings by any approved driving mechanism .which is not a part vof the present invention. The construction and operation of the above parts isnot novel, and is not hereinafter claimed.
The licker-in is provided with a stationary housing 8 secured to the frameof lthe machine and extending over the upper side of the licker-in, and a longitudinal slot 9 is formed in this housing above the licker-in shaft 10. Brackets 12 are secured to the housing at the ends of this slot 9, and 14 are bearings which are secured to the brackets 12 by bolts 15. The bearings 14 have slots can be adjusted. The openings 17 in the brackets aremade of larger diameter than the holes of the bearings and are concentric with them. A shaft 18 is journaled in the las the fillet.v This `cleaning roll projects through the slot 9 in thelicker-in housing, and it is revolved at about three timesthe speed of the licker-in, and in the reverse direction. A light metallic cover 20`is secured to the housing and to the brackets 12, and extends over the cleaning roll. `A driving sheave `21 secured on the licker-in shaft, and `a similar sheave 22 of the same diameter is mounted on a countershaft or pin 24 secured to the frame of the machine at a suitable distance from the licker-in shaft. A straight drive cord 25 passes over the two sheaves 21 and 22, and a driving sheave 26 is secured to the sheave 22 so that it revolves with it. The sheave 26 is preferably larger in diameter than the sheave 22, and a sheave 27 is secured on the shaft of the cleaner roll and is preferably about one-third the diameter of the sheave 26. A crossed cord 30 passes over the sheaves 26 and 27 so that the cleaner roll is revolved in the opposite direction from the licker-in. i
The arrangement of the sheaves and the length of the driving cords permits of the adjustment `of the cleaner roll with respect to the licker-in. The cleaner roll operates to keep the licker-in from lapping up and getting hot. When the licker-in gets hot it takes the temper outof the wires of the carding cylinder, and by the use of this cleaner roll, when properly adjusted, the working life of the licker-in and of thecarding cylinder is greatly increased.
What we claim is:
1. The combination, with a carding cylinder, and a licker-in; of a stationary housing secured over the licker-in and provided with a longitudinal slot, stationary brackets secured to the housing at the ends of the said slot, bearings secured to the said brackets and adjustable with respect to `the licker-in, a cleaning roll provided with a shaft which is j ournaled in the said bearings, said cleaning roll having at its periphery wire fancy llet and projecting through the slot in the licker-in housing and engaging with the licker-in, a stationary cover secured to the said brackets and around the slot in the housing and inclosing the cleaning roll, and means for revolving the cleaner roll in the reverse direction to the licher-1n.
2. The combination, With a carding cylin-r der, and a licher-1n; or a stationary housingsecured'over the licher-in and provided with a longitudinal slot, stationary brackets secured to the housing at the ends oi" the said slot, bearings secured to the said brackets Vsecured `to the licher-in and to the cleaner roll respectively, two driving Wheels secured together and mounted on a counter-shaft or pin, and flexible driving connections passing over the saidavheels and operating to drive the cleaner roll in the reverse Vdirection from the licher-in and to permit the adjustn'ient of the cleaner roll.
3. The combination, with a carding cylinder, a licler-in, and inote knife devices arranged belovv the licher-in; of a stationary housing secured over the licker-in and provided With a longitudinal" slot,` stationary brackets secured to the housing' at the ends of the slot, a stationary cover arranged over the said slot and secured to the said brackets,
an adjustable cleaning roll arranged under the said cover and above the licher-in and projecting through the said slot; Vand in eans for revolving the cleaner roll. y Y
In testimony whereof We aiiX our signatures. v
