certain new and useful Improvements 7 in Spreaders, of which the follow ng is a spec1-' fication.
In making rope it'is customary to guide the strands to the rope being formed, by means of what is knownas a spreader, the
strands being revolved by suitable devices,
carrying the spreader therewith.
provide an improved spreader for'use in this connection. which will eflectively hold the strands apart until sufficient twist has been made in the. rope, the spreader consisting of a body which is provided with notches in its edge through which the strands are guided.
The present spreader-also embodies two members which are spaced apart, one be ing of smaller diameter than the'other so that the strands are guided towardthe formed rope at an inclination .or angle to give the desired pitch to the twist. Further details of the invention Will'be apparent from the following description. I In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1' is an'elevation of a rope making machine in connection with which the spreader is used. Fig. 2 is a plan View showing the rope partly made. removed. Fig. 4 is a sectionv on theline 4& of Fig. 3'. Fig. 5 is, aside elevation of the small spreader or member and Fig. 6 is a section on the line 6-6 of Fig. 5. i
In the drawings, 6 indicates the" driving mechanism for revolving the strands. This may be of the usual type and forms no part of the present invention. The rope .7 .bemg made, is connected by a swivel hook 8 to a cable 9 passing over a pulley 10 to a weight 11, to give the proper tension on the rope. This apparatus is also old.
The spreader forming the present invention is set in between the strands-02E which H.- Fob Fig. 3 is a plan of the spreader.
-.the rope is formed, as shown in Figsjl y:
and 2, each strand being indicated at 10 T'he spreader comprises a larger body or member 12 having the form of aspider or wheel withspokes 13 and arim l lrand at the endof each spoke,'a notch 151s formed in the. rim. This notch is: heart-shaped, or
engaged This larger body or member is connected by a tubular-rodyl'? to the small body or. member 18. This has the general The object of the present invention is to I provided with overhanging lipsElO its-"1; oppositesides, these lips serving to confine. the strands in the notches in which they are form of a circular spider with notches 19 in its" rim find-"overhanging lips 20-at the sides 'of-saidJnotches, with the same effect asabove described. These two members aremountedon. opposite ends of .the tube 17,1 and "the latter-"beinghollow provid'esgan axial passage or guide through whichga'f central cord or wire or other reinforcing member may be fed into the rope; or when the machlne 'is used'for making electric. Y
