IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINES FOR MAKING BATTING.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 145,615, dated December 16, 1873; application filed October 30, 1873.
a specification:
Machines as heretofore constructed for making cotton batting have been organized for producin g whatA is known in the trade as cotton bats,7 in which the cotton was carded so as to lay and straighten the fibers in the formation of the bat. This method necessitated the use of a number of carding-engines in the process, and the increased expense thereby was more than double that of the balance of the required machinery for the work; and in the process the bat was delivered directly from the carding-engines. The cost of the fabric thus formed was not only increased by the use of the-cards, but the fibers of the cotton were laid more nearly parallel and matted together, which has the effect of diminishing considerably the elasticity-so desirable in this fabric.
It is the object of my invention under this patent to dispense with the cardin g machin ery and to produce a fabric known as cotton laps 7 directly from the -pickers and lappers. For this purpose, my invention consists of ltwo or more pickers and lappers arranged in line, and havingtheir deliveries facing and opposite each other, in combination with suitable sizing and uniting rolls arranged between the opposite and adjacent ends of the pickers and lappers, whereby the bers forming the laps are thrown in every possible direction by the action of the pickers, and the lap is thus formed in the most favorable condition for resisting compressiona feature which the action of the carding-machines verytmaterially destroys, while, the labor and expense of the carding-machines being dispensed with, l proends adjacent and apposite, and with sufficient space between them for the proper ar-.
rangement of suitable rolls and feeding-aprons for sizing and uniting the laps as they emerge directly from the rolls of the lappers, a solution of sizing being applied to the surface of one lap, which is afterward brought in contact with the other, the two being compressed together, and madeto adhere yby subsequent drying. The laps, therefore, form a junction, and are united directly between the adjacent ends of the lappers and pickers. The lap C, formed by the lapper A, passes therefrom over the end roll l), and has deposited upon it the sizing solution by a roll, E, which takes it from a contiguous roll, F, located in the trough G, which contains the size, whence it passes, by an apron, H, to one of a pair of compressing-rolls, l lJ, beneath the sizingtrough, and onto a delivering-apron. The lap C from the lapper B is conveyed, by an endless apron, K, directly to the lap C, at the pressing-rolls, where the two laps are united into one and passed onto the apron K', to be either wound into a roll, L, or passed directly into an oven, in a continuous sheet, to be dried.
The roll E is mounted in a pivoted frame, so as to be raised out of the way by a lever, M, in the event of either lap breaking, or when it is desired to break it when the receivingroll is full.
The pickers and lappers may be of the usual or any approved construction; and I make no claim to these machines of themselves, as my invention is distinguished only in their combination in the way described, and with the uniting devices arranged between them, in order to produce the new lap without the cards, as above stated.
The uniting of the laps as they pass directly from the lappers and pickers allows the lap to be made in continuous sheets; and the advantages resulting from my invention are, among others, great reduction in extent and cost of buildings, machinery, and apparatus, less labor, and less danger from fire, requiring the investment of much less capital in permanent outlay, the arrangement of the machinery bein g comparatively very compact and inexpensive, and the lap being produced nt a combination With the sizing and uniting` relis, great reduction in cost. located and arranged as described.
