F. A. MORIN WINDING MACHINE Filed De.c. 5 1922 VENTOR 18 BY g, I
ATTORNEY WINDING MAC I f 1.
Application filed December 5, 1922. Serial Ito. 805,019.
Heretofore it has been the general practice to dye'yarn in the chain and then wind it upon yarn receivers or bobbins by a quilflingmachine for subsequent use in the loom. It
as also been suggested heretofore that the yarn could be wound into a package andthen dyed by forcing the dye material into the wound yarn package. Yarn whether dyed in the chain or in the wound package usually carries with it or projecting from it small portions of fibre which. become detached from the yarn during its subsequent winding operation onto the yarn receivers, and accumulate on the yarn guiding means or other arts of the machine and are either carried a on with the yarn in undesirable bunches or e ect a discharge of the yarn itself from the yarn guiding and tensioning means. a
The object of the present invention is to provide a winding machine for winding yarn upon yarn receivers or bobbins inwhich the objectionable accumulation of l1nt on the yarn iding means or other parts and the distur ances of the yarn with relation to the yarn guiding means or tensioning devices are entirely obviated; and while the advantages of the invention are more manifeet in connection with dyed yarn, the invention may be advantageously employed in connection with winding other kinds of yarn and are also observable in winding machines of any general character such as spooling or other machines.
The novel characteristics and new com-' bination of parts .will be made clear from the following description and the accom-- an ing draw s of one good form of windi hg machinedi nfimdying the present invention.
In the drawings: a I
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a winding machine containing the present invention, only suflicient portions of the machinebeing shown as are necessary to make clear the invention and its mode of operation;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view through one of thei yarn packages, and its rotatable, support; an
Fig. 3 is a sectional view of one form of yarn engaging and clearing means between the yarn supply and the receiver on which the am is to be wound. I
T e machine which has been selected for the present explanation of the invention is designed to wind the yarn by filling wind upon the yarn receivers or bobbins and represents in general the ordinary spinning frame modified to embody the present invention, but as hereinbefore noted, the invention is not necessarily limited to such machine but mafia advantageously employed in other mac 'es for winding yarn upon yarn receivers, such, for instance, as spoolers and the like.
The machine frame as shown comprises the end members 1 which are joined by cross pieces 2 which in the present illustration constitute what is commonly known as a spindle rail. The spindle rail 2 has mounted thereon the spindles 3, each of which carries a yarn receiver or bobbin 4, as usual. The spindles and yarn receivers or bobbins are rotated, as usual, by suitable bands 5 driven from the usual cylinder or tin'roller 6.
The ring rail 7'is connected by the rods 8 .with the usual yarn builder mechanism which serves the purpose of raising and lowering the ring rail to direct the yarn u on the yarn receivers. The ring rail 7 as mounted thereon the rings 9 and associated with each ring is a fixed yarn guide 10, the
purpose of which is to guide the yarn from a fixed point upon the ring rail to the yarn receiver with which it is associated.
Extending between the frames 1 of the machine is a. top frame .11 on which is mounted for rotative movement a series of supports 12 for the wound yarn p'ackages 13.
the supports 12 is a stud. or centering de vice 15.
Where the yarn is dyed in the wound package, as indicated in Fig. 2, the vcore of the package is formed by a spring 16 over which is pl :1 w a piece of fabric 17, theconstruction being sch that the dye may be forced inwar y or outwardly through the wound yarn on the core 16.
Each of the supports 12 on which the yarn package is supported is given rotative movement in order to facilitate unwinding of the yarn from the supporting yarn package. This is particularlywdesirable when the yarn which is to be wound upon yarn receivers or bobbins 4 is dyed, and the utility of rotating the yarn package manifests itself during the unwinding of the package as'the yarn will not hang or cling to or stick upon the package, but will be presented in proper position by the rotation of the package for the yarn to be drawn or pulled therefrom.
Anysuitable means may be employed for,
I to% frame 11.
ch of the worm shafts 20 is provided with a sprocket wheel 22 about which passes a sprocket chain 23. The sprocket chain 23, as shown, passes over a sprocket wheel 24 mounted upon a shaft 25, and the shaft 25,
' as shown, is provided with a gear 26 which derives motion through a train of gearing 27, 28 from a gear 29 driven by a going part of the machine.
Arising from the machine frame are up rights or supports for an overhead frame or guide and in the present instance one of said uprights is shown having adjustably secured thereto by a set screw 31 the yarn guide frame 32.
The yarn guide frame 32 has its side port-ions provided with shaft supporting brackets 33, one at each side of the machine, and each bracket has a bearing 34 in which is mounted the rotatable shaft 35 which receives its rotative movement through the sprocket chain 36 passing over a sprocket wheel 37 fixed to the shaft 35 and operated from the sprocket wheel 38 mounted on the rotating shaft 35.
Secured to the rotating shaft 35 are a series of yarn enga ing devices which serve to draw the yarn rom the yarn packages 13 and deliver it under a proper tension to the yarn receivers 4. a
As more clearl indicated in Fig. 3, eachof the arm engaging devices on the shaft 35 cons1sts of two members or flaring disks aeeaeer 40 fixed to the shaft 35 by a set screw 41. The opposing member or flared disk 39 is mounted on an extension 42 of the hub 40 and is-normally pressed towards the companion disk 39 by a spring 43, one end of which rests against the disk, as shown in Fig. 3, and the other end of which bears upon a collar or nut 44 threaded to the extension 42 of the hub, a lock-nut 45 serving to hold the parts with a spring under adjustable tension. From the construction described it will be apparent that as the shaft 35 is positively rotated, the 'severalyarn engaging devices comprising in the present instance the disks 39, will rotate therewith.
The yarn a is led from the yarn packages 13 over suitable yarn guides 46 carried by the guide frame 32 and then between the disks 39, Without, however, passing completely around the shaft 35. In other words, the yarn passes between the disks 39 on its way' from the yarn package to the yarn receiver and is positively drawn from the yarn package by the grip thereon between the disks 39, the eflect being that the yarn will be delivered to be wound upon the yarn receivers under appropriate tension, and the accumulation of lint between the disks 39 will be obviated, so that the yarn 1 itself will not be pushed outwardly from the bight between the disks. Any lint that may be detached from the yarn will fall away from between the disks as they "rotate, and the grip of the disks upon the yarn will remain undisturbed. The positive rotation of the yarn engaging devices by the shaft 35 also tends to smooth the yarn and lay any projecting fibres close to the yarn, the timed rotation of the disks being such. that they not only draw the yarn from the yarn package but deliver it to the yarn receiver under appropriate tension.
As indicated in Fig. 1, it will be noted, that the yarn a after being delivered by the rotating yarn engaging devices passes under the looped portion of the fixed yarn guide 10 and from there directly to the yarn receiver or bobbin on which the yarn is to be wound.
What is claimed is:
