LEROY A. WESTON, OF ADAMS, .MASSACHUSETTS i' BAIL FOR RETAINNG COTTON IN CANS.
Application led July 16,
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it lrnown that lf, LEROY A.. WESTON, a citizen of the United States of America, residing' at Adams, county of' Berkshire, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bails for Retaining Cotton in Cans,l of which the following is a specification.
rThis invention relates to improvements in cotton receiving cans. More particularly it has reference to the attachment of a lbail at or near the upper edge oi a can which is used to receive the rope-like stream of cotton slivers as'it comes from the machine. Heretofore, it has been very objectionable and wasteful on account ot the stream ot rope-like cotton after the can becomes full it runs over'the top ontoy the door. resulting in a large waste of the product when the cans are rolled along the floor from one part of the room to another.
I have discovered that by attaching one or more bails at the upper end ot the can, that the rope-like product of cotton can eiiectually be retained therein by first gently pressing the same downward intoI the can against the spring mounted platform and then swinging the bail or bails upward and over the upper end of the can.
The very light rope-like cotton can then be prevented from escaping from the can, or as stated above, it can be retained in the can permitting it to be rolled aboutthe door from one point to another in the room. Heretofore these cans have not been provided with any means of preventing the very light rope-like cotton product from escaping from the can.
Reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part of the speciication for a. full description of the invention and in which- Fig. l is a plan view of one of the cans showing the bails in their elevated positions.
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view on the line 2 2 of either Fig. l or Fig. 3 showing the interior construction. and with the ropelilre strands of cotton retained under the bails, and
Fig. 3 is a partial side elevational view showing the bails in their operative position for retaining the cotton in place.
Referring to the drawings in detail by reference numerals, Y
l designates the can as a whole of the' usual diameter' and height, the usual diante' 1923. seriai im. 651,393.'
eter is from sixl to 12 inches and tlie'lusiial height is substantially thirty-sii;l inches so that the cans are comparatively vhigh proportion to their diametenl 'lthecansfthere-- the top.r Moreover, this very light material cannot be subjected to very much' pressure.
*for when the yvery light ropelike product is drawn y*out 'of the can the product will be materially injured.
By meansvot my improvement little, if
any pressurepis applied to the product, and
at the same time it thel can. i
2 designates a springfsupported platform which is located at substantially one third of the distance from the bottom of the can. 3 is a coiled spring located under the platform and resting on the bottom 4. Attached near the upper end of the can are the bails 5 and 6 which are arranged at right angles to each other, as shown. These bails are pivotally attached to the receptacle by means of the ears 7 and 8 which are located below the lower edge of the bead 9 which-is preferably formed with a curved outer edge l0, with which the bails may frictionally engage7 if desired, to retain them in their elevated position. The rope-like product of cotton as it comes fromthe machine has somewhat the appearance indicated at l1. The bails 5 and 6 are lowered into the positions at the side of the can, as indicated in dotted lines, when the product is being fed into the can. After a suitable quantity has been received in the can, the spring mounted platform 2 is understood to assume a somewhat lower position than that shown in full lines in Fig. 2 and may assume the dotted line position in Fig. 2 when the product is withdrawn to form a thread or other article.
After the can is filled it is gently pressed downward by the operator into the can to permit the bails 5 and 6 to be turned upward into the full line positions shown in the iigure. The product then assumesthe positions under the bails and, by reason of its springy conditionwill automatically be retained in the can, by reason of the combined action of the inherent springfy condition of the material itself and the upward pressure or? the spring mounted platform is etfectually retained in y 2. The rope-like material is therefore ef-v pensive and very useful for the purpose intended.
It should be stated that the bails are retained in their elevated position by the upward action of the material which is elastic to a certain extent.
` What I claimv is:
l. A can for the purpose des-cribed having a bail pivotally attached at or near its upper end for receiving on its under side the upward pressure of a cotton product when in a rope-like condition, and bead means around the upper edge of the can for temporarily retaining the bail in an upright position.
3. A receptacle for the purpose described, having in combination, a spring mounted platform therein, bails pivotally attached to the receptacle; the upper end of the receptacle having a beaded part and With Which the bails engage to frictionally retain the same in their upright positions, said bails being for the purpose to prevent the elastic contents from escaping from the receptacle, the same being retained therein by the combined action of the elastic quality of the material itself and the spring mounted platform, as described.
