such as are used inumultigraphing andthe like, and. is a" division. offmy application, Serial No.423,689, filed November 12, 1920.

The. usual; method of, providing paper for such machines is to form the same-up in Y rolls which are mounted in the machines,

and replaced with other rolls when used. In

the forming of the rolls, the usage has been to insert wooden spools into the roll to serve as a core, and to provide a spindle in the manifolding machine which is fitted to the core roughly, so that by thrusting the sp ndle through the core, and mounting the, spindle, the paper roll will be arranged to 1111- wind as required by the machine. There are several bad features to this practice.

considered in large numbers, and are supplied at the printing point, so that they are usually thrown away the user. In the second place the bore of the spools does not alwyas run true, and does not fit the spindles in the same manner, so that an uneven unrolling may result, thereby hinder ng the perfect aligning of the machine and lts feed of paper generally. More often the wooden spools or cores become broken, or are pulled out and thrown awaylbythe customer before installing the paper, thereby giving a loosely hung roll on thespindle, which will.

sp ndle.

It is manifest that; the saving inv material,

andtheavoidance of the difficulties hitherto noted, make of such. an inventiomas litren stated, a (lGQKlQCl conti-rbutionto; the art. I accompl sh the ob ects above set forth by that certain construction and arrangeproperly when revolved together with the nient of parts to be hereinaftermore spe- V i cifically pointed out andclaimed.

In the drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation spindle.

Figure 2 is a perspective partial view showing the spindle without a roll of paper lding machine of my novel rack,

Figure 3 is a section taken lengthwise through a roll of paper with the spindle in place therein. i

As a paper mounting rack, I show merely the two uprights 3, 3, and the frame bars 9,

said standards having slanting notches 10 formed therein to receive the ends of the paper roll'spindle. I show a roll of paper 1, formed of a single web of paper wound into a compact roll on the mandrel of a suitable winding machine.

The spindle, in its preferred formhas a main body 4, of suitable length to acconr modate the roll of paper to be used, and.

having reduced ends l1,formed between two shouldersti and 6, at thesaid spindle ends. i

In the form shown thebody portion has mounted intermediate its ends a pair of

disks

7,7, which as shown, have collars 8, pinned to the spindle. means of equipping the spindles with the disks can, ofcourse, be provided, such as staking or criinping them on. i

The width of the disks is not of great importance or the number, although two I find sufficient. The disks are of the size of the center of a completed roll of paper, and

hence are adapted to be thrust into the roll in installing the same in the rack.

The whole device may be made of metal,

. andis permanent and fool-proof. With it,

Some other and cheaper it is not possible to hang a roll of paper A is loosely on the spindle; The reduced-ends are to be .{machined and the shoulder preventseXcessive endwise movement of the spindles when in place,

Having thus described my invention, what the only portions of the spindles which have I I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. A spindle for paper rolls in manifolding machines comprising a metallic pin, and

"' spaced cylindrical filler disks thereon, adapted to serve as the core of a paper roll mounted upon said pin,.said pin having its ends formed with shoulders to prevent excessive side slippage of the same in an open journal and the disks secured fast to the pin.

ing machines comprising a metallic pin and spaced cylindrical filler disks mounted on the pin and adapted to serve as a sustaining core for a paper roll mounted over the pin, said filler disks permanently united with the pin, and formed of metal.

4. A spindle for paper rolls in manifolding machines comprising a metallic pin and spaced cylindrical filler members thereon of greater diameter than the pin, and approximately of the internal diameter of a roll of paper to be mounted over said pin said filler members being united with the pin so as to form a part thereof, and adapicd to serve as a sustaining core for a roll of paper mounted on the pin.
