March 1931- G. FRASER ET AL SLIVER BALLING momma Filed June 5, I 19:50
Patented Mar. 10, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GORDON FRASER, NORMAN FRASER, AND JOHN FRASER, OF ARBROATH, SCOTLAND SLIVER-BALLING lvmoi inin Application filed June 1930, Serial No. 459,406, and in Great Britain June i7, 929.
This invention relates to machines contrived to form rolls or balls of sliver or the like upon a sectional arbor or mandrel, being concerned more particularly with machines 5 for making and ejecting rolls ofsliver delivered continuously from a card or drawing frame or other machine which delivers fibre in sliver or ribbon form.
For convenience we shall describe in detail a machine adapted for handling the sliver from a card or drawing frame.
, A machine constructed in accordance with the invention comprises a pair of axially spaced discs, revoluble arbors extending axially of said discs and normally having their ends contiguous, said arbors being retractible clear of the space between the discs, and a driven endless band (or chain) engageable with said arbors and serving, when sliver is delivered to the arbors, to build a sliver roll thereupon and, finally, when the arbors are retracted, to eject the roll from between the discs.
Automatic means may be provided for separating the arbors and returning them to end to end position, as described in the specification of our prior application Serial No.
394,107 filed 20th September, 1929." Manually operable means may also be provided for effecting ejection of a partially formed roll.
In the accompanying drawing Fig. 1 1s a more or less diagrammatic side elevation of a sliver balling machine constructed in accordance with the invention and Fig. 2 a fragmentary detail View showing a modification. The machine shown comprises a pair of axially spaced discs as 1 and extending axially thereof a pair of revoluble arbors as 2 which are normally contiguous but which are retractible clear of the space between the discs 1.
3 denotes an endless band engageable with the arbors 2 and serving, when sliver 4 is delivered to the arbors, to build a sliver roll 4:
thereupon and, finally, when the arbors 2 are retracted, to eject the roll from between the discs 1. 7
Each disc 1 is mounted for rotation on a horizontal axis on a hollow ournal 5 carried by a gable frame 6 disposed on the correthe band 3. v
spon ding side of the machine. The arbors 2, which extend, normally, through the journals 5, are revolubly mounted on the upper ends of a pair of levers 7 of which the lower ends are pivoted at 8 transversely of the axis of the discs, the arrangement being such that the arbors 2.are retracted clear of the space defined between the discs 1 when the levers 7 are rocked on their pivots 8 to separate the upper ends of said levers. Disposed adjacent to and around the periphery of the discs are three pulleys 9, 10 and 11, two of which, namely 9 and 10, have fixed axes and the other 11 of which 'constitutes'a jockey pulley and has a movableaxis. I The pulleys 911 are wrapped by the endless band 3 of which the flight extending between the pulleys 9, 10 is movable within the space defined between the discs 1, so as frictionally to engage the arbors 2, or sliver wound on the arbors, under the control of thejockey pulley 11. The jockey pulley 11 is conveniently carried on one arm 12 of a bell- crank lever 12, 13 pivoted at 14 and having adj ustably mounted on its other arm 13 a counterweight 16 serving to load the lever in the direction to tension The pulley 10 constitutesia driver. A slight clearanceis left'between the adj acent ends'of the arbors 2 when in. end to end relation. a V In operation, the sliver 4 from card d'olivery rolls indicated at 17, 18 is inserted between the arbors 2, andthe bell-crank lever "12, 13 released, whereby the band 8 engages u and accelerates the arbors 2 and frictionally engages the sliver roll being built thereupon. 'lVhen the sliver roll has attained a predetermined. diameter, the arbors 2 are retracted,
whereupon the stretchedband 3 effects .ejec- J tion of-the roll from between the discs 1, the arbors 2 being thereafter restored to position ready for a subsequent roll-forming operation. WVhen necessary, in orderto eject a 'partially formed roll, the bell-crank leveri12,
13 is manually operated to ease .the drivingband pressure on the roll and arbors. The arbors are then retracted; Then by reverse movement of the'lever the driving-band is again stretched so as to cause ejection of the roll, the arbors being then closed on the sliver to build a sliver roll thereupon, and, when to start another roll. said arbors are retracted, to eject the roll from It will be understood that, during the roll between said discs.
