Definitions

  • the present. invention relates-to a methodof and a machine for the manufacture of wire cables, which are free froma tendency to-twist and are not under stress, with one or more laid layers of wires of non-circular section.
  • the new method consists in this,
  • the new method and the machine for carrying it into effect are shown in the accompanying. drawing, which represents a side elevation of the laying machine, but in which only two of the bobbins in the bobbin frame are shown.
  • the bobbin frame a.within which the bobbins b and 0 are mounted is rotatedby' means of the toothed wheel d about its shaft e. It is supported on the rollersf, g and k which are mountedv on either side.
  • the shafts of the bobbins b and c are journalled in the bobbin frame in such a manner that they take part in the motion of the bobbin frame.
  • the wires of non-circularosection i and 70 coming from the bobbins b and a are around the core m which is fed through the hollow shaft of the machine.
  • the new ar-' rangeinent consists, in the example shown,
  • the bend in the helical line may increased by the wires 2', k bein guided over additional rollers 7- and s, whic are laterally displaced to' the lines connecting the lines of contact between the rollers 1, 0 and the rollers p, g.
  • the machine will,-
  • each roller 0 pair shall be adjustable along the wire
  • the holders t, u, v and t, u, v are movably attached by means of set screws :1: onto the connecting rods w which have an inclination corresponding to'the connecting lines n, 0 and p, 9'.
  • the rollers pairs n, 0, p, g, respectively are movablyattached by means of set-screws y, whilst the central rollers r and s are similarly attached, in a movable manner, to the holders (0 and v, respectively .
  • the new method may be employed both in the case of cables consisting entirely of wires of non-circular section and in the'caseof thosecables 1n WlllCh such wires, shaped in the manner descrr ed, areto be laid over round wires.
  • the dotted lines indicate the adjustable positions of the rollers
  • the method is, also not limited to the manufacture of supporting cables, but can be employed with the same advantages for instance in the manufacture of hollow electric conductors or cable armourings consisting of wires of non-circular section.
  • the cables made by the new method havethis advantage, that they are almost entirely free from a tendency to twist and are practically not under stress and that the wires of noncircular section permanently retain their correct position. This results in the cables having a very high tensile strength and great durability.
  • a laying machine for the manufacture of wire cables from wires .of non-circular section comprising in combination a rotatable bobbin frame, a plurality of bobbins journalled therein, means for guiding the wires from said bobbins to the laying point comprising two pairs of rollers mounted in the bobbin frame so as to lie along the path of each wire coming from a bobbin and to revolve with said frame for twistin the wires about their axes, means on said rame interposed between the bobbins and the laying point for bending the wires, and means for adjusting the said pairs of rollers with respect to one another, as and for the purposes set forth.
