FORM OF SPOOL FOR TEXTILE YARNS Filed June 17, 1935 Mmi By His 14/701 g:- a /Z Patented May 4, 1937 FORM OF SPOOL FOR TEXTILE YARNS John Brandwood, Birkdale, Southport, England Application June 17, 1935, Serial No. 26,971 In Great Britain June 28, 1934 1 Claim.
The present invention relates to spools upon which textile yarns and threads are wound, and more specifically, to that form of spool in which the body or barrel is formed of wires or rods placed equidistantly around the longitudinal axis of the spool and parallel to such axis. Generally such spools have been provided with flanges into which the ends of the wires or rods fitted.
I find that where a spool of textile threads is to be treated with dyes for the colouring of same, the dye being applied to the exterior of the wound spool and then drawn radially through the thread masssee the specification of British Letters Patent No. 294,504 granted to me-it is desirable that at any point where colour is applied to be drawn through as mentioned, a wire or rod of the spool should not occur, as the work is thus rendered uneven due to the obstruction.
It is the object of the present invention to provide a form of spool which will ensure that no wire or rod forming part of the yarn-bearing surface of the spool shall be permitted to interfere with the free passage of colouring matter radially through the spool, and to this end the invention comprises a flangeless spool having a barrel or body consisting of wires parallel with and placed equidistantly around the longitudinal axis of the same, connecting and spacing end portions of arcuate form, rigid, and be- 3() ing in staggered relation, and the whole being formed from a continuous length of wire.
Such a spool as to the individual wires of the barrel or body is strong and as to any adjacent pair of individual wires of the barrel or body 35 connected by an end portion is slightly but sufficiently resilient to present no obstacle to angular movement being imparted to the spool when necessary, to adjust any wire to any desired position relative to the thread mass wound upon 40 it and being treated.
The construction of a form of the spool according to the invention will now be described for a full understanding of the invention, reference being had to the annexed drawing. In the draw- 45 ing Figure 1 is a View in isometric projection of a complete spool; and Figure 2 is an end view of the same.
A cylindrical mandrel may conveniently be employed, having upon its surface recesses for 50 the reception at the necessary points of removable metal pegs, and around which pegs the wire may be bent to the required shape. A continuous length of wire, for example of stainless steel, is taken and is bent around these pegs;
55 Referring to the drawing, Figure 1, the bending, with eight parallel lengths of wire as shown forming the barrel body of the spool, is carried out as follows:
An end of the wire being at point a: the said wire is brought to the 1eftthis length being indicated as |and it is then bent to form the arcuate end 2; thence a straight length Ia and a bent portion 2a; straight portion lb and bent portion 3; straight portion lo and bent portion 3a; straight portion Id and bent portion 5; straight portion is and bent portion 4a; straight portion l f and bent portion 5; then straight portion lg and bent portion 5a. The extremities of the wire I and. 5a having now met at the point x, the spool, bent as described, is removed from the mandrel, the removal of pegs permitting this, and the ends of straight length of wire I and bent portion 5a are securely welded as by butt welding in the manner known to metal workers. The spool now presents in end view a series of parallel wires forming the yarn bearing barrel or body, and the joining ends 2, 3, 4 and 5 on the end of the spool are in staggered relation to the joining ends 2a, 3a, 4a, and 511, on the other. See also Figure 2.
The end portions or joinings in the above description are arcuate in form, and this is useful inasmuch as the yarns or threads when wound upon the barrel or body wires i, la present a plane surface between any two such wires. The projection of an arcuate end portion thus serves as a limiting and controlling point for the yarn or thread coils longitudinally of the spool. The barrel or body wires may be closer together than as described and illustrated, thus increasing the munber of wires for any given diameter of spool with a corresponding increase of the number of arcuate end portions.
For a spool of for example eight inches in length a round section wire of a diameter of three-eights of an inch is found sufficiently strong. The wire may however be of any other section which can be suitably worked for the purpose of the invention.
I claim:-
A flangeless spool for textile yarns or threads, such spool having a barrel consisting of stiff wires parallel with and placed equidistantly around the longitudinal axis of the same, and connecting and spacing end portions which are in staggered relation and constitute arcs of two circles the centres of which are coincident with the longitudinal axis of the spool, the whole material employed being a continuous length of wire.
JOHN BRANDWOOD.
