1 Claim.
This invention relates to new and useful im provements in adjuncts for looms and more par ticularly to a quill or empty bobbin chute.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a chute which will extend well in toward the lay of the loom so that empty bobbins or quills cannot fall into the loom mechanism and cause disruption of the operation of the machine and destruction of the quills.
Another important object of the invention is to provide a chute of the character stated which is of simple construction not susceptible to ready development of defects.
These and various other important objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader of the following specification.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 represents a side elevational View of the chute mounted in relation to a loom parts of which are shown in section.
Figure 2 represents a bottom plan view of the chute.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the chute.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary enlarged detailed sectional view on the line I4 of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is an enlarged fragmentary detailed sectional view on the line 5--5 of Figure 1.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen in Fig- 30 ure 1, that numeral 5 generally refers to a loom of conventional construction and involving the usual lay 6. Numeral I denotes the usual picker stick guideway through which the quills 8 drop when they become exhausted of thread.
35 These quills frequently do not fall directly into the receptacle intended for them but in various manners catch in the construction of the loom and frequently cause serious damage.
The present invention which is generally re- 40 ferred to by numeral 9 consists of the plate I0 of elongated shape having the upstanding end walls II--I2, the end wall II being in the shape of a large inclinedly disposed ear, while the end wall I2 is merely in the form of a quadrant 45 of a circle.
From the edge portion of the plate IIl adjacent the lay 6 a lip or extension I3 is provided which extends across the picker stick guideway so that as the quills 8 drop they must strike against this 50 lip I3 and then are compelled to slide down the chute plate I0 into a receptacle suitably placed thereunder.
To the bottom side of the plate III is secured by rivets I4 or the like the ears I5I 6 through which the shaft I'I extends. Said shaft I1 is provided with a depending arm I8 at one end suitably secured to the shaft rigidly as at I9. This arm I5 is provided with a longitudinally extending slot 2|] therein for receiving the bolt 2|, the head 5 of which is snugly seated in the pocket 22 of the plate 23, which plate 23 is provided with the guide flanges 24-24 slidably receiving the arm I8. The bolt 2i is provided with a nut 25 and the plate 23 is secured by bolts 2625 to the frame a of 10 the loom 5, all as is clearly shown in Figure 1.
A second arm 21 is provided with a bearing 28 for receiving the remaining end of the shaft II, the opposite end of this arm 27 being provided with the loop 29 through which a bolt 36 is dis- 15 posed for securing this arm to the frame of the loom shown in Figure 1.
The bearing I5 as shown in Figure 2 is provided with a laterally extending lug SI with which the stop lug 32 on the collar 33 is engageable to limit the swing of the chute II]. This collar 33 is secured to the shaft I! by a set screw or the like 34.
For tensionally retaining the chute with its lip I3 toward the lay 6, a spring 35 is employed, one end of which is engaged into a recess in the bearing I5 as at 36 while its opposite end is engaged with the collar 31, which is fixed on the shaft I! by a set screw 38.
While the foregoing specification sets forth the invention in specific terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size and materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new 1s:-
A quill chute for looms wherein a lay is employed; a chute structure having a bottom, and a lip extending from the bottom toward the lay, a rockable support for the chute, including a shaft 40 positioned horizontally along the bottom, supports at each end of the shaft for securing the shaft to the loom, a bearing for the shaft fixed to the bottom, a collar adjustable longitudinally on the shaft, a coil spring mounted on the shaft and having its end secured respectively to said bearing and said collar for yieldably urging the chute in a position with the lip against the lay, said bearing having a stop on one end and a stop fixed to the shaft in the path of said first 5 named stop to limit swinging movement of the chute.
AUGUSTA M. PRESSLEY.
