2 Claims.
My invention relates to an improvement in looms for making strips for rugs. The object of my invention is to provide a loom that is inexpensive, simple to make and use as well as to provide a loom that ishighly eflicient in its work.
Now referring to the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the loom.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of th warp cord tightening device.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail perspective view of the warp cord tightening device, the parts being expanded to more fully illustrate the several pieces of the device.
Fig. 4 is a front detail view of the warp cord tightening device.
Fig. 5 is a detail sectional View of the warp cord tightening device, the view being taken along the line V-V in Fig. 4 and looking in the direction of the arrows.
Fig. 6 is an end view of the warp cord tightening device.
Fig. 7 is a detail perspective view of the binding post for the warp cord.
Fig. 8 is a detail perspective view of the warp cord bail and guide Similar numerals of reference designate the same parts throughout the several figures of the drawing.
In the drawing is shown my improved loom which comprises a long and narrow base or board it), one end of which is provided With an open topped box II that is rigidly and permanently aifixed thereto. The box II is large enough to hold two full balls of warp cord I2 and I3. The balls of warp cord I2 and I3 shown in Fig. l are shown small for convenience of illustration of other parts of the device. The box II is provided with a warp bail I4 which comprises a wire element that is bent in a U-shape and having inwardly turned ends Ma and I412 that are adapted to be seated in holes in the ends of the box II as shown in Fig. l. The central portion of the bail I4 is provided with a pair of eye formations I5 and I6 that function as a Warp guide.
On the other end of the base board It! is rigidly mounted a warp clamp post IT. The warp post I! is split as designated at I8 to provide a crack or narrow slot to receive the warp cords I9 and 20. The warp post I1 is provided with a wing nut and bolt 29a which, when tightened will bind the warp cords I9 and 20 in the cut I8. Rigidly mounted on the base board It! and'adjacent the box I I is a warp cord tightening device comprising a pair of end support elements 2| and 22 that are rigidly attached to a block element 23, all of whichis rigidly mounted on the base board). The upper end of the end support element 2| is provided with a hole 24, the object of which will later be explained. The upper end of the end support element 22 is provided with a U-shaped opening 25, the object of which will later be explained. At 26 is a reeling element, having a pin 21 on one end thereof and another pin element 28 on the other end thereof on which is mounted a handle element 29.1 Y 7 The reel 26 is provided with a longitudinal and diametrical cut26a to receive the warp cord as will later be described.
- 'On the end of'the' reel element 26, adjacent the pin 28 is a plurality of projecting pin elements 30,
substantially equally spaced around the reel 26.
Rigidly attachedto the block 23.is a leafspring element 3I having a slot32 therein, the object of which will later be explained.
To assemble the reel 26 in the supporting elements Hand 22, the pin element 21 is entered into the hole 24 and the pin element 28 is positioned in the opening 25 in the support element 22, whereupon the pins 30 will enter the slot 32 in the leaf spring element 3| in such a manner as to form a ratchet device which will permit the turning of the reel 26 in one direction only.
The operation of the device is as follows: The warp bail I4 is rocked from over the top of the open box II, whereupon two balls of warp cord are placed in the box II. This being done, the bail I4 is swung back over the top of the open box II and the cord from the ball I2 is threaded through the eye I5 and the cord from the ball I3 is threaded through the eye I6.
The ends of both of these cords now designated as I 9 and are placed in the cut I8 in the binding post I! and the wing nut 20a is tightened so as to clamp and rigidly hold the warp cords I9 and 20, in the post I1.
Now the cord 20 and then the cord I9 are slipped into the slot 26a in the reel 26, and positioned in a spaced apart position as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. This being done the pin 21 of the reel 26 is placed in the hole 24 in the end support 2I and the pin 28 is positioned in the U- shaped opening in the end support 22.
Now the handle 29 and pin 28 in reel 26 may be revolved by turning the handle 29, whereupon the warp cords I9 and 20 will be wound on the reel 26 and will eventually bind thereon, whereupon the warp cords I9 and 20 will be tightly stretched between the binding posts I! and the reel 26, and the pins 30 on the reel 26 will be positioned in the slot 32 and rest against the end thereof as a means of preventing the reel 26 from turning to release the tension on the warp cords l9 and 20.
The warp cords having thus been prepared are now ready to receive a woof element 33 which is a short piece of material such as another cord or strip of fabric, which is laid across the top of the Warp cords l9 and 2B and the ends passed downwardly therefrom and then upwardly between the warp cords as illustrated in Fig. 2.
This having been done the ends of the woof are pulled so as to tightly bind the central portion of the woof 39 around the warp cords l9 and 20 whereupon the woof is slipped along the cords l9 and 20 to the binding post H. One woof after another is similarly placed on the cords l9 and 20 and slipped along the cords l9 and 20 to rest against the preceding woof, and thereby build up a long string of the warp cords and woof as de-- scribed. I I I When the space between the pests i1 and the reel 26 has been substantially filled with the woof, the wing nut and bolt 20a is loosened and the end of the warp cords l and 20 are removed from the binding post IT and then the upper end of the spring element 31 is sprung rearwardly from engagement with the pins 30, whereupon the warp cords l9 and 20 maybe pulled so as to revolve the reel 26- and release the binding of the cords l9 and 20 thereon, whereupon a length of warp cords l9 and 20 may be pulled from the balls l2 and I3 and pass through the reel 26 and again clamped in the binding posts 7 11, whereupon the reel may again be revolved to stretch the warp cords I9 and 20 as previously described, whereupon the procees of weaving the woof 33 on the warp cords l9 and 20 may be continued.
When the desired amount of material is woven as above described, the strip may be wound against itsself or placed in parallel strips which are sewed to each other to form the composite rug.
Such modifications may be employed as lie within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit and intention of the invention. Now having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a loom device, in combination, a base element, a warp cord box, a binding post having a clamp on the upper end thereof and a warp cord tightening device, said warp cord box being positioned on one end of said base board, the binding post being positioned on the other end of said base board and said warp cord tightening device being positioned on the said base board and intermediate said binding post and said warp cord box, said Warp cord tightening device comprising a reel element that is revolvably' carried in bearings on supports therefor, said reel element having a warp cord receiving slot therein, and means for revolving said reel and means for holding said reel against rotation in one direction only, said reel being removable from the said bearings for the purpose of placing and removing warp cord therein and therefrom as and for the purpose set forth.
2'. In a loom device as defined in claim 1, and a bail warp cord guide element on saidbox and in the rear of said reel for guiding warp cord in a spaced position into the warp cordslot in said reel.
