Jan. 20, 1942. J. J. KLORAN YARN PACKAGE HOLDER Filed March 11, 1939 INVE INTOR James K Ioran BY ATTORNEYS Patented Jan. 20, 1942 YARN PACKAGE HOLDER James Joseph Kloran, Cumberland, Md., assignor to Celanese Corporation of America, a corporation of. Delaware :Application March 11, 1939, Serial No. 261,161
. 4 Claims.
This invention relates to textile apparatus employed for twisting and winding into package form materials such'as yarn, thread, filaments, gribbon, straw and the like (all hereinafter referred to as yarn) yandrelates more particularly toanimprovedcreel arrangement for such textile apparatus.
It is animportant object of this invention to provide a novel creelarrangement whereby the time required for dofling and dressing is substantially reduced.
Another object of this invention is the provision of improvedmeans'forhandling yarn packages, particularly yarn packages of large size, whereby contact of the yarn by the hands of the operatives is avoided thereby preventing broken filaments and soiled yarn.
Other objects and advantages of this invention, together will certain details of construction and combinations of parts, will appear from the following detailed description and claims.
In the drawing wherein the preferred embodiment of the invention is shown:
Figure 1 is a front elevational View of the improved creel arrangement, and
Figure 2 is a side elevational view, partly in section, of the same.
Like reference numerals indicate like parts throughout both views of the drawing.
Creels for twisting and winding apparatus, as heretofore commonly employed, consisted of standards mounted on the top of the machine and cross-bars, to which pins are fixed, attached to said standards. Since in this construction yarn packages are placed individually on the creel pins, they are therefore individually handled in changing from an empty package to a full one. The operatives in handling the yarn packages, particularly packages of large size, say on the order of 2 to almost 3 pounds, soil the yarn with their hands and even break the filaments thereof. In accordance with this invention means are provided for simultaneously handling a plurality of yarn packages, i. e. simultaneously doffing a plurality of yarn packages and simultaneously donning a plurality of replacements. By employing the construction of the present invention, handling of the individual yarn packages is reduced to a minimum and soiling of the yarn and breaking the filaments thereof is substantially obviated. Moreover, there results a subsbtantial reduction in the time required for doffing.
Referring now to the drawing, the reference numeral 3 indicates a standard twisting and winding machine to the top 4 of which are'fixed standards-5, onlyone of'which is shown. An arm or bracket 6 is mounted on each of thestandards and' is vertical adjustable thereon, being held in adjusted position by any suitable means as by a screw-bolt 1. The bracket is inclined somewhat away from the standard for a purpose hereinafter set forth. Angle irons 8 and 9 are fixed to the brackets "6,forming an open-bottomed trough or trough-like platform for the reception of a crate H containing a plurality of yarn packages 12.
The .crate I I, which may be formed of wood or other suitable material, comprises end walls 13, side-pieces l4 and I5, and a bottom l6,'all suitably joined together. The bottom l6 has fixed therein pins H, the number of which depends of course upon the number of yarn packages it is designed to hold. For ease of handling the crate, a bail or handle I8 is pivo-tally attached to the end walls 13. The bail may be so arranged as to act as a package retaining device to be slipped over the tops of the packages and in contact therewith.
In operation, the crate ll containing a plurality of yarn packages, five of such yarn packages being shown in the drawing, is mounted in the trough formed by angle irons 8 and 9 on the brackets B. The yarn 20 is drawn directly from packages l2 through pigtail guide I9 over rod 2! which is preferably chromium-plated. The pigtail guide I9 and the rod H are supported on an arm 22 adjustably mounted on standard 5. The inclination of the yarn packages, due to the construction of brackets 6, permits of the easy withdrawal of the yarn over the top of the package. The purpose of the bar 2| is to allow satisfactory clearance of the yarn past the crate on its way to pigtail guide 23 from which the yarn runs over an emulsion roll 24 and feed roll 25, through pigtail guide 26 and traveller 21 on to take-up bobbin 28. For the purpose of centering the crate ll, guide blocks 29 are fixed between angle irons 8 and 9.
When it'is found desirable to doff the packages, the five packages are doffed simultaneously by lifting the crate from its position in the trough by means of handle I8. Another crate containing full packages of yarn is then set in the trough. By the device of the present invention, the time of change from empty .to full packages is reduced substantially 30% and the former losses in spoile yarn are substantially eliminated.
It is to be understood that the foregoing detailed description is given merely by Way of illustration and that many variations may be made therein without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having described my invention, what I desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. An attachment for a textile machine having spaced standards, said attachment comprising brackets carried by said standards and spaced angle-irons mounted on said brackets forming a trough-like platform extending longitudinally across said textile machine, and a container within said platform, said container having spindles for supporting yarn packages, the construction and arrangement of said trough-like platform being such that the container may be read' ily and easily placed in position thereon and removed therefrom, and held against transverse movement while on said platform without the container being positively attached thereto.
2. An attachment for a textile machine having spaced standards, said attachment comprising brackets adjustably carried by said standards and spaced angle-irons mounted on said brackets forming a trough-like platform extending longitudinally across said textile machine, and a container within said platform, said container having spindles for supporting yarn packages, the construction and arrangement of said trough-like platform being such that the container may be readily and easily placed in position thereon and removed therefrom, and held against transverse movement while on said platform without the container being positively attached thereto.
3. An attachment for a textile machine having spaced standards, said attachment comprising inclined brackets adjustably carried by said standards, spaced angle-irons mounted on said brackets forming a trough-like platform extending longitudinally across said textile machine, and a container within said platform, said container having spindles for supporting yarn packages, the construction and arrangement of said trough-like platform being such that the container may be readily and easily placed in position thereon and removed therefrom, and held against transverse movement While on said platform without, the container being positively attached thereto, and means on said platform for preventing lengthwise movement of said container.
4. An attachment for a textile machine having spaced standards, said attachment comprising inclined brackets adjustably carried by said standards, spaced angle-irons mounted on said brackets forming a trough-like platform extending longitudinally across said textile machine, and a container Within said platform, said container having spindles for supporting yarn packages, the construction and arrangement of said trough-like platform being such that the container may be readily and easily placed in position thereon and removed therefrom, and held against transverse movement while on said platform without the container being positively attached thereto, and blocks fixed to said platform for preventing lengthwise movement of said container.
