ORSON W. DODSON, OF HENDERSON, TEXAS.
CLOTH-MEASURING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 230,757, dated August 3, 1880.
Application filed May 12, 1880. (N0 model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ORSON W. DODSON, of Henderson, in the county of Rusk and State of Texas, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Cloth-Measuring Machines; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawings is a representation of a vertical section of my improved measuring-machine. Fig. 2 is a top "iew of the same; and Figs. 8 and 4 are details.
This invention has relation to improvements in the cloth-measurin g machine for which Letters Patent of the United States dated January 20, 1880, and numbered 223,716, were granted to me; and the nature of the invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In the annexed drawings, A is the frame of the machine, having, low down at one end, the inclined slots B, to serve as bearings for the rod C, which is designed to be passed through the center of the roll of bagging or cloth.
E is a spindle of tapering form, that is split longitudinally from its reduced end nearly to its butt, as indicated in Fig. 3 at t, and is journaled in oblique slots in the upper part of the frame. In the cleft of this spindle is passed, if desired, a board, m, upon which the bagging or cloth is wound up, the ends of the said spindle being then pressed together to clamp the said board in the cleft,and a cap,0, passed over the end thereof, as shown.
The spindle E has recesses F, in which are pivoted the points f, which may beturned out at right angles with the axis of the spindle, so that the end of the cloth or bagging may be caught upon them and held while the said material is being wound thereon.
The measuring-cylinder H, with its points I, teeth M J, and click-spring K, are the same in construction and operation as described in my former Letters Patent, as is also the graduated toothed registering-wheel L hence I do not further describe them herein.
Between the rod 0 and the measuring-roller H are arranged the tension-rollers N 0, situated the one above the other, and parallel but not in the same plane.
The cloth on spindle (J is passed over roller N, then down under roller 0, and having been drawn over the measuring-cylinder H is secured to the spindle E by means of the points f1 In unrolling the cloth the rollers NO hold it properly tense and cause the quantity unrolled to be accurately measured.
As shown in Fig. 1, the roller N is nearly directly over the spindle U, and tension produced in connection with the roller 0 tends to draw it out of its bearings. This is prevented by means of the vibrating latches Q, pivoted to the sides of the main frame, above the said spindle, and adapted to swing, with their notched ends, into engagement with the journal ends of the said bar.
WVhen the goods are wound up upon boards I employ short journal-arms R, having shouldered screw-threaded ends 1', screwed into the ends of the said board, as indicated in Fig. 2. These, being seated in the slots 13, serve as very eiTective journal-arms.
To remove the'cloth on the spindle E the cap is drawn off, the roll upended, and the reduced end of the spindle brought sharply down on the ground. The jar starts the roll, which may then be conveniently dropped.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
In a cloth-measuring machine, the windingspindle E, having recesses F, and the points 7, vibrating therein, the longitudinal springing cleft t, formed in said spindle, adapted to receive a board, m, and the removable cap 0, fitting over the reduced end of the spindle to clamp the board in said cleft, as shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
ORSON W. DODSON.
