Description
Aug. 17, 1943. R. 5. TURNER PNEUMATIC THREAD HOLDER FOR LOOMS Fil ed Feb.' 27, 1943 [wt/enter jab/741'; @firwez is provided with the usual transfer latch 42 for engagement with the hunter 43,011 the lay. The
' latchis ordinarily in its'downinoperative position as shown in Fig.- 1.and the transferrerarm is raised. Whenever a replenishing operationof the 100111 occurs, the latch-.42 is raised by well-;; known mechanism not shown into the path offfa ,lay carried bunter 43 and the 'transferrer arm- V Communicating with and depending from the part 5010f the intalge'mouth is a narrow slot 55 is givena downward motionas the lay-moves forwardly. During transfer the transierrerarni will engage the lowest bobbin in the stack which 11 is in transfer position. As shown in Fig. 1, the :1
front stack 31 is in transfer position so that'its lowest bobbin is in the path of the transferrerfarm and will be inserted into a shuttle S on the lay. The] magazine can, however, be roclied by 'mechanism'designated' generally at {M to place the lowest bobbin, in the-rear' stackjfl under the transferrer arm;
j Asshown in Fig. 2 the-bobbinsBare each pro- I vided with weft endsiwwhich extend away from the magazine toward fa threadholder designated generally atjH. As shown in Fig. 2 the lowest bobbin B of the stack 31 hasits weft endf-W' at the bottomof the group of weft threadsassociated with the bobbins in the magazine.
When this bobbin istransferred into "the shuttle S it'will move downwardlyto the position.
indicated at W2 in Fig.2 and the weft Will -then 4 separated from the aforesaid'group. ofthreads 'fafnd"may extendjupwardly toward the thread 7 holder asfsho'wh in Fig.2. All of the weft ends extend into fthe previously described tube is. and become wrapped arou'nd'the rod 2| to form.
a; yarn mass Y as indicated in, Fig; "3;. 'lfhismass V of yarn serves as an ancho'rage for theweft'ends. U and operates in addition to the pneumatic pres- 'sur'e'oi the .threadholdento hold thethreads in tube 29. 'Onjsome piok subsequent to transfer the thread of "theireshly transferred bobbin small-"enor gh to add very little 'to the crosssectionalarea 0f the intake mouth but wide enough to. receive a single thread. As the bot- .tom of the lowestgbobbin of the stack in'transi'er lpositiondisdmoved' from the magazine into the shuttle itsthread will descend as suggested at W2 ingEig 2 and.will enter the narrow slot 55 and 136001118 omp letely detached fromthe group of threads in the'uppe'r wider:- part 53 of the intake mouth. This thread W2 will extend to the right end oi1tube"29 as shown in Fig. 5 and will be in contact; with the otherflthreads of the thread holder, but it will be seen that the thread W2 extendsacro'ss the 'streainfof air-passing in the 'plete1y'into the cylinder 24.
i mphepasea has been customary to; form-the intakejrno'ut'h in a substantiallycircular form, but because of theLreqUirement that ;itbe as small 'as l-"p ossible' in orderto' insure-an adequately high: rate ,-of airflow through the tube 29, the thread oftheti'ansferredbobbin has not beenable to detach-itself sufficiently from the other threads. shown herein; howeve the narrow slot 55 enables the thread er, thetrans- 'ferring bobbin to detachitselffrom the group 7 'withoutiadding materially to the'cross-sectional .w ill be cutat'theadjacent selvage notshown andwill be freeyto' respond to .anyf'pneuniatic I ;The'matterthus far described; except as noted I hereinaftenf may 'be of usual constructionas set forth inuny'prior Patents 'Nos] 2,199,353 "and 2,199,354." j 1 f It will beapparent' from Fig'. Z'that the group of threads W lead downwardly from theirflref'v spective bobbins to the thread tube ZS-andare therefore-likely to extend along the "upperpart ly'and toward the magazine as shown in Fig.t5, so that the several ends willbe distributed as in'-- dicated in fltheupper part of 4 andflocated' I? in therelatively wide upper end of-the; in

As the thra'dsjenter the left end of the tubefn' they will be held more or less inspaced relationwith respect to each other but are likely toi-be "cluste'red together as indicated at 52 atf'the right '.end of the tube 29 as viewedin-Fig. 5 when' 'pass ing. out of the tube toward th'einterior ofthe' [cylinder 24: When the weft ends" are'of l'argediameter and soft theypack into and tend to stick' tojeach other. It should-be notedlthatthe threads "of the 'highest'bobbins f in the magazinev are likely to engage the" upper part of thetube 2.9 near its intake mouth orjat theleft endof Fig 5, but as thebobbins descend in the rnagazine' their weft ends become frnore and more nearly hgrizont'al and becoine detached from the massof threads at the-top of the tube 29 as they. move downwardly into the part. v5!.
