This invention relates to spinning frames, more especially of the type used in' cotton spinning,v
and it has for its general object to efiect economi'es in the manufacture and use of machines of this type.
More specific objects of the invention are to reduce the floor space required by a spinning frame" to the end of reducing the overhead expense involved in the spinning operation, and to facilitate the servicing which any spinning frame requires; especially that involved in replacing empty roving bobbins, piecing up, and similar operations.
An analysis of the labor costs in a cotton spinning room shows that a surprisingly high proportion of such costs is-for cleaning. In some mills this proportion will run as high as forty percent. of the entireoperating cost. Cleaning is important primarily from the standpoint of quality of the product manufactured. Or, to state the matter differently, if the spinning frames are not kept clean of lint and fly a notice able drop in quality occurs. This fact is well known in the industry and it is the controlling reason for the expenditure of so much time and pains in keeping the machines clean.
Accordingly; a further important object of this invention is to devise a spinning frame which, in avery substantial measure, will keepv itself clean.
The nature of the invention. will be readily understood from the following description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, and the novel features will be particularly pointed out in the appendedclaims.
In; the drawings,
Fig. l is a plan view of a portion of. a spinning frame constructed in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 72' is a side elevation of that part of the machine shown in Fig. 1.;
Fig. 3 is a verticaLsectional view approximately on the line 3-3, Fig. l; 1
Fig. 4 is-ahorizontal section, the plane of section being taken just above the bobbin whorls;
Fig. 5 is a. perspective view of a portionof a, spinning, frame at the tail. end of. the machine showing a preferred method. of enclosing the mechanism inthe machine base; and
. Fig. 6 is a view, partly in side elevation and partly in vertical section showing a detail of construction of the thread board.
Referring first to Figs. 2 and 3, a spinning, frame is thereshown ofa type disclosed in an. earlier application ofmine, now issued as Patent No; 2,295,935. Thismachine comprises sectional units secured end to end, each unit being. substantially a complete spinning machine except for a driving mechanism. As illustrated, each section includes two lines of spindles 2 mounted at opposite sides of the frame, each spindle be.- ingadapted to support a bobbin, and all thespindles being driven by bands or tapes which, in.
turn, are driven from. a central cylinder 3, 3 Cooperating, with the respective. lines of spindles are the usual rings mounted on ring rails 4-, thread boards 55, and two rows of sets of draw ing rolls 66 which draw. strands of roving fromv the supply bobbins and feed them laterally to the two lines of spindles.
So far as this' general arrangement of the parts or mechanisms mentioned is concerned, the
machine 'isessentially like those already known.
In prior art constructions it. has been the uni.- versal practice to mount. a creel for supporting the supply bobbins between the lines of drawing. rolls atopposite sides of the frame. Usually the creel board is positioned on and. between the roller beams on which the roll stands, are mounted, and the lowest lines, rows, or tiers of roving. bobbins are about on a level with the drawing,
rolls. Above these. lower tiers there usually are one or more additional tiers of bobbins. Such an arrangement necessarily, increases the width offthe frame by a distance equal to the width of the creel. Usuall the first story of the creel stand is designed to, accommodate four longitudinal'rows of bobbins, and. if double roving is to be run, then the creel must include a second story accommodating four more row of bobbins. With this arrangement it is not easy for an operator of average height and reach to replace an empty bobbin with a full one and to piece up. One of the objects of this invention, therefore,
is to devise novel spinning frame and creel structures' which will facilitate these operations.
It will be seen from an inspection of' Fig. 3 that in the spinning frame provided by this inventionthe creel is positioned above the machine, the lower story of roving bobbins, B consisting simply of two rows or tiers mounted directly over their respective rows of drawing rolls 6 and spaced from them only by a distance suflicient. for convenience in piecing up and performing the servicing operations.
Attention is particularly directed to the fact that this i e-arrangement. permits a reductionin the width of the frame to about half that of" the present commercial constructions, due chiefly to OFFICE rows of drawing roll sets, the positioning of these rolls back to back, and the reduction of the space between them to a distance less than the normal diameter of a full roving bobbin, or, in other words, to a distance less than the overall lateral width of either of said rows of drawing roll sets, as will be evident from an inspection of Fig. 3. Also, by.mounting the, creel substantially as shown, the lower ends of the lowermost bobbins may be positioned below the shoulder level of a person of average height so that all of the bobbins in the creel then are within convenient reach. Moreover, since the bobbins are above or directly over the drawing rolls instead of behind them,
an operator standing at either side of the machine is within easy reaching distance of all of the bob:- bins for that side.
The creel structure itself is of skeleton form and will be best understood from the detailed description and illustration thereof contained in my application Ser. No. 402,581, of which the present'case is adivision. For present purposes it is sufficient to point out that the creel structure preferably is made in sections corresponding to the sectional units of which the machine is composed. That portion of the creel for the extreme left-hand section shown in Figs. 1 and 2 comprises two upright posts 1 and 8 mounted at opposite ends'of the section, and a horizontal bar 10 supported on them. Extending through this bar are several cross bars, two of which are relatively short and are shown at l I, the others, indicated at l2, being considerably longer. Some of the bobbins are suspended from'these bars, while'others are supported in standing positions on them.
It should also be observed that the bars and rods which form the structural elements of the creel are all made of circular cross-section so that they present no flat horizontal surfaces on which "lint and fly can lodge. On the contrary, these surfaces are so curved or sloped that they naturally I, shed material of this nature and the creel therefore keeps itself clean at practically all times. Thus the labor of cleaning the creel is substantially eliminated. I have found that the labor of cleaning may further be reduced very materially by covering the space between the lines cfs'pindles with'some kind of a smooth surfaced plate such as that shown at 36 in Figs. 3, 4 and 5. Preferably; also, the entire base of the machine is enclosed by side plates 37 and additional plates, such'as shown at 38 or 39, where required at an end of the frame. Each of the side plates 31 includes a supplemental plate 31' of approximately L-section secured to its respective plates 31 by a pia o t pe hi ge so that it may be swung outwardly to expose the whorls when desired. The margins of the top plate 36 rest on the inner margins of the curved plates v31, the three sets of plates being notched, as shown at 4B in Fig. 5, to fit around the spindles. Normally the plate 35 is'held in its operative position by pins or screws so that they may be quickly taken out to permit its removal whenever desired. The abutting edges of adjoining side plates may be covered by strips such as those shown at 4 l 7 With a construction of this nature I have found that'the lint and flywhich naturally tends to settle down between the lines of spindles is prevented from actually coming to rest in this space by the air currents created by the rotary motion of the bobbins and spindles. In Fig. 4 the arrows indicate, in a general way, what I believe to be the paths taken by these currents of air. There is a down draft from overhead through and around the drawing rolls and the thread boards which naturally tends to carry lint into the space between the rows of spindles, but the whole body of air in said space is in motion and the air currents have ample velocity to prevent the lint from depositing on the smooth upper surface of the plate 36 which, while adapted to catch it, is not allowed to do so. Contributing to this result is the fact that the frame. is exceptionally narrow due to the removal of the creel from between the two rows or lines of drawing rolls into a position above them. and the whole space from the creelto the plate 36 is open sufficiently for the down flow of air which will carry with it particles of lint and fly substantially as fast as theyare shed by the bobbins and by the strands passing through the drawing rolls. The air currents relied upon to keep the plate 36 clean are the result-of centrifugal action due to the rotative motion of the bobbins. They apparently throw air away from the frame at opposite sides and thus draw air from overhead down through the space between the rows of spindles. Naturally these air currents are more effective in a narrow space than they would be in a wide one. In this machine the frame has'a maximum width of two ieet'and the two lines of spindles are sixteen inches apart. "While this dimension can be Varied, itis preferable to keep it within eighteen inches.
"Since the-creel and the cover plate 36 remain clean indefinitely, due to the causes above described, the greater part of the necessity for cleaning this frame is eliminated and the labor involved is correspondingly reduced. I
In addition to contributing to the object of maintaining the frame clean, as above described, the narrow frame also hasthe very important advantage of occupying only about half the floor space that is required by the spinning frames now in common use. 1 Every square foot of space in a mill translates itself into a certain fraction of the overhead cost of the product manufactured by that mill. Consequently, such a saving in floor space as that just mentioned is a substantial practical advantage, A further advantage of the creel structure is the fact that it can be manufactured very economically.
The thread. board above referred to is made in sections individual to the respective sections of the spinning frame. Each section comprises a bar 5 of circular cross-sectional form supporting a series of lappets. Each of the lappets also is of novel form and includes a thread guide 43, Fig. 6, which mayconveniently be made of wire twisted at one end to form the usual pig-tail eye. The shank of. this guide extends through a hole formed. to receive it in a bushing 34 and it is locked adjustably therein by a set screw 45. A sleeve 46 encirclin the rod 4 and locked thereon by a set screw 41, supports -the bushing 44 for rotative movement around the bar, and the bushing is slotted throughout aportion of its circumferential extent to receive the set screw 47. For
- a more detailed illustration and description of this thread board structure reference should be made to the parent application above referred to.
bodiment in other forms without departing from the spirit or scope thereof.
This is a division of my copending application Ser. No. 402,581, filed July 16, 1941. The claims of this case are limited to those features relied upon to prevent the accumulations of lint and fly in the machine or, in other words, to keep the machine clean. These features are not claimed in the parent application. The thread board features above described are not claimed in this application but are claimed in applicants co-pending application Ser.
