SELF-LUBRICATING SPINNING RING Filed Dec. 13,1945
Patented Feb. 1 0, 1948 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SELF-LUBRICATING SPINNING RING Harvey E. Herr, Buffalo, N. Y., assignor to Herr Manufacturing Company, 1110., Buffalo, N. Y., a corporation of New York Application December 13, 1945, Serial No. 634,679
2 Claims. 1
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in spinning rings for travelers, but more particularly to novel means for rendering such rings self-lubricating.
It has for one of its objects to provide a simple and efficient means for spot-lubricating a plurality of the traveler-engaging faces of the ring from a common source and wherein the lubrication of such faces not only insures a smoothrunning of the traveler but effects the lubrication in a clean manner and Without danger of soiling the threads being twisted.
Another object of the invention is to provide a spinning ring lubricating means which employs a novel wick arrangement for conducting the lubricant to the bearing faces of the ring and wherein such wicks are so disposed as to prevent their carbonizing.
Other features of the invention reside in the construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a top plan view of a spinning rin and traveler equipped with my improved lubricating means. Figure 2 is an enlarged cross section thereof taken on line 22, Figure 1. Figure 3 is a fragmentary horizontal section, taken on line 3-43, Figure 2. Figure 4 is a perspective view of a portion of the ring and the lubricant features thereof.
Similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
Referring now to the drawings, showing my invention in association with a well known form of ring and traveler construction, It indicates the holder which is adapted to be mounted on the traverse bar of the spinning machine, and H indicates the spinning ring applied to the holder and upon which the traveler I2 revolves. The holder may be ring-like in form with its opening adapted to receive the spinning ring in a snug or pressed fit, in the manner shown in Figure 2. Formed integrally with the holder at one side thereof is a lubricant-receiving well 14. In the example of the ring shown in the drawings, it has an inner bearing face [5 and a top bearing face I6, and it is the purpose of my. invention to effectually lubricate both these faces in a clean and efiicient manner.
For the purpose of effectually lubricating the bearing faces of the ring, the outer wall or periphery thereof, contained and enclosed within the holder, is preferably provided with an annular lubricant-receiving groove or channel II which,
jointly with the surrounding portion of the holder forms a lubricant feed chamber. This chamber communicates with the lubricant-receiving well I4 through a transverse duct l8 formed in such holder. Leading from the lubricant-receiving groove or chamber l1 and opening onto the companion traveler-engaging faces 15 and Hi are a plurality of ports l9 and 20, respectively. These ports vary in number depending upon the size of the ring, and the ports l9 lead downwardly or inwardly from the groove IT to the ring-face [5, while the ports 20 lead upwardly from this groove to the ring-face l6 and are disposed in a radially different plane from the companion ports l9. Each pair of ports i9, 20 is adapted to be fed with the lubricant from a common wick 2| whose intermediate portion is seated in the lubricantreceiving groove ll, while its opposite or free ends extend into the companion ports [9, 20 of a pair, thereby providing spot-lubricating points about the bearing faces of the ring. By way of example, three sets of ports and three separate wicks have been shown in the drawings, but more or less may be employed to meet the lubricating requirements of the ring.
By this construction, each wick serves to lubricate two adjoining bearing points in different planes about the ring and it will be further noted that only a small portion of the wick, namely, the end thereof, is exposed to the traveler, thereby preventing carbonizing of the wick. For the purpose of feeding the lubricant from the well It to the lubricant-receiving groove ll, a wick 22 may be provided which extends through the duct I claim as my invention:
1. A spinning ring, comprising a body having an annular groove in the outer face thereof constituting a lubricant-receiving chamber and having a plurality of pairs of ports leading therefrom to the traveler-engaging bearing portions of the ring, the ports of a pair being disposed in different planes, and a wick common to each pair of ports having its intermediate portion seated in said groove and its ends extending into the companion ports of a pair.
2. A device of the character described, comprising a ring-like holder having a lubricantreceiving well applied thereto and a duct leading therefrom to the inner periphery of the holderopening, a spinning ring fitted in said holderopening and having a lubricant-conducting chamber formed therein in contiguous enclosed relation to said holder and in communicating relation with said duct, said ring having a plu- 2,435,939 3 4 rality of traveler-engaging bearing faces thereon REFERENCES CITED disposed in difierent planes and pairs of ports leading from said chamber to such faces, and a wick common to each pair of ports having its The following references are of record in the file of this patent:
