Patented Apr. 17, 1951 UNITED STATES OFFICE STOPPING MEANS FOR LOOMS Application April 1, 1947, Serial No. 738,652
1 Claim.
This invention relates to an attachment for use on a modern loom. It has for its main object to improve the general efliciency of the loom so that it will produce more and better cloth. It is intended especially to increase the efficiency of the shuttle, woof or filling looping on the filling fork, reduce lint accumulation on the rack, and simplify the structure by eliminating some parts that are more inclined to become clogged with Other objects and advantages will appear from the drawing and description.
By referring to the drawing, part of this application, it will be observed that Fig. 1 is a plan view of a bracket now generally used on a loom with the present attachment main member thereon; Fig. 2 is a side view of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is an enlarged plan View of the coacting bracket plate that is used with the main member; Fig. 4 is an edge view of Fig. 3; Fig. 5 is a detail view of the main feature of the attachment; Fig. 6 is a side the rubber block, and plate piece 4. The screws may be used with or without nuts. If no nuts are used the holes in the plate are threaded. The swingable arm or prong is provided with a coil spring 5 adapted when at rest to retain the arm in the position as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The arm is mounted on a shaft 6 that is carried in the forked end of the bracket 1 that is a regular standard part of a textile machine. On the same shaft with the swingable arm supporting the rubber pad or block there is mounted the wire swingable prong 8. This wire member along with the rubber block arm replaces the ordinary swingable arms or prongs that are now in general use on automatic looms. The coacting bracket plate member 9 is attached to the shipper end of the loom (not shown) and is positioned so that its face portion Ill registers flat against .the edge face I I of the rubber block as the loom operates. The surface of the face portion In of the bracket plate is slightly larger than the area of the block edge face ll. They make contact on each complete movement when the loom is in operation.
From the foregoing it will appear that in order to use the present invention the swingable arm or prong with the rubber block attached and the wire arm or prong are inserted in the fork of the regular bracket in place of the plurality of wire prongs that are now generally used on looms. The companion bracket plate is attached on the shipper end instead of the three opening type now in general use. When the bracket plate is thus attached it is positioned for its flat face to register intermittently adjacent the edge face of the rubber block when the loom is in operation, and at the same time permit the wire swinging arm or prong to clear the end of the plate. In this operation the rubber block clamps the woof between the block edge face and the plate face.
The parts of the present invention maybe made of any material suitable for the purpose, but we prefer to use metal and rubber. Also the various parts may be made of different sizes.
While we have shown and described the preferred embodiment of our invention, we do not wish to limit same to the exact and precise details of structure, but reserve the right to make all modifications and changes so long as they remain within the spirit and scope of the following claim.
Having described our invention, we claim:
In parts of a loom comprising a supporting bracket, an arm substantially L-shaped mounted swingable in one end of the bracket, a rubber block attached to one end portion of the swingable arm, a shaft supported in the said bracket, the said swingable arm mounted on the said shaft, a coil spring with one end thereof attached to the free end of the arm having the rubber block on its other end, the other end of the spring attached to the body of the bracket, said spring set to normally retain the rubber block at an angle of approximately to degrees to the major axis of the bracket; a loom bracket plate, said plate and one edge of the rubber block adapted to register adjacent each other when in position for use on a loom.
