Definitions

  • This invention relates to a new type of support and spacer for bobbins for textile fibers, filaments, yarns or cloth wound in the form of cheeses, cakes, cones, spools, rolls, etc. More particularly, it deals with supports and spacers for flexible bobbins, such as for example the type decribed in my U. S. A. Patent No. 2,158,889, issued May 16, 1939 and in my copending application S. N. 213,251, filed February 28, 1951, and now Patent No. 2,614,764 of October 21, 1952. These supports and spacers are employed for centering and spacing spools mounted in columns for the fluid treatment of the textiles wound on said spools, such as for example, for the dyeing of the textile filaments and/or fibers.
  • bobbins of nylon and rayon threads or yarns become hard during fluid treatment due to their inherent elasticity and swelling in the presence of humidity. This contraction often deforms the bobbins upon which these yarns are wound. Also bobbins for fine threads which are only wound to spools of a relatively small outside diameter, belly in and/or out along their length when longitudinally compressed for fluid treatment. These deformations materially aflect the uniformity of the fluid treatment and the amount of the color taken up by the yarns when being dyed.
  • Another object is to produce such a support and spacer which prevents the treating fluid from flowing between adjacent spools of yarn when stacked in columns, and directs the fluid through the threads, insuring their uniform treatment.
  • the support and spacer for the porous bobbins comprises an annular plate with an outer peripheral flange forming a type of annular trough into which the end of a bobbin fits, and a perforated preferably cylindrical sleeve attached at one end to the inner edge of said annular plate and extending in the same direction as the flange, for a greater axial distance than said flange, and preferably at least almost half the length of the bobbin for which the sup port is to be used.
  • abutting pairs of these spacer supports may be joined together with their annular plates back to back to form unit pairs.
  • spacer supports are adapted to be placed inside each end of a flexible bobbin and then they are strung with the bobbins on a perforated tube to form a column of spools. This column may then be compressed until the outer ends of the perforated cylindrical portions of the supports touch each other, which can be the predetermined limit of compression for the spools being treated, beyond which limit the spools become too hard.
  • the outer diameter of said cylindrical portions of the supports may be sufliciently smaller than the inside diameter of the flexible bobbins to permit contraction of the bobbins and loosening of the center threads in the bobbins; and the inner diameter of said cylindrical portions preferably are just sufficiently large enough to slide easily over a perforated tube acting as the axis for the column of spools through which tube the treating fluids pass.
  • Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section of a unit pair of the support and spacer members according to one embodiment of this invention
  • Fig. 2 is a section taken along line II-II in Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a vertical section of the ends of a column of spools of yarn wound on flexible bobbins supported and spaced by the members shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and strung on a perforated tube ready for fluid treatment.
  • the annular plate 5 may be provided with an integral up-turned outer peripheral flange 1 perpendicular to said plate and forming a cylindrical ring around said plate.
  • a perforated cylinder 3 Around the inner diameter of the plate is mounted, such as by soldering or preferably welding, one end of a perforated cylinder 3, having perforation slots 6 extending from the plate 5 to short of the outer end of the cylinder where there is formed a continuous ring 7.
  • the end of this cylindrical portion 3 may be provided with an outward radially extending flange 4 to facilitate its attachment to the plate 5.
  • Such comprises the half of the unit pair of supports shown in Fig. 1 or the support 11' shown in Fig. 3 used at the ends of the column. As seenin Fig.
  • the cylindrical portion 3 of this embodiment has a length of less than half the length of a bobbin 13 to permit longitudinal compression of the bobbin.
  • pairs of abutting spacer supports 11 may be joined together, such as by solder or preferably welding, to form a unit pair as shown in Fig. l, which joint also prevents treating fluids from passing between the abutting plates 5 and between the spools in the column thereby directing the fluid into the threads of the spools.
  • Fig. 3 the supports and spacers of this invention are shown in use in a column of spools ready for fluid treatment, which spools are wound on flexible porous bobbins of the type mentioned in the above cited Annicq patent.
  • These bobbins are fitted over the supports 11 and 11 with the ends of the bobbins fitting in the annular channels formed between the perforated cylindrical portions 3 and the cylindrical flanges 1.
  • the supports 11 and 11' are then strung along a perforated tube 10 with the single supports 11' at each end to complete the column.
  • the center or axis tube 10 for the column may be provided with numerous holes 19 which permit the treating fluid to flow through them and then through the apertures 6 in the supports 11 and 11.
  • the lower end of the tube 10 is shown to be exteriorly threaded for clamping in one wall of a fluid conducting channel 18.
  • the other or upper end of the tube 10 is shown herein to be threaded interiorly for axially or longitudinally adjusting the threaded disk 17, which supports the upwardly projecting threaded rod 16.
  • a cap and plate member 14 Over the top of the tube 10 is placed a cap and plate member 14, which has a central hole for the rod 16, so that a nut 15 may be threaded on said rod 16 above said cap to press the top plate down to compress the spools 12 of yarn in the column until the supports 11 and 11' have their outer cylindrical ends 7 substantially touching each other as shown.
  • the nut 15 also thus maintains the spools compressed during their fluid treatment.
  • the outside diameters of the cylindrical portions 3 of the supports 11 and 11 are sufiiciently smaller than the inside diameters of the bobbins 13, so that they may be put on the bobbins easily and will permit a limited amount of radial contraction of the bobbins 13.
  • the inside diameters of the supports 11 and 11' are only sufliciently larger than the outside diameter of the tube 10, so that they may be strung on the tube 10 and yet not permit side-play to cause unalignment of the supports, bobbins and spools.
  • the treating fluid such as a dyeing solution, may pass through the channel 18, tube 10, perforations 19 and 6, the links of the bobbins 13 and uniformly around the threads of the spools, without being chanelled through some parts of the spools more than-others.
  • spacer of a unitpair may be replaced by aperforated frustm cone having a lengthonly slightly IeSs-than that-Oi 't he frusto-conical bobbin itself,--while the lower half of the cylindrical portion 3 'below'the plate'S, may be replaced by a short cylindrical sleeveofsmaller'. diameter for cooperation with the smaller end of the conical-portion'of the next adjacent spacer support in the column.
  • spacer-supports ofthis invention are simple, and cheap to make in that they may be punched out of sheet material or from sheet material and-tube-sto'ck, and then soldered or welded together.
  • the sheetmaterial is preferably anon-corrosive metal-, such as stainless steel, which although initially slightly more expensive than other material, more than compensates for this- -cost-byits' durability and longlife in-use.
  • the spacer supports ofthisinvention alsomay be used advantageously for any type of longitudinally and/or axiallyflex-ible bobbins upon which any kind ofifilament or spun yarn may be wound, artificial or-natural, such as nylon, rayon, fibro, cotton;- linen, wool, etc., whether such yarn contracts, stretches or deforms or'not during winding and/or fluid treatment.
  • a metal bobbin-support comprising apair of axially aligned adjacent cylindrical tubular sections, each-said section having an integral radially extending flange projecting outwardly around the adjacent inner ends of said sections, said flanges having circular peripheral edges,
  • annular ring plate means parallel with and attached to and between the adjacent outer annular faces of said adjacent radially extending flanges, said annular ringplate means having a cylindrical peripheral flange perpendicular to the plane of said ring and concentric with and extendingin the same direction as said tubular sections on both sides of said ring, said cylindrical flange being adjacentto and covering said peripheral edges of both said radially extending flanges.
  • said ring plate means comprises a pair of ring plates, with the adjacent faces of said ring platesopposite said flanges being fastened together, and wherein said cylindrical peripheral flange is circumferentially divided between said pair of plates with half of said flange being attached to each of said plates.
