Description

- 7, 9 w. BARRACLOUGH ErAL' 2,757,885
TUBES FOR CARRYING YARN FOR WEAVING FROM SHUTTLES Filed July 26, 1951 f/lf/ v m g m w United States Patent TUBES FOR CARRYING YARN FOR WEAVING FROM SHUTTLES William Barraclough and Jack Butterfield, Bradford, England Application July 26, 1951, Serial No. 238,740 1 (Cl. 242-161) This invention relates to tubes for carrying yarn for weaving from shuttles particularly to parallel tubes which will carry a cheese of cross-wound yarn, and the object of the invention is to provide a new or improved construction of parallel tube which will enable a cross-wound cheese of yarn to be inserted in a shuttle and the yarn successfully Withdrawn therefrom during weaving.
According to the invention the tube is provided with a ferrule, disc or annular flange on or adjacent the end of the tube from which the yarn is drawn off during weaving. The other end of the tube will also be provided with a ferrule, disc or annular flange which acts as a suitable securing means for retaining the tube on the shuttle peg in the shuttle in a suitable weaving position.
The tube will be of paper, cardboard or like material whilst the annular flange, disc or ferrule may be of metal, plastic or other solid substance formed or secured thereon, or the tube and flanges may be formed in one piece.
By being able to use a cheese of yarn in a shuttle, the amount of yarn carried in the shuttle is greatly increased with the result-that the amount of cloth which can be woven before the shuttle needs replenishment is greatly increased and the number of shuttle changes reduced.
One form of the invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawing, wherein Figure 1 shows a tube according to the invention in position in a shuttle and Figure 2 is a longitudinal section through the tube.
In the drawing there is shown a parallel paper tube 1 upon which weft yarn is cross-wound in the form of a cheese 2. Both ends of the tube from either of which Weft can be drawn, are provided with a ferrule 3 having annular flange or disc 4 of larger diameter than the diameter Patented Aug. 7, 1956 of the tube and this flange or disc acts as a guide and obviates drag so as to facilitate the passage of the yarn when being withdrawn from the cheese. As shown, the flanges are identical and each is relatively thin and has its yarn engaging outer periphery smoothly curved to avoid breaking the yarn as it moves thereby.
The ferrule 3 can be fixed on the tube in any suitable fashion such as that shown in the drawing and as the tube has a flange at each end it may be necessary to modify the securing catch in the shuttle which holds the tube on the shuttle peg. In Fig. 1 the flange 4 at one end is shown as engaging in a slot 5 in the shuttle for this purpose.
We claim:
A yarn package for a weaving shuttle having a package receiving opening therein and means adjacent one end of said opening for securing the package therein, comprising an elongated tube, a ferrule secured to each end of said tube, each of said ferrules having an annular flange extending outwardly therefrom, said tube being uniform in diameter, said flanges being similar and of a diameter greater than said tube, a cheese of yarn parallel cross Wound on said tube between said ferrules so that it can be drawn off from either end of said tube, said flanges being thin and having their outer peripheries smoothly curved, the curved periphery of each flange being spaced from the adjacent end of said cheese, the arrangement of said ferrules and said cheese on said tube being such that said package may be received within a shuttle opening with either flange engaged within the package securing means of a shuttle and the other serving as a yarn engaging guide to obviate drag and facilitate the unwinding of said cheese.
