Definitions

  • This invention has reference to machines for winding threads or the like and more particularly to those machines of the kind in which the thread or the like is drawn off a package or container mounted on the machine below a bobbin mounted horizontally above and rotated by a driving roller on which the bobbin rests and on which the thread wound on it rests as the bobbin is filled.
  • a machine of the kind referred to for winding threads or the like is provided with a weight resting on the top bobbin and on the thread wound on it which weight is mounted on an arm of a bell-crank lever pivoted on an axis parallel with the bobbin axis and counterweighted so that as the bobbin fills the weight applied is automatically reduced and toward the end removed, whereby the total weight on the roller winding the top bobbin is kept substantially constant through the winding operation.
  • Fig. l is a front view of a bobbin mounting provided with tension-regulating means according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a section on the line 11-11 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.
  • the bobbin 3 is mounted horizontally with its flanges 4 overlapping the sides of a friction driving roller 5 below.
  • the bobbin rotates on a detachable spindle 6 whose ends are received in slots 7 formed in brackets 8 which are secured firmly on a shaft 9 running behind and above the friction roller.
  • the thread or cord 10 is fed to the bobbin over a guide 11 mounted on a traverse bar 12 which moves the guide to and fro in front of the bobbin.
  • a rod 13 mounted through the arms of the brackets 8 in front of the shaft 9 and parallel to it, is a rod 13 on which, between the brackets a bell-crank lever 14 is pivoted.
  • One limb or" this lever projects upwardly and comprises two projections 15 and a weight 16 supported on arms 17 adjustably secured by set screws in the projections; and the other limb of the lever projects forwardly towards the bobbin and carries a weight in the form of a roller 18 which rests on the bobbin.
  • the roller rotates on ball races (not shown) between the arms of a supporting member 19, and is free to turn one way or the other wiLhin limits to accommodate itself to the surface of the bobbin; to this end the supporting member 19 has a spigot 20 which enters the socket of a boss 21 constituting the forward limb of the bell-crank lever, and is retained in the socket by a screw 22 which, when tightened up, projects into a short peripheral groove 23 in the spigot.
  • the pressure is automatically reduced in this manner as the package gradually increases in weight and diameter, until the turning moment of weight 16 is sufiicient to overcome the counter-moment of the weighting roller, whereupon the arms 17 fall back against the shaft 9 and lift the roller clear of the package, which, for the final stage of winding, has its own weight only on the friction roller below.
  • the total pressure on the friction roller can be kept more or less constant throughout; and the control may be adjusted by adjusting the position of .weight 16 relative to the bell-crank lever pivot.
  • a winding apparatus comprising in combination, driving roller means mounted for rotation about its axis; a rotatable bobbin resting on and rotated by said driving roller means for winding elongated flexible thread material on said bobbin during rotation thereof, the elongated flexible thread material being adapted to pass between said driving roller means and said rotatable bobbin in contact therewith; and weight means comprising a bellcrank lever having a weighting roller on one end thereof resting on said rotatable bobbin and a counterweight member at the other end thereof, said bell-crank lever being pivotally mounted adjacent to said bobbin for turn.- ing about an axis outside the center of gravity of said weighting roller, said bell-crank lever pivoting about its pivot axis as said weighting roller is.
  • a winding apparatus comprising in combination, movable driving means; a rotatable bobbin resting on and rotated by said movable driving means for winding elongated flexible thread material on said bobbin during rotation thereof, the elongated flexible thread material being adapted to pass between said movable driving means and said rotatable bobbin in contact therewith; and weight means comprising a bell-crank lever having a weighting roller on one end thereof resting on said rotatable bobbin and a counterweight member at the other end thereof, said bell-crank lever being pivotally mounted adjacent to said bobbin for turning about an axis outside the center of gravity of said weighting roller, said counterweight member being adjustable towards and away from said pivot axis, said bell-crank 3.
