Wild & Co., Richterswil, Switzerland, a corporation of Switzerland Application November 9, 1954, Serial No. 467,859
Claims priority, application Switzerland October 8, 1954 4 Claims. (Cl. 28-1) There are various hand apparatus which have to be continually reciprocated by the user, thus tiring his hand, wrist and arm.
Let us take as an example the marking apparatus which is frequently used in the textile industry, and with which marks in the form of threads are applied to the edge of a continuously moving fabric. Apparatus of this type often weigh 750 grams and not only must they be held, advanced and withdrawn by hand at the correct height in relation to the fabric edge, but in addition to their actual operation they demand the expenditure of still more effort every time the marking thread has to be applied and knotted.
To make this work easier and to relieve the hand of the person performing it, the present invention envisages the incorporation of a reciprocatable slide in a rectilinear guide, which slide possesses means to hold the hand apparatus concerned.
This extremely simple solution, which relieves the hand of the apparatus weight, can be supplemented by making electrically or pneumatically controlled members operate the advance and withdrawal of the slide together with the hand apparatus, or operate the said apparatus automatically.
The attached drawing shows two typical embodiments of the object of the invention.
Fig. 1 illustrates the attachment according to the first embodiment, without separate drive.
Fig. 2 shows the same attachment with the hand apparatus mounted on it.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section, showing the positions occupied by the hand apparatus in use.
Figs. 4 to 6 are two illustrations and one section respectively and refer to the second embodiment with an electro-magnetic drive.
The attachment according to the first embodiment, which is illustrated in Fig. 1 and the perspective of which is inclined forwards a little in order to reveal the inside more clearly, consists of a sheet metal, through-like, profiled guide 1 in which a suitable profiled plate 2, designed as a slide, can reciprocate in a longitudinal direction.
This plate has a hook 3 and a clamp 4 which serve to hold a predetermined hand apparatus and must in every case be adapted to the apparatus concerned.
The guide 1 may be attached to a base of its own, or also to a suitable part of e. g. a cloth examining machine or a loom.
Fig. 2 shows how a hand apparatus 5 can be mounted on the clamping slide and advanced or withdrawn together with the latter in the direction of the arrows 6 and 7 respectively.
The hand apparatus illustrated corresponds to the marking apparatus already mentioned as an example and serves to arrange threads on the edge 8 of a fabric which moves past the user in the direction of arrow 9 and has to be checked.
To mark this edge, the apparatus 5 is advanced in the direction of arrow 6 until the edge 8 of the fabric enters the opening 11 in the apparatus, whereupon apiece of thread is applied and knotted by pressing the downwardly swivelable lever 13 in the direction of arrow 12.
Whenv the mark has been made, the apparatus is with drawn in the direction of arrow 7 until it releases the web of material.
The section illustrated in Fig. 3 clearly shows these two positions, i. e. the withdrawn rest position 5' (unbroken line) and the advanced operative position 5 (broken line). In the latter position it can easily be seen how the fabric 10 has penetrated the opening 11 in the apparatus.
The user is thus enabled to mark the fabric without having to lift the apparatus; also, he is completely relieved of the need to make sure that the edge of the material enters the apparatus in a flawless manner. All he has to do is to slide the apparatus to and fro, which requires no effort, and merely to exert pressure on it every time, helped by the weight of his own hand.
In the case of the second embodiment, according to Figs. 4 to 6, a guide 14 similar to the guide 1 in the first embodiment is used and is secured to a box 15 which ispartly visible in Figs. 4 and 5 and contains the operating mechanism.
The slide on profiled plate 17 holding the hand apparatus 16 (see Fig. 5) and fitted to guide 1 is also similar to the one described in connection with the first embodiment; the only difference is that this slide or plate 17 has two holes through which the two legs of a stirrup 18 are passed.
This stirrup is designed to be placed round the hand apparatus and is operated from below in such a manner as to press the lever 19 downwards.
Arranged for this purpose in the box 15 is an electromagnet 20 with a core 21 (lower half in section), which latter tensions via cord 22 and roller 23 the spring secured to the box wall. At the same time the spring serves to withdraw the core 21 into the rest position illustrated.
The spring and cord act on the bottom free end of a lever 26 which is flexibly attached to the slide or plate 17 and projects into the box through an opening 25 in the bottom of the guide 14.
Normally and in respect of the advance direction 27 of the slide this lever is swivelled to the rear and is locked in this position by the stirrup 18 flexibly attached to the said slide or plate 17. The stirrup itself, as already stated, is supported on the operating lever 19 of the hand apparatus selected by way of example, which therefore opposes a resistance to the dropping of the stirrup.
If the electromagnet is excited, it withdraws the core 21, whereby the slide or plate 17 is first advanced into position 17' and the lever 26 into the parallel position 26. The spring 24 is tensioned accordingly.
The lug 29, however, to which the lever 26 is flexibly attached, bears against the edge of the lower guide opening 25 before the core 21 has completed its working stroke. Additional tension on the cord 22 finally causes the lever 26 to be swivelled into position 26", which results in the stirrup 18 being drawn downwards into position 18'.
This lattter movement actuates the lever 19 which is swivelled towards 19'.
If the attachment is suitably positioned to bring the hand apparatus into operative, or marking connection with a fabric when the slide or plate 17 is advanced, it can easily be seen that the apparatus advanced by the core of the electromagnet will grip the edge of the fabric and then apply the desired mark.
When the current is interrupted, the spring 24 Withate flisuae a plate 17 together with the hand appara- "tus' into -'the' startin'g position'illustrated' Instead of being operated electrically, an attachment of thistype could betoperatedpneumatically. ,For this I purpose, the electromagnet merely needs to'be. replaced by a cylinder and piston, the piston playing the part of'the tachment could be used to, operate a counter which would record the attachments every function. V
It is also feasible to arrange several attachments according to the invention s'ideby side or to form, them into a combined unit, e. g. .for the purpose of marking a fabric with different colours, depending on which handapparatus issetinoperation. '1 l '1.
