APPARATUS FOR COLLECTING AND REMOVING WASTE FROM SPINNING-MACHINES.
. SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 296,148, dated April 1, 1884.
Application filed December 14, 1882.
(N0 model.)
ing Waste from Spinning-Machines, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention is intended for application to mule spinning frames for keeping the rollerbeam and floor clear of waste.
Heretofore a scavenger-roll for gathering and winding up the waste into a bat, Wooden rollers covered with cloth, and a reciprocating slide carrying a brush for clearing the upper side of the roller-beam and the roller-stand on said beam, and provided at its upper end with plush pads for clearing the front of the roller beam,and at its lower end with a pendent apron for clearing the mule-carriage board, the band that actuates the reciprocating brush being cleared by a revolving brush, the brush slidesupporting wire by springs, and the apron by a card attached to the carriage-board, have all been employed for the purpose. In my improved apparatus I make use of an electricalrod and belt, which act to'drawall the loose fibers and broken threads and deposit them in a suitable receptacle, thus keeping the rollerbeam clean, and also, by gathering the waste that would accumulate on the floor, prevent it from becoming dirty and worthless, as hereinafter described and claimed.
Reference is to be had 'to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding partsin all the figures.
Figure 1 is a front elevation partly sectional, of my improved mechanism. Fig. 2 is a crosssection on line m 00, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a portion of the mule having my improvement applied.
A represents the roller-beam, J the rollershaft, K the driving-pulley, and L the backing-off gear, of a mule, about all of which there is nothing new.
B is a pully, supported by a stud, a, that is attached on the beam A.
C is asecond pulley, supported by a stud,
D, and parallel thereto.
b. and D is a belt passing around the pulleys B C.
t is a shaft journaled in the support 7-", at tached to the girth or beam A, and provided at one end with the pinion j, meshing with the backing-off gear L, and at the other with the pulleys ll; and E E E are the driving-belts.
The belt E passes from the small pulley c. that is attached to the pulley B, over the pulley m on support m, to the driving-pulley Z. The belt E passes from'the driving-pulley Z to the pulley a on support a. Beside the pulley a is a pulley, a", over which the crossed belt E passes to the small pulley c on the large pulley B on the opposite side of the machine.
G is a metal rod attached on arms (Z d, fixed on the beam'A, so that the rod is sustained a short distance above the upper side of the belt The position of the rod and belt is below and transversely of the thread passing from the draft-roller I to the spindles. (Not shown.) To the ends of the rods G are connected wiresff of a battery or electrical generator. The stud a is insulated from the roller-beam A by a plate, 9, of insulating material, and the pulley B, carried by the stud, is of metal, while the other pulley, O, is formed of rubber or other insulating material. A wire, h, of a battery or other electrical generator of greater strength than that with which the rod is connected, connects with the stud a; and, if necessary, the belt D may be formed with wires interlaced with it, so as to increase the amount of electricity upon it.
H is a receptacle for the waste, placed beneath the pulley O; and t" is a brush bearing against the under side of the belt, for removing the waste therefrom;
In operation the rod G, being charged with electricity, attracts the loose fibers-from the yarn passing over, and the belt running beneath the rod, being more strongly electrified, draws the fibers from the rod and carries them to the receptacle H. The object of using the rod between the belt and the yarn is to prevent any possibility of the loose fibers carried by the belt from coming in contact with the yarn or thread, which might occur if the belt were placed too closely thereto. In case any of the threads break, they are attracted by the rod and from the rod to the belt, and are carried along to the box, so that they are prevented from becoming entangled with the other threads or making a double thread.
I do not limit myself to the electrical connections exactly as shown and described. In some cases electricity generated by the running of the belt may be utilized for electrifying both the belt and the rod, and thus dispense with any separate generator. If desired, the driving-pulley may be constructed as a dynamoelectric generator.
The advantages of this apparatus may be briefly stated as follows: The threads are prevented from running double or winding around the rolls, and thus lilting the rolls and forming imperfect threads. The rolls being kept clean, the usual top cleaner is dispensed with. The roller-beam and mule-carriage being kept clean, the fly-waste is kept out of the yarn and off of the spindles; and, lastly, the waste is saved in a clean condition, instead of be coming dirty refuse, as is usually the case.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. The apparatus for collecting and remov' ing waste from spinning-machines, consisting of the rod G, belt D, the pulleys B G, the studs a b, and insulator 9, combined with means for electrifying said rod and belt and operating the belt, substantially as shown and described.
2. The combination, with the beam A. and the belt D, of the arms (I, the rod G, supported by said arms over the belt, and means for electrifying said rod and belt and operating the belt, substantially as herein shown and described.
3. The combination of the pulleys B 0, means for operating the same, the .belt D, rod G, and electrical connections, substantially as described, with the roller-beam A of a mule spinning frame. for the purpose specified.
4. The combination, with the drawing-roll of a spinning or roving frame, of devices arranged in relation to said drawing-roll, and
' mechanism for electrifying said (l0VlCCS,Wl]0l'0- by the waste is collected and removed, sub stantially as shown and described.
