Definitions
- the marking of the shells. is very time consuming and the shells. have to be remarked from time to time due to the large wear and tear.
- a further disadvantage of this kind of marking is that the quality of the yarn can only be recognised when the marked coloured dot is in vicw,vthus recognition is .dependent upon the position of the cop.
- Apparatus for marking the copswith a liquid dye are known, which to avoid soiling the spinning machine and the operator, Works by wicks which dip into the liquid dye andwhich likewise produce only av marked dot on each cop. Such an apparatus is also prone to some of the disadvantages aforesaid.
- the object of. the present invention is to. overcome at least to some extent these disadvantages. by providing an apparatus for the marking thespinning cops onthe spinni'ng frame which operates efficientlyand speedily without soiling of the machine or operator and which produces a marking which allows .the qualityof the yarn to be recognised, independently of the positionof the cops.

- the pad 25 may be so mounted in the frame 23 that it can easily be exchanged.
- the whole marking apparatus is in connection with the spinning frame only by means of the rollers 14 and 17 it can be easily and quickly placed in position or removed therefrom. In spite of this, a secure movement along the rails 10 and 12 is ensured.
- the marking apparatus as a whole can also be so constructed that its distance from the row of cops 11 can be increased or decreased, for
- the provision for adjustment may be incorporated in the holder 18.
- the liquid marking dye is water soluble, so that it may readily be removed from the yarn, for example by a washing or bleaching operation.
- the liquid dye is stored in the bottle 20 under a suitable air or gas pressure.
- a pressure in the range of 3 to 6 atmospheres above atmospheric pressure may be used.
- the bottle 20 can be fitted with a filter and a drain cap and also with an air exhaustion valve.
- a supply pipe 35 is provided and has at its lower end, which dips into the liquid dye, a fine filter 36 made of porcelain or of similar material (see FIG. 4).
- the liquid dye may be fed under pressure to the arrangement of jets 30 (see especially FIGS. 1 and 5).
- the arrangement of jets 30 may contain one or (as shown in the drawings) a plurality of individual jets arranged above one another so that on passage of the marking apparatus, alongside the row of cops 11 which would then be rotating, each cop would be provided with one or (as in this case) a plurality of rings of dye.
- jets may be fed individually or by means of a group feed with the dye.
- FIG. 5 shows a common feed pipe 41 for all the jets.
- the liquid dye passes from the bottle 20, through the locking device 28 into the feed pipe 41, the locking de* vice 28 being preferably set at an angle to the feed pipe 41, thereby enabling the latter to be cleaned easily, after loosening and removing the two screws 42 and 43.
- a straight line feed may of course be used if necessary.
- the individual jets 45 are formed by radial borings in the common feed pipe 41.
- the jets can be either bored directly into the feed pipe 41 as FIG. 8a shows or as shown in FIG. 9 they may be formed in jet blocks 47 similar to the so-called wire drawings diamonds which are mounted in the radial borings 48 of the common feed pipe 41.
- the feed pipe 41 is preferably rotatably adjustable: so as to make possible the adjustment of the angle at: which the sprays of liquid emerge therefrom. Height:
- each jet be formed in a separate part, each such. part is adapted for,rotatable and vertical adjustment.
- an inset bolt 51 is provided, as can be seen from FIG. 5, which bolt extends into the bore of the pipe 41 to a position adjacent the topmost jet 45.
- the inset bolt 51 may conveniently be formed by an extension on the screw 43.
- the common feed pipe 41 as well as the supports of the quick locking device 28 can be firmly secured together by an angle piece 70, which could advantageously be formed from a plastic material by injection moulding same round the common feed pipe 41 and the lock supports.
- a closure organ in the form of a rotary sleeve is provided for each jet, enabling each individual jet to be opened,
- the rotarysleeves 60 have, 'at the :places at which the jets 45 are arranged in the common feed pipe 41, apertures 68 which are larger and preferably considerably larger than the actual jet openings 44 or 48.
- the apertures 68 can be constructed cylindrically at first and then opening conically to the outside.
- the common feed pipe 41 has an outer thread at its top end.
- the individual sleeves 60 are held together on the common feed pipe 41 bymeans of a nut .65 and a locking nut 64.
- the clearance between the feed pipe 41 and the sleeves 60 is selected with an extremely small tolerance, so that there is an interference fit between the sleeves 60 and pipe 41. Twisting of the rotary sleeves 60 over the pipe 41 is thus only possible by using appreciable force.
- the sleeves can be pivoted between limit stops 72, from the position shown in FIG. 6 wherein the jet is open to the position shown in FIG. 7 wherein the jet is closed or vice versa.
- the limit stops 72 are mounted on a flange 59 which can, for example, be formed integrally with the angle piece 70.

- the marking apparatus is set with its rollers 14 on the track rail 12. and is positioned suitably as regards the distance of the apparatus away from the cops 11, and if necessary as regards horizontal direction, by the adjustment of for example the holder 18.
- the jets 45 are so adjusted that the fine stream of dye liquid 90 emerging from their apertures reaches the cops 11 at a predetermined angle.
- the optimum adjustment depends on the speed of rotation of the cops 11 and the speed at which the marking apparatus is led passed the cops 11.
- the angle selected is preferably smaller than that shown in FIG. 3 contained between the tangent 80 common to two adjacent cops 11 and the direction of passage of the marking apparatus.
- the angle of the jets should also be selected so as not to be too acute, so that the length and hence the crosssection is not too great.
- adjustable limit stops can be placed at both ends of the track rail. It lies within the scope of the invention to construct these limit stops, if necessary, in such a manner that they automatically open the rotary sleeve or sleeves 60 at the start of the passage of the marking apparatus and close it or them at the end of its passage.
