MACHINE FOR MEASURING AN'D WINDING FABRICS.
SPECIICATIONOIBIHg part Of Letters Patent NO. 352,478, dated November 9, 1886.
' Application filed July 2, 1886. Serial No. 206,923. (Model.)
T0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES H. LYON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Greeley, in the county of Anderson and State of Kansas, have invented a new and useful Improvement iu Machines for Folding and Measuring Fabrics, of which the following is a specication, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to improvements in machines for winding and measuring goods of any width, from the narrowest ribbons to the widest of any goods,- all of which will be here' inafter more fully described, and pointed out in theclaims.
In theacconipanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the machine having a part broken away. Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section on a x x of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical section on y y of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is an enlarged view showing the manner ofholding the board or block ou which the fabric is wound. Fig. 5 is an elevation of the gearing for indicating the length of the goods. Fig. '6
is a perspective view of one of the clamps. u Fig. 7 is a side view of aforked holder or center. Fig. 8 is a longitudinal vertical section of a part of the top frame, A', showing the friction-cap over one of the centers at Z Z, Fig. 1.
A A is the bed-frame of the machine.
A' A', Src., are the cornerposts.
A" A" are the top frames at the end.
A' is the side top frame.
f B is the opposite sliding or adjustable beam, having a tenon, b, at each end, which slides in the grooves b' in thesides of the end top frames, A l/ All.
C is an adjusting-rod screw-threaded in its entire length, having a handle, c, and the nut c', formed like a yoke, and which nut is secured to theinside of thesliding beam B. The screwrod O passes through the nut c,and also through a uut, b", on the outside of the sliding beam B. The free end of the rod G is supported in a strong dat vertical bar, D, which is sustained on the standard D', projecting above the bedframe A. On the opposite side of the frame is a similar standard, D". In these standards D' D are pivoted two rollers, E E. The lower roller, E, has no vertical adjustment in its bearings, but the top roller, E', is pivoted in vertical slotted bearings e" in the standards,
to admit of a Slight vertical adjustment, andl` on top of each journal is a coiled spring, d,
which is operated upon by a thumb-screw, d', inserted in the lop of each standard through a fixed nut, d", so that the top roller, E', can Abe forced down close upon the bottom roller, E, for a purpose which will be hereinafter explained.A On theinner'end of the bottom roller, E, isa journal, h, which projects some distance through the standard D", on which journal is a pinion-wheel, e, which meshes with cogs under a wheel, F. On the same shaft, F', of the Wheel F is a pinion, f, which meshes with a spur-wheel, G, and on the shaft G' is a pinion, g,'which meshes with a spur-wheel, H, and yon the top ,of the shaft H' is an index, lla', and around it' are the graduations to indicate the yards or feet.
I I' are forked cramps of metal having in their shanks holes i for the thumb-screws J J', which work in nuts t" on the side of the slid- 'ing beam B, their ends being pointed for penetratin g the ends of the boards orl blocks M M', upon which the goods are wound and unwound. Passing through the top beam, A, are
forked' centers or holders K K', having their outer ends screw-threaded. On the end of K is a crank-handle, k, for operating the machine. On K' is a handle, k', for tightening and adj usting the center K' through the beam A'. On top of the beam A' is a thumb-screw, a', for tightening the center K' by means of a friction cap, s, over thejournal of center K', and inside of the top frame, A', as seen in Fig. 8 in section.
rIhe adjusting sliding beam B can be moved in orout by means of the screw-rod C, so as to .bring the screws J J'and cramps I I' up to the ends of the boards or blocks M M', on which the goods are to be wound up or from which to be unwound.
The operation of the machine is as follows: The particular fabric is placed as represented by M' in Figs. 1 and 3. The sliding beam B is then, by means of screw C, so adjusted that the points of the thumb-screw J J', Fig. 4, will be inserted in the ends of the boards or blocks, M M'. The clamps or centers K K' are IOO then adjusted to the other ends of said boards or blocks by meansof the handles 7c 7c'. The thumb-screws J J' and centers K K are then tightened to securely hold the two blocks, which are prevented from turning` on the center-points by the use ofthe cramps I l', through which the screws J J' loosely revolve in the center hole, i, Fig. 6. The loose end of the fabric on the board M is then carried over the top roller, E', around and under it, and over and around the bottom roller, E, and to and around the board M, where it is fastened to the board, all of which is illustrated in Fig. 3 and the direction indicated by thearrows. The screws J J vand centers K K are so regulated that, in connection with the sliding beam, any length of board or ribbon-block can be held between them very securely. The screws d' d' on top ofthe standards D' D" work in the `Iixed nuts d" and press upon coiled springs d,
l tension can be given to the fabric running between them as to wind the fabricas tightly upon the board M as may be required. The journal 71, at one end of the 'lower roller, E, is extended through the standard D", and on its end is a pinion, e, which drives the gearing F G Hand lthe indicator-arm h', for the purpose of indicating the exact nnmberof yards wound upon the board M. The crank-handle 7c on the center K gives motion to every part of the niachine.
l. The combination of the rollers E E', the boards M M', the centers K K', cramps I I', tightening-screws J J', and adjustable beam B, substantially as described.
2. The combination of the frame A, the centers K K', with handles 7c k' for adjustment, and tightening-screw a', thescrew-rod C, with its handle o, yoke-nut c', the sliding beamB, with its tenons, cramps I I', and screws J J', and gro'oved end beams, A".
\ In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I hereto affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
