UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DANIEL ORME AND FRANCIS HEANS ORME, OF OLDHAM, COUNTY OF LANCASTER, ENGLAND.
REGISTER FOR THROSTLES OR OTHER SPINNING-MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 368,163, elated August 9, 1887.
Application filed March 5, 1887. Serial No. 229,771. (No model.) Patented in England August 2, 188 1, No.10,882.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, DANIEL ORME and Fannors Hnans ORME, subjects of the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, and residing at Oldham, county of Lancaster, England, meter manufiicturers, have invented certain Improvements in Indicators for Textile Machinery, (for which we obtained a patent in Great Britain, No. 10,882, dated August 2, 1884,) of which the following is a specification.
Our invention consists of certain improvements in the construction of indicators or counters, more especially adapted for application to throstles or other machines employed in the spinning and preparation of textile materials for the purpose of indicating the amount of work performed.
The main object of our invention is to provide a simple and effective construction of such an indicator or counter, and onein which the indications can be distinctly seen and read.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a front view of the counter, with hinged door open or raised to show the dial. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the dial removed and the case in section to show the interior construe tion. Fig. 3is a sectional view on the line A B, Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 is a detached sectional view showing one of the indicating-wheels and its gearing in side elevation.
a is a cylindrical case, which incloses the indicating apparatus, and is provided at the front with a hinged door or cover, b, and with a dial, which is protected by means of a glass disk, (I, Fig. 3.
On the back e of the case is a sleeve, f, to which is adapted a short shaft, 9. On the outer end of this shaft g is fixed a worm-wheel, h, which is protected by a suitable casing. On the inner end of the shaft is aworn1,g, which gears with a second worm-wheeLz', free to turn upon a spindle, s, which is carried by brackets 6, formed on the back of the case.
Upon a second spindle, t, are mounted three pinions, j, which gear with spur-wheels k on three indicating-cylinders, 1. Each of these pinions is suificiently broad to mesh with the pinion k of one indicating-wheel and to extend over the edge of the adjacent plain wheel m. A portion of every other tooth of each pinion j is removed, as seen in Fig. 2, and the periphery of each wheel in enters one of the enlarged spaces formed by such removal of portions of teeth in the manner indicated in Figs. 3 and 4, so that the pinion is thereby prevented from rotating. In each of these wheels at a notch, 02, is formed, and at this point the thickness of the wheel is increased, as shown in Fig. 2 and indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 4.
It will be seen that when the projection is out through by the notch a the top of the projection is formed into two spurs, which are adapted to act as teeth to turn the pinion, the notch permitting the pinion to turn to the extent of two teeth only. One of these two projeoting teeth may be dispensed with, but the one retained must be in advance of the notch as the wheel rotates. The effect of this con' struetion and arrangement is that the first pinion is moved to the extent of two teeth once during each revolution of the worm-wheel t', and as the spnr-wheel on the first cylinder has twenty teeth, the said cylinder is moved through a tenth of a revolution. Daring one of each ten movements of the first cylinder the second cylinder is moved to the extent of a tenth of a revolution, the third cylinder be ing moved once for each hundred movements of the first cylinder. I
The cylinders are marked with numerals, and are by preference made of white glazed earthenware. The dial is formed with a slot or opening to expose the three numerals which are brought into line in a central position on the three cylinders, as seen in Fig. 1, in which the indication is fifteen and one-fifth hanksthat is to say, 15.2 hanks in decimal notation. In some cases we may not arrange for the indications of fractions of a hank. The worms and worn1-wheels may vary in proportions according to the indications which are required. It is apparent that the indication is very clear and distinct, and can be seen at a glance without the eye being confused by a number of marks upon a dial, as in the case of the ordinary counter.
lVhen applied to the frame the counter is fixed so that the worm-wheel his in gear with of the shaft carrying pinions j, a series 01" indicating cylinders, Z, having spur-wheels 7:, and notched wheels at, with a worm-wheel, '1 the worm g, gearing with the latter, shaft 9, and worm-wheel 71 adapted to be driven from the machine, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
DANIEL ORNE. FRANCIS IIEANS ORME.
