MACHIN FOR COVERING WIRE, CORD, 80C.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 437,266, dated vSeptember 30, 1890.
Application filed April 14, 1890- Serial No. 347,7 56. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, KAsIMIR VOGEL, of Chelsea, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Machines for Covering lVire, Cord, the., which will, in connection with the accompanying drawings,be hereinafter fully described, and specifically defined in the appended claims.
xo In said drawings, Figure l is a perspective View of my newly-invented machine; and Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section thereof, taken through the axis of the hollowr spindle.
The obj ect of myinvention is to provide an r 5 effective machine for the purpose specified without'employing the usual expensive and complicated machines heretofore employed for such purpose, in which are arranged a plurality of bobbins which not only travel zo around the Wire or cord that is being covered, but also change relations to each other for the purpose of effecting an interlacing of the thread ot the several bobbins, each with the others, as they unitedly overlie the wire that 2 5 is being thereby covered. These results I accomplish bythe devices and the combinations thereof that will, in connection with the drawings, be hereinafter described and claimed.
Referring again to said drawings, A repre- 3o sents the frame, which may be secured to a bench or stand. In said frame is journaled the hollow spindle ot, formed with the internal tube d, and with the shorter external tube t),
, rigidly secured on the longer tube ot and jour- 3 5 naled in the bearing c c of frame A. Upon the exterior tube b is secured the pulley B, by
which the spindle is rotated through the agency of a belt or cord. Within tube a, I arrange tube d, the external diameter whereof 4o is slightly less than the internal diameter of a, so as not to cause friction between the two when ct is revolved. At the lower end of tube d it is enlarged, as a't e, either by securing a collar upon it or by forming it with such enlargement, and I form in e the seats f, having flat parallel bases, against which the inner faces of the forks of holder g bear. Said holder is secured to frame A, and serves to hold the inner tube d non-rotative.
The wire or cord that is to be covered is shown at 7L as passing up through tube d and out at the top of tube a and as being wound upon a bobbin by the winding device E. The thread-bobbin is shown at D, and the thread m as Wound thereon. Said bobbin is arranged axially on spindle a and rests upon the baseplate fi of the flier-frame C, which plate is by` its hub j secured rigidly on the lower portion b of the spindle a, so as to support both the Hier-frame and bobbin. Said flier-frame is formed with said base-plate i and a top ring l, the two being united bythe rods k, secured therein, as shown, the central opening in ring Z being of a size to freely admit bobbin D, which, as stated, fits loosely upon spindle c and rests upon plate z', the friction between the bobbin and plate causing the two to travel together, except when the taking up of the thread m upon wire h, as will be explained, causes the bobbin to revolve slowly on the plate.
The machine being putin order for use and Wire h being carried from below up through arbors d and a and connected with Winder E, the end of thread 'm is brought out between j; 5 two of the rods lo, and, being carried spirally around the Winder to the requisite extent, is then passed through passage nin ring` Z,whence it passes through opening p in arbor a and is secured to the wire, when by rotating the flier-frame in a direction opposite to the upward spiral path of the thread-outside of rods lo the thread will be wound upon the wire to a thickness due to the size of the thread and the relative velocity of the rotation of the flier-frame and the lineal movement of the wire.
It will be obvious that if the flier-frame be rotated in the direction indicated by the arrow on plate 1I the thread will not only be held under tension upon rods la, but `that the bobbin will be slowly rotated upon plate in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the flier-frame as the thread is wound upon the wire. If it be desired to saturate the covering-thread with an adhesive or water-proof substance, a fountain F may be arranged below the arbor and filled with such adhesive substance, so that the wire 7L will pass up through the same, taking along the requisite portion to saturate the thread.
By arranging the axis of the spindle oblique instead of Vertical the friction of the bobbin upon plate 'IZ is less variable, as the thread thereon varies in quantity and weight, for if the spindle were vertical the friction would be in the direct ratio of the weight of the bobbin, while if it were horizontal the friction upon plate t would be zero, and hence by arranging the spindle obliquely the friction is, as stated, more nearly uniform.
My machine is not only adapted to cover wire of various sizes with insulatingT material, but it is equally adapted to the purpose of covering cord with an ornamental covering of any desired kind and for all analogous uses and purposes.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination of frame A, hollow spindle a, having a thread-passage through its wall near its top, pulley B, Hier-frame C, formed with base yz', top ring I, having a thread-pas sage 'a therein, and rods 7c, uniting said plate and ring, tubular guide tl, arranged in said spindle andheld non-rotative, and areservoir F, arranged below guide (l, and spindle CL to co-operate therewith, substantially as specitied.
2. In a machine of the class specified, the combination, with the hollow arbor formed with a transverse thread-passagenearits top, of the flier-frame mounted on said arbor and formed with a base to support the bobbins and with a ring secured to said base by supporting-rods and `formed with a central opening to receive the bobbin, and with a thread-passage, substantially as specified.
3. In a machine ofthe class specified, and in combination with the flier-frame formed with a base to support and duly friction the bobbin for requisite thread tension, the hollow spindle which serves as the axis of the flier-frame, arranged with its axis oblique to a vertical line, substantially as specified.
KASIMIR VOGEL.
