WASHER FOR SPINNING AND TWISTING MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 447,388, dated March 3, 1891.
Application filed April 1'7, 1890. Serial No. 348,294. (No model.) I
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH WALKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Trenton, in the county of Mercer, in the State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in WVashers. for Spinning and Twisting Machines, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in washers used in spinning and twisting frames to separate the whirls from thelifter-plates, and has forits object a means of readily keepin g the bearing-surfaces of the washers, whirls, and tubes thereof, and also the spindles, well and constantly lubricated without the frequent manual operation heretofore practiced.
My invention consists of a metallic washer formed in a single piece and containing a lubricating-chamber which may be filled with a fibrous textile or other packing, which serves to hold a lubricant and to distribute it at the proper points.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of my improved washer in place and of the parts of a spinning-frame with which it is immediately connected. Fig.2 is afront elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of my improved Washer, and Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view thereof.
In the drawings like letters indicate like parts.
A is the spindle-rail.
B is the lifter-plate.
O O are lifter-pins.
D is the spindle; E, the whirl; F, the tube; G, the cap; H, the washer; I, the strap or belt which transmits the rotary motion to the whirl,
and J the bobbin.
Spinningframes, as is well known, are usually built for the winding of numerous bobbins at a time. These bobbins rest upon the metal whirls and rotate with them. The whirls revolve upon the spindles and are supported and raised and lowered by the lifterplate, so that the yarn is wound regularly upon the bobbins, being brought to its position on the bobbin by the stationary cap mounted upon the spindle, and marked G in the drawings. To these whirls power is transmitted by a small belt passing over the driv- Whirl and the lifter-plate. 'tion of the spindle upon which the Whirl roseven thousand revolutions per minute; and v to prevent their wearing away that part of the lifter-plate in contact with them, ordinary metallic ring washers have been heretofore placed upon the spindle intermediate the tates and at the bearing-point of the Whirl and washer is requisite, and at each lubrication it is necessary to raise the whirl by hand or otherwise from the washer, in order to deposit the lubricant at the proper point. This has to be done several times daily to every whirl in operation, and requires much labor and attention. By the use of myimproved washer Frequent lubricamuch of this labor is obviated, a considerable portion of the lubricant which by the old process is wasted is utilized, and the whirls and spindles are more thoroughly and certainly lubricated, and their life is prolonged.
My improved Washer (shown in full size in Figs. 3 and 4) is made to best advantage of one piece of metal, preferably cast-steel or malleable iron. Through the middle of the washer and opening in each face thereof is an annular opening, (shown at a in Figs. 3 and 4,) through which the spindle passes, fitting closely. The top of the wall of the annular opening is a little lower than the top of the outside edges of the washer, and is faced to afford smoothplay of the whirl, which rests thereon. The interior of the washer is chambered, as shown at c c in Fig. 4. This chamber is square, or nearly so, in plan, and opens to its full width by a mouth on the upper face of the Washer. opens into and around the annular opening a, as shown in Fig. 4. This chamber contains a packing, made preferably of soft fibrous or textile material, which is readily permeable by lubricants, and which operates to hold the same. The packing is introduced into the (Shown at b.) The chamber 0 c chamber through the mouth I), filling both 5 the chamber and the mouth, so as to be readily withdrawn and replaced, and has near its center a puncture which registers with the annular opening a when the packing is in place in the chamber. The upper face of the washer is hollowed out or recessed between the exterior walls and the Wall of the annular opening a, as shown in section in Fig. 4:. In the hollowed or recessed portion of the face are one or more small openings e e e 6, (shown in Fig. 3,) which open into the chamber c c.
Vhen the washer is to be used, the packing is inserted into the chamber until the hole in the packing registers with the annular opening a and the outer end of the packing is readily accessible at the mouth I). The washer is then placed upon the spindle D and brought to its seat on the top of the litter-plate, the small arm or hook f being placed on the inner side of the lifter-plate to hold the washer in position and prevent its being rotated by the whirl. The whirl E is then passed down on the spindle until it rests on the top of the smooth upper face of the wall of the annular opening a. The bobbin and cap are then adjusted. Lubricant is then poured in upon the recessed upper face of the washerand passes in part through the openings e e e e and is taken up and held by the packing. lhis packing being in contact with the spindle keeps it lubricated, while the spindle in turn keeps the tube lubricated, and more or less of the lubricant finds its way to the pointof frictional contact between the whirl and the washer.
Having thus described my invention, what Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A washer for supporting the whirls of spinning and twisting machines, consisting of an interiorly-chalnbered metal plate for receiving packing for holding and distributing a lubricant upon the spindle and whirl, substantially as described.
2. Awasher for supporting the whirls of spinning and twisting machines, consisting of an interiorly-chambered metal plate, and having a packing within said chamber to hold and distribute a lubricant upon the spindle and whirl, and a vertical annular passage through the plate for the spindle, said passage having a connection with said lubricating-chamber, substantially as described.
3. A washer for supporting the whirls of spinning and twisting machines, consisting of an internally-chambcred metal plate having a central vertical annular aperture for receiving the spindle, and a mouth or opening into the chamber for the introduction of a packing into said chamber, the plate having a recessed upper face and one or moreopenings from said recessed face into said chamber, substantially as described.
