UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN KEATS, OF BAGNALL, ENGLAND, ASSIGNOR TO PHCENIX BOOT MACHINERY COMPANY, LIMITED, OF STREET, ENGLAND, AI COR- PORATION OF GREAT BRITAIN.
TH READ-WAXING DEVICE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 686,461, dated November 12, 1901.
Application filed Tuly 9, 1901. Serial No. 67,602. (No model.)
T0 all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN KEATS, a subject of the King of Great Britain, anda resident of Bagnall, in the county of Staord, England, have invented a new and useful Improved Device for Waxing Thread, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the present invention is to provide a device for waxing thread capable of easy attachment to any kind of sewingmachine.
In the accompanyingdrawingsl have shown two examples of thread-waxers embodying my invention.
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of one example, and Fig. 2 is an outside view of a portion thereof detached. Figs. 3 and 4 are similarviews illustrating the other example.
The device according to the present invention comprises a socket a, preferably cylindrical, provided with a stem b, which can be stepped vertically into the arm or frame of the machine in the line of the thread on its way from the bobbin to the needle. This socket a is pierced transversely with holes c, through which the thread d is passed. e is the wax, preferably beeswax or block lpetroleum, which is carried in a holder consisting of a hollow plunger f, tting into the afore said socket a and which, being caused by its own weight and that of the plunger to bear down upon the passing thread, is fed automatically thereto.
The sides of the wax-holder are provided with slots g g, either straight, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, or curved, as shown in Figs. 3
and 4, which slots permit the holder to descend as the suspended wax is cut away by the thread. In the example Figs. l and 2 there are four slots arranged in twos oppo site each other; but in the example Figs. 8 and 4 there are only two opposite slots. Studs are preferably provided engaging with these slots to guide the wax-holder in its descent and to hold the slots so that their edges will not rub against the passing thread. These studs may take the form of eyelets h, as shown in the drawings, fitted into the holes c of the socket a. It will be seenthat the inner ends of these eyelets project into the slots g of the wax-holder and prevent the thread from rubbing against the 'edges thereof. When the slots are curved, as shown in Fig. 4, the engagement of the studs h causes a slight rotary movement of the wax-holder f as it descends, thereby continually bringinga fresh surface of wax to bear on the thread and preventing the thread from cutting away the wax in one part only. Owing to this rotary movement, the example shown in Fig. 4 is the preferable one. It will be understood that it is not necessary to have more than one stud or eyelet to guide the wax-holder and hold the slots in properline. By means of this device the wax may as efficiently be applied to the thread as it could be by hand and no heat is required.
The wax applied to the thread in a thin coating in a cool state, as above described,
tends to make the sewing easier by lubricating the thread and stiffening it somewhat, so that it will make a better loop. The usual advantages of a waxed thread in sewing are well understood.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A device for waxing thread comprising a socket and a wax-holder fitted to slide therein, said socket and holder having provision for the passage of the thread transversely through both, substantially as described.
2. A device forv waxing thread comprising a socket through which is a transverse passage-way for the thread, a slotted wax-holder sliding in said socket and means for guiding said wax-holder in the socket, substantially as described and for the purpose set forth.
3. In a device for waxing thread, the combination of a socket having holes in opposite sides for the passage of the thread, a Waxholder having slots inits sides for the passage of the thread and fitted to slide in said socket,
and eyelets inserted through said holes into the said slots and serving both as guides to the thread and as guides to the wax-holder, substantially as herein described.
4. In a device for waxing thread, the combination of a socket having holes in its sides for the passage of the thread, a wax-holder having curved siotsinits sides for the passage name to this specification in the presence of of the thread and Iitted to slide in said socket, two subscribing Witnesses.
and thread-fruidimT eyelets inserted throueh f said holes aand entaering said curved slotsbto JOHN KEA FS' 5 produce the turning of the wax-holder, sub- Witnesses:
stantially as herein described. ALVESTO S. HOGUE,
In testimony whereof I have signed my AUGUST FUGGER.
