IMPROVEMENT IN REEL FOR YARN, 8w.
The. Schedule referred to in these Letters .Patent and making part of the 5am To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, FRANZ Venerm, of Montgomery City, in the county of Montgomery, and State-of Missouri, have made certain new and useful IIDPIUYC- ments in Combined Yarn-Reel and Meterjand 1 do hereby declare that the following is a full and clear description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The object of this invention is to construct. a reel for winding yarn or thread into skeins, which said reel shall, at the same time, be adjustable as to the size of the skeins, and be able to count, automatically, the number of strands in the skein, and thereby also measure it.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my improved reel, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
Figure 1, of the drawings, is a side elevation ofthe apparatus.
Figure 2 is a sectional front elevation,'bisecting the reel. 1
Figure 3 is a sectional elevation, disclosing the countrug-gear.
The whole apparatus is erected on the post A, which rests on the feet a, the said foot having breadth enough of base to secure a. substantial foundation. B finds its hearings in the top end of the post A, which is enlarged somewhat, for the purpose of giving it ample bearings, and for the accommodation of the counting-wheels, hereinafter mentioned.
The outer end of this axle B carries the reel C, and is provided with a crank, c, by means of which it is turned. The reel is composed of radial arms, 0, and cross-heads, 0 on which the yarn or thread is wound. The arms 0 are passed through mortises in the hub c, by the sides of the cogged pinion 0, into which they gear, the adjacent edges of the said arms being coggcd for that purpose. A prolongation of the pinion-piece 0* extends outside of the hub 0 and is provided with screw-threads, on to which the crank c is screwed. By turning the crank slightly backwards, it will be released from contact with the face of the hub, against which it impinges when screwed up tightly, and the aforesaid pinion 0 will then be allowed to turn independently of the hub, and, by turning it, the arms 0 may be set in or out, to any required size of skein. When the size of the reel is thus adjusted, the crank will be screwed up tightly to the face of the hub, and the whole reel may then be turned by it.
The axle,
On the inner end of the shaft B, and within the head of the post, is asingle finger, d. This finger is arranged to gear into the teeth of the cogged counter-wheel D, and on the axle of this counter-wheel is another fingcr, d arraimed to gear into the teeth of the cogged wheel D, which is placed on the index-shaft :1 The two enlarged detail drawings will clearly illustrate this arrangement of the meter-gearing.
On the outer end of the shaft (1? there is an indexfinger, 11 which, in conjunction with the diaLplatc d, on the face of the post, serves to indicate the number of the revolutions of the reel; and consequently the number of strands wound, and the length in yards,
then, of the thread wound, will only be a matter of computation, which may be simplified by setting the size of the reel to an even yard in circumference, or an even fractiomd part of a yard.
The number of cogs on the wheels D and D should be the same on each, say, for instance, ten or twelve, and the gnuluation-marks on the face ofthe dial should be some multiple of these numbers, say one hundred, or one hundred and forty-four. If ten cogs be used, and at every revolution of the finger d the wheel D be moved by it the distance of one. cog, and at every revolution of the finger cl the wheel D be moved by it the distance of one cog, then, for every ten revolutions of the reel and the finger d, the wheel D will make one revolution, and for every ten revolutions of the wheel D, the wheel D will make one revolution, and the index-finger d will have completed the whole circle of the dial, which, in this case, should be marked in tenths and hundredths; but if twelve cogs be used in each wheel, then the dial should be marked in twelfths, and so on. In this manner the number of the strands wound on the reel may be accurately counted automatically. When the reel shall have been wound full, and it is desired to remove the skein, the crank may be screwed backward, and the size of the reel contracted within the skein, as has before been described, and the skein can then be easily removed from the reel.
Having described my' invention,
What i claim, is-
The reel 0 and its shaft B, to operate the finger d, pinion D, finger d, pinion D, and indicator (3 (Z substantially as set forth.
FRANZ VOEGTLI.
