plurality of parallel drive shafts arranged in a plane, and having drive wheels adapted to engage the whirls of bobbins. The bobbins are disposed in a plurality of rows above the said drive shafts, and hence their axes will also be substantially in a plane. For guiding the threads to the bobbins I provide a thread guide comprising a plurality of thread guiding members, one for each bobbin, each thread guide individually adjustable in several directions, independently of the adjustment of any of the other said members. Preferably the thread guide frame is arranged immediately beneath the drive shafts, and the thread guiding members extend laterally therefrom and then upward between the drive shafts and the bobbins. This arrangement is exceedingly advantageous, for it leaves the spaces between the bobbins clear, right through the machine, except for the small space occupied by-the individual thread guiding members, and, these thread guiding members being individually and independently adjustable, they may be adjusted one way and another so as to be clear of any particular spot as may be desired. The planes in which the axes of the bobbins and drive shafts are arranged are preferably inclined, so that, with the thread guiding members projecting but a small distance above the bobbins, the threads may be properly distributed and guided to their respective bobbins through the shortest and most direct course. Again, the upper part of the machine is substantially clear of mechanism, so that access may be readily had to every part of the machine.
My invention also consists in the particular form of thread guiding member per se comprising a hub, and adjustable means carried thereby, as will be more specifically pointed out hereinafter.
I will now proceed to describe mechanism embodying my invention, and will then point out the novel features in claims.
In the drawings: Figure l is a view in side elevation of winding mechanism embodying my invention, a portion thereof being broken away and in section, and showing in partial central vertical section and partial side elevation, a lustering apparatus from which the threads may pass to the winding mechanism. Fig. 2 is a top view of the winding machine, certain parts being broken away in order to show other parts. Figs. 3, 4 and 5 are, respectively, side, front and top views of a thread guiding member.
The winding mechanism as a whole comprises a machine having a main frame 1 and bobbin guide and supporting frames 2 suitably secured thereto. These frames 2 are arranged in pairs across the top of the machine, and each pair of frames has guiding slots 3 for receiving the spindles of bobbins 4 when the said bobbins are arranged in driving relation, and sockets 5 for receiving the spindles of the bobbins when they are to be held out of driving relation. Beneath the slots 3, and suitably journaled in the frame 1, are a plurality of drive shafts 6 carrying drive wheels 7. The whirls 8 of the bob bins 4 are arranged to rest upon the peripheries of the drive wheels 7, the spindles of the bobbins being guided freely in the slots 3 in the frame 2 ad acent the said whirl. The spindle at the opposite end of the bobbin rests in the bottom of the slot 3 of the other frame 2, the same forming a bearing therefor.
There are a number of pairs of frames arranged. across the machine, and the shafts 6 are arranged beneath the said frames, being provided each with a drive wheel 7 between each pair of frames. Each shaft is therefore arranged to drive one row of bobbins, and, there being a plurality of such shafts 6 arranged with their axes in a plane, it follows that the said shafts are adapted for supporting and rotating a plurality of rows of bobbins, each row comprising a series axially in a line with each other, and the axes of all the rows arranged in a single plane. Suitable means is provided for simultaneously driving the several shafts 6, and, in the present instance, such means comprises a shaft 9, suitably journaled in bearings secured to the main frame 1, and miter gears 10 and 11 arranged upon the shafts 6 and the shaft 9, respectively. The shaft 9 is connected by means of bevel gears 12, a vertical shaft 13, I
vertically and rotatably adjustable in the and other bevel gears 14 with themain- -drive shaft 15. Suitable clutch. mechanism 1'6.
may be employed for controlling the same, as is well known. I v
In order to properly guide the threads to their respective bobbins, and to-move. the; thread backwards and forwards with relation to its bobbin so as to properly arrange the thread upon its bobbin, I have provided a traversing thread guide. This traversing thread guide comprises a frame composed of a plurality of parallel rods 18 secured to gether by a bar 17. The rods '18 are arranged immediately beneath the drive shafts 6, their axes lying in vertical planes with the axes of the said shafts. The ends of the rods 18 are suitably supported and guided in 7, support the hubs, and a stem 25 adjustably mounted in said intermediate member 23 and secured in position by means of a set screw 26. At the upper end the stem carries a porcelain guide piece 27. The stem 25 is both member 23, as will be well understood, and, by the various adjustments provided for, it will be seen that universal ad ustment is ossible for the guide piece 27, that is, vertical, backwards and forwards, or sidewise in any direction. When the hub is located in proper position upon the rod supporting it, the guide may swing in any direction either longitudinal of the path of the traversing guide as a whole by means of the pivot 24, or transverse of that movement by moving the hub bodily around upon the rod. Again, should it be desired to move the hub along the rod without changing the relative position of the guide piece 27, this may be done, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 4. It will be noticed that the hub and intermediate piece are offset from their point of support upon the rod 18, so that the stem will be permitted to rear its head upward between the drive shafts and bobbins. The proper height for the guide piece 27 may be readily regulated by means of the set screw 26. In order to reciprocate the said thread guide as a whole, I provide a cam oreccentric 30 mounted upon a substantially vertical shaft 31, said shaft driven through a worm and gear connection 32 from the shaft 9. A lever 33, pivoted at 34, is provided with a follower 35 engaging the said cam or eccentric, and is connected with the bar 17 of the traversing guide through a link connection 36. A turn buckle 37 is preferably arranged in the said link3t ,whereby the position the traversing thread.guidewithrespect to the lever 33 may be readily adjusted. A spring 38 holds 'the camn'follower35 up to the face of the cam members and thence to the individual bobbins 4. The bobbins are rotated at a high speed by means of their driving mechanism,
while the traversing thread guide'is slowly reciprocated back and forth. The threads are thus wound up u on the bobbins. By the, arrangement of t e bobbins, it will be seen that an attendant, standing at any point around the machine, has a complete view of all the bobbins, and hence can watch them all and instantly detect if'there is any fault in any one of them. If a thread breaks, a bobbin may be quickly removed, and, if desired, may be allowed to rest in the sockets 5, by which it will be maintained out of driving relation until the thread is once more properly connected, andit is again desired to operate same.
The preferable arrangement for the bobbins is in an inclined lane, as shown, and, by this arrangement, a ll the threads may be carried directly to their respective bobbins without interference with each other. The threads may come from any suitable source, but, in the drawings I have shown same as being drawn from an apparatus for lustering and finishing silk filaments or threads. 7
It will be quite ap arent that the thread guide per se is capabl g of other uses than in the precise form of machine herein illustrated, and, though I have designed it particularly for use in connection with this machine, and so claim it, I do not wish to be limited to such use, as, obviously, it has a wider range of usefulness.
What I claim is:
1. In thread winding machinery, the combination with means for supporting a plurality of rows of bobbins, the axes of all said bobbins being arranged substantially in a plane, and a plurality of drive shafts, one for each row of bobbins, arranged beneath the said bobbins, of a traversin thread guide therefor comprising a plura ity of parallel rods secured together to reciprocate beneath said drive shafts, and a plurality of individual thread guiding members each comprising a hub adjustably mounted upon said rods and a stem vertically and laterally adjustable upon said hub, said stem arranged to extend u ward between said bobbins and drive sha ts, substantially as specified.
