` f Letters Patent No. 973,619, dated August 10, 1869.
'IMPROVEMENT IN MEASURING- .'ANDFQLDING- CLOTH;
The Schedule 'referred to in these Letters Patent and making of the same.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, L. HILLMAN, of Newton, in the? county of Sussex, and in the State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Device for Bolting and Measuring Cloth; vanddo hereby declare that the following is afull, clear, and exact description thereof', reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of' reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification. j
The nature of my invention consists in the const-ruction of a machinefor boiti'ng and measuring cloth, and in the arrangement of the devices. hereafter set forth andv described. f
Figure 1 is a perspective of my invention.
Figure 2 is a view of the internal v arrangements of the indicator.
Figure 3 is aseo-tional view of lthe clamp.
Figure4 shows the movable bearing of the roller.
Figure 5 is a view. o'f a portion of one of the disks, showing the springfeet'which hold the cloth.
Letter A represents the bed-plate of my device, upon the top of which is placed the frame B, extending from one end to the other, and braced by the cross-pieces C. At each end of the frame there are two standards, I), which are secured to the slotted slides E, dovetailed between the guides, so'that theycan be moved Aback and forth.
Two of these standards` have slots out in their sides,
near the top, which serve as rests to the clasps G,
which hold the bolts`ofl cloth while being measured.
These clasps are provided with thumb-screws, and are made to hold the ends ofthe board, around which the cloth is wrapped, and turn freely with the board in any direction.
As soon as the cloth has been uuwound, the board can be removed by loosening the screws, or the standards can be moved back far enough to allow them all to be taken ont at once.
Upon the centre of the frame there are placed two rollers, H and di, between which the cloth is passed, so as to be measured. Y
rlhe lower one, K, is connected with the .indicatory L, which registers the lengthin yards and inches, while the upper one merely serves to press the cloth against the lower one with sufcient force to cause it .to re-` volve, and is provided with the movable bearing M and spring N, so that it can adjust itself to any thickness of material. 4Upon each side of the rollers there is placeda curved v. metal plate, O, which serves as a guide to the cloth'to and from the rollers, and whichis pivoted tothe frame in such a manner that it can be raised and lowered Pivoted to lthe standards, atthe farther end of the frame, there, are two disks, P, which have flanges raised on their faces, so as to hold the board, around which the cloth is to be wound after being measured'.
Extending downward through the periphery of these disks are the rods R, as seen in tig.v 5, upon the lower ends of which are secured small dat plates, which serve as feet, W, to hold the cloth, and which canbe turned in and out of the slot in the side of the disks.
\ Around these rods there has been placed a spiral spring, V,'as shown by dotted lines, so asto press the v feetdownward sufficiently hardk to hold th'e cloth securely.
Upon theback of one of these disks is secured the Wheel S, which gears with the smaller one, T, which,
in turn, gears with the one, U, on the end ofthe crankshaft V.
Upon the face of the dial there are two circles of figures or numbers, and two hands, one of which marks the inches and the other the yards. The outer circle is intended to represent half inches, and is' divided into seventy-two parts.v At each revolution of the longer hand, making just o ne yard, the shorter one moves forward and registers it.
Having thus described my invention,
" 'VYhat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Pat-A Witnessesz' OAKLY B. PELLET, MARTIN Gnovnn.
