DIAL-HOLDER FOR KNITTING-MACHINES.
To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY BRADLEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at New Britain, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Dial-Holders for KnittingMachines; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be'a full, clear, and exact description of the same. and which said drawings constitute part. of this specification, and represent, 1n-
Figure 1 a side view of a dial holder for knitting machines embodying my invention. Fig. 2 a view showing one of the brackets and bearings for the rollers, and the lower end of the holder. Fig. 3 a broken sectional view of one end of one of the rollers.
This invention relates to an improvement in knitting machines and particularly machines for knitting tubular fabrics. These machines comprise a head and a dial within the head; the head revolves but the dial must be held against revolution, while the fabric passes downward between the head and the dial. As these machines are used with different thicknesses of work it is essential that the means for preventing the rotation of the dial should not vary the tension.
The object of this invention is to provide simple means for holding the dial against rotation; and the invention consists in the construction hereinafter described and particularly recited in the claims.
In carrying out my invention I employ a cup-like head 2 formed with flanges 3 by which it is attached concentrically by bolts 4 to the under face of a dial 5 of an ordinary circular knitting machine. Depending from the head is a stem 6 which terminates in oppositely extending arms 7. These arms are flattened so that they are less in thickness than the diameter of the stem 6. These arms stand between a pair Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 23, 1909.
against rotation.
Patented Mar. 29, 1910.
Serial No. 524,186.
of horizontally arranged rollers 8 and 9 which at their ends are reduced to form journals 10 which enter blocks 11 which are mounted to slide longitudinally in bearings 12 formed integral with or mounted upon brackets 13 which are secured to the sides let of the machine frame. These bearings are longitudinally adjustable by screws 15 so that the surfaces of the rollers may be adjusted toward or from the sides of the arms 7 according to the thickness of the material passing between them and for the adjustment of the machine. The arms '7 extending between the rollers 8 and 9 are held against rotation and consequently the dial 5 is held The head 2 may be in the form of a cup and serve as a drip cup for oil from the central shaft 16 upon which the dial 5 is mounted and which shaft revolves in the dial. These means for holding the dial may be readily applied to circular knitting machines of ordinary construction and firmly hold the dial against rotation, and by adjusting the rollers work of various thicknesses may readily pass between them.
I claim 1. A dial holder for knitting machines comprising a head adapted to be secured to the under face of a knitting machine dial, a stem extending downward from said head and terminating in arms, and a pair of horizontal rollers between which the arms extend.
2. A dial holder for knitting machines comprising a head adapted to be secured to the under face of a knitting machine dial, a stem extending downward from said head and terminating in arms, and a pair of laterally adjustable rollers between which the arms extend.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
