To all whom it may concern: V
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM H. ERMEN- recur, citizen of the United States, residin at Reading, in the county of Berks an State of Pennsylvania,', have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stocking-Turning Machines, of which the following is a specification. V This invention, relates to imp ovements in stockin turning machines and he object is to facilitate the turning of stockings during the process of manufacture. Ordinarily, when the stocking is topped it is on the so-called wrong side and it is customary to turn it by hand, which is a slow process,
My object inthe present invention is to provide a device that will turn the stockings rapidly, and the invention consists of an eriaust fan, with a specially constructed fan, and having a funnel ,at the entrance to the fan casing, over which the stockin is slipped, and the stocking is drawn into the casing and turned While being so drawn, after which it is deposited through the exit tube.
The the following trated in the which Figure 1 is a front elevation of my machine, showing a stocking just ready to be turned and another being ejected therefrom.
specification and clearly illusaccompanylng drawing, 111
F ig. 2 is a vertical central sectional view of the machine, showing the fan construction. Fig; 3 is a front View of the fan, showing the screen.
'llhe numeral 1 designates the casing. This is of substantially the ordinary exhaust fan construction, but I have shown my fan. 2 provided with but four blades 5. This fan is mounted on the usual shaft 6 and is driven from the pulley '2 by any suitable power.
To the front of the fan, ll secure a cover in disk form, 8, made of a suitable screen of comparatively large or coarse mesh.
This cover is of the same diameter as the distance across the than, and thus covers the blades entirely.
The numeral 9 indicates the inlet to the Specification of Letters hatent.

uniform tubular construction, and ada ted to receive the top or open end of a stoc 'ng by having the stocking slipped over the said end as shown in Fi The numeral 12 lndicates the outlet from the casing and this I prefer to'form, as shown, as an elbow, to prevent the stockings being thrown to points other than the proper receptacle provided therefor. When it is desired to operate the device, the stocking is slip ed over theend of the tubular portion o the funnel, just sulficiently to engage it from falling, and while belng so placed, it is necessarily held b the hand of the operator at that point an this will permit the end or foot portion to be drawn into the tube 11, and the release of the (stocking by the operator will permit the entire stocking to pass into the casing, having been turned during of the process of entering 1t.
The casing is larger internall the fan, and when t is drawn into the casing, it will strike the screen disk which covers the blades, thus preventing it from becoming entangled therewith; the centrifugal force of the fan will throw the stocking toward the inner wall of the casing, and it will pass out of the exit tube 12 at the bottom.
l-lavin thus fully described my invention, what I c aim and desirf to secure by Letters Patent is 1. In a stocking turning machine a casing,
than the e stocking a revolving fan located therein, a screen covering the faceof sai dfan, said casing having an inlet; a funnel secured to said inlet adapted to receive a, stocking and turn it while being drawn into the casing by the action of the fan. i
2. In a stocking turning machine, a casing, a fan, located. therein, a erforated cover-for said fan, and a tube lea ing to the face of said fan adapted to engage and hold a stocking while the action of said fan turns it and draws it into the casing.
3. in a stocking turninginachine, a casinghaving inlet and outlet openings, a re- In testimon whereof I affix my signature, 1n presence 0 two wltnesses.
