PATENT OFFICE:

THOMAS WILLIAM norm, or 'STALEYBRIDGE, ENGLAND.

YARN-CLEANING DEVICE.

H L'r, a subject of the King of Great Britam and Ireland, residing at 79 \Villwood Terrace, \Vakefield Road, Stale'ybridge, in

the county of Chester, England, engineer, have invented new and useful Improvements in Yarn-Cleaning Devices, of which the fol- 7 i .The ordinary or lowing is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements connectedwith or applicable to tension imparting or clearing mechanism used on machines for dealing. with yarn, thread, and thelike.

In particular it wherein. is employed -one or'inore disks or clearing devices .which is or are rotatable or movable relatively. I

best known type of ten sion or drag device at present employed in.-' cludes a suitable guide or guidesand a drag board covered with flannel'orsuch like, and

this has been extensively, used, and while '.considerable fly or waste :is produced by' directed tq that end.

this system. the method makes,piecing-up and threading a very simple matter.

.lVith the rotatable tension disks or de-' vices, while better yarn and less waste is produced, the employment of the rota-table tension devices gives -more work to the attendaiit because it is necessary to pass the yarn or ends between the rotatable parts and the yarn must be accurately guided and Now, according to my invention, I provide, in combination .with, said tension devices, means which insure that the yarn is automatically directed between the rotatable devices, that is, by the mere pressing down of the yarn between co-acting guides, the same is directed lIltO- position exactly ready for entrance between the rotatable devices, with result, that, immediately the pull or tension comes on the yarn, the same necessarily passes intoposition and between the rotatable devices which are to exercise the clearing and tensioning effect.

The object in view can be carried out by various simple devices, as for example, by using oppositely disposed inclined planes one front and the other back of the tension device, the planes deflecting the yarn and throwing it in exact alinenient with the entrance level at, which the meeting faces Specification of Letters Patent.

. end again breaks.

relates to means for use .in combination or in connection with that class of yarn "tensionilng or clearing device Patented July 4, 1916. 1916. Sei'ia1 No.95, 614

I contact. Provision is also made whereby the yarn can slip below one'or both of said inclined planes, with the idea, that, immediately tension comes on the yarn, the same s drawn into a more or less straight path .and so is properly disposed between the rotatable or other tension devices and con- .tinues to pass in proper fashion until the In the attached drawings I illustrate how my invention canbe carried into practical effect, the said drawing showing a rotatable disk tension device with directing contriv-i' ances which deflect and guide the yarn in most automatic threading can be effected.

Referring to the drawings; Figure 1 shows in side elevation my complete selfthreading tension device." Fig,,2is a plan view of Fig. 1. Fig. '3 is a Section. Fig. 3 is a detail view. F ig. 4 shows a separate plan view of the carrying base or castsiron such manner that exceedingly rapid andalsupporting bracket. Fig. 5 is. detail view 0f the rear wire. Fig. (3 is a detail view of a modified form of'rear wire. The cast-iron bracket ais adapted tobe fixed to a railor support such as b and is held by a pinching screw a or otherwise. To the bracket (in is attached a slotted steel guide plate 0 and said. bracket (1. has a forward bifurcated pbrtion a The bracket has also a cast projection or upstanding portion a and is bored for the beai-ingpin e to which is fixed the lower disk hich preferably has a shallow central its upper face. Resting upon tl ie' lower disk f is the upper or loose dished

disk

9 which is adapted to receive weights or washers g. I. find that for the purpose of iy invention, wire deflecting devices serve well and these I preferably apply to or carry from the cast-iron brackets. In thecase of ascending yarn, I use a wire device which has an upright limb h and is then bent downward and forward, as at 71, to produce an inclined directing plane. The upright limb IL- is fixed in a hole a in the cast-iron bracket a, and held by a pinching screw if, or otherwise, and, the lower end of the inclined limb h is bent in, a little at h. This inclined limb does not reach down to th'ecastpression on iron bracket 0, but terminates about. the line limb which is. oppositely, disposed 'to the other inclined limb of the first bent wire. In the drawing, I show a curved limb i (see more particularly Fig. 5). This limb may be bent or provided witha loop or eye, below' whichthe yarn can pass to prevent lifting of the upper-disk. I have not however found this necessary. The wire of the limb o'r -loop i is bent and continued downward so that the complete guide .can be fixed by pushing the two ends into holes aa in the cast-iron bracket as shown. I may produce both the yarndirecting planes from one length of wire or in the form of a complete device readily attachable to the cast-iron bracket.

My invention includes directing inclines,

-- As thus-liberated from the influence of said inclines, &c., the pull or tension. of the yarn directs the end properly between the ,rotary or other tension or clearing-devices instantly and without requiring skill, the inclines, &c., themselves insuring automati'c deflection and direction.

In the drawings, the yarn isshown as passing upward, then through the tension motion and over the bar or ledge a and around the post constituted by the wire i to ,an ordinary drop wire j and then upward again, but the manner of directing the yarn would vary "e'ry considerably.

It will be understood, that my improvements are applicable to a variety of tension.

or clearing devices having rotatable or disk like elements and the exact construction of the directing inclines, guides, or the'like would require modification according as one or'more ends are dealt with, and according; as to whether the yarn or the like passes up or down to the winding on or like devices. When the yarnvwould pass upward, I- might provide the rear wire '1? with an overhanging' hook or curl'su'ch as i. see Fig. 6. I may dish ,or recessfthelddttom or under face of the lower disk f and I may cut a number of holes or slots in said lower disk f as shown at f in the detail Fig. 3 I declare that what I claim is.)

A yarn tension device having a bracket,

' a slotted steel guide attached thereto, a for ward bifurcated extension on said bracket having a laterally extending lug, rotatable adjacent tension disksadeflecting guide adjustably securedin said lug in advance of the tension disks and to one side thereof, said guide comprising a wire-having a limb that extends upwardly then downward-and forward and then slightly curvedly inwardly to produce an inclined directing plane terminating in line with the contacting faces of. the disks, a-ncl'a double curved defleeting guide inre ar ofsaid disks, said. guides adapted to throw' the yarn-tangeir;

tially to the disks and thereafter permitting s'ufiicient release to effect threading.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name tothis specification -in the'presence of two subscribing witnesses.
