The nozzle is provided with an internal rotatable picking tube having teeth in its outer end whereby the cotton fibers are seized and To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, \Voonnnnr K. DANA, of lVestbrook, in the county of Cumberland and State of Maine, have invented certain twisted to remove them from the bell. As 60 ,5 new and useful Improvements in Vacuunr here shown, the picking tube d has at aeh Heads for Cottonl ickingg,- Machines, of end an external ring or collar d and (P, /which the following is a specification. which are adjacent to internal annular 9 My invention relates to that class of cotton shoulders 11' and a in the nozzle proper and picking machines which employ vacuum balls are interposed between the rings and a 1.0 he ds or nozzles with rotating picking tubes the shoulders forming ball bearings on I t by mac-11 the cotton is twisted from the boll which the picking tube (Z is supported and had drawn into the opening of the nozzle. on which it rotates. At the outer end of Hitherto these picking tubes have been to the picking tube (Z which preferably protated either by means of flexible shafts lll8 jects somewhat beyond the end of the nozzle 709 W chanically operated or by vanes or blades proper, are teeth which are adapted to ent fixed to the outside of the picking tube and grace. the cotton fibers. These teeth are operated by the in-rushine air currents. prcfcably on the inner surface and just The former class of devices involved more within the end and as here shown, they or less complicated mechanism for rotating, consist of sharpened pins 7:. set in the pick- '35 the flexible shafts and the latter class inin; tube near the end and inclining slightly volved dividing the iii-coining air into two rear ard or in direction in which the air is parts'with the result that the pressure at the mouth of the picking tube was materially moving.
