JOHN REEVES RUE, 3a., or PITTSFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR 'ro GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
ELECTRIC DRIVE FOR SPINNING MACHINES OR THE LIKE.
Application filed May 14, 1920. Serial No. 381,256.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN REEVES RUE, Jr.,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Pittsfield, in the county of Berkshire, State 5 of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electric Drives for Spinning Machines or the like, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to the electric drive for spinning machines or the like.
One of the objects of my invention is to provide a simple and direct electric drive for a spinning machine or the like. A further object is to provide an arrangement in which the driving motor shaft takes the place of the usual spinning machine drive shaft.
In carrying my invention into effect, I mount the electric driving motor for the spinning machine on the end frame of the spinning machine in such a way that the rotating element of the motor is mounted on the spinning machine drive shaft; in other words, in such a way that the motor shaft serves as the usual spinning machine drive shaft. In accordance with my invention I mount the electric motor between the decks of spindles and drive the spindles from both ends of the motor shaft. The motor shaft will be parallel with the end support for the spinning machine, and the usual construction will cause the motor shaft to be in a vertical position. More specifically, in accordance with my invention, I mount the electric driving motor in a vertical position on the end support of the spinning machine and drive one or more decks of spindles from one end of the motor shaft and the twist gear mechanism from the same end of the motor shaft. The remainder of the decks of spindles is driven from the other end of the motor shaft.
For a better understanding of my invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawing which shows an end section of the supportln frame for a spinning machine and the e ectric driving m'otor mounted to drive the spindles and thread twisting mechanism in accordance with my invention.
Referring to the drawing, it will be observed that I have merely indicated a part of two decks of spindles 10 and 11 respectively and thread twisting mechanism 12 and 13 which cooperate with the decks of spindles 10 and 11 respectively. The frame supporting the spindles and twist mechanism is provided with an end section 14, which in the usual arrangement of spinning machines is supported in a vertical position. An endless belt 15 is provided for driving the deck of spindles 10 and an endless belt 16 is provided for driving the deck of spindles 11. The electric motor 17 is mounted on the end section 14 between the tWo decks of spindles with its shaft 18 vertical, the arrangement being such that the motor shaft 18 takes the, place of the usual spinning machine drive shaft. A pulley 19 on the upper end of the motor shaft 18 is provided for directly driving the endless belt 15. Gearing driven from this same end of the motor shaft and enclosed within a casing 20 for driving the twist mechanism 12 and also the twist mechanism 13 through the shaft 21, is provided. On the lower end of the motor shaft there is provided a pulley 22 for driving the endless belt 16 for the lower deck of spindles. The upper end of the motor shaft is shown considerably longer than the loweriend of the shaft merely for the purpose of illustration, but in practice this will not necessarily be the case.
It will be observed that my arrangement provides means whereby the decks of spindles and the twist mechanism can be directly driven by the electric motor, no gearing being provided between the motor and the pulleys for driving thesendless belts for the decks of spindles, the motor shaft taking the place of the usual vertical spinning machine drive shaft. lt is further apparent that my arrangement has advantagesof simplicity of arrangement which render it less expensive to construct and more reliable in operation.
In accordance with the provisions of the patent statutes, I have described the principle of operation of my invention together with the apparatus which I now consider to represent the best embodiment thereof; but I desire to have it understood that the apparatus shown is onlyillustrative and that the invention can be carried out by other means.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
1. The combination with aispinning machine having two decks of spindles and a frame for supporting the same, of an elec-" tric driving motor for the spindles mounted on the frame between the decks, and a driving means on each end of the motor shaft for operating the decks of spindles.
2. The combination with a spinning machine having two decks of spindles and a frame for supporting the same, of means for driving the spindles comprising a shaft on the supporting frame, an electric driving motor for the spindles mounted on the frame between the decks with its rotating element mounted on said shaft, and a driving means for each deck of spindles on each end of the motor shaft.
3. The combination of a spinning machine having two decks of spindles and a supporting frame for the same having a vertical end section, of an electric driving motor for the spindles mounted on the end section between the decks with the shaft of the motor vertical, an endless belt for driving each deck of spindles, and a pulley on each end belts. I 4. The combination with a'spinning machine having two decks of spindles and twist mechanisms, a supporting, frame for the spinning machine having a vertical end section, an electric driving motor for the spindles and twist mechanisms mounted on the end section between the decks with the shaft of the motor vertical, an endless belt for driving each deck of spindles, a pulley on one end of the motor shaft for driving one of the belts, means on this end of the motor shaft for operating the twist mechanisms for both decks, and a pulley on the other end of the motor shaft for driving the other belt.
- In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of May, 1920.
