SKEIN HOLDER.
Application filed March 13, 1925. Serial No. 15,208.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, MAX O'r'ro CLAUSS, a citizen of the United States, residing in New York city, in the county of New York, in the State'of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Skein- Holders, of which the following is a specification. i
The invention relates to an improvement in skein holders for winding machines-and the like. I r
The object of the invention is to improve and simplify the construction and arrangement of the parts of a skein holder for winding machines in order to facilitate the winding operation and to reduce the cost of the apparatus. -To "these ends the invention consists in the improved skein holder hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings illustrating the preferred form of the invention, Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the improved skein holder, together with part of a windingmechanism in which it is used; Fig.2 is an end elevation of the parts shown in Fig.1; Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the skein holder with a completed and labeled skein thereon; and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the tubular band which is used to enclose the .skein threads while the skein is still on the skein holder at the completion of the skein winding operation.
The improved skein holder, as illustrated in the drawings, comprises a flat, elongated member or arm 5 consisting of a single piece of metal or wood. To prevent the threads from spreading during the winding operation one end of the arm 5 is notched, as at 6. In order that the completed skein may be readily removed from the holder at the completion of the winding operation, the other end of the arm 5is curved orarcuate in shape, as shown at 7. The projection 8 at this end of the arm 5 acts as a guard and prevents the thread from spreading in that direction. This end of the arm is also provided with the slit 9 in which the end of the thread is caught at the beginning of the winding operation. Upon the completion of the winding operation, the tubular band or label 10 shown in Fig. 4 is slipped longitudinally over the skein threads and thefree end of the arm 5 and slide along to substantially the middle of the skein, as shown laterally along the curved sur ace 7 to free it from the arm 5 and then the part of the skein still remaining on the an longitudinally therefrom. The skein isnow in condition for packing in the box in which it is marketed, the loose end 12 indicating to the user the thread end to be pulled to unwind the skein without entanglement while still enclosed in label 10.
The improved skein holder, as described above, may be used in connection with any preferred form of winding mechanism It may be held stationary and a flyer used to wind the threads longitudinally around the arm 5, as is common practice with skein holders of this type heretofore in use, or it may be so mounted as to turn and thereby form the skein. This latter method is illustrated in the drawings. For this purpose one end of theskein holder, the upper end as shown in the drawings, is provided with an offset arm or support 14, the free end of which extends parallelly with the arm 5 and is mounted on a shaft 15. The length of the support 14 is such that the shaft 15 is about opposite the middle point between the notch 6, and the curved end 7 of the arm 5, so that when the shaft 15 is rotated the ends 6 and 7 of the arm 5 will move in substantially the same circuit. The shaft 15 is journaled in bearings 16 formed in the upper ends of the uprights 17 rising from the base 18. A sprocket wheel 20 mounted on the shaft 15 between the bearings 16 is connected with a second sprocket wheel 21 by means of a chain 22. The sprocket wheel 21 is mounted on a shaft indicated at 23 which may be driven from any convenient source of power.
The thread 25 is fed to the rotating skein holder 5 during the winding operation from a spool 26 loosely mounted on an upright pin 27 supported in a frame 28. A thread eye 29 secured in the front edge of the frame 28 serves to properly guide the thread to the skein holder. Upon the completion of the skein winding operation the thread connecting the skein with the spool 26 .is severed about opposite the shaft 15 and thereupon the tubular band 10 is slipped onto the skein the tubular band or.
is slipped threads and moved along the skein holder until about opposite the shaft 15. If preferred, the band or holder may be in the form of a blank which is wrapped around the middle of the skein threads and then secured in the usual manner. I
Having thus described the invention what I claim as new is 2- 1. A skein holder for winding machines comprising a flat, elongated member consisting of a single piece for supporting the thread loops during the skein winding operation, and means .l'or supporting the skein holder near one of its extremities to permit a tubular bandto he slipped longitudinally ontoand over the threads while the skein is still on the holder at the completion of the winding operation.
2. A. skein holder for winding machines comprising a llat, elongated member consisting of a single piece for supporting the thread loops durir' the winding operation,
said member being supported near one of its extrcn'lities to permit a band to be placed around the skcin threads while the skein is still on the holder at the completion of the winding operation, one end of the member beingformed to permit a lateral displacemcnt of the skein threads therefrom.
3. A skein holder for winding machines consisting ot a single flat, elongated member supported near one of its extremities so as to permit a band to be placed around the skein while the latter is on the holder, one end of the holder being so sha ed as to permit the ready disengagement o the skein loops therefrom.
4. A skein holder for winding machines comprising a flat, elongated member consisting of a single piece for supporting the thread loops during the winding operation, one end of the member being so shaped as to permit the ready disengagement of the skein loops therefrom.
5. A skein holder for winding machines comprising a flat, elongated member consisting of a single piece for supporting the thread loops during the winding operation, one end of the member being provided with a notch to hold the threads during the winding operation, the other end of the member being curved to permit of the lateral displacement of the skein loops therefrom.
(5. A skein holder for winding machines comprising an elongated member consisting of a single piece having its ends adapted to support the thread loops during the winding operation, one end of the member being so shaped as to permitthe ready disengagement of the skein loops therefrom.
