- This invention relates to automatic speed controlling devices and is designed primarily for use in connection with variable speed transmission mechanisms, the present construction being adapted preferably for controlling the various units of a cloth treating machine, although it will be understood that it will work equally as well with all classes of machinery having units requiring the change of speed for causing the units to operate in absolute harmony.
- a further feature of the invention is the provision of means operated by the material being treated for controlling the movement of the automatic speed changing control.
- a further feature of the invention is in so constructing the speed changing mechanism that the motor employed for operating the same may be reversed or driven in either direction.
- a further feature of the invention is in so constructing the speed controlling parts for the variable speed mechanism that the shifting of the parts of the variable speed mechanism for changing the speed thereof will automatically and intermittently break the circuit to the motor employed for driving the speed controlling mechanism.

- Figure 3 is a detail end elevation of the frame of the transmission mechanism with the automatic speed controlling device attached thereto, showing parts thereof by diagram,
- Figure 4 is a side elevation of a magnetically controlled switch
- Figure 5 is an end elevation thereof.
- 1 indicates a machine for treating cloth or similar fabric, which in the present instance is divided into units 2, 3 and 4, which are driven from variable speed mechanisms 5, 6 and 7 respectively, and in devices of this class it frequently occurs that the strip of fabric 8, during the treatment in the unit number 2, will contract, while the same fabric whenpassing through the unit number 3 will expand, consequently it is neccsary to drive the variable speed mechanism 5 at a different speed from that at which the variable speed mechanism 6 is driven, and in some instances it is also necessary to operate the variable speed mechanism 7 at a still different speed from the other two mechanisms, and it also frequently occurs that the ratios of speedwill change at irregular intervals thereby requiring that the speed changing mechanism be intermittently operated for practically instantly compensating for the variations in the speed of travel of the different sections of the fabric.
- variable speed mechanisms consisting preferably of a pair of blocks 9 and 10, preferably of insulating material, which blocks are slidably mounted on the end bar of a frame 11, such as is used for carrying variable speed transmission cones 12, said blocks being slidably mounted on the frame and movable independently of each other.
- Extending transversely through the frame 11 is the usual form of threaded shaft 13 to which are connected levers 14 for controlling the sets of cones 12, and through the medium of which the speed of the variable gear 19 which meshes with a pinion 20 contated for moving the block 9 lengthwise.
- block 10 is provided with a recess 23 in which is located a contact 24, the ends of the contact being bent upwardly and curved to form contact fingers 25 and 26 respectively, and these fingers are adapted to engage res ectivelywith contact plates 27 and 28 on he under face of the block 9.
- the plates 27 and 28 are so positioned that the contact fin ers may remain out of contact with both of t e plates, but when the block 10 is moved longitudinally in either direction one of the fingers of the contact 24 will be brought into engagement with one or the other of the contact plates 27 or 28 thereby closing a circuit through a wire 29, connected with the contact 24, and through a wire 30 connected with the contact plate 27, or a wire 31 connected with the contact plate 28, the closing of a circuit causing the motor 15 to drive the worm 17, the direction of travel of the motor and worm dependin upon whether the circuit is closed through te wire 30 or 31.
- any suitable means may be employed for moving the block 10 lengthwise, ut in the present instance a cable 32 is connected with one end of the block 10 and extended over a sheave 33 so as to properly guide the cable, and as shown in Figure 1 of the drawings, the cable associated with the block on the variable speed mechanism 5 is connected with a hand operated drum 34, so that the speed of this particular unit may be manually operated while the cables connected with the blocks on the variable speed mechanisms 6 and 7 are arranged for automatic operation.
- idlers 35 and 36 which are located, respectively, between the units 2 and 3 and 3 and 4, the idlers bein rotatably mounted and vertically adjustab e in guides 37 and 38 respectively, and as the strip of fabric passes below these idlers, and in fact supports the idlers, the contraction or expansion of the fabric will control the positions of the idlers and determine the positions of the blocks 10 attached to the cables connected with said idlers, consequently the speed of the transmission mechanisms 6 and 7 will be automatically controlled.
- Thecables 32 move the blocks 10 in one direction only, and the cables exert an endwise pull on the blocks 10 only in the event of an expansion of the fabric or through the manual operation of the drum 34, consequently other means must be provided for moving the blocks 10 in the opposite direction.
- a spring 39 is connected to the opposite end of the block 10 from that to which the cable 32 is connected, the opposite end of the spring being connected to a part of the frame in which the block 10 is mounted, consequently as the tension on the cables 32 is released the springs '39 will move the blocks 10in the opposite direction, and if the cables are sufficiently slackened will move the fingers 25 into engagement with the lates 27 and close the circuit through the wires 29 and 30, thereby energizing the motor 15 and setting up rotation of the adjusting screw 21, the direction of travel of the motor causing the block 9 to move to the right.
- the block 10 may be made of such a length that in the event the cable 32 should break, the spring 39 will practically instantly move the contact 24 entirely past the plate 27, the movement of the block 10 being so rapid that the operation of the motor will be very slight.
- the direction of travel of the motor 15 is controlled through the medium of switch tongues 40 and contact plates 41 and 42, the plates 41 and 42 being placed at opposite sidesof the switch tongues so that the tongues may be swung in opposite directions for successively making contacts with the plates.
- the movement of the switch tongues 40 is controlled by magnets 43 and 44 with which co-operates a common armature 45, said armature being connected to an insulating block 46 to which the switch tongues 40 are also connected, the block 46 having pivots 47 at its ends so arranged that the block will rock on the pivots and move the switch tongues into engagement with either the plates 41 or 42.
- One end of the armature 45 is associated with the magnet 43, while the opposite end thereof is'associated with the magnet 44, consequently when a circuit is formed through the wire 29, finger 25, contact plate 27 and wire 30, the end of the armature 45 co-operating with the magnet 43 will be energized and drawn downwardly, thereby swinging the switch tongues 40 into engggement with contact plates 41, while should t e circuit be formed through the wire 29, finger 26, contact plate 28 and wire 31, the magnet 44 will be energized and the end of the armature co-operating therewith moved downwardly thereby swinging the switch tongues in the opposite direction and into engagement with the plates 42, this movement reversing the rotation of the motor 15 and causing the adjusting screw 21 to move the block 9 in the opposite direction from that previously described.
- both magnets are de-energized the tongues 40 will automatically move to a neutral position between the contact plates 41 and 42.
- Power may be supplied to the variable speed transmission devices 5,6 and 7 from any suitable source such as a motor, line shaft,
- variable speed transmission devices 5, 6 and 7 through the medium of belts 51, 52 and 53.
- the power is transmitted from the variable speed transmission devices to units 2, 3 and 4 by means of belts 54, 55 and 56 as here shown, but any other suitable means may be used.
- the fabric or other material being treated is indicated as being unwound from a roll 57 and rewound on a roll 58.
- any expansion of the fabric passing below the idlers 35 or 36 Wlll cause said idlers to descend and move the respective block 10, to which the idler is attached endwise, thereby moving the finger 26 into engagement with the plate 28, whereupon a circuit will be formed through the wires 29 and 31 and the magnet 44 being thus energized, will swing the tongues 40 into ongagement with the plates 42, and as this c1rcuit is closed, the motor 15 will be energized and driven, so long as the contact finger 26 is in engagement with the contact plate 28, and this registration will continue so long as the idler continues to. descend.
- the endwise movement of the block 10 will cease but the operation of the motor will continue to move the block 9 lengthwise until the plate 28 is moved out of engagement with the contact finger 26, the operation of the motor also operating the shaft 13 for changing the speed of the variable speed mechanism, the change 1n speed being such as to regulate the operation of the particular unit to which the variable s eed mechanism is connected until another change occurs in the fabric.

AUTOMATIC SPEED-CONTROLLING DEVICE.
Application filed February 6, 1922. Serial No. 534,631.
This invention relates to automatic speed controlling devices and is designed primarily for use in connection with variable speed transmission mechanisms, the present construction being adapted preferably for controlling the various units of a cloth treating machine, although it will be understood that it will work equally as well with all classes of machinery having units requiring the change of speed for causing the units to operate in absolute harmony.
In treating cloth, it frequently occurs that the fiber of the cloth will be caused to contract or shrink in passing through one unit while at a subsequent unit the treatment will result in the expansion of the cloth or fiber, consequently the speed at which the operating parts of the different units s driven must necessarily be varied, and the prime feature of the means in connection with the variable speed gears for constantly changing and unifying the speed at which the different units are driven, depending upon the condition of the material as it is passing through the various units.
A further feature of the invention is the provision of means operated by the material being treated for controlling the movement of the automatic speed changing control.
A further feature of the invention is in so constructing the speed changing mechanism that the motor employed for operating the same may be reversed or driven in either direction.
And a further feature of the invention is in so constructing the speed controlling parts for the variable speed mechanism that the shifting of the parts of the variable speed mechanism for changing the speed thereof will automatically and intermittently break the circuit to the motor employed for driving the speed controlling mechanism.
Other objects and advantages will be hereinafter more fully set forth and pointed out in the accompanying specification.
In the accompanying drawings,
F igure l is a diagrammatic View of a ma chine having a plurality of units and individual variable speed mechanisms for driv ing the separate units,
Figure 2 is a top plan view of a variable speed mechanism showing the automatic control thereon,
present invention is the provision of Figure 3 is a detail end elevation of the frame of the transmission mechanism with the automatic speed controlling device attached thereto, showing parts thereof by diagram,
Figure 4 is a side elevation of a magnetically controlled switch, and
Figure 5 is an end elevation thereof.
Referring to the drawings, 1 indicates a machine for treating cloth or similar fabric, which in the present instance is divided into units 2, 3 and 4, which are driven from variable speed mechanisms 5, 6 and 7 respectively, and in devices of this class it frequently occurs that the strip of fabric 8, during the treatment in the unit number 2, will contract, while the same fabric whenpassing through the unit number 3 will expand, consequently it is neccsary to drive the variable speed mechanism 5 at a different speed from that at which the variable speed mechanism 6 is driven, and in some instances it is also necessary to operate the variable speed mechanism 7 at a still different speed from the other two mechanisms, and it also frequently occurs that the ratios of speedwill change at irregular intervals thereby requiring that the speed changing mechanism be intermittently operated for practically instantly compensating for the variations in the speed of travel of the different sections of the fabric.
In accomplishing these Various results, means are provided for automatically and independently changing and controlling the speed of travel of the different variable speed mechanisms, consisting preferably of a pair of blocks 9 and 10, preferably of insulating material, which blocks are slidably mounted on the end bar of a frame 11, such as is used for carrying variable speed transmission cones 12, said blocks being slidably mounted on the frame and movable independently of each other. Extending transversely through the frame 11 is the usual form of threaded shaft 13 to which are connected levers 14 for controlling the sets of cones 12, and through the medium of which the speed of the variable gear 19 which meshes with a pinion 20 contated for moving the block 9 lengthwise. The
Any suitable means may be employed for moving the block 10 lengthwise, ut in the present instance a cable 32 is connected with one end of the block 10 and extended over a sheave 33 so as to properly guide the cable, and as shown in Figure 1 of the drawings, the cable associated with the block on the variable speed mechanism 5 is connected with a hand operated drum 34, so that the speed of this particular unit may be manually operated while the cables connected with the blocks on the variable speed mechanisms 6 and 7 are arranged for automatic operation. These latter cables are connected with idlers 35 and 36 which are located, respectively, between the units 2 and 3 and 3 and 4, the idlers bein rotatably mounted and vertically adjustab e in guides 37 and 38 respectively, and as the strip of fabric passes below these idlers, and in fact supports the idlers, the contraction or expansion of the fabric will control the positions of the idlers and determine the positions of the blocks 10 attached to the cables connected with said idlers, consequently the speed of the transmission mechanisms 6 and 7 will be automatically controlled.
Thecables 32 move the blocks 10 in one direction only, and the cables exert an endwise pull on the blocks 10 only in the event of an expansion of the fabric or through the manual operation of the drum 34, consequently other means must be provided for moving the blocks 10 in the opposite direction. In this instance a spring 39 is connected to the opposite end of the block 10 from that to which the cable 32 is connected, the opposite end of the spring being connected to a part of the frame in which the block 10 is mounted, consequently as the tension on the cables 32 is released the springs '39 will move the blocks 10in the opposite direction, and if the cables are sufficiently slackened will move the fingers 25 into engagement with the lates 27 and close the circuit through the wires 29 and 30, thereby energizing the motor 15 and setting up rotation of the adjusting screw 21, the direction of travel of the motor causing the block 9 to move to the right. This movement will continue until the block 10 stops its movement and theblock 9 continues to move a sufiicient distance to break connection between the plate 27 and finger 25. The block 10 may be made of such a length that in the event the cable 32 should break, the spring 39 will practically instantly move the contact 24 entirely past the plate 27, the movement of the block 10 being so rapid that the operation of the motor will be very slight. The direction of travel of the motor 15 is controlled through the medium of switch tongues 40 and contact plates 41 and 42, the plates 41 and 42 being placed at opposite sidesof the switch tongues so that the tongues may be swung in opposite directions for successively making contacts with the plates.
The movement of the switch tongues 40 is controlled by magnets 43 and 44 with which co-operates a common armature 45, said armature being connected to an insulating block 46 to which the switch tongues 40 are also connected, the block 46 having pivots 47 at its ends so arranged that the block will rock on the pivots and move the switch tongues into engagement with either the plates 41 or 42. One end of the armature 45 is associated with the magnet 43, while the opposite end thereof is'associated with the magnet 44, consequently when a circuit is formed through the wire 29, finger 25, contact plate 27 and wire 30, the end of the armature 45 co-operating with the magnet 43 will be energized and drawn downwardly, thereby swinging the switch tongues 40 into engggement with contact plates 41, while should t e circuit be formed through the wire 29, finger 26, contact plate 28 and wire 31, the magnet 44 will be energized and the end of the armature co-operating therewith moved downwardly thereby swinging the switch tongues in the opposite direction and into engagement with the plates 42, this movement reversing the rotation of the motor 15 and causing the adjusting screw 21 to move the block 9 in the opposite direction from that previously described. When both magnets are de-energized the tongues 40 will automatically move to a neutral position between the contact plates 41 and 42.
Power may be supplied to the variable speed transmission devices 5,6 and 7 from any suitable source such as a motor, line shaft,
counter shaft or the like through the medium of belts, chains gearing, etc. In the illustration embodiment of the invention shown in the drawings power is supplied by electric motors 48, 49 and 50 to the respective variable speed transmission devices 5, 6 and 7 through the medium of belts 51, 52 and 53. The power is transmitted from the variable speed transmission devices to units 2, 3 and 4 by means of belts 54, 55 and 56 as here shown, but any other suitable means may be used. The fabric or other material being treated is indicated as being unwound from a roll 57 and rewound on a roll 58.
In operation, after the drum 34 has been operated manually for regulating the speed of the mechanism 5, any expansion of the fabric passing below the idlers 35 or 36 Wlll cause said idlers to descend and move the respective block 10, to which the idler is attached endwise, thereby moving the finger 26 into engagement with the plate 28, whereupon a circuit will be formed through the wires 29 and 31 and the magnet 44 being thus energized, will swing the tongues 40 into ongagement with the plates 42, and as this c1rcuit is closed, the motor 15 will be energized and driven, so long as the contact finger 26 is in engagement with the contact plate 28, and this registration will continue so long as the idler continues to. descend. As soon, however, as the idler has reached the limit of its downward movement, the endwise movement of the block 10 will cease but the operation of the motor will continue to move the block 9 lengthwise until the plate 28 is moved out of engagement with the contact finger 26, the operation of the motor also operating the shaft 13 for changing the speed of the variable speed mechanism, the change 1n speed being such as to regulate the operation of the particular unit to which the variable s eed mechanism is connected until another change occurs in the fabric. Should the fabric begin to contract or shorten, the idlers will be elevated and the tension removed from the cables connected to the blocks 10, whereupon the springs 39 will move the blocks lengthwise in the opposite direction a sufiicient distance to form a circuit through the finger 25 and contact plate 27, thereby moving the switch tongues 40 into engagement with the plates 41 and causing the motor to operate in reverse movement, this operation continuing until the block 10 has been moved to a neutral point and the contact 27 moved but of efigagement with the finger 25. It will thus be seen that the fluctuating movement of the idlers 35 and 36 will automatically control the rate of speed of the variable speed mechanisms 6 and 7, and it will likewise be seen that the operatlon of the shaft 13 for regulating the speed of the cones 12 will act to break the circuit between the contact plates 27 and 28 and the contact 24.
