- the looper-shaft 30 is given its rocking
- the machine frame includes the usual goosemovement, to move the loopers endwise into and neck 1' which terminates at its free end in the out of their respective needle-loops, by means of head2carrying the reciprocatory needle-bar3and the eccentric 32 on the lower rotary shaft 16.
- pitman 34 is connected by the link 38 to the lever 39 fulcrumed on the stationary stud-pin 40 which is supported by the side wall of the arm 15 above the stud-pin 37.
- the lever 39 is ball-and-socket connected at its free end by means of a link 41 to a crank-arm 42 fixed to the looper-shaft 30 to rock the latter.
- the free end 0 of the pitman 34 is caused by the guide 36 to move in an egg-shaped path 50.
- the egg-shaped path 50 is curved in the same direction and substantially coincides over a considerable portion of its length with the arcuate path 51 of the lower end of the link 38.
- This condition causes the looper 31 to move slowly or dwell in its reversal of motion at the end of its loop-seizing stroke.
- the points on the looper path shown in Fig. 14 represent the successive positions of the looper beak for equiangularly spaced positions of the mainshaft. The bunching together of these points at the dotted line position of the looper in Fig. 14 thus indicates the relatively slow motion of the looper at that end of its orbital path.
- the fork 55 has a rectangular hub-portion 59 which is pressed upon by the leaf -spring 60 to yieldingly retain the fork 55 in its full line working position, Figs. 6 and 9, or in its dotted line threading position.
- the usual thread-nipping springs 61 are also mounted on the bar 58 and are actuated by the eccentric 62 on the shaft 16.
- the thread-controlling mechanism is protected by the cover 63 which is hinged at 64 to swing to dotted line position, Fig. 6, to expose the thread-controlling devices for threading or other purposes.
- the thread-controlling devices in the arm 14 are separated from the space within the worksupporting arm 15 by the oil-tight partition wall 65 carrying one of the ball-bearings 66 for the shaft 16.
- the aperture in the partition wall65 which receives the ball-bearing 66 is closed at one end by the washer 67 so that oil splashed from the oil-sump 68 in the work-supporting arm 15 by the feedand looper-actuating eccentrics will not flood the ball-bearing and work through to the thread-controlling mechanism and soil the thread.
- the loopers 31 are disposed within acompartment 31*, Fig. 4, in the free end'of the work-supporting arm which is separated by the partition 31 from the space in the arm 15 housing the feed and looper-actuating mechanism.
- a looper-thread tension device comprising a pair of tension discs 69, Fig. 5, loose on the stem 70 of the headed pin '10 which passes through the sleeve '71 held by the setscrew 72 in the aperture '73 in they wall of the arm 14.
- the stem 70' of the headed ,pin 76 is surrounded within the sleeve 71 by a coil-spring '74 one end of which abuts against the end wall 75 0f said sleeve.
- the other end of said spring 74 bears against a nut 76 threaded onto the stem 70' and slidably received in the sleeve 71.
- a pin 77 projecting from the nut 76 is received in a longitudinal slot 78 in the sleeve '11 and prevents the nut from turning relative to the sleeve. Adjustment of the tension is readily effected by turning the headed pin '70 by used a screwdriver.
- the looper-threads are led from the supply to the apertured guide-plate 79, Fig. 2, on the beltcasing 18; thence through the longitudinally slotted guide tubes 80 mounted on the belt-casing 18 to the lower end of the latter; thence laterally along the front side of the laterally extending arm 14 through the longitudinally slotted guide tubes 81 to and through the tension device 69; thence through the aperture 82 in the arm 14 to and through the thread-nipping and thread-controlling devices; and thence out of the laterally extending arm through the slotted passageway 82, Fig. 2, and into the longitudinal'-.
- a swingable cover-plate 85 guards the tension-device while the machine is in use. This cover-plate is easily swung upwardly, Fig. 1, to expose the tension-device 69 for threading or adjusting purposes.
- the thread-guide 84 is preferably mounted on the needle-guard 86 which rises from the cylindrical plug 87, Fig. 4, mounted in a hole in the end wall 88of the work-supporting arm.
- the plug 8'7 is held in adjusted position by means of the set-screw 89. It is adjustable endwise to set the needle-guards in proper relation to the needles.
- the loopers 31 may be exposed for threading and inspection by swinging open the doors 90 about their hinge-screws 91 at the free end of the work-supporting arm.
