UNITEDxsTATEs PATENT OFFICE w CLQTH 'anvv1-1xmnn Aun` lvnnisunna` PaulfE.` Raymond, Greenwich, Conn. Application November 21, "1933, serial No. 698,980 I zfclaims. (c1. -3'3-,1.29)
This invention relates to a machine or device which may be either operated by hand or by po`wer for the rewinding `and measuring of fabrics which are in the form of bolts of cloth or the like, and the invention relates more particularly to a device for rewinding, for sale, small'quantities l from` a stock bolt `of cloth.l
One of the objects of the invention, isto pro-A vide a devicefor rewinding` and measuring the length `of teXtilefabrica-and infn/nich a ,measuring.' roller is employed, and means ,for retaining thefabric in rolling contact therewithfto insure an even and accurate measurement without any'slipping or creeping of the fabric with respect tothe measuring roller. 1
, Another object of the invention is to provide a device provided `with, means for rewinding the fabric in the same manner and shape as that of the originalstock bolt. I j 1 v 1 o A further object of` the invention beingA to provide means whereby fabric of dierent widthslmay be rewound and measured, and the entire length of the piece measured. I ,n ,o -4
Another object being to provide means wherebythe corefboard 'thatthe bolt of fabric cornes wound upon from the factory may be removed and replaced with one of the mandrels of the machine for the purpose of rewinding, or the fabric may be rewound upon the usual core-board if so desired.
With these and other objects in view, myinvention consists in certain novel construction and combination of parts as will hereinafter be fully described andclaimed, and further illustrated in the accompanying drawing which forms a part hereof and in which like figures of reference refer to corresponding parts in all of the views, and it is understood that slight changes may be made without departing from the spirit Vof the invention.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of the device showing a bolt of cloth in position to be rewound and measured. i
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the same.
Figure 3 is a top planview of one of the mandrels, showing means for holding core boards` of varying lengths thereon to wind the cloth upon.
Figure 4 shows an edge View of the same, partly in section to illustrate the method of holding the core boards.
here shown, but the several parts or supportsv may be combined with and made integral with a suitable base.
A pair of supportingbrackets I I are secured to the base I! by the screws I3, and the upper ends of these supports II are formed Vwith the U- 5 shaped kbearings I2 which are alined with each other and Ainwlrn'ch iS Supported ina freely rotat- -Mablel manner; the trunnions Siv which are formed fon each end .of the mandrel I4, and which are only slightly larger in diameterthan the thickness ofthe mandrel. j I
Said mandrel I4 is formed of suitable material such as metalfand is rectangular in cross section and provided with a central slot I5 and a series of openings I6 for thepurpose of reducing "15 its Weight; while one end adjacent the trunnion `9 is formed with a flange against which the boltof cloth may be abutted to act as a guide` Near `the other end of the base plate I0, is mounted a similar pair of supports Il by the screws I3, and th ey are also formed with U-shaped bearings I8"at their upper ends, within which are rotatably mounted` thetrunnions I9 of the mandrel 20; one of said trunnions IS being exitendedand having secured thereon a hand crank 2'i,'b`y whichthe mandrel "is rotated, but it is understood that for this crank, a pulley or other power operating means may be substituted.
The mandrel 20 is similar in design to the mandrel I4 as shown in Figures l and 2, but the spe- 30 cial mandrel as shown in Figures 3 and 4, may be substituted.
The tension and measuring device, comprises a pair of bearing blocks 22 which are formed with the alined bearings 23, and secured to the base plate I0 by the screws I3, and within said bearings 23 is mounted in a freely rotatable manner a shaft 24 upon which is mounted a measuring roller 25 of some suitable material having a mat surface to prevent the slipping of the cloth; this measuring roller 25 having a periphery equal to a predetermined measurement such as one foot, so that each revolution will measure one foot of the cloth; the end of the shaft 24 being attached to a standard counter 26 mounted on one of the 45 bearing' blocks 22; this counter registering the feet and inches or parts of a yard or foot as the case may be.
For exerting the proper tension upon the cloth as it is being Wound and to keep it in contact with the measuring roller 25, there is provided the two arms 21 which are mounted on the ends of a rod 28 which is journaled in the bearing blocks 22, and the outer ends of these arms 21 have secured therein a shaft 29 upon which is 55 mounted a roller 30 which is in contact with the cloth; the swing of these arms 27 being limited by the stop pins 3|.
By referring to Figure 2, it will be seen that the stock bolt of cloth 32 having had its core removed and replaced by the mandrel I4 freely turning in the bearings i2, the cloth is threaded around an idler roller 33 mounted in bearings 34 in the standards il; then to and around the measuring roller 25, around the roller 3B and from there to the mandrel 26 upon which it is wound by the rotation of the same as actuated by the hand lever.
For rewinding the cloth upon cores in place ofv upon the mandrel alone, the mandrel 35 as shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5, is provided, and this is similar to the regular mandrel with the excepfion that it is provided with two removable and adjustable end clamps for holding a core board upon one side thereon; one of said clamps 42 being placed adjacent the flange 31 and the other being mounted in a sliding manner in the slot i5, and comprising a base 33 having a tongue 39 eX- tending through said slot I5 and secured by a plateY fili in contact with the lower face of the mandrel 35; while mounted upon said base 38 by the ears it and rod t i, is a linger clip B2 which may be rocked on the base 38 against the spring d3 which holds the same in gripping relation with the core board 44.
v To remove the bolt of cloth after the same has been rewound upon the core board 34; the outer clamp is removed from the mandrel 35, the core board ifi is released from the other clip or clamp, and the core board i4 with the cloth wound thereon is slid o'r of the mandrel 35.
The outer clamp 38 is so constructed that it may be removed from the mandrel to allow the 'core-board M and cloth to be slid off of the mandrel; this removal of the clamp 38 being eiected by the removal of the bottom plate 40 or by any suitable means.
Y It is to be noted that due to the fact that the cloth is not wound tightly on either the mandrel or the Ycombined mandrel and core board and owing to the natural stretch of the material it is easy to slip the bolt of cloth over the trunnion I9 and still have it tight enough to hold on the coreboard and any looseness thereon in no way effecting the same.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
l. In a device for measuring and rewinding fabric, the combination with a base having two pairs of mandrel supporting brackets mounted thereon in spaced relation with each other and each pair formed with aligned bearings, a pair of bearing blocks mounted on said base between said pairs of brackets and formed with aligned bearings, a measuring contact roller freely rotatably mounted in said blocks, a shaft mounted in said blocks in parallel relation with the contact roller, a .pair of arms secured to the ends of said shaft, a tension roller carried by said arms, stops formed on said blocks for limiting the swing of said arms, a guide roller mounted in one pair of brackets adjacent the lower ends thereof, and a pair of fabric receiving mandrels demountably carried by said brackets and being rectangular in cross section.
2. In a machine for measuring and rewinding fabric, the combination with a base having two pairs of supporting brackets mounted thereon and formed with bearings, of a pair of bearing blocks mounted on said base between said pairs of brackets and formed with aligned bearings therein, a measuring roller mounted in said bearings and means for registering the revolutions thereof, a pair of swinging arms pivoted to said bearing blocks, a tension rollerro-tatably mounted in said arms and parallel with the measuring roller, means attached to said blocks for limiting the swing of said arms, a guide roller mounted in one pair of brackets, demountable mandrels mounted in the bearing in said brackets, rectangular in cross section, adjustable clamps mounted thereon for holding a core-board thereon.
