Definitions

  • a device for limiting the diameter of bobbins being wound comprising a feeler for engaging the bobbin, the feeler being carried by an adjustable hollow arm in which is provided an electrical contact for actuation by the feeler for operating a circuit with the growth of the bobbin to the desired extent, the feeler being displaceable by the bobbin substantially tangentially at the region of contact of the bobbin periphery therewith so that a quick making of electrical contact follows the initial driving contact of the bobbin periphery with the feeler to stop winding.
  • the feeler may be a lever with an arcuate surface, circular or eccentric, to engage the surface of the bobbin for operation thereby to actuate the switch.
  • the invention relates to a device for limiting the diameter of increasing bobbins.
  • rollers are used which come into contact with the surface of the bobbin when a predetermined bobbin-diameter is attained.
  • an acoustic signal is tripped in a purely mechanical way by the roller which is placed in rotation on contact with the surface of the bobbin, or the operating personnel will be notified of the ending of the winding process by the appearance of a coloured marking on the circumference of the roller when this is set in rotation.
  • the purpose of the invention is to provide a device for limiting the diameter of bobbins which avoids these disadvantages and, moreover, works automatically.
  • a feeler for example a roller
  • an adjustable hollow arm in which electrical contact is provided for actuation by the feeler.
  • the electrical contact operates a circuit which effects the stopping of the windingor twisting-position.
  • the winding-and/or twisting-position can be stopped directly on attaining the predetermined diameter of the bobbin.
  • the device is independent of the vigilance of the operating personnel and is fully functional even when the desired bobbindiameter is attained at a number of winding-positions simultaneously. Careful handling of the bobbin-windings is ensured.
  • FIGURE 1 is a persceptive representation of the arrangement in the operating position and FIGURE 2 is a section through the hollow arm with the hinged feeler-lever.
  • the bobbin 1 is mounted in bobbin-frame 2.
  • a hollow arm 3 is provided with a feeler 4.
  • the surface 5 of the feeler has the form of an arc. This surface 5 of the feeler contacts with the surface of the bobbin 1 when the bobbin has grown to the desired amount.
  • the hollow arm 3 is fixed adjustably at 6 and clamped by means of a knurled nut 8 in the set position.
  • the feeler 4 is mounted pivotably at 9 in the hollow arm 3 and can operate by means of a projection 10 on the button 11 of the microswitch 12 which is accommodated in the hollow interior of the arm 3.
  • the protrusion 15 provides that the feeler 4 takes up in each case a well-defined starting position which is shown in dashed line in FIGURE 2.
  • feeler-surface 5 it may be desirable to form the feeler-surface 5 as a ball or ridge, in order in this way to arrive at an approximate point-contact between the bobbin surface and the feeler-surface 5.
  • the feeler surface 5 may be given an eccentric shape. In this way, the switching-time can be varied asdesired.
  • a device for limiting the diameter of a bobbin being wound comprising: an adjustable arm supporting a feeler lever so that the lever can be contacted by the periphery of the bobbin when the bobbin is wound to a predetermined diameter, an electrical switch carried by said adjustable arm, said electrical switch having a contact adapted to be actuated by said lever for operating a circuit for stopping winding of the bobbin, said lever being freely pivotally carried on said adjustable arm on an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the bobbin, said lever having means for setting its initial position, said lever having actuating means for actuating said electrical switch contact when said lever is pivoted about its axis, and said lever having a curved surface for co-operating with the peripheral surface of the growing bobbin with the point of tangential contact between said lever and the peripheral surface of the bobbin and the axes of said lever and bobbin lying substantially in one plane and with the tangential contact between the peripheral surface of the growing bobbin and the curved surface causing pivotal
  • a device in which the said feeler surface is curved eccentrically with respect to the fulcrum of the lever.
