FRED BARNETT EDMAND, OF TORONTO, CANADA.
CLOTH-MEASURING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 462,940, dated November 10, 1891.
Application filed January 2, 1891- Sei'ial No. 376,447- (No model.)
To all whom it mag concern:
Be it known that I, FRED BARNETT EDMAND, of the city of Toronto, in the county of York, in the Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented a certain new and Improved Blocking and Measuring Device, of which the following is a specification.
The object of the invention is to design a simple machine for blocking and measuring cloth and similar material in stock-taking; and it consists in the peculiar construction, arrangement, and combinations of parts, hereinafter more particularly described, and then definitely claimed.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved cloth blocker and measurer. Fig. 2 is a view of modified form of clamp.
A is the frame of the machine, provided with suitable standards, as indicated, to support the various parts of the operating mechanism.
B is a spindle screwed into one of the standards of the frame A and having a clamp O pivoted on its end. In the standard opposite to that through which the spindleB is screwed I pivot a clamp D. The board on which the roll of cloth E is wound is held between the two clamps O and D in such a manner that it will revolve with the pivoted clamps as the cloth is unwound from it. By turning the screwed spindle B the roll of cloth may be made either harder or easier to revolve, according to the tension required for the particular kind of cloth being blocked and measured. The cloth E is carried over the roller F and under the roller G, thence onto the cloth-board H, which is supported by and between the two clamps I and J, similar to the clamps C and D. The clamp J is, however, fixed to a spindle journaled in the standard of the frame, and is provided with a crank-handle K, so that the cloth-board H may be revolved for the purpose of winding the cloth E upon it. On one end of the roller G, 1 iii; a cog-pinion L, which meshes with the cog-wheel M, from the face of which cog-wheel a pin N projects. Assuming that the circumference of the roller G measures a quarter of a yard, the cog-wheel M is made such a diameter that it will take four revolutions of the cog-pinion L to move the cog-wheel M a single revolution.
0 is awheel suitablyjournaled and extending over the face of the cog-wheel ill in such a position that every revolution of the cogwheel M will bring the pin N in contact with one of the cogs P, formed on the wheel 0, moving the said wheel the distance of one tooth at each revolution of the cog-wheel M, and as the roller G represents a quarter of a yard four revolutions of the cog-pinion L, fixed to the said roller, will represent one yard for the movement of a single tooth of the wheel 0. The periphery of the wheel 0 has figures 0 marked on it to indicate a single yard for each tooth, and as each movement of the wheel 0 brings a fresh figure opposite to the hole a, made in the cap Q, the number of yards measured may be readily seen.
Fractions of a yard are indicated by the cog-wheel M, which is divided, as shown, to indicate eighths.
To securely hold the wheel 0 in whatever position it may be, two springs c and (Z, attached to the cap Q, are provided which bear against the outer face of the wheel 0. One of these springs cl is shaped so that it will engage with an indent Z) in the wheel 0 when the said wheel is set to zero. This insures that the wheel 0, when set at the commencement of the operation, is left in such aposition that the pin N will properly engage with it, as without some such arrangement the wheel 0 might be left in such a position that the pin N would jam on top of the tooth instead of properly engaging with it.
For convenience when measuring cloth from a number of boards of the same length the clamps D and J are preferably provided with springs R, as shown in Fig. 2, so that the clamp may be forced backward to allow of the introduction or extraction of a fresh board without turning the screw-spindles l3 and the corresponding spindle at the other end of the machine.
From this description it will be seen that I obtain an elfective blocking device and at the same time secure simple means for recordiug the number of yards blocked.
hat I claim as my invention is 1. The combination, with the tension-rollers and folding means of a cloth measuring and blocking machine, of a pinion L, fixed to one of the tension-rollers and geared to a wheel M, said wheel M geared with a toothed wheel 0 and having a pin N, engaging with the teeth of said wheel 0, and the latter havingindicatin g-figu res on its rim, substantially as described.
2. Two pivoted clamps supported opposite to each other and designed to support a roll of cloth or other similar material on one' side of a pair of tension-rol1ers, one of the said clamps being connected to a longitudinallyadjustable spindle, two clamps located opposite to each other and on the opposite side of the tension-rollers and designed to support a board on which the cloth may be wound, one clamp being pivoted on the end of the longitudinally-adjustable spindle and the other clamp fixed to a spindle suitably journaled and connected to a crank-handle, in combination with a cog-pinion fixed to one of the tension-rollers and geared to a wheel M, re- 20
