SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent.No.'473,103, dated April 19, I892.
- I application filed April 28, 1891- Serial No. 390,736. (Nomodeh) To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatI, CHARLES HENRY YOUNG, of Kansas City,in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented certain new 5 and useful Improvements in Oloth-Measur ing-Machines, of which the following is afull. clear, and exact description, reference being had,to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to an improved device I for measuring cloth or other fabrics, the same beingintended more especial] 'forinventorying; and it consists in features of novelty hereinafter described, and pointed out in the S claims.
' Figure I is a plan view of my improved device. Fig. II is a vertical section taken on line II II, Fig, I, showingthe manner of measuring carpet. Fig. III is an enlarged detail sup- IV is a perspective porting a clamp. Fig.

5 V is a sectional View taken on line V V, Fig.
I, showing the manner of measuring cloth or other fabric. Fig. VI is a plan view of my adjustable clamp and support for the' bolt of fabric. Fig. VII is .a plan View of my indi- 30 cator and friction-roller for operating the same, a portion of the same being broken away to show the operation of said indicator. Fig. VIII is an enlarged detail perspective showing my improved cradle for supporting 35 a large roll of fabric, such ascarpets, &c. Fig. TX is an enlarged detail perspective showing the bifurcated shaft and sleeve for placing on the same for the support of goods I as they are being wound or mnwound;
Referring to the drawings, 1 represents the frame for supporting the various parts of my improved device.
2 represents-the board or roller on which the fabric may be wound as it is passed 45 through the machine in order to be measured, said board being supported by clamps 3 4, the clamp 4; being journaled ina movable frame 5, as shown at (5, with an extension 7, on which acrank 8 may be placed in order to rotate '5 said clamp in winding the goodson the board 2.
thereto, so that they will work in their bear-J whereby by rotating said screw 15 the clamp 75- clamps connected therewith movable laterally The frame 5 is pivoted to the main frame 1 at its upper and lower ends, as shown at 8 9, so that the same is movable laterally, 'asr shown in Fig. VI, said frame 5 being madeiii .1 .1 two parts connected by a cross-bar 10, said bar 10 being connected with posts 11, which are movably connected with the lower ends of the frame 5, as shown at 12, said posts be ing let into said frame and loosely secured ings in the frame 5 as theframes are vibrated or moved laterally. i On the bar 10 is a movable bracket 13, proi vided with a set-screw 14, by which the same may be set at any desired point on said bar, 65 the bracket 13- supporting a screw. 15 by- 1- means of a clamp-16 on its upperend, said clamp having a set-screw 17, by which itmay. be either tightened or loosened in order that y w the screw 15 may work readily therein. The screw 15 is provided at its outer end with a '3. wheel 18 for operating thesame. On the inner end of the screw the clamp 3 is secured,
3 may be made to approach the clamp 4or to rece'de therefrom in securing the board therein onwhichto-wind the fabric, or. said clamp 1,-
may be moved laterally on the bar 10 by ,adjusting the bracket 13 thereon.
The object of having the frame 5 and the is in order that when the goods are being wound upon the board if thesame should 1 run toward either end, as goods frequently; I do' when not being Woundstraight or from 85' other causes, the frame and clamps may be moved to correspond with'the goods, and thus enable the operator to wind them straight, said device being movable laterally by the 2 handle 19. Thus as the operator is turning the crank 8 and winding up the goods he can at the same time Inovethe frame 5,- and clamps supported thereby may desire.
The bolt or roll of goods wound on the usual board or roller 20 is operated by a bifurcated shaft 21, having its ends '22 disconnected, whereby the same may be inserted on each in either direction, as he side of the board, as shown at 23, between the board and the fabric 2t wound thereon, the 100 v ends 22 of said shaftbeing placed in the frame l, as shown at 25, the opposite end of the shaft having a reduced portion 26, which rests in a socket 27 in the frame 1, and having a collar 28, which prevents lateral movement of the same, and a square extension 29, on which, if desired, the cr nk 8 may be placed in order to wind the abric in the opposite direction. I On the shaft 21 I place clamps 3O 31, similar in construction to the clamps 34 on the opposite side of the machine, between which the board is secured, said clamp 31 being movable on'the shaft 21 in. order to accommodate itself to the length of the bale or board on which thcfabricis wound, said clamp being adjustably secured to the bar 21 by means of a set-screw 32. The fabric after he ing connected with the shaft 21 may be passed down under the tension-roller 33, which is pivoted to a rod 34 and provided with a sctscrew 35, whereby said tension-roller may, if desired, be set atany point on the rod to which it is pivoted, (see-Fig. V,) the fabric then passing ovcra roller 36, journaled to the frame, on which rests a friction-roller'37, said frictionroller, however, pressing against the fabric as it passes through the machine, the-fabric then passing beneath an additional tensioirroller pivoted to a rod'38- and having a set screw 3!), by which it may be-sct"at any desired point on its support, thefabric as it passes through the machine bearing against the rods 34 38, thus forming an additional friction in order to keep the goods taut as they pass through the device, the fabric after it passes through the various rollers being wound on the board 2 bythc crank 8.
As the fabric is being passed through the machine the number of yards so passing is recorded upon the indicator 40, the hand 41 on said indicator being secured to a wormgear 42, (see Fig. V111,) said worm-gcar meshingwith a screw-threaded shaft 43, to which tho friction-roller 37 is connected, said roller being journalcd to a frame 44, ,which is pivoted to a rod 45, said roller by gravity pressing the fabric against the roller 36 as it passes through the machine, the fabric thus rotating the roller 37 and operating the indicator I0 by means described, thus indicating the number of yards that have passed under said roller.
46 represents a bracket supporting a spool 47, on which is wound a tape 48, the bracket 46 being suitably secured to the frame 1, said tape passing around a pin 49 on the frame 44 invoicing or at other times to place a bolt of and then passing down beneath the roller 37,
through with the fabric and is wound upon the board with the fabric, said tape serving to indicate the number of yards passed through the machine, thus forming a check on the indicator and also indicating the number of yards in the bale of fabric afterthe same has been taken from the machine, the tape being torn off at the end of the fabric and remaining with the same.
For supporting carpet or other heavy fabric wound in rolls I provide a cradle composed'of a frame 50, having pins 51 at its upper end, to which the top portion of my improved device may be secured (see Fig. II) when it s desired to measure heavy rolls of fabric. The frame 50 is connected at its bottom by transverse rods 52. (See Fig. VIII.) Connected with said rods 52 are movable frames 58, wh4ch may be moved laterally to accommodateth selves to the length of the roll of carpet or other fabric, in order to prevent endwlse mo ement of the same. Said. frames may be secured at any desired point on saidjrods by means of setrscrews 53-} and moved backand forth, as shown at Fig. VIII.
Pivotcd to rods 52 are movable arms 54,-
59 represents asleeve, which, if desired, may be placed on the shaft 21 and secured thereto by a screw 60, on which the goods may be wound instead of winding it directly on the shaft. In the case where goods are wound upon rollers instead of boards I provide a shaft 61, hearing points 62, which may be inmaterial on the shaft 21 and wind itonto a board 2, supported by the clamps 3 4, passing the fabric through thc'machine and measurbig the same. I
If it is not desired to have the fabric remain on the board 2, I can very readily place the crank 8 on the extensions 9 of the shaft .21 and rcwindthe fabric, passing it back onto the original board. :II) will thus be seen that'I can readily pass the cloth back and forth through the machine without removing it from the machine or changing any of the parts except the crank, which, in case I desire to provide an additional crank, would need no change Whatever, and by my improved method of su1')po1tin, the board on which the fabric is wound I can readily move the same laterally in order to wind the goods straight, which cannot at all times be done were the board 2 to be supported in 'a' fixed support. I am by this device also enabled to wind and unwind double-width goods, keeping them in perfect form.
I claim as my invention 1. In a cloth-measuring machine, the combination of asuitable means for supporting a bolt of cloth or other fabric, a friction-roller with which said fabric comes in contact, an indicator in connection with said frictionroller, clamps 3 4 for supporting a board or roll on which the fabric may be wound, said clamp 3 being secured to a screw 15, said screw 15 being supported upon an adjustable bracket 13, provided with a clamp 16 at its upper end, and a handle 19 for moving the clamps and supporting device in a lateral direction, substantially as set forth, and for the purpose described. I
