- JAMES P. YOUNG, OF COIN, IOWA.
LACE OR EMBROIDERY MEASURING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 653,603, dated July 10, 1900.
Application 616a April 10, 1899.
Serial No. 712,466. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern Be it known that I, JAMES P. YOUNG, a citizen of the United States, residing at Coin, in
the county of Page and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Lace or Embroidcry, or other material to be wound thereon from a skein or bunch and simultaneously measured.
The device includes in its construction a suitable frame, a shaft rotatively supported by the framing, a clamping member located in proximity to the shaft and having an eye at one end surrounding the said shaft, a ring on the shaft adapted to embrace the'free end of i the clamping member at a point remote from said eye, whereby a cardboard or similar device can be secured between the shaft and the clamping member, and means for rotating the shaft, and said shaft is held against endwise movement by a latch on the framing adapted to engage the same. When the latch is operated to release the shaft, it may be removed for the purpose of taking off the cardboard. In the present' case I employ two of these shafts, and one of them is in the nature of a primary shaft and the other of a secondary shaft, and they are'adapted, respectively, to carry cardboards or spools, and the material can be wound from one cardboard to the other, and one of the shafts is provided with a crank by which it and the corresponding shaft through the agency of the intermediate material can be rotated to reel off said material, and the amount of the latter can be indicated by a suitable register operating in connection with a roller in contact with which the material passes When-wound off one of the cardboards to the other.
With these ends in view the invention consists in the novel combination of elements and in the construction and arrangementof parts, which will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
To enable others to understand the inven-' tion, I have illustrated the preferred embodiment thereof in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and in which- Figure l is a front elevation of a winding machine constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is an end elevation of the machine as seen' from the. right in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional rear elevation of the lower shaft and of a portion of the framing sustaining the same and of the latch for holding the shaft against endwise movement. Fig. 4 1s a perspective view of the upper shaft, its clamping device, and crank detached from the machine.
Signilar characters denote like and corresponding parts in each of the several figures of the drawings.
The framework is denoted by 2, and it is adapted to sustain the shafts 3 and 4, the shaft 3 constituting the power-shaft and be ing located above and in front of the shaft 4,
and both of them are supported for rotation between the side members of the framing, and the upper one is equipped with a handcrank 5, constitutinga convenient means for turning the same. In connection with the two shafts the clamping rods or bobbinclamps 6 are employed, and the pieces of cardboard forming the bobbins 7 are secured between these rods and the shafts, and lace or material is taken from the lower piece of cardboard or spool and is wound upon the upper one. The rods'ti have eyes 8 at one end encircling the shafts, and the opposite ends of the rods are held in firm engagement with the pieces of cardboard by means of the slid-- ing rings 9, carried by the respective shafts and adapted to embrace the free ends of the rod and-to hold the same firmly in gripping engagement with the two cardboards or webs 7, whereby material can be reeled ofi one of the latter and wound upon the other when the hand-crank 5 is manipulated. \Vhen the cardboards are to be removed, this object can be accomplished by slipping the clip-rings 9 along the shafts, thereby releasing the clamping-rods, after which the latches or keepers which normally hold the said shafts against endwise movement are operated to free the same, so that the shafts can he slid out of their bearings, during which operation the cardboard, with its supplyof material, can be held in the hand. 4 When the parts are in clamped engagement with the shaft, the eye at one end of the rod and the ring at the other end bind with suflicient tightness and friction against the shaft to cause the clamp-rod, together with the bobbin, to rotate with the shaft. In order to prevent any possibility of the parts slipping, however, the shaft is provided with a squared portion 3, and the eye 8 of the rod 6 is correspondingly shaped to conform to said squared portion of the shaft.
The two shafts are normally held against movement longitudinally by means of latches,
as 10, consisting, preferably, of flat plates fitted for sliding movement against'the righthand side of the framework and having longitudinal slots 12 to receive the holding-screws 13, which are spaced apart and which serve to hold the twolatches in place and to also guide the same in their reciprocative movements. The latches are provided at their upper ends with transverse finger-pieces 14,
by which they can be readily raised and low-.
ered, and they are adapted to engage the shoulders 15 on the shafts when the latter are in their operative positions, thereby to limit endwise movement of the same. When the lower ends of the latches are raised clear of the shoulders or projections 15, the shafts can'of course be removed for the purpose of taking off or applying the cardboards or webs 7.
In connection with the two shafts is provided registering mechanism including in its organization the superposed rollers 16, supported at the forward lower side of the machine and covered with cloth or other suitable material and the shafts of which are supported by bearing-blocks 17,'located in mortises 18 in the framing, and the shafts pass through longitudinal slots inthe plates 19, secured inside'the framework. The up- .per roller is held in proper relation with its companion by means of coiled springs 20, disposed in the mortises and held therein by the plates, and the springs are adapted to bear against the upper walls of the mortises and also against the upper bearing-blocks 17.
The material to be wound upon the up er cardboard 7 from the lower one is denoted by 21, and it of course may be of any kind, and
- it passes partially around the lower or measuring roller 16 and is held firmly thereagainst by the spring-actuated upper roller, and as the material moves along it serves to rotate the lower roller, the periphery of which is equal to a certain standard of measurementsay one-eighth of a yard-so that upon each complete rotation of said lower. roll this amount of material will be unwound, and this fact may be indicated upon a register, as 22, which may be of any suitable construction and which can be secured to the framework and can be connected by a gearing, as
23, to said lower or measuring roller.
In Fig. 2 the lower latch 10 is represented as supported for diagonal movement, and it is bifurcated at its lower end, as at 24, to straddle the lower shaft 4 and to engage the outside of the shoulder or' projection 15 to hold the shaft against withdrawal from its bearings.
The machine hereinbefore described is not only simple in construction, but it can bemanufactured at a low cost and can be easily operated, and it serves to support two devices, from one of which lace, thread, or any other suitable material can be reeled off and wound on the other device, and accurate registration can be made of the amount unwound from. the primary device.
Changes in the form, proportion, size, and the minor details of construction within the scope of the appended claims may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing anyof the advantages of this invention.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is- 1. In a measu ring-machine the combination with the machine-frame, of a-winding-shaft journaled therein, a clamp on said shaft consisting of a rod having a laterally-projecting eye at one end encircling the shaft, and a relatively-slidable inelastic clam p-ring encircling the shaft and adapted to embrace the free end of the clamping-rod and fasten a bobbin to the shaft so as to rotate therewith, sub
scribed.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed mysignature in the presence of two witnesses.
