EARLE STIMSON ALDERMAN, OF MARIETTA, OHIO.
TWINE HOLDER AND LIFTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 774,021, dated November 1, 1904. Application filed. April 16, 1904. Serial No. 203 514. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EARLE SrnvisoN ALDER- MAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Marietta, in the county of WVashington and State of Ohio, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Twine Holders and Lifters, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is an improvement in that class of twine-holders which are provided with of the device, the said sections being taken at right angles to each other. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the elastic buffer for the roller-weight. Fig. 6 is a perspective View of one of the plugs which receive the trunnions of the frame.
The frame of my twine holder and lifter comprises two parts 1 and 2. The upper part 1 is an oblong rectangle, and the ball or cone of twine, string, or cord is held therein by means of devices hereinafter described. The part 2 is pendent from the lower central portion of the frame 1, and consists of two parallel rods whose lower ends are connected by means of a plate 3, one end of the same being extended and provided with a hole 3 for passage of the twine m. The said rods are reduced at their upper ends and pass through holes in the lower portion of the frame 1 and are riveted thereto, so that the parts 1 and 2 form a rigid construction. A Weight 4 is adapted to slide between the two rods 2, which thus serve as guides that are embraced by the flanges of the weight. A roller 4 is journaled between top flanges of weight 4, and said flanges extend up beyond the latter, so that when the weight rises the flanges strike the frame 1, and thus serve as buffers, preventing the roller coming in contact with the frame, so that its rotation is not hindered, as would be otherwise the case. The buffer 6 is provided for the weight 4, the same consisting of an elastic block (see Fig. 5) which rests upon the bottom plate 3, the rods 2 passing through it, so that it is thereby held in place.
The twine 0 passes downward from the ball or cone through an elongated slit 7 in frame 1 between the guide-rods 2, that are riveted to said frame, then around the roller 4 of weight 4, then upward through the same slit 7 in frame 1, next over a roller 9, (see Figs. 1, 3, and 4,) and downward through another opening, 8 and thence through the opening 3 in the bottom plate 3. The ball or cone of twine being held rotatably in the frame part 1, it is apparent that when tension is applied to the lower end of the twine w the ball will be rotated and the twine drawn off, the weight 4 in such case being raised to a greater or less height, as indicated by dotted lines, Fig. 1.
When the twine is released, the roller-weight 4 drops to its former or normal position, (indicated by full lines, Fig. 1,) and thus takes up the slack of the twine, so that it is removed from the counter or table upon which goods are wrapped.
It will be seen that the buffer 6 breaks the fall of the weight 4, so that there is little shock or noise, also that the roller-weight has little friction with the guide-rods 2, and friction is further reduced by the passage of the twine over the roller 9. The twine has also minimum friction with the frame-roller, which runs through the opening 7 in the lower bar. In brief, the construction and arrangement and combination of parts are such that friction is reduced to a minimum.
The roller 9, on which the twine is wound, rotates on a fixed journal 9, supported in ears or flanges 9 lVeoden blocks 10 are inserted in the ends of the twine ball or cone. Their outer ends have sockets 10*, adapted to receive the pintles. 11 and 11, upon which the ball of twine is held rotatably. The pintle 11 is fixed in position; but the other is attached to the front end of the plate-spring 12 to provide for convenient insertion of the twine ball or cone.
The entire device or apparatus will be suspended by the hanger 1. (See Fig. 1.)
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a twine holder and lifter of the class indicated, the combination, with the upper frame having a horizontal lower bar provided with a twine-opening 7, and parallel guide-bars 2
