Patent GB-191013826-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or connected with Automatic Shuttle Change Mechanism and Stop Motions for Looms.
Inventor: COSSERAT OSCAR
IPC: D03D45/34
Filed: 1910-06-07
Granted: 1911-05-04
Abstract: 13,826. Cosserat, O. June 7. Shuttle-changing mechanism. - The weft fork or feeler mechanism causes the shuttle box 31, Fig. 10, pivoted on an axle on the lay, to be raised, to enable the shuttle from the other box to pass below it out of the loom, which is simultaneously blocked by a brake, the ejected shuttle striking an abutment 35, Fig. 1, which is carried by spring-controlled rods 36, and operates mechanism for introducing a fresh shuttle. The weft fork or feeler mechanism rocks a shaft 1 provided with a lever 2, for moving the unclutching-lever 3 from its notch to stop the loom, and with a lever 12 for releasing a spring-controlled brake-rod, which then tightens the brake strap. A lever 18, Figs. 1 and 11, on the shaft 1 is freed from a hooked lever 20 pivoted on the loom frame, thus enabling a spring to draw the hook into engagement with a lever 22, 24 pivoted on a bracket on one of the lay-swords, so that, as the lay completes its stroke to the rear, where it is stopped, the lever 22 is turned and-the part 24 engages a collar on and raises a rod 29, Figs. 10 and 11, guided in guides 33, 34 and connected by the rod 30 to the shuttle-box 31. The shuttle passes under the box and strikes the abutment 35, Fig. 1, and, by means of a rod 40 and lever 41, rocks a shaft 42 carrying a hammer 7, which is thereby moved away from a finger 6 on the clutch lever 3, and allows this lever to complete its motion to the end of its notch, whereby the driving-strap is placed on a pulley 44 connected by spur-gearing with a cam-shaft. An outer cam on this shaft rocks a lever 52, Fig. 10, and raises a rod 53, whereby the rods 29, 30 are raised still further until the box 31 is in alinement with the bottom shuttle supported in a channel 59, Figs. 10 and 11, in the magazine and prevented from falling out by a spring 66. The rising shuttle box engages a fend-piece 67 on the magazine, which is carried by a shaft 63, the magazine being thus moved into proper position. A second lever 69 operated by an inner cam is connected by a rod 70 to a lever 61, which actuates an ejector 60. The bottom shuttle is thereby driven into the box 31, its point becoming lodged in the axle hole in the picker. The lever 69 also actuates one arm of a lever connected to an extension of the brakerod, whereby this rod is moved to its normal position, while a roller fixed to one of the gears driven from the pulley 44, Fig. 1, operates a lever connected by lever mechanism to the shaft 11 of the unclutching-lever 3, which is thus moved into position to re-start the loom. A dog on the lever 52, Fig. 11, normally engages in a notch in a plate fixed to the cam-shaft, and thus locks this shaft in position, but, during the preliminary upward movement of the rod 29, the lever 52 is rocked sufficiently to free the plate and the cam-shaft. A cam 83, Fig. 13, may replace the hammer 7.

Inventor: MORLEY HERBERT WILLIAM
IPC: G05D13/00
Filed: 1911-01-30
Granted: 1912-01-30
Abstract: 2352. Morley, H. W. Jan. 30. Centrifugal governors. -The load on a combined centrifugal and inertia governor, such as is described in Specification 2351 / 11, is varied during running by a hand-wheel p acting on a sleeve m feather - keyed to an extension n of the governor spindle b. The sleeve, through a pin- and - slot connexion, turns a plug l relatively to the spindle and varies the effect of a coiled spring k, on a rod g, housed in the spindle. A cross-key h, entering grooves in the inertia ring a and passing through splayed slots in the spindle, transmits the spring's action to the inertia ring. The rod g may be resilient and replace the spring k or the springs used to give the normal resistance to movement of the governor weights.
