Title: Improvements in or relating to bobbin feeding mechanisms
IPC: B65H67/06
Filed: 1924-02-07
Abstract: 229,843. Alderman, E. R. Feb. 7, 1924. Endless - chain push-plate conveyers and elevators; pushplates, construction of.-Means for conveying bobbins from an indiscriminately arranged mass comprises a conveyer chain with fingers 18 which are semicircular in cross-section to engage the shanks of the bobbins, and a shoot 8 with side walls inclined transversely towards the base. The fingers are secured to lugs 24, Fig. 5, on certain of the links of the chain, and the adjustment of the chain and the sprocket wheels 16, 17 is such that the lower stretch of the chain is slack, whereby the fingers may tilt to disengage themselves from a bobbin that is prevented from readily advancing in the shoot. The walls of the shoot are inclined more acutely and the V-shaped channel formed thereby is shallower at the upper than at the lower end of the shoot, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. The shanks of bobbins normally engaged by the fingers depend through the lower walls 14 of the shoot, and bobbins that lie transversely are ultimately correctly positioned by reason of their engagement with transverse bars 28, the converging nature of the channel facilitating this operation.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Counting-apparatus and Associated Stop-mechanism for Machinery.
Inventor: BRINK CARL AUGUST
IPC: G01B5/04
Filed: 1918-03-01
Abstract: 124,860. Brink, C. A. March 1, 1918. Counters actuated by revolving mechanism; transfer mechanism; stop-mechanism; transmitting actuation to counters; particular setting- mechanism.-Mechanism for counting the operations of a machine and stopping the machine after any predetermined number of operations comprises a pair of hands actuated differentially, one operated by a disk driven through a clutch from the machine, and the other operated from the disk through a one-tooth ratchet transfer device, the disk and the ratchet-wheel being provided with notches which co-operate with a stop-control lever. The device is described in connexion with the measurement of travelling yarn, the machine being automatically stopped after a predetermined length is reeled off. The yarn passes over a pulley W driving a disk E through a worm gear S, G and a one-way friction clutch f comprising a spring secured at one end to the worm-wheel and lying on the inner edge of a ring F secured to the disk, which is fast on the shaft B. Secured to a bush b loose on the shaft B and in the casing is a ratchet-wheel R also carrying a ring K. Between the ratchet-wheel and the disk is a single-tooth transfer mechanism, the tooth e engaging the tail of a pawl P pivoted on a lever L pivoted at l. The pawl is connected by a spring J with a retaining-pawl I. A supplemental hand may be advanced one tooth for a revolution of the ratchetwheel by a pawl V on the ratchet-wheel engaging a ratchet-wheel T. This wheel has one missing tooth, so that in the position shown in Fig. 3 the pawl V fails to engage the wheel. Pivoted at m is a spring lever M connected with the stop mechanism, which may shift a belt or actuate a clutch. The lever M rides by means of a tongue m<1> on the rings which are notched, and when both notches register, the tongue is pressed into the notches and the stop-lever is actuated. An extension o pivoted to the lever M passes through a bracket U and engages a serrated wheel t. When the supplemental wheel is in the position shown in Fig. 3, the end of the lever engages a deep slot t<3>, and if the two notches in the disks are in register, the stop-gear is actuated. The notch f<3> has one face inclined, so that by rotating the disk E by hand the tongue m is lifted out of the notches. If the same length is to be measured off repeatedly, the hands after the first adjustment may be brought back to position by the following means. On the inside of the casing is a loose spring D<2> with inturned ends, which may be moved in one direction to any position, and forms a stop. On the boss of the hand H' is a similar spring q with out-turned ends. The hand H is provided with a spring button h', which, when pressed and the hand move around in the opposite direction to the arrow, engages the part q and drags with it the hand H' until the stop d<4> arrests the hands in the required position.
