Complete Specification Left 21st Sept. 1892-Accepted. 22nd Oct., 1892
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Winding Frames for Yarn and Thread.
I, CONRAD HÄMIG of Pfersce near Augsburg, in the Empire of Germany,
Factory Director, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
The object of this invention is a thread guide for winding frames which
constitutes further improvements in the series of devices for cleaning the yarn and
removing the wool dust, which are described in the Specification to Patent No. 15811
A.D. 1889, the brush Ć and wing D being now dispensed with.
Referring to the accompanying drawings,
Fig. 1 is a front view, and
Figs. 2 and 3 are cross sections to Fig. 1 which show the general arrangement
with the known mechanisms B C D E with bearings F G guiding the thread
guide A vertically up and down along the height of the bobbin.
Fig. 2 indicates the highest and Fig. 3 the lowest position, at which the thread
guide commences its return movement.
Fig. 4 is a front view, Fig. 5 a top view and Fig. 6 a rear view of the thread
guide with appurtenant device in natural size.
The thread guide has in front clearing bows a a which, as can be seen from the
top, form a conic guiding of the thread to the slits. At the rear side slides bb are
movably secured, by the adjustability of which the thread can be precisely regulated.
By this arrangement of the parts a ab at the slits, the rest of the fine dust particles
is detained when the thread passes the slits, undergoing everywhere a certain
friction. These particles adhere to the whole front surface of the guide and can
after a short time be removed in the shape of dense flocks, so that no more free
wool dust is produced in the work rooms.
To render the stripping off of the wool dust from the guide automatical, little
brushes ddd (or a single bar with soft bristles) are provided in front; these
brushes are secured by means of slightly elastic steel strips e e to the bar. By
the up and down movement, the dust particles are stripped off by the soft brushes,
so that the latter need only from time to time be combed out which can be easily
and quickly done, as the brushes are adapted to be commodiously bent back as
shewn by in dotted lines Fig. 2.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Winding Frames for Yarn and Thread.
I, CONRAD HÄMIG, of Pfersee, near Augsburg, in the Empire of Germany,
Factory Director, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement :-
The object of this invention is a thread guide for winding frames which constitutes
further improvements in the series of devices for cleaning the yarn and removing
the wool dust which are described in the Specifications to Patent No. 15811 of 1889,
the brush C and wing D being now dispensed with.
Referring to the drawings accompanying the Provisional Specification,
Fig. 1 is a front view, Figs. 2 and 3 are cross sections to Fig. 1 which show the

page_text: general arrangement with the known mechanisms BCDE with bearings F
guiding the thread guide A vertically up and down along the height of the bobbin.
Fig. 2 indicates the highest, and Fig. 3 the lowest, position at which the thread
guide commences its return movement.
Fig. 4 is a front view, Fig. a top view, and Fig. 6 a rear view, of the thread
guide with appurtenant device in natural size.
The thread guide has in front, clearing bows a a which, as can be seen from the
top, form a conic guiding of the thread to the slits. At the rear side, slides bb
are moveably secured by the adjustability of which the thread can be previously
regulated. By this arrangement of the parts a ab at the slits, the rest of the fine
dust particles is detained when the thread passes the slits undergoing everywhere
a certain friction. These particles adhere to the whole front surface of the guide,
and can after a short time be removed in the shape of dense blocks, so that no more
free wool dust is produced in the work rooms.
To render the stripping off of the wool dust from the guide automatic, small
brushes d d d (or a single bar with soft bristles) are provided in front; these
brushes are secured by means of slightly elastic steel strips e e to the bar f. By
the up and down movement the dust particles are stripped off by the soft brushes
so that the latter need only from time to time be combed out which can be easily
and quickly done, as the brushes are adapted to be conveniently bent back as shown
by a in dotted lines Fig. 2.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
In thread guides, the arrangement of wool-dust-catchers a a on the front and on
the adjusting slides at the back, as well as of elastic brushes dd standing in
front, for the automatic sweeping off of the gathered wool dust.
