PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Bobbins for Ring and other Frames.
I, SAMUEL WOODCOCK, of 10 Orme Street, Oldham, in the County of
Lancaster, Bobbin Maker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in bobbins for ring and other frames used
for the reception of yarn or rovings respectively and has for its object to
strengthen the end or ends thereof as the case may be and thus render the same
less liable to break when trod upon or otherwise roughly handled.
To this end my improvements consist in forming the bobbin, when used for the
reception of yarn, near its lower end and for rovings (if necessary) at both ends,
internally with a groove of suitable depth and width, into which I place a split
metal spring ring. The said spring ring is placed in position by first compressing
and afterwards permitting it to expand in the said groove, so as to form a support
for the end or ends of the bobbin and thus resist any pressure which may be unduly
exerted thereon externally.
Dated this 1st day of January 1892.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Bobbins for Ring and other Frames.
I, SAMUEL WOODCOCK, of 10 Orme Street, Oldham, in the County of
Lancaster, Bobbin Maker, 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 :-
This invention relates to improvements in bobbins for ring and other frames used
for the reception of yarn or rovings respectively and has for its object to strengthen
the end or ends thereof as the case may be and thus render the same less liable to
break when trod upon or otherwise roughly handled.
And in order that my invention may be more fully understood I have caused to
be appended hereunto one sheet of drawings marked with letters of reference
indicating like parts in the various figures.
Figs. 1 & 3 are sectional elevations of a ring and a roving bobbin respectively.
Figs. 2 & 4 are sectional plans of Figs. 1 & 3 respectively on line A-B furnished
with my improvements.
Fig. 5 is an elevation and Fig. 6 a plan of the strengthen ring detached.
In carrying out my invention the improvements consist in forming the bobbin a,
when used for the reception of yarn, see Figs. 1 & 3, near its lower end and for
rovings, see Figs. 3 & 4, (if necessary) at both ends, internally with a groove bof
suitable depth and width, into which I place a split metal spring ring c. The
spring ring c is placed in position by first compressing and afterwards permitting it to
expand in the groove b, so as to form a support for the end or ends of the bobbin a
and thus resist any pressure which may be unduly exerted thereon externally.
may remark that I do not confine myself to the section of the spring ring c
shown in the drawing as the same may be round or of other suitable section as may
be found most suitable.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is-
In bobbins, forming one or both ends internally with a groove, adapted for the
reception of a spring ring, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
Dated this 30th September 1892.
