PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improved Means for Distributing Paste or other like Material in
Paper Tube Making and similar Machines.
We, GEORGE KYNOCH AND COMPANY LIMITED and EDWARD JONES, both of
Lion Works, Witton, in the County of Warwick, Manufacturers, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention consists of improvements relating to machinery for the manu-
facture of paper cylinders or tubes such as described in our Specification
No. 21777 of 1894, and to other machines employed in the production of paper
and other articles involving the use of paste or like substance.
The object of our invention is to obtain a thorough distribution of the paste or
like substance upon the paper or other material without the employment of felt or
other covering for the pasting or distributing roll.
In the application of our invention to a paper tube making machine such as
described in our previous specification hereinbefore referred to, we employ a roller
brush for transferring the paste from a trough to an endless rubber band which is
driven in the manner set forth in the said specification. The strips of paper to be
formed into rolls are carried forward by the paste covered band, being retained in
position upon the same by a pair of endless rubber strips or belts, and caused
to pass between a pair of rolls. The lower roll is of metal or other suitable
material, and has preferably a smooth or plain surface. The upper roll, which
hitherto has been covered with felt or other absorbent material, we form from
metal or other material without any covering, but with a grooved or chequered
surface.
We groove or chequer the roll in one convenient manner by turning circular
grooves around its periphery of a suitable pitch, subsequently planing or cutting
longitudinal grooves along the same; or we sometimes cut a right and a left hand
screw thread around and along the entire length of the roll, starting from each end
of the same.
We thus form a number of interstices or depressions in the roll for
the accumulation or storage of paste, and at the same time provide a hard and
durable rolling surface for pressing the paper upon the paste covered band
and evenly distributing the paste over the entire surface of the paper.
The form of the grooves or chequering upon the periphery of the roll, and the
depth of the depressions beneath the surface, is varied to suit the particular work
upon which the machine is to be employed. We also adapt varying methods
of grooving or chequering the rolling surface other than the methods hereinbefore
described.
We do not limit the application of our invention to machines of any particular
type or form, but adapt the same to any machine or appliance with which an even
distribution of paste or like material is required, making such modifications as may
be necessary to suit varying requirements.
Dated this 26th day of November 1895.

We, GEORGE KYNOCH AND COMPANY, LIMITED, and EDWARD JONES, both
of Lion Works, Witton, in the County of Warwick, Manufacturers, 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 consists of improvements relating to machinery for the manu-
facture of paper cylinders or tubes such as described in our Specification
No. 21777 of 1894, and to other machines employed in the production of paper
and other articles involving the use of paste or like substance.
The object of our invention is to obtain a thorough distribution of the paste or like
substance upon the paper or other material without the employment of felt or
other covering for the pasting or distributing roll.
In the application of our invention to a paper tube making machine such as
described in our previous specification herein before referred to, we employ a roller
brush for transferring the paste from a trough to an endless rubber band which is
driven in the manner set forth in the said specification. The strips of paper to
formed into rolls are carried forward by the paste covered band, being retained in
position upon the same by a pair of endless rubber strips or belts, and caused
to pass between a pair of rolls. The lower roll is of metal or other suitable
material, and has preferably a smooth or plain surface. The upper roll, which
hitherto has been covered with felt or other absorbent material, we form from
metal or other material without any covering, but with a grooved or chequered
surface.
We groove or chequer the roll in one convenient manner by turning circular
grooves around its periphery of a suitable pitch, subsequently planing or cutting
longitudinal grooves along the same; or we sometimes cut a right and left hand
screw thread around and along the entire length of the roll, starting from each end
of the same.
We thus form a number of interstices or depressions in the roll for
the accumulation or storage of paste, and at the same time provide a hard and
durable rolling surface for pressing the paper upon the paste covered band and
evenly distributing the paste over the entire surface of the paper.
In the accompanying sheet of explanatory drawings
Figure 1 represents the roll with a smooth external surface Figure 2 illustrates
its appearance after the cutting of the circular grooves;
Figure 3 represents the complete or finished chequered roll after cutting of the
longitudinal grooves.
The form of the grooves or chequering upon the periphery of the roll, and the
depth of the depressions beneath the surface, is varied to suit the particular work
upon which the machine is to be employed. We also adapt varying methods of
grooving or chequering the rolling surface other than the methods hereinbefore
described.
We do not limit the application of our invention to machines of any particular
type or form, but adapt the same to any machine or appliance with which an even
distribution of paste or like material is required, making such modifications
as may be necessary to suit varying requirements.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim is.-
1. The improved means for distributing paste and other like material in paper
