I WILLIAM JAMES ADELEY of 6 Thorndale Avenue Belfast in the County of
Antrim in Ireland Flax Mill Manager do hereby declare the nature of my said
invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MEANS OF APPLYING DRAG TO THE BOBBINS
PIRNS, OR SPOOLS ON FRAMES FOR SPINNING OR TWISTING FIBROUS MATERIAL AND
IN THE APPARATUS THEREFOR to be as follows:-
I despense with the use of the single band and weight as heretofore commonly
used and in lieu thereof I employ a rack running along the front of each builder
or lifter and joined by a steeple or screw and a ratchet wheel, with finger and
screw is attached at end of frame to builder and rack which moves these racks on
raising or lowering the builder or lifter, these racks are geared into a segment
wheel (one opposite each bobbin) on which there are two small uprights or arms,
a hole is bored through these uprights or arms through which a band or cord
passes, this band or cord passes round each side of the bobbin pirn or spool and
round a pin at the back of builder or lifter and as rack moves it turns each
segment wheel with arms or uprights round which tightens the bands on bobbins,
pirns, or spools.

Pirns, or Spools on Frames for Spinning or Twisting Fibrous
Materials, and in the Apparatus therefor.
I WILLIAM JAMES ADELEY of 6 Thorndale Avenue Belfast in the County of
Antrim in Ireland Flax Mill Manager, do hereby declare the nature of my inven-
tion for IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MEANS OF APPLYING DRAG TO THE BOBBINS, PIRNS,
OR SPOOLS ON FRAMES FOR SPINNING OR TWISTING FIBROUS MATERIALS & IN THE
APPARATUS THEREFOR, and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be
particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement :—
I dispense with the use of the band and weight as heretofore commonly used,
and in lieu thereof I employ a rack G running along the front of each builder A
or lifter and joined to each other by a hook, catch, steeple, or screw and a ratchet
wheel M with screw or worm L motion L and finger, stopper, or stud fixed on
gable or end of frame-or ordinary kicker motion M. N. N-is attached at end
of frame to builder A or lifter and geared to rack K, this motion moves these
racks G. G. on raising or lowering the builders A or lifters. These racks G G are
geared into segment wheels D one opposite each spindle or bobbin C. on each
wheel D there are two small uprights F or arms, or studs, or hooks either with or
without a hole through them, through which or round which a band E or cord
passes, same band E or cord passes round each side of bobbin C, pirn, or spool and
round a pin, stud or pully B at the back of builder or lifter A and as the racks G
move they turn the segment wheel D with uprights F which tightens the bands E. E,
putting on the required drag on bobbins, pirns, or spools.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is,
1. Doing away with drag weight and applying drag to bobbins, pirns, or spools,
by means of gearing and band (of any description) combined.
2. Applying drag to both sides of the bobbin, pirn, or spool.
3. Applying selfacting machinery as described to drag bobbins, pirns, or spools,
which has hitherto been done by hand.
