I WILLIAM NOTON of Priory House in Oldham in the County of Lancaster:
Cotton Spinner do hereby declare the nature of my invention for IMPROVEMENTS
IN THE REELING OR WINDING OF YARN OR THREAD to be as follows :—
My invention relates to the winding of yarn or thread from cops bobbins or
spools and consists in an apparatus in which the cops bobbins or spools are encircled
or partly surrounded by the bristles of a brush or light wire springs or other flexible.
material placed in an inclined position around and against the nose of the cop,'
bobbin, or spool in such a manner that the bristles, or light wire springs, or other
flexible material are in a line with or slightly diagonally placed with the length of
the cop, the converging bristles light wire springs or other flexible material give ad
regular and elastic tension to the yarn when it is wound.

Improvements in the Reeling or Winding of Yarn or Thread.
WILLIAM NOTON Priory House Union St Oldham in the County of Lancaster
Cotton Spinner, I do hereby declare the nature of my invention for IMPROVEMENTS
IN REELING OR WINDING YARNS OR THREAD, and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
My invention relates to the winding of yarn or thread from cops, bobbins or
spools and consists in an apparatus in which the cops bobbins or spools are encircled
or partly surrounded by the bristles of a brush or light wire springs or other flexible
Dhina-All

page_text: material placed in an inclined position around and against the nose of the cop,
bobbin or spool in such a manner that the bristles or light wire springs or other
Bexible material are in a line with or slightly diagonally placed with the length of
the cop, the converging bristles, light wire springs or other flexible material give a
regular and elastic tension to the yarn when it is wound.
My invention will be understood by reference to the annexed drawings and
explanation thereof.
Fig. 1 is a, front elevation of the brush as adapted to the creel of a reel or winding
frame. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same Fig. 3 & 4 are front and side
elevations of the same arrangement but of leather cloth or other flexible material
instead of bristles. Fig. 6 & 7 are vertical sections of the same arrangements and
Fig. 5 & 8 are varied ways in which the inclined brush may be applied.
A in Fig. 1, 2, 3, & 4 represents the bobbin standing on a short peg D. The
bobbin can also be placed in a slight recess in the bar instead of pegs.
C is a
bracket in which is inserted the brush converging on the nose of the cop or on
which is fastened cloth or leather or other flexible material which being cut in a
star form assumes the same position as the brush when the bobbin is put through
it as shewn in Fig. 3. 4 & 7. F shews the slot to allow the thread to be entered
and E the guide to the reel or winding frame bobbin. G is a bar on 'which the
bracket C is fastened. The bracket C need not necessarily be made separately but
it is found to be better for arranging to any guage.
.
In working the cop bobbin or spool in Fig. 1. 2. 3. 4 6 & 7. is placed in position
by being entered underneath the bracket C and returned on the short peg D
In Fig. 5 it can be entered in front. Fig. 1 & 2 is the best arrangement as the
pressure is more uniform. By these arrangements the ballooning of the yarn or
thread is completely stopped, and a very regular and elastic tension is given to the
yarn
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
:..
.
1st The combination with the creels of reels or winding frames of brushes
wire springs or any flexible material placed in an inclined position around and
against the nose of the cop bobbin or spool in such a manner that the brushes wire
springs or other flexible material are in a line with or slightly diagonally placed
with the length of the cop.
2nd The combination and arrangements of brushes wire springs or other flexible
materials pressing against the nose of the cop bobbin or spool substantially and for
the purpose herein before described and illustrated by the drawings.
Dated this 1st day of December 1885.
