Improvements in Flanged Bobbins.
1, JOSHUA HENRY WILSON of Cornholme near Todmorden in the County of
Lancaster Bobbin Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to
be as follows:-
―:
My improvements has reference to bobbins in which the flanges has holes oL
recesses to admit of pins or pegs on the spindle for the purpose of driving, these
holes or recesses are liable to wear by the action of the pins or pegs and my inven-
tion is to apply a protector to those holes or recesses made of one or more strips of
sheet metal plain or flanged, bent so as to line the holes or recesses, and fastened into
the flange in any convenient manner thus preventing the wear and tear of the
flange by the action of the pins, pegs or snugs on the spindle.

Improvements in Flanged Bobbins.
I, JOSHUA HENRY WILSOx of Cornholme Todmorden in the County of
Lancaster Bobbin Manufacturer 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:-
My improvements has reference to bobbins in which the flanges have holes or
recesses to admit of the pins or pegs on the spindle for the purpose of driving, these
pegs or pins are liable to wear the holes in the bobbin and also the surface of the
flange before getting into the holes. To remedy this I apply a protector to the
flange of the bobbin made of strips of metal inserted into a groove concentric with
and running into the holes of the flange, which strips may be bent at the end or
ends to line the holes or recesses.
In the accompanying sheet of drawings,
Figure 1 represents a bobbin flange with two strips a. a having each end of both
strips formed to line one half of the peg holes b. b., and inserted edgeways into the
concentric groove c and holes b b.
Figure 2 represents a bobbin flange with two strips a, a, one end of one strip
being bent or formed to line one of the holes b, and one of the ends of the other to
line the other hole b, both are inserted edgeways into the concentric groove c and
holes, as in Figure 1.
Figure 3 represents a bobbin flange with two strips a, a, the strip a* being bent
at each end so as to line the holes b, b, and inserted into the concentric groove and
holes as in Figure 1,-the strip a being inserted into the remaining part of con-
centric groove C.
Figure 4, represent a bobbin flange with two strips inserted into the concentric
groove c, as in the other figures and extending from hole to hole,—the holes b, b,
being lined with seperate pieces.

tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I

Applying protectors made of strips of metal to the flanges of bobbins in the
manner and for the purpose described.
