PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Yarn-beam End Plates for Looms, Warping Frames,
Dressing Machines, and the like.
1, FRIEDRICH KLIMSCH, of the firm F. Klimsch in Hohenelbe (Bohemia),
Austria, Manufacturer of Engines, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to
be as follows:-
The yarn-beams of looms, warping frames and dressing machines have their ends
provided with circular plates or discs to prevent slipping of the yarn threads from
the beam.
Hitherto it has been usual to make these end plates of cast iron consequently they
have been open to the objection of being heavy and occupying a large amount of
space owing to their necessary thickness.
Now this invention has for its object to provide yarn beam end plates or flanges
that shall be very light and strong for which purpose such an end plate is according
to my invention made of sheet metal such as sheet steel with stamped ribs and a
turned in edge or circumferential flange whereby the plate is re-inforced and with
an annular nave to enable the plate to be slidden on the yarn-beam and to be secured
thereon.
In the annexed sheet of drawings,
Fig. 1 is a side elevation, and
Fig. 2 a sectional elevation, at right angles to Fig. 1, of a yarn-beam end plate or
flange constructed according to this invention.
The circular plate or flange A is a disc made of thin sheet steel or other suitable
sheet metal stamped with radially arranged ribs a and having a turned in edge or
circumferential flange a¹ whereby considerable stiffness is imparted to the plate,
notwithstanding its lightness.
In order to enable the plate A to be secured to the yarn-beam the plate is
provided with an annular nave A¹ made of any suitable material such as wrought
iron.

page_text: In the sheet of drawings filed with my Provisional Specification,
Fig. 1 is a side elevation, and
Fig. 2 a sectional elevation at right angles to Fig. 1 of a yarn-beam end plate or
flange, constructed according to this invention.
The circular plate or flange A is a disc made of thin sheet steel or other suitable

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is:
An end plate or flange for the yarn-beam of a loom, warping frame, dressing
machine or the like made of sheet metal such as sheet steel with radial ribs a formed
by stamping, and provided with a turned in edge or circumferential flange a² and with
a tubular nave A¹ whereby it can be slid on and secured to the yarn-beam.
Dated this 17th day of October 1889.
