We JOHN BUTTERWORTH, and WILLIAM DICKINSON, both of Globe Iron Works,
Burnley, in the County of Lancaster, Machine Makers, do hereby declare the nature
of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to improved construction and combination of apparatus
for operating the "hammer" which marks the cuts or lengths of yarn sized and
wound onto the weavers or sized yarn beam.
Apparatus for purpose aforesaid constructed according to this our invention
comprises a bracket bolted to the side frames of the machine and having at the
extremity of its arm a hollow cylinder within which is a spiral spring-A spindle
is passed through the spring and cylinder and on the upper end of the spindle is a
plate or T head.
On one end of the plate rests a vertical spindle connected by link joint, with
a horizontal rod or shaft (supported by bracket) and on other end of the said
shaft is the color "hammer "The opposite end of the T plate is acted upon by an
eccentric as ordinary, the plate, spindle, and spiral spring, being forced down at
each revolution of the eccentric, the vertical spindle descends and the link and
shaft raise the hammer when so soon as the throw of. the eccentric clears the
T plate, the spiral spring expands and forces up the T plate and spindles, the
vertical one and its shaft impart a sudden action to the hammer which strikes and
marks the yarn.

page_text: We, JOHN BUTTERWORTH and WILLIAM DICKINSON, both of Globe Iron Works
Burnley, in the County of Lancaster Machine Makers do hereby declare the nature
of our invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MARKING APPARATUS OF YARN BIZING
MACHINES" and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement -
This invention relates to improved construction and combination of apparatus
for operating the "hammer" which marks the cuts or lengths of yarn sized and
wound onto the weavers or sized yarn beam.
Apparatus for purpose aforesaid constructed according to this our invention
comprises a bracket bolted to the side frames of the machine, and having at the 1
extremity of its arm a hollow cylinder within which is a spiral spring. A spindle
is passed through the spring and cylinder and on the upper end of the spindle is a
plate or T head.
On one end of the plate rests a vertical spindle connected by link joints with a
rod or shaft (supported by bracket) and on other end of the said shaft is the
colour "hammer." The opposite end of the T plate is acted upon by an eccentric
as ordinary, the plate, spindle, and spiral spring being forced down, at each
revolution of the eccentric the vertical spindle descends and the link and shaft
raise the "hammer" when (so soon as the throw of the eccentric clears the
T plate) the spiral spring expands and forces up the T plate and spindles the
vertical one and its shaft impart a sudden action to the "hammer" which strikes
and marks the yarn.
Such being the nature and object of this our said Invention, the following is
a complete description of same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings
forming a part of this Specification in which Fig. 1 is a back view in elevation of
our improved apparatus.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of same.
Fig. 3 is a side view of tappet and vertical haft.
Apparatus for purpose aforesaid constructed according to this our invention
comprises a bracket 1 bolted to the side frames 2 of the machine and having at
the extremity of its arm a hollow cylinder 3 within which is a spiral spring 4.
A spindle 5 is passed through the spring 4 and cylinder 3 and on the upper end
of the spindle is a plate or T-head 6.
On one end of the plate rests a vertical spindle 7 connected by link joints 8
with a rod or shaft 9 supported by bracket 10 and on other end of the said shaft
is the colour "hammer" 11.
The opposite end of the T plate is acted upon by an eccentric 12 as ordinary,
the plate 6, spindle 5, and spiral spring 4 being forced down at each revolution of
the eccentric 12, the vertical spindle 7 descends and the link and the "hammer "11
are raised. When so soon as the throw of the eccentric clears the T plate 6,
the spiral spring 4 expands and forces up the T plate and spindles 5, the vertical

which strikes and marks the yarn, the hammer being then raised by counterbalance.
weight 13 ready to repeat the operation on next revolution of the eccentric 12.
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;
The T plate 6, spindle 7 and spiral spring operated by the eccentric 12, in
combination with the spindle 7 and "hammer" 11 operated, and operating in
manner herein described and substantially as illustrated by annexed drawings.
