PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in or relating to Warpers' Beams, Weavers' Beams,
and the like.
I, JOHNSON MILLS, of Chapel Street, Salford, in the County of Lancaster,
Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to the construction of the metallic ends of warpers'
beams, weavers' beams, and the like the object of this invention is to obtain a light
metallic end of strong construction that may be applied either with a boss formed
thereon, or in combination with the ordinary cast metal boss as hereinafter described,
reference being made to the accompanying sheet of drawings.
In this invention I produce in either stamped steel or iron, two plates or discs
as a and b, one of said plates being plain, and the other with corrugations, which
may vary in shape and size, formed thereon in a circular direction. I place the
plates thus produced one on the other with the centre of one of said plates over
the centre of the other: I then form the hole c and the flange d by pressure with
a suitably formed tool, the flange d being produced from the metal that is
contained in the central portions of said plates. Both the inner edge e and the
outer edge are rolled over, the plate a clipping the plate b. A complete metallic
end for a warpers' beam or the like is thus constructed from two plates of stamped
steel or iron which by these means are practically united and form one complete
end as shown on the drawing. The hereinbefore described metallic end may be
fitted on to a roller by means of the flange d that forms a part of said plates as
represented in section in Fig. 1, or if it is preferred to employ a cast metal boss
as Y₁ the flanged is made shorter, and the boss is connected to the plate b by
being bolted or rivetted thereto as shown in section in Fig. 2 on the drawing.

Improvements in or relating to Warpers' Beams, Weavers' Beams,
and the like.
I, JOHNSON MILLS, of Chapel Street, Salford, in the County of Lancaster,
Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention aud in what manner
the same is to he performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement :-
This invention relates to the construction of the metallic ends of warpers'
beams, weavers' beams, and the like; the object of this invention is to obtain a
light metallic end of strong construction with a boss either forming a part thereof
or in combination with the ordinary cast metal boss attached thereto as hereinaft r
described reference being made to the accompanying sheet of drawings.
In the several views shown therein similar letters refer to similar parts.

page_text: Figs. 1 and 2 represent two plates from which a metallic end according to my
invention is constructed. Fig. 3 is a plan and Fig. 4 a transverse section of a
metallic end with the boss formed from the plates shown in Figs. 1 and 2. Fig. 5
is a transverse section of the same metallic end with a cast metal boss attached
thereto.
In this invention I produce in either stamped steel or iron two plates or discs,
one of said plates being plain as Fig. 1, and the other as Fig. 2, with corrugations
which may vary in shape and size formed thereon in a circular direction. place
the plates thus produced one on the other with the centre of one plate over the
centre of the other: I then form the hole and the flange d by pressure with a
suitably formed tool, the flange d being produced from the metal that is contained
in the central portions of said plates: both the inner edge e and the outer edge f
are rolled over, the plate a clipping the plate. A complete metallic end for a
warpers' beam or the like is thus constructed from two plates of stamped steel or
iron which by these means are practically united and form one complete end as
shown in Figs. 3 to 5 on the drawing.
The hereinbefore described metallic ends may be fitted on to a roller by means
of the flange d that forms a part of said plates as represented in section in Fig. 3,
or if it is preferred to employ a cast metal boss as 7, the flange d is made shorter,
and the boss is connected to the plate by being bolted or rivetted thereto as
shown in section in Fig. 5 on the drawing.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
1st. In warpers' beams, weavers' beams and the like, the employment of metallic
ends that are constructed from two stamped steel or iron plates, one of said plates
being plain and the other corrugated, and connected together by the central
portion of said plates being pressed out to form a boss or flange, both the inner and
outer edges of said plates being rolled over so that the edges of the plain plate
shall clip over the edges of the corrugated plate substantially as hereinbefore
described.
2nd. In warpers' beams, weavers' beams and the like the employment of a
metallic end constructed from two stamped steel or iron plates in combination with
a cast metal boss affixed thereto substantially as hereinbefore described.
