Year: 1877

page_text: LETTERS PATENT to William Murray, of Manchester, in the County of
Lancaster, Manufacturer, for the Invention of "CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS IN PIN
BOBBIN WINDING CUPS."
Sealed the 29th June 1877, and dated the 3rd January 1877.
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION left by the said William Murray at the
Office of the Commissioners of Patents on the 3rd January 1877.
WILLIAM MURRAY, of Manchester, in the County of Lancaster, Manufacturer.
"CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS IN PIN BOBBIN WINDING CUPS."
This Invention consists of certain improvements in pin bobbin winding cups,
and the improvements has for its object the making of a pin bobbin winding cup
that shall protect the yarn from dirt, damp, or other injurious effects. I make
these pin bobbin winding cups of glass, china, or pottery ware, and the same is
produced by means of moulds; the form of the inside of the mould for the pin
bobbin winding cup is to be so. shaped that when the cup is moulded it will be the
shape of the pin bobbin required to be wound in it.
The advantages of this Invention are that the pin bobbin winding cup being
made of glass, china, or pottery ware, will preserve and keep clean the most delicate
yarn that may be wound upon the pin bobbin, and the pin bobbin with the material
half or partly wound off may be left to stand in it for a length of time, and the yarn
will be kept clean and sound, and, moreover, it will protect the said yarn from
damp or wet, and the said pin bobbin winding cup can be kept clean with little care
or attention.
Another advantage of my Invention consists in the fact that they can be pro-
duced much cheapar than those now in use and which are generally made of iron,
which gets wet and damp and is very injurious to the yarns, especially those of a
delicate character.

"CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS IN PIN BOBBIN WINDING CUPS."
This Invention consists of certain improvements in pin bobbin winding cups,
and the improvements has for its object the making of a pin bobbin winding cup
that shall protect the yarn from dirt, damp, or other injurious effects. I make
these pin bobbin winding cups of glass, china, or pottery ware, and the same is
produced by moulds or other suitable means; the form of the inside of the mould
for the pin bobbin winding cup is to be so shaped that when the cup is moulded
or pressed by the mould, the inside of the cup will be the same shape as the pin
bobbin required to be wound in the cup, as the cup is to form the shape of the yarn
upon the pin bobbin when the pin bobbin is being wound in the cup.
The advantages of this Invention are that the pin hobbin winding cup being
made of glass, china, or pottery ware, will preserve and keep clean the most delicate
yarn that may be wound upon the pin bobbin, and the pin bobbin with the material
half or partly wound off may be left to stand in it for a length of time, and the
yarn will be kept clean and sound, and, moreover, it will protect the said yarn
from damp or wet, and the said pin bobbin winding cup can be kept clean with
little care or attention.
· Another advantage of my Invention consists in the fact that they can be pro-
duced much cheaper than those now in use and which are generally made of iron,
which gets wet and damp and is very injurious to the yarns, especially those of a
delicate character.
.
And in order that my said Invention may be properly understood, I have on the
annexed Drawings, Fig. 1, shewn one of my pin bobbin winding cups empty; and
Fig. 2 represents the same with the pin bobbin in it.
Having thus described the nature and object of my said Invention, I declare that
what I claim and desire to be secured to me by the herein-before in part recited
Letters Patent is, the improvements in pin bobbin winding cups by manufacturing
them of glass, china, or pottery ware, as herein-before described and shewn on
Drawing.
In witness whereof, I, the said William Murray, have hereunto set my hand
and seal, this Second day of July, in the year of our Lord One thousand
eight hundred and seventy-seven.
WILLIAM MURRAY.. (L.S.)
