Definitions

  • This invention relates to a machine for the transformation of reeds into slats or strips suitable for the manufacture of coiling lathwork, baskets, and for other purposes.
  • the reeds are disposed horizontally between inclined bars forming a sort of hopper from whence they are picked up one by one by a distributing wheel which causes them to pass one after the other and end to end between pairs of cylinders which convey them into a centering funnel before they are made to proceed along the axis of adevice provided with rotary knives for the purpose of peeling off the outer surface.
  • the reeds are conveyed into another device containing feed cylinders and provided with a knife for the purpose of slitting the reeds longitudinally.
  • the reeds when thus slit are subsequently opened and flattened in sucha. manner'as to form a sort of wide strip or band composed of narrow strip portions or. elements lying side by side, which however are still bound together by the fibres of the reed that have not been severed by the flattening operation.
  • the ends of the several lengths of reed are then connected together manually by means of flexible metal. fasteners (which are removed when the fabric is woven) in such a manner as to produce a band of very great length, this being wound upon reels which are subsequently employed in a special weaving loom in order to constitute the warp and the woof of the fabric.
  • Fig. 1 shows a diagrammatic representation of apparatus designed for the preparation of reed strips and for winding the same upon reels.
  • Fig. 2 is a side view of the hopper and feed mechanism. 7
  • Fig. 3 is a front view of the apparatus employed for peeling 011' the outer surface of the reeds.
  • Fig. 4% is a cross section of the same.
  • Figs. 5 and 6 represent, in two views, the
  • FIG. 7, 8 and 9 shows details of a fastener employed for this purpose.
  • the reeds l are disposed between the inclined bars 2 which constitute a sort of hopper at whose lower part on the side adjacent the, feed rolls 4 they are picked up one by. one by a distributing wheel 3.
  • This wheel ,3 rotates slowly and depresses one end of each reed as it is picked up by the teeth of each wheel, and'this depressing movement together with the gravity cause the reeds also to have a slight longitudinal movement toward the feed rolls, so..as to feed into the nip of the rolls.
  • the butt ends of the reeds will contact with the upper roll, and there will be some slight friction of the. reed end against the roll assisting it to 1nove into the roll nip.
  • the reed passes between the feed cylinders 7 of the splitting device which contains for this purpose a knife 8 for cutting a longitudinal slit in method employed for temporarily attaching.
  • the upper and lower feed cylinders just mentioned can be spring mounted in order to enable them to take along all kindsof reeds regardless of thickness.
  • the device employed for peeling the reeds as shown in Figs. 3 and f contains a stationary portion 11 provided with a circular toothed crown 12 upon which rotate the two toothed pinions 13 mounted upon the shafts 14, which latter are held in the bearings 15 attached to a plate 16 made in one with a shaft 17 adapted to rotate by means of the pulley 18, this latter being belt connected to any suitable transmission device.
  • the other end of each of the shafts 1 1 carries a gear wheel 19 which transmits the movement to a shaft 20 through a pinion 21.
  • the shaft 20 carries at its inner end a revolving knife 22 which is spring mounted in such manner as to operate properly upon the reed to be peeled, whatever may be the thickness of the latter.
  • the movable plate 16 has a central opening 28 to provide for the passage of the reed to be peeled.
  • Mechanism for transforming reeds into continuous strips for weaving which cemprises a hopper device in which the reeds lie horizontally, said device having at one side a narrow portion, a separating wheel to singly depress the ends of said reeds, feeding rolls to which said reeds are fed singly by said wheel, a guide funnel for the reeds fed from said rolls, a pair of oppositely positioned peeling knives rotatable substantially parallel to the reeds, means to permit axial 'movement of said knives and means to revolve the knives about the reed being peeled, a slitting knife to slit the reeds partly through longitudinally as they emerge from the peeling knives, flattening means to flatten the slit reeds, and a reel onto which the reeds are wound after the flattened reeds have been manually secured end to end.
  • Mechanism for transforming reeds into continuous flat strips for weaving comprising a hopper device in which the reeds lie horizontally, said device having at one side a narrow portion, a separating wheel at such portion to singly depress the ends of the reeds, feeding rolls to which said reeds are fed singly by said wheel, a guide cone to centrally guide the reeds from Said feed rolls, a peeling device to which said.
  • said peeling de vice comprising two peeling blade devices rotatable parallel to said reeds and between which said reeds are fed, means to permit said blade devices to move axially to accommodate reeds of different thicknesses, mechanism to simultaneously rotate and re volve said devices, a stationary knife, rolls to feed the peeled reeds to and from said knife to longitudinally slit the reeds partly through, flattening rolls to flatten'the split reeds and a reel onto which said flattened reeds are wound as they emerge from the flattening rolls, and manually applied temporary fastening means to secure the reeds end to end.
