  • This invention relates to bearings for spindles or shafts and applications thereof, and its principal aim is to provide new or improved bearings for spindles or shafts which shall enable vibration to be very efficiently damped or obviated and the spindles or shafts to be run satisfactorily at high or very high speeds.
  • the invention is particularly applicable for textile spindles for use in spinning, twisting, doubling, i inding, and analogous textile operations on natural or artificial fibres, filaments, threads or yarns, especially where high oi very high spindle speeds are desired, but it can also be applied with advantage to other spindles or shafts.
  • crepe twisting or doubling of tions in which high or very high speeds are de sirable may be mentionedhigh speed spinning, twisting or doubling of threads or yarns of artificial or natural fibres or filaments by ring and traveller, flyer, cap spindle or other threads or yarns of artificial or natural filaments or fibres wherein a high twist is required to be imparted to the threads or yarns in the doubling of same; twisting and winding artificial silk in centrifugal boxes or by other devices continuously with its production by the wet-spinning or coagulation method; winding or twisting and winding threads or yarns of artificial filaments of cellulose acetate or other cellulose derivatives continuously with the formation of the filaments by dry-spinning Or evaporative methods, for instance, twisting and winding threads or yarns of such dry spun filaments in centrifugal boxes or by fiyer, ring and traveller or
  • the present invention provides a novel type of vibration damping bearing for textile spindles or other spindles or shafts, with the aid of which the spindles or shafts can be run practically and successfully at higher or much higher speeds than just mentioned, for example at speeds of 10,000 to 25,000 R. P. M. or more, and especially 15,000 to 20,000 E. P. M., with avoidance or great reduction of the wear and deterioration which has previously been occasioned by lateral vibration as before mentioned.
  • the invention is especially intended for application to spindles or shafts required or desired to run at very high speeds, such as referred to, but it will be understood that it can be applied to spindles or shafts required to run at any lower speed.
  • a vibration damping bearing comprises one or' more members surrounding the spindle or shaft and sharing lateral vibration of the spindle or shaft, but not being in fixed or driving connection with it, said member or members being arranged and adapted, under the effect of the lateral vibration of the spindle or shaft, to slide transversely to the axis thereof on or between a member or members freely surrounding or located about and clear of the spindle or shaft, and thereby to damp or absorb the energy of vibration by sliding friction between the surfaces of the respective members, with or without, but
  • first mentioned. member or members as the spindle member or members and to the second mentioned member or members as the bearing member or members.
  • the spindle member or members and the bearing member or members may be of any suitable form or construction provided that they are so arranged in relation to each other and to the spindle or shaft that under the effect of lateral vibration of the spindle or shaft the spindle member or members can slide on or between the bearing member or members transversely to the axis of the spindle or shaft as mentioned.
  • the vibration damping bearing may comprise any desired number of the spindle members and bearing members referred to; it may be a single pair or two or more pairs of said members; or a spindle member disposed between two bearing members; or a series of spindle members disposed alternately with bearing members; or any other arrangement such that under the action of lateral vibration of the spindle or axle the spindle member or members can slide transversely to the axis thereof on or between the bearing member or members for the purpose mentioned.

  • the spindle or shaft may be mounted in one, two or more vibration damping bearings of the character hereinbefore described or one or more of such bearings may be employed in association with another type or types of bearing.
  • a vibration damping bearing of the character before described may be employed for damping purposes, in association with a bearing of the self-alignment type, such for example as a bearing of a known or suitable cup and ball type for taking the load, and such a combination of bearings could assist in damping down vibrations, or precessional eifects, arising from an unbalanced load, for instance, from an unbalanced bobbin, or from a chance blow on the spindle or a bobbin or other member carried thereby.
  • the invention includes the application of such bearings or moun V ings to spindles in the textile industry for any spinning, twisting, doubling, winding or like operations on threads or yarns of natural or artificial fibres or filaments.
  • the invention likewise especially includes the application of such hearings or mountings to spindles employed for twisting and winding, or winding, threads or yarns of artificial filaments continuously with their production by wet or dry-spinning methods, and particularly for twisting and winding, or winding, threads or yarns of artificial lilaments on or in connection with dry-spinning metiers or apparatus continuously with their production by evaporative or dry-spinning.
  • vibration damping bearings according to the invention is that the employment or incorporation of ball bearings in them may be dispensed with; we have foimd in fact that at very high or extremely high spindle or shaft speeds such as those for which the present invention is principally intended, ball bearings rapidly break down owing to wear and destruction of the balls.
  • a driven spindle mounted in bearings is made in hollow form to take a traversing rod carrying a cap or other device co-operating with the spindle to twist and wind the thread on the bobbin or other carrier mounted on the spindle.

  • Fig. 2 is a horizontal section on the line 13-13 of Fig. 1 and shows a plan view of one of the discs, and
  • Fig. is a plan view of a modified disc.
  • the spindle l is mounted in twovibration damping bearings, designated generally as I and II disposed at an interval apart, each bearing comprising a metal housing 2, for instance, of steel, constructed in the form of a cylindrical cup, the rotating spindle passing up through the bases 3 of the housings, with allowance of a small amount of freedom, and being provided, above'the upper housing, with a carrier or support 4. for the bobbin, tube, or other member driven by the spindle.
  • the housings are fixed on frame members or other suitable parts of the machine or apparatus and the spindle is suitably driven, for instance by a strap pulley 5 secured on it in the space between the bearing housings.
  • each housing are assembled alternate metal discs respectively constituting the spindle members 6 and the bearing members 7, these discs being formed with central holes or bores and the spindle passing up through them.
  • two bearing member discs '7 are arran ed in each housing with one spindle member disc 6 arranged between them, but
  • any other number of alternate bearing member discs and spindle member discs may be arranged in each housing.
  • the spindle member discs may appropriately be of steel and the bearing member discs of gun metal of phosphor bronze.
  • each spindle member disc of each bearing is given a slight clearance 9 between its outer periphery and the internal wall of the housing and is a fairly close sliding fit on the spindle with such a construction, it is evident that should there be lateral movement of the spindle due to vibration, a small lateral transverse movement of the spindle member discs on or between the bearing member discs can take'place and friction will be set up between the superimposed discs which will act to damp lateral vibration of the spindle.
  • the housings of the bearings may be closed at the top by cover plates 10 screwed into or otherwise mounted on the housings through which the spindle passes with a small clearance, and, if desired, a washer 11 of felt or other suitable material may be fitted between the cover plate and the spindle.
  • each face of each disc is formed with a number of shallow concentric grooves 12 and similar grooves 13 may be provided in the bottom inner face of each housing.
  • each disc is perforated with a number of small holes 14. Said grooves andholes under normal conditions will be filled with oil, or lubricant contained in or supplied to the bearing.
  • the grooves are intended to give an augmented damping effect, with the aid of a shearing action that takes place on the oil or lubricant in the grooves when lat oral or transverse movement of the spindle member discs occurs under the efiect of lateral vibration of the spindle.
  • the holes can also produce this action to a less degree, and can also have a damping effect on rotational movement between the discs, but their chief object is to maintain a flow or circulation of the oil or lubricant through or in the hearing. It will also be seen that there is a tendency for the spindle member discs to turn or slide around on or between the bearing member discs when the spindle is rotated, and to damp vibration during this turning or sliding, radial, spiral, or similar grooves 15 are formed in some or all of the contacting faces of the discs.
  • the cylindrical interior face of each housing may also be formed with vertical, helical, or inclined grooves 16 for the passage or flow of the oil or lubricant between it and the peripheries of the discs.
