Definitions

  • the invention is concerned with the means employed for the suspension of bobbins in the creels of textile machines and in analogous situations, such means being of the known type in which a bobbin is arranged to depend upon an attachment capable of rotating upon and swinging freely about an underhung pivot fixed to the creel or the like, and in which, by a relative axial movement of the bobbin on the shank of said attachment a catch incorporated in the latter is caused to engage with, or be disengaged from, an internal shoulder or other projecting part of the bobbin; the arrangement of a suspen sory attachment of this type is such that a bobbin can readily be secured to the attachment by raising it to pass over the free lower extremity of the attachment and pushing it upwardly until the catch is automatically operated to retain the bobbin in the suspended position, a successive similar upward movement of the bobbin relative to the attachment serving to disengage the catch
  • the present invention provides inoperative relationship to the catch, a lever capable of movement to turn the catch from the bobbin-retaining position to the inoperative position, and vice versa, and a pivoted tumbler member adapted to be impinged upon by the bobbin when the latter is moved upwardly on the attachment above the position in which it is ordinarily retained, said tumbler member reacting when so impinged upon to actuate the said lever by the gravitational effect of the tumbler with respect to its pivot so as to engage or release the bobbin from the attachment.
  • the tumbler member is conveniently a weighted rotatable disc mounted eccentrically and having a connection with the catch-operating lever such that, when impinged upon by the bobbin, the disc tumbles over its eccentric axis and thereby throws the catch-operating lever to rotate the catch.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a bobbin-suspensory attachment as seen when depending from the usual creel of a spinning or like machine, the position of a. suspended bobbin being indicated in dotted lines.
  • Fig. 2 is a vertical section through the attachment and bobbin shown in Fig. 1; and Figs. 3 and 4 are similar views to Fig. 2, respectively illustrating the positions of the parts when the bobbin is raised to actuate the mechanism to release the same, and when the bobbin is ofiered to the shank of the attachment preparatory to its being engaged thereon.
  • the attachment consists of a length of strip metal bent upon itself at its mid-point so as to form a loop II! at one end and a pair of limbs II, I2 which together constitute a shank upon or between which are mounted the several parts of the device as hereinafter described.
  • the strip is pierced at the centre of the loop ID by a hole I3 through which passes the swivel H of a connection to the creel, said swivel preferably incorporating a ball-bearing or other anti-friction bearing I5, the attachment being free to rotate or swing laterally from its mounting on the creel (not shown).
  • the limbs II, I2 of the attachment are secured together in spaced relationship, primarily by the rivet I6 and distance-piece I1, and the shank formed thereby is of a thickness capable of being inserted loosely within the hollow interior of a bobbin I8.
  • a pivotal catch or detent 26 made from a plate of substantially lozenge shape.
  • the catch 20 can rotate on said pin I9 between a position in which its major axis is disposed horizontally as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and a position in which the apices 2
  • the apices 2I, 22 of the plate 28 When turned into the firstmentioned position, in which the major axis is horizontal, the apices 2I, 22 of the plate 28 will engage beneath the interior shoulder 23 formed at the upper end of the bore of the bobbin It and thereby prevent the latter from being removed from the attachment.
  • a tapered collar 29, slidable over the shanklimbs II, I2 is arranged so as to be raised by the upper end of the bobbin I8 when this is pushed on to the shank from below, and said collar 29 forms an abutment through which the bobbin can impinge against said weighted disc 21.
  • the disc 21 hangs to one side or other of its pivot mounting 28; when impinged upon by said collar 29 on an upward thrust of a bobbin l8 as aforesaid, the disc 21 is caused to rock or tumble over the axis of the pin 28 to effect the rotation of the catch-plate 20, either into the bobbin-retaining position shown in Figs.
  • the elongated member comprises a bifurcated shank of 'an overall thickness such that it can pass into the hollow interior of a bobbin, the limbs of said shank being spaced apart substantially in parallelism to accommodate between them the said catch member, lever and tumbler member, pivot pins fixed through said limbs for mounting said catch, lever and tumbler on said elongated member, the shape and size of the catch being such that when turned into th inoperative position it can enter with the shank into abobbin passed over the latter.
  • An attachment as claimed in claim 1 wherein there is provided a collar freely slidable on said elongated member so as to normally rest upon an upper end of a bobbin passed over the said elongated member, said collar serving to act as a medium toa'ctuate thetumbler member, and means for retaining the collaronsaid elongated member when'the bobbin i'sremoved.
  • an elo'rigated member adapted for attachment to a creel at one end and for insertion into the hollow bore of a bobbin at its othrwend; a catchflmer'nber pivotally: mounted on said elongated member; an eccentrically mountedtumbler member on'said elongated member, and a link positively connectingsaid catch member and said tumbler member.
  • a collar member slidably surrounding saidelonjgate'd memben I I I 8;
  • a lever pivotally tween said shanks above said catch, a II I rically mounted'betweenjsaid shanks abovefsaid lever, said lever being, connected at its lower-.er'rd' to the said catch and at its upper end to saidjdisc, ,a'collar mounted on saidsha'nksjfor' restricted-sliding" movement thereon, s'aid mov ment being restricted upwardly by notched portions'fo'n said shanksand downwardly by said headed pinfsaid collar when resting on said pin eiigagingsaid'catch to retain the same in'said second position.
