Definitions

  • Non-extensible bands having positive drive gear engagement with the spindles have been tried, but owing to the necessity for crosing the bands in locations having short distances between axes of drive and driven elements, they have not been practicable, since crossing of such bands is impossible.
  • An object of this invention is to provide a spindle driving system using positive drive belts.
  • Still another object is to devise a system in which selected spindles spaced along the length of the machine are gear-driven from a common drive-shaft, and each gearriven spindle drives a series or group of other spindles connected in tandem by positive-drive belts.
  • a further object is to devise a spindle driving system in which a portion only of the machine may be stopped to mfie repairs in that portion and without stopping the entire machine.
  • a still further object is to provide a housing for the spindle drive mechanism for protection against lint and dust, and having transparent sides or openings through which the operation of the driving mechanism may be observed.
  • FIG. 1 is a transverse sectional view through the middle of a spindle housing showing one form of spindle rive according to this invention
  • FIG. 2 is a similar sectional view showing a clutch between the drive shaft and a spindle driven thereby;
  • FIG. 3 is a transverse section showing a modified form of drive
  • PEG. 4 is a transverse section substantially on the line 4-4 of FIG. 7 showing another drive arrangement
  • FIG. 6 is a front elevation showing the arrangement of the driving belts.
  • FIG. 7 is a front elevation of the form shown in FIG. 4.
  • a longtudinally extending spindle housing 1 having parallel top and bottom walls has a vertical partitition 2 extending longitudinally thereof to divide it into front and rear longitudinal compartments.
  • the housing 1 may be constructed in sections arranged end to end and extending throughout the length of the machine.
  • each spindle housing section is left open or provided with an opening 3 extending the length of the section, and the opening is covered with transparent sliding panels 5 (FIGS. 6 and 7), preferably formed of a plastic resin, such as acrylic resin manufactured by Rohm & Haas and known commercially as Plexiglas.
  • a plastic resin such as acrylic resin manufactured by Rohm & Haas and known commercially as Plexiglas.
  • a plurality of spindles 6 and a main driving spindle 7 are mounted in suitable bearings carried by the top and bottom walls of each housing section, the lower ends of the spindles extending vertically downward into the front compartment of the housing.
  • Driving spindle 7 is positioned at the center of the housing section with a number of spindles 6 arranged on each side of it. See FIGS. 5 to 7.
  • Each set of spindles 6 is driven in tandem from spindle 7 by positive-drive belts 9 running over pulleys 8 on adjacent pairs of spindles, see FIGS. 6 and 7.
  • the belts 9 and pulleys 8 are of the positive-drive type and are Well known. Examples of such drives are shown in U.S. Patent to Freedlander No. 1,828,136 and to Talipsky 2,815,671.
  • the belts are of iii-extensible construction, see for example US. Patent to Ballard 2,753,- 980.
  • Each pulley 8, except the pulley at the end of each set, has two toothed grooves to accommodate two belts, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.
  • a horizontal, longitudinal drive shaft 10 which is mounted in suitable bearings 23, 24 and extends throughout the length of the machine.
  • a pinion 13 is mounted on the spindle 7 above the belt pulley 8 thereon and meshes with a spur gear 14 on a vertical shaft 18 mounted in suitable bearings and carrying at the lower end thereof a bevel gear 15 which meshes with a bevel gear 16 on the shaft ill.
  • Rotation of the shaft 10 thus imparts rotation to the main or central spindle 7 by way of gears 13 to 16, and spindles 6 are driven from spindle 7 by way of belts 9.
  • An opening 2a is made in the partition 2 to accommodate the spur gear 14.
  • FIGS. 2 and 5 there is shown a clutch device for interrupting the drive connection between spindle 7 and shaft 10.
  • gear 16 turns freely on shaft 10 but is coupled to turn with the shaft by a clutch element 21 splined to the shaft and being movable into driving engagement with gear 16.
  • the section of shaft 10 which carries gear 16 and clutch part 21 is coupled to adjacent shaft sections by coupling sleeves 25.
  • Clutch part 21 is operated by a fork 26 carried by vertical shaft 27 mounted in suitable hearings in the spindle housing 1 and having an operating handle 23 secured to the lower end thereof.
  • FIG. 3 a modified form of drive for the main spindle '7 is shown in which the shaft 18 has a positivedrive pulley 19 thereon, in lieu of the spur gear 14 of the other forms, and this pulley is connected to the pulley 8 on the spindle 7 by means of a positive-drive belt 17.
  • the partition 2 may be in cluded as in FIGURE 1.
  • FIGS. 4 and 7 A further modified form of drive of the main spindle is show in FIGS. 4 and 7. On the lower part of spindle 7 there is provided a Worm 12 driven by a worm gear 11 mounted on and driven by shaft 10.
  • the pulleys for the positive-drive belts be made of wear-resistant plastics such for example as Ultramid or Poliuretan, as a result of which-even at very high rotary speeds of the spindles (up to 12,000
  • a spindle driving system according .to claim 1 wherein said shaft and said pulleys are enclosed within a housing from Whichsaid spindles extend upwardly, said housing having an opening in one side thereof through which the spindle driving mechanism may be viewed, and transparent sliding panels for covering said opening.
  • a selective positive-drive system for textile spindles comprising in combination'a plurality of spindles arranged in a row and having their lower ends extending into an elongated housing open at both ends, a longitudinally extending drive shaft mounted within said housing parallel with said row, said drive shaft having means at each end for coupling to other shaft sections aligned with said shaft, a positivedriveconnection between said drive shaft and one of said spindles in said row, means for driving the remaining spindles in tandem from said one spindle comprising a positive-drive toothed belt running over positive-drive toothed pulleys mounted on each pair of adjacent pulleys, and a releasable clutch included in said positive drive connection to interrupt the connection between said shaft and'said one spindle without stopping said shaft.
  • said positive drive connection comprises a bevel gear on said shaft, a vertical shaft adjacent said gear, a bevel gear on the vertical shaft meshing with said first bevel gear, a pinion on said one spindle, and a spur gear on the vertical shaft meshing with the pinion.
  • a drive system wherein the bevel gear on the longitudinally extending shaft is mounted for free turning on said shaft, and said releasable clutch including a clutch element slidably mounted by a a vertical partition extending longitudinally in the housing between said drive shaft and said spindles and dividing the housing into two longitudinally extending compartments.
  • Apparatus according to claim 9 further comprising for each clutch element, a fork connected thereto, a clutch arm, a vertical support shaft mounted in suitable bearings to each of said housings adjacent to the drive shaft and connected to the clutch arm, and means connected to said support shaft for selectively controlling the clutch elements.
