Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a combing machine and, more particularly, to the components of such a machine including an element that is commonly termed the sword.
  • the function of the sword in these operations is to hold the fibers in a proper position to be advanced into the detaching rolls.
  • the present invention has been made, and an object of the invention is, accordingly, to provide a sword mechanism by means of which all of the fibers of a fleece (particularly in a worsted comb) may be eifee tively positioned and combed as they move into the detaching rolls.
  • a sword the fiber-engaging face of which is formed as an abrasive, and also by providing teeth on the lower edge of the sword to comb the fringe fibers of the fleece as they are drawn forwardly into the detaching rolls.
  • FIG. 1 is a view in cross section taken through a combing machine constructed in accordance with the present invention and illustrating a sword formed in accordance with this invention
  • FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 showing the parts of the mechanism in a different position and illustrating the manner in which the sword performs its function;
  • FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2 and illustrating the final stage of operation of the sword in combing the fringe fibers of the fleece as they advance into the detaching rolls.
  • the frame of a combing machine is illustarted at lit and is provided with a comb cylinder 11 provided with needles 12 which perform the combing operation as is generally well understood in the art.
  • the fibers are fed to the combing elements by mechanism not illustrated herein but which may be similar to the corresponding parts of the combing machines illustrated in the patents above-mentioned.
  • the top comb is not illustrated in these drawings as the showing of this element is not believed to be essential to the understanding of the present invention.
  • a plurality of detaching rolls comprising a top roll 13 and spaced bottom rolls 14 and 15 are shown at the lefthand view of each of the drawings, these detaching rolls serving to hold the fleece, indicated generally at 16, and to advance it in accordance with standard procedures.
  • a sword 17 is illustrated as supported upon arms 18 in accordance with standard practice, the sword itself being generally of a form commonly available in machines of this general character.
  • the sword moves upwardly and downwardly between positions illustrated in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3.
  • the fringe 19 (which has been detached from the remaining portions of the fleece which are not illustrated) is supported upon the sword 17 so that it does not come in contact with the teeth 12 of the bottom comb or cylinder.
  • the face 24 is roughened or provided with an abrasive surface in accordance with the present invention.
  • the lower portion of the sword 17 is provided with a multiplicity of teeth 21 which function as illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the fibers of the fringe are curled as illustrated in FIG. 2 and, during the final movement of the sword, these fibers fall downwardly and are engaged by the needles or teeth 21 to insure that they are combed and thus positioned in parallel relationship to each other and to the direction .of travel of the fleece.
  • the rotation of the detaching rolls thus serves to draw the fibers through the needles and, as the previously detached remaining fibers are received and joined with the fringe fibers 19, the detaching rolls deliver a fleece that has been combed effectively throughout all of its portions.
  • a sword for use in fiber-combing machines having detaching rolls said sword having a fiber-engaging face roughened sufliciently to hold the fibers of an advancing fleece adjacent thereto as they advance into said detaching rolls and a plurality of needles adjacent the lower edge thereof with said sword in its operative position.
  • a sword for combing the fringe fibers of said fleece as they advance into said detaching rolls, said sword having a fiber engaging abrasive surface facing said rolls and a plurality of needles adjacent the lower edge thereof.
