Description

UNITED STATES 1PM-ENT OFFICE.
4JOSEPH wfvvATTLES, o'FoANToN, MASsAcHUsETTs.
Speciiication forming part of Letters PatentNo. 75,610, dated March 17, 186l.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J osnrn W. WnTTLEs,
, of Canton, in the county of NorfolkV and State of Massachusetts, have made a' new and use-- ful invention having referencento the Bing-and- Traveler Spinning-Frame; and I do hereby declare the same to be fully described 'in the following specication and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is a top view, and Fig; 2 a transverse section, of a ring-rail and ring with my invention applied thereto. Fig. 3 is a side elevation, and Fig. 4 an under-side view, of the ring and its shank. Fig. 5 is a top view, and Fig. 6 a Side view, of the ring-receiver. Fig. 7 is a top view of the ring-rail and spindle Without the ring and its receiver.
The purpose of my present invention or improvement is to enable the ring and its receiver tobe held together and in the ring-rail by the pressure of a single screw.
0n May 24, 1864, Letters Patent of the United States (No. 42,829) were granted to John Birkenhead for a mode of adjusting rings :and ring-rails in ring-and-traveler spinningrames.
In carrying out his invention the said Birk enhead appliedt the ring an eccentric cylindrical shank, which, when placed in the socket of the ring-rail and turned around, would bring the ring concentric with the spindle, the latter being out of its normal position, owing to wear of its bearings or other causes well understood. y
The difficulty With'the invention of Birkenhead is, that it is inapplicable to the ring-rail when the spindle is in its normal position, or concentric with the socket of the rail. It also requiresthe eccentricity of the ring-shank to correspond with theeccentricity of the spindle. Thus every vertical deiiection of the spindle'will require a corresponding or new eccentric-ring. n, This renders Birkenheads invention of very limited use.
I have combined with the eccentric-ring of Birkenheadwhatltermareceiver,oranother ring made with a shank to t the rail-socket, and having a bore eccentric with the cylindrical outer surface of such shank. This receiver is to be inserted within the rail-socket,
and is to support the ring provided with an eccentric-shankv to fit into the bore of the receiver.
The receiver may be applied to the railsocket-when concentric with the spindle; and, however the spindle may :eccentric to the ring and the socket, by reafter'ward' become volving the receiver in the socket and the ring 'in the receiver, we shall be able to bring or adjust the ring so as to be concentric with the spindlei The rin g-receiver I form as a thin' ring, easily sprung diametrically by pressure of the set-screw used to hold it in place in the socket of the ring-rail. In order to have the receiver readily compressible on the shank of the ring, I split the receiver through its circumference by sawing through the same or removing therefrom a small portion, so that the ring may not be an entire circle.
In the drawings, A denotes the rin g-rail 5 B, its socket D, the ring, and a the shank thereof; E, the receiver, and b its shank.
The outer cylindric surface of the shank of the ring is eccentric with respect to the race- Way c andthe bore of the ring. The bore of the receiver is cylindrical and eccentric with respect to the outer surface of the shank of such receiver, the whole being as represented in the drawings. Y
The supporting-flange of the ring is shown at o, and that of the receiver is exhibited at f.
The screw for holding the receiver and the ring together and within the socket of the ring-rail is seen at g as screwed into the ringrail and radially against the outer surface of the receiver. The cross-cut or opening of the receiver is shown at h, it being what is usually termed a split ring.77 A
When, for the purpose of fastening the re ceiver, a screw is employed togo through the latter, the receiver has to be clamped about onefourth of an inch above the ring-rail, the same being as shown in Fig. S, which is a side view of a ring-rail not only having such a receiver and its ring applied to it, but also showing a receiver and ring as made and applied in accordance with my improvement. It also shows the common ring without a receiver, and held in place on the rail by a single screw. In this figure, Ais the ring-rail 5 F, the common ring; H, the ring with the'elevated receiver I, fastened .together by a clamp-screw, another screw, t, being employed to hold the receiver in the rail-socket.
My improved receiver and ring are shown in Fig. 8, at K and L, as held together and on the rail by a single screw, u.
By examination of Fig. 8 it Will be seen that the top surface of my ring L is no higher above the rail than that of the common ring F, While that of the elevated ring H is very much higher. This eXtra elevation of the ring above the ring-rail causes the yarn to be laid out of place, or too high on the spindle, especially when the ring H and its receiver I are substituted for the old or common ring, or that of Birkenhead; but, with my improvement, as the ring L and receiver K will stand no higher than the common ring above the rail, there will be no such improper laying of the yarn on the spindle.
I do not herein claim the said invention of the said Birkenhead. Nor do I intend herein to claim the combination of the annulus or receiver C, having an eccentric bore, as described, with the ring D,provided with an eccentricshan1gas set forth', such combination being the subject of another application for a patent recentlyr made by me.
I am aware that it is not new to apply to the y journal of a shaft a split tubular bearing, to
be compressed upon the shaft by means of a screw, such being as shown inthe United States Patents Nos. 50,469 and 60,155. Therefore I make no claim thereto.
I claim-e The ring-receiver constructed substantially as described-that is to say, not only with a shank to tit the rail-socket, and with a bore eccentric with the cylindrical outer surface of such shank, as described, but also so as to be capable of lbeing sprung or contracted upon the shank of the ring by the screw inserted in the rail, and employed to conine the receiver in the socket of the rail, as set forth.
