very extensively used, and the demand is steadily increasing. All
parts are machined and most of them are made by specially designed
tools.
We give below a description of the construction and chief points of
advantage of these machines.
LOW FRAMING AND CONSTRUCTION--The Frames are built very low, are extra
heavy in all their principal parts, and are designed and constructed
so as to stand high speeds without vibration, thus preserving the
spindles, ensuring light running and reducing the cost of repairs.
SPINDLE RAILS--These are of the box pattern, specially heavy, and
designed to prevent springing, twisting and vibration.
LIFTING RODS--The Lifting Rods, as will be seen in the several
illustrations, do not have any foot castings attached to them. They
can therefore be easily taken out, cleaned and put back without the
necessity of readjustment. These rods are accurately turned and
finished by a special process to prevent sticking. The Wave Shaft Arms
are designed so that the Ring Rails can be easily leveled by means of
adjusting screws.
CREELS--The Creels are constructed with large diameter supporting rods
so as to ensure rigidity, reduce vibration and prevent stretching the
roving.

{143}
FLUTED ROLLS--These steel rolls are carefully and accurately made from
superior stock by special machinery. They have large Necks and Squares
and are irregularly fluted so as not to cut the Top Rolls.
TOP ROLLS--These have taper ends or pivots, and the Cap Bar Nebs are
milled to correspond, thus making it easy to pick the ends and keep
them clean.
CAP BARS--These are made with steel fingers which do not break. The
upper surface of each finger is flat. The Cap Bar Nebs, which slide on
the fingers, are milled and are fastened in position by cap or frog
screws so that they cannot twist or get out of place. This arrangement
enables the Top Rolls to be accurately set, and makes it much more
easy to see the necks of the Bottom Rolls and keep them properly
lubricated without removing the Top Rolls or Cap Bars.
RE-LEVELLING--This is now an easy matter and quickly done. Packing up
the feet is no longer necessary. The foot of each Spring Piece is
provided with a shoe and jack screw, by which it can be raised or
lowered to meet any unevenness in the floor.
TRAVERSE RODS AND GUIDES--Iron Traverse Rods are applied, to which are
attached adjustable Brass Trumpet Guides.
ADJUSTABLE THREAD BOARDS--Our Thread Boards are adjustable. They can be
raised or lowered so as to give, within reasonable limits, any
required distance between the Spindle points and Thread Guides.

{145}
RINGS--We furnish Single Flange Rings, Double Rings in cast iron
Holders, with or without Patent Wire Traveler Clearers, or Double
Adjustable Rings in Plate Holders with Traveler Clearers. All Rings
are made and finished in the most accurate manner, from a special
grade of steel and hardened by improved methods.
SPINDLES--We supply any of the latest improved types of Spindles.
SEPARATORS--We supply the Rhodes-Chandler, Sharples, Doyle or H. & B.
(our own). See description, page 153.
SADDLES--The Dixon ordinary, Dixon adjustable or common Saddles are
applied as required.
LEVER SCREWS--The Speakman or Common are furnished as specified.
{146}
DRIVING PULLEYS are of our own improved design. The Loose Pulley runs
on a cast iron sleeve, which is a part of the ring oiling box. Oil
passes through holes in the bottom of this sleeve and lubricates the
Loose Pulley. Our method of supporting the shaft and Loose Pulley
together with the perfect lubrication of both prevents the wearing of
the shaft, sleeve or Loose Pulley.
[Illustration]
RING OILING OUTRIGGER BEARING AND SELF LUBRICATING LOOSE PULLEY
The Fast Pulley is usually made slightly larger in diameter than the
Loose Pulley and is secured to the shaft by a Woodruff key and set
screws.
THE OUTRIGGER for supporting the Driving Pulleys can be applied at
either the head or foot end, as specified.
{147}
Our improved Cylinder Head is made with a wide surface for the tin and
has a long hub split at the end for several inches.
The split portion of the hub is made to grip the shaft by means of a
heavy clamp ring and set screw. The shaft cannot be cut by this set
screw as it bears on the split hub.
[Illustration]
CYLINDER HEAD BEARING AND CAP
The shafts are steel, fitted with Woodruff Keys and Phosphor Bronze
Bushes with Collars, which make the bearings self-oiling and
practically free from wear. Heavy tin is used in the construction of
the Cylinders which are carefully balanced and thoroughly tested.
{148}

TWIST GEARING
Simplicity and convenience characterize our Ring Spinning Frame
gearing. All gears are cut. They are of ample width, run quietly and
are well boxed to prevent accidents.
{149}
[Illustration]
DRAFT GEARING
The change gears are very conveniently located and a wide range of
draft and twist can easily be obtained.
{150}
[Illustration]
BUILDER FOR RING SPINNING FRAME
{151}
IMPROVED BUILDER.
When designing our improved Spinning Frame Builder, special attention
was given to obtaining a wide range in form and build of bobbin
combined with simplicity and durability. The changes necessary when
altering the wind, pick or traverse have been reduced to a minimum.
The Builder is a combination type, and the change from warp to
filling, or vice versa, can be easily and quickly made.
The illustration shows a filling cam only on the cam shaft, but when
warp and filling wind are wanted, two cams are placed on this shaft.
The length of the traverse is determined by the adjustable Wave Shaft
Stud, which can be easily and quickly raised or lowered, and the Ring
Rail can be placed at the correct starting point by means of a thumb
nut. The Pick or Take-up Motion is very simple. The pawl is on a plate
which has a gear at the back. This gear is driven by a Quadrant which
is connected to the top of the Builder. The pawl shield is set so that
any required number of teeth can be taken up and no change gears are
used.
In the Builder Arm is an adjusting screw, which is used with warp wind
to regulate the taper on the bobbin. The taper can be decreased at the
bottom and increased at the top by turning in this screw.
When the foot lever is pressed, it throws the Worm out of gear and
allows the rail to be dropped. After winding back the Pick Motion, the
Frame is ready for doffing and starting a new set.
An eccentric device is applied to enable the "Socket Doff" to be used
when desired.
The Worm Gear Shaft is driven by a sprocket chain in the bead end. The
speed of this shaft and consequently the speed of the traverse is
increased or decreased by changing the Sprocket Gear.
The bevel gears are well protected from dust and fly by a cover, and
the Builder screw itself is provided with a cleaner which prevents the
collection of dirt in the threads.

HOWARD & BULLOUGH PATENT AUTOMATIC SEPARATOR
{153}
HOWARD & BULLOUGH PATENT AUTOMATIC SEPARATOR
It has been our aim to combine in this new Separator simplicity and
lightness with effectiveness and rigidity. All Separators collect
lint, but the Howard & Bullough has so few parts and is so easily
cleaned that this disadvantage is reduced to a minimum. The Separator
rod holders, which allow the blades to be thrown back out of position
for doffing, are neat and strong.
Vibration in a Separator means bad work, and we have given special
attention to this point, as evidenced by the double bearings for the
lifting rods, the stiffness of the Separator rod carrying the blades,
and the general design. In case the operator neglects to return the
blades to their working position after doffing, this is taken care of
by a curved stop or bracket attached to the roller beam. Easy
adjustment for both long and short traverse is a good feature of this
Separator.
{154}
FLOOR SPACE OF RING SPINNING FRAMES.
[Illustration]
We make 36-in. or 39-in. framing as required. When extra large
diameter roving bobbins are used and the creels are required to take
double roving, the 39-in. framing is needed to obtain enough space in
the creels.
To ascertain the length of Spinning Frames with any number of
spindles: Multiply one-half the number of spindles by the gauge and
add 2 ft. 1 in. for head and off ends.
Although it is advantageous when possible to keep to the number of
spindles given in the table on the opposite page, other lengths can be
built, but even boxes are preferable.
DRIVING PULLEYS are 8 in. to 18 in. dia., 3-1/4 in. face.

RING TWISTERS.
FOR DRY OR WET TWISTING.
Our Ring Twister resembles our Spinning Frame, both in construction
and design, and the descriptive matter on pages 140 and 151 apply to
this machine.
The marked success of our Spinning Frame led us to build a Twister
embodying the same improvements and special features which have been
so much appreciated. All parts are machined, and are interchangeable.
LOW FRAMING AND HEAVY RIGID CONSTRUCTION--The frames are built very
low, are extra heavy in all their principal parts and are designed and
constructed so as to stand high speeds without vibration, thus
preserving the spindles, insuring light running and reducing the cost
of repairs.
DRY AND WET TWISTING--We build machines for either Dry or Wet Twisting.
When for wet work the bottom and top rolls are covered with brass, and
brass troughs are provided for the water. The yarn is submerged by
means of glass rods which are easily raised or lowered.
ARRANGEMENT OF ROLLS--Machines are built with any of the following
arrangements of Rolls:
Single Line Bottom Rolls, and Single Line Top Rolls.
Double Line Bottom Rolls, and Single Line Top Rolls.
Double Line Bottom Rolls, and Double Line Top Rolls.
SPINDLES--Any of the improved modern high-speed spindles are supplied
as required. We do not make any Twisters with common or old style "Two
Rail" spindles.
KNEE BRAKES are furnished when required.
GAUGES AND RINGS--We build machines from 2-1/2-in. gauge with 1-1/2-in.
rings up to 5-1/2-in. gauge with 4-1/2-in. rings. Any desired form or
style of ring will be furnished. All of these rings are made from
high-grade steel of special analysis, hardened by improved methods and
accurately finished.

CONE WINDER
{223}
CONE AND TUBE WINDERS.
Although these machines are adapted to the winding of all kinds of
yarns, they are especially good for soft hosiery and underwear yarns
which should be handled so as to retain their full strength and
elasticity.
OPEN WIND--This feature of our machine, together with its general
improved construction, enables it to wind the most delicate yarns. The
open wind with its irregular coils is of great advantage, as
stretching of the yarn is avoided and it unwinds freely in the
knitting process.
CONE AND PARALLEL WIND--These machines are built for winding either
cones or parallel tubes, from cops, bobbins, spools or skeins.
STOP MOTIONS--These are applied to all machines. The Detector Holders
and Drop Wires are supplied for one or more ply, as required. When a
thread breaks, the individual drum stops, thus preventing waste or
single. The Stop Motions are quick and positive, and the piecing up is
very easily done.
FRAMING AND CONSTRUCTION--The Winders are strong and durable. No wood
is used in their construction, except for the top shelves and Friction
Boards. All gearing is cut. The Casing-off Plates on each side are
hinged, which facilitates cleaning.
UNIFORM TENSION--The conical and parallel Mandrels are driven by
friction from the drums, and consequently the increase in diameter of
the cones or tubes does not alter the tension on the yarn.
IMPROVED MANDRELS--These fit firmly in the paper cones at both ends.
The cones are very easily removed, and although they may vary in size
or shape, any irregularities are taken care of by the Mandrels.
