Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
194 words
In a cloth roll take up for a loom having a loom warp beam adjacent the rear of the loom and a cloth delivery roll mounted to receive woven cloth carried between loom side frame members adjacent the front of the loom, said take up having means for guiding the cloth from said delivery roll and thence beneath toward the rear of the loom, the improvement comprising: A. a pair of transversely spaced vertical frame members, each including a pair of longitudinally spaced standards, carried laterally outboard independently of said loom frame members adjacent the rear of the loom; B. a mounting platform carried by said frame members above the loom; C. a pair of spaced horizontal transverse friction take up rolls; D. a pair of spaced roll supports carried by said platform in transverse alignment therewith for supporting said pair of take up rolls for rotation above and in substantial vertical alignment with said loom beam; E. means for driving said pair of take up rolls carried by said platform; and F. means for guiding the cloth from beneath the loom substantially vertically behind the loom warp beam to the take up rolls.

In a cloth roll take up for a loom having a loom warp beam adjacent the rear of the loom and a cloth delivery roll mounted to receive woven cloth carried between loom side frame members adjacent the front of the loom, said take up having means for guiding the cloth from said delivery roll and thence beneath toward the rear of the loom, the improvement comprising: A. a pair of transversely spaced vertical frame members, each including a pair of longitudinally spaced standards, carried laterally outboard independently of said loom frame members adjacent the rear of the loom; B. a mounting platform carried by said frame members above the loom; C. a pair of spaced horizontal transverse friction take up rolls; D. a pair of spaced roll supports carried by said platform in transverse alignment therewith for supporting said pair of take up rolls for rotation above and in substantial vertical alignment with said loom beam; E. means for driving said pair of take up rolls carried by said platform; and F. means for guiding the cloth from beneath the loom substantially vertically behind the loom warp beam to the take up rolls.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
46 words
The structure set forth in claim 1, wherein said means for guiding the cloth from beneath the loom includes a transverse roll carried in horizontal alignment with an adjacent take up roll for affording a predetermined wrap of the cloth about said adjacent take up roll.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
The structure set forth in claim 1, including an imperforate shield carried in superposed relation to cloth passing beneath the loom.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
189 words
In a cloth roll take up for a loom having a loom warp beam adjacent the rear of the loom and a cloth delivery roll mounted to receive woven cloth carried between loom side frame members adjacent the front of the loom, said take up having means for guiding the cloth from said delivery roll and thence beneath toward the rear of the loom, the improvement comprising: A. a pair of spaced horizontal friction take up rolls for face driving a cloth roll; B. means for mounting said take up rolls above the loom laterally outboard and independently of the loom; C. means for driving said pair of take up rolls, said means for driving including; D. a reversible motor driving one of said take up rolls at a first speed; E. a driving connection between said rolls causing said one roll to impart rotation at a slightly different second speed to the other take up roll for building a tight cloth roll; and F. means releasing said driving connection when said motor is reversed; whereby cloth may be evenly taken off the roll avoiding any tendency to pucker.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
189 words
In a cloth roll take up for a loom having a loom warp beam adjacent the rear of the loom and a cloth delivery roll mounted to receive woven cloth carried between loom side frame members adjacent the front of the loom, said take up having means for guiding the cloth from said delivery roll and thence beneath toward the rear of the loom, the improvement comprising: A. a pair of spaced horizontal friction take up rolls for face driving a cloth roll; B. means for mounting said take up rolls above the loom laterally outboard and independently of the loom; C. means for driving said pair of take up rolls, said means for driving including; D. a reversible motor driving one of said take up rolls at a first speed; E. a driving connection between said rolls causing said one roll to impart rotation at a slightly different second speed to the other take up roll for building a tight cloth roll; and F. means releasing said driving connection when said motor is reversed; whereby cloth may be evenly taken off the roll avoiding any tendency to pucker.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
42 words
The structure set forth in claim 4, including a transverse roll carried in horizontal alignment with an adjacent take up roll wherein a portion of the peripheries of said rolls are aligned for supporting the cloth roll for removal from the loom.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
164 words
In a cloth roll take up for a loom having a loom warp beam adjacent the rear of the loom and a cloth delivery roll mounted to receive woven cloth carried between loom side frame members adjacent the front of the loom, said take up having means for guiding the cloth from said delivery roll and thence beneath toward the rear of the loom, the improvement comprising: A. a pair of spaced vertical frame members carried laterally outboard and independently of said loom frame members; B. a mounting platform carried by said frame members above the loom; C. a pair of spaced horizontal friction take up rolls; D. a pair of spaced roll supports carried by said platform in alignment therewith for supporting said pair of take up rolls for rotation above said loom; E. means for driving said pair of take up rolls carried by said platform; and F. means for guiding the cloth from beneath the loom to the take up rolls.
