Abstract
Abstract A temple roller device for use on a loom for weaving cloth having a support rod with a flattened portion extending in its longitudinal direction and an aperture in each of a plurality of bearings with flanges thereon, each bearing supporting a small wheel, and in which the bearing aperture has a ''''bulge'''' at the location of the flattened portion which is aligned with that one of two locations at which, if the aperture is assumed to be round, in consequence of the oblique position thereof, the thickness of the bearing is a minimum, and which is located at the end of the bearing opposite the flange.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
194 words
A temple roller device for use on a loom for weaving cloth, having a plurality of small wheels each mounted for rotation on a circular-cylindrical bearing face of a bearing, each bearing being flanged on one side and having a circular aperture extending completely through the bearing and its flange, through which aperture a support rod of circular cross-section is positioned, so that the bearings are aligned juxtaposed along the said support rod, the circular-cylindrical bearing face of each bearing arranged obliquely to the centerline of said aperture in order to arrange each of the bearing faces and the small wheels obliquely relative to the longitudinal axis of said support rod, said support rod having a flattened surface portion extending in its longitudinal direction and said circular aperture in each bearing having a raised portion that fits said flattened portion on said support rod, said flattened portion being aligned with that one of the two locations at which, if the apertures are assumed to be round, in consequence of the oblique position thereof, the thickness of the bearing is a minimum and which is located at the end of the bearing opposite the flange.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
194 words
A temple roller device for use on a loom for weaving cloth, having a plurality of small wheels each mounted for rotation on a circular-cylindrical bearing face of a bearing, each bearing being flanged on one side and having a circular aperture extending completely through the bearing and its flange, through which aperture a support rod of circular cross-section is positioned, so that the bearings are aligned juxtaposed along the said support rod, the circular-cylindrical bearing face of each bearing arranged obliquely to the centerline of said aperture in order to arrange each of the bearing faces and the small wheels obliquely relative to the longitudinal axis of said support rod, said support rod having a flattened surface portion extending in its longitudinal direction and said circular aperture in each bearing having a raised portion that fits said flattened portion on said support rod, said flattened portion being aligned with that one of the two locations at which, if the apertures are assumed to be round, in consequence of the oblique position thereof, the thickness of the bearing is a minimum and which is located at the end of the bearing opposite the flange.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
62 words
The temple roller device according to claim 1 in which the oblique position of the bearings and the small wheels relative to the longitudinal axis of the support rod increases as to its degree of inclination in the direction away from the free end of said temple roller device towards the end serving for securing the temple roller device to the loom.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
86 words
The temple roller device according to claim 1 in which all the flanges are disposed on identically located ends of their bearings and in that there is additionally provided at the end of said bearings serving for securing the temple roller device an end bearing having a flange, which is formed with an aperture in the same manner as said other bearings and the flange of which is located on that side of the end bearing which faces the free end of the temple roller device.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
55 words
The temple roller device according to claim 3 in which said obliquely arranged bearings and flanges extend obliquely in such manner that in the zone of contact with the cloth they are more remote from the free end of the temple roller device than they are in their zone which is free from the cloth.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
53 words
The temple roller device according to claim 3 in which each of said small wheels is arranged on a plastic sleeve, one sleeve applied on each bearing, and each sleeve has a lateral wall with the small wheel fitted thereon being disposed between the said lateral wall and the flange of the bearing.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
41 words
The temple roller device according to claim 1 in which the apertures formed in the bearing and the flange have a raised portion corresponding to the flattened surface portion and adapted to bear over their entire periphery on said support rod.
