Abstract

Abstract A loom takeup apparatus is illustrated wherein cloth is fed directly from the loom to the takeup utilizing an oscillating roll which is slidably mounted for axial oscillation on the longitudinal axis of the roll for distributing the cloth so that the edge or selvage portions which are often thickened do not remain in register but rather build in such a fashion as to avoid excessively large end portions of the roll.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
Loom takeup apparatus having a cloth roll supported between a pair of driven rolls receiving cloth directly from a loom comprising; a guide roll adjacent said pair of driven rolls receiving cloth from the loom in open width passing thereover to one of said driven rolls for winding on said cloth roll; means mounting said guide roll for axial oscillatory sliding movement in parallel alignment with said pair of driven rolls; means driven for oscillatory movement; means carrying said guide roll for rotation by said cloth passing thereover; and means connecting said means driven for oscillatory movement to said guide roll for imparting oscillatory movement thereto for distributing said cloth upon said cloth roll.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
Loom takeup apparatus having a cloth roll supported between a pair of driven rolls receiving cloth directly from a loom comprising; a guide roll adjacent said pair of driven rolls receiving cloth from the loom in open width passing thereover to one of said driven rolls for winding on said cloth roll; means mounting said guide roll for axial oscillatory sliding movement in parallel alignment with said pair of driven rolls; means driven for oscillatory movement; means carrying said guide roll for rotation by said cloth passing thereover; and means connecting said means driven for oscillatory movement to said guide roll for imparting oscillatory movement thereto for distributing said cloth upon said cloth roll.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
The structure set forth in claim 1, wherein said means driven for oscillatory movement are linkage means, and wherein said means connecting said means driven for oscillatory movement provide a flexible connection.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 87 words
Loom takeup apparatus having a cloth roll supported for directly receiving cloth woven upon a loom comprising: a guide roll receiving said cloth directly in open width passing thereover for winding on said cloth roll; means mounting said guide roll for axial oscillatory sliding movement in alignment with the longitudinal axis of said roll; means carrying said guide roll for rotation by said cloth passing thereover to said cloth roll; and means imparting oscillatory movement to said guide roll for distributing said cloth upon said cloth roll.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 87 words
Loom takeup apparatus having a cloth roll supported for directly receiving cloth woven upon a loom comprising: a guide roll receiving said cloth directly in open width passing thereover for winding on said cloth roll; means mounting said guide roll for axial oscillatory sliding movement in alignment with the longitudinal axis of said roll; means carrying said guide roll for rotation by said cloth passing thereover to said cloth roll; and means imparting oscillatory movement to said guide roll for distributing said cloth upon said cloth roll.
