Abstract
A frame for a textile machine such as a spinning frame, a twisting machine or a rewinding machine, which includes a series of similar stations, said frame comprising a hollow rectilinear central girder having support elements, such as bosses, webs, notches, and bores, which are integral parts of the girder and are adapted to support, directly and with great accuracy, the parts of the various stations of the machine. The girder is preferably made up of a plurality of lengths fitted together end to end, preferably with end faces perfectly perpendicular to the general direction of the girder. The girder may be cast or extruded.
Claims2
A frame for a textile machine such as a spinning frame, a twisting machine or rewinding machine which includes a series of similar stations, said frame comprising a central longitudinally extending body solely defined by lateral, upper and lower walls providing a hollow girder of rectangular cross section, first wings constituting extensions of the lower wall extending normal to the lateral walls, second wings located between said first wings and the upper wall extending normal to the lateral walls in parallel relationship to the first wings, said first and second wings having plane upper surfaces for supporting machine parts, longitudinally spaced webs integral with the lateral walls and extending between the first wings and second wings providing reinforcing means for the lateral walls and support means for bearings, respectively, with the bearings being adapted to receive machine shafts extending axially of the girder, an internal wall constituting an extension of said second wings extending normal to the lateral walls providing a first conduit between the internal wall, the lateral walls and the upper wall and a second conduit between the internal wall, the lateral walls and the lower wall, and support legs for the girder.
