Abstract
An apparatus for the mechanical needling of pile fabrics onto a winding frame comprising a pair of rotatable suspension frames located at opposite ends of an axle and including radially disposed rows of fabric engaging hooks movable parallel to the axle, actuating means for moving the individual hooks toward the opposite end of the axle in sequence beginning with the radially innermost hooks and progressing to the radially outermost hooks in synchronization with the rotation of the suspension frames, the actuating means including ejector means rotatable with the suspension frames and cam means selectively movable into the path of movement of the ejector means for selectively moving the individual hooks toward the opposite end of the axle.
Claims16
An apparatus for the mechanical needling of pile fabrics onto a winding frame comprising:
- a pair of rotatable suspension frame, each suspension frame being arranged at opposite ends of an axle and including radially disposed rows of equally spaced fabric engaging hooks movable parallel to said axle and defining concentric rings of hooks,
- actuating means for moving the individual hooks toward the opposite end of said axle in a sequence beginning with the radially innermost hooks and progressing to the radially outermost hooks in synchronization with the rotation of said suspension frames,
- said actuating means including ejector means rotatable with said suspension frames, cam means movable into the path of movement of said ejector means and means for moving said cam means into the path of movement of said ejector means for selectively moving said individual hooks toward said opposite end of said axle.
