For an improvement in machinery for Making Twisted Roving; Peleg Arnold, Killingly, Windham county, Connecticut, October 6.
"The claim made is to the following parts, put together in the following manner, for making twisted roving, and laying it upon the bobbin. The top part of the flyer is a cylindrical box, which is attached to its arms. This box has a tube, or pipe, passing down the centre, through which the roving descends; the top part of this tube forms the nose, or top bearing, of the flyer, In the box is a heart and gear, connected together by a pipe, or barrel, having a circular horizontal motion round the tube through which the roving descends; this passes down through the centre of the gear, barrel, and heart. The heart has a circular horizontal motion between two prongs of a tube, which gives the tube a vibrating motion that distributes the roving on the bobbin; this tube is hung on pivots at the top, where the prongs are connected; the bearings of the pivots are attached to the box, which turns with the flyer. The regulating circular motion of the heart, and the vibrating motion of the tube, are taken from a circular perpendicular motion of a bobbin, which has a circular horizontal one at the same time, &c."
