摘要:
A multiple winding machine for winding lace bands or similar type fabric material onto cores uses a plurality of cup-like guides through which the lace bands pass. The guides are positioned horizontally and vertically with respect to each other so as to be aligned with a corresponding core onto which the lace band is wound. The guides move transversely in a back-and-forth path so that the lace bands wind on the corresponding cores in a uniform, tightly packed manner. Transfer rollers provide uniform tension to the lace bands while imparting uniform tangentional speed to the cores and lace bands as the lace bands are wound on the cores. A mechanism for determining improper removal of draw threads between adjacent lace bands is also disclosed so as to stop the machine if a faulty removal condition exists.

A method and apparatus for dealing with small areas such as defects in a web of material provide that pre-prepared marking plates with metal inserts are associated with each of the areas to be dealt with, the marking plates being joined to the web of material in such a way that the metal insert covers the area to identify same. The metal insert can be subsequently detected to permit the marked location to be removed from the web or otherwise processed.

Grooves can be detected on both sides of non-magnetic materials, preferably in terry fabric, carpets, blankets, or the like. A sensor is provided, which can be either inductive or capacitive, and is positioned on one side of the material opposite a rotatable and movable follower or finger on the other side. The finger is preferably made of ferromagnetic material and is resiliently biased towards and in contact with one surface of a material such as terry fabric. The sensor continuously monitors the distance between the finger and a reference point and generates a signal when a change in such distance occurs.

In air stream actuated web-break detectors an air-deflectable cup-like switch actuator is formed with a surrounding lip which shields the partially enclosed switch assembly from incursion of fiber and like particles otherwise tending to obstruct the switching function.
