FLIER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 694,884, dated March 4, 1902.

Application filed April 30. 1901.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JoHNJ. MoOsKnR, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Woonsocket, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented a new and Improved Flier, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

This invention relates to certain novel features of construction by which a filer maybe constructed t-o work eiectively and rapidly and at the same time be produced at less cost than those at presentemployed.

This specification is a specific description of one form of the invention, while the claims are denitions of the actual scope thereof.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forminga part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both views.

- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the invention, and Fig. 2 is a detail View showing the manner of mounting the presser-foot sleeve.

a and b represent the arms of the iier, which are mounted to rotate in the usual manner. The arm b carries the yarn, and it is provided at its upper portion with a plate around the same and passed along the upper end of the arm b to and through the eye c' in the plate c and thence along the inner side of said plate through the notch @2in its bottom.

d indicates the presser-linger, which has the usual eye d' in its outer end, through which the thread is led. This iinger d is carried on a sleeve e, which is held on the reduced lower end of the arm b by a pin b', which works in a slot e' in the sleeve e.` This allows the sleeve to rock slightly on the arm; but it holds the sleeve from longitudinal movement. Carried by the sleeve e isa tension-bar f, which has its end portions separated from the sleeve and is joined to the sleeve at a point intermediate the ends. The yarn is led from the slot or notch c2 of the plate c downward partly around the arm b and between said arm and the upper end ot the tension-bar f.. It is then passed down alongside of this bar and between the lower end of the tension-bar and the lower end of the sleeve e, after which Serial Ne. 58 ,111. (No model.)

itis wound around the presser-linger and led through the eye d in the usual manner.

The'ier thus arranged is much easier and to wind the yarn rapidly and perfectly.

Having thus described my invention, l

claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A iiier, having an arm, a plate secured thereto and provided with an eye atits upper end and a notch vor slot at its lower end, a presser-linger sleeve mounted on the arm, and a tension-bar carried by said sleeve and engaging the yarn at its end portions.

2. A liier having an arm, a plate fastened at one edge thereto and having an eye at its upper end, anda notch at its lower end for guiding the yarn, and a presser-finger ar-` ranged on the arm and having the thread lead thereto from the plate.

3. A liier having an arm, a presser-finger carried thereby, means carried on the exte rior of the arm for guiding the thread, and a tension-bar from which the thread passes to the presser-finger.

4. A hier having an arm, a presser-iinger sleeve mounted thereon, and a tension-bar held by the sleeve and having its end portions separated therefrom, for thel purpose specified.

5. A dier having an arm, a presser-nger, a sleeve carrying the presser-finger and mounted to have a limited rocking movement on the arm, and a tension-bar carried by the sleeve and having its end portions separated therefrom, for the purpose specilied.

6.KA flier having a solid arm, a plate secured to said arm and having means at its'ends for guiding the yarn, a presser-iinger sleeve mountedjon the arm and havinga slot thereiu,a pin held by the arm and tting in the slot 'to limit the rocking movement of the sleeve,

a presser-iingcr carried by said sleeve, and a tension-bar connected between its ends to the sleeve.

VIn testimony whereof I have signed my nameto this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
