Patent number: 6186666Abstract: A ring spindle assembly and process for re-lubricating a ring spindle having a vertically arranged bearing housing with a closed bottom. A step bearing is arranged in an oil-bath of the bearing housing for a rotating shaft. In the bearing housing, at least two lubricating channels are provided above the desired oil level of the oil-bath. When the shaft remains in the bearing housing, oil is filled into one lubricating channel until oil comes out of the other lubricating channel. A certain amount of oil is subsequently sucked out through the lubricating channel, so that the oil reaches the desired level.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 1999Date of Patent: February 13, 2001Assignee: Novibra GmbHInventor: Gerd Stahlecker

Patent number: 5911674Abstract: In the case of a spindle for spinning or twisting machines, two housings, separated by an annular gap, are provided, namely an outer housing, secured to a spindle rail, and an inner housing which takes up the neck bearing and the step bearing for the shaft by means of supporting parts. The inner housing is connected to a supporting portion by a flexible joining piece, which supporting portion is adjustable and clampable onto the bottom surface of the outer housing. The bottom surface takes at least approximately the shape of a ball cup, whose center point is at most 30 mm away from the upper edge of the outer housing in vertical direction.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 1996Date of Patent: June 15, 1999Assignee: Novibra GmbHInventors: Gerd Stahlecker, Hans Braxmeier

Patent number: 5528892Abstract: A spindle shaft is flexurally elastic at its shank part mounted in a bearing sleeve. The spindle shaft carries a belt-engaging wharve which is arranged underneath the neck bearing and to which a drive belt engages to rotate the spindle shaft. The bearing sleeve is arranged to have radial play within a spindle housing 10. The bearing sleeve is fastened at its lower end via a flexurally elastic tilting joint 40 to the spindle housing 10 connected rigidly to the spindle rail. The pulling force of the drive belt engaged to the wharve during operation deflects the bearing sleeve radially by tilting it about the tilting joint. Such deflection brings about, on the other hand, a pivoting of the bobbin-carrying upper part of the spindle shaft about the neck bearing in the opposite direction as a result of the bending moment occurring on the shank part, an inclination of the spindle shaft with its upper part is thus avoided.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 1994Date of Patent: June 25, 1996Assignee: Gebruder Loepfe AGInventors: Thomas Pesek, Helmut Speiser, Kurt Janser, Hans-Peter Forstner, Gunter Durr

Patent number: 5201170Abstract: In the case of a spinning or twisting spindle having a spindle shaft which is disposed in a spindle bearing housing by means of a bolster and a step bearing, it is provided that the spindle bearing housing is surrounded by a sleeve-type housing which is connected with the bottom of the spindle bearing housing by way of an elastic connecting element which forms a point of discontinuity for the flow of structure-borne sound. In addition, it is provided that the space between the spindle bearing housing and the outer housing is filled with a viscous medium up to at least two-thirds of the height of the spindle bearing housing.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 1992Date of Patent: April 13, 1993Assignees: Fritz Stahlecker, Hans StahleckerInventors: Gerd Stahlecker, Hans Braxmeier

Patent number: 5092115Abstract: For a spinning or twisting spindle, a holding device is provided which comprises a pin made of a spinning-elastic material which is an extension of the spindle bearing housing, the cross-section of the pin being smaller than the cross-section of the spindle bearing housing and the pin forming a point of discontinuity.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 1990Date of Patent: March 3, 1992Assignee: Fritz & Hans StahleckerInventors: Gerd Stahlecker, Hans Braxmeier

Patent number: 4796419Abstract: A bearing assembly for a spinning or twisting spindle shaft is provided which includes at least one support bearing device for supporting a shaft. A lubricant feeding and discharging duct member is provided for feeding and discharging lubricant to and from the support bearing device. The lubricant feeding and discharging duct member includes an outlet discharging member for discharging lubricant out of a bearing housing.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 1987Date of Patent: January 10, 1989Assignee: Novibra GmbHInventor: Hans Braxmeier

Patent number: 4731985Abstract: A device for supporting the spindles of textile machines, in which a spindle support cartridge is radially held by means of a double system of elastically-yielding thrust members, disposed inside an outer casing for the cartridge, and radially acting on the cartridge itself.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 1986Date of Patent: March 22, 1988Inventor: Carlo Menegatto
