ed both to the crimper rollsand the cloth feed rolls, and the speed of one will be invariable withrespect to the speed of the other. In the connections, however, bywhich the common actuator is driven the shifting of the sprocket-chain 45 affords a speed adjustment whereby the speed of the commonactuator 29 may be varied with respect to the speed of the other partsof the machine. The belt 38 can be taken up and tightened by turning the hand-wheels 80, which are screw-threaded to the rods 81, that engage,respectively, with the swing-arms 82, which are loosely mounted onshaft 36 and carry on their free ends the idlers 43. The broken line d indicates the cloth being treated. In leavingthe napping-rolls it passes under a roll 55, fast to the two idlers 39, 39,and turned with them at the same surface speed as the surface speed 362 KNIT GOODS FINISHING 67 of the crimper rolls h by the power of belts 38, 38.

The chain 90 is heldtaut by the idler 91 and drives the shaft 93, to which the feed roll 57is fixed. Thence the driving power is transmitted through chain 92to shaft 94, on which feed-roll 59 is fixed. Thence the driving poweris applied to vibrating the folder 59 through the wheel 59^ and con-necting-rod 59°. The cloth enters the machine under the bar 83 and over theadjustable tension-bar 84, the adjustment of which is controlled bysegment 85, catch 86, and hand lever 87, at the end of the bar 83.Thence it proceeds under idler 88, over the tension roll 60, underand around idler 89, directly in front of the napping cylinder. Theidlers 88, 89, and the tension-roll 60 are mounted in brackets 90,which are fastened to brackets 41 and 41^, extending across betweenthe girders 2 and 2. The
