=Young & Crippin's Cop-dyeing Machine.=--So far as simplicity of construction is concerned this lies between the two preceding machines. It consists of four parts with some accessory mechanism. There is first a dye-liquor storage tank at the base of the apparatus in which the liquor is kept stored and boiling (if necessary) ready for use, above this and at the front end is the dye-chamber, this communicates at its lower end by a pipe with the dye-liquor in the dye-vat. Then there is a large vacuum chamber, in which by means of an injector a vacuum can be formed, this directly communicates with a liquor-receiving chamber which again in turn is in communication with the upper part of the dye-chamber. The cops are placed on perforated spindles as usual, and these on a perforated plate and are kept in place by a plate which is screwed down on them. The charged cop plate is placed in the dye-chamber on which a cover is placed and screwed down. By means of a lever the injector is set at work, a vacuum created in the vacuum and receiving chambers, the consequence being that dye-liquor is drawn from the vat through the cops in the dye-chamber into the receiving chamber. When a certain quantity of liquor has passed through, by a movement of a lever, the vacuum is destroyed, and the dye-liquor runs back into the dye-vat; these operations are repeated until from past experience of the working of the machine it is thought sufficient has passed through to dye the cops, when the dye-chamber is opened and the cops taken out. This machine works very well. =Mommer's Cop-dyeing Machine.=--This is in use in several continental dye-works. The central portion of this machine is a rectangular dye-chamber, which can be hermetically closed by hinged doors, the cops are placed side by side on trays provided with perforated bottoms, the trays being placed one on the top of the other in the dye-chamber. From the top of the dye-chamber passes a pipe to a centrifugal pump, and a similar pipe passes from the bottom of the chamber to the pump. A separate vat contains the dye-liquor which is used. The pump forces the dye-liquor through the cops which take up the dye. Arrangements are provided by which the direction of the flow of the dye-liquor can be changed. This machine gives fairly good results, not perhaps equal to those with the machines previously described.
