Abstract

See full text

The toe end of a hose blank has a looper line bead and is toe closed by movement past a seamer along a seam line located by reference to the head, the blank being mounted on a toe closer carrier of conventional form. Opposed blades of the carrier execute a forward movement to pass the beaded end of the blank through a space between two open jaws of a positioning device; the jaws thereafter close and by drawing the blank backwards the bead is brought against the jaws, which are at a pre-set location relative to the seamer and the toe end is thereby positioned ready for seaming. The toe end is then conveyed to and past the seamer by a transport belt, the positioning established by the jaws being maintained during conveyance of the blank to the seamer.
