Abstract
An end catcher for a one-way cloth-laying machine having a protruding cutter box assembly, including an actuator rod adapter mounted on the cloth-laying machine, an end catcher assembly including a base secured to a cloth-laying table, first and second frame sides mounted for linear horizontal movement on the base by means of first roller assemblies secured to the base and received in horizontal slots in the frame sides, an end catcher bar mounted on second roller assemblies received in vertical slots in the first and second frame sides, and cams attached to the end catcher bar for engagement by the actuating rod so as to cause the second roller assemblies and the end catcher bar attached thereto to be lifted relative to the first and second frame sides, while the first roller assemblies in the horizontal slots permit the frame sides to move in a direction away from the machine to thereby provide clearance for the cutter box assembly on the machine.
