Definitions

  • the present invention concerns machines acting on continuously running textile yarns, and has for its object the provision of a facility for enabling full bobbins in such machines to be exchanged for empty ones without arresting the motion of the machine.
  • the invention is more particularly concerned, though not essentially so, with a machine which acts on a continuously running yarn composed of thermoplastic continuous filaments.
  • a machine which acts on a continuously running yarn composed of thermoplastic continuous filaments.
  • Such a machine may, for example, extend the yarn, or allow it to contract whilst heated; alternatively the machine may apply a false twist crimp to the yarn whilst it is passing through a heated chamber.
  • the invention therefore, provides means for continuously removing the yarn being fed to a full take-up package whilst the latter is being changed.
  • a suction device in a machine handling continuously running textile yards, is disposed in the vicinity of the path of one or more yarns in its movement towards a take-up package, such suction device having an inlet hole adjacent the path of each yarn and leading to a receiving device for yarn drawn into the hole by the suction device, whereby, if a yarn is severed at or beyond the suction device the free end of the yarn being fed is removed through the hole and the yarn is continuously drawn into the receiving device as it is fed.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic layout of the various machine parts acting on a single yarn
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an end part of the suction tube used for removing the yarn.
  • FIG. 3 is an elevational view of the suction device of the machine showing part of the length of the tube extending across a plurality of yarns being treated by the machine.
  • FIG. 1 shows the parts acting on a single yarn
  • the full machine comprises a large number of sets of such parts arranged side by side across the width of the machine.
  • Each set of parts is suitably mounted on the frame of the machine and comprises a supply package 11 from which a yarn 12 is drawn through a pigtail guide 13 by feed rollers 14 and extends through a heating device 15, a false twist device 16, further rollers 17, and passes over a suction tube 18 and through a further pigtail guide 19 to a take-up package 20.
  • All of these parts except the tube 13 are of conventional form and will not be described in detail either as to construction or operation.
  • the tube 18 as willbe seen from FIGS. 2 and 3, has holes 22 at intervals corresponding to the spacing of the individual yarn paths across the machine and carries an equal number of sleeves 21 which are slidable to cover and uncover the holes 22.
  • the tube 18 is attached at one end to an air-exhausting device comprising a container 25 housing a suction fan comprising a motor 24 and blades 23. Between the fan and the tube 18 is disposed a filter 26 which serves to prevent yarn drawn into the tube 18 from entering the part of the container housing the fan motor and blades.
  • the operator opens the hole in the tube at a position corresponding to the yarn to be acted upon. The operator then cuts the yarn below the take-up package and quickly inserts the yarn end in the opened hole. The reduced pressure in the tube causes a rapid influx of air through the hole sufficient to pull the yarn along the tube and against the filter where it is stopped and accumulates. Thereafter the operator removes the full package, replaces it with an empty support, causes the empty support to rotate and then with a rapid movement cuts the yarn entering the hole in the tube and applies the cut end to the rotating surface of the support. Finally, the operator closes the hole in the tube.
  • this black layer can be obviated or reduced by the provision at the top of the heated zone of a suction tube 30 connected to the fan container 25, this tube being employed to remove fumes continuously from the upper end of the heater.
  • the several tubes 30 lead to a common header 31 which is connected by way of the tube '32 to the fan container 25.
  • the total quantity of air employed for this purpose need be relatively small, but the advantage of the removal of the fumes is appreciable.
  • suction means disposed in the vicinity of the path of a yarn in its movement through the machine towards the take-up package, such suction means comprising a suction tube having an inlet hole therein adjacent the path of said yarn, a yarn receiving container connected to the suction end of said tube and a suction source connected to exhaust said container whereby, if the yarn is severed beyond a point corresponding to said hole toward the take-up package, the free end of the yarn being fed is drawn into the hole and the yarn is continuously drawn into said container as it is fed, and means cooperating with said suction tube for optionally closing said inlet hole thereof.
  • suction means disposed in the vicinity of the paths of said yarns in their movement towards the takeup packages, such suction means comprising a suction tube extending transversely of said paths and having a plurality of inlet holes therein spaced along its length at intervals corresponding to the spacing between adjacent yarn paths and a yarn receiving container connected to the suction end of said tube and a suction source connected to exhaust said container, whereby if any one of said yarns is serevered at a point beyond the hole in said tube corresponding to such yarn, the free end of the yarn being fed is drawn into the hole and the yarn is continuously drawn into said container as it is fed, and means cooperating with Said inlet holes of said suction tube for optionally closing said inlet holes.
  • suction means disposed in the vicinity of said take-up packages and comprising a suction tube extending transversely of the paths of the yarns in their movement towards said take-up packages, said tube having inlet holes spaced at intervals along its length corresponding to the spacing between the paths of adjacent yarns so that each yarn path lies over a hole in said tube, a yarn receiving container connected to the suction end of said tube, a suction fan mounted in said container, and filter means disposed between said fan and said tube, whereby if any one of said yarns is severed at a point beyond the hole in said tube corresponding to such yarn the free end of the yarn being fed is drawn into the hole and the yarn is continuously drawn into said container as it is fed, and means cooperating with said inlet holes of said suction tube for optionally closing said inlet holes.
  • said means cooperating with said inlet holes includes a plurality of sleeves slidably arranged on said tube, one such sleeve for each hole in the tube, each said sleeve being displaceable to cover and uncover its corresponding hole.
  • heat treating means for each yarn suction means disposed between said heat treating means and said take-up packages and comprising a first suction tube extending transversely of the paths of the yarns in their movement towards said take-up packages, said tube having inlet holes spaced at intervals along its length corresponding to the spacing between the paths of adjacent yarns so that each yarn path lies over a hole in said hube, a yarn receiving container connected to the suction end of said tube, a suction fan mounted in said container and filter means disposed between said fan and said tube, whereby if any one of said yarns is severed at a point beyond the hole in said tube corresponding to such yarn the free end of the yarn being fed is drawn into the hole and the yarn is continuously drawn into said container as it is fed and a second suction tube connected at one end to said heat treating means and at the other end to said container and serving to exhaust fumes from said heat treating means.
  • said first tube has a plurality of sleeves slidably arranged thereon, one such sleeve for each hole in the tube, each said sleeve being displaceable to cover and uncover its corresponding hole.
