Definitions

  • the portions of the spinner loosely fit in grooves of a fixed magnet having a polarity the same as the polarity of corresponding grooves of the fixed magnet respectively whereby due to repulsion produced between the polarities, said spinner is urged to abut said drive roller and also its rocking motion is avoided.
  • a metal plate of high permeability is provided with an airgap therebetween to increase magnetic flux density of said polarity portions.
  • One example of the conventional apparatus of this kind is such that it comprises two horseshoe-shaped magnets placed side by side and straddles the top and bottom faces of a drive roller that is driven at high speed, in front of its ends having the same polarity, a forwardly edged magnet piece is abutted thereto, the edged ends of the upper and lower abutting pieces are located slightly inside of the outer ring provided on said drive roller whereby the edges of said upper and lower magnets attract a spinner of highly permeable metal so that is presses against the drive roller.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide such driving apparatus that the spinner is urged to effect rolling contact with a drive roller by magnet force, yet said spinner is kept from rocking motion.
  • Another object of the present invention is to possibly minimize a friction loss between the spinner and its supporting member.
  • Still another object of the present invention is to increase a contact pressure between the spinner and drive roller that drives the former.
  • the feature of the present invention is such that the spinner itself is made of a strong magnetic material or a high permeability metal pipe with cylindrical magnets on its opposite ends and the midportion of the spinner is rollingly engaged with the circumferential face of the drive roller, the opposite ends of the spinner loosely fit in the grooves provided at the opposite poles of a fixed magnet and in the area of such loose fit, the arrangement of the spinner relative to the fixed magnet is such that the same polarities of the spinner and the fixed magnet face each other and by a repulsion produced therebetween the spinner is urged towards the drive roller, yet the rocking motion of the spinner is eliminated.
  • Another feature of the present invention is the provision of a highly permeable plate confronting to the poles of the fixed magnet with a slight gap therebetween to intensify a magnetic flux density in that area.
  • FIG. 1 is a longitudinal section view of the apparatus of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a fixed magnet forming a part of the apparatus.

  • 5 is a bushing surrounding the lower portion of spindle 3 and is rotatable in engagement with a high-speed belt (not shown).
  • 6 is a standard supporting spindle 3.
  • 7 is a fixed magnet having poles in the position one above and the other below the drive roller 1, each magnet end is provided with a groove 11 and 11' respectively as shown in FIG. 2. Such groove may be wide open at its outside as shown in FIG. 2A.
  • the inside of respective groove is covered with a thin film layer of nonmagnetic metal or nonmetal material so that the spinner 8 may not directly contact the pole end of the fixed magnet.
  • the magnet is made of such alloy of aluminum, nickel, cobalt or'Almico 5 having a sufficient coercive force and residual flux density.
  • 8 is a spinner having more coercive force such as Almico 8 or barium ferrite, or of alloy of copper, iron and cobalt with samarium or cerium.
  • the spinner should be made relatively smaller so that the latter needs to have more coercive force.
  • the spinner as shown in FIG. 6 comprises two cylindrical magnet portions 9 and 9 which are inserted with a loose fit in respective grooves 11 and 11' of the fixed magnet and the rest is made of high permeable metal. Said magnet portions of the spinner should be placed as to the magnetizing direction, one pole on the outer periphery and the other pole on the innner periphery of the spinner as referred to with N-S in FIGS. 5 and 6.

  • a magnet bushing hav-- ing a coercive force of He -200 oersteds is provided and its outer stator having two-phase or threephase windings to form a high-speed hysteresis synchronous motor.
  • a cage motor may be utilized for the high-speed induction motor. However, it is not preferably to provide it since there is some difficulty in balancing of the rotor and more particularly it is impossible to set the revolution at a constant ratio.
  • 21 is a bushing for a rotor magnet 22.
  • 23 is a stator core and 24 stator winding.
  • 25 is a cover of the lower end of motor.
  • 26 is a bolt for securing the cover and stator to the supporting standard 6.
  • the fixed magnet shall be made of alloy such as barium ferrite, copper, iron, cobalt with samarium or cerium to have more coercive force.
  • upper and lower magnets are provided, each one end is fixed to a member of nonmagnetic material as copper, brass and aluminum thus forming a side-down U-shape.
  • Each of the other magnet ends is provided with a vertical groove in which a spinner magnet loosely fits.
  • each of the upper and lower portions are magnetized in a vertical direction.
  • the spinner is also made of the same material as that of the fixed magnet and magnetized in a vertical direction.
  • the fixed magnet can take a sufficient area in its cross sectional area as well as its length, it provides a strong magnetic force thus its flux density is high enough while the spinner magnet should be small for high-speed rotation so that it is very difficult to have a great flux density however strong a magnet material is used. Since the repulsion between the two magnets is proportionate to the square of magnetic flux density of respective magnets in the gap therebetween, in order to increase the repulsion, the magnetic flux density should be larger.

  • numeral 29 represents a confronting plate.
  • the spinner is largely supported by magnet lines of flux in the space and there is less friction than with a bearing.
  • friction is very small (less 2gr cm)

  • This spinner is durable and can be rotated at more than 600,000 r.p.m.
  • An apparatus for driving a spindle for effecting false twist of yarns comprising a drive roller affixed to a spindle, a fixed magnet having a groove in respective poles, a cylindrical spinner having a pole on its inner periphery and the other pole on the outer periphery characterized in that the midportion of said spinner is rolled by rolling contact with the outer peripheral face of said drive roller, also the opposite ends of said spinner are inserted with a loose fit in the groove of respective poles of said fixed magnet, the respective portions of said spinner loosely fit in said groove of the fixed magnet and are arranged to have the same polarity with that in the corresponding groove of said fixed magnet.
  • each groove on the opposite ends of said fixed magnet has a thin film of nonmagnetic metal or nonmetal material covering on the groove respectively.
  • An apparatus for driving spindle for effecting false twist of yarns as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that a confronting plate of high permeability metal is provided to face the poles of said fixed magnet with a small gap therebetween.
