Definitions
- This invention relates to a method of and apparatus for producing a composite textile yarn.
- Worsted yarns produced by spinning alone are usually not suitable for use as warp in weaving, and it is common practice therefore to twist together two singles yarns and use the resultant twisted or, as they are sometimes known, twofold yarns for weaving.
- the opportunity is usually taken to remove faults such as slubs from the singles yarns prior to two-folding.
- a method of producing a composite textile yarn comprising the step of, whilst a roving is being passed through a drafting zone and spun into a secondary yarn, introducing a previously prepared primary yarn alongside the roving towards the end of the drafting zone and twisting the primary yarn with the secondary yarn.
- the primary yarn is spaced from the roving at the end of the drafting zone as defined by the front roller nip, and the primary yarn may be spaced laterally of the secondary yarn by between about 5/16ths and 5/32nds of an inch as they leave the front roller nip.
- the primary yarn may be of a type which could not readily be produced on a machine having a drafting system similar t.o that through which the roving is passed, and thus if the drafting zone is one suitable for worsted, the primary yarn ray, for example, be a cotton yarn.
- the reviously prepared yarn may be a filament yarn.
- apparatus for producing composite textile yarns comprising means for introducing a previously prepared primary yarn alongside a roving towards the end of a drafting zone whilst the roving is being passed through the drafting zone and spun into a secondary yarn, and means for twisting the primary yarn with the secondary yarn
- the apparatus may further comprise end break detector means mounted so as to be held in a first position by an intact primary yarn but to move under gravity on breakage of the primary yarn to a second position where it may break the secondary yarn.
- the invention provides a composite yarn produced according to any one of the aforesaid methods.
- Fig. 1 shows partially and Fig. 2 shows schematically the drafting zone to be found between a roving supply creel and the spindle of a typical worsted ring spinning frame, that is to say a frame before modification to accommodate the method of the invention.
- the drafting zone itself is defined as extending between the nips respectively of the back roller pair 1, 2 and the front roller pair 3, 4 and comprises a draft control unit 5 which has a so-called flume 6 projecting towards the nip of the front rollers.
- a single end 7 of roving which may be twisted or twistless, is fed to the back roller nip from a creel- mounted bobbin or other supply schematically represented in Fig.2 by block 8 and then passes through the draft control unit 5 and through the nip of the front rollers to an axially-rotating ring spindle schematically represented by the block 9.
- the draft control unit 5 is slowly reciprocated horizontally in order to spread the area of contact of the rollers with the roving being spun, and in particular to reduce the wear on the top front roller 4 of which the surface may be relatively soft.
- a further creel is required to be fitted to support, for each spindle 9, at least one bobbin or other package of previously spun yarn.
- the means for mounting of the bobbins are not shown and are expected to be obvious to anyone skilled in the art of spinning machine manufacture.
- one end 10 of primary yarn is taken from a bobbin schematically represented by block 11, and is passed through a tension device 12 mounted adjacent to the drafting zone and known per se. From the tension device the yarn is brought adjacent to but not in contact with the roving 7 by passing it into the draft control unit 5 through a slot 13 cut in a side wall of input guide 14, which is located to the rear of the draft control unit 5 and shown in more detail in Fig. 4.
- the flume 6 provides an exit channel for the roving as in a conventional machine but, as shown in the rear view of the draft control unit 5 in Figure 5, the draft control unit also has a guide element 15 for guiding the primary yarn against the side wall 17 of the channel as it passes out of the draft unit towards the front rollers. The thickness of the side wall 17 thus determines the critical spacing of the primary yarn from the drafted roving at the nip of the front rollers.
- the primary yarn 10 is taken to the front roller nip and thence, on a first setting up of the operation, is piecened up with the secondary yarn being spun from the roving 7 so that together they form a composite yarn 16 which is then wound on a package of conventional type mounted on the spindle 9. Thereafter, as spinning proceeds, primary yarn and roving are each continuously drawn from their respective supplies and, after the drafting of the roving, are continuously twisted together at a position slightly below the front roller nip and wound on the package.
- the direction of rotation of the spindle is expected normally to be such as to insert twist into the composite yarn in a direction opposite to that originally in the primary yarn. This arrangement appears to produce a better yarn than when the direction of rotation is such as to increase the twist in the primary yarn. It also has certain practical advantages, as will be described later.
- the primary yarn and the roving being spun shall be close together at the front roller nip, at least so as not to place undue limitation on the extent of lateral traverse of the drafting unit as mentioned above, it appears to be at least desirable and it may even prove to be essential that they emerge from the front roller nip spaced apsrt. This allows each to rotate on its own axis under the influence of the spindle, with twist being removed from the primary yarn and being inserted into the secondary yarn, before they converge. Although the twist may be substantially removed from the primary yarn it does not break since the distance of the convergence paint below the nip is very short relative to the length of the component fibres.
- the amount of twist which is removed from the primary yarn and inserted into the secondary may be varied, depending on the nominal values of the twist of the primary and composite yarns, and also on the thickness of each component at any instant.
- the effect of the individual rotation of each component prior to convergence is to bind any loose fibres on the surface of each yarn into the structure of the composite yarn which is thereby made suitable for use as, for example, a warp yarn in weaving.
- the composite yarn is different from a conventional two-fold twisted yarn, it can be considered as equivalent to such a yarn in that it comprises, in effect, a yarn spun substantially as normally from a roving combined, in a manner which involves twisting, with a previously prepared yarn.
- the appearance of the resultatnt composite yarn depends upon, among other things, the linear densities of the primary yarn and of the drafted roving, the amount and direction of twist in the primary and secondary yarns, the separation of the primary yarn from the roving at the front roller nip and the tension imparted by the tension unit J.2, as well as the composition and colour of the component yarns.
- the invention is susceptible of variations, and in particular it may be possible to introduce more than one primary yarn into a single roving.
- the or each primary yarn is expected normally to be a singles yarn but may possibly itself be a two-fold or other composite yarn.
- One advantage is that the previously prepared yarn can be cleared of slubs or other faults prior to the merging with the secondary yarn and thus there is a lower incidence of faults in the composite yarn. Moreover, such knots as need to be made following the clearing of faults in the composite yarn are found to be more secure. Again, the apparatus may have less need for an end break detector to prevent singles yarns being wound on the take-up package. If the roving breaks the twisting effect of the spindle 9 will run back solely into the primary yarn and it will normally become untwisted to a point at which the yarn will break.
- a simple nd end-break detector has been developed for this machine.
- This comprises a wire or equivalent element, pivotted below the front roller pair and having a portion capable of bearing on the rear of the primary yarn above the draft control unit.
- the arrangement is such that, in the event of the primary yarn breaking, the element swings forwardly and downwardly about its pivot to a lower position where it will brenk and singles yarn passing from the front rollers to the ring apingle.
- the system allows for the production of yarns combining types of fibre such as cotton and wool which may not effectively be spun together in one drafting system.
- the primary yarn may appear to varying degrees on the surface of the composite yarn.
- a composite yarn with those fibres on the surface may be strengthened by the use of a secondary yarn of high strength.
- a coarser fibre than normally employed for a particular yarn may be used for the roving, thereby achieving further economic advantage.
