Description
- The present invention relates to a device for producing a yarn from a fiber. Specifically, it relates to such a device having a pair of rollers on which the opened fibers are condensed and twisted to form the yarn based on a so-called "friction spinning" system.
- One such device is disclosed in Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 52-33697 (kokoku), comprising a pair of perforated rollers disposed closely to each other to form a spinning zone on the upper surfaces of the rollers in the vicinity of the confronting surfaces thereof, each roller rotating in the same direction as the other. A suction mouth is provided inside of each roller to cover the spinning zone, whereby air transporting a fiber onto the roller surface can pass through a perforation of the roller, permitting the fiber to be deposited and condensed on the spinning zone to form a fiber bundle. The fiber bundle is then continuously withdrawn from the spinning zone while being rotated about its own axis due to the same directional rotation of the two rollers, thereby being twisted to form a yarn. Since the above device has the suction means inside of the perforated rollers, the structure of the rollers is complicated and, in order to obtain accurate relative rotations between the two rollers, the manufacturing accuracy of every part thereof must be at a high level, which causes high manufacturing costs. Moreover, due to air intermittently sucked into the perforation of the rotating roller, an irritating shrill high frequency noise occurs during operation. In addition, due to the perforated structure of the roller, the fiber tends to enter therein accompanied by sucked air and is nipped between the rotating inner surface of the roller and the fixed suction mouth, which results in breakage of the fiber and an increase of fluff in the resultant yarn. If the fiber forms a bridge having both ends thereof entrapped in the different perforations disposed, respectively, on the different rollers, each end of the fiber is drawn in a direction opposite to the other during the rotation of the rollers, causing a disturbance in the fiber orientation in the fiber bundle, which, in turn, deteriorates the yarn quality.
- As an improvement of the above device, a means was proposed by Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 56-52134 (kokoku), comprising a combination of a perforated roller and a smooth roller. The two rollers are arranged in the same manner as the above case. In this arrangement, however, formation of the bridge fiber can be avoided because the fiber is positively held only on the surface of the perforated roller, but the remaining drawbacks inherent to the prior art still remain unsolved.
- To simplify the structure, a further device is disclosed in Japanese Examined Patent Publication (kokoku) No. 55-23929 (corresponding to AT-A-338 666), in which air transporting a fiber is sucked through a gap between two rollers into a wide-mouthed opening provided in the opposite side of the gap, whlie the fiber is deposited on the surface of the rollers which may be smooth or perforated. When a thin yarn is spun in this device, since the gap between the rollers must be narrow corresponding to the thickness of the yarn, all the air supplied to the surface of the rollers cannot pass through the gap and a vortex is generated in the spinning zone on the roller surface, which prevents the fiber from being smoothly deposited in the spinning zone. This phenomena is further stressed when the deposited fiber gradually blocks the gap, whereby the entanglement of the each fiber in the fiber bundle becomes poor. Especially, according to an experiment by the present inventors, in the case of the smooth roller, it was impossible to form a fiber bundle in the spinning zone or to withdraw the former continuously threfrom even if it has been formed.
- It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a device of the above mentioned type free from the drawbacks inherent to the prior art.
- It is another object of the present invention to improve the prior art device so that the fiber can be separated from air transporting the same and be smoothly deposited on the spinning zone of the rollers as a fiber bundle to enhance the subsequent condensing and withdrawing operations of the fiber bundle.
- It is further object of the present invention to provide such an improvement of the prior art device as to minimize noise during the operation and to prevent the breakage of the fiber in spite of a simplified, low cost structure.
- Thus, the above object are achievable by a device, according to the present invention, for producing a yarn from a fiber, comprising a pair of rollers rotatable in the same direction and arranged in a manner confronting each other with a small gap between peripheral surfaces thereof, a spinning zone formed on the upper surfaces of the twisting rollers in the vicinity of confronting portions of the rollers for condensing a fiber to form a fiber bundle, at least one of the rollers being provided with a plurality of grooves on at least one part of the peripheral surface thereof; a first duct for supplying an opened fiber, provided with an outlet opening disposed closely above the spinning zone; a second duct for sucking air, provided with an inlet opening disposed to confront the outlet opening of the first duct and intervened by the spinning zone so that the air is sucked from the spinning zone through a channel formed by the grooves; and means for withdrawing the fiber bundle from the spinning zone in the direction substantially along the axis of the twisting rollers to form a yarn.
- The grooves preferably may be provided only on one of the twisting rollers, which roller rotates in a direction such that the surface thereof passes through the spinning zone just before entering the gap between the pair of twisting rollers. The grooves preferably may be in parallel to each other and perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the twisting rollers.
- Alternatively, the grooves preferably may be formed of at least one spiral.
- The grooves preferably may be provided on part of the surface of at least one of the twisting rollers, which part is disposed at a distance farther than that of the remaining part of the surface of the spinning zone from the withdrawing means.
- The other objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings: wherein
- Figure 1 illustrates a diagrammatic plan view of a main part of an embodiment according to the present invention;
- Figure 2 illustrates a section taken along 11-11 line of Figure 1;
- Figure 3 illustrates a section taken along III-III line of Figure 2;
- Figure 4 illustrates an enlarged view of a part of Figure 1;
- Figures 5 and 6 are enlarged views of part of the twisting rollers, respectively, illustrating the formation of a fiber bundle; and
- Figures 7 through 9 illustrate, respectively, different forms of grooves on the twisting rollers.
- In this specification, a "fiber" stands for a natural or synthetic fiber having a limited length, including cotton fiber, polyester fiber or other.
- A device according to an embodiment of the present invention shown in Figures 1 through 3, comprises a pair of
twisting rollers first duct 11, andsecond duct 15. Thetwisting rollers spinning zone 12 having a valley shape is formed on the upper surface of the tworollers Shafts 1 a and 2a of both rollers are rotatably supported byball bearings machine frame 3. Thefirst duct 11 is disposed above thespinning zone 12 for supplying an opened fiber Yo thereto. Thesecond duct 15 is disposed just beneath the gap G for withdrawing air transporting the fiber through thespinning zone 12. - The above gap G between the
rollers twisting roller - The two
rollers pulleys 6 and 7 secured to ends of theshafts 1a and 2a, respectively, and abelt 8 commonly engaged around thepulleys 6 and 7. - One of the
twisting rollers roller 1 shown at the upper side of Figure 1 in this embodiment, has a plurality ofperipheral grooves 9 arranged in parallel to each other and perpendcular to an axis of the roller on substantially the entire outer surface thereof. Though thegrooves 9 are equidistantly arranged, as shown in Figure 4, they may be provided at different intervals from each other and also the width and profile of thegroove 9 may be varied. As stated later, the size of the groove profile and the number thereof should be decided in such a manner that air transporting the fiber Yo through thefirst duct 11 onto thespinning zone 12 in a valley form can pass through achannel 9a formed in thespinning zone 12 by an inner wall of thegroove 9 and the surface portion of theother roller 2 confronting thegroove 9, allowing only the staple fiber Yo to leave in thespinning zone 12. Preferable dimensions of the grooves are, for example, a pitch of 2 mm, a width of 1 mm, and a depth of 0.5 mm. Though thegroove 9 completely encircles theroller 1 in this embodiment, it may be intermitted, for example, by embedding part of the continuous groove or by randomly arranging a plurality of channel lengths on the surface of the roller, provided the intermitted portions are not aligned with those of the adjacent grooves. - The rotational direction of the
rollers roller 1 provided with thegrooves 9 enters the gap G from the top and is directed to asuction mouth 19 of thesecond duct 15, described in more detail later, and conversely, the surface of theother roller 2 enters the gap G from below, away from thesuction mouth 19. - The
roller 1 is preferably made of a metal and theroller 2 is preferably wrapped with a synthetic rubber sheath, although the materials thereof are not necessarily restricted thereto. - The
first duct 11 has a triangular profile and is connected by a narrow base portion to known means for opening the fiber, such as acombing roller 10, and confronts thespinning zone 12 with awide mouth portion 14, as illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, whereby an individually separated fiber can be fed to the valley of thespinning zone 12. Lower ends ofside walls 11 a of themouth portion 14 are positioned closely to the upper surfaces of therollers back wall 11 b is provided with aplate member 13 in a shape of triangle complementary to a profile of thespinning zone 12 for preventing extrication of the fiber from thespinning zone 12. - The
second duct 15 comprises asuction body 16 secured to themachine frame 3 and a plurality ofshield plates suction body 16. The upper ends of theshield plates rollers spinning zone 12. Thesuction body 16 has amouth portion 19 widening toward the end and communicating to a suction source (not shown) via anorifice 20, anaperture 21 bored through themachine frame 3, and apipe 22. - One end of the
spinning zone 12 opposite to the plate member 13 (the left side in Figure 2) opens for withdrawing a fiber bundle Y1 formed on thespinning zone 12 as a yarn Y from the latter by a withdrawingmeans 24 comprising a pair ofdelivery rollers twisting rollers delivery rollers - The operation of the above device is as follows:
- Prior to feeding the fiber, the
twisting rollers mouth portion 19 of thesecond duct 15. Thereafter, the separated fiber Yo is transported from thecombing roller 10 into thefirst duct 11 together with air. The air is sucked through thechannel 9a formed by theparallel grooves 9 of theroller 1 into thesecond duct 15 and, accompanying this, the fiber Yo is transferred on thespinning zone 12, namely the upper surface of therollers first duct 11 can be properly controlled by the profile of theduct 11 and a flow rate of the air so that the fiber finally lies substantially in parallel to the axis of therollers zone 12 as the fiber rotates while keeping the parallel state to the rollers and is left there while separated from the air. According to the continuous feed of the fiber Yo from thefirst duct 11, the fiber Yo is gradually deposited on thespinning zone 12 and forms a fiber bundle Y1 which is further brought into the bottom of the spinningzone 12 by the air passing thereby through thechannel 9a. The fiber bundle Y1 is pressed onto the surfaces of therollers rollers zone 12 through the opening provided at one side of the spinningzone 12 and entangled with the fiber bundle Yi. Then, the seed yarn is withdrawn therefrom through the opening by means of thedelivery rollers rollers - According to the above device, since the fiber bundle Y1 is brought deeper into the spinning
zone 12 due to air passing through thechannel 9a formed of theparallel grooves 9 so that the fiber bundle Y1 is assuredly held in thespinning zone 12, unavailing twists caused by flotation of the fiber bundle Y1 from the spinningzone 12 can be avoided, whereby an effective twisting is attained. Elimination of the perforation on the twisting rollers usually provided in the case of the prior art solves the problem of fiber entrapped in the perforation and decreases the breakage thereof, thereby improving the yarn quality. Further, since the shrill noise caused by the air intermittenly sucked in the perforation is eliminated, the total noise during the operation can be minimized. - In Figure 7, a second embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the
grooves 9e formed of a plurality of spirals are provided only on the right side part of the peripheral surface of the twisting roller 1e. Thespiral groove 9e is preferably inclined in such a manner that the air flow directed opposite to the yarn withdrawal direction generates in the valley between the rollers due to rotation of the latter, because the parallelism of the fibers supplied in the spinning zone is improved. In this embodiment, the surface portions of the two rollers without thegrooves 9e are substantially in contact with each other, whereby the air flow can be shut in this portion and formation of the fiber bundle is carried out only in the other portion where thegrooves 9e are provided. The spiral grooves may be replaced by the parallel ones as in the first embodiment shown in Figure 1 through 6. - Figure 8 illustrates a third embodiment of the present invention, in which both twisting
rollers - Figure 9 illustrates a fourth embodiment of the present invention, in which spiral grooves 9g1 and 9g2 which intersect each other are provided on the entire peripheral surface of one twisting roller lg.
- According to another modification of the present invention, the twisting rollers may be tapered so that a peripheral speed of the withdrawal side of the rollers is larger than that of the other side. As a further modification, the feeding direction of the staple fiber may be altered as desired.
