Definitions

  • This invention relates to the production of multi-coloured cotton wool products, for example cotton wool balls, cosmetic pads, and cotton wool pleats.
  • a primary effect of the current invention is to produce cotton wool products in which there is a gradual change of colours.
  • cotton wool pads this will result in a pack in which there is a gradual change in colour from the first pad in a packet to the final one.
  • sequence of colours and number of pads can be changed electronically, so that a very wide variation of colours and numbers can be produced.
  • the current invention can also produce graduated colour changes in the carded web fed to cotton wool ball or pleats and roll lines.
  • the single packet of pleats or rolls would have graduated colour bands across the width of the wadding, which could be produced from a single card followed by a continuous lapper or layering machine.
  • the longitudinal coloured bands in cotton wool rolls and pleats are produced from a range of several cards.
  • a single line would be able to produce a mixed bag of cotton wool balls some of which would have a blend of two colours.
  • laps of different colours are broken into discrete lengths, and the discrete lengths are arranged end to end for feeding to a conventional cotton carding machine.
  • the carding drum of the machine rotates it blends the fibres of differing colour together.
  • the effect of this is to blur the transition from one colour to another.
  • the desired blurring can be relatively quick or relatively slow, and by coordinating this characteristic with a suitable choice of lengths of lap supplied to the carding machine the desired transition from one colour to another can readily be accomplished.
  • a carding machine 1 of substantially conventional design is fed with a continuous lap from a conveyor 2.
  • the lap presented to the carding machine is assembled from a multiplicity of discrete lengths of lap of different colours fed onto the conveyor end-to-end from separate unwinding stations 3,4,5.
  • Each unwinding station comprises conventional unwinding apparatus furnished with a pair of breaker rollers 6.
  • Operation of the various components is controlled such that portions of lap from the various unwinding stations 3,4,5 are deposited on the conveyor in an end to end sequence.
  • the entire sequence is under program control to provide a desired and repeatable sequence of broken lap portions on the conveyor.
  • the resultant continuous lap when applied to the carding machine 1 will be carded in a manner which blurs the transition from one colour to another.
  • the carding machine may have stationary flat or a roller and clearer as indicated by reference numeral 1a.
  • the surface of the licker-in 1b rotates clockwise at, for example, about 250m/min it draws fibres from the lap of an area weight of around 644 gsm, which is fed in at a rate around 0.55m min.
  • the fibres are then transferred to the wire on the cylinder running at a much greater surface speed, e.g. around 500m/min.
  • the fibres are carded between the wire on the flats and that on the cylinder.
  • roller and clearer cards which give better blending, the fibre is transferred from the cylinder then to the roller, then to the clearer and back onto the card.
  • the fibre is finally removed from the cylinder onto the doffer (not shown) and from the doffer by roller or reciprocating comb.
  • the final web speed is typically about 25m/min and at an area weight of 13-15 gsm.
  • cross, continuous or drum lappers can be used to give further variation in the mixing or blending of coloured fibres. In this way different blending patterns and mixing effects can be obtained.
  • the carded fibres removed from the carding machine can then be applied to conventional forming machinery, for example a cotton wool ball forming machine, or lapping or layering machines for producing pleats or other cotton wool products.
  • conventional forming machinery for example a cotton wool ball forming machine, or lapping or layering machines for producing pleats or other cotton wool products.
  • the above described embodiment of the invention not only eliminates the problem of sudden changes of colour as outlined above, but enables improved production since the carding machine and post-carding formation apparatus may be run continuously thereby reducing the labour normally associated with the intermittent changing of colour to produce the desired mixed colours in the final product.
