  • yarn breakge detection device 31 is a yarn breakge detection device disposed between the first heater device H1 and the cooling plate 8, and whether mechanical or photoelectric, various yarn breakge detection devices can be used as the yarn breakge detection device 31.
  • the yarn breakge detection device 31 detects a breakge in the yarn 3, as is shown in the block diagram in Figure 4, a yarn breakge signal is transmitted to a control section 32 incorporating a microcomputer, and the solenoid valve 29 is opened via the control section 32 to supply compressed air to the compressed air supply pipe 28 disposed above the yarn 3 being guided by the yarn guides 27.
  • a timer 33 is operated for a predetermined amount of time via the control section 32.
  • the solenoid valve 29 is closed to stop supplying compressed air to the compressed air supply pipe 28.
  • the amount of time during which compressed air is supplied to the compressed air supply pipe 28 under the control of the timer 33 may be, for example, 0.1 to 0.5 seconds.
  • the yarn 3 instantaneously separates from the yarn guides 27 due to the injection of compressed air through the air injection holes 28a and falls through the yarn insertion opening 26a of the heating space 26 due to its weight and despite the stoppage of the injection of compressed air through the air injection holes 28a.
  • the position of the yarn breakge detection device 31 is not limited to the position between the first heater device H1 and the cooling plate 8 but the yarn breakge detection device 31 may be disposed in any appropriate position. If, however, the yarn 3 is broken between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11, the broken yarn 3 located at the first feed roller 11 side will stop within the first heater device H1 and will melt and stick to the yarn guides 27.
  • the yarn breakge detection device 31 is provided between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11 so that compressed air is instantaneously injected through the air injection holes 28a to separate the yarn 3 from the yarn guides 27 if the yarn 3 is broken between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11. Even if the yarn 3 is broken at a position other than the one between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11, since the yarn 3 continues to move between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11, the second feed roller 11 allows the yarn 3 to travel continuously. As a result, operations continue thereby preventing the broken yarn 3 from stopping within the first heater device H1, so the broken yarn 3 is unlikely to be melted and stick to the yarn guides 27.
  • the yarn breakge detection device 31 is provided between the outlet of the first heater device H1 and the second feed roller 11.
  • the above embodiments have shown examples in which when the yarn 3 is broken, compressed air is injected against the yarn 3 located within the heating space 26 of the first heater device H1.
  • the compressed air supply pipes 28 with the air injection holes 28a drilled therein my be disposed near the inlet and outlet of the first heater device H1 so that compressed air is injected to separate the yarn 3 located near the inlet or outlet of the first heater device H1 to separate the yarn 3 from the yarn guides 27.
  • a plurality of heating spaces 26 are formed in the first heater device H1 and a plurality of yarns 3 are inserted and passed through the first heater H1 as in this embodiment and when one of the yarns 3 is broken and compressed air is injected against the broken yarn 3 near the inlet or outlet of the first heater device H1, the compressed air is injected against the unbroken yarn 3, thereby adversely affecting the heat treatment for the unbroken yarn 3.
  • compressed air is preferably injected against the yarn 3 located within the heating space 26 of the first heater device H1.
  • an air suction force can be used to separate the yarn 3 from the yarn guides 27.
  • a suction pipe that is open toward a yarn guide can be placed on the yarn input side of the heater body so that a signal from the yarn breakge detection device can operate the valve to instantaneously suck out the yarn retaining within the heating space.
  • the device has disposed therein the means for injecting compressed air in the direction in which the yarn 3 is separated from the yarn guides 27, the yarn 3 can be instantaneously separated from the yarn guides so as not to melt and become stick to the yarn guides 27.
  • the yarn 3 Since the yarn 3 is instantaneously separated frown the yarn guides 27 when the yarn 3 is broken, it is prevented from being melted and stick to the yarn guides 27, thereby enabling the temperature of the first heater device H1 to be arbitrarily set without the need to pay attention to the possible melting and sticking of the yarn 3 to the yarn guides 27.
  • the yarn 3 can be prevented from melting and sticking to the yarn guides 27 by using the simple system in which the yarn guides each incorporate a heating coil and which has disposed therein the means for instantaneously separating the yarn 3 from the yarn guides 27 when the yarn 3 is broken, rather than a complicated process for burning and carbonizing the melted and stuck yarn.
  • the means for injecting compressed air is disposed in the heating space 26, if the plurality of yarns 3 are inserted and passed through the first heater device H1, the unbroken yarn 3 is precluded from being adversely affected.
  • the yarn breakge detection device 31 is disposed between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11, when the yarn 3 breaks between the first feed roller 5 and the second feed roller 11, compressed air is immediately injected through the air injection holes 28a to instantaneously separate the yarn 3 from the yarn guides 27, thereby preventing the yarn 3 from melting and sticking to the yarn guides 27.
  • the present invention employs compressed air to instantaneously eject the yarn 3 from the first heater device H1.
  • the yarn guides held by the electromagnet are disposed in the first heater device, so the yarn guides are heated and the yarn 3 may be melted if it comes in contact with the yarn guides.
  • the present invention uses the simple mechanism to eject the yarn 3 from the first heater device H1, thereby requiring almost no adjustments or maintenance for the ejection mechanism and requiring only low-cost maintenance.
  • the present invention Compared to the method in which the broken yarn is drawn out out of the first heater device by releasing the holding effect of the electromagnet when the yarn is broken, as described above, requires the yarn guides to be recovered after the ejection of the yarn from the first heater device.
  • the present invention employs compressed air, thereby eliminating the need for the recovery operation and thus it has no mechanism for this operation enabling the structure to be simplified and time to be saved, thereby improving the working efficiency.
  • the present invention employs compressed air and only requires power consumption for a short time and only if the yarn is broken, thereby saving energy. Compressed air may be stored as the air used in a false twister to thread the yarn, and no new compressed air source need be installed, thereby contributing to energy saving.
  • the present invention has disposed therein a means operating when a yarn is broken to inject compressed air in the direction in which the yarn is separated from the yarn guides.
  • a means operating when a yarn is broken to inject compressed air in the direction in which the yarn is separated from the yarn guides.
  • the means for injecting compressed air is disposed in the heating space, if the plurality of yarns are inserted and passed through the first heater device, compressed air is precluded from being injected against the unbroken yarn, thereby preventing the heat treatment of the unbroken yarn from being adversely affected.
  • the means for injecting compressed air is disposed between the first and second feed rollers, the broken yarn can be prevented from melting and sticking to the yarn guides.
