Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Fixieren wie auch Breitenfixieren von schlauchförmiger Ware durch gezieltes Ausbreiten des Schlauches und nachfolgendes Heißbehandeln mit einem Dampfluftgemisch.The invention relates to a method for fixing as well as width fixing of tubular goods by targeted spreading of the hose and subsequent Heat treatment with a steam-air mixture.
Zur Faserfixierung einer bahnförmigen Ware, in der also künstliche Fasern zumindest teilweise eingearbeitet sind, ist durch die DE-A-16 35 339 die unter Saugzug stehende Siebtrommelvorrichtung bekannt, der die bahnförmige Ware mittels eines unmittelbar vorgeschalteten Spannrahmens ausgebreitet zugeführt und innerhalb der Vorrichtung an die Siebtrommel abgegeben wird. Auf diese Weise können nur flächenförmige Warenbahnen behandelt werden.For the fiber fixation of a web-shaped product, at least in the artificial fibers are partially incorporated, is by DE-A-16 35 339 under suction Screening drum device is known, the web-shaped goods by means of a direct upstream stenter fed and spread within the device is delivered to the screening drum. In this way, only sheet-like Goods webs are treated.
Schlauchförmige Waren dagegen müssen weniger für eine Faserfixierung wärmebehandelt werden, sondern eher für eine Relaxierung, Stabilisierung der Maschenstruktur. Die zu einem gewirkten oder gestrickten Schlauch verwendeten Garne erleiden beim Herstellungsvorgang des Schlauches erhebliche Reibungen, die Spannungen im Gewirke entstehen lassen. Es ist deshalb üblich, einen solchen Schlauch zu dämpfen, und zwar mit Sattdampf also bei etwa 100 °C. Ein Verfahren dieser Art ist durch die DE-A-28 29 008 bekannt. Durch das Dämpfen wird der Schlauch in dem durch einen Breithalter aufgeweiteten Zustand gehalten. Im Anschluss an das Dämpfen wird der Schlauch durch einen Kalander gefahren, um eine endgültige Stabilisation des ausgebreiteten Zustandes zu erzielen. Eine bleibende Kantenmarkierung ist beim Kalandrieren nicht zu vermeiden.Tubular goods, on the other hand, need less for fiber fixation be heat treated, but rather for relaxation, stabilization of the Mesh structure. The used for a knitted or knitted tube Yarns experience considerable friction during the manufacture of the hose, which Let tension arise in the knitted fabric. It is therefore common to have one Steam hose, with saturated steam at about 100 ° C. A procedure this type is known from DE-A-28 29 008. By steaming the Hose held in the expanded condition by a spreader. in the After steaming, the tube is passed through a calender to a to achieve final stabilization of the spread state. A permanent one Edge marking cannot be avoided when calendering.
Ein ähnliches Behandeln von Schlauchware ist durch die US-A-3 585 696 bekannt, nach der der in einem Sumpf erzeugte Sattdampf durch die zwischen zwei Endlosbändern gehaltene Schlauchware geführt und oben abgesaugt wird. Die schlauchförmige Ware wird dem Dämpfer über einen Breithalter zugeführt, der mit Abstand zum Dämpfer angeordnet ist und lediglich den Schlauch vordehnt. Der Dehnzustand verbleibt jedenfalls bei elastischer Ware bei der Übergabe in den Dämpfer nicht erhalten.A similar treatment of tubular goods is known from US-A-3 585 696, after which the saturated steam generated in a sump by the between two Tubular goods held in endless belts and suctioned off at the top. The tubular goods are fed to the damper via a spreader that works with Distance to the damper is arranged and only pre-stretches the hose. The In any case, the elastic state remains in the case of elastic goods when they are handed over to the Damper not received.
Durch die DE-A-16 35 348 ist weiterhin bekannt, über die Länge des Behandlungsvorgangs eine gewirkte Schlauchware über mehrere hintereinander angeordnete Breithalter zu bewegen und dabei den Dampf oder ein Dampf-Luftgemisch abwechselnd durch den aufgeblasenen Schlauch von innen nach außen und dann quer hindurch zu blasen. Abgesehen von dieser sehr aufwendigen und damit teuren Behandlung gewährleistet sie letztendlich auch keinen kantenmarkierungsfreien Ausfall der Schlauchware, da die Behandlung über die ganze Behandlung hinweg über Breithalter geführt wird. Die in der Behandlungskammer befindlichen Breithalter und sonstige dort offenbarte Vorrichtungsteile werden im Laufe der Behandlung heiß und führen über die Länge der Behandlung zu nicht mehr reversiblen Markierungen. In der gleichen Schrift wird auch vorgeschlagen, nur einen dieser die Warenbahn aufblasenden Breithalter zu verwenden, von dem die ausgebreitete und vorgedämpfte Ware zunächst auf ein Endlosband abgelegt wird, das die Ware dann in eine lediglich trocknende Siebtrommelvorrichtung transportiert. Dieses Verfahren gewährleistet allein wegen des zwischengeschalteten Endlosbandes keine auf eine gewünschte Breite fixierte Schlauchware.From DE-A-16 35 348 is also known over the length of the Treatment process a knitted tubular fabric over several in a row arranged spreader to move while doing the steam or a steam-air mixture alternately through the inflated tube from the inside out and then blow across. Aside from this very elaborate and therefore In the end, expensive treatment does not guarantee edge mark-free Failure of the tubular goods, since the treatment continues throughout the treatment Spreader is guided. The spreader bars and other device parts disclosed there become hot and hot in the course of the treatment lead to irreversible markings along the length of the treatment. In the The same script is also proposed, only one of these the web to use inflating spreader, of which the spread and pre-damped Goods are first placed on an endless belt, which the goods then only in one drying sieve drum device transported. This procedure alone ensures because of the interposed endless belt none to a desired width fixed tubular goods.
Durch die DE-A-16 35 363 ist lediglich ein kurzer vertikal ausgerichteter Breithalter bekannt, in dessen Heizkammer jedoch jede gewünschte Temperatur und jeder gewünschte Atmosphärenzustand erzeugt werden kann. Ein markierungsfreies Fixieren einer gewünschten Warenbahnbreite zusammen mit einem Fixieren der jeweils verwendeten Faser ist damit nicht möglich. Die Ware wird auch hier während der ganzen Behandlung mittels Breithalterelementen breit gehalten, was je nach der verwendeten Temperatur zu bleibenden Markierungen führt.DE-A-16 35 363 is only a short vertically oriented spreader known, but in the heating chamber any desired temperature and any desired Atmospheric condition can be generated. A mark-free fixation a desired web width together with a fixation of each used Fiber is not possible with it. The goods are also here throughout Treatment with spreader elements kept wide, depending on the used Temperature leads to permanent markings.
In der Trikotagenindustrie wird zunehmend eine künstliche elastische Faser wie Elasthan (z. B. Lycra) eingesetzt, um bei bestimmten z. B. Baumwollartikeln eine höhere Elastizität der Wirkware zu erhalten. Der Einsatz von Elasthan hat aber den Nachteil, dass die Warenbahnkante des aufgeschnittenen Schlauches noch stärker zum Aufrollen neigt als es sowieso bei Baumwolle der Fall ist. Weiterhin zieht sich die Elasthanfaser beim Aufschneiden des Schlauches und auch beim Zuschnitt für die Konfektionierung von der Schnittkante zurück, wodurch die Ware im Schnittkantenbereich unbrauchbar wird. Eine solche Ware ist im Schlauch zu fixieren.In the jersey industry, an artificial elastic fiber is increasingly being used Spandex (e.g. Lycra) used in certain z. B. Cotton items one to obtain higher elasticity of the knitted fabric. The use of spandex has that Disadvantage that the web edge of the cut hose is even stronger tends to roll up as is the case with cotton anyway. The continues Spandex fiber when cutting the hose and also when cutting for the Tailoring back from the cut edge, which means that the goods in Cut edge area becomes unusable. Such goods must be fixed in the hose.
Eine Faserfixierung der trockenen Ware, eine Fixierung der Chemiefaser erfolgt in bekannter Weise in einem Trockner bei erhöhter Temperatur. Die Temperatur darf aber nur so hoch sein, dass weder die Baumwolle noch die Elasthanfaser leidet. Dabei sind Faserfixiertemperaturen von üblichen 185 - 210 °C nicht anwendbar, weil dabei die Baumwolle spröde und hart wird und die Elasthanfaser sogar schmilzt. Die Ware bekommt dann bei diesen Temperaturen einen harten, rauen Griff. Niedrigere Temperaturen bringen aber einen schlechteren dauerhaften Faserfixiereffekt.The dry goods are fixed in fibers, the chemical fibers are fixed in known manner in a dryer at elevated temperature. The temperature is allowed only be so high that neither the cotton nor the elastane fiber suffers. Are Fiber fixing temperatures of the usual 185 - 210 ° C cannot be used because the Cotton becomes brittle and hard and the spandex fiber even melts. The goods then gets a hard, rough grip at these temperatures. Lower temperatures but bring a poorer permanent fiber fixing effect.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren und eine dazu geeignete Vorrichtung zu finden, mit der eine zufriedenstellende Faserfixierung einer z. B. Baumwoll-Schlauchware vermischt mit einer Elasthanfaser erzielbar ist.The invention has for its object a method and a suitable device to find with a satisfactory fiber fixation of a z. B. Cotton tubular fabric mixed with an elastane fiber can be achieved.
Ausgehend von dem vorbekannten Verfahren oben genannter Art, liegt die Erfindung zur Lösung der gestellten Aufgabe darin, dass ein aus z. B. Baumwolle und jedenfalls künstlichen elastischen Fasern wie Elasthan gewirkter Schlauch nach einem vorzugsweise kantenmarkierungsfreien Ausbreiten in Umgebungstemperatur unmittelbar anschließend nach dem Abgeben vom Breithalter einer Faserfixierbehandlung bei einer Temperatur von 160 bis 230 °C unterzogen wird, wobei das behandelnde Gas aufgeheizte Luft ist, in die Wasserdampf eingesprüht wird.The invention lies on the basis of the previously known method of the type mentioned above to solve the task in that a z. B. cotton and anyway artificial elastic fibers like elastane knitted tube after a preferably edge-free spreading in ambient temperature immediately then, after delivery from the spreader, a fiber fixation treatment is subjected to a temperature of 160 to 230 ° C, the treating gas is heated air into which water vapor is sprayed.
Vorzugsweise sollte die Fixiertemperatur 210 °C sein. Trotz dieser hohen Temperatur in der Wärmebehandlungsvorrichtung konnte keine Schädigung der Fasern festgestellt werden. Der Dampf wirkt als Faserschutz sowohl für die Baumwolle als auch für die Elasthanfaser. Die Ware ist auf die gewünschte Breite fixiert und hat einen seidenweichen Griff nach dem Fixierverfahren. Die Warenstruktur ist dauerhaft fixiert, der Schnittkantenbereich ist ohne weiteres verwendbar, ohne dass die Fasern einspringen oder die Randbereiche einrollen. The fixing temperature should preferably be 210 ° C. Despite this high temperature No damage to the fibers was found in the heat treatment device become. The steam acts as fiber protection for both the cotton and the Elastane. The goods are fixed to the desired width and have one silky smooth handle after the fixing process. The goods structure is permanently fixed, the cut edge area can be used without further ado without the fibers jumping in or roll up the edge areas.
Diese Fixierung bringt neben der Vorfixierung einige weitere Vorteile. Zum einen erhält man beim späteren Färben eine bessere Egalität. Die Pillingneigung während des Färbens und der Farbstoffverbrauch vermindern sich. Selbstverständlich wird auch eine Faltenbildung beim späteren Bleichen oder Färben, bedingt durch den Verdreheffekt der elasthanhaltigen Ware aufgrund der Systemringelbildung, verhindert.In addition to the pre-fixation, this fixation has several other advantages. For one, gets better levelness when dyeing later. The tendency to pilling during the Dyeing and dye consumption are reduced. Of course, too Wrinkling during later bleaching or dyeing due to the twisting effect of the elastane-containing goods due to the formation of system rings, prevented.
Wichtig ist auch, dass dieses Dampf-Luftgemisch schnell an die Faser kommt. Dazu eignet sich insbesondere die Durchströmung wie sie auf der Siebtrommel üblich ist. Die Verwendung einer Siebtrommel nach einem Breithalter ist zum Schrumpfen einer Schlauchware durch die DE-A-19 36 111 aber auch zum Trocknen durch die genannte DE-A-16 35 348 bekannt. Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung soll aber in Dampfatmosphäre eine besonders ausgebreitete Schlauchware im wesentlichen unverändert durch den Saugzug gehalten und so auch die Fasern fixiert werden.It is also important that this steam-air mixture reaches the fiber quickly. To the flow, as is usual on the sieve drum, is particularly suitable. The use of a screen drum after a spreader is for shrinking one Tubular goods by DE-A-19 36 111 but also for drying by the aforementioned DE-A-16 35 348 known. In the present invention, however, should be in a steam atmosphere a particularly expanded tubular goods essentially unchanged held by the suction and so the fibers are also fixed.
Der oder die Breithalter für die Schlauchware sind außerhalb der Wärmebehandlungsvorrichtung angeordnet und das Abgabeende des Breithalters erstreckt sich in die Wärmebehandlungsvorrichtung, in der die Schlauchware in dieser Breite gehalten ist. Das Ablaufende des Breithalters sollte dazu unmittelbar einer ersten Siebtrommel mit Vorteil tangential zugeordnet sein.The spreader (s) for the tubular goods are outside the heat treatment device arranged and the dispensing end of the spreader extends into the Heat treatment device in which the tubular goods are held in this width. For this purpose, the drain end of the spreader should be fitted with a first screen drum Advantage to be assigned tangentially.
Eine Vorrichtung der erfindungsgemäßen Art ist in der Zeichnung beispielhaft dargestellt. Die Figur zeigt einen Schnitt längs durch eine übliche Siebtrommelkonstruktion mit zwei Siebtrommeln und zwei übereinander der ersten Siebtrommel zugeordneten Breithaltern.A device of the type according to the invention is shown as an example in the drawing. The figure shows a section along a conventional sieve drum construction with two screening drums and two one above the other assigned to the first screening drum Expanders.
Eine Siebtrommelvorrichtung besteht grundsätzlich aus einem etwa rechteckigen,
wärmeisolierten Gehäuse 1, das durch eine in diesem Schnitt nicht darstellbare
Zwischenwand in einen Behandlungsraum 2 und einen Ventilatorraum unterteilt ist. Im
Behandlungsraum 2 sind zwei Siebtrommeln 3, 3' und konzentrisch zu diesen im Ventilatorraum
je ein Ventilator drehbar gelagert. Bei zwei Siebtrommeln kann das Textilgut
von beiden Seiten durchströmt werden. Der Ventilator setzt das Innere der Trommeln
3, 3' unter Saugzug. Ober- und unterhalb des Ventilators sind jeweils Heizaggregate
angeordnet, die aus mit Heizmedium durchflossenen Rohren bestehen. Ober- und
unterhalb der Siebtrommeln 3, 3' sind im Behandlungsraum 2 Staudecken 4 angeordnet,
die für den Stau und damit für die über die Arbeitsbreite gleichmäßige Verteilung
der vom Ventilator anströmenden Luft vor den Trommeln 3, 3' sorgen. Die Siebtrommeln
sind jeweils in dem nicht vom Textilgut 5 bedeckten Bereich innen von einer
an der Achse stationär gehaltenen Innenabdeckung 6 gegen den Saugzug abgedeckt.A screen drum device basically consists of an approximately rectangular, heat-insulated housing 1, which is divided into a treatment room 2 and a fan room by an intermediate wall (not shown in this section). In the treatment room 2 there are two sieve drums 3, 3 'and concentrically rotatable about each of these in the fan room. With two screening drums, the fabric can be flowed through from both sides. The fan draws the inside of the drums 3, 3 '. Heating units, which consist of pipes through which heating medium flows, are arranged above and below the fan. Above and below the screening drums 3, 3 ' 2
In der Siebtrommelvorrichtung soll Schlauchware 5 in den durch Breithalter 7, 8 vorgegebenen
Maßen fixiert werden. Dazu sind der ersten, aufwärts laufenden Siebtrommel
3 zwei Breithalter 7, 8 derart zugeordnet, dass das Abgabeende 9 tangential auf die
Oberseite der Siebtrommel 3 ausgerichtet ist. Die beiden Breithalter 7, 8 sind außerhalb
der Siebtrommelvorrichtung 1 und übereinander angeordnet. Damit sind die zur
Veränderung der Breiteneinstellung notwendigen Aggregate 10 von außen zugänglich.
Es können zwei Schläuche 5 übereinander der Siebtrommel zugeführt und dort
behandelt werden. Von den Breithaltern 7, 8 können je nach Arbeitsbreite der Vorrichtung
1 auch mehrere nebeneinander angeordnet sein.In the sieve drum device,
Mit den in diesem Schnitt nicht dargestellten Heizaggregaten kann die Behandlungsluft
auf die notwendige Temperatur aufgeheizt werden. Zur Fixierung der Schlauchware ist
eine Temperatur von 180 - 230, vorzugsweise 210 °C notwendig. Damit bei dieser
Temperatur keine Schädigung der Baumwollfaser und kein Schmelzen der Elasthanfaser
eintritt, wird der Fixiervorgang mit einem entsprechend aufgeheizten Dampf-Luftgemische
durchgeführt. Dazu wird in den Behandlungsraum Dampf eingesprüht. Diese
Tatsache ist durch Pfeile 11 angedeutet. Die Zuführung des Dampfes kann in den
Ventilatorraum oder an einer anderen geeigneten Stelle erfolgen. Das erzeugte
überhitzte Dampf-Luftgemisch verhindert auch bei dieser hohen Fixiertemperatur die
Schädigung der Fasem. Weiterhin ist die Behandlung auf der Siebtrommel sehr
schnell wirksam und kann damit auch kurzzeitig zum gewünschten Ziel führen.With the heating units not shown in this section, the treatment air
be heated to the necessary temperature. For fixing the tubular goods
a temperature of 180 - 230, preferably 210 ° C is necessary. So with this
Temperature no damage to the cotton fiber and no melting of the elastane fiber
occurs, the fixing process with a correspondingly heated steam-air mixture
carried out. For this, steam is sprayed into the treatment room. This
The fact is indicated by
