Description
- The present invention relates to a yarn processing apparatus, which carries out a processing such as false-twisting or air-processing for yarn.
- Conventionally, there have been known a false-twist processing apparatus and an air processing apparatus (or fluid disturbance processing apparatus) as a typical yarn processing apparatus that processes yarn.
- Incidentally, each yarn processing apparatus includes a plurality of spindles to be controlled all at once, and a gear box equipped on the side of the apparatus itself. The structure of the yarn processing apparatus brings about enlargement of the apparatus. The structure of the apparatus causes centering of each spindle to be difficult and causes assembling of the apparatus to be complicated. This structure does not facilitate conveying of the apparatus itself. Furthermore, the processing apparatus is constituted of a single apparatus, and thus, in order to obtain another kind of finished yarn, another processing apparatus is necessary.
- If the processing apparatus is assembled once, it is difficult to change the structure of each apparatus and yarn fashion. The processing apparatus is difficult to deal with many varieties and a small number of lots.
- An object of the present invention is to simplify and facilitate assembling of the yarn processing apparatus and to facilitate conveying thereof.
- Another object is to easily change a structure of each apparatus. Thus, this structure can deal with yarn fashion, many varieties of few lots, and various processes upon changing in yarn kind or variety by units.
- The invention is directed to a yarn processing apparatus. The apparatus includes a first yarn feeder for feeding at least a yarn to a main frame. The apparatus includes a yarn processor for processing the yarn. The apparatus includes a second yarn feeder for feeding a processed yarn. The apparatus includes a winder for winding a fed yarn. The yarn processing apparatus is characterized in that each of the first yarn feeder, the yarn processor, the second yarn feeder, and the winder includes spindles, and operators for actuating the spindles independently of each other. The spindles and the operators are assembled as a unit.
- Preferably, the yarn processing apparatus further includes a heat treater provided to the main frame. The heat treater includes spindles. The heat treater includes operators for independently operating the spindles, respectively. The spindles and the operators are assembled as a unit.
- Preferably, the yarn processor includes a false-twist processor.
- Preferably, the yarn processor includes an air processor.
- Preferably, the yarn processor is removable.
- Preferably, a unit block assembled as a unit is removable from the main frame at a predetermined position, and is installable at a designated another position.
- Preferably, unit blocks each assembled as a unit are provided.
- According to the invention, the assembly as a unit facilitates and simplifies assembling of the yarn processing apparatus. In addition, no gear box simplifies the structure of the yarn processing apparatus.
- The heat treater is assembled as a unit. The equipping of the heat treater with the first yarn feeder allows a yarn to be preset. The locating of the heat treater between the first yarn feeder and the yarn processor allows the yarn to be set. In addition, the locating of the heat treater between the first yarn feeder and the yarn processor allows the yarn to be secondarily set.
- The yarn processor with the false-twist processor allows a yarn to be false-twist processed.
- The yarn processor with the air processor allows a yarn to be air processed.
- The yarn processor is removable. For example, if the yarn processor has a false-twist processor installed thereto, the removing of the false-twist processor and the installing of the air processor allows the false-twist processor to be replaced by the air-processor. For example, if the yarn processor has an air-processor installed thereto, the removing of the air processor and the installing of the false-twist processor allows the air-processor to be replaced by the false-twist processor.
- A machine structure can be easily changed, which enables dealing with yarn fashion. Layouts can be arbitrarily changed.
- Respective blocks correspond to the change of respective varieties. This simply corresponds to many varieties of few lots, and corresponds to many lots. In addition, when necessary, a unit block assembled as a necessary unit can be added.
