- the filament bundles consist of a plurality of individual filament strands, which are extruded through the nozzle openings of a spinneret to endless strands. After several treatment steps by cooling and stretching the colored filament bundles are combined to form a composite thread.
- the composite yarn thus receives a mixed color, which arises from the merger of the colored filaments of the individual filament bundles.
- Such multicolor composite yarns are used in particular in the production of BCF yarns, in which in particular the mixed color of the composite yarn determines the visual appearance of the carpet.
- the mixed color of the composite yarn determines the visual appearance of the carpet.
- different color patterns result in the carpet fabric. Therefore, in practice, there is a desire to combine the colored filament bundles as flexibly as possible to a desired mixed color of the composite thread.

- the production of the colored polymer melt provided for the extrusion of one of the filament bundles can be carried out according to a process variant such that the delivery rate of the polymer melt to be extruded is increased or decreased.
- an increase in the delivery rate of the polymer melt would cause the spinneret to have a higher melt throughput during the extrusion of the filament bundle and thus to set a higher spider titer of the filament bundle.

- the process variant is preferably used, in which the production of the polymer melts is changed repeatedly in a predetermined time interval. This allows regular color patterns to be created in the composite thread, which in turn could be used to create special visual effects in a carpet pattern of a carpet fabric.

Die Filamentbündel bestehen aus einer Vielzahl einzelner Filamentstränge, die durch die Düsenöffnungen einer Spinndüse zu endlosen Strängen extrudiert werden. Nach mehreren Behandlungsschritten durch Abkühlen und Verstrecken werden die farbigen Filamentbündel zu einem Verbundfaden zusammengeführt. Der Verbundfaden erhält somit eine Mischfarbe, die sich aus dem Zusammenschluss der farbigen Filamente der einzelnen Filamentbündel einstellt.In the known method and the known device for producing a multi-colored composite yarn initially several colored polymer melts are produced in parallel side by side and extruded through a plurality of separate spinnerets to each a colored filament bundle.

Therefore, in practice, there is a desire to combine the colored filament bundles as flexibly as possible to a desired mixed color of the composite thread.
Bei dem bekannten Verfahren und der bekannten Vorrichtung lassen sich hierzu die Anzahl der Filamentbündel, die zu einem Verbundfaden kombiniert werden, verändern. So können beispielsweise zwei- oder dreifarbige Filamentbündel zu einem Verbundfaden kombiniert werden, der jeweils eine Mischfarbe aufweist.In the case of the known method and the known device, the number of filament bundles which are combined to form a composite thread can be changed for this purpose. Thus, for example, two- or three-color filament bundles can be combined to form a composite thread, each having a mixed color.
Damit ergeben sich jedoch Varianten eines Verbundfadens, die in Anzahl der Filamentbündel unterschiedlich sind.However, this results in variants of a composite thread, which are different in number of filament bundles.
Um einen Verbundfaden aus mehreren farbigen Filamentbündeln bei gleicher Anzahl der Filamentbündel zu bilden, sind im Stand der Technik weitere Vorrichtungen und Verfahren bekannt. So geht beispielsweise aus der

Allen aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahren und Vorrichtungen zur Herstellung eines mehrfarbigen Verbundfadens ist gemein, dass allein durch die Art und Weise des Zusammenführens der Filamentbündel ein bestimmtes Erscheinungsbild und Aussehen des Verbundfadens insbesondere der Mischfarbe des Verbundfadens erreicht werden soll. Derartige Verfahren stellen jedoch eine zunehmende Belastung der Filamentstränge innerhalb der Filamentbündel dar, die zudem sich negativ auf eine zuvor in den Filamenten eingebrachte Kräuselung auswirken können. Die mit der Vermengung der Einzelfilamente der Filamentbündel erzielten Veränderungen der Mischfarbe sind außerdem nur in engen Grenzen möglich, da die Gesamtzahl der farbigen Filamente innerhalb des Verbundfadens konstant bleibt.All known from the prior art methods and apparatus for producing a multi-colored composite thread is common that solely by the manner of bringing together the filament bundles a certain appearance and appearance of the composite yarn, in particular the mixed color of the composite yarn is to be achieved. However, such processes are an increasing burden on the filament strands within the filament bundles that In addition, it can have a negative effect on a previously introduced in the filaments crimp. The changes in the mixed color achieved with the mixing of the individual filaments of the filament bundles are also possible only within narrow limits, since the total number of colored filaments within the composite thread remains constant.
Es ist zwar aus der
Es ist somit Aufgabe der Erfindung ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung eines mehrfarbigen Verbundfadens der gattungsgemäßen Art derart weiterzubilden, dass eine Mischfarbe des Verbundfadens flexibel einstellbar und veränderbar ist.It is therefore an object of the invention to develop a method and an apparatus for producing a multi-colored composite thread of the generic type such that a mixed color of the composite thread is flexibly adjustable and changeable.
Ein weiteres Ziel der Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung eines mehrfarbigen Verbundfadens bereitzustellen, bei welchem der Verbundfaden mit vorbestimmten Farbeffekten in der Mischfarbe herstellbar ist.A further object of the invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for producing a multi-colored composite yarn in which the composite yarn can be produced with predetermined color effects in the mixed color.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen nach Anspruch 1 und durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen nach Anspruch 8 gelöst.This object is achieved by a method having the features of
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind durch die Merkmale und Merkmalskombinationen der jeweiligen Unteransprüche definiert.Advantageous developments of the invention are defined by the features and feature combinations of the respective subclaims.
Die Erfindung besitzt den besonderen Vorteil, dass kein zusätzlicher Eingriff zur Vermengung der Filamente der farbigen Filamentbündel erforderlich ist, um die Mischfarbe des Verbundfadens zu verändern. Zur Veränderung oder Einstellung der Mischfarbe des Verbundfadens wird erfindungsgemäß die Erzeugung der eingefärbten Polymerschmelzen während der Extrusion der Filamentbündel geändert. Damit besteht die Möglichkeit, die Extrusion der Filamentbündel in der Art und Weise zu beeinflussen, dass die das Filamentbündel bildenden Filamente bereits in einem gewünschten visuellen Erscheinungsbild erzeugt werden, um im Zusammenschluss mit den übrigen Filamentbündeln die gewünschte Mischfarbe des Verbundfadens zu erhalten.The invention has the particular advantage that no additional intervention for mixing the filaments of the colored filament bundles is required to the To change the mixed color of the composite thread. To change or adjust the mixed color of the composite thread, the production of the colored polymer melts during the extrusion of the filament bundles is changed according to the invention. It is thus possible to influence the extrusion of the filament bundles in such a way that the filaments forming the filament bundle are already produced in a desired visual appearance, in order to obtain the desired mixed color of the composite filament in combination with the remaining filament bundles.
Um trotz der veränderten Erzeugung der eingefärbten Polymerschmelzen und die damit einhergehenden Änderungen der Extrusion der Filamentbündel, einen Verbundfaden mit möglichst gleichen physikalischen Eigenschaften zu erhalten, wird die Verfahrensvariante bevorzugt ausgeführt, bei welcher der Verbundfaden durch einen Gesamttiter bestimmt ist, der vor und nach der Veränderung der Mischfarbe des Verbundfadens gleichgroß ist. Diese Verfahrensvariante ermöglicht somit einen Eingriff in den Schmelz-Spinn-Prozess zur Herstellung des Verbundfadens, um nur die Mischfarbe und damit das Aussehen des Verbundfadens zu verändern.In order to obtain a composite yarn with the same physical properties as possible despite the altered production of the colored polymer melts and the associated changes in the extrusion of the filament bundles, the process variant in which the composite yarn is determined by a total titer before and after the change is preferably carried out the mixed color of the composite thread is the same size. This variant of the method thus makes it possible to intervene in the melt-spinning process for producing the composite thread in order to change only the mixed color and thus the appearance of the composite thread.
Die Erzeugung der für die Extrusion eines der Filamentbündel bereitgestellten eingefärbten Polymerschmelze lässt sich gemäß einer Verfahrensvariante derart ausführen, dass die Fördermenge der zu extrudierenden Polymerschmelze erhöht oder verringert wird. So würde eine Erhöhung der Fördermenge der Polymerschmelze dazu führen, dass die Spinndüse bei der Extrusion des Filamentbündels einen höheren Schmelzedurchsatz aufweist und sich damit ein höherer Spinntiter des Filamentbündels einstellt. Damit wird insgesamt der durch das Filamentbündel bestimmende Farbanteil innerhalb des Verbundfadens gegenüber den übrigen Filamentbündeln aufgrund der großen Masse erhöht. Die Farbe des Filamentbündels tritt somit stärker hervor. Trotz gleicher Farbkonzentrationen innerhalb der Filamente lassen sich durch Änderung des Schmelzedurchsatzes und damit Änderung der Spinntiter der Filamente unterschiedliche Farbeffekte in dem Verbundfaden erzeugen. So weisen dicke und dünne Filamente grundsätzlich unterschiedliche Lichtreflektionen auf. Mit zunehmendem Filamenttiter wird das Erscheinungsbild dunkler.The production of the colored polymer melt provided for the extrusion of one of the filament bundles can be carried out according to a process variant such that the delivery rate of the polymer melt to be extruded is increased or decreased. Thus, an increase in the delivery rate of the polymer melt would cause the spinneret to have a higher melt throughput during the extrusion of the filament bundle and thus to set a higher spider titer of the filament bundle. Thus, the color content within the composite thread relative to the remaining filament bundles, which is determined by the filament bundle, is increased overall due to the large mass. The color of the filament bundle thus emerges stronger. Despite the same color concentrations within the filaments, different color effects can be produced in the composite thread by changing the throughput of the melt and thus changing the filaments of the filaments. So have thick and thin filaments basically different light reflections. As the filament titer increases, the appearance becomes darker.
Um derartige Farbgebungseffekte in dem Verbundfaden zu verstärken, ist die Verfahrensvariante besonders vorteilhaft, bei welcher mehrere Fördermengen der Polymerschmelzen in Relation zu einer Gesamtfördermenge aller Polymerschmelzen zur Extrusion aller Filamentbündel gleichzeitig geändert werden. So lässt sich beispielsweise eine Polymerschmelze in einer ersten Farbe mit größerer Fördermenge und eine zweite Polymerschmelze mit einer zweiten Farbe mit einer kleineren Fördermenge kombinieren, so dass die Farbdominanz des Filamentbündels, das mit größerer Fördermenge extrudiert wird, in dem Verbundfaden noch höher ist.In order to enhance such coloring effects in the composite yarn, the process variant in which a plurality of delivery rates of the polymer melts are changed simultaneously in relation to a total delivery amount of all the polymer melts for extruding all the filament bundles. Thus, for example, a polymer melt in a first color with a larger delivery rate and a second polymer melt with a second color with a smaller delivery rate can be combined so that the color dominance of the filament bundle, which is extruded at a higher delivery rate, is even higher in the composite thread.
Um bei einer Mehrzahl von Filamentbündeln einen möglichst konstanten Gesamttiter des Verbundfadens zu erhalten, werden die Fördermengen der Polymerschmelzen derart geändert, dass die Summe aller Fördermengen gleich der Gesamtfördermenge ist. Somit können die Filamentbündel in unterschiedlichen Spinntiter extrudiert werden, ohne dass nach dem Zusammenschluss der Gesamttiter des Verbundfadens über- oder unterschritten wird.In order to obtain as constant as possible a total titer of the composite thread in a plurality of filament bundles, the delivery rates of the polymer melts are changed such that the sum of all delivery rates is equal to the total delivery. Thus, the filament bundles can be extruded in different spun titer without exceeding or falling short of the total denier of the composite thread after the merger.
Für den Fall, dass die Einfärbung der Polymerschmelzen mittels einer flüssigen Farbe erfolgt, ist die Verfahrensvariante verwendet, bei welcher eine Einspeisung einer flüssigen Farbe in zumindest eine der Polymerschmelzen durch Erhöhung oder Verringerung einer Menge der Farbe geändert wird. Damit lässt sich vorteilhaft der Grad der Einfärbung der Polymerschmelze vor und während der Extrusion der Filamentbündel beeinflussen, so dass das Filamentbündel direkt aus einer stärker gefärbten Polymerschmelze oder einer weniger stark gefärbten Polymerschmelze extrudiert werden können.In the case that the coloring of the polymer melts takes place by means of a liquid paint, the method variant is used in which a feed of a liquid paint into at least one of the polymer melts is changed by increasing or decreasing an amount of the paint. This advantageously allows the degree of coloring of the polymer melt to be influenced before and during the extrusion of the filament bundles so that the filament bundle can be extruded directly from a more colored polymer melt or a less strongly colored polymer melt.
Auch hierbei lassen sich die Mischfarbeneffekte insbesondere dadurch verbessern, dass die Einspeisungen mehrerer flüssiger Farbe in mehrere Polymerschmelzen gleichzeitig durch Erhöhung oder Verringerung der Mengen der Farben geändert wird.Here, too, the mixed color effects can be improved, in particular, by the fact that the feeds of several liquid colors into several polymer melts is simultaneously changed by increasing or decreasing the amounts of colors.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist somit besonders geeignet, um bei einem Prozessstart eine gewünschte Mischfarbe in dem Verbundfaden einzustellen, ohne den Prozess zu unterbrechen.The method according to the invention is therefore particularly suitable for setting a desired mixed color in the composite thread at a start of the process without interrupting the process.
Zur Herstellung von Teppichgarnen wird die Verfahrensvariante bevorzugt eingesetzt, bei welcher die Erzeugung der Polymerschmelzen in einem vorbestimmten Zeitintervall wiederholt geändert wird. Damit lassen sich regelmäßige Farbmuster in dem Verbundfaden erzeugen, die wiederum zur Erzeugung von visuellen Spezialeffekten in einem Teppichmuster eines Teppichgewebes genutzt werden könnten.For the production of carpet yarns, the process variant is preferably used, in which the production of the polymer melts is changed repeatedly in a predetermined time interval. This allows regular color patterns to be created in the composite thread, which in turn could be used to create special visual effects in a carpet pattern of a carpet fabric.
Alternativ lässt sich das Verfahren derart betreiben, dass die Erzeugung der Polymerschmelze durch eine Maschineneinstellung bestimmt wird, wobei die Extrusion der Filamentbündel mit wechselnden Maschineneinstellungen erfolgt. Hierzu lässt sich beispielsweise durch empirische Versuche Maschineneinstellungen definieren, die zu bestimmten Mischfarben des Verbundfadens führen. So lässt sich das Muster der Mischfarben in den Verbundenfaden durch regelmäßigen Wechsel der Maschineneinstellung vorgeben.Alternatively, the method can be operated such that the production of the polymer melt is determined by a machine setting, wherein the extrusion of the filament bundles takes place with changing machine settings. This can be defined, for example, by empirical experiments machine settings that lead to certain mixed colors of the composite thread. Thus, the pattern of mixed colors in the composite thread can be specified by regularly changing the machine setting.
Zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens weist die erfindungsgemä-βe Vorrichtung eine Steuereinrichtung auf, die zumindest mit einem der Mittel zur Erzeugung der Polymerschmelze verbunden ist und die während der Extrusion der Filamentbündel das Erzeugungsmittel zur Veränderung der Farbmischung des Verbundfadens steuert.For carrying out the method according to the invention, the device according to the invention has a control device which is connected to at least one of the means for producing the polymer melt and which controls the generating means for changing the color mixing of the composite thread during the extrusion of the filament bundles.
Zur Einhaltung eines Gesamttiters des Verbundfadens ist gemäß einer Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung vorgesehen, dass die Steuereinrichtung einen Mikroprozessor aufweist, durch welchen zumindest Rechenoperationen zur Festlegung eines dem Erzeugungsmittel zugeführten Steuersignal unter Einhaltung des Gesamttiters des Verbundfadens ausführbar sind. Somit lässt sich die Erzeugung der Polymerschmelze kontrolliert und in Abstimmung mit den übrigen Polymerschmelzen ändern.In order to maintain an overall titer of the composite thread, it is provided according to a development of the device according to the invention that the control device has a microprocessor, by means of which at least arithmetic operations for Determining a control signal supplied to the generating means in compliance with the total titre of the composite thread can be executed. Thus, the production of the polymer melt can be controlled and changed in coordination with the other polymer melts.
Zur Beeinflussung der Fördermenge weisen die Mittel zur Erzeugung der Polymerschmelzen mehrere Spinnpumpen auf, die unabhängig voneinander durch mehrere Pumpenantriebe antreibbar sind. Dabei ist zumindest einer der Pumpenantriebe zur Änderung einer Antriebsdrehzahl der zugeordneten Spinnpumpe mit der Steuereinrichtung gekoppelt. So lässt sich durch Erhöhung oder Absenkung der Antriebsdrehzahl der Spinnpumpe die Fördermenge der Spinnpumpe verändern.To influence the flow rate, the means for producing the polymer melts on a plurality of spinning pumps, which are independently driven by a plurality of pump drives. In this case, at least one of the pump drives for changing a drive speed of the associated spin pump is coupled to the control device. Thus, by increasing or decreasing the drive speed of the spinning pump, the delivery rate of the spinning pump can be changed.
Zur Einhaltung einer Gesamtfördermenge sind bevorzugt alle Pumpenantriebe der Spinnpumpe gemeinsam mit der Steuereinrichtung verbunden, so dass die Erhöhung der Antriebsdrehzahl einer der Pumpenantriebe mit einer entsprechenden Absenkung der Antriebsdrehzahl eines anderen Pumpenantriebes oder eine Absenkung der Antriebsdrehzahl mehrerer Pumpenantriebe kompensiert werden kann. Die Summe der Fördermengen entspricht somit einer Gesamtfördermenge, die während der Extrusion der Filamentbündel konstant bleibt.To maintain a total delivery rate, all pump drives of the spinning pump are preferably connected together with the control device, so that the increase in the drive speed of one of the pump drives can be compensated with a corresponding reduction in the drive speed of another pump drive or a reduction in the drive speed of a plurality of pump drives. The sum of the delivery rates thus corresponds to a total delivery, which remains constant during the extrusion of the filament bundles.
Je nach Art und Weise der Einfärbung der Polymerschmelze lässt sich die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung derart weiterbilden, dass die Mittel zur Erzeugung der Polymerschmelzen mehrere Einspeiseeinrichtungen zur Einspeisung mehrere flüssige Farben aufweisen, dass die Einspeiseeinrichtungen mehrere durch separate Dosierantriebe antreibbare Dosierpumpen aufweisen und dass zumindest einer der Dosierantriebe zur Änderung einer Antriebsdrehzahl der zugeordneten Dosierpumpe mit der Steuereinrichtung verbunden ist. Damit lässt sich die Farbgebung der einzelnen Polymerschmelzen individuell durch Erhöhung oder Absenkung der Zugabe des Farbmittels beeinflussen.Depending on the manner in which the polymer melt is colored, the device according to the invention can be developed in such a way that the means for producing the polymer melts have a plurality of feed devices for feeding in a plurality of liquid colors, the feed devices having a plurality of metering pumps which can be driven by separate metering drives, and at least one of the metering drives for Changing a drive speed of the associated metering pump is connected to the control device. Thus, the color of the individual polymer melts can be influenced individually by increasing or decreasing the addition of the colorant.
Um an dem Verbundfaden ein Mischfarbeneffekt zu erhalten, wird die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung bevorzugt in der Ausführung betrieben, bei welcher die Steuereinrichtung zumindest ein Steuerprogramm aufweist, durch welches mehrere Maschineneinstellung abwechselnd an den Mitteln zur Erzeugung der Polymerschmelze einstellbar sind. So könne beispielsweise die Spinnpumpen zwischen zwei Betriebsdrehzahlen hin- und herverstellt werden, so dass jede Verstellung eine Mischfarbenänderung des Verbundfadens zur Folge hat.In order to obtain a mixed color effect on the composite thread, the device according to the invention is preferably operated in the embodiment in which the control device has at least one control program, by which a plurality of machine settings are alternately adjustable to the means for generating the polymer melt. Thus, for example, the spinning pumps can be moved back and forth between two operating speeds, so that each adjustment results in a mixed color change of the composite thread.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren und die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung sind grundsätzlich geeignet, um mehrfarbige Verbundfäden aus einem Polyamidwerkstoff beispielsweise einem Polyester, Polypropylen oder Polyamid oder Kombinationen solcher Werkstoffe herzustellen. Insbesondere ist das Verfahren und die Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von sogenannten BCF-Garnen geeignet. Hierzu wird die Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung verwendet, bei welcher das Verbundmittel zumindest eine Kräuseleinrichtung aufweist, durch welche die Filamentbündel gekräuselt zu dem Verbundfaden zusammengeführt werden. Derartige gekräuselte Verbundfäden lassen sich unmittelbar einer Weiterverarbeitung eines Teppichgewebes verwenden.The method according to the invention and the device according to the invention are fundamentally suitable for producing multicolored composite threads of a polyamide material, for example a polyester, polypropylene or polyamide or combinations of such materials. In particular, the method and the device for the production of so-called BCF yarns is suitable. For this purpose, the development of the device according to the invention is used, in which the composite means comprises at least one crimping device, by which the filament bundles are gathered together curled to form the composite thread. Such crimped composite threads can be used directly for further processing of a carpet fabric.
Alternativ besteht jedoch auch die Möglichkeit, dass das Verbundmittel zumindest eine Verwirbelungsdüse aufweist, durch welche die Filamentbündel zu dem Verbundfaden zusammengeführt werden. Auch hierbei lassen sich Kombinationen derart ausführen, dass sowohl die Filamentbündel separat vor dem Verwirbeln oder der Verbundfaden nach dem Verwirbeln in einer Kräuseleinrichtung gekräuselt werden. Darüber hinaus sind zusätzliche Behandlungen an den Filamentbündeln sowie in dem Verbundfaden vor oder nach dem Zusammenführen möglich. Derartige Behandlungen können durch Verwirbeln, Verstrecken und Relaxation gebildet sein.Alternatively, however, there is also the possibility that the composite means has at least one swirling nozzle through which the filament bundles are brought together to form the composite thread. Again, combinations can be carried out such that both the filament bundles are crimped separately before vortexing or the composite thread after vortexing in a crimping device. In addition, additional treatments on the filament bundles as well as in the composite thread before or after the merger are possible. Such treatments may be formed by swirling, stretching and relaxation.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren wird nachfolgend anhand einiger Ausführungsbeispiele der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung unter Hinweis auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen näher beschrieben.The method according to the invention will be described in more detail below with reference to some embodiments of the device according to the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Zur Extrusion der Filamente wird den Spinndüsen 4.1, 4.2 und 4.3 jeweils eine farbige Polymerschmelze zugeführt. Hierzu ist jeder Spinndüsen 4.1, 4.2 und 4.3 eine Spinnpumpe 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 zugeordnet, die über die Verteilerleitungen 6.1, 6.2 und 6.3 die jeweiligen Polymerschmelzen unter Druck den Spinndüsen 4.1, 4.2 und 4.3 zuführen. Die Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 sind nebeneinander an einer Oberseite des Spinnbalkens 3 angeordnet. Jedem der Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 ist ein separater Pumpenantrieb zugeordnet. So wird die Spinnpumpe 2.1 durch den Pumpenantrieb 7.1, die Spinnpumpe 2.2 durch den Pumpenantrieb 7.2 und die Spinnpumpe 2.3 durch den Pumpenantrieb 7.3 angetrieben. Zur Steuerung der Antriebe ist eine Steuereinrichtung 8 vorgesehen, die mit den Pumpenantrieben 7.1, 7.2 und 7.3 gekoppelt ist. Über die Steuereinrichtung 8 ist jeder der Pumpenantriebe 7.1, 7.2 und 7.3 individuell anzusteuern, so dass die durch die Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 erzeugten Polymerschmelzeströme separat und gleichmäßig den Spinndüsen 4.1, 4.2 und 4.3 zugeführt werden.To extrude the filaments, the spinnerets 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 are each fed with a colored polymer melt. For this purpose, each spinneret 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is associated with a spinning pump 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, via the distribution lines 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 supply the respective polymer melts under pressure to the spinnerets 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3. The spinning pumps 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 are arranged side by side on an upper side of the
Auf einer Einlassseite sind die Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 jeweils über eine Schmelzeleitung mit einem Extruder verbunden. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel ist ein erster Extruder 1.1 über die Schmelzeleitung 5.1 mit der Spinnpumpe 2.1 gekoppelt. Dementsprechend ist ein zweiter Extruder 1.2 über die Schmelzeleitung 5.2 mit der Spinnpumpe 2.2 und der Extruder 1.3 über die Schmelzeleitung 5.3 mit der Spinnpumpe 2.3 verbunden. In jedem der Extruder 1.1 bis 1.3 wird eine farbige Polymerschmelze erzeugt. Hierzu kann dem Extruder ein Granulat eines Polymerwerkstoffes sowie Additive und Farbmittel zugegeben werden.On an inlet side, the spinning pumps 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 are each connected via a melt line to an extruder. In this embodiment, a first extruder 1.1 is coupled via the melt line 5.1 with the spinning pump 2.1. Accordingly, a second extruder 1.2 is connected via the melt line 5.2 with the spinning pump 2.2 and the extruder 1.3 via the melt line 5.3 with the spin pump 2.3. In each of the extruder 1.1 to 1.3, a colored polymer melt is produced. For this purpose, the granules of a polymer material and additives and colorants can be added to the extruder.
Zur Herstellung eines Verbundfadens werden die Filamentbündel 13.1, 13.2 und 13.3 nach einer Abkühlung und nach einem Zusammenfassen durch jeweils einen Fadenführer 10 mittels einer Behandlungseinrichtung 11 von den Spinndüsen 4.1, 4.2 und 4.3 abgezogen. Die Behandlungseinrichtung 11 ist nur symbolisch dargestellt, da die Prozessaggregate innerhalb der Behandlungseinrichtung 11 in Abhängigkeit von dem jeweilig herzustellenden Fadentyp ausgebildet und individuell zusammengestellt sind. So lässt sich beispielsweise eine Verstreckung sowohl an den einzelnen Filamentbündeln als auch in dem Verbundfaden ausführen. Die Behandlungseinrichtung 11 könnte somit Präparationsvorrichtung, Verstreckvorrichtungen, Verwirbelungsvorrichtungen, Relaxationsvorrichtungen und/ oder Kräuselvorrichtungen aufweisen. Wesentlich zur Erzeugung des Verbundfadens 14 ist hierbei jedoch ein Verbundmittel, das innerhalb der Behandlungseinrichtung 11 die Filamentbündel 13.1, 13.2 und 13.3 zusammenführt und aus den verschieden farbigen Filamentsträngen der Filamentbündel 13.1, 13.2 und 13.3 einen Verbundfaden 14 mit einer Mischfarbe erzeugt.To produce a composite thread, the filament bundles 13.1, 13.2 and 13.3 are withdrawn from the spinnerets 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 after cooling and after being combined by a

Zur Speicherung des hergestellten Verbundfadens 14 wird dieser üblicherweise zu einer Spule 16 aufgewickelt. Somit ist der Behandlungseinrichtung 11 eine Aufwickeleinrichtung 15 nachgeordnet, die in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel zwei an einem Spindelträger 18 gehaltene Spulspindel 17.1 und 17.2 aufweist, so dass der Verbundfaden 14 kontinuierlich zu einer Spule 16 aufgewickelt werden kann. Die Wicklung der Spule 16 erfolgt mit Hilfe einer Changiereinrichtung 19, die den Verbundfaden entlang der Spulenoberfläche hin- und herführt, so dass eine Kreuzspule gewickelt wird.For storage of the produced

Für den Fall, dass die Mischfarbe noch nicht das gewünschte Aussehen des Verbundfadens 14 darstellt, wird die Erzeugung der Polymerschmelze geändert. Hierzu wird über die Steuereinrichtung 8 eine Änderung zumindest einer Antriebsdrehzahl einer der Pumpenantriebe 7.1, 7.2 und 7.3 eingeleitet. So könnte beispielsweise die Fördermenge der Spinnpumpe 2.1 erhöht werden, so dass eine größere Menge blau gefärbter Polymerschmelze zur Extrusion der Spinndüse 4.1 zugeführt wird. Damit stellt sich bei der Extrusion des Filamentbündels 13.1 ein größerer Spinntiter ein, so dass sich insgesamt der Masseanteil der blau gefärbten Filamente erhöht und somit die Mischfarbe in dem Verbundfaden 14 eine entsprechend stärkere Blautönung erhält.In the event that the mixed color is not yet the desired appearance of the
Diese Verfahrensvariante wird vorzugsweise jedoch derart ausgeführt, dass bei Veränderung der Fördermengen einer der Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 möglichst keine Veränderung des Gesamttiters des Verbundfadens 14 eintritt. Somit ist innerhalb der Steuereinrichtung 8 ein Mikroprozessor 9 vorgesehen, in welchem eine Gesamtfördermenge hinterlegt ist, die sich aus der Summe der einzelnen Fördermengen der drei Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 einstellt, um den Gesamttiter des Verbundfadens 14 zu erhalten. In dem Fall, dass zur Veränderung der Mischfarbe einer der Spinnpumpen 2.1, 2.2 und 2.3 eine höhere Fördermenge einzustellen ist, wird über den Mikroprozessor 9 eine entsprechende Kompensationsrechnung in der Art ausgeführt, dass zumindest bei einer anderen oder bei beiden anderen Spinnpumpen eine Verringerung der Fördermenge erfolgt. So lassen sich dementsprechende Steuersignale erzeugen und die Pumpenantriebe 7.1, 7.2 und 7.3 in Kombination individuell verstellen, ohne dass dabei eine Gesamtfördermenge der drei Spinnpumpen überschritten wird.However, this variant of the method is preferably carried out in such a way that if there is a change in the delivery rates of one of the spinning pumps 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, as far as possible no change in the total titre of the
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren sowie die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ist daher besonders geeignet, um mit hoher Flexibilität eine Mischfarbe an einen Verbundfaden 14 aufgrund bereitgestellter Basisfarben herzustellen.The method according to the invention and the device according to the invention are therefore particularly suitable for producing a mixed color with a high degree of flexibility on a

So ist jeder Schmelzeleitung 5.1, 5.2 und 5.3 jeweils eine der Einspeiseeinrichtungen 27.1, 27.2, 27.3 und eine der Mischeinrichtungen 26.1, 26.2 und 26.3 zugeordnet.Thus, each melt line 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 each one of the feed devices 27.1, 27.2, 27.3 and one of the mixing devices 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3 assigned.
Die Dosierantriebe 29.1, 29.2 und 29.3 der Dosierpumpen 28.1, 28.2 und 28.3 sind gemeinsam mit der Steuereinrichtung 8 gekoppelt, so dass durch Einstellung der Fördermengen an den Dosierpumpen 28.1, 28.2 und 28.3 individuelle Mengen von Farben zur Einfärbung der Polymerschmelzen zugeführt werden können.The metering drives 29.1, 29.2 and 29.3 of the metering pumps 28.1, 28.2 and 28.3 are coupled together with the
Im Betriebszustand lässt sich somit eine Mischfarbe eines Verbundfadens 12 in einfacher Art und Weise derart verändern, in dem über die Steuereinrichtung 8 zumindest einer der Dosierantriebe 29.1 bis 29.3 zur Änderung der Einspeisemenge der Farbe angesteuert wird. So lässt sich über den Dosierantrieb die Antriebsdrehzahl der Dosierpumpe erhöhen oder verringern, so dass eine größere oder kleinere Menge der flüssigen Farbe jeweils zur Einfärbung der Polymerschmelze zugeführt wird. Diese Verfahrensvariante besitzt zudem den Vorteil, dass die während der Extrusion eingestellte Änderung der Erzeugung der Polymerschmelze sich nicht auf den Spinntiter der Filamentbündel 13.1, 13.2 und 13.3 auswirkt. Die Spinntiter der extrudierten Filamentsträngen bleiben im Wesentlichen konstant, da durch die flüssige Farbe im Wesentlichen nur das visuelle Erscheinungsbild der Filamentstränge verändert wird.In the operating state, a mixed color of a

Die Betriebseinstellungen der Dosierpumpen und die Betriebseinstellungen der Spinnpumpen können alternativ oder gemeinsam verändert werden. Somit ergibt sich eine maximale Flexibilität in der visuellen Gestaltung eines Verbundfadens durch Farbkombinationen mehrerer Filamentbündel.To change the mixed color of the filament bundles 13.1, 13.2 and 13.3 formed
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren und die Erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung sind somit besonders geeignet, um spinngefärbte Verbundfäden und Mischfarben zu erzeugen.

So lässt sich der Verbundfaden auch durch zwei, vier oder mehr Filamentbündel bilden.The method according to the invention and the device according to the invention are therefore particularly suitable for producing spun-dyed composite threads and mixed colors. The number of filament bundles and device parts shown in the embodiments for extruding the filament bundles is exemplary. Thus, the composite thread can also be formed by two, four or more filament bundles.
