Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an elastic string or the like, from an assembly of at least two basic threads made of fibers and / or filaments.
  • string is not limiting and refers to any linear textile product, of any size or title (from a millimeter to a few centimeters), obtained from an assembly of at least two basic yarns made of fibers and / or filaments, in any natural material (animal and / or vegetable and / or mineral) and / or chemical (synthetic and / or artificial), called according to the applications: thread, string, cord, rope, etc. ., and used in any type of application such as industry, furniture, boating, agri-food, medical, etc.
  • Elasticity is defined in the following way: it is the quality of an object to be deformable while resuming its original form when the constraint applied to it disappears.
  • the final elasticity of the product depends on the elasticity of the yarn used and its manufacturing process. Some synthetic or artificial fibers have their own elasticity. But for natural fibers, the elasticity is limited or even zero.
  • the present invention provides a solution for providing elasticity to the final product made from any type of fibers and / or filaments, including from natural fibers.
  • publications are known BE 621 724 A and DE 29 28 692 A an elastic string obtained by twisting together at least two base yarns previously over-twisted in one direction "S" for one and in the other direction "Z” for the other, and then subjecting them to a heat treatment for to stabilize their torsion.
  • Some elastic strings are also manufactured by wrapping, an example of which is illustrated in the publication EP 1 746 189 A1 .
  • Grape wrapping is a method of assembling a core wire with a wire wrapped around the core wire which is called a wire wrapper.
  • the core wire is a spandex, latex or similar yarn, of fairly large size (about 2 mm in diameter), and is coated with one or more cotton or polyester threads. .
  • This manufacturing process is controlled and the production yield is high. Thus, the product obtained is cheap.
  • wrapping has major disadvantages.
  • the core wire is not integral with the coating wire. In fact, when the elastic gimped string is cut, it is common that the ends fray or loosen, leaving apparent the core thread.
  • a particular case concerns the use of a gimped elastic string in the food industry, particularly for tying meat pieces, such as paupiettes, roasts, poultry, etc., to ensure the maintenance of different pieces of meat, decoration, stuffing, etc. during cooking.
  • meat pieces such as paupiettes, roasts, poultry, etc.
  • the meat can shrink and the string used must be able to follow the retraction of the piece of meat while keeping it tight.
  • the elastic gimped string retracts rapidly and causes splashes of cooking juices, sauce and the like, in its environment.
  • This disadvantage does not exist with a traditional non-elastic string. But in this case, the traditional non-elastic string does not ensure effective maintenance of the piece of meat throughout its cooking and is difficult to mechanize. It must be placed manually to avoid cutting the meat in case of automatic break.
  • the present invention aims to provide a solution to the problems mentioned above by proposing a method of manufacturing an elastic string without elastane or latex, having a high power of retraction and whose elasticity is controllable and can be stabilized or even neutralized under certain conditions to avoid the disadvantages mentioned above.
  • the invention relates to a method of manufacture of the kind indicated in the preamble, in which an over-twist is applied in one direction (in S) to a first base wire and an over-twist in the other direction ( in Z) to a second base wire, the over-twist of said base wires is fixed to stabilize them, said base wires are assembled to form said string so that when said string is in the free state without traction, said Over-twisted base wires tend to deviate from the longitudinal axis of the string and to orient towards an axis perpendicular to said longitudinal axis of the string.
  • this manufacturing process makes it possible to impart great elasticity to the twine made by combining an over-twist of the base yarns with a particular assembly of these basic yarns, without the addition of elastane or latex, the elongation at the rupture obtained which may be at least between 20% and 150%.
  • base wires whose title is relatively thin and at least between Nm150 and Nm17 (or between 6 tex and 60 tex).
  • T k ⁇ Nm, where T is the value of the twist in r / m and Nm is the metric number of the yarn, a high torsion coefficient k is advantageously chosen between at least 200 and 600 .
  • More than two basic threads can be used to make said string.
  • the over-twist on said base yarns may be fixed by a vaporizing process or any other equivalent method.
  • the base yarns are assembled by a braiding process to make a braided string.
  • at least four basic yarns and a braiding machine are used, and the over-twisted basic yarns are arranged in a first direction (in S) on the bobbin of the braiding machine going counter-clockwise and the basic yarns over-twisted in the other direction (Z) on the spindles of the braiding machine going clockwise.
  • the basic son is arranged on at least one spindle out of two.
  • the invention also relates to an elastic string obtained by the manufacturing method as described above, characterized in that it comprises a braided assembly of at least four basic threads made of fibers and / or filaments, two first base yarns with one-twist in one direction (S) and two second-yarns with an over-twist in the other direction (Z), the fibers and / or filaments of the basic yarns forming a angle ( ⁇ ) of at least 30 ° to 90 ° to the longitudinal axis of each base wire; and the base wires departing from the longitudinal axis of the braid and orienting in the direction of an axis perpendicular to that axis.
  • the process according to the invention makes it possible to manufacture a string 10 or any similar product such as thread, cord, rope, etc., from an assembly of at least two base yarns 20 and 30, themselves made of fibers and / or filaments 40, the twine 10 obtained having high elastic properties, moreover controllable, without using elastane, latex or the like.
  • the number of basic threads is not limited to two and it is of course possible to manufacture a string according to the invention from an assembly of several basic threads.
  • an even number of base yarns are preferred and split into two equal parts to balance the number of over-twisted S-baseline yarns and the number of basic yarns.
  • the over-twist value applied to each of the basic threads may be the same or different depending on the desired results. Of course, any combination of basic threads in quality, number, value of torsion, etc. is possible.
  • the twist of the wire can be carried out in the S direction or in the Z direction (cf. Fig. 1 and 2 ).
  • the figure 3 illustrates the curve of the tensile strength (R) of the yarn as a function of its torsion value (T). There is a saturating twist (Ts) where the tensile strength is the highest. Beyond this, the tensile strength of the wire drops to the critical twist (Tc) where the wire breaks.
  • Ts saturating twist
  • twisting the resulting yarn is called twisted yarn or double-stranded or stranded or multi-stranded wire or ends.
  • the main effect of the twisting is to obtain a wire of larger diameter whose fibers are parallel and oriented along the longitudinal axis of the wire.
  • the final twist value is calculated from the same Koechlin formula given previously.
  • the spinner selects a torsion coefficient (k) so that the yarn obtained is balanced and has no tendency to twist.
  • k torsion coefficient
  • twisted twisted yarns 20, 30 are made on conventional twists capable of working on fine threads or small titles. Indeed, if the over-twisted yarn is large, especially greater than about 100 tex, the twist will be only superficial and will not reach the fibers in the heart of the yarn.
  • the torsion should preferably apply to fine threads, especially less than about 100 tex, and for example son having a metric number (Nm) of 50 which equals 20 tex.
  • Nm metric number
  • a torsion coefficient k of 425 would be a good compromise and would give good elasticity.
  • a twist of 2100tr / m is obtained for a twisted yarn at two ends, each of Nm50 is 20 tex, to finally obtain a thread of Nm 25 or 40tex, and a twist of 1750tr. / m for a twisted yarn with three ends each of Nm50 to finally obtain a thread of Nm16 or 60 tex.
  • This torsion can correspond to the saturating torsion Ts which is the optimal torsion (cf. Fig. 3 ) or approaching it.
  • the values mentioned above are not limiting and may vary depending on the title of the wire or the material used, or even depending on the application with a wire having the same or similar characteristics.
  • the over-twisted base yarns are nervous and tend to twist.
  • the over-torsion of the basic threads 20, 30 is fixed by any known method.
  • a steaming method will be chosen in an autoclave at a temperature of 90 ° C. for a determined time equal, for example, to 20 minutes.
  • these values are not limiting and are only mentioned by way of example.
  • step 2 when the over-torsion of the base son is fixed, they are assembled in particular by a braiding process to manufacture a braided string. Any other equivalent assembly process may also be suitable.
  • the spindles of the braiding machine being clockwise are equipped with S-shaped bobbins 3 and the counter-clockwise bobbins are equipped with Z-twisted yarn bobbins 2.
  • the braided string 1 obtained by the method classic has little or no elasticity.
  • the base yarns 20, 30 have a tendency to deviate from the longitudinal axis A of the braided twine and to orient towards an axis perpendicular to this axis, forming an angle ⁇ with the longitudinal axis A braided twine 10 greater than that of a conventional braided twine, for example beyond 30 ° and between 30 ° and 90 °.
  • This phenomenon is visible on Figures 4 and 5 which make it possible to compare the same braided string by a traditional braiding process at the place and by the process of the invention in reverse.
  • the same string we mean the same nature of base son, the same value of torsion, the same speed of braiding, the same number of crosses per centimeter, the same speed of traction of the braid.
  • the base yarns 20 and 30 and the fibers and / or filaments 40 will tend to regain their preferred orientation, that given by the over-torsion for the fibers and / or filaments 40 and that given by the inverted braiding, resulting in a high elasticity, which can reach at least between 20% and 150% elongation at break and for example 100% elongation.
  • the braiding angle or the number of centimeter crossings can be varied while maintaining the elasticity characteristics of the braided twine obtained.
  • Additional elasticity can be achieved by releasing the over-twisting of the basic yarns 20, 30. Depending on the needs of the end user, this release may be revealed at the end of the process or during use (see example given below).
  • base yarns made of twisted cotton fibers are used at two ends of Nm50 each with an over-twist of 2100 rpm.
  • Half of the base wires are applied with an S-twist and at the other half with Z-over-torsion.
  • the over-torsion is fixed on all of the base wires with steam at 90 ° C. in an autoclave for 20 minutes.
  • Braided basic threads are then assembled on a conventional small-diameter braiding machine with a capacity of sixteen reels, thus provided with sixteen spindles.
  • One spindle out of two is used.
  • the four S-coils are installed on the spindles of the braiding machine which rotate counter-clockwise and the four Z-coils are installed on the spindles in a clockwise direction - cf. fig.2 and 5 .
  • the braided twine thus obtained has a natural elasticity of 120%, in particular allowing it to be used on automatic machines to tie the pieces of meat.
  • This string has a good cohesion and can be cut without fray. The ends can be knotted easily by hand or by automatic machine.
  • the string When the string is wrapped around the piece of meat, she marries and firmly holds the piece of meat without cutting it.
  • the water vapor present in the oven releases the remaining voltage contained in the over-twisted base wires 20, 30.
  • the string 10 retracts and thus accompanies the narrowing of the piece of meat.
  • the string 10 loses its nervousness, so its elasticity. When cut, it behaves like ordinary string without elasticity and causes no splashing.
