Definitions

  • An aspect of the present invention relates to a yarn joining processing device and a yarn feeding device.
  • Patent Literature 1 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. H07-68010 discloses a false-twist texturing machine including a yarn feeding stand which holds a plurality of yarn feeding packages and a false-twist texturing device which false-twists yarns fed from the yarn feeding packages.
  • a yarn feeding stand which holds a plurality of yarn feeding packages and a false-twist texturing device which false-twists yarns fed from the yarn feeding packages.
  • a yarn joining process tail joining process which connects the synthetic yarn of the yarn feeding package supported by one peg to the synthetic yarn of the yarn feeding package supported by the other peg is performed. Accordingly, since the synthetic yarn is fed from the other yarn feeding package even when the synthetic yarn of one yarn feeding package disappears, the synthetic yarn can be continuously fed to the false-twist texturing device.
  • yarns are respectively drawn out from two yarn feeding packages and these yarns are connected by a splicer.
  • the yarn portion connecting the yarn feeding packages is in a considerably loosened state. If one of the yarn feeding packages is emptied in this state, a local load may be applied to a part of the yarn portion when the yarn portion loosened between the packages is sent toward a processing portion or the yarn portion may come into contact with peripheral parts to cause yarn damage or breakage.
  • an operator locks the yarn portion between the packages to a locking portion provided at a predetermined position of a yarn feeding stand after the yarn connection using the splicer and removes slack by turning one or both yarn feeding packages in the yarn drawing direction in the locked state.
  • an object of an aspect of the present invention is to provide a yarn joining processing device and a yarn feeding device capable of realizing automation of a series of operations including a yarn joining process and a yarn hooking process while maintaining both yarn quality and improving operation accuracy.
