Definitions

  • the cake may be deformed into any suitable shape, for example the cake may be pressed on the outside inwardly towards the centre ring at four more or less equidistant points approximately corresponding to the four points of the compass the extent to which the thread is pressed in being such thatwhen the thread contracts on drying, it is able to take up a new position without being placed under undue tension.
  • our invention is not restricted to deforming the cake in any particular manner such for example as that just described, as the invention is intended to cover all methods of deforming the cake which permit the thread being dried at all parts of the cake without being placed under undue tension.
  • the cake may be pressed in by the fingers, but we prefer to employ a suitable apparatus by which the deformation of the cake can be easily and rapidly effected, and will tend to give more uniform results.
  • this invention is applicable to cakes of artificial silk which have been subjected to other processes as well as that of merely washing to remove harmful impurities such for example as the sulphiding or bleaching treatment.
  • Figure 1 shews in elevation, partly in section, one construction of apparatus and Figures 2 and 3 shew in horizontal sections, taken on the line m, m, Figure 1, the position of parts before and after deformation of the cake, respectively.
  • Figure 4 shews in elevation, partly in section, a modified construction of apparatus to that shown in Figure 1
  • Figures 5 and 6 are plans shewing the position of parts before and after deformation of the cake, re-
  • Movable rods D constituting an outer set and each of which is attached by a spring E to a central holder F, are arranged intermediate of and between the fixed rods B of the inner set but situated on the outer periphery of the cake A.
  • the set of outer rods D are caused, by forcing downwardly a slidable ring G, encircling the said rods, to move along grooves H in the base plate C towards the axis of the cake A thus pressing the cake in at four points more, or less equidistant along the periphery thereoff, until the pressed-in portions of the cake are each about one inch from the central axis, as shewn in Figure 3.
  • the slidable ring G is then raised, the set of outer rods D together with the central holder F, are lifted from the deformed cake A and the inner set of rods B are removed from the-sockets in the base plate 0, whereupon the said deformed cake can be transferred to the drying oven.
  • outside yarn of the cake A is now free to contract, and during the drying the indentations formed in the said cake become less pronounced.
  • Example 2 The modified apparatus shewn in Figures 4, 5, 6 and 7 is provided with two sets of movable rods, the rods B of one set being situated inside the cake A, and the rods D of the other set being situated outside the cake, and during the deformation of the said cake the inner set of rods B move away from, and the outer set of rods D move towards, the central axis of the said cake.
  • the rods of both sets are hinged at their lower ends, to the base plate C, while towards their upper ends the said rods ass through elongated openings j in a plat orm J, upon which the cake A to be deformed is placed.
  • a slidable ring G secured to a central disc K by connecting pieces 71: is situated as shewn at the lower ends ofthe sets of rods, and can be.
  • the inner set of rods B may be encircled by a rubber rin or band, and the upper end of each of the ro s D constitutin the outer set, may be connected by a spring to an outer part of the said platform.
  • Apparatus for deforming cakes of artificial threads filaments and the like obtained by the box spinning process comprising a set of movable rods adapted to engage the outer periphery of a cake and means for moving the said rods towards the centre of the said cake so that the shape of the said cake is deformed.
  • Apparatus for deforming cakes of artificial threads filaments and the like obtained by the box spinning process comprising an outer set of movable rods and an 1nner set of movable rods between which two sets a cake is placed and means for moving the said outer set of rods towards the centre of the said cake and for moving the said inner set of rods in the opposite direction so that the shape of the said cake is deformed.
