Definitions

  • This invention relates to dyeing methods and apparatus.
  • An important ob]ect of the invention is to provide for the random-dyeing of artificial silk thread in skein'form, but many features of the invention are of general application in the dyeing of absorbent,
  • spaced portions of one or more skeins are compressed between perforated plates, while the intermediate parts of the skein or skeins not to be colored are tightly clamped between imperforate members.
  • The. portions of the skein or skeins clamped between the perforated plates are then dyed by passing dye through each of "v them from one plate to the other.
  • Different colored dyes may be applied to the parts of. the skein or skeins held between different so that the air or gas forces the dye lnto and or gas pressure to the limited quant1t of dye, e

  • the skeins are spread out lengthwise in the box-like lower block 20, while this block is down against thetable 11, as shown in Fig. 1, and the block 20 is then raised to clamp these skeins between the blocks 20 and 40.
  • four spacedportions A, B, C, D, of the skeins are compressed between the pairs of perforated plates 35, 45.
  • the intermediate parts E of the skeins are tightly clamped between the ribs 36 and the grooves 46, while the ends F of the skeins are clamped .between the extreme end portions of the blocks. This has the effect of forming the skeins into a plurality of compressed masses separated by packings provided by thestill more compressed intermediate parts of the skeins themselves.
  • the machine includes means for passing limited quantities of different colored dyes through the compressed masses A, B, C, D,
  • the recesses 44a, 446, 440, 44d of the upper block are connected with measuring cups 50a, 506, 50c, 50d, by means of fixed conduits 51, communicating with bores 52 in the block 40.
  • Eachof the measuring cups ' has at its bottom, an outlet opening 53, communicating with one of the conduits 51, and a lateral intake opening 54, connected by a pipe 55 with a three-way Valve 56.
  • the outlet opening 53 is controlled by an outwardly opening valve 57 normally closed by a spring 58.

  • Each of the three-way valves 56 is connected by a pipe 63 with the lower part of one of the dye reservoirs 14a, 146, 140, 14d, Iand, by a. branch pipe 64, with a conduit 65 leading from a supply of compressed air or other gas.
  • the operating arms 66 of the four three-way valves are connected to a common handle rod 67, which is normally held by means of a spring 68 in-position to connect the intake openings of all .the measuring cups with their dye reservolrs.
  • the air flowing into the measuring cups under pressure starts to flow out through the air vent openings 60 so rapidly that it raises the lalls 62 against their seats 62 and cuts off these openings.
  • the dye from the measuring cups 50a, 506, 50c, 50d therefore falls into and fills the recesses 44a, 446, 44o, 44d in the upper block 40, and comes into contact with the upper surface of the compressed masses A, B, C, D, through the perforations in the plates 45.
  • the excess dye and the air passes out of the compressed masses through the plates 35, into the recesses 34a, 346, 340, 34d, of the lower block 20, from which the excess dye and air escape through discharge nipples 70, extend ing through the bottom of the block 2O and through the plate 22.
  • the excess dye falling from the nipples 70 is caught in conical cups 71, formed in the table 11. These cups are connected by four separate drain pi es 72a, 726, 72e, 72d, with separate receptacles (not pipes.
  • the handle 67 After the flow of air has removed the eX- cess dye from the compressed masses, which takes only a few moments, the handle 67 is allowed to return to its normal position, cutting off the flow of air to the measuring cups,
  • the lower block 20 and plate 22 are then brought down' against the table 1l by turning the hand wheel 30 so that the dyed skeins ⁇ may beY removedy from the block 20 and re# placed by skeins to be dyed.
