Definitions
- This invention relates to a novel washing machine arrangement to be used in the washing and treating of spinning cakes, produced, in the artificial silk industry, by the centrifuge spinning process.
- the threads or filaments having been extruded into a suitable spinning medium, are led over a guide into a rotating pot.
- the bodies of thread thus produced are known as cakes.
- the cakes are then subjected to several chemical treatments such as desulphurizing, copper removal, bleaching, deacidifying, and sizing. These treatments are included in the so-called wet treatmen steps, and may be performed by drip washing, sprinkling or dipping.
- a still further object of this invention is to provide means whereby the carrier rods may be easily secured to the endless transporting belt or chain.
- Figure 1 is a diagrammatic View of the treating arrangement
- Figure 2 is a detailed fragmentary view of the unit showing the manner in which the skeins or cakes are mounted on the carrier rods;
- Figure 3 is a view showing one method of securing the skein carrier rods to the endless conveyor chain or belt;
- Figure 4 is a view of another method of securingthe skein carrier rods to the endless conveyor 0 chain or belt;
- Figure 5 is a detailed view of the endless conveyor chain or belt and showing the mechanism used to reverse the position of the skeins on the carrier rods;
- Figure 6 is a detailed view showmg a second method and mechanism of reversing the position of the skeins on the carrier rods.
- a skein treating unit through which the skeins 1, carried by the carrier rods. or sticks 2, are transported in a zig-zag manner by means of a pair of endless conveyor chains or belts 3.
- Each chain comprises a plurality of links secured together by means of bolts, 5.
- FIG. 3 there is shown one method of attaching these rods to the chains, and comprises a tube 4 having an opening 21, formed therein of such a size as to snugly receive the shank of the bolt.
- the tubes are s'ufiiciently Wide and deep so that the ends of the carrier rods can be very easily inserted therein.
- the bolt itself is provided with an opening 5 in which the end of the carrier rod fits.
- the endless conveyor chains or belts are driven by the sprockets 6 and 7 arranged in pairs.
- the corresponding sprockets are secured to the same drive shaft which passes through the machine in a longitudinal direction. All of the connecting drive shaftsof the individual sprocket pairs maybe driven by any suitable source of power, or only the shafts in the upper part of the unit need be driven.
- FIG. 6 there is shown a modified form of mechanism for'use in reversing the position of the skeins on theca'rrier rods.
- This mechanism comprises two parallel boards 10 and 11 secured to correspondingly shaped members 10 and 11 of a cylindrical member secured to a shaft 9. These boards are positioned tangentially to the said shaft. During the gradual movement of the chain wheels 6 the rising cakes or skeins are caught flat by one of the boards 10, lifted up and then dropped onto the carrier rod after they have been turned through an angle of 180.
- This mechanism as clearly shown by Figures 1, 2 and 5 comprises a pair of rods 12 and 13 located .on either side of the conveyor chains or belts. Positioned above this pair is a second pair 14 and 15.
- the cakes 1a supported on the carrier rods, and still having their round form, pass first upon the movement of the conveyor chain or belt between the first pair of rods 12 and 13 by means of which they are partially compressed into skein form as shown at lb. Further movement of the conveyor chain or belt moves the partially compressed cakes through the upper pair of rods which imparts to them the final skein form 10. It is obvious, however, that this compression of the cakes into skein form may be accomplished by using only one pair of rods, but the use of two pairs of rods, located as described, prevents or aids in the prevention of any injury to the threads making up the cake.
- the treating liquids are brought into contact with the skeins by means of suitable spraying nozzles 18 and 19 located at convenient points in the system.
- Containers 20 are positioned below the skeins to collect the used treating liquids.
- the spraying nozzles can be so arranged on the extension over the cakes that the treating liquids may fall from one series of cakes to another, or the spinning cakes can be dipped in troughs containing treating liquids placed below the turning points of the endless conveyor.
- the present invention is more particularly adapted to handle cakes formed .by the potspinning process during the wet treatment thereof, it is not limited to such use but may be employed for handling skeins of yarn during the wet treatment thereof which may be produced by methods other than the pot-spinning process.
- a pair of endless conveyor chains mounted for movement in a treating unit for. skeins, aligned holding means carried by said chains, carrier rods positioned in said holding means, and means to reverse the position of the skeins on said carrier rods located at intervals throughout the unit.
- a pair of endless conveyor chains mounted for movement in a treating unit for skeins, aligned holding means carried by said chains, carrier rods positioned in said holding means, means to reverse the position of the skeins located at intervals throughout the unit, said means comprising cylindrical members adapted to engage the skeins.
- a pair of endless conveyor chains for skeins for skeins, sprockets engaging the said chains, and so located as to lead the chains in a zig-zag path throughout the unit, shafts for rotating said sprockets, and means secured to certain of said shafts for reversing the position of the skeins.
- a treating unit upper and lower drive shafts rotatably mounted therein, a pair of sprockets attached to each shaft, a pair of endless conveyor chains driven by said sprocket and adapted to carry skeins, the arrangement beinyg such as to move the said chains in a zig-zag path through the unit, and means mormted on an upper shaft adapted to reverse the position of the skeins as they pass thereover.
- a treating unit upper and lower drive shafts rotatabiy mounted therein, a pair of sprockets attached to each shaft, a pair of endless conveyor chains driven by said sprocket and adapted to carry skeins, the arrangement being such as to move the said chains in a zigzag path through the unit, and means mounted on an upper shaft adapted to reverse the position of the skeins as they pass thereon, said means comprising a pair of parallel boards mounted tangentially to the shaft.
- a pair of endless conveyor chains rods adapted to carry cakes secured thereto at spaced intervals, and means to compress the cakes to skein form comprising a first pair of rods and a second pair of rods located thereabove between which the said conveyor ADOLF RiiscH.
