  • This advantage is particularly evident when the cakes H are not wrapped in fabric or other protective coverings during the liquid treating operation.
  • An especial advantage or the reversed end to-end arrangement, shown in Figure 8a is that by such structure uniform feed of water to the several rayon packages may be more certainly assured.
  • the pressure cit-"the treating liquid might in some instances be strong enough so as to carry the treating liquid too rapidly by the ports 46 of the lower inserts 51 and ac to permit these lower ports to pass their suitable share or the treating liquid, and so the lower cakes l4 would not be emciently liquid-treated.

  • the fabric wrapping 55 when initially placed upon the package is loose enough so as to permit the package ll to expand under the liquid treatment without a movement of the wrapping 55, or a shifting thereof, over the package surface.
  • the covering 55 is particularly of advantage, when liquid treating packages it according to my improved process with package supporting apparatus which form recesses, such as the openings 23, Figures 1 and 14, wherein the thread of the package i4 might become disarranged or en'- tangled during processing, since the covering 55 prevents such disarrangement or entanglement of the thread in these openings.

  • a process of treating a thread of fine filamentous character in annular package form consisting in mounting a spun rayon package so that the same is free, under liquid treatment, to increase its wall thickness and decrease its density, by expanding inwardly and uniformly from end to end, and providing package-relocating accommodations adapted to seat the ends and inner face of the package when expanded, such package-relocating accommodations limiting the inward expansion of the package to an amount less than would cause the washing down of the package and the dislocation of the thread layers, and then floating the package in, and by the action of a treating liquid applied thereto under pressure.
