Definitions

  • a feed chamber containing means for determining the delivery rate of the material into the stretching chamber, the feed chamber also containing a fluid (generally air) under pressure, but less than the pressure in the stretching chamber.
  • a fluid generally air
  • the object of the present invention is to maintain the necessary pressure difference between the stretching chamber and the feed chamber, not only during the stretching operation proper but also during the starting-up operation.
  • the invention is also concerned to make the whole starting-up operation substantially automatic in character, and generally to reduc the difficulties attendant on bringing up the materials to the full degree of stretch.
  • a method of stretching materials-in the form of filaments or the admission of fluid to the other chamber so as to render the pressure in said other chamber dependent on th pressure in the first chamber and to maintain the desired difference in pressure both during the raising of the pressures to their working levels and during their maintename at those levels.
  • the medium supplied to the controlled chamber may be supplied through a valve actuated by a diaphragm communicating on one side with the pressure in the controlling chamber and on the other with the pressure in the controlled chamber.
  • a spring of predetermined strength co-operates with the diaphragm to determine the position of the valve, so that the difference in pressure on the two sides of the diaphragm is either balanced by the spring, or distorts the diaphragm and actuates the valve so as to change the pressure in the controlled chamber until the required pressure difference is obtained. Since, however, the pressure difl'erence desired between the two chambers is fixed by other considerations, it may not be of a. suitable magnitude to eflect the. control of the valve with the sensitivity required. Accordingly,
  • a controlled pressure from an independent supply of pressure fluid maintained at a constant difference from the pressure in one of the chambers, preferably the controlled chamber, the constant amount of diiference being conveniently adjustable so that the order of magnitude of the pressure difierence on the two sides of the diaphragm is appropriate to the characteristics
  • the controlled pressure required for this purpose may be provided for by allowing the independent supply to escape through a leak controlled by a valve actuated' bya further diaphragm, exposed onone side to the pressure in the chamber and on the other to the pressure between the valve and the leak, which latter pressure is also the controlled pressure required.
  • the further diaphragm is loaded by a spring, which may conveniently be made adjustable.
  • the leak may either be a fixed leak, or may be variable, being controlled by a further valve, mechanically coupled to work in the opposite sense to the first, and disposed in series therewith in the independent supply.
  • the invention has the big advantage of enabling the starting-up to be carried out very rapidly, and at the same time minimizes the danger of threadbreakage during starting-up and reducing the amount of waste produced in the interval before full stretch is reached.
  • the invention may be generally applied, by the selection of a suitable softening agent, to materials in the form of filaments or threads. It is particularly advantageous as applied to threads or bundles of continuous filaments of organic derivatives of, cellulose, such as the cellulose esters, e. g. cellulose acetate, formate, propionate and butyrate, mixed esters, e. g. cellulose acetatepropionate and aceto butyrate, and cellulose ethers, e. g. methyl, ethyl and benzyl cellulose.
  • cellulose esters e. g. cellulose acetate, formate, propionate and butyrate
  • mixed esters e. g. cellulose acetatepropionate and aceto butyrate
  • cellulose ethers e. g. methyl, ethyl and benzyl cellulose.
  • Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic view of the apparatus as-a whole, and
  • Figs. 2-4 are more detailed views of the steam supply valve, the air supply valve and the setting valve respectively, shown diagrammatically in Fi 1.
  • a number of threads I are taken from bobbins 2 mounted in a creel 3, are led through guide-eyes 4 in connection with the creel 3 and proceed from the guide-eyes 4 to a spacing comb 5. From the comb 5 the threads I enter a stretching apparatus of the general form described in U. S. Patent No. 2,142,909.
  • This comprises a feed chamber 5 having apertures I through which the threads enter and containing nip-rollers 8 by. means of which the rate at which the threads are drawninto the stretching apparatus is accurately controlled.
  • the threads I pass to a stretching chamber 9, entering through apertures I and leaving through apertures
  • the stretching chamber 9 is supplied through a pipe I2 with moist steam under pressure and the feed chamber Ii is supplied with compressed air through a pipe I3.
  • the compressed air in the chamber 6 is supplied at a pressure slightly lower than that of the steam in the chamber 9 and minimises the fiow of steam from the chamber 9 through the apertures I 0, so that the threads, softened in the chamber 9, are not broken by being blown back into the chamber 5.
  • a spiral spring l9 urges the compensator bar I6 in a counter-clockwise direction from above, and the pull of the threads I between the pulleys I4 and I5 initially counteracts the pressure of the spring I9.
  • the pulley I8 guides the rope of threads I to a conical roller made up of three parts 2
  • the part 22 is the conical part, and connects the parts 2
  • the length of the part 22 and the position of the point II are arranged,so that the pulley I8 is always close to one or other of the parts 2
  • Co-operating with the large part 23 'of the conical roller is a further roller 24 constituting, with the roller 23, a pair of nip-rollers similar to the rollers 8 in the chamber 6, beyond the rollers 23 and 24 there are a further comb 25,
  • the comb 21 and the mangle rollers28 are wider than the nip rollers 8 and 24, being of a size appropriate to the width of the take-up creel, the creel comprising ,a waste swift 29 and take-up bobbins 3
  • the steam is fed by the pipe I2 to the stretching chamber 9 through a steam valve 32 under the control of pressure-sensitive pressure controller, indicated generally at 33, operated by compressed air,
  • the steam valve 32 is adjusted, to maintain'a desired steam pressure in the steam chamber 9, by means of a spring-loaded diaphragm 34 subjected on one side to an air pressure supplied through the controller 33.
  • Air is supplied to the controller 33 at a pressure of 1'? pounds per square inch from the air supply main I3 and valves 35, 35 through a branch pipe 31 and a suitable reducing valve 38.
  • the air so supplied is able to pass through one valve 39 into a pipe 40 communicating with the diaphragm 34 of the steam valve, and is able to pass from the pipe 40 through another valve 4
  • controlling the air in this manner are coupled together by a member 43, so that as one opens the other is closed, and by these means the air pressure applied to the diaphragm 34 of the steam-controlling valve 32 is varied.
  • the pressure applied to the diaphragm 34 may be increased to any degree up to a limit of 17 pounds per square inch, while by closing the valve 39 and opening the valve 4
  • controlling the air is determined by the air pressure in a bellows 44, the bellows being in communication with an air line through which air from the supply at 1'7 pounds per square inch, after passing through a controlled leak to'the atmosphere.
  • a suitable fixed throttling device 59 escapes by The controlledleak is in the form of a nozzle from which the exit of the air is opposed by a pivoted flapper 52.

  • the flapper 52 is pivoted closer to the nozzle 5
  • the pressure in the bellows 44 in communication with the air line 45 is made to depend upon the pressure in the steam chamber 9, a high pressure in the steam chamber 9 increasing the pressure in the bellows 44, while a low pressure decreases the pressure in the bellows.
