  • the softening medium is under pressure in a chamber through which the thread passes in order to be stretched, provision may be made to prevent rapid flow of the softening mediumin adirection opposite to the direction of travel of the thread as it enters the chamber, and also to reduce leakage of the softening medium.

  • the threads as fast as they are fed to it and twists them as they are so collected.
  • This is particularly advantageous in the initiation of the stretching operation because, as the softening medium is applied to the threads and the stretching of the threads is initiated the twisting and winding devices may be arranged to take up the threads at an increasing rate as the softening and increase of stretch proceed.
  • the tension applied by the twisting and winding dvice may be utilised to bring about stretching to 4' a degree which increases as the softness of the threads increases during the initial application of the softeningmedium, and when the stretch has been brought, in this manner, u-p to or nearly up to the degree desired, the threads may be placed under the positive control of stretching means such as rollers, which thereafter accurately determine the degree of stretch imparted and feed the threads to the twisting and winding device by which they are then collected.

  • This is made possible by the fact that a twisting and winding device will collect the thread reaching it at a low rate or at a high rate without any adjustment of the spindle speed, the thread collected at ⁇ a low rate merely being more highly twisted than that collected at the'high rate.
