' APPARATUS FOR THE FLUID TREATMENT OF YARNS ADD THE LIKE Filed Feb. 22, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE APPARATUS FOR THE FLUID TREATMENT OF YARNS AND THE LIKE Alvin Lodge, Detroit, Mich., assignor to American Viscose Corporation, Wilmington, Del., a corporation of Delaware Application February 22,1944, Serial No. 523,393
8 Claims. 1
vapor, in a deflnite space or channel and for passing continuously through that space the yarn or other article to be treated while avoiding any appreciable loss in the fluid through the yarn entrance and exit passages so that the conditions of treatment within the space can be readily maintained substantially uniform. Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the drawing and the description thereof in which:
Figure 1 is an end elevation of one embodiment of the invention,
Figure 2 is a perspective view of one side plate and the bottom of the device in upright position,
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the other side plate in reclining position, and
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the flexible elastic sealing member.
As shown, the device comprises side walls 2 and 3 supported upon a base 4 tov which they are secured by the bolts 5 and nuts 6. One of the walls 2 has a recess 2a Within its face and the other wall 3 is provided with a sloped surface I to which a flexible, elastic sealingmember 8.,
is secured adjacent one of its edges ill by any suitable means, such as by the machine screws 9. The flexible elastic sealing member which may be made of rubber or a synthetic rubber is so shaped that, when the device is assembled, the flexible member is inclined at any desired angle inwardly of the normal or perpendicular from its fixed edge in to the bearing surfaceoi wall 2 with its free sealing edge I! in contact against the wall 2. Preferably the bearing portion of wall 2 which the free edge contacts is substantiall flat or plane. The end edges]! of the sealing member flt tightly against the top surface of the base 4 or may be secured thereto. Conduits may be provided to supplyand remove the gas or vapor or other fluid. As shown, pipe '13 serves to supply the fluid and pipe 14 serves as a. discharge conduit. The sealing face of the wall 2 may be rigid or it may beiaced with a robbery material capable'of undergoing some flexing when the material passes through the device. I
The device may serve for the treatment of any 2 continuous material of indefinite length which has at least one relatively small transverse dimension, such as a thin sheet, ribbon or strip, or which has two such small dimensions, such as afllament, yarn, wire, coated wire or the like. For example, the device may be used to subject yarns, strips and the like of any material, such as regenerated cellulose, cellulose acetate, vinyl resins, such as polyvinyl chlorides or the copolymers of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate or the after-chlorinated vinyl polymer or copolymers to hot water, steam, superheated steam, hot air, or to heated vapors of swelling or softening agents, such as glycerine, acetone, dibutyl sebacate and the like.
The strand or strip material may be inserted into operative relation with the device merely by forcinga portion of its length down past the upper portion of the free edge ll of the sealing member into the position shown in Figure 1 where X designates the cross-section of the article being treated. The pressure of the gas or vapor within the chamber formed by the base 4, side walls 2 and 3, and the sealing member 8 serves to distend the sealin member and maintain a tight seal with a minimum loss of the treating medium at the point of entrance and exit of the continuously running article X.
While the drawing shows an embodiment in which the space or chamber for treating fluid between the two rigid side walls 2 and 3 is confined by a rigid base and a three-walled flexible sealing member, other arrangements may be provided, it being only necessary that there be a flexible wall portion at the points of entrance and exit of the article which is continuously guided therethrough for treatment. As one alternative, the flexible top wall as viewed in Figure 1 may be replaced with a rigid wall'similar to the base 4, the opposite flexible walls being shaped to fit in firm sealing engagement; with both the base and top. As another alternative,
the flexible sealing member maytake the form of a continuous annular membrane conforming to the peripheral surface of a frustum of a cone, the free edge being the smaller of the two circular edges. 7
