Definitions

  • This invention relates to hollow spindles which, by rotatingl at a high speed, give a double-twist to the yarn.
  • theA balloon diameter rapidly becomes so large as to cause interference between the yarns of ⁇ two adjacent spindles if thespacing between the latter is not increased, such an increase not always being possible to realize and which, in any case, involves an increase of the requisite floorspace of the machine.
  • a control of the diameter of the balloon is effected by increasing the tension of the yarn by applying a braking action at a point positioned near the supply body, which tension must be increased With an increase in yarn thickness.
  • packages are obtained the hardness of which depends on the tension that is applied to the yarn.
  • a storing ring positioned at the exit end of the spindle on which ring the yarn is wound and from which it is unwound following instantaneous variations of the tension.
  • this winding brings about an increase in the total tension exerted cn the yarn.
  • thespindle of this invention is characterised by--fa continuous surface ⁇ which is exteriorA to the-yarn and ,Whichpro- Y tates concurrently with. the spindle so as to guide the yarn from the exit opening of the spindle to a point near the stationary yarn guide mounted in the axis of the spindle.
  • the guiding surface may consist of a flexible or rigid tube joined to the rotating spindle through which tube the yarn is threaded.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic representation of a device constructed according to this invention.
  • Figure 2 represents a horizontal or inclined spindle.
  • Figs. 3 and 4 respectively are side sectional and detail views of another embodimentJ of the invention.
  • the bobbin 'u is mounted on a carrier 'l supported by the spindle 3; the rotation of said bobbin being independent of that of the spindle due to the presence of bearings S.
  • the carrier 'l is rendered stationary by means of a balance weight 9.
  • the yarn l reeled-oi the bobbin is guided by spindle-cap IB. It enters the bore of the spindle 3 and leaves it through a side opening 5.
  • the yarn is then threaded into a flexible tube I l (corresponding to the surface 2 of Figure l) fixed at point I2 of the spindle il and at point E3 in a carrier rotating freely in the stationary yarn guide l in bearing ld.
  • the rotation of the tube is balanced by theA balance-weight l-l.
  • the position the yarn will 3 assume in the space is determined by the length given to the flexible tube.
  • Figures 3 and 4 illustrate the bobbin G mounted on a support 'I carried by the spindle 3, the former being independent of the movement of the latter by virtue of bearings 8.
  • the support 'I is immobilized by balance-weight 9.
  • the yarn I wound ofi the bobbin and guided by the spindle cap i enters the bore of the spindle 3 and leaves it through the side opening 5. It is then threaded into a rigid tube l'! (similar to the flexible tube Il, and corresponding to the surface 2 of Fig. 1) xed insidel a bowl I8 forming an integral part of the spindle 3; the yarn being thereby guided to the fixed yarn guide 4.
  • the device of the present invention affords a means to adjust, as desired, the hardness of the end package through any known thread tensioning device located at some point along, the course of; ,the yarn gui-de fixed to thel end package (not shown).
  • a device for limiting the size ofV the balloon of yarn in double-twist spindles comprising, in combination, a substantially cup-shaped vbody member iXedly connected at one end thereof to the, spindlev so as to rotate therewith and terminating at the other end thereof adjacent to a yarn guide, said body member having a curved inner surface formed and extending at least partially about the. axisv of rotation of the spindle ⁇ and the yarn, as it passes from the spindle to the yarn guide, bearing against said inner surface.
  • a device for limiting the ⁇ sizeof the balloon of yarn in double-twist spindles comprising, in combination, bodyA member having an inner oval-shaped surface symmetrically located about a longitudinal axis of the body member, said body member terminating at one end thereof adjacent to a yarn guide and being xedly connected at its other end to the spindle so that the body member rotates with the spindle and the yarn issuing from the spindle contacts the inner oval-shaped surface of the body member so as to be guided thereby and pass from said body member to said yarn guide, and the longitudinal axis of said body member coinciding with the axis of rotation of said spindle.
  • a device for limiting the size ofy the balloon of yarnV in double-twist spindles comprising, in combination, a substantially cylindrical hollow body member ⁇ having one end closed and the other; end open, said closed end being xedly connected to the spindle so that said body member rotates therewith and the longitudinal axis of said cylindrical body member coinciding with the axis of rotation of said spindle, whereby the yarn issuing from the spindle may be guided along the inner surface of the vcy-lindria 1 body member so as to thereby limit the sz of the balloon of yarn.
