Definitions

  • Fig. 3 being a side elevation of the final end part of the machine.
  • the fabric will adhere to the rubber belt surface, and be compressed lengthwise progressively with the contracting belt surface, because of the higher frictional resistance between the belt and web than between the web and the heated drum.
  • the surface of the main drum is polished and heated so that it acts like the ironing surface of an ordinary laundry iron, which has relatively low frictional resistance between the drum or ironing surface and the web. Consequently the web will slow down with the belt, and as the stretched surface of the belt passes the nip, and becomes concave, the web will contract with the belt and slide on the periphery of the main drum. Since the fibers of the web yarns are plastic at the time the heat is transmitted to the web by the drum, the heat will set a crimp in the yarns after the latter have been pushed together by contraction of the portion of the belt surface with which the web was in contact.
  • Cloth shrinking and finishing apparatus comprising a pair of intake feed rolls between which is passed a woven fabric web to be shrunk and finished, means for driving said rolls selectively at any one of a plurality of different speeds, a moisture conditioner disposed to receive said web from said rolls, pass it, and moisten it while so passing, a stretcher device disposed to receive and pass the moisture conditioned web from said conditioner, and during the passing pull the web laterally to a desired width, and deliver it at that width, a relatively large, heated, cylindrical drum mounted for rotation about its longitudinal axis in a position adjacent the delivery end of said stretcher device, a relatively thick, endless, resilient rubber belt extending partially around the periphery of the drum in contact therewith, an intake roller disposed alongside the drum, mounted for rotation on its longitudinal axis which is parallel to the longitudinal axis of said drum, and feeding said belt to said drum between them, idler rollers disposed to guide said belt, as it leaves said drum, back to and over said intake roller, means for shifting said intake roller toward and from
  • a process for continuously shrinking and finishing a woven textile fabric web which comprises feeding said web linearly and continuously in an endwise direction at a selected linear speed, conditioning the moving web so fed as to moisture content to render plastic the fibers of its yarns, then overshrinking lengthwise, by compressive shrinking, the moving, moisture conditioned web while the web is confined between a smooth, heated surface and an elastic, rubber surface, flashing oif considerable moisture from the shrunk web, and then continuously stretching the moving shrunk web lengthwise sufliciently to approximately eliminate the overshrinkage of the web, and progressively drying the shrunk web, while it is free of any added moisture.
