  • the invention is shown as comprising a pair of feed rolls 10 and 11 which are adapted to feed continuous filament tow or yarn 12 into a sleeve 14, shown as loosely mounted in a bore 15 in a housing 16.
  • the housing 16 is provided with an internal passage 17 forming a jacket communicating with pipes 18 and 19 for the circulation of heating fluid.
  • the housing 16 and sleeve 14 may have passages 9 for the injection of a heating fluid or setting fluid such as steam into the sleeve.
  • the housing 16 may be electrically heated as by Calrods if desired.
  • Feed rolls 10 and 11 are shown as mounted on shafts 20v and 21 respectively and driven by meshing gears 22. and 23 respectively.
  • the shaft 21 is mounted in a fixed healing carried by a frame 24 which also carries the housing 16.
  • the shaft 2% is journaled in a bearing 25. carried by an arm 26 which is pivoted at 27 to the frame 24 and is spring-pressed by spring 28 seated against a disc 29 held on an adjusting screw 30 threaded into a fixed ear 31 attached to the frame 24.
  • the spring 28 is adapted to hold the roll 10 in pressure engagement with the filament passing between the rolls 10 and 11 and the teeth on the gears 22 and 23 are sufficiently deep to remain in mesh when the roll 10 is retracted in response to the passage of the filament.
  • the roll 10 may be loaded hydraulically or weighted for gravity loading if desired.
  • the sleeve is formed with a bore 13 which may be circular in cross section or of any other desired cross section and may be tapered, and carries at its lower end a saddle 35 having a bore 36 which may be square in cross section as shown in Fig. 8, the diagonals of which conform in diameter to the circular bore 13 in the sleeve 14 and the sides of which join the circular bore 13 smoothly without sharp bends or corners which might restrict the feed of the yarn from the saddle to the bore 13.
  • the bore 36 of the saddle 35 has been shown as square for ease of construction only. Obviously the bore 36 may be circular or any other desired shape and may form a continuation of the bore 13 if desired.

  • the curved surfaces 38 of the saddle 35 intersect the bore 36 at edges 40 which are rounded so as to avoid corners or sharp edges which might damage the filaments.
  • the sleeve 14 is so designed that the saddle 35 rests lightly upon the rolls 10 and 11 and is free to be retracted from the rolls a limited distance, such as a few thousandths ofan inch, in response to the pressure of the material which is packed into the crimping chamber by the feed rolls.
  • the sleeve 14 also fits within the bore 15 of the housing 16 with a sufiicient clearance to permit a limited amount of lateral movement in all directions. Hence the entire sleeve 14 is floating and is free for limited vertical and lateral movement in response to the pressure and distribution of the material therein.
  • the crimped material within the bore 13 is held compacted by a plunger 45 which fits loosely within the bore 13 and rests upon the packed material therein.
  • the plunger 45 is shown as extending upwardly beyond the sleeve 14 and is provided with removable weights 46 which may be applied as desired in accordance with the pressure which is to be exerted upon the packed material within the bore 13.
  • the plunger 45 is provided with :a pin 47 which engages an arm 48 which is adapted to actuate a microswitch 49 for the purpose to be described.
  • the microswitch 49 is mounted on a bracket 50 which is secured to the frame 24.
  • the plunger 45 fits within the sleeve 14 with suificient clearance to permit the passage of the crimped tow or yarn 53 therebetween, but sufiiciently closely to form a friction device for eliminating slubs or snarls.
  • the result may also be obtained by forming the plunger with a central bore of suitable size to pass the crimped tow or yarn. The crimped tow or yarn thus passes over the upper edge of the sleeve 14 to take-up rolls 54 by which it is withdrawn from the bore 13.
  • the take-up rolls 54 are shown as also mounted on the brackets 50 and are connected to be driven by shaft 55 at a speed which has a predetermined ratio to the speed of the feed rolls. 10 and 11.
  • the feed and takeup rolls may be driven by separate motors 56 and 57 respectively or may be coupled together and driven by a single motor.
  • the microswitch 49 is connected by leads 58 in a circuit to control the operation of the driving motor 56 for the feed rolls 10 and 11 or the driving motor 57 for the take-up rolls 54, or may be connected in other ways to control the relative quantity of material withdrawn from the bore 13.
  • the switch may of course be replaced by other proportional means to vary the drive toone set of rolls as a function of the elevation of the plunger 45.
  • a guide tube 60 is provided having at its upper end curved surfaces 61 which conform to the surfaces of the feed rolls and 11 and which serve to guide and center the filament 12 with respect to the feed rolls.
  • the guidetube 69 is provided with a transverse slot 62 th'roug'h which the filament may be inserted.
  • the filament is tensioned by a spring-tension device comprising a pair of discs 65 which are spring-pressed by a spring 66.
  • the tube 69 is mounted on a bracket 67 which is slidably se-' cured in the frame 24 by screws 69.
  • the disc 65 and spring 66 are mounted on an arm 68 which is pivoted on the bracket 67 for adjustment about the axis of the tube 60.
  • a threading plunger 70 is provided which fits within the bore of the guide tube 60 and is held in its retracted position by a spring 71.
  • the plunger 70 is provided'at its upper end with a tapered portion 73 forming an edge 75 and has side. grooves 74 for the yarn and a keyway 76 engaged by a key 77 to maintain the edge 75 in proper alignment with respect to the bite of the rolls 10 and 11.
  • the plunger 76 is of a length such that the edge 75 is brought into the bite of the feed rolls 10 and 11 when the plunger 70 is in advanced position as shown in Fig. 6.
  • the filament 12 is threaded by passing the same between the tension discs 65 and through the transverse slot 62 in the tube 60.
  • the plunger 70 grips the filament which extends through the transverse slot 62 and pushes the filament up into contact with the feed rolls 10 and 11. It is then gripped by the feed rolls and fed into the bore 36 of the saddle 35.
  • a temporary spacer of some material such as felt or cotton pads between the feed rolls and the curved surfaces of the saddle to elevate the metal'saddle and serve as a temporary soft saddle to prevent pinching of or injury to the filament.
  • the filament is fed into the chamber 36 between the feed rolls 10 and 11 it is folded over and crimped as set forth in Rainard Patent No. 2,575,837 dated November 20, 1951, and is advanced through the chamber 13 in which it is held compacted and crimped.
  • the temporary felt saddle is removed and the saddle 35 is held in raised position by the packed filament.
  • the plunger 45 is now inserted in the sleeve 14.
  • the feed rolls 10 and 11 now operate to feed the filament continuously into the chamber 36 where it is crimped, and through the chamber 13 where it is held compacted under setting conditions until the crimp has been set.
  • the temperature is controlled by the heat supplied to the housing 16.
  • the saddle 35 Since the saddle 35 is floating with respect 'to the feed rolls 10 and 11 thefilament cannot become wedged between the curved surfaces 38 of the saddle and the periphery of the feed rolls. Hence there is no tend- I ency to wedge and damage the filament or break the same between the feed rolls and the contiguous surfaces of the saddle. contact with the rolls when the saddle 35 is raised from the rolls during the normal operation of the crimper.
  • the weight of the saddle 35, sleeve 14, plunger 45 and the material packed within the .sleeve 14 determines the back pressure against which the material is fed by the rolls 10 and 11 for crimping.
  • the crimp frequency and amplitude is controlled as a function of the back pressure and the mechanical characteristics of the filament (bending movement, crushing resistance and the like).
  • Spring loading may be used to supplement or replace the Weights on the plunger 45, if desired.
  • the crimping chamber may be reversed with respect to the feed rolls so that the filament is fed downwardly instead of upwardly to the crimping chamher if desired, in which case spring loading will be used for the floating saddle and closure plunger.
  • the crimped filament remains in the crimping chamber under setting conditions a sufiicient length of time for the internal stresses produced by the crimping to be relieved, so that the tendency of the crimp to open up after the material is removed from the chamber is eliminated.
  • the material immediately cools and becomes permanently set upon withdrawal from the crimping chamber or the crimping chamber may be so designed that the material cools to a temperature below that at which there is any tendency for plastic flow while still packed in the chamber. Since the stresses have been relieved by maintaining the material in heated condition in the crimping chamber the crimp becomes permanently set. Suitable moisture and pH conditions may be established in the crimping chamber, depending upon the type of material being crimped.
  • the take-up rolls 54 may constitute the delivery rolls of a winder which may be of the constant tension type or may deliver the crimped product to any subsequent process step which is usual in the textile industry.
