Definitions

  • the objects of the present invention are accomplished by forcibly feeding a textile strand into a crimping zone, continuously impeding, at a fixed location relative to the crimping zone, the passage of the strand from the crimping zone by means of a unidirectionally movable impeding element having an endless strand-engaging peripheral surface effective to accumulate and crimp the strand in the crimping zone, and releasing the accumulated and crimped strand from the crimping zone by directing the force of the crimped strand against the impeding element andthereby moving the'impeding element.
  • the invention contemplates application of the impeding force to the unidirectionally moving strand by impeding means moving likewise.
  • the shape of the crimping chamber itself may be altered; for example, it may flare outward toward the end from which the strand exits, and the shape of the opposite or intake end of the tube, whose side walls terminate in vertexes closely approaching the peripheral surfaces of the respective feed rolls, may be varied as desired for adequate doctoring of the rolls, i.e., ensuring entrance of all the fed strand into the tube; similarly, the shape of the infeeding guide, which also enters closely toward the nip of the rolls, may be varied for a like purpose.
  • the front or one side wall of the tube or chamber may be made of glass or transparent plastic to permit observation of the crimping as it occurs.
  • the apparatus of claim 5, including means for frictionally retarding rotation of the strand-impeding element, whereby passage of a strand fed into the tube and against the strand-impeding element by the strand-feeding rolls is opposed with a force independent of the feeding rate.
  • a wheellike element rotatably mounted on a fixed axis
  • a pair of strand-feeding rolls rotatably mounted on axes located a constant distance from and substantially perpendicular to the axis of the wheel-like element
  • confining means forming an enclosed passageway between the nip of the feed rolls and the wheel-like element and intercepting part of the peripheral surface of the wheel-like element
  • Apparatus comprising strand-confining means having a bore adapted to receive a textile strand in one end, to accumulate it temporarily therein, and to emit it from the other end; a fixedly mounted wheel-like strand-impeding element intercepting the bore and adapted to contact the strand therein, to impede passage of the strand therethrough, and to move therealong in impeding contact with the strand in the direction of strand travel; friction-generating means continuously connected to the strand-impeding element and adapted to impart thereto a substantially unvarying frictional force effective to permit movement of the strand-impeding means only upon sufliciently forcible contact of the strand against the References Cited in the file of this patent UNITED STATES PATENTS Tait Oct.
