Definitions

  • the object of this invention is a method and an arrangement for the continuous manufacturing of yarn from textile staple material, where due to the action of an air stream the fibres are separated from the supplied bundle of libres and conveyed by means of a tube to the collecting surface oi a rotating spinning chamber, from which they are continuously taken-oli by means of a takeoff device in the shape of a twisted yarn.
  • a common drawback of all known recent methods for spinning of textile staple material which are based on the lav/s for forming the yarn is a rotating spinning chamber is, that the twist is given to the yarn in the opposite direction to the direction ot rotation or the spinning chamber, against the wall of -whichthe yarn is pressed due to centrifugal force. ln case of an increase or the rotating speed of the spinning chamber the centrifugal force increases, prevents the turning of the yarn around its axis in the course of twisting, which leads to frequent ruptures, unt-il the take-oit of the yarn is prevented at a speed which is not higher than that of classical spinning method. Thus the spinning speed is limited and the arrangement ldoes not work economically.
  • a further drawback is, that for all known new arrangements, the supply tube enters the space of the spinning chamber at the centre in its axis of rotation and terminates in the chamber either without any bend so that a parallel depositing of the libres in a band is not safeguarded or the supply tube is bent in the direction of the rotation of the spinning chamber and terminates in the neighbourhood of the collecting surface, Awhere the libres are deposited in the shape of a band.
  • a drawback of this arrangement is that the false twist is created outside the proper spinning chamber.
  • the spinninfr chamber has a narrowed take-oit port which rotates together with the chamber, the passage of the false twist into the part of the yarn which is still in the chamber, is prevented, in which place it is mostly needed in order to reduce the influence of the centrifugal force and to prevent the breaking of the yarn.
  • the advantages of the whole device gained by the false twist are thus reduced.
  • a further drawback of this arrangement is that in case oi a break in the yarn, the introduction of a new yarn over the tube and the clamps in the rotational body into the rotating spinning chamber is rather dilT-icult in order to continue the spinning process.
  • the said drawbacks are removed by the object of this invention which provides a method for a continuous manufacture of yarn from textile staple material where a false twist is given to the twisted yarn in the rotating spinning chamber.
  • the corresponding device for carrying out this method comprises a rotating spinning chamber ywith a funnel shaped body, arranged within said spinning chamber and coaxially therewith and placed behind the collecting surface the direction oi the take-ot of the twisted yarn, which funnel shaped body narrows in the take-off direction of the twisted yarn towards the take-oil port for the removal of the twisted yarn.
  • the funnel shaped body can receive some rotational movement.
  • the supply tube entering through the stationary cover into the rotating spinning chamber is straight in Iits part passing the cover in the direction towards the collecting surface, whereby the direction of this part can be inclined, askew or parallel with respect to the axis of rotation of the spinning chamber.
  • the supply tube can also have the shape of a channel in the stationary cover of the rotating spinning chamber.
  • An advantage of the method according to this invention is, that the false twist is given to the yarn directly -w-ithin the rotating spinning chamber, i.e.. at the place where there is the largest possibility of an interruption of the continuous manufacture of yarn.
  • the false twist increases temporarily the twist of the yarn, helps to withstand the influence of the centrifugal force, ⁇ which presses the yarn against the inner surface of the spinning chamber in the course of its rotation and enables the twisting, so that a frequent breaking is prevented.
  • the main advantage is, that it is thus possible to manufacture the yarn at high speed.
  • the arrangement of the supply tube in the rotating spinning chamber insures that the supply tube terminates in the spinning chamber close to the collecting surface, so that the fibres are deposited on this collecting surface in a parallel direction.
  • FlG. 1 represents a rotating spinning chamber including the object of this invention in xial cross section
  • FIG. 2 is the same arrangement in top view
  • FIG. 3 is another arrangement in axial cross section
  • lFIG. 4 is a further arrangement in axial cross section
  • FIG. 5 is another alternative arrangement in cross section.
  • FIG. 6 is a schematic layout of the spinning chamber with the supply and take-off devices.
  • the arrangement for a continuous manufacture of yarn from staple material comprises supply rolls 1 which supply the textile staple material 2, close to which rolls there is a stationary supply tube 3 terminating in the rotating spinning chamber d, outside of Iwhich there is the take-off device comprising a pair of rolls 5 for the removal of the twisted yarn 6.
  • the rotating spinning chamber 4 is a hollow rotational body with a collecting surface 7 and a take-off port 8.
  • the rotating spinning chamber 4 is in its entrance part provided with a stationary cover 9.
  • the supply tube 3 has a flattened inlet end 3a and an intermediate part 3b which passes through the stationary cover 9 into the spinning chamber 4 in an oblique direction with respect to the axis of rotation O, and terminates at its outlet end 3c in the neighborhood of the collecting surface 7 of the spinning chamber, the supply tube being straight in the portion extending from the point of contact with the stationary cover 9 into the rotating spinning chamber 4.
  • rIhe outlet part 3c of this supply tube 3 terminates in a bend corresponding to the curvature of the collecting surface '7 of the rotating spinning chamber 4.
  • the collecting surface 7 is provided with channels 1@ which are designed so as to produce in the course of rotation of the spinning chamber yda reduced pressure, required for the separation ⁇ of the fibres from the bundle 2 of the textile staple iibres and for their conveying viathe supply tube 3 to the collecting surface 7 of the rotating spinning chamber.
  • a funnel-shaped body 11 is provided coaxially within the rotating spinning chamber i situated behind the collecting surface 7 in the direction of the take-off of the twisted yarn 6, said funnel shaped body narrowing in the direction of take-off of the twisted yarn 6.
  • the enlarged section 13 of the funnel shaped body 11 covers in part the take-off part 1d of the rotating spinning chamber d.
  • the funnel shaped body 1 1 is either stationary or it can rotate in one or the other direction.
  • FIG. 3 Another embodiment of the object of this invention is shown in FIG. 3.
  • lt comprises a rotating spinning chamber 15 into which a rotating supply tube 16 terminates in its axis O1 of rotation.
  • the rotating supply tube 16 terminates by means of two channels 16 beyond the axis O1 of rotation of the spinning chamber 15 into the space opposite its collecting surface 17 and which channels 13 create due to their rotation a reduction of pressure, which conveys the ibres over the channels 18 to the collecting surface 17 of the rotating spinning chamber 15.
  • the collecting surface v17 is contrary to the previous arrangement smooth, without any channels or openings.
  • the funnelshaped body 19 is in this case situated behind the rotating spinning chamber 15 in the direction of the take-Gif of the twisted yarn 6. As in FIGS. l and 2, the funnel-shaped body may either be stationary or may rotate in one or the other direction.
  • FIG. 5 is a further alternative arrangement, wherein instead of the supply tube 3 there is a channel 21 arranged directly in the stationary cover 9 of the spinning charnber d.
  • the bundle of textile staple bres 2 is supplied by means of the supply rolls 1 to the flattened end 3a of the supply tube 5. Due to the rotation of the spinning chamber d a reduction of pressure is created therein, which causes a draft of air in the supply tube 3.
  • the fibres are taken along by the air stream, pass through the tube 3 and are deposited in the shape of a band 2d at the collecting surface 7 of the rotating spinning chamber 4.
  • the twisted yarn is removed from the rotating spinning chamber 4 over the outlet port 12 of the funnel shaped body 11 due to the pull of the take-off rolls 5. Due to the circumstances that the supply tube 3 ⁇ enters the rotating spinning chamber i4 askew, inclined or parallel with respect to its axis O of rotation, and the part 3b of the supply tube (3 is from the place of its support in the stationary cover 9 straight, a parallel depositing of the fibres on the collecting surface in a band 2t? is safeguarded without loss of speed in the air stream in the supply tube.
  • the arrangement according to .-FfG. 3 works in a similar way.
  • the libres are supplied to the collecting surface 17 of the rotating spinning chamber 15 over channels 1S of the rotating part of the supply tube 16 and are deposited on the collecting surface 17 of the rotating spinning chamber 15 due to the rotation of this part of the supply tube.
  • the twisted yarn 6 is removed over the outlet port 12. along the inner part of the funnel shaped body 19.
