  • the twisting mechanism of the spinning device shown in 'FIG. 1 differs completely from that of the conventional twisting mechanism, that is, one end of the bundle of fibers is turned while the other end of the bundle of fibers does not receive restriction during the twisting operation.
  • a detailed illustration of the above-mentioned twisting mechanism and its operation are as follows:
  • the bundle of fibers 1 is supplied successively from a draft device comprising a trumpet 2, a pair of back rollers 3, 3', a pair of middle rollers 4, 4', and a pair of front rollers 5, 5', and the supplied bundle of fibers is sucked into a guide inlet 7 of a supply device 8 wherein sucking force is caused by compressed air supplied from a supply front rollers 5, 5', and fed to a rotor through the delivery pipe 9 of the supply device 8 by the air stream feeding means.
  • the outlet portion of the delivery pipe 9 points toward the inside wall of the rotor 10 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the rotor 10 is formed in a pot-like shape and is supported by a vertical cylindrical axis 13 supported by a machine frame 11 through a bearing 12 and is rotated at a high rotating speed by means of the driving belt 16.
  • the liberated or loosened fibers are ejected against the inside wall of the rotor 10, deposited successively upon it by the centrifugal force and air stream, consequently, the deposited fibers on the inside wall of the rotor 10 are rotated at a high rotating speed together with the rotor 10 on whose wall they adhere.
  • the liberated fibers thus deposited upon the inside wall of the rotor 10 are collected to form a bundle of yarn and twisted in a form of a complete spinning yarn 15 and taken up into a drum (not shown) by a pair of take-up rollers 19.
  • theliberated fibers 1' adhere to the inside wall of the rotor 10 by means of the centrifugal force and are accumulated successively, whereby self-doubling effect is caused to the bundle of fibers taken up from the inside Wall of the rotor 10.
  • the word self-doubling effect is explained as follows. Generally, in the spinning operation, the uneven thickness of the products such as sliver or roving is decreased by so-called doubling of a plurality of the products during the drafting operation.
  • This effect is called doubling effect, however in the present case, only the liberated fibers successively fed from the delivery pipe 9 are doub ed by means of the accumulation upon the inside wall of the rotor 10 in a similar manner as cutting a pack of cards, in the other words, the supplied bundle of fibers 6 is liberated into numerous individual fibers and doubled successively by the above-mentioned manner, consequently, the uneven thickness of the supplied bundle of fibers 6 can be reduced remarkably.
  • the abovementioned effect is hereinafter called self-doubling effect.
  • the fiber bundle taken from the inside wall of the rotor 10 is positively turned at the position the bundle of fibers is removed from the inside wall of the rotor while each fiber of the fiber bundle does not receive restriction to change them in the relative aligned position of fibers because the fiber bundle is accumulated upon the inside wall of the rotor 10 by the centrifugal force.
  • the liberated fibers supplied from the pipe 9 to the inside wall of the rotor 10 are accumulated in a uniform condition of alignment upon the inside wall of the rotor 10 while being provided with the selfioubling effect.
  • the inside radius of the rotor is R in meter
  • number of revolutions of the rotor is M r.p.m.
  • the surface speed of the inside wall of :he rotor 10 is V meter per min.
  • taking-off speed of the nundle of fibers from the inside wall of the rotor 10 is W neter per min.
  • an arbitrary point on the inside wall of :he rotor is designated as point P
  • the bundle of fibers s taken-off from the inside wall of the rotor 10 at the Josition designated by point P at the time function t T, :he taking-off point on the inside wall of the rotor 10 :rave's along the inside wall of the rotor 10 at a speed )f W meter per min.
  • the liberated fibers are coninuously blown to the inside wall of the rotor 10 while ravelling the taking off point travels along the inside Wall )f the rotor, it can be considered that the liberated fibers tre blown V/W times upon the position designated by the aking-otf point P until the taking-off point returns to the )riginal point P.
  • the drafted roving in the libera ed condition is self-doubled by V/ W.
  • the above-mentioned doubling operation is performed at any position in the inside wall of the rotor.
  • the fibers accumulated on the inside wall of the rotor only maintain their relative positions as a unit of the bundle of fibers chiefly by the centrifugal force, further the taking off points of the bundie of fibers from the inside wall of the rotor 10 are not fixed at one taking off point P. Consequently, no migration takes place during the twisting operation according to the above-mentioned embodiment of the invention, and a spun yarn having uniform thickness due to the selfdoubling effect of the rotor 10 can be manufactured.
  • the force restricting the free turning of the bundle of fibers is mainly the frictional force between the bundle of fibers and the inside wall of the rotor 10.
  • the abovementioned frictional force may be defined by the product of centrifugal force working on the bundle of fibers by coefficient. of friction between the bundle of fibers and the inside wall of the rotor 10.
  • the preferable coefficient of friction between the bundle of fibers and the inside wall of the rotor 10 is in a range from 0.2 to 0.7.
  • the abovementioned coefficient of friction was measured by the wellknown Roder method at a linear speed of 50 meters per minute.
  • the metallic inside wall of the rotor provided having a roughened plated surface is suitable for obtaining the above-mentioned preferable condition.
  • each fiber is formed with a plurality of spirals or helices aligned along its lengthwise direction and each spiral is provided with almost uniform shape.
  • the inner layer of the yarn is defined as that position of the fiber which is closer to the axis of the yarn with respect to the cross-section of the yarn, and vice versa.
  • the fiber positioned closer to the longitudinal axis of the yarn is considered as the fiber positioned at the inner layer of the yarn while the fiber positioned at a longer distance from the longitudinal axis of the yarn is considered as the fiber positioned at the outer layer of the yarn.
  • the term of the difference in number of spiral coils means that the fibers of the yarn have different spiral turns or different fiber pitch. All cases of changing spiral of fibers may be considered, in other words, the continuous changing of fiber spiral or discontinuous changing of fiber spiral from the outer layer to the inner layer may be considered.
  • the number of spiral coils of the fibers in the outer layer of yarn is larger than that of fibers in the inner layer of yarn.
  • FIGS. 4A, 4B and 4C The shape of two fibers contained in the conventional yarn and the yarns of the present invention are shown in FIGS. 4A, 4B and 4C, wherein projections of two fibers to a plane parallel to the yarn axis are shown, respectively.
  • a, c and e represent each fiber in the outer layer of the respective yarns while b, d and 1 represent each fiber in the inner layer of the respective yarns.
  • the pitch of the coil is smaller, in other words the larger the number of coils, the smaller the resilience to the bending deformation is.
  • the yarn of the present invention has a particular twist configuration wherein the number of coils of spiral of the fiber in the outer layer of the yarn is larger while that of the fiber in the inner layer of the yarn is smaller, in other words, the fiber in the outer layer of the yarn has a weaker resistance to the bending deformation while the fiber in the inner layer of yarn has a stronger resistance. Consequently, it is clearly understood that the yarn having a twist configuration composed of fibers such as a and [2 shown in FIG.
  • FIGS. 4A has a stronger resistance to the bending deformation than the yarn having a twist configuration composed of fibers such as c and d, e and f shown in FIGS. 48 and 4C, respectively.
  • Concerning the torsional deformation the yarn of the invention is easier to twist than the conventional yarn by the same reason as mentioned above. Therefore, the yarn of the invention shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C is softer than the conventional yarn shown in FIG. 4A.
  • the interference of the fibers in the inner layer or group to the fibers in the outer layer or group is very small, in other words, the fibers in the inner layer and the outer layer of the yarn can be deformed independently from each other.
  • the inner and outer layers of fibers have their respective helical convolutions irregularly and randomly positioned with respect to each other, or, in other words, the convolutions are out of phase with each other as seen in FIGS. 3, 4B and 4C. Consequently, the frictional resistance between the fibers in the inner layer and the outer layer can be considered as being very small.
