Definitions
- This invention relates to apparatus for crimping textile yarns, and more particularly to such apparatus for crimping by the false-twist method.
- Apparatus for the crimping of textile yarns by falsetwisting wherein a twist tube is situated in the throat or crotch formed by two axially parallel rollers, the tube being in tangential contact with the rollers.
- One of the rollers is driven and the other runs idly as a guide roller, and the twist tube is urged against the rollers by means of magnets so as to be rotated at high speed.
- the yarn to be false-twisted is advanced longitudinally through the twist tube and is looped once around a cross-pin therein.
- each of the two rollers consists of two parallel discs which are maintained at an equal axial distance from each other by means of spacers, and magnetic attraction is effected by means of a permanent bar magnet arranged in the middle between the two discs and the two spacers.
- the magnetic attraction is effected by means of a horseshoe magnet the horseshoe plane of which runs in vertical direction and the ends of the legs of which bear horizontal pole shoes which extend into the space between the discs and the spacers.
- the present invention is directed to creation of a falsetwisting device of the described kind which permits an increase of the speed of revolution of the twist tube by effecting a reduction of its dimensions.
- this problem is resolved by using rollers in the form of flat discs as well as magnet means, preferably in the form of two permanent horseshoe magnets the U-planes of which are parallel to each other and arranged such that two magnetic legs running in parallel with the disc surfaces are situated opposite the upper and lower disc surfaces. The ends of the legs are situated adjacent the respective ends of the twist tube.
- One such magnet can be situated opposite the upper and the other opposite the lower disc surfaces, or one leg of each of the "ice two horseshoe magnets can be situated opposite the upper disc surfaces and the other leg opposite the lower disc surfaces.
- the apparatus of the invention presents the advantage that the rollers may be given the shape of flat discs of a thickness of between approximately 5 and 10 millimeters, whereby twist tubes with correspondingly small dimensions may be used. Furthermore, the twist tubes are not attracted magnetically by their central portion as in previous known false-twist devices, but by their two extremities, whereby the twist tubes are safely maintained in their position even at very high speeds of revolution.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating one form of the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating another form of the invention.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a roller 2 mounted for rotation on the shaft 15, and a moving belt 16 which runs in contact with the shaft to rotate same about the axis 1.
- An idling guide roller 4 is rotatable on the axis 3 and is positioned adjacent the roller 2 so that its sides or circular surfaces are in substantially the same planes as the corresponding surfaces of the roller 2.
- the rollers 2 and 4 may, for example, consist of a plastic material such as Vulcollan.
- a hollow twist tube 5 is positioned, and this twist tube may consist of a suitable hard metal, and may be formed with enlarged terminal parts 6 and 7 consisting of a magnetic material.
- the parts 6 and 7 are under the influence of the permanent horseshoe magnets 9 and 10 the U-planes of which are horizontal.
- the lines 11 and 12 indicate the magnetic flux paths of the magnets 9 and 10, respectively.
- a hollow cylindrical head 8 of non-magnetic material is fixed on the upper terminal part 6 of the twist tube 5; and a cross-pin (not shown) extends diametrically across the head 8 around which pin the longitudinally advancing textile thread (not shown) is wound once.
- the legs of magnet 9 are situated adjacent the upper surfaces 2, 4 of the rollers 2 and 4, and the legs of magnet 10 are situated adjacent the lower, non-visible surfaces 2", 4 of these rollers.
- the two magnets 9 and 10 must be of equal strength so that the terminal parts 6 and 7 of the twist tube 5 are equally attracted towards the rollers 2 and 4.
- the represented apparatus presents the same rollers 2 and 4 with the twist tube 5 arranged in the throat between the same.
- the U-planes of the two permanent horseshoe magnets 13, 14 are vertical, their legs 13 and 14 being situated opposite the upper roller surfaces 2' and 4' and the legs 13" and 14" opposite the non-visible lower roller surfaces 2" and 4".
- no separate magnetic fluxes exist in the two magnets but only one magnetic flux passes through both magnets, as indicated by line 15.
- This solution presents the further advantage that the magnets need not necessarily be of exactly equal strength.
- Apparatus for crimping textile yarns by false-twisting by means of axially parallel rollers and a twist tube held in tangential contact therewith by magnet means characterized in that the rollers are in the form of fiat discs and that the magnet means comprise parallel elements arranged adjacent the opposite faces of the respective discs and with their ends adjacent corresponding ends of the twist tube.
- magnet means are two permanent horseshoe magnets the planes of which are parallel with each other and so arranged that two legs of the magnet means are adjacent to the respective disc faces.
- Apparatus according to claim 2 wherein one horse- 20 shoe magnet is adjacent one pair of corresponding disc faces and the other horseshoe magnet is adjacent the other pair of corresponding disc faces.
