Definitions

  • the present invention relates to false-twist devices of the kind used for texturing yarns and more particularly, to the twist tubes which constitute part of such devices.
  • Twist tubes of the class described are known in the interior of which a transverse pin is provided to impart a twist to yarn ends to be textured while same are advancing longitudinally through the bore of the tube, the yarn being wound once completely around the pin (see U. S. Pat. No. 3,475,895).
  • a special form of twist tube of this kind is known in which, at one end of the tube, a head is enlarged with respect to the diameter of the twist tube and a pin, consisting of a hard material such as sapphire, is arranged transverse of the bore of the tube.
  • a twist tube for a false-twist device for texturing textile yarns characterized in that at least three yarn deviating elements, such as pins, are spaced from one another in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the twist tube over which elements the yarn may pass in alternate directions.
  • the head of the tube may be enlarged to accommodate the yarn deviating elements which are preferably arranged parallel to one another.
  • the head may be provided at one end of the twist tube or in its central part.
  • at least three pins extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the twist tube may be provided which may be laterally displaced with respect to each other. If the head is provided in the central part the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated.
  • FIG. 1 shows the head of a twist tube with three pins, the figure being a central longitudinal section taken vertically with respect to the axes of the pins;
  • FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 1, but showing the head of a twist tube with four pins;
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 are schematic views of the yarn paths in the examples according to FIGS. 1 and 3, respec tively;
  • FIG. 6 is a view similar to FIGS. 1 and 3 but illustrating another form of the invention.
  • FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view illustrating yet another embodiment of the invention.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 on the end of the twist tube 1, there is a head enlarged with respect to the twist tube and in which sapphire pins 3, 4 and 5 are provided transversely to the longitudinal axis of the head and tube.
  • the pins 3 and 5 are arranged so that the textile yarn 6, passing over them in the concave tapered cen' tral parts 3, 4, 5' thereof, is fed and taken off in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the twist tube.
  • two longitudinal slots 7, 7' are provided in the wall of the head 2 and trans versely with respect to the axes of the pins.
  • the central pin 4 being laterally displaced with respect to pins 3 and 5
  • the wall of the head 2 is provided with a compensating recess 8.
  • the yarn is led, in all, by twice the angle a, and the angle ,8, around the pins 3, 4 and 5.
  • the mutual arrangement of the pins is chosen so that the angle a is 50, the angle [3 and the total angle thus is 200. If the arc of 200 is used in Eythelweins equation, the result is:
  • the ratio of yarn tensions S S is essentially reduced when compared with an angle of 360.
  • each sapphire pins 9, 10, ll, 12 are arranged transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the twist tube and symmetrically with re spect to the same in lateral displacement.
  • the yarn passes over the pins in their tapered central parts, and the feeding to pin 9 and the taking off from pin 12 is effected along the longitudinal axis of the twist tube.
  • This symmetrical arrangement of the pins presents the advantage that, during rapid rotation of the twist tube, no eccentricity occurs, and compensation by a corresponding recess in the wall of head 2 is not necessary.
  • the yarn 6 is led totally by twice the angle a and twice the angle B around the pins 9, 10, ll, 12.
  • the mutual arrangement of the pin is chosen so that the angle a is 40 and the angle [3 85 so that the total angle will be 250. If the arc of 250 is used in Eythelweins equation, the result is:
  • the head may be provided in the central part of the tube.
  • the ends of the tube may extend into the head to serve, along with a transverse pin, as yarn deviation elements, as shown in FIG. 7.
  • a twist tube for use in a flase-twist device for texturing textile yarns characterized in that the tube is provided with an enlarged head arranged at one end of the tube and at least three yarn deviating elements are positioned transversely of the head and are spaced from one another along the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tube, two such elements presenting respective surfaces for engagement by a yarn end advancing along the longitudinal axis of the tube and at least one such element being disposed laterally of such axis.
  • a twist tube according to claim 1 characterized in that a portion of said tube is reduced dimensionally to compensate for weight unbalance due to the positions of the deviation elements.
  • a twist tube for use in a false-twist device for texturing textile yarns characterized in that the tube is provided with an enlarged head in the central portion of the twist tube and at least three yarn deviation elements are positioned transversely of the head and are spaced from one another in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tube at least one yarn deviating element being disposed laterally of such axis.
  • a twist tube for use in a false-twist device for texturing textile yarns characterized in that the tube is provided with an enlarged head between its ends and that the two ends of the twist tube extending into the enlarged head and at least one pin extending across the head transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the twist tube serve as yarn deviation elements.
  • a twist tube for use in a false-twist device for texturing textile yarns characterized in that four yarn deviating elements are positioned transversely of the bore of the tube and are spaced from one another along the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tube, two such elements presenting respective surfaces for engagement by a yarn end advancing along the longitudinal axis of the tube, and two such elements being disposed laterally of such axis.
  • Twist tube according to claim 5 characterized in that the pins are arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the twist tube.
