  • the conveyance console is specifically designed for cooperation with any one of a plurality of processing units similar to the illustrated electrifier cylinder.
  • the conveyance console is positioned on the floor ofa plant and various processing elements are selectively and alternatively brought into cooperation therewith. This makes possible the provision of a single universal conveyance system having the capabilities for sculpturing presented in this invention, along with individual processing elements only.
  • Each processing unit may be heated or non-heated, and may be provided with differential speed control.
  • FIGS. 8A-8F in addition to electrifier cylinders of the type suggested in FIG. 2, it is contemplated that ironer plates, rotary ironers, fractional ironers, brushes rotating about either parallel or orthogonal axes, and thermosculpturing tools, may be used. These applications are explained in more detail hereinafter.

  • FIGS. 4A4E illustrate typical profiles that may be utilized in conjunction with the pattern roll of the invention.
  • FIG. 4A shows a pair of pattern profiles for imposing line patterns into the pile fabric being processed. Each profile has a concave lower face adapted to conform to the surface of the pattern roll and includes two countersunk holes for retaining bolts.
  • FIGS. 48 and 4C illustrate the versatility available with the pattern blocks of the invention and respectively show .pattern profiles for a right and left helix.

  • the inner surface of the pattern profile need not be concave.
  • FIGS. 5 7 schematically illustrate the result of passing a synthetic pile fabric past an electrifier cylinder while utilizing a conveyancing system employing the method and apparatus of this invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a top view of such a fabric and clearly illustrates the difference in lustre or surface appearance resulting from the various profile patterns on the pattern roll.
  • the areas 41 are those in which the pattern profiles were present, in contrast with the areas 42 wherein the profile patterns were absent.
  • the cross-section shown in FIG. 6 illustrates that the presence of a pattern profile, for example, in area 43, caused the fabric to be subjected more thoroughly to processing with the result of distinctive pile condition.
  • the absence of a pattern profile, for example, in the area 44 resulted in a different pile conditioning.
  • the circled portion 7, shown in FIG. 6, is enlarged in FIGS. 7A and 78 to illustrate more graphically the results of this type of pile processing.
  • the backing 45 is shown to secure a plurality of fibers 46-49.
  • the fibers 47 that were in proximity to the profiles all stand substantially uncurled and virtually perpendicular relative to the backing.
  • the fibers 46 on the left side of FIG. 7A have more curl and deformed root portions.
  • the pattern profiles additionally tended to effect an ironing down of fibers 49, while fibers 48 were rendered erect. It will be appreciated that the areas proximate to the pattern profiles provide a different lustre or appearance. In other words, a sculptured effect is produced, without shearing. Still further, the effect is permanent.
  • processing units may be employed with this universal conveyancing system. Typical units have been shown by way of example in FIGS. 8A-8G.
  • the versatility provided by this invention makes possible the utilization not only of varying units, but also varying speeds of conveyance and operation vis-a-vis the processing units used. It is also possible to selectively employ heating, either in the pattern roll or in the processing unit itself.
  • FIG. 8A there is illustrated a pattern roll 10 operating in conjunction with a concave ironer plate 50.
  • the ironer plate in such a configuration may be provided with a concave curvature substantially concentric with the curvature of the pattern roll and of arc length commensurate with the desired ironing effects.
  • the ironer plate would be heated and would be mounted for the application of adjustable pressure relative to the pattern roll.
  • the pattern roll itself may be run either in synchronism with the conveyancing system or at a different speed in order to produce slurred patterns.
  • the pattern roll may be either heated or operated at ambient temperatures.
  • FIG. 8B illustrates a configuration wherein rotary ironing is carried out.
  • the pattern roll 10 operates in cooperation with two pressure heated cylinders 51 and 52 which are mounted upon parallel axes.
  • the pressure cylinders may be either operative at heated or ambient temperatures and they may be controlled with a variable speed control vis-a-vis the pattern roll. It is contemplated that the pressure cylinders may operate with reversible rotation if desired and that they may include surface designs.
  • the pattern roll exhibits its customary versatility relative to the particular profiles utilized thereon; may employ a variable speed drive; and may be operated at either heated or ambient temperatures.
  • the pattern roll also is able to apply adjustable pressure in accordance with the desires of the operator.
  • the pressure roll may have a contoured face if desired and it may include sculptured or plain profiles.
  • Both the pattern roll and the pressure roll may beheated or operated at ambient temperature and with variable speeds.
  • Optional reversible rotation may be provided.
  • the pattern roll is parallel with a rotary brush 54.
  • the brush may be driven at variable speeds, with adjustable pressure and in reversible directions.
  • the pattern roll may also be controlled under variable speeds at either heated or ambient temperatures.
  • the brushing of thermo-setting materials is generally an intermediate step and produces a relatively transient finish, nevertheless, this may be a desirable operation as an intermediate step in conjunction with a complete pile processing operation.
  • the brushed condition can be set into the fabric with proper heating of the pattern roll.
  • FIG. 8E illustrates yet another processing operation that may be performed in conjunction with the pattern roll 10.
  • one employs swirling brushes 55 rotating about an axis perpendicular to the axis of the pattern roll. The amount of contact with these brushes is determined by the configuration on the pattern roll and if it is desired, one may even select pattern profiles which, in effect, provide a completely smooth surface upon the pattern roll.
  • FIG. 8F illustrates the utilization of a pattern roll 10 in conjunction with electrifier units 56 which are axially disposed along the longitudinal axis of the pattern roll.
  • the adjacent edge of units 56 interacts with the pile on the pattern roll.
  • This type of vertical electrification provides an effect somewhat like that of the brush swirling.
  • greater permanence is achieved because of the possibility of heating both the swirling electrifier and the pattern roll.
  • the ability to vary patterns and thereby bring the material into greater or less contact with the vertical electrifier yields considerable advantage for the fabric designer.
  • the method practiced in this invention is concerned primarily with the establishment ofa treatment zone wherein pile fabric is processed.
  • the processing may include a variety of treatments and would generally be carried out with such conventional elements as brushes, ironers, electrifiers and the like.
  • Such elements have a definite range of influence and the method is concerned with selectively bringing the pile into this range so that different areas are differently processed.
  • the invention is particularly concerned with modern synthetic pile fabrics, because these fabrics have characteristics of plasticity and respond to electrostatic influences in a special way.
  • By-using the method and apparatus of the invention one may take advantage of these characteristics to first render the pile more pliable (e.g., by heating), then subjecting it to heating and electrical polarization (e.g., with an electrifier), and thereafter permanently set it (e.g., by cooling).
  • a sculpturing effect is achieved by selective variations in surface lustre and this can be accomplished by changing the pile lay and/or deforming the pile.
  • FIG. 8G illustrates two electrifiers 30a and 30b used with a single conveyance system.
  • the direction of rotation of the electrifier cylinders can be either similar or reversed, and the speed of the pattern roll or rolls can be determined as desired.
