PrimaryExaminer-John W. Huckert Assistant, ExaminerCharles Gorenstein ABSTRACT Yarn is false twisted by means of a frictional twister having successive yarn contacting surfaces of increasing hardness.
a atar/4W I r gi l/6 s 25 Claims, 3 Drawing Figures PATENTED HEY I 2 I974 TWISTING OF TEXTILE FILAMENTS The present invention relates to the twisting of textile filaments.
According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of false twisting synthetic filament yarn wherein the yarn runs in a path in which itcontacts in succession two moving deformable twistimparting surfaces of different hardnesses to false twist the yarn.
According to a second aspect of the present invention there is provided a false twisting arrangement for synethetic filament yarn comprising two deformable twist imparting surfaces of different hardnesses which, in use, are contacted in succession by a running synthetic filament yarn and are'so arranged to move to impart false twist to the yarn.
Two embodiments of the invention will now be described by way of example, with reference to the ac-' companying drawings in which:'
FIG. 1 is a front elevation of a false twist unit FIG. 2 is a section on the lines lI-II of FIG. 1, showing a first form of false twist arrangement according to the invention FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a second form of false twist arrangement according to the invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, the false twist unit comprises a frame 2 which rotatably supports upper and lower rotary twist bushes 4 and 8 respectively. The bushes 4, 8 are each provided with a pulley portion 3 and are'arranged to be driven in mutually opposite directions by a belt drive 5 which passes round the pullies 3, a motor drive pulley 7 and a spring loaded jockey pulley 19 and is driven by a motor 1.
Referring also to FIG. 2, the bushes 4 and S'are formed as hollow steel cylinders 11 and are provided with annular rebates at their ends which receive deformable polyurethane rings 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d each of quadrant section and 80 arranged that their curved surfaces form shaped mouths for the bushes. The Shore hardness of the ring 612 is 2 greater than that of ring 6a, that of ring 6c 2 greater than that of ring 6b and that of ring 6a 2 greater than that .of ring 6c. The rings 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d are colour coded according to theirhardness for easy identification.
Each hollow steel cylinder 11 is mounted in an air bearing which, as best seen in FIG. 2, comprises three annular metal rings 10, 12, 13 which surround the hollow metal cylinder 11. The radial walls 14 of the middle ring 12 are roughened to provide a passage for air to pass from a radially outer annular chamber 15 to aradially inner annular gap between the cylinder 11 and the rings 10, 12, 13. Air is supplied to the chamber 15 from a source of air under pressure through pipes 16 in the frame 2.
The front of the frame 2 is covered by a plate 30 which is provided with two holes which the twist bushes 4, 8.
In use, the bushes 4 and 8 are rotated in mutually opposite directions. A thermoplastic continuous filament yarn 17 is drawn through the two twist bushes 4 and 8 in the direction indicated by the arrow 9 in FIG. 2. The yarn 17 is at its lowest tension as it enters the upper twist bush 4 and contacts the surface of the least hard ring 6a. The tension''d yarn 17 deforms the surface of the ring 60 and friction between the surface of the ring 6a and the yarn 17 inserts twist into the yarn 17 which the second hardest and thefinally contacted surface register with place. Finally, the yarn passes diagonally across the second busy 8 to contact the surface of the hardest ring 6d before leaving the second bush 8. The tension of the yarn 17 increases as it'passes through'the two twist bushes 4 and 8 and the yarn 17 is at maximum tension as it leaves the'lower bush 8.
Referring next to FIG. 3, the upper and lower twist bushes 20, 21 are rotatably mounted in the frame 22in the manner described with reference to FIGS. land 2.
Parts common to FIGS. 1 and 2 and to FIG. 3 bear. the same reference numerals are not-described in detail.
The upper and lower bushes 20, 21 are'formedas hollow steel cylinders 23 which receive cylindrical deformable polyurethane sleeves 24a, 24b. whose wall thickness increases axiallyfrom the ends to an axially central portion of maximum thickness. The Shore-hard ness of the upper sleeve 24a is less than the Shore hardness of the lower sleeve 24b. I
In use, the two twist bushes 20, 21 are rotated in mutually opposite directions by the belt drive 5. A thermoplastic continuous filament yarn 25 is drawnv through the two twist bushes 20, 21 in thedirection indicated by the arrow 26. The yarn 25 is at its lowest tension as it enters the upper twist bush 20 and contacts the less hard sleeve 24a. The friction between the insert 24a and the yarn 25 inserts twist in to the yarn 25 which hen Pas lx. across he. 1 21 29 t onta the surface of the less hard sleeve 24a where twist is also inserted. After leaving the upper bush 20 theyarn 25 enters the lower bush 21 and contacts the surface of the harder sleeve 24b where further twisting takes place. Finally, the yarn 25 passes diagonally across the second bush 21 to contact the surface of the harder sleeve 24b once again to insert twist. The tension of the yarn 25 increases as it 'passes through the twist bushes 20, 21 and the yarn is at maximum tension as it leaves the lower bush 21.
It will be appreciated that each sleeve 24a, 24b may be formed in two cylindrical parts which are in end-toend abutment. The parts are preferably of differing hardness and arranged so that the first surface of the upper sleeve 24a contacted by the yarn 25 is the least hard surface, the next contacted surface the third hardest, the first contacted surface of the lower sleeve 24b,
the hardest.
It will be appreciated that while the embodiments of the invention described above with reference to the drawings include deformable twist imparting-surfaces mounted otherwise. For example, deformable twist imparting surfaces of different hardnesses may be mounted on the peripheries of two stacks of rotatable discs arranged with their axes parallel. The discs of one stack are axially staggered from and =radially overlapping with the discs of the other stack'. In use, the discs rotate in mutually opposite directions with the yarn following a serpentine path in contact alternately with the peripheries of the two stacks of discs.
The deformable twist-imparting surfaces described above with reference to the drawings are made of deformable polyurethane. It will be appreciated, however, that other deformable materials such as rubber and suitable elastomers may also be used.
The twist assembly described with reference to the drawings is particularly suitable for incorporation in a texturing machine as described in British Patent Application No. 61237/69.
