Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An arrangement for air drying a textile material on a textile machine during weaving, wherein the material manufactured on the machine is in the moist or wet condition before winding onto the cloth beam.
  • radiators are sluggish in operation, that is to say on starting the machine, the development of heat is subject to delay and on shutting the machine down it ceases slowly; this impairs the uniformity of the fabric and, therewith, the quality thereof.
  • these arrangements have the disadvantage that the drying effect or the degree of drying is not uniformly distributed over the width of the fabric.
  • the said ground weave is, immediately after weaving, coated with a moist layer of glue.
  • This glue coating must be dried before winding the fabric on a cloth beam.
  • the material is conveyed transversely of the longitudinal direction of the container and past it, the container being open towards the material so that an air chamber extending in the longitudinal direction of the container is formed and is adapted to receive drying air supplied to it through an air feed conduit means.
  • the air chamber has at least one outlet slot extending in its longitudinal direction and into the interior of the container for passing the drying air against the wet woven material before it is wound onto the cloth beam.
  • the arrangement according to this invention can be advantageously employed where fabric material requires drying before wind-on.
  • the known wet-weaving process is utilized particularly when an especially dense cloth is required.
  • FIG. 1 is a section view in the longitudinal direction through an arrangement showing the container according to the invention, along the line 1-1 of FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken transversely of the container along the line IIII of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 shows a cross-sectional view of another embodiment illustrating a sliding wall for controlling the flow of drying air onto the wet textile material
  • FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional view showing further development of the arrangement of FIGS. 1 and 2;
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the sliding walls for controlling the flow of drying air and showing variations in width of the slots for emitting drying air therefrom;
  • FIG. 6 shows an arrangement in which a cover plate is moved vertically to vary the width of the slots for emitting drying air therefrom.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 relate to an arrangement provided on a loom. What is concerned is a loom wherein the weft threads are inserted into the shed by means of a jet of water.
  • the fabric or cloth 11 produced is, therefore, initially wet. It is wound from a taking-up or feed roller 12, over a front deflecting roller 13, over a drying arrangement 14, and over a rear deflecting roller 15, onto a cloth beam 16.
  • the drying arrangement 14 comprises a container 20 having lateral walls 21, the upper delimiting portions or free ends 22 of which may be bent over.
  • the container 20 is of elongate, trough-like shape and is, as shown in FIG. 1, somewhat longer than the width of the fabric 11.
  • the container 20 is open at the side facing the manufactured fabric or material 11. On the opposite side, it is sealed by a base plate 23, and at the ends by walls 29.
  • the air chamber 30 Disposed within the container 20 is an air chamber 30 extending over the entire length of the container 20.
  • the air chamber 30 has two lateral walls 31 and a cover plate 32.
  • the lateral walls 31 extend in the direction away from the base plate 34 of the chamber 30, obliquely outwardly.
  • Attached to the longitudinal edges of the cover plate 32 are side plates 33 which also extend away from the longitudinal edges of the cover plate 32, obliquely outwardly.
  • drying air may be introduced into the chamber 30.
  • drying air preferably hot air is employed.
  • the fabric 11 is conveyed slowly over the container 20. Meanwhile, the open upper side thereof is covered by the fabric 11.
  • the drying air introduced through the feed conduits 35 into the air chamber 30 flows between the walls 31 and the plates 33 and against the underside of fabric 1 1, whereby the latter is dried as it travels from the right-hand to the left-hand lateral wall 21, as seen in FIG. 2. If the fabric, as shown in FIG. 1, completely covers the upper, open portion of the container 30, a noticeable portion of the air passes through the fabric, whereby the drying effect is reinforced.
  • the slots formed by the upper or free edges of the lateral walls 31 and the side plates 33 are in a spaced relationship such that the slots divide the width of the container 20 into three equal portions since, thereby, uniform distribution of the drying air is achieved, and this is important for uniform treatment of the material 11.
  • the arrangement 14 is distinguished by extremely uniform distribution of the drying air due to the fact that the latter is uniformly distributed in the air chamber 30 and therefore flows out uniformly over the entire length of the slots formed by the elements 31, 32.
  • FIG. 3 represents for example a cross-section through the wall 31.
  • the latter is of double-wall construction.
  • a sliding wall 36 adapted to be displaced in the direction of the double arrow 37, whereby the width of the walls 31 may be varied.
  • the width designated as d, and d in FIG. 5 is shown as variable.
  • FIG. 1 shows how the length of the upper free aperture of the container may be varied.
  • slides 24 which may be displaced horizontally in the direction of the double arrow 25.
  • the upwardly open portion of the container 20 may be adapted to various widths of the material 11 so that substantially all of the open portion of the container is covered by said material.
  • FIG. 4 shows the said breast beam in cross-section.
  • Arrangement for drying a textile material on a weaving machine wherein the material woven on the machine is in a wet condition before winding onto a cloth beam, characterized in that there is provided an elongated trough-like container having two longitudinal lateral walls that extend the width of the textile material to be dried and in contact with it, the spacing of said lateral walls of said container being at least equal to the width of the textile material to be dried and the material covering substantially all of the open portion of the container, said material being conveyable transversely of the longitudinal direction of the container and over it while being in intimate contact with said longitudinal lateral walls, and the container open towards said material; said container being arranged between two deflecting rollers between which the material is retained in a tensioned condition, the container having free ends attached to end portions of longitudinal lateral walls of said container that extend a short distance in the plane defined by the material between the deflecting rollers so that the material bears on said free ends as it passes over said container; an air chamber positioned longitudinally inside said container, said air chamber formed from
