  • Patent number: 6192667
    Abstract: The inventive arrangement of bundles of fibrils in a part of a spin draw texturizing or draw texturizing machine presents a fan-type arrangement of these bundles of fibrils in which preferentially the longitudinal axes of the texturizing nozzles taking up the bundles of fibrils extend coaxially with a connecting line extending from a delivery point on a draw roll to the outlet of each individual texturizing nozzle.

  • Patent number: 5230210
    Abstract: A nozzle mechanism for generating a twist in a yarn in an air-jet spinning machine, the nozzle comprising a central cylindrical duct having an axis through which a yarn is delivered in a selected direction and a bore having an axis and a diameter entering tangentially into the cylindrical duct for inputting compressed air into the duct, the bore entering the duct such that the axis of the bore forms an obtuse angle with the axis of the duct, the bore further entering the duct such that the perpendicular distance between the axis of the bore and the point of tangential entry of the bore into the duct is less than half the diameter of the bore.

  • Patent number: 4934133
    Abstract: To improve the efficiency of a rotating air layer produced by an air injection nozzle and rotating in a substantially cylindrical space, the rotating air layer being intended to rotate a twisted fiber structure introduced through an inlet duct, there is provided a tube extension at the inlet duct. This tube extension forms a guide for the air flow injected tangentially and at an inclination by the air injection nozzle with respect to the direction of travel of the twisted fiber structure. As a result of this guide, the rotating air layer can form before it engages or contacts the twisted fiber structure. As a result there is increased the rotation of the engaged twisted fiber structure per unit length thereof, resulting in increased strength of the twisted fiber structure and the yarn ultimately produced therefrom with low air consumption.
