  • Patent number: 4694642
    Abstract: The method of producing reinforced thread includes feeding loose fibres o the disc of a rotary twisting member, guiding the core thread through the disc eccentrically with respect to the axis of rotation of the twisting member and conducting the winding of the fibres about the core thread, to form the reinforced thread by rotating the twisting member. The apparatus for performing the method of producing reinforced thread comprises fibre-separating means communicating with a twisting member having a flat disc with an axial bore and an opening for the passage of the core thread, arranged eccentrically with respect to the axis of rotation of the twisting member, a holder for a bobbin with the core thread, a unit for winding the reinforced thread, and a guide for the core thread having its geometric center overlying the plane of the disc and aligned with the axis of rotation of the twisting member.

  • Patent number: 4628678
    Abstract: A twisting member of a ringless spinning apparatus comprises a cylindrical ousing with blades on its peripheral side surface. Secured on the blades is a first disc with an eccentric passage extending therethrough for the advancement of fibres, this disc acting as one gripping element of a device for gripping the fibres. The other gripping element is in the form of a second disc with an axial passage which is coaxially mounted on one end of a spring-biased sleeve in a position facing the first disc with the eccentrically extending passage and defining a gap with this first disc. The sleeve is coaxially accommodated in the housing.

  • Patent number: 4351149
    Abstract: The machine has a framework (1) with a rotation drive, spinning stations, a yarn withdrawal unit (2) and yarn winding devices (3) disposed thereon. Each spinning station comprises a fibres feed unit (4) and a spinning chamber (5), having a housing (14) installed on the framework (1) so that it can be withdrawn from the fibres feed unit (4). The yarn withdrawal unit (2) comprises a driving shaft (22) mounted on the framework (1), and pressing rollers (23), which in operating position are resiliently pressed to the driving shaft (22) and can be withdrawn from said driving shaft. Each yarn winding device (3) is mounted at a respective spinning station and comprises a bobbin carrier (27) and a yarn spreader (28). According to the invention each pressing roller (23) is mounted on the housing (14) of the respective spinning chamber (5), and each yarn winding device (3) has operative connection (31) with the housing (14) of a respective spinning chamber (5) to disengage and engage the rotation drive.

  • Patent number: 4288889
    Abstract: The invention contemplates a method for separating fibers fed in the form of fibrous material, wherein the material is pinched in the cross-section in such a manner that the pinching action is applied to fibers spaced from one another at a certain distance. Simultaneously, the velocity of fibrous material is substantially increased so that individual fibers are pulled out. An apparatus for carrying out the method comprises an outlet pair of rolls having an appropriately profiled cylindrical roll.

  • Patent number: 4245459
    Abstract: The present invention relates to spinning chambers of an apparatus for open-end spinning, which can be most effectively realized for producing yarns of low linear densities. This chamber comprises a housing shaped as a truncated cone with a larger open base and via this open end-face elimination of impurities from the yarn is performed.
