  • Patent number: 5058402
    Abstract: An apparatus for the continuous wet treatment of woven fabrics and knitted fabrics comprising a casing providing with an entry slot and an exit slot for the fabric under treatment, a curved widening cylinder, a series of rollers covered with a rubber layer with their axes parallel and transverse to the fabric feed path, the rollers being arranged in zig-zag formation in a vertical plane one in contact with the next. The series of rollers comprises in succession idle rollers, presser rollers and a motorized roller. The apparatus also comprises a squeezing roller positioned in proximity to said exit slot in contact with the motorized roller. There are also provided devices for adjusting the contact pressure between the presser rollers and their adjacent rollers and between said squeezing roller and its adjacent roller, and pairs of scraper seals positioned against the side ends of each mutually contacting roller pair of said series.

  • Patent number: 4875260
    Abstract: Equipment for the calendering of tubular knitted fabric (13) which, in the end step of a processing cycle, allows, by means of a cloth expander device (16), a steaming cxhamber (18) and a flattening, the width of the tubular fabric to be determined and fixed, besides giving the tubular fabric a commercially acceptable appearance. A plurality of calenders (19, 20, 26, 27) are disposed in series for being selectively used in engagement with the tubular knitted fabric (13) to effect a finishing treatment suitable for the individual type of tubular knitted fabric (13) which is undergoing treatment.
