Abstract: Machine for spinning and texturing by false twisting, in which the false-twist zone comprises a plurality of identical texturing stations arranged side by side on a common frame, each station comprising in order, with regard to the displacement of the thread (2) during its texturing treatment:a first delivery (3) associated, if appropriate, with a system for drawing the thread (2) and making it possible to deliver the thread to be textured;a heating device (4) followed by a cooling zone (5) for the heated thread;a false-twist spindle (6);a second take-up (7) for the textured thread emerging from the false-twist spindle (6);if appropriate, a third take-up (8) of the thread, downstream of which is arranged a second thermal treatment zone (9), and;a final take-up arranged immediately in front of the receiving members,wherein the feed of threads to all the texturing stations is carried out from means for the spinning and drawing of chemical threads, which means are mounted on said texturing machine, the threads p

Abstract: It comprises a bowl (2) driven positively in rotation and a guide finger (3) which is spaced from the bowl (2) and is mounted on an arm (6) articulated relative to a support (7) mounted on the frame of the machine.The shaft (8) supporting the bowl (2) is equipped with a drive roller (12) which, in the working position, bears against a drive shaft extending over the entire length of the machine and common to all the workstations which the latter comprises.The articulated arm (6) is associated with means which, on the one hand, hold the drive roller (12) in bearing contact, with adjustable pressure, against the drive shaft during normal operation and, on the other hand, are neutralized when the articulated arm is moved away from said drive shaft.
