  • Publication number: 20240068134
    Abstract: A yarn spinning and/or twisting machine with multiple balls, comprising a yarn-feeding means (1), a yarn collection means for the yarn (4) with a rotation axis (V), a yarn guide (8) located between the yarn-feeding means (1) and the yarn collection means (4), means for the generation of the diameter of the ball (DB), motorised means linked to the yarn collection means (4), where the internal diameter of the yarn guide (8) is greater than the diameter of standard yarn guides (8) for each type of yarn, and smaller than 1.1 times the diameter of the ball generator (DB). Preferably, the internal diameter of the yarn guide (8) is between 0.01 and 0.9 times the diameter of the ball generator (DB). Preferably, the yarn spinning and/or twisting machine comprises several yarn guides (8, 8?, 8?), at least one of these with an internal diameter greater than the diameter of the standard yarn guide (8) for each type of yarn and smaller than 1.1 times the diameter of the ball generator (DB).

  • Publication number: 20240035207
    Abstract: A yarn ring spinning and/or twisting machine with multiple balls, comprising means to move the relative position of the yarn guide (8) with respect to the yarn exit point (Y1) from the yarn feed means (1) with a trajectory (T) not aligned with the axis of rotation (V) during a spinning cycle, such that the trajectory of the yarn along a lower area (LB) between the yarn guide (8) and the cursor-ring assembly (5), where at least 2 balls are formed, does not foul the yarn collection means (4) in order for the spinning process to be stable. Preferably, the trajectory (T) of the yarn guide (8) has a first section which moves the yarn guide (8) on the axis of rotation (V) of the yarn collection means (4), and a second section which moves the yarn guide (8) away from the axis of rotation (V) of the yarn collection means (4).

  • Patent number: 11505880
    Abstract: A process is provided of yarn spinning and/or twisting, in which a yarn runs between a yarn feeder towards a yarn picker. A driver rotates the yarn picker at a predetermined speed, in which a stretch of balloon is generated in a point located between the yarn feeder and the yarn picker by the presence of a ring. A helical path with oscillating spiral diameters exists between the yarn feeder and the yarn picker, so that the path of the yarn through the ring, creates a body of revolution from a diameter generating a balloon that has at least a hyperboloid structure forming at least two stretches of balloons consecutive to each other. A machine for performing the process is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20220235495
    Abstract: Process to set the optimal working height between the thread entry point and the thread exit point in a twisting and/or thread spinning machine, and a twisting and/or thread spinning machine that applies such process including: identifying the variation of tension of the thread produced by the variation of the winding diameter (d) of the thread (8) on the bobbin (5), depending on the position of the rocker (6), or the winding diameter of the thread on the bobbin (5); carrying out the displacements from the thread entry point (PE) and/or from the thread exit point (PS) to obtain a distance (LB) between both in which the variations of tension counter each other.

  • Publication number: 20220010465
    Abstract: A method for transforming a yarn spinning and/or twisting machine and the yarn spinning and/or twisting machine modified according to the method to increase the height (h) of the balloon region zone (a), between the upper and lower ends thereof is provided. In order to provide the zone with two or more balloon regions (a), with means for feeding (1) the thread (2) using conventional upper guides (3), and means for tensing (4) and rolling (5) the thread (2) onto a lower collection reel (6), includes elimination of the conventional guide means (3); and the incorporation of an additional guide accessory (3?) immediately after the feed means (1), including for example, of a clip (30) or a set of rollers (32) optionally with a conveyor belt (33).

A driving means rotates the yarn picking means at a predetermined speed, in which a stretch of balloon is generated in a point located between the feeding means (1) and the picking means by the presence of twisting means. A helical path with oscillating spiral diameters exists between the yarn feeding means (1) and the yarn picking means, so that the path of the yarn, by the operation of the twisting means, creates a body of revolution from a diameter generating a balloon that has at least a hyperboloid structure (E) forming at least two stretches of balloons (B) consecutive to each other. A machine for performing the process is also provided.

  • Patent number: 9365957
    Abstract: An ultralight flat-weave fabric including more than one wefts and their directions that intersect with one another to form a particular angle in relation to the warp, and a warp. The weft and warp are supplied with fibers or fabrics having a cross-section in the form of a flat tape. In this way, it is possible to product a woven fabric in which two weft tapes having different directions are combined with the warp tape, such that stresses in six different directions are absorbed in a single fabric layer without multiple fabrics having to be overlapped. The woven fabric is completely covered, has a weight-to-surface area ratio of 2, and, as a result, is very light.

  • Patent number: 8079207
    Abstract: Thread twist system for twisting and spinning machines which comprises means (12) for measuring and/or calculating directly or indirectly the rotation speed (11) of the runner (5), in such a way that the working movements and parameters of the machine keep real twisting constant throughout the process of filling the reel (2) in a dynamic and instantaneous way, by acting on the angular speed (10) of the spindles (1) and/or the feeding (9) speed of the thread (6), with the objective of correcting the theoretical twisting on the thread itself (6) and converting it into real twisting.
