Abstract: This method of manufacturing a brush 1 comprises: a first step of forming a support body 10 in which through holes 14 are formed; and a second step of inserting a brush bristle 20 in a bent state into each through hole 14 from one side of the through hole 14 to cause a looped bristle to project from the through hole 14 on the other side.

Abstract: A high speed process for producing polyester filaments, in which process the formation of fluffs and the occurrence of filament breakage are very slight and a package having a good winding appearance can be stably obtained, by melt spinning polyester filaments at a taking-up speed of 3000 m/minute or more, while applying an aqueous emulsion of an oiling agent to the filaments, the oiling agent includes 50% by weight or more of a monobasic acid ester of a C.sub.10-18 aliphatic monocarboxylic acid with a C.sub.4-18 aliphatic monohydric alcohol and having an average molecular weight of 300 to 500; 1 to 15% by weight of a polyoxyalkylene glycol copolymer having an average molecular weight of 1,000 to 30,000; and 0.1 to 3% by weight of an organic siloxane compound and/or a fluoroalkyl (C.sub.3-18) group-containing compound.

Abstract: A fabric material that has a high resistance to tearing and is useful for sporting goods utilizing wind pressure, for example, yacht-sails, paragliders and hanggliders, comprises a woven fabric comprising, as a principal fiber component, polyester fibers and satisfies the following specifications:(1) a basic weight of 20 to 100 g/m.sup.2,(2) a tensile strength of 30 kg/5 cm or more,(3) an ultimate elongation of 18% or more,(4) a burst strengh of 0.18 kg/cm.sup.2 or more,(5) a tear strength of 1.0 kg or more, and(6) an air permeability of 1.0 ml/cm.sup.2 /sec or lessand preferably the polyester fibers have an intrinsic viscosity of 0.7 to 0.95, an individual fiber thickness of 1.5 to 3.0 denier, a tensile strength of 6.0 g/d or more, an ultimate elongation of 20% or more, a gradient A of a stress-strain curve at a point on the curve at which the elongation of the fibers is zero, of 1.

Abstract: Disclosed is a level-dyeable mixed false-twisted filament yarn composed of larger denier multifilaments (1) having a denier of 1 to 2.5 and smaller denier multifilaments (2) having a denier of 0.6 or less, which is characterized in that (a) the yarn comprises entangled portions (I) thereof whereat the larger denier filaments and the smaller denier filaments are entangled with one another and opened portions (II) thereof comprising a core composed of the larger denier filaments and a covering composed of the smaller denier filaments, (b) in the coverings of the opened portions, net-like parts thereof are formed by the smaller denier filaments extending obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the yarn and intersecting one another, and scattered therein, (c) the length L.sub.1 of the opened portions is longer than the length L.sub.

Abstract: Disclosed is a worsted yarn-like false-twisted yarn composed of large-denier multifilaments having a thickness of at least 4 de and small-denier multifilaments having a thickness of 0.

Abstract: Disclosed is a friction false-twisting device comprising three parallel rotatable shafts disposed at vertexes of a regular triangle and a plurality of friction discs having a yarn contacting surface made of ceramic disposed on the rotatable shafts. Each friction disc comprises a pair of parallel end surfaces, having a large distance T(mm) between the end surfaces in a range between 5 and 8 mm, a curved surface disposed at a position between said parallel end surfaces having a large radius of curvature R(mm) in a range between 5 and 8 mm and a pair of connecting surfaces formed between the end surfaces and the curved surface having a small radius of curvature r(mm) in a range between 1/6 R and 1/2 R. The surface roughness of the yarn contacting surface is formed in a range between 1.sup.s and 6.sup.s, defined by Japanese Industrial Standard.

Abstract: After doffing a full size yarn package from a bobbin holder of a takeup apparatus, a fresh bobbin is mounted thereon. A supplying thread via a thread guide is then sucked into an aspirator disposed adjacent to the takeup unit. Next, a portion of the thread upstream from the aspirator is caught by a cut-out groove at a free end of the bobbin holder and a helical winding is formed from the groove to a position on the fresh bobbin where the distance from the thread guide is minimum, and an initial bunch winding is formed at this position. Thereafter, the helical winding is eliminated by forming an additional bunch winding from a part thereof while the remaining part is sucked into the aspirator.The above method is applied to a takeup unit with a bobbin holder capable of mounting a plurality of bobbins so as to simultaneously form yarn packages from continuously supplied supplying threads.
