Abstract: The arrangement for continuous treatment of a textile product with steam includes one or more treatment chambers; a transporting device having a horizontal conveyor guided through the treatment chamber or chambers; a steam-tight housing surrounding the treatment chamber or chambers; at least one circulating device with at least one circulating fan arranged in the treatment chamber or chambers and nozzle boxes arranged above and below the horizontal conveyor for delivering superheated steam to the product web conveyed on the conveyor. The horizontal conveyor is a sieve band, preferably with an opening degree amounting to from 50 to 90%. A method of steam treatment is also described.

Abstract: The apparatus for dyeing including simultaneous dye fixing and drying of a textile product web has a device for applying dye solution to a product web; a steam-tight housing having one or more steam treatment chambers for heat treating the moist product web; a transporting device for conveying the moist product web horizontally through the steam treatment chamber or chambers: at least one circulating device for circulating hot steam in the treatment chamber or chambers and nozzle boxes arranged in the steam-tight housing above and below the horizontally conveyed product web for blowing superheated steam at the horizontally conveyed product web. In arrangements with two treatment chambers the transport device includes a roller conveyor arranged in the region between the treatment chambers and has two guiding rollers and a pulling roller. A method of heat treatment of the textile product using the arrangement is also described.

Abstract: The method of continuous thermal treatment of a textile product with steam simultaneously provides optimum dye fixing and drying of a product web treated with a dye solution. This method includes applying a water solution of a dye to a product web to form a moist product web with the applied dye solution; transporting the moist product web with the applied dye solution through at least one treatment chamber in which the heat treatment takes place; bringing the moist product web with the applied dye solution into contact with a treatment gas including hot steam, preferably at 160-230° C., for preferably from 10 to 30 seconds, to simultaneously perform drying and dye fixing, so that the residual moisture content of the moist product web is less than or equal to its equilibrium moisture content under normal conditions.

Abstract: A of continuous treatment of a textile product web with steam is performed by applying a reactive dye on moist product web of natural fibers; bringing the moist product web with the reactive dye in contact with steam; using the steam in form of hot steam which is overheated water steam, with a temperature of 130-230° C.; transporting the product web during a steam treatment at least partially horizontally through at least one treatment chamber; and blowing the hot steam into the at least one treatment chamber onto the product web by nozzle boxes arranged above and below of the product web. The device is also provided for performing the method.

Abstract: The continuous treatment of a textile product web with steam includes subjecting a moist product web with the reactive dye applied on it to a steam treatment by bringing the moist product web with the reactive dye on it in contact with overheated water steam having a temperature of 130-230° C. for a steam treatment time of preferably 5 to 60 seconds; transporting the moist product web during the steam treatment at least partially horizontally through at least one treatment chamber; and blowing the hot steam into the at least one treatment chamber onto the moist product web by nozzle boxes arranged above and below the product web. The device for performing this method is also described.

Abstract: Continuous thermal treatment of a textile product web for dye fixing is performed by applying a dying solution on a moist product web, transporting the moist product web with the applied dying solution through at least one treatment chamber, bringing the moist product web with the applied dying solution in the treatment chamber in contact with a treatment gas which contains a hot steam, and using the treatment gas which is substantially composed of hot steam.

Abstract: A method of continuos thermal treatment of a textile product web has the steps of bringing a product web in contact with a treatment gas guided in a circulating process, introducing a product web into a steam portion having one or several steam stages in which heat steam is used as a treatment gas, introducing the product web into a steam-air portion which has one or several stages and hot steam and heated air as a treatment gas, passing the product web first through the steam portion and subsequently through the steam air portion, providing an exchange of the treatment gas between the steam stages and the stages, adjusting a relative moisture of the hot steam of the steam stages of the steam portion to the value zero, and performing the adjusting by measuring relative moistures of a first and a last steam stages and changing discharge gas quantities of the first or second steam stages and one further stage.

Abstract: In a method and a device for thermal treatment of a continuous product web by blowing of steam, a product web is transported through an inlet slot, an interior of the housing and an outlet slot and steam is blown onto the product web through nozzle openings of nozzle boxes, steam is blown onto the product web before the inlet slot of the housing in a sluice.

Abstract: Tenter driers are frequently used for drying textile webs whose edges have an increased weight per unit area or have been treated with glue. It is extremely difficult to dry the edges to the same degree of residual humidity as the remainder of the web. In the inlet region, the blower box has been replaced by blower pipes extending parallel to the chain rails. The pipes are connected to the recirculated air system of the drier and provided with nozzle apertures directed towards the web edges. Since only a low drying capacity is available, the drier either has to be extended or the throughput speed has to be decreased. With the drier according to the invention, a longitudinal section which starts at the inlet and extends over at least 20% of the total length is equipped with blower pipes (27, 28) aligned parallel to the chain rails (13, 14). Blower boxes (18, 19) are also mounted in this longitudinal section, both above and below the textile web (15).

Abstract: In a steam condenser in which the steam is condensed on tubes which are grouped together in separate nests (2) and through which cooling water flows, the tubes, arranged in rows, of a nest enclosing a hollow space (13), a cooler (14) for the non-condensable gases in arranged in the hollow space. Two nests (2) are provided which are at a distance from one another and to which steam is admitted over their entire periphery, the nest form, irrespective of the external form of the condenser, being selected in such a way that first of all a convergent flow channel (15)--accelerating the steam--and then adjoining it a divergent retaining part (16)--deflecting the steam--are formed between the nests (2) on the one side and also between one nest each and the condenser wall. The cooler (14) for the non-condensable gases is located inside a nest in the plane in which, outside the nest, the convergent steam channel merges into the divergent part.
