Abstract: The purpose of the invention is to reduce the abrasive impact of the fiber or the yarn on the rollers coated with elastic material, which are used for drafting and guiding purposes in yarn production techniques, and thus keep the operating conditions and yarn quality parameters constant. The fiber on the top rollers coated with elastic material especially in the mechanical ring compact yarn production among the yarn production techniques, is an apron cladding method, over the top roller and the bearing guide arms connected to a bearing body found on the bearing unit placed on the pressure arm, in a way that it would cover these together. The method includes the operation steps of stretching the aprons by application of tension via a tension component and, while the fiber drafting operation continues, the bearing unit carrying the aprons being shifted in the horizontal plane in certain intervals.

Abstract: The coating of the pressure roller (3) of a drawing roller frame for spinning frames comprises an outer layer and an inner layer fixed to the core of the pressure roller. The outer layer is thinner and harder than the inner layer and is embodied as an endless belt (1) which loosely surrounds the inner layer such that the belt can be displaced in relation to the inner layer. In order to improve the running of the belt, the belt is guided over a deflector rail (2), the cross-sectional area (u) of the rail being wider than the average staple length of the fibre material (F) drawn on the drawing roller frame. Furthermore, the belt is designed in such a way that it comprises a double thread interlining, one thread interlining being wound counter to the second thread interlining such that the threads of one thread interlining cross the threads of the second thread interlining.

Abstract: A drafting equipment is provided with a small double belt for spinning machines with a fiber bundling zone which follows the pair of output rollers of the main drafting field and is followed by a pair of delivery rollers. A pneumatic compression device is provided between the pair of output rollers and the pair of delivery rollers. A pneumatic compression device is provided with a small perforated belt and a suction device extending on the side of the belt away from the fiber sliver and which sucks air through the fiber sliver between the pair of output rollers and the pair of delivery rollers.

Abstract: A rail for supporting and guiding the lower belt of a drafting frame of a textile machine is provided with a coating of one or more of aluminum oxide, titanium dioxide, chromium oxide or molybdenum oxide in an oxide ceramic powder with a hardness of 800 to 1500 HV and a grain size of 45 to 5 .mu.m. A pressing arm urges the stand against its belt.

Abstract: The drafting arrangement is provided with a guide element between the front roller pair and the operative unit formed by an apron and a roller. The guide element is disposed for guiding a length of fiber between the roller of the operative unit and the front roller pair. The guide element may be of D-shaped cross-section, circular cross-section or in the form of a curved plate. Where cylindrical, the guide element may also be rotated.

Abstract: In a drafting unit for a spinning machine having an apron guide between a pair of rollers, it is provided that the bottom apron wound around a bottom roller is tensioned by means of a movable bottom apron bridge.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for the drafting section of ring spinning frames is disclosed. The apparatus includes a front cot roll apron which permits the apparatus to be operated at higher than normal draft ratios without sacrificing spinning performance or product uniformity.

Abstract: An improved fiber control for an apron drafting system of a spinning frame is disclosed which includes a rear pair of rolls (3, 6) a middle pair of rolls (2, 5), and a front pair of rolls (1, 4). A silver guidance zone is formed between upper apron 8 and lower apron 11 around rolls 5 and 2, respectively by which sliver is guided in a prescribed path. The guidance path may be configured especially to the fiber type and length by transverse projection elements (17, 18, 19) which engage lower apron 11 and are displaceable. The projection elements are displaceable perpendicular to and along the length of the sliver guidance zone and may be made to contact lower apron 11 to provide a desired shape for control of the sliver.

Abstract: A high draft apparatus in a spinning machine for forming a spun yarn from a roving or sliver. The draft apparatus comprises back rollers, apron-provided middle rollers and front rollers and a gripping and a pressing means for a sliver disposed on the front end portion of the apron so that the arrangement of fibers in the drafted sliver is regulated and a high draft ratio can be attained.

Abstract: In a drawing frame having a fibre-control system composed by two confrontingly and superposedly mounted closed-lap belts, the improvement consisting in that the upper-belt driving cylinder has a barrel-like sleeve of an elastomeric material of an appropriate hardness mounted thereon, so as to improve the fibre tow control and to adapt said cylinder to the processing requirements of tows or webs of variable bulk. It is preferred that the barrel-like sleeve is thinner at the middle section than at the end sections.

Abstract: The control system is constituted by a succession of elongate parallel control elements, made of elastomer, which extend in directions transverse to the direction of the path of the fibres to be controlled and which each have a work face and an opposite face provided with at least one longitudinal fixing rib engaged in a longitudinal slit of a tubular support part and terminated by a retention head in the said tubular support part, the drawing device including means for guiding, driving and orientating all the aforesaid tubular support parts, to ensure the displacement of the said control elements for the fibres while abutting against the other control system of the drawing device.
