Abstract: An energy efficient apparatus and method for the continuous heat treatment of a carpet yarn or the like is disclosed, and which includes a conveyor extending through a heat treatment chamber, and with the conveyor comprising a number of endless belts which are adapted to support the yarn in downwardly hanging relaxed helically arranged loops. The lower portions of the loops are supportingly lifted during movement through each of the entrance and exit openings of the chamber, which permits the dimensions of the openings in the chamber to be minimized and thereby reduce heat loss therethrough.
Abstract: The invention is concerned with a machine for drawing yarn hanks from advancing hank carrying supports and doffing the drawn hanks on a carriage or container or conveyor belt. The machine comprises a pliers holder head wherein the pliers, each formed of two or more rods movable near one another, can be adjusted in spacing for adaptation to various dimensions of hanks. The head is rotatable about a horizontal axis to arrange the hanks in horizontal direction and is tiltable or upsettable about a further horizontal axis. Furthermore, the head is mounted to be movable parallel to the extension of the hank carrying supports, and preferably also parallel to the advancement or feeding of the hank carrying supports.
