Patent number: 11946200Abstract: A stranding machine is provided for producing a cord from a plurality of wires, preferably metal wires. The stranding machine has a stranding device for stranding the wires, including at least one rotatably mounted deflecting roller for deflecting the cord and at least one guide device for guiding the cord. The guide device is arranged in such a way that the cord can be guided on a straight line from the guide device to the deflecting roller in such a way that the cord is pressed against a first flank of the deflecting roller. As the cord is deflected by the deflecting roller, the cord moves from the first flank into the roller base of the deflecting roller.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 2019Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Maschinenfabrik Niehoff GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Jurgen Kohl, Mathias Schmidt, Helmut Lammermann, Andreas Kraus

Patent number: 11235945Abstract: A device as well as a method for determining the diameter of a yarn balloon (B) formed by a continuous yarn at a workstation (1) of a yarn balloon forming textile machine. The workstation (1) comprises an electromagnetically functioning sensor means (33), designed and arranged in such a way that at least two interruptions of a measuring beam (42) of the sensor means (33) are caused by the yarn (5, 25) forming the yarn balloon (B) during every rotation of the yarn balloon (B) during the operation of the workstation (1), and in that the time interval between the interruptions of the measuring beam (42) can be recorded by the sensor means (33) and used for calculating the diameter of the yarn balloon (B).Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2017Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: Saurer Technologies GmbH & CO. KGInventors: Magnus Hiepp, Walter Pede-Vogler, Alexander Thaler

Patent number: 10196761Abstract: A method for operating a spindle (2) of a two-for-one twisting or cabling machine which has an adjustable balloon-yarn-guide-eye (9), wherein for the operation of the spindle (2) under production conditions, the balloon-yarn-guide-eye (9) is adjusted, on the basis of a measured value (i) correlating with the energy consumption of the spindle drive (3), to a first operating position (AP1), in which a position-dependent minimum of the energy consumption of the spindle drive (3) is reached.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2016Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Saurer Germany GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Andrej Raisich, Jürgen Schnitzler

Patent number: 9175425Abstract: A hybrid cord formed from a plurality of component plies wherein at least two of the plies are of unequal ply length regardless of the twist of the plies and at least one of the plies has a length that is from 1 to 50 percent longer than the other plies and a method of providing a cord with predetermined twist and component ply lengths.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2013Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: E I DU PONT NEMOURS AND COMPANYInventors: Nathan W. Love, Brian R. France, Mark Allan Lamontia, Clifford K Deakyne

Patent number: 7802418Abstract: A method and apparatus for production of a yarn, by plying, twisting or covering several basic yarns, subjected to a prior transformation, is provided. At least one of the basic yarns is different from the others and/or is subjected to a different prior transformation. The prior transformation may be carried out in parallel in the same machine, by independent transformation members able to be independently controlled. A slackening of yarn tension resulting from the prior transformation to give the desired tension at an assembly point is carried out on yarn feeding devices. Routing of the yarns is achieved by guide members towards the point of assembly, where the staple yarns are combined and arranged in parallel. A bobbin receives the assembled yarns in a device, constituting or associated with a positive feed device operating without slippage with relation to the yarn.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2005Date of Patent: September 28, 2010Assignee: Rieter Textile Machinery FranceInventor: Christophe Vega

Patent number: 6295798Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for manufacturing a steel cord. A method according to the present invention comprises the steps of: combining a plurality of the steel filaments supplied from the bobbin by means of the guide rollers; applying a twist pattern to the combined filaments by rotating a pair of flyers arranged between a pair of turn rollers in the counterclockwise direction, and advancing them; applying a further twist pattern to the advanced cord by rotating another pair of flyers arranged between another pair of turn rollers in the reverse direction; stabilizing the cord by means of the overtwist; and winding the resulted cord. The method and apparatus for manufacturing the steel cord have effects that productivity can be improved up to two times or six times even with the same revolution, as compared with the manufacturing apparatus of the prior art.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 1999Date of Patent: October 2, 2001Assignee: Hyosung CorporationInventors: Dal Hyang Bae, Yong Min Park, Ju Seok Koh
