  • Patent number: 10465313
    Abstract: A device for the thermal treatment of yarns comprising at least one inlet opening and at least one outlet opening for at least one transport means, which transports the yarn through the device, and comprising separating elements at the inlet opening and the outlet opening for thermal shielding, in order to minimise the exchange of media to the environment. The separating elements are configured to have a low bending rigidity and are arranged such that a surface load is applied onto the yarn lying on the transport means, for example a conveyor belt, which is not greater than 0.005 kg*cm?2.

  • Patent number: 7188437
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a drying unit for washing machines that is capable of fully drying the wet laundry using hot wind. A condensing duct and a drying duct are connected to a tub to circulate air in the tub. Between the drying duct and the condensing duct is disposed a drying fan. To the condensing duct is attached air cooling device for condensing air in the condensing duct by means of cool air. In the drying duct is mounted a drying heater for heating air in the drying duct to change the air into hot wind. During the drying operation of the washing machine, the air passing through the condensing duct is condensed by air, which is an unlimited resource. Consequently, consumption of energy and resources is minimized during the drying operation of the washing machine.

  • Patent number: 6036728
    Abstract: A jig is used to dye a textile web made of polyester fibers (PES fibers) or a blend of PES fibers with other fibers. Dye liquor is kept at boiling temperature or just slightly below the boiling temperature. Provided in the housed-in steam space above the dye liquor are steam-spray tubes which act on the textile web. The steam-spray tubes direct saturated steam upon the textile web as it winds onto the respective reeling lap roll.

  • Patent number: 5913904
    Abstract: In the jig type textile finishing method and apparatus of the invention, the textile material (19) passes through a heated treatment bath (20) and is rolled alternately in one direction and in the opposite direction with high frequency or microwave electromagnetic waves (24) being applied to said textile material (19) while it is being rolled in and/or out. The power of the waves is determined, as a function of the optimum temperature for the reaction that is to be implemented, in such a manner as to maintain the temperature of the assembly (5, 6) constituted by the rolled-in textile material and the bath in which it is impregnated substantially equal to or greater than said optimum temperature.

  • Patent number: 5878974
    Abstract: A device to wind and unwind a textile web onto and from a spool, when it comes into or out of a wet-processing group is disclosed. The device includes a guide and tension roll supported at the free ends of winding arms and resting on the spool. A moisture-extraction device in the form of a suction pipe is mounted immediately upstream of the guide and tension roll. The web may thus be wound onto the spool with a relatively low moisture content.

  • Patent number: 5791165
    Abstract: The small finishing installation (100) for continuous strips of textile fabric includes a steam-filled housing (2) into which feed rolls (5) can be introduced at each end. Located in the housing are sets of fabric-handling equipment disposed symmetrically with respect to the vertical plane (40) running across the middle of the housing (2). Disposed in this vertical plane (40) is a squeezer unit (37) from which the strip of fabric can pass, against each feed roll (5), through a treatment bath (30) and then over an array (20) of guide rollers disposed above an open tank (26). The continuous strip of fabric (10) can be wound back and forth between the feed rolls (5), thus making it possible to carry out a variety of different treatments.

  • Patent number: 5349711
    Abstract: Length of an elongated belt-like cloth receivable in a treatment tank is increased by a compact and simple mechanism, and, moreover, impact force applied to the cloth is enhanced, whereby efficiency in cloth treatment such as washing in water, scouring, dyeing and treatment quality are improved. A treatment tank 10 used in carrying out the invention is divided into a front chamber 12 and a rear chamber 14, and a cylindrical rotary member 28 comprising a plurality of rods 30 arranged to form a cylinder is disposed on the midway of a passage 26 communicating the two chambers. A predetermined length of the cloth 20 is fed into the treatment tank, and the cylindrical rotary member is rotated alternately in forward and reverse directions, whereby conveyance of the cloth is repeated between the front and rear chambers, and during such repetition of conveyance, a required treatment is applied to the cloth.

  • Patent number: 5046209
    Abstract: A batch dyeing machine 10 has separate imperforate compartments A and B for facilitating washing of a length of fabric as it is transported from one compartment to the other. A squeeze roll 50 prevents used wash water from passing from one compartment into the other with the fabric. By separating the compartments, wash liquid is conserved in that only one of the compartments need be filled at a time and a counterflow wash system is provided. Thus, the washing capabilities of a batch dyeing machine have been enhanced.

  • Patent number: 4866956
    Abstract: This equipment for the wet treatment of fabrics, tapes, knitted goods and similar consists of a closed loop motorized belt which is pressed onto the fabric, tape, knitted goods or similar. It is wound over the top of rollers, which are not in the bath, to encourage its sliding action and enable cyclic immersion in and emergence from the treatment liquids to be carried out. Other transmission rollers are immersed in the treatment liquids, passed through and rotated by the above fabric which can then slide, wind onto and unwind from end bobbins according to pre-established cycles. The bobbins are also placed in direct contact with the motorized belt by means of appropriate thrust devices.
