Abstract:
On each draft element of a ring spinning frame, two pieces of short-staple roving from the roving bobbin enter into the draft mechanism to be drafted though a guide funnel in parallel, two pieces of filament are fed from the back of the front roller, and combine with two pieces of roving at front jaw respectively. The drafted two pieces of roving and filament are output from the front jaw and enter into the twisting triangle area to be twisted, and then are wound onto a yarn bobbin to produce yarn. Based on the relative position of the two pieces of roving and two pieces of filament, different yarns can be produced. Furthermore, multi-component yarn, such as core structure, wrapped structure, strand-like structure, can be produced on a ring spinning frame. The structure of yarn can be precisely determined. Special fiber yarn can be produced on traditional spinning frame.
Abstract:
A substantially torqueless composite dual core-spun yarn (10) is produced by introducing two slivers (30A,30B) forming a covering (30) together with a central (20) core in a spinning triangle (40). The core (20) is fed overtwisted S or Z and the slivers (30A,30B) have an opposite Z or S twist corresponding to about 30% to 70% of the twist of the fed overtwisted core (20) that detwists during spinning. The inelastic core (20) is fed at controlled speed to compensate for the angle of feed and to compensate for detwisting, and is guided into the spinning triangle (40) by a guide groove (52) in a feed roller (50).
Abstract:
A heat and flame resistant sewing thread having a core strand formed of glass material filaments is wrapped with a sheath of staple fibers spun about the core strand A lubricant is applied along the core strand to assist in the wrapping of the core strand with the sheath fibers. The sheath fibers include a series of microdenier fibers and generally will be ring spun about the core strand.
Abstract:
A substantially torqueless composite dual core-spun yam (10) has a substantially inelastic central hard core (20) covered with a dual-spun fiber covering (30). The central hard core (20) has an elongation at break less than 50% and a Z or S twist, and the fiber covering (30) comprises fibers twisted on the core (20) with an S or Z twist opposite to that of the core. The opposite twists of the core (20) and of the covering (30) exert opposite and substantially equal torques. This yarn is produced by introducing two slivers (30A,30B) forming the covering (30) and a central (30) core in a spinning triangle (40). The core (20) is fed overtwisted S or Z and the slivers (30A,30B) have an opposite Z or S twist corresponding to about 30% to 70% of the twist of the fed overtwisted core (20) that detwists during spinning. The inelastic core (20) is fed at controlled speed to compensate for the angle of feed and to compensate for detwisting, and is guided into the spinning triangle (40) by a guide groove (52) in a feed roller (50).
Abstract:
To produce a mock yarn which is similar in appearance to a true yarn with respect to the ability to discern the components of the mock yarn after the twist has been imparted to the mock yarn, the rovings or slubbings forming the mock yarn, after drafting separately but parallel to one another in a drafting frame, are subjected separately to condensing and compaction by suction rollers or belts provided with rows of perforations. Thus compacted and condensed rovings are then combined, twisted and wound up as mock yarns. A core thread can be introduced into each roving or into at least one of the rovings upstream of the last pair of drafting rolls or immediately upstream of the condensing unit for a core mock yarn.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a composite yarn of staple fibers and continuous multifilament yarn. The multifilament yarn is made from non-set, textured, no oil, polyester and first pretensioned before entering a spinning chamber where it is co-spun with the staple fibers which is made from pima cotton. The tension is relaxed after passing through the spinning chamber to allow the filaments of the yarn to expand and form a matrix to which the staple fibers can adhere. The expanded filaments cause the staple fibers to be tightly wound around the core. A composite yarn is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A core wrap system is provided in which a core strand and wrap strands spaced from said core strand on each side of said core strand are passed from the nip of a pair of rollers to a stationary support surface that is outwardly, downwardly curved, and which includes an open channel therein which is outwardly, downwardly curved along the surface; wherein the core strand is passed through the channel from the nip; wherein the wrap rovings are passed from the nip to converge upon and wrap around the core strand in the channel to form wrapped yarn in the channel; and wherein wrapped yarn then is passed through a ring traveler to a wind-up spindle.
Abstract:
The present friction spinning apparatus includes a draw frame section with an entrance trumpet including first and second fiber sliver guiding passageways for forming a three component corespun yarn. One of the guiding passageways directs a core roving into the draw frame section while the other sliver guiding passageway directs a core wrapper sliver into the draw frame section so that the core wrapper fibers surround the core fibers. Wrapping fibers are then wound about the core and core wrapper fibers in an elongated throat extending between a pair of rotating suction drums.
Abstract:
A process for manufacturing reinforced false twist yarns includes employing braking rolls, drawing bands, pulling rollers, twisting rolls, and yarn guides to manufacture a reinforced false twist yarn from first and second fiber rovings and from a continuous fiber yarn. The yarn guides are separated from one another such that, when the first roving is combined with the second roving and continuous fiber yarn, untwisted regions of the first fiber roving are in substantially non-overlapping relationship with untwisted regions of the second fiber roving.
Abstract:
A novel roving, and spun yarn produced from the roving, have a core and a sheath arrangement with substantially 100 percent of a first type of fiber in the sheath, and for a second type of fiber having distinctly different properties than the first fiber, about 75-90 percent in the core and about 25-10 percent in the sheath. Yarns having a cheaper fiber in the center (e.g. polyester) and a more expensive fiber on the outside (e.g. wool), or one having a higher strength core fiber and a more luxurious sheath fiber, can be produced. A sliver of first fibers and a distinct sliver of second fibers are fed in generally parallel paths. The slivers are continuously drafted to produce two distinct drafted slivers, and the path of at least one of the drafted slivers is changed so that the two slivers proceed in intersecting paths, and at substantially the same speed. The first fibers are continuously caused to wrap around the second fibers, with an angle of intersection between the two paths in the range of 60.degree.-120.degree., to produce a composite drafted sliver-roving, which is twisted to produce a roving. The roving is ring spun to produce a spun yarn with about 75-90 percent of the second fibers in the core and about 25-10 percent in the sheath, and substantially 100 percent of the first fibers in the sheath.
