Abstract
The apparatus comprises at least two spaced parallel discs having a relatively small thickness and mounted on one rotary shaft, and an intermediate disc having a relatively large thickness and mounted on the other shaft between the discs of small thickness. The two shafts are spaced from each other and the discs having small and large thicknesses have diameters such that the peripheral portions of the discs overlap one upon the other to form intersections therebetween on the rear and front sides. The yarn to be twisted is threaded through an intersection on the rear side, about the periphery of the intermediate disc and then through an intersection on the front side.
Claims7
Friction type yarn false twisting apparatus consisting essentially of two parallel spaced apart rotary shafts, means for rotating said shafts in the same direction, at least two relatively thin spaced apart discs mounted on one of said shafts and a relatively thick disc on the other shaft located between said thin discs with axial spaces therebetween so as to slightly overlap with each other to form intersections between the peripheral portions of respective discs at angularly spaced points of the peripheral portions thereof whereby yarn is threaded successively through one of said intersections, diagonally across the peripheral surface of said thick disc and then through the other intersection thereby applying a flase twist to said yarn.
