Abstract
Filaments or yarn are twisted by means of an arrangement provided with three at least partly hollow shafts rotating at equal or different rotating speeds and in the same or different sense, while the fibrous material is guided so as to pass alternately through the hollow shafts when taken off from a supply package and to carriers fixed to these shafts, to be thereby twisted and taken off by a take-up device.
Claims6
An arrangement for twisting of fibrous material while moving said material along a predetermined path, comprising in combination:
- a frame,
- at least three partly hollow shafts rotatably supported within said frame, said shafts being situated one behind the other,
- a carrier for the processed fibrous material mounted on each of said shafts, means for rotating said shafts,
- a stationary hollow support for holding a supply package of the fibrous material to be processed, said support being situated between the middle shaft and one of the outer shafts,
- a filament brake at one end of said hollow support,
- a take-up device for the processed fibrous material behind the second outer shaft,
- guiding elements for the fibrous material disposed along the path of the processed fibrous material, for guiding said fibrous material from the supply package over said filament brake through the hollow support, into the hollow of the middle shaft, to the carrier fixed on said shaft, to the hollow of one of the outer shafts, to the carrier fixed on said shaft, to the carrier fixed on the other outer shaft, to the hollow of said other outer shaft and to the take-up device.
