Abstract
In a spinning or twisting machine, a anti-balloon ring stationarily fixed around the bobbin spindle is first sand-blasted so as to produce a predetermined degree of surface roughness, then provided with a nickel coating in order to reduce undesirable excrescences followed by a copper coating in order to reduce friction and loss of yarn resistance while permitting much higher spindle speeds in respect of an acceptable rate of wear.
Claims2
An anti-balloon device for a spinning or twisting machine comprising a ring adapted to be positioned around the bobbin spindle of the machine for controlling ballooning of textile strands, said ring having a roughened surface created by a fine sand-blasting operation, said roughened surface being covered with a first metallic coating for reducing the rough excrescences without removal thereof of the roughened surface produced by the operation of said fine sand-blasting and said surface further being covered with a second metallic coating having enhanced heat conductivity properties.
