Abstract
In known spinning pots the barrel has an integral base and while the barrel portion may withstand stresses caused by centrifugal forces exerted by the wet cake expanding, the flat bottom base is unable to do so. When discarding the pot, the base also has to be discarded. The present invention provides a spinning pot in which the base is formed separate from a cylindrical barrel and the two are connected by a locating driving spigot. Additionally the base is provided with a bushing in two parts, the wearing part is removably fitted on the main part which is integral with the base.
Claims8
A spinning pot for twisting and winding synthetic textile yarns comprising:
- a barrel defining two open ends;
- a removable lid located at one end of the barrel spanning the diameter of the barrel and having a locating step concentric with the barrel;
- a base plate slidingly supporting the edge of the other end of the barrel and projecting into the barrel concentrically with the barrel;
- locking means projecting from the base plate into a corresponding recess defined by an inner wall of the barrel during rotation of the barrel to allow the barrel to expand uniformly without lifting off from the base plate;
- and
- a bushing have a first member integral with the base plate and a second member fixed to a rotatable shaft of a motor, said second member engaging said first member for rotation of said barrel upon activation of said motor.
