Abstract
A splicing arrangement for the connecting of yarns, particularly of staple fiber yarns. The splicing arrangement includes a splicing head, yarn clamps, cutting devices, loop pulling devices and devices for preparing the yarn ends which were cut with respect to their length. It is provided that the devices for preparing the yarn ends each comprise a friction surface in the form of a driven apron which moves in the direction of the yarn end, the apron, together with a countersurface, forming a gap receiving the yarn end to be prepared.
Claims24
A splicing arrangement for splicing yarns comprising yarn end preparing means for preparing yarn ends to be spliced, said yarn end preparing means including:
- a first flexible apron having a fist friction surface engageable with a yarn end section,
- a countersurface facing the first friction surface of the first apron to form a yarn end receiving gap between the first friction surface and the countersurface,
- and first apron driving means for driving the first apron with the first friction surface moving toward a free end of said yarn end section to apply a frictional force on the yarn in the longitudinal direction of the yarn ends.
