Abstract
The machine comprises: two or more modules, each having two containers and each container having two vertical vessels with respective open upper ends; a bottom portion places the vessels in communication with each other. Each module has two, alternately operating, hydraulic fabric drive means, situated above the open upper ends of the vessels; for each module a pumping means draws liquor from the containers, forces it through a filter and sends it to the hydraulic drive means. A fan blows air to a guide means for leading the fabric from one container to another and the guide means is provided at the top thereof with a cylindrical configuration having a horizontal generating line allowing the air through and forming an air cushion between the fabric and the guide means.
Claims11
A machine for the wet treatment of fabrics, by a supply of liquor, the machine having an input device for the slow infeed of the fabric and a delivery device for the slow delivery of the fabric, comprising:
- (a) at least two modules, each one having a first container and a second container, each container defining a first generally vertical vessel having an open upper end, a second generally vertical vessel having an open upper end and a bottom portion placing said vessels in communication one with the other;
- (b) two, alternately operating hydraulic fabric drive means, respectively situated above the open upper end of one vessel of the first container and above the open upper end of an adjacent vessel of the second container;
- (c) a pumping means for each module, capable of drawing the liquor from the first and second containers and delivering it to said hydraulic drive means;
- (d) a filter inserted in said pumping means;
- (e) a fan;
- and (f) a guide means for leading the fabric from one to the other container of the same module, said guide means receiving air from said fan and having at the top thereof a cylindrical configuration having a horizontal generating line, allowing said air to pass therethrough to form an air cushion of pneumatic pulley between the fabric and said guide means.
