Abstract
A draw frame for drawing a plurality of simultaneously running inputted slivers and for combining the drawn silvers into a single outputted sliver includes a draw unit having an inlet, an outlet and a roll assembly between the inlet and the outlet for drawing the inputted slivers; a creel for accommodating a sliver-containing coiler cans for advancing simultaneously a plurality of slivers to the draw unit; a sliver guide and a sliver trumpet arranged downstream of the draw unit outlet, as viewed in a direction of sliver run, for combining the plurality of drawn slivers into the output sliver; and a guiding assembly for orienting the running inputted slivers to run linearly and parallel to one another, as viewed in a vertical direction, from the creel at least to the outlet of the draw unit.
Claims15
A draw frame for drawing a plurality of simultaneously running inputted slivers and for combining the drawn silvers into a single outputted sliver, comprising
- (a) a draw unit having an inlet, an outlet and a roll assembly between said inlet and said outlet for drawing the inputted slivers;
- (b) a creel for accommodating storage means containing a plurality of slivers and for advancing simultaneously the plurality of slivers to said draw unit;
- (c) a sliver guide and a sliver trumpet arranged downstream of said outlet, as viewed in a direction of sliver run, for combining the plurality of drawn slivers into the output sliver;
- and
- (d) guiding means for orienting the running inputted slivers to run linearly and substantially parallel to one another, as viewed in a vertical direction, from said creel at least to said outlet of said draw unit.
