SPINDLE HEADPIECE FOR THREAD SPINNING AND TWISTING APPARATUS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to thread twisting components of spinning or twisting, frames, and more specifically to means for preventing twisted threads from untwisting on these components.
This invention can be most successfully used in the manufacture of yarn with a large number of twists, as well as of mixed yarn and yarn of elastic fiber, such as wool.
2. Description of the Prior Art At present, the twisting components on cop of threads mounted in spinning and twisting frames consists of a spindle with a cop of threads mounted on a rotating hollow mandrel; the thread being payed out and passing into an axial channel in the mandrel; issuing from the drafting system of the frame is the another thread which is twisted during the spindle rotation, and also passes into the channel of the mandrel; both threads are twisted together, thus forming twisted yarn, which is then wound onto a receiving bobbin.
During the spindle rotation the thread unwound from the package or cop forms a balloon, causing both threads being spun to be urged toward the wall of the axial channel of the rotating spindle mandrel; tension is generally provided to prevent their untwisting.
However, when the frame is stopped, the balloon drops, and the threads are no longer pressed to the walls of the mandrel channel. As a result, the threads being spun tend to untwist under the effect of the elastic forces imposed by the twisting, making several reverse revolutions about its axis in a direction opposite to the direction of twist. The supply of yarn also untwists, and the unwound thread winds thereon, forming in place of the balloon knots or similar faults, this subsequently affects the quality of yarn.
There are no devices to remedy this trouble.
In the prior art, these yarn faults are eliminated by once again rewinding the yarn, removing discarded sections during the rewinding process this is very inconvenient, and costly.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The basic object of the invention is to provide an assembly, that prevents the thread from untwisting when the spinning frame is stopped, thus ensuring fine quality of yarn, and at the same time featuring a simple design.
With this object in view, means are provided to prevent untwisting of thread in the twisting component. According to the invention, there is provided a headpiece mounted in the top part of the twisting component; the head-piece and having a central hole for entry of both threads, and at least two holes, in its lateral sides, through which the threads are successively threaded, after which the twisting threads pass through the axial channel of the mandrel of the twisting component.
The head-piece may include a partition separating the side holes from each other.
Another embodiment includes a sleeve on the headpiece, which sleeve has an inner slot connecting the side holes of the head-piece.
Another embodiment comprises a head-piece having an inclined shaped slot connected on one side with the central hole, and on the other side with one of the lateral holes.
Details of the invention will become apparent from the following description of exemplary embodiments when taken in conjunction with the appended drawings, forming a part thereof, wherein:
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIG. 1 shows the a head-piece in sectionaccording to the invention, the mounted on a fragmentary portion of a spindle of a spinning and twisting frame; (the latter not being shown) FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the head-piece; and
FIG. 3 shows still another embodiment of the headpiece.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The arrangement to prevent untwisting of thread comprises a head-piece 1 (FIG. 1) mounted on a rotatable spindle 2 and having a central hole 3 to accommodate thread 5 unwound from package or cop 4, and thread 6 issuing from delivery rolls 7 and passing through thread guider guide 8.
On the lateral side of the head-piece 1 are holes 9 and 10, of which hole 9 serves to permit threads 5 and 6 to pass out of head-piece 1 about the outer surface, through hole 10 which guides these threads into axial channel 11 of the mandrel of spindle 2. The twisted threads continue to a receiving and winding arrangement (not shown). Inside head-piece 1 is mounted a sloping partition 12 partially separating the side holes 9 and 10 from one another. This partition is retained inside the head piece by means of a snap ring spring 13.
In another version of the arrangement, on headpiece 1 is a sleeve 14 (FIG. 2) having an inner slot 15 connecting the side holes 9 and 10.
For conveniently threading of threads 5 and 6, headpiece 1 has an inclined shaped slot 16 (FIG. 3) connected on one side with the central hole 3, and the other side communicating with the later hole 9.
Threading the thread 5 in the arrangement shown in FIG. 1 is accomplished as follows:
Spindle 2 is braked. Thread 5 is wound 011' from package or cop 4 on this spindle, and in the form of a loop it is threaded using a flexible pin successively through the central hole 3, side holes 9 and 10, then into channel 11 of the mandrel of spindle 2, and to suitable receiving and winding arrangement (not shown). When the spindle is started, the free end of the loop of thread 5 is joined or wound about thread 6 issuing from the delivery rolls 7.
Threading the arrangement shown in FIG. 2 is similar to that described above, but to simplify the threading process the head-piece is provided with sleeve 14 having the inner slot 15 connecting the side holes 9 and 10 of head-piece 1, which permits in addition to threading using a flexible pin, using pneumatic threading to guide the loop of thread 5 through the central and side holes 3, 9, l0 and further through the spindle channel 11 to a receiving and winding arrangement (not shown).
Threading with the head-piece shown in FIG. 3 is accomplished as follows after spindle 2 is stopped, thread is wound off package 4, and by means of a flexible pin or air, thread in a loop form is guided from outside the head-piece 1, through the side hole into the spindle channel 11 and further to a receiving and winding arrangement (not shown). Then a double section of thread 5 remaining outside the head-piece is wound clockwise along the surface of the head-piece and passed through the shaped slot 16 guided into the central hole 3. As the spindle is started, the free end of the loop of thread 5 is joined to thread 6 issuing from the delivery rolls 7.
In all its three versions the head-piece operate in the same manner. Spindle 2 rotates together with package 4 and headpiece I; thread 5 unwinds from package 4 and enters the central hole 3, while the spinning thread 6 is; thread 6 also enters the central hole 3. Joining each other at the central hole 3, threads 5 and 6 pass through hole 9 to the outer side surface of head-piece 1, wind thereabout at an angle; pass and through hole 10, and enter channel 11 of the spindle, they are twisted together with a number of twists equaling that of the spinning thread 6, but opposite in direction.
When the twisting frame is stopped, tension on twisted thread 6, provides and pressure of threads 5 and 6 urge them against the side or outer surface of head-piece l or within the section between the side holes .9 and 10, thus preventing untwisting of the threads and formation of loop-knots where they pass through the head-piece.
