摘要:
A production method of a long member including a large number of carbon nanotubes includes the steps of: (1) drawing the carbon nanotubes gradually from a first array to obtain a first web 10a; (2) bringing the first web 10a partially into contact with a first holder 12a to hold the first web 10a on the first holder 12a; (3) drawing the carbon nanotubes gradually from a second array to obtain a second web 10b; (4) bringing the second web 10b partially into contact with a second holder 12b to hold the second web 10b on the second holder 12b; and (5) placing a portion of the first web 10a and a portion of the second web 10b on each other to form a joint, the portions of the first and second webs 10a and 10b being in the vicinity of the first and second holders 12a and 12b, respectively, and being placed on each other such that width directions of the first and second webs 10a and 10b are substantially the same.

The present invention relates to a carbon nanotube strand wire capable of realizing electroconductivity that is equivalent to or higher than electroconductivity of a wire configured of a core wire made mainly of metal such as copper or aluminum, realizing excellent bendability, and also realizing further weight reduction. The carbon nanotube strand wire (2) is obtained by twisting a plurality of CNT wires (10) of a plurality of bundled CNT aggregates (11) configured of a plurality of CNTs (11a) together. A number of twists t1 of the CNT wires (10) is equal to or greater than 0 and less than 2500 T/m, and a number of twists t2 of the CNT strand wire (2) is greater than 0 and less than 2500 T/m.

A yarn producing apparatus is provided that produces carbon nanotube yarn at high speed. The yarn producing apparatus 1 includes a yarn producing unit 5 that aggregates running carbon nanotube fibers F. The yarn producing unit 5 includes a nozzle body 10, a first nozzle 20 provided in the nozzle body 10 to generate a first swirl flow, with compressed air, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the carbon nanotube fibers F running, and a second nozzle 30 provided in the nozzle body 10 to generate a second swirl flow, with compressed air, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the carbon nanotube fibers F running and opposite to the direction of the first swirl flow. The first nozzle 20 and the second nozzle 30 are provided at positions different in the direction of the carbon nanotube fibers F running in the nozzle body 10.
