Abstract:
A vibration canceler for a shaft rotating about an axis, including an inertial ring which is fastened to the shaft in a relatively twistable manner by at least one elastic ring made of a rubber-like material. The elastic ring contacts the outer circumference of the shaft in a directly abutting manner and is untwistably pressed on to the shaft by the inertial ring.
Abstract:
A compacted yarn is produced by providing a row of orifices subsequent to drafting along which the fiber strand is guided and after which the fiber strand is subjected to a twist according to the invention the suction air flow is monitored at least at one suction location and upon falling below a threshold, a signal is generated which can be used for shutdown or to alert personnel. The result is elimination of the reduction in yarn quality which can occur when the compaction system becomes blocked by lint, fiber accumulation or the like.
Abstract:
A spinning machine in which downstream of the drafting frame and as part thereof, beyond the output rollers thereof, a suction roller is provided above the roving and cooperates with at least one counterroller below the roving to condense the roving before it is wound up on a ring-spinning or pot-spinning station.
Abstract:
A torsional vibration canceler for use on the outer periphery of a shaft which rotates about an axis and includes two enlargements. The torsional vibration canceler includes half-shells that can be pressed onto the outer periphery of the shaft and which are connected, by way of spring elements that can be deformed in the peripheral direction, to at least two inertial masses configured as segments of a circle. The inertial masses are connected to one another by a retaining elements, preferably in the form of at least one ring which surrounds the inertial masses radially and externally. The ring has an inside diameter which is greater than the diameter of at least the smallest of the enlargements.
Abstract:
A drafting frame for a spinning machine, especially a ring-spinning machine can be readily retrofitted with a compaction device adjacent the last pair of drafting rollers if the condensing zone is defined between a clamping location formed by the nip of the last roller pair and a clamping location formed by a number of elements of the compacting device against the upper roller of the last roller pair.
Abstract:
A yarn is made on a pot-spinning machine by drafting a roving and then condensing the roving via a suction roller or belt before the yarn is twisted on a pot-spinning station.
Abstract:
A yarn is produced by condensing and compacting the roving after its passage through a drafting frame by suction rollers or suction belts and then twisting and winding up the yarn without the formation of a thread balloon on a ring spinning station with a balloon-limiting finger or crown.
Abstract:
A spinning machine having a drafting frame, a condensing unit at the downstream side of the drafting frame and a spinning station for winding up the yarn and imparting twist to the roving in forming the yarn. The condensing unit comprises a disk-shaped suction rotor oriented in a plane tangent to the output rollers of the drafting frame. A limited compaction zone is formed by a shield within a suction rotor and designed to apply suction only to a limited portion of the perforated periphery thereof. The pressing roller bears against the suction rotor at the downstream side of the compaction zone.
Abstract:
Thread breakage rates of a ring-spinning machine are measured successively and/or from different zones at the spindle stations and a thread guide between a headpiece of each spindle and the output rollers of the drafting frames can be vertically adjusted in response to a difference in the thread break rates.
Abstract:
A vibration canceler for use on the outer circumference of a shaft rotating about an axis and including two enlargements. The vibration canceler includes half-shells which can be pressed on to the outer circumference of the shaft. The half-shells are joined to at least two inertial masses formed as circle segments by elastic elements which are deformable in a circumferential direction. The inertial masses are joined together by retaining elements. The inertial masses are hingedly joined by link elements and can be restrained in a ring shape by at least one lock element.
