Abstract:
The invention relates to a pot spinning device (2) having a spinning housing (16), a spinning centrifuge (11), which rotates at a high number of revolutions inside the spinning housing, as well as a rotatably seated centrifuge sheathing (20) arranged between the spinning housing and the spinning centrifuge, which is dragged along by the rotating spinning centrifuge (11) by means of air friction. In accordance with the invention, the spinning centrifuge (11) as well as the centrifuge sheathing (20) are seated in a contactless manner in magnetic bearings (31, 35, or respectively 18, 19).
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 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.
