Latest Patents

Chris Bostian holds a patent for a "Detwisting mechanism for fabric processing line." This invention provides an improved upper-level de-twisting mechanism that facilitates the handling of rope form fabric as it is drawn from a bulk container, typically in wet conditions. The mechanism includes a rigid support positioned under a lifting roller and mounts a poteye through which the fabric is drawn. It features three or more grooved guide rollers that engage the lower flange of the poteye, supporting it for rotation about its axis. A reversible drive motor is mounted alongside the poteye, and drive belts are trained about the drive motor output and the grooved external contours of the poteye for controllably rotating the poteye. Resiliently biased arms, each carrying a fabric engaging roller, are mounted on the top flange of the poteye. This design ensures that rope form fabric passing through the poteye is grippingly engaged between the rollers for positive twist control over the fabric when the poteye is rotated in response to a twist sensing device.
