A method and an apparatus for stuffer box crimping a spun multifilament yarn, wherein the yarn is packed in a crimping device to form a yarn plug. After cooling the yarn plug, it is unraveled into a yarn. In so doing, the position of the unraveling point is adjusted by varying the withdrawal speed of the yarn. At the same time when the withdrawal speed is varied, a signal is generated for controlling at least one of the parameters of the crimping device, which influences the formation of the yarn plug, so that it is possible to produce a uniformly crimped yarn.

A method and apparatus for winding a continuously advancing yarn, wherein the yarn is wound into a package that is formed on a rotating tubular core, the yarn being traversed by a yarn guide within a traverse stroke. At the beginning of each traverse stroke, the yarn guide is accelerated within a reversal length to a guiding speed, and after traversing the traverse length it is decelerated within a second reversal length. The yarn traversing mechanism includes a belt drive system for reciprocating the yarn guide and which is controlled by a programmable control device such that the yarn guide is moved within a traverse stroke which is axially shorter than the package length and which is reciprocated between the ends of the package without changing the length of the traverse stroke.

Method and apparatus for winding a yarn into a package

A yarn winding machine for winding a continuously advancing yarn into packages, the yarn being guided in a yarn traversing mechanism which includes a traversing unit and a grooved roll downstream thereof in the direction of the advance of the yarn. To transfer the yarn from a full package mounted on one winding spindle to an empty tube mounted on another winding spindle, the spindle mounting the full yarn package is moved to a doffing position and the spindle mounting the empty winding tube is moved to the winding position. The machine is provided with a yarn deflection device, which comprises a guide plate extending parallel to the circumference of the grooved roll, and a yarn guide adapted for movement in a direction parallel to the winding spindles. By rotating the guide plate, the yarn can be removed from the traversing mechanism without significantly changing its looping, and the yarn guide is then adapted to engage the advancing yarn and move the yarn into engagement with a yarn catching slot on the empty winding tube.

Yarn winding apparatus and method

A yarn traversing apparatus for reciprocating a running yarn to form a wound yarn package, and wherein the yarn is reciprocated by sequential contact with oppositely rotating rotator blades. The blades can each be driven at a variable rotational speed, so that irrespective of the position of the yarn radially along the length of the rotator blades, the traversing speed of the yarn can be controlled so as to follow a predetermined traversing speed profile, which may be constant or variable.

A method and apparatus for controlling a yarn winding machine, wherein a yarn is wound at a constant speed to a package on a driven winding spindle. A contact roll lies against the surface of the package. To enable an increasing package diameter, the center to center distance between the contact roll and the winding spindle is changed as a function of a variation in the rotational speed of the contact roll. To this end, the variation of the rotational speed of the contact roll is measured in each of a sequential series of predetermined time intervals T and converted into a control signal for changing the position of either the winding spindle or the contact roll.

Control method and apparatus for a yarn winding machine

A method and apparatus for winding a continuously advancing yarn, wherein the yarn is wound into a package that is formed on a tubular core, the yarn being traversed by a yarn guide within a traverse stroke. At the beginning of each traverse stroke, the yarn guide is accelerated within a reversal length to a guiding speed, and after traversing the traverse length it is decelerated within a second reversal length. The acceleration and/or deceleration of the yarn guide are controllable, so as to modify the yarn deposit in the package edges.

Method of diagnosing failures in a production process of a synthetic filament yarn, in which a first process parameter dependent on the process control is continuously measured and evaluated, and in which as a function of the evaluation or course derived therefrom an indication signal is generated, there being continuously measured and evaluated at least a second reference parameter dependent on the process control, and the indication signal being generated, when an error-typical behavior is found in the first and in at least one additional parameter.

A method and apparatus for producing a ribbon free randomly wound yarn package is disclosed, and wherein a plurality of critical winding ratios at which undesirable pattern formations or ribbons would normally occur are determined and stored in a microprocessor control unit. During the winding operation, the spindle speed and traversing frequency are monitored by sensors and are transmitted to the control unit, and the control unit computes the optimum time for rapidly changing the traversing frequency so that the actual winding ratio moves rapidly through each of the approaching critical winding ratios. The original traversing frequency is re-established after having passed beyond each of the critical winding ratios.

Bobbin transport devices with a swingable carrier and a bobbin receiving member adapted in a first pivot position to align with a bobbin on a winding machine, a second swingable carrier with its own bobbin receiving member which aligns with the first bobbin receiving member, a shifting member for varying the distance between the two bobbin receiving members, e.g., a piston rod adapted to engage the bobbin on a slide or trolley member for one swingable carrier, and a rack and pinion or pressurized fluid operated lift for the aforementioned structures.

Bobbin elevators in bobbin transport devices

Winding machines having a traversing member, a contact roller, said roller or a winding tube chuck being mounted on a linearly movable carriage moved by piston-cylinder members, pneumatically operated control systems connected with said piston-cylinder members to move said carriage horizontally or vertically relative to the winding package or the contact roller, and frictionlessly operating membrane cylinder(s) mounting a support member for the carriage-mounted chuck or contact roller on the carriage, the pneumatic control system and membrane cylinder(s) maintaining constant pressure between the winding package and contact roller.

Bobbin transport apparatus movable along a textile machine front in a prescribed path for the conveyance of bobbins to be fed in and finished bobbins to be removed by means of an automatic bobbin changer in multi-station, multilevel textile machines.

Movable bobbin transport apparatus

An automatic spool-changing system for textile machines with an array of high-speed winding heads, for example of the type having a spool revolver and a lossless thread transfer device. The system has a conveyor moving along the machine front and a spool changer with a gripper movable between the conveyor and a spool holder in a spool-changing position. The conveyor is located below and in generally the same vertical plane with the spool holder, and the gripper, which is arranged for both rotation and axial translation, is mounted for movement along a three-legged spool doffing and spool-donning path extending forwardly of the machine front. Two embodiments are shown. In the first, a separate empty-spool magazine is provided and the conveyor merely serves to carry away the empty spools. In the second, the conveyor serves for the transportation both of full spools and empty spools; in this case the gripper has two angularly displaced heads so that it can execute a spool-doffing and spool-donning operation simultaneously. Controls for the spool-changing system are also disclosed.
