A collision discriminating apparatus for vehicles having a collision detection device mounted on a part of the vehicle to detect the deformed amount of a collided portion deformed by collision of a collision object against the vehicle, and a collision object presuming device for presuming what object collided against the vehicle on the basis of the deformed amount of the collided portion detected, and the vehicle speed when the vehicle collided.

Collision discriminating apparatus for vehicles

A spinning unit of an open-end spinning machine is disclosed which comprises a rotor having an inner wall, a bottom portion and an open end opposite to said bottom portion and arranged to rotate about a center axis perpendicular to said bottom portion; and a stationary closing member projecting into a spinning chamber of said rotor to thereby close the open end of said rotor and provided with a fiber supply duct which opens toward the inner wall of the rotor, and a yarn guide hole which opens in an end surface thereof opposite to the bottom portion of the rotor. The fiber supply duct is arranged in the closing member so that an inner wall of the fiber supply duct located on a side of the rotational center of the rotor is extended to be near to the rotational center of the rotor or to be over the rotational center of the rotor. The width of the fiber supply duct is established to be not larger than 90 percent of the diameter of the closing member.

Spinning unit in open-end spinning machine

An open-end spinning unit is provided which has a spinning rotor open on one side and a bottom wall and an inner wall. A closing element covers the open side of the rotor and includes a fiber supply duct. To enhance the air conveyance of fibers to the inner wall, at least one suction opening is provided downstream of an outlet opening of the fiber supply duct in the closing element so that an airstream directed from the outlet opening toward the suction opening is generated in the same direction as the direction of rotation of the rotor. This invention is applicable not only to a forced-exhaustion type of unit but also to a self-exhaustion type of unit.

Open-end spinning unit

A fiber control apparatus in an open end spinning frame, which is a spinning rotor provided with a structure capable of producing a rotary stream by which breaking or bending of fibers or formation of floating fibers in a spinning chamber of the rotor can be effectively controlled. This structure is mainly characterized by the arrangement of the exhaust vents formed in the spinning rotor.

A rotor type open-end spinning unit in which in order to prevent blowing of air to the rear of an outlet of a fiber transporting channel formed in a spinning body and impingement of an air stream from the fiber transporting channel against the back face of a separator, the rear end of the outlet of the fiber transporting channel on the central side of a rotor is expanded forward of an imaginary line, connected between the rear end of the channel outlet furthest from the center of the rotor and the center of the rotor, and the angle .alpha. between the face of the fiber transporting channel confronting the combing roller and the plane intersecting the axis of the rotor at a right angle is made substantially equal to the taper angle .theta. of the back face of the separator.

A flexible type rapier loom having a loom body in which a shed is formed in warp threads, a wheel rotatably mounted on the loom body and oscillatedly driven back and forth, a flexible tape of a magnetic and elastic material attached at one end thereof to a circumference of the wheel and carrying a weft holder at the other end thereof, and a plurality of magnetic attracting mechanisms provided on the outer circumference of the wheel to attract the flexible tape to the outer circumference of the wheel by strong magnetic forces, thereby inserting the flexible tape into the shed and withdrawing the flexible tape from the shed to insert a weft into the shed in an assured manner even at a high speed operation of the loom.
