Process and device for alternately giving a yarn an 'S' twist or a 'Z'

A linear course of thread is required for a high speed friction false-twisting unit. For this purpose, the region of travel of the thread through the center of a three spindle disk set triangle should be freely accessible. One of the disk sets is adapted to be swung out on a lever from the other two disk sets. A toothed belt drive is used both in the case of a tangential belt drive and in units driven by an electric motor. A further advantage is that this arrangement can be used in units which have the possibility of a change of the center-to-center distance. The belts from driving rollers which drive the disk set spindles are held outside the center of the disk triangle through which the thread passes.

Three disk set friction false-twisting unit with swung out set of disks

A frictional false twisting unit including a plurality of driven shafts, a driven pulley on one of the shafts, an externally arranged motor with a drive shaft, an endless loop toothed belt between the drive shaft and the driven pulley. The shafts are on a carriage or base plate which is moveable or swingable with respect to either the motor or a base plate on which the motor is disposed. The shaft carrying base plate or carriage is movable to slacken the toothed belt, enabling removal of the driven pulley from the toothed belt and removal of the shafts from the unit. The thread monitoring devices of the unit remain with the unit while the shafts are removed. Channels for the lateral runs of the toothed belt prevent excessive spread of the belt when it is slack and when the driven pulley is removed. A guide beneath the belt prevents the belt from moving down axially when the belt is slack and the driven pulley is removed.

Frictional false-twisting unit with electromotive drive

A friction false twisting unit having three spindles and respective plurality of disks on each spindle. One spindle and its disks are on a swingable housing which swings out with respect to a stationary housing holding the other two spindles. A lower thread guide is beneath the lowest disk on the first spindle on the swingable housing. The lower thread guide eyelet opening opens toward the front spindle on the stationary housing. The lowest disk on that spindle is a thread guide disk, not a texturing disk. An upper stationary thread guide above the disks has an eyelet opening toward the rear of the housing and toward a respective lateral side of the housing depending upon whether an S twist or a Z twist is being applied to the thread, and the center of the eyelet opening of the upper thread guide is off the center of the triangle defined by the spindles.

Threading a friction false twisting unit

A device for the false twisting of synthetic threads is provided with a plurality of friction rotors, each constructed of a reusable central bore and an expendable composite ring that is form-fitted and force-fitted to said base so as to be conveniently removable therefrom for replacement when the friction coating along the outer edge of the ring has worn.
