Abstract
The size applicator includes first and second spaced-apart squeeze rolls supported for rotation on a common horizontal axis and having their lower peripheral surface portions at least partially submerged in size solution contained in an open top pan. A single combination immersion and squeeze roll is positioned between the first and second squeeze rolls and on a common horizontal azis with said first and second squeeze rolls. The lower peripheral surface of the combination immersion and squeeze roll is also at least partially submerged in the size solution and pressure engagement is applied between the combination roll and the first and second squeeze rolls to form a pair of yarn squeezing nips therebetween. The sheet of textile yarns is directed into the size applicator and through the nip of the first squeeze roll with the combination roll, beneath the combination roll, and through the nip of the combination roll with the second squeeze roll to provide a pair of successive squeezing actions on the sheet of textile yarns passing through the size applicator.
