PURPOSE:To reduce an amount of waste yarn and to prevent swelling of thickness of ending part, by setting suction pipes for supporting yarn end at the front and rear of an ending member, respectively, providing a guide device with a gripper to introduce yarn end to either of the suction pipes. CONSTITUTION:The suction pipes 45 and 46 are set at the front and rear of the ending member 37 of the yar...

A method and apparatus are disclosed for winding at least a layer of separate fibers or groups of fibers onto a rotating support while modifying the width of the layer by moving the layer between two extreme positions perpendicular to the direction of fiber travel and simultaneously moving each fiber or group of fibers in its own plane of motion, offset in relation to a vertical plane at an angle ...

Pneumatic yarn splicing method and apparatus for spun yarns. Suction nozzles for controlling yarn ends are arranged on both the sides of a splicing nozzle with a nozzle hole for jetting a compressed fluid. The sucking action of the yarn end control nozzle is stopped when or after the treatment of the yarn ends is completed, and then, a compressed fluid is jetted from the splicing nozzle to effect ...

A centrifugal separator comprising a circular centrifuge separation channel having an inlet for receiving a liquid to be separated and an outlet for providing components of the liquid in separated layers at different radial locations, a collection chamber for receiving the separated layers, the chamber having first, second and third outlets in the collection chamber for removing components at diff...

In fan-beam computed tomography apparatus, timing reference pulses, normally occurring at intervals t, for data transfer and reset of the many integrators (approx. 500) in the signal path from the detector array 10, are generated from the scan displacement, e.g. using a graticule 19 and optical sensor 20, to relate the measurement paths geometrically to the body section 1. Sometimes, a slow scan r...

It is known to apply coatings which have desired characteristics, e.g. wear resistance, thermal barrier capabilities anti-oxidation, to articles the material of which does not have the desired characteristic, wherein the coating is applied directly to the article. Some article materials, e.g. Titanium are highly reactive which immediately obviates several known methods of applying coatings. The in...

The compressed-air tubing (5) leading to the splicing chamber (1) of the yarn splicing device is provided with a combined dosing and atomizing valve (7) through which the splicing air passes and which can be actuated by the splicing air injected; thus liquid is applied to the splice. The dosing and atomizing valve (7) has a dosing chamber (22) which is connected alternately to a container of liqui...

In a driving gear for front and rear wheels of automobile, comprising an engine with a crank shaft disposed in the direction of width of the car body, a transmission means supported on an engine case at one side axially of said crank shaft, a clutch provided between the engine and the transmission, a first differential gear coupled to the transmission, a second differential gear transmitting one o...

Snarls are formed at winding machines and the like when the thread tension is reduced. By reducing the angle alpha which the thread forms with the end surface or face of the delivery bobbin or spool the friction between the thread and the bobbin edge can be increased to such an extent that no thread coils or turns can disengage from the surface of the delivery bobbin and become snarled even when...
