PURPOSE:To prevent both engaging impact and an engine racing by configurating a device in such a way that a hydraulic line pressure is applied as it is to a starting clutch until the difference between the revolving speed of a fluid coupling and a turbine speed reaches the specified value since the time when the change-over to a running position has been effected. CONSTITUTION:A device as referred...

A splicing apparatus for spun yarns comprises a splicing member which has a cylindrical splicing hole, a slit for insertion of the yarns and a jet nozzle jetting a compressed fluid and opened to the splicing hole in the tangential directions, and yarn end control nozzles, yarn cutting devices, a yarn guiding means and yarn clamping devices, which are arranged in sequence on both sides of the splic...

A splicing apparatus for spun yarns includes a splicing member having a splicing hole and a jet nozzle jetting a compressed fluid. Yarn end control nozzles, yarn cutting devices, a yarn gathering lever and yarn clamping devices are arranged in sequence on both sides of the splicing member.
