Apparatus for producing synthetic yarns formed of bicomponent filaments

Abstract

Abstract AN APPARATUS FOR THE SPINNING OF SYNTHERIC YARNS MADE UP OF BICOMPONENT FILAMENTS COMPRISING A FEED MEANS FOR EACH LIQUID SPINNING COMPONENT AND A SPINNING ASSEMBLY HOUSING CONNECTED TO THE FEED MEANS. THE ASSEMBLY HOUSING INCLUDES A SUBSTANTIALLY HORIZONTAL SPINNERET PLATE WITH SPINNING ORIFICES ARRANGED IN A PATTERN, A CLOSABLE ACCESS MEANS AND GUIDE MEANS FOR DIRECTING THE SPINNING COMPONENTS FROM THE FEED MEANS TO THE ORIFICES IN TSHE SPINNERET PLATE. THE GUIDE MEANS IS INSERTABLE AND REMOVABLE THROUGH THE CLOSABLE ACCESS MEANS. THE ASSEMBLY HOUSING HAS A HORIZONTAL SECTION WHICH IS OBLONG AND HAS A LENGTH WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY ABOUT ONE AND ONE HALF TO ABOUT TWO TIMES ITS WIDTH AND THE SPINNERT PLATE WHICH IS PLACED WITHIN THE ASSEMBLY HOUSING HAS, IN THE HORIZONTAL PLANE, AN OBLONG CONFIGURATION AND ALSO DIMENSIONS WHICH ARE ABOUT THE SAME ORDER OF MAGNITUDE AS THOSE OF THE ASSEMBLY HOUSING. THE ASSEMBLY, IN THIS MANNER, PROVIDES A RIGID COMPACT CONSTRUCTION THAT PROMOTES RAPID AND UNIFORM HEAT TRANSFER TO THE SPINNING COMPONENTS WITHIN THE HOUSING UPON BEING PLACED IN A HEATED JACKET OR THE LIKE.
