Abstract
Abstract A spinning unit for spinning fiber-forming polymers having a high pressure pump mounted on a pump base, and an interconnecting nozzle unit disposed adjacent said pump base within an insulated housing. A draw spindle threaded at one end and having a shoulder spaced from the threaded end, secures the pump base to the nozzle unit, the latter having a threaded opening to receive the threaded end of the spindle, the pump base having a wall against which said shoulder abuts to put the spindle in tension as it is tightened into said threaded opening.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
185 words
An improved Spinning unit, particularly for the melt spinning of high polymers, such as polyesters, polypropylene and polyamides, comprising a spinning pump mounted on a pump base and a nozzle unit, disposed within a housing and adapted to be pressed against the pump base by means of a horizontal screw connection means which is independent of the housing, characterized by the fact that the screw connection means comprises: at least one threaded draw spindle which has a threaded portion adjacent to one of its ends and which includes a shoulder that is spaced from the one end and that is adapted to abut against the nozzle unit or the pump base; and a counter-thread portion situated in the pump base or the nozzle unit; the draw spindle permeating the nozzle unit and the pump base and having its threaded portion adapted to be threadedly interconnected with the counter-thread portion by rotation of the draw spindle about its longitudinal axis; the nozzle unit and the pump base being drawn and pressed together by and between the shoulder and the interconnection of the thread and counter-thread portions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
39 words
The Spinning unit in accordance with claim 1, characterized by the fact that the counter-thread portion of the screw connection means is situated in the nozzle unit and the shoulder of the draw spindle abuts against the pump base.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
54 words
The spinning unit in accordance with claim 1, characterized by the fact that the spinning pump, the pump base and the draw spindle are combined to form a unitary assembly which can be withdrawn from the spinning unit, together with insulation and a filling block that are disposed between the pump and the housing.
