Abstract
Abstract This invention provides for a process for the wet treatment of textiles in which in a pressure-tight high-temperature resistant container the liquor always flows outwardly laterally at an angle from vertical through the inside of the textile material, flows down on the outside of the textile material to a sump situated beneath the latter and is pumped back from the sump into the interior of the textile material. Thus the material during the process is not immersed in the liquor and the influence of the high pressures and temperatures conventionally applied upon the textiles in their wet treatment is avoided and a lower liquid to textile ratio is employed. The invention also provides an apparatus for carrying out the wet treatment of textiles, comprising a closed container, an insert member located within said container, means for supporting the textile material provided on the insert member, a liquor circulation system, a pump which communicates with the container, a heating and a cooling system, steam and coolant supply means, condensate and coolant outlets and means for measuring and controlling the level of liquid in the container.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A process for the wet treatment of textiles by a treating liquor in a pressure-tight container suitable for use at high temperatures comprising the steps of: suspending said textile material above said liquor; subjecting said textile material to the flow of said treating liquor under pressure and elevated temperature outwardly from inside through the textile material to flow therethrough laterally at an angle to the vertical and down on the outside of the textile material below it and pumping back said treating liquor into the interior of said textile material, the ratio by weight between said textile material and said treating liquor is from about 1:3 to about 1:6, respectively.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
110 words
A process for the wet treatment of textiles by a treating liquor in a pressure-tight container suitable for use at high temperatures comprising the steps of: suspending said textile material above said liquor; subjecting said textile material to the flow of said treating liquor under pressure and elevated temperature outwardly from inside through the textile material to flow therethrough laterally at an angle to the vertical and down on the outside of the textile material below it and pumping back said treating liquor into the interior of said textile material, the ratio by weight between said textile material and said treating liquor is from about 1:3 to about 1:6, respectively.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
13 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the treatment liquor is a dye.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the textile material is in the form of a yarn package.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
A process according to claim 3 in which there are a plurality of yarn packages and the same quantity of liquor is supplied under the same pressure to each yarn package the process being carried out under pressure of an inert gas.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the textile material is in the form of a cylinder of loose textile material.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
48 words
A process according to claim 5 in which there are a plurality of cylinders of loose textile material and the same quantity of liquor is supplied under the same pressure to each cylinder of loose textile material, the process being carried out under pressure of an inert gas.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
28 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the ratio by weight between said textile material and said treating liquor is from about 1:4 to about 1:5, respectively.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process according to claim 1 in which the treatment is carried out in an inert gas under a pressure higher than the evaporation pressure of the treating liquor.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
126 words
A process for the dyeing of yarn packages in a pressure-tight container by a dye suitable for use at high temperatures comprising the steps of: suspending each yarn package above said dye; subjecting each yarn package to the flow of said dye under pressure and elevated temperature outwardly from inside through the yarn package to flow therethrough laterally at an angle to the vertical and down on the outside of the yarn package below it and pumping back said dye into the interior of the yarn package, the dye ratio in said process being maintained between 1:4 and 1:5, and the process being carried out under pressure of an inert gas, the same quantity of dye being supplied under the same pressure to each yarn package.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
126 words
A process for the dyeing of yarn packages in a pressure-tight container by a dye suitable for use at high temperatures comprising the steps of: suspending each yarn package above said dye; subjecting each yarn package to the flow of said dye under pressure and elevated temperature outwardly from inside through the yarn package to flow therethrough laterally at an angle to the vertical and down on the outside of the yarn package below it and pumping back said dye into the interior of the yarn package, the dye ratio in said process being maintained between 1:4 and 1:5, and the process being carried out under pressure of an inert gas, the same quantity of dye being supplied under the same pressure to each yarn package.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
134 words
A process for the dyeing of cylinders of loose textile material in a pressure-tight container by a dye suitable for use at high temperatures comprising the steps of: suspending each cylinder of textile material above said dye; subjecting each cylinder of textile material to the flow of said treating dye under pressure and elevated temperature outwardly from inside through the textile material to flow therethrough laterally at an angle to the vertical and down on the outside of the textile material below it and pumping back said treating dye into the interior of said textile material, the dye ratio in said process being maintained between 1:4 and 1:5, and the process being carried out under pressure of an inert gas, the same quantity of dye being supplied under the same pressure to each cylinder.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
134 words
A process for the dyeing of cylinders of loose textile material in a pressure-tight container by a dye suitable for use at high temperatures comprising the steps of: suspending each cylinder of textile material above said dye; subjecting each cylinder of textile material to the flow of said treating dye under pressure and elevated temperature outwardly from inside through the textile material to flow therethrough laterally at an angle to the vertical and down on the outside of the textile material below it and pumping back said treating dye into the interior of said textile material, the dye ratio in said process being maintained between 1:4 and 1:5, and the process being carried out under pressure of an inert gas, the same quantity of dye being supplied under the same pressure to each cylinder.
