Abstract
Abstract The production of plied yarn in pot spinning in which a pot is filled with yarn emerging in one direction from a reciprocating traversing tube. When the pot is filled to the desired extent a lead yarn is injected into the pot by pneumatic means in a direction opposite to the said one direction so that yarn from the traversing tube is wound around the lead yarn. The lead yarn is then withdrawn from the pot in said one direction and the yarn in the pot is wound around further yarn from the traversing tube.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
156 words
In a method wherein piled yarn is produced in a pot spinning machine having a spinning pot and a traversing tube coaxial with said pot, the improvement consisting of the steps of filling the spinning pot to a predetermined capacity with yarn delivered from the traversing tube while said traversing tube is reciprocating along the axis of said pot; injecting a lead yarn by fluid jet means into said pot so that the yarn being delivered from the traversing tube is wound around said lead yarn and, drawing the lead yarn out of the pot together with yarn from said traversing tube whereby yarn in said pot is wound around yarn led from said traversing tube, said lead yarn being injected through the bottom of the pot in a direction opposite to the direction of travel of yarn into and through the traversing tube when the traversing tube is in the lower part of the pot.
