Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
In apparatus for carrying out false twisting of a yarn of the type comprising a pair of opposing rotary discs between which the yarn is clamped to be false twisted, the improvement which comprises means for supporting said rotary discs to be relatively movable towards and away from each other, and spring means for urging said rotary discs to face each other with a predetermined gap.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
In apparatus for carrying out false twisting of a yarn of the type comprising a pair of opposing rotary discs between which the yarn is clamped to be false twisted, the improvement which comprises means for supporting said rotary discs to be relatively movable towards and away from each other, and spring means for urging said rotary discs to face each other with a predetermined gap.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 80 words
In an apparatus for carrying out false twisting of a yarn of the type comprising a pair of opposing rotary discs between which the yarn is clamped to be false twisted, the improvement which comprises means for supporting said rotary discs to be relatively movable towards and away from each other, and means for urging said rotary discs to face each other with a predetermined gap, said means for urging said rotary discs comprises the weight of the discs themselves.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 80 words
In an apparatus for carrying out false twisting of a yarn of the type comprising a pair of opposing rotary discs between which the yarn is clamped to be false twisted, the improvement which comprises means for supporting said rotary discs to be relatively movable towards and away from each other, and means for urging said rotary discs to face each other with a predetermined gap, said means for urging said rotary discs comprises the weight of the discs themselves.
