US Patent:

45288097, Jul 16, 1985

Filed:

Oct 29, 1980

Appl. No.:

6/201815

Inventors:

Ira Schwartz - Villanova PA
William K. Wyatt - West Chester PA

Assignee:

Textured Yarn Company, Inc. - Kennett Square PA

International Classification:

D02G 334
D02G 336
D02G 342

US Classification:

57207

Abstract:

Apparatus and method for making loop chenille type yarns and yarns produced thereby are disclosed. An elongated spindle having a tapered needle surface at one end thereof is provided. The spindle has a passage therein in communication with the needle surface for feeding a core thread to the needle surface. Effect thread is overfed to the needle location where a nose piece member cooperating with the needle aids in wrapping the effect thread about the needle to form loops. The binder yarn is fed to the needle and twisted about the core and effect threads. In a preferred embodiment, means are provided for reciprocating the nose piece relative to the needle between effect thread loop forming and effect thread non-loop forming dispositions. In this manner, "thick" and "thin" novelty yarns are provided in which the thick sections of the yarn comprise looped effect threads whereas the loops are not provided in the thin yarn sections. Means may also be provided for twisting the effect thread about the binder and core threads.

Appl. No.:

5/633594

Inventors:

William Kirk Wyatt - West Chester PA

Assignee:

Textured Yarn Co., Inc. - Kennett Square PA

International Classification:

D02G 112
D02G 116

US Classification:

28221

Abstract:

Textile strand stabilization by filament interlacing is provided by means of jet apparatus having a longitudinal strand-receiving bore intercepted by at least one fluid-receiving bore substantially perpendicular thereto and to its minor transverse axis. Fluid injected into the fluid-receiving bore establishes within the longitudinal bore a vortex-like flow configuration substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and to the minor transverse axis of the longitudinal bore. The apparatus preferably has a plurality of fluid-receiving bores offset along the longitudinal axis by distances up to the width of a fluid receiving bore.
