<p>Apparatus for texturing synthetic thermoplastic yarn is in the form of a self-contained machine unit comprising a long straight support spline with which a drive transmission shaft is co-extensive, the spline carrying at least one set of yarn feed rolls, a heater and a yarn texturing mechanism. The feed rolls are at one end of the spline and drivably connected to the transmission shaft, and at the other end of the spline a belt pulley also connected to the shaft can be belt coupled to a drive motor individual to the machine unit. Multiple machine units can be mounted in inclined spaced parallel disposition on a framework, as a horizontal row, to build a machine. The framework supports the motors for the machine units, and also optional setting apparatuses and winding assemblies associated with the machine units to form production units. Detachable spline extensions carry further feed rolls for co-operation with the first feed rolls for drawing yarn prior to texturing.</p> |
