METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENTANGLING YARNS

摘要

A fluid jet is directed onto a first yarn at least at sonic speed to entangle the first yarn, which is aligned substantially parallel to a main yarn, into the main yarn enabling that yarns having a high yarn count and/or wet yarns can be entangled.

1. A method of entangling a first yarn into a moving main yarn, comprising;
aligning the first yarn substantially parallel to the main yarn and subsequently directing a fluid jet onto the first yarn for separating filaments and/or groups of filaments in the first yarn from each other and to intermingle filaments and/or groups of filaments of the first yarn with filaments and/or groups of filaments of the main yarn to form mechanical friction points between filaments and/or groups of filaments from the first yarn and the main yarn, wherein the fluid jet is directed onto the first yarn at least at sonic speed.
