Wrap spinning device and method.

摘要

Textile core material 12 passes from delivery rollers 8, 10 through a rotary spindle 16 and then via take-up rollers 24, 26 to a winding roller 32 to form a package 34. The spindle 16 carries a package 28 of wrapper yarn 27 which is withdrawn over-end and passes down the spindle 16 with the core material 12, wrapping around the latter to form wrap-spun yarn. Positive false twist is applied at the entrance to the spindle 16 by a false twist device 14 spaced from the delivery rollers 8, 10 by a distance A and from the take-up rollers 24, 26 by a distance B. A and B are so related that neither is less than one third of the total A + B and are preferably approximately equal to one another.
