Claims priority, application Japan Oct. 21, 1955 1 Clainn. (Cl. 242,--18) This invention relates to methods for winding yarns.
In this specification and the appended claims, yarn isintended to mean, yarn, thread, rope and string and all other thread-like materials of polymerized compounds such as rayon, semi-synthetic fiber and synthetic fiber, synthetic resin, glass fiber and the like, and pack.- age is intended to mean a body of yarn wou-nd by drum. winding, pot winding, ring winding, spool winding, or other winding methods, including the use of bobbins and cakes, irrespective of the method of winding or the shape of the body of yarn. This invention may be applied generally to:
(1) Drum winding: a type of winding in which. a package is rotated by a driving drum contacting the circumference of the package; I
(,2) Pot winding: 21 type of. winding in which a cake of yarn is formed by the centrifugal force of the yarn itself in a pot rotating at a high speed;
(3); Spool winding: a type of winding in which a spindle having wound yarn thereon ispositively driven and the rotation of the spindie is controlled. by, the. tension of the yarn;

godet or a set. of two godets is provided for eaehextruding' 1.
device, and one or two winding. up units. are used. :for
winding the yarn; With one winding unit, when the of coarse denier is. wound up at a high speed, inasmuch V as the portion of yarnwound on the godet in the. operation becomes waste. This loss will be increased to maximum in the winding of undrawn yarn where a. stretching process. is absolutely necessary as in thecase of synthetic. fiber, for example, when undrawn yarn is spun and Wound in the production of staple fiber of synthetic fiher, or whenundraw-n yarn is spun and taken up in the production of yarn of coarse denier for tyre cord.
When two winding up" units are provided for one extruding device, yarn is to beswound alternatively on either of the two winding centers (B) (B') which are mounted in alignment in positions including a relatively large anglev between them. from one godet roller as shown (4) Ring winding: a type of wvinding in which yarn is. wound on a bobbin. mounted on a spindle while twist is: given to the yarn by a ring ianda traveller or a cap; this. application isalso applicable to other types of. winding as well.
In: known. winding methods, in which the material'is extruded by an extrudingdevice and the speed of taking up is controlled by a. godet rotating at a constant speed below the extruding device by utilizing the circumferential speed ofsaid godet and the winding operation effected to form a desired package, there have been fou r types of operations as follows:
(1) A type in which yarn is wound up on the inside surface of a pot revolving at a high speed to form a cake by the centrifugal force of the yarn itself, the yarn being.-
introduced into the pot through a funnel making a trav- (3) A type in which a package is formed on a bobbin rotated-by a spindle positively driven, the yarn being so arranged as to make a longitudinal traverse motion in relation to thepackage, and the winding up speed being maintainedconstant "by maintaining the tension of the yarn constant thereby controlling the rotation of the i (4) A type in which a package is formed on a bobbin mounted on a spindle revolving at a constant speed while twist is given to the yarn by a ring and a traveller or a. cap.
in Fig. 4, and hence the swinging of the yarn to the right or left from the vertical line passing through the center of the godet roller (G) will become great. and change the tension or increase the diilerence of the. degree of stretching of the yarn thereby causing various .disadvantages in the quality'of the yarn such as irregularities in r the shape of the Wound up package, the denier andelonga-tion oi the yarn, the increase of brakingof yarn and the like. Furthen'the cost of the plantwill be increased inasmuch as two winding up devices in alignment'provid'ed for each extruding device will-necessarily increase. not onlythecostpflapparatusitselfbut alsonthe floor space required by. increasing the distance'hetweenthe spindles. 5 1 Accordingto the invention,fthe winding up apparatus c'omprisesa plurality of extruding devices, a set of godet.
rollers of the same number as the extruding devices, continuonsllwinding up units of the sa'me number-and associated-{withthe godet roller respectively, art-extra godetroller in addition to the rouper godet rollers mentioned above and an extra'winding up devicexin :reserve; and the method of continuous winding up of this invention is characterized in that when the package has become full, the Winding up operation'is'notisuspended but is shifted to an adjoining winding up device to continuethe operation. According to. this invention,
the loss of time in operation due to suspension as. well as'tlie'loss due to waste will be eliminated completely andthus it'is possible to attain efliciency and yield; There will be neither the beginning end of yarn of extra coarse denier as produced in the conventional method in winding up of undrawn yainof synthetic fiber requiring stretching' vprocess, nor the beginning "end of fine denier of semi-drawn yarn as. produced in the conventional method insome cases. When theinvention is "applied to pot winding ring winding or'cap'winding,
the yarn obtainedwill have a uniform 'twist from the" I beginning to the end of the yarn 'and no irregularity of theftwist will be found 'at any portionofthe yarn.
. When-this invention is applied, the package is tornied vertically below the godet roller thereby minimizing the swinging motion of the yarn, and thus the undesirableeifect on the quality of the yarn as caused when a twin" taking up apparatus is employed will be -completely 12,946,526 Patented July 26,
.. 3 eliminated. As a result, the formation of excellent packages may be achieved and the ballooning tension in the subsequent drawing process will become very uniform. This brings about a great advantage in the drawing process of synthetic fiber required by the fact that it prevents yarn breakage and allows an increase of the drawing speed in the drawing process. This invention also makes it possible to economize not only in the cost of the construction of the apparatus but also in the plant since it requires less floor area. Advantages to be obtained by this invention are too numerous to enumerate but other advantages will become apparent as the explanation of the embodiments of this invention proceeds with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 2 but showing the yarn being wound by pot winding to form a cake; and

Fig. 1 illustrates a system which has one extra godet roller 3 and an extra bobbin 5 at the end of a continuous spinning machine. Yarn (a) passes over rollers 13,
8 and through a guide 2 to a bobbin 1 to ,be wound i thereon. When the bobbin 1 is fully wound, the yarn to be wound has to beshifted fromthe bobbin 1- to the bobbin 5 at the right end. For this shift, the portion of yarn between the roller 8 and the guide 2 is taken and passed over the roller 3 and through the guide 15 associated with the bobbin 5 while the winding operation on the bobbin 1 is continued. In this instance, the yarn (a) is passed over rollers 13, 8, 3 and guides 15, 2 to the bobbin 1,to be wound thereon (Fig. 2). Next, the portion of the yarn between guides 15 and 2 is passed through a traverse'guide 4 as shown in Fig. 2 and around the bobbin 5. The yarn passes rollers 13, 8, 3, guides 15, 4, the bobbin 5, and the guide 2' to reach the bobbin 1 to be wound continuously on said bobbin. Since the bobbin 5 is rotated by a drum 17 at a circumferential speed equal to the winding up speed of the bobbin 1, the yarn does not receive any tension between the two bobbins, and, under this condition, the winding up operation on the bobbin 1 is continued. Then, at an appropriate moment, the yarn is cut at a point (C) between the bobbin 5 and the guide 2. The one end of the cut yarn may be wound on the bobbin 5 while the other end is wound on the bobbin 1. The winding up operation of the yarn thereafter may be carried out through rollers 13, 8, 3, guides 15 and 4 on the bobbin 5 and thus the operation is completely shifted from the bobbin 1 to the bobbin 5. Since the shifting of the winding up operation is carried out in the above operation while the winding operation is being continued, there will be no suspension of the winding up operation at all. In this operation, the yarn is passed around the bobbin 5, but when the yarn (a) is cut, the
yarn may be wound on the driving drum. In order to prevent this winding on the driving drum and to secure the winding on the bobbin 5, the yarn is passed around the bobbin 5 to form at least one loop on the bobbin 5 before cutting. Thus, the winding of the yarn on the drum may be prevented and the taking up on the bobbin 5 may be perfectly secured. After this operation, the full bobbin 1 is replaced by a new empty bobbin and the yarn (a') being wound on the bobbin 7' passing over rollers 13, 8' and through a guide 2' may be shifted to be wound on said new bobbin in the place of the full bobbin 7, the yarn (a) being passed over rollers 13', 8', 8, and the guide 2 to reach said new bobbin in a similar manner. This operation may be repeated until the winding up operation on the left end bobbin 7 is shifted to the bobbin 1' next to the left end. The leftmost bobbin 7 is replaced with an empty bobbin and, when other bobbins on the right are full, the shifting of the winding up operation from right to left may be carried out. Fig. 3 illustrates such an operation from the bobbin 1' to the bobbin 7. Yarn (a) passes over rollers 16, 11 and 8' associated with the bobbin 1' and is wound on the bobbin 1. For shifting the yarn (a) from the bobbin 1 to the bobbin 7, the yarn (a) is removed from the roller 8 and is passed through the guide It) and around the bobbin 7 before reaching the guide 10' associated with the bobbin 1 and the portion of the yarn at 12 is passed around the bobbin 7 to form at least one loop. Then the yarn (a) may be cut at a point between the bobbin 7 and the guide 10 associated with the bobbin 1. By this operation, the winding up operation of the strand going to the bobbin 1 may be shifted to the empty bobbin 7. The full bobbin 1' now may be replaced with a new empty bobbin. Then to this empty bobbin, the winding up operation may be shifted from the full bobbin 1" on the right in a similar way. In this way, the shifting of the winding up operation may be repeated with no suspension of the operation and all the full bobbins may be replaced with new empty bobbins.
The shifting operation "as mentioned above may be carried out theoretically between a spool at any position to an empty spool at any other position. However, when the two spools are not adjacent ones, the thread has to be stretched across the bank of machines for a long distance and such a stretching tends to affect the denier of the thread. Furthermore, if the thread is glass fiber, which must be drawn at a constant rate, such an operation is hardly possible. Further, the lacing of the thread from 5 to 7 upon cutting of the thread would leave a long loose end which would be apt to entangle with other running threads. Accordingly, it is to be understood that this invention is applied to shifting between adjoining spools.
In the example of Fig. l, the winding on the spool (at the uttermost right) is to be started first and said spool is to be taken off last while the winding on the spool 1' at the left is to be started last and said spool 1 is to be taken off first and, therefore, the size of the package of the spool 1 must be smaller than that of the spool 5. However, the time required for the completion of winding on a spool is relatively long, for example, about one hour, while the time required for the shifting of the winding operation according to the present invention is relatively short. For example, when the number of the spools is 10, the time from starting the winding on the spool 5 to' the taking off said spool from the winder is in the order of a few minutes.
product, for example, a material which is to be cut into staple fibers in the subsequent processing, or partly drawn material which is further to be drawn for'the preparation of final product, it is a matter of no importance whether the packages are of uniform size or not, and therefore the present invention can be conducted most advantageously in winding of an intermediate product.
In the above, the description is of the case where a single yarn is extruded from each extruding device. But it is to be understood that the invention is also applicable to the case Where a plurality of yarns are extruded from one extruding device as long as an independent winding up device is provided for each of the yarns extended. However, in this case, it will be necessary to wind up the yarn on each individual bobbin separately, and when a loop or more loops are to be wound around the bobbin, the yarn has to be cut after all the yarns have been wound to have one or more loops around the bobbins and they have passed the traverse guides.
While the explanations have been made with regard to drum winding in the above, the method of this invention can be applied to spool winding and pot winding or any other type of winding. As to spool winding, there will be no necessity of mentioning anything further than that the diflerence from the case of drumwinding exists simply in the winding up device to be used.
When the yarn is wound up by pot winding the method is also applied in a similar way, but the operation for shifting the winding up operation can be carried out more easily. Fig. 5 illustrates the application of the invention to pot winding. In Fig. 5, When it is desired to shift the operation from the pot 1" to the pot 5', the yarn is first passed to take the passage by elements 13, 8, 3, 2 and 1. In this condition, the winding up operation is continued with respect to the pot 1'. Then the yarn between the guides 3 and 2 is moved to take the position as shown by full line in the drawing by a fork or the line 15 in a hand of the operator; then air is passed to the funnel 4. The air over the funnel 4 is drawn into the funnel producing a rapid air stream into the funnel. When the yarn is cut at a point near the point 15, one end of the yarn will be drawn into the pot 5' by the air stream while the other end is Wound up in the pot 1". Thus the shifting operation from left to right may be completed.
When the winding is carried out by cap winding the method of this invention can be also carried out in a similar way. The device for shifting the operation while the winding up operation is continued is a little difierent on this occasion but the principle is entirely same. Fig. 6 illustrates the application of this invention to cap winding. As shown in the drawing, a waste spool 14 fixed on a spindle is provided below a bobbin. The waste spool 14 is arranged to have same circumferential speed as the circumferential speed of the godet 3. In the beginning, the yarn is passing through a passage of rollers 13, 8 and the guide 2 to be wound on the spindle 1". To shift the winding operation from the spindle 1 to the spindle 5" on the right, the yarn is first passed to take the passage over rollers '13, 8, 3 and the guide 15 associated with the spindle 5" before passing the guide 2 associated with the spindle 1" to reach said spindle 1'. Next the portion of the yarn between the guides 15 and 2 is passed through the guiding member 11 fixed on the machine frame and associated with the spindle 5" and around the waste spool 14 and again through the guides 11' and 15" and then to the guide 2 associated with the spindle 1". Then the yarn may be cut at a point as illustrated by 9 in Fig. 6. The cut end will now be wound on the waste spool 14, but when the yarn is removed from the guide l, the yarn will receive thereafter the action of the cap 4' and will be wound on the spindle 5" according to ordinary cap winding procedure, and thus the shift of winding operation from the spindle 1" to the spindle 5" is completed. Such a guiding member is, of course, to be provided for each waste spool. In Fig. 6, the waste spool and the guiding member in the adjacent position are indicated by 1", 14' and 11' respectively, but the machine frame is omitted. Other operations are entirely similar to those as described before relating to other types of winding. When the winding up operation is carried out by ring winding, the principle is same as the above, the only difference being that one of the two reciprocating portions of the yarn between 15 and 11 is passed inside of a traveller while the other is passed outside of the traveller in ring winding. With regard to the waste spool and others, there is no difference at all between the two. In the above two cases, the portion wound on the waste spool will become loss and yield cannot be obtained, but still higher yield may be obtained in comparison with conventional methods.
As the result of the operation as described above according to this invention, the operation may be simplified. In contrast to the twin winding device which has two bobbins for each yarn causing various degradation effects on the quality of the yarn and an increase of the cost of the equipment and the required floor area,the method of this invention eliminates all these disadvantages andpromotes efficiency in operation. The loss of waste yarn may be entirely eliminated or made minimum, the loss being limited to the beginning end of the yarnin spinning, if any. This method of winding up will thus bring about great advantage in continuous winding up operation of yarns of synthetic fibers and other fibers.
