Definitions

  • This invention relates to the art of carding textile fibers, and it is an object of this invention to provide an improved method and apparatus for producing a card web wherein most of the fibers are arranged in a more parallel condition in the machine direction than has been attainable heretofore to my knowledge.
  • the parallelization of fibers has been largely effected subsequent to condensing the web into a ropelike structure or sliver on a carding machine, with very little parallelizing and straightening of fibers being effected during the carding operation, and wherein the sliver was processed by' combing, multiple gilling or other multiple processes of drafting with fiber control.
  • the parallelization of the fibers of a card web is highly desirable because there are-instances in which uncondensed card webs are use'dfor various purposes, such as in making non-woven fabrics or for forming the same into rovings on a tape condenser.
  • the method and apparatus of this invention not'only subjects the web to a longitudinal draftingand parallelizing action, but applies a further cooperating parallelizing action to the web being drafted at an area a lesser distance from the area at which the draftinducing pulling force is applied to the web than the average staple length of the fibers being drafted so as to more highly parallelize the fibers throughout the web.
  • FIGURE 2 is an enlarged view of the web detaching and par-allelizing elements defined 'within the broken-line area 2 of FIGURE 1;
  • FIGURE 3 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the garnett wire clothing within the area 3 of FIGURE 2 and showing a portion of the associated web detaching and combing roll;
  • rotary brush 27 is shown positioned between the arcs of cylinders 11, 12 below the fiber transfer region or juncture thereof. Since the surface speed of brush 27 is considerably faster than that of cylinder 12, brush 27 lays down the surface fibers on the doffer to improve the effec tiveness of the controlled drafting system heretofore described in straightening and parallelizing the fibers. It is contemplated that dofier cylinder 12 may rotate in the same direction as main cylinder 11 and in the opposite direction from that of detaching roll 13 with the teeth 12a pointing toward their direction of rotation, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
