Radial Yarn Movement in Yarn Duct of Interlacer

摘要

In order to find the relations between the production performance of interlacer and its cross-sectional shapes of yarn duct,radial yarn movement in various yarn ducts of interlacer and its effect on performance of interlaced yarn were studied in this paper.Seven interlacers,which were different in the cross-sectional shape of yarn duct,were made.Yarn motion in yarn duct of interlace was observed with optical fibers and photo-sensors.Performance of the interlaced yarn was evaluated by the number and the strength of tangles.Experimental results disclose the relations between the yarn motions and the properties of the interlaced yarn.The interlacer with round yarn duct is capable of producing an interlaced yarn with bigger number of tangles,since it can make yarn transverse frequently the axis of air jet issuing from air jet nozzle.The interlacer with cornered shape of yarn duct makes yarn subjected to the action of compressed air for a longer time,which results in larger strength of tangles.
