improvement in apparatus for application of liquid materials moving in particular colours to textile materials

摘要

Apparatus for the application of liquids to moving material, such as patterned application of dyes to moving textile material, including a liquid applicator positioned above the material path of travel for continuously discharging liquid in a row of plural streams downwardly onto the material, means for selectively deflecting selected of the continuously flowing streams in accordance with a pattern control device, and collection means for receiving the deflected liquid to prevent its contact with the moving material, and wherein the collection means includes a collection chamber having an opening for receiving deflected liquid, and three collector plates positioned adjacent the lower portion of the liquid-receiving opening to prevent liquid from falling onto the surface of the moving material from the collection means in an unscheduled manner. The primary collector plate being made of very thin metal and being capable of having tension applied to the extremities.
