Apparatus for the production of textile materials which are not knotted and are not woven

Abstract

Abstract An apparatus for the production of textiles which are neither knotted nor woven. According to the invention, the yarns which are to be formed into the textile cross each other and are joined together at their crossing points where they contact each other, either by welding of the yarns to each other or by adhering them to each other at their crossing points. The apparatus includes a pair of press rollers, the length of which corresponds to the width of the material which is produced, and a spindle, which extends at right angles to the press rollers upstream of the latter, carries a battery of spindles, on each of which a spool of yarn is mounted. A thread or yarn regulator is disposed between the press rollers and the battery of yarn spools, and this regulator has a number of holes corresponding to the desired spacing in the yarns in the material. A number of yarn-guiding eyelets are arranged parallel to the press rollers between the latter and the yarn regulator on an endless belt having a length corresponding to the width of the material and supported so as to carry out reciprocating movements, while between the yarn-guiding eyelets and the press rollers a yarn-coupling head extends parallel to the rollers and is mounted for movement toward the way from these rollers.
