  Abstract

Yarn tension, predominately determined by the dynamic motion of yarn balloon, is a key factor for spinning speed and yarn qualities, which is attracting an increasing amount of concern in advance spinning field. A novel device called a special-shaped tube (SST) has been introduced in this work, to reduce yarn tension. The SST is installed between yarn guide and traveler to regulate the dynamic balloon, ensuring consecutive yarn spinning with high spindle speed. Theoretical modeling was developed to explain that the SST can lower the yarn tension and reduce the fluctuation of yarn tension by controlling the shape of yarn balloon. Experimental results have confirmed this theoretical analysis. Meanwhile, they also reveal that the SST can be deployed to produce yarns with higher strength than yarns produced with existing balloon control ring (BCR) device. Both yarn hairiness and irregularity are similar for these two types of yarns. This spinning device also helps to isolate yarns from the turbulent flow from both sides, avoiding any negative effect on yarn formation. All superiorities indicate that the SST has the potential to replace balloon separator and BCR in industrial spinning.
