| Abstract |
A device to interrupt the continuous flow of roving to a drafting zone during break of yarn, the said device comprising at least one lifting means f lifting the top roller of the drafting zone of a spinning machine. at least one lift control means and at least two rove braking means. Wherein the lifting means consists of at least one hinged lever means connected to the said top role through a linkage assembly; the said lift control means consisting of sensing and activating means connected to a hinged lever means, the other end of the hinged liver being lock ably connected to the lever means of the said lifting means, the said rove braking means consisting B of two plunger assemblies connected to two brake levers, the other end of the brake levers being connected to the said lever means of the lifting me such that when the yarn brakes. The sensing means activates the levers through the activating means t4 the said top roller and simultaneously compress the plunger assemblies onto the roving path to interrupt the continuous flow of roving. |
