ABSTRACT:
An inverting tow plaiter adapted to position tow onto a receiving end of a main conveyor in a series of overlying laps oriented to permit trouble-free removal of tow from the main conveyor discharge end. The plaiter comprises a continuous, moving canvas belt positioned above the main conveyor constrained to follow the downwardly extending semi-circular path, and a stationary housing spaced from the belt to define with the belt a curved chute of narrowing cross-section. The chute has a gap width at the chute upper end which is greater than at the chute lower end. Structure for depositing tow onto the canvas belt at the chute upper end in a series of overlying laps which extend transversely across the belt is provided.
