ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for mechanically crimping and shrinking textile webs mainly comprises an elongated chamber through which the textile web is moved in a predetermined direction, at least two endless crimping grates arranged in said chamber and each including an endless link chain and a plurality of crimping plates projecting equally spaced from each other in a direction transverse to the chain from the latter and in which each endless chain is guided over a pair of guide rolls so that each chain has one run moving in the direction of movement of the web through the chamber and another run moving in the opposite direction. The apparatus includes further heating means having a heated smooth guide surface opposite said one run of each endless chain and said textile web is passed between the respective heated guide surface and the outer ends of the crimping plates on the one run. The chains on successive crimping plates are driven in opposite directions and preferably at speeds which can be steplessly adjusted.
