ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to: process and apparatus for feeding continuous filaments to a continuous multifilament structure utilizing tangentially converging fluid streams to forward the filaments; process and apparatus for detecting breakage of filaments utilizing a rotatable cylinder, or a gap in a three dimensional body, wherein breakage of the filament causes a measurable change in the pressure of fluid flowing to the cylinder or the gap; process and apparatus for the production of continuous multifilament structures wherein, upon breakage of a continuous filament, the breakage detector automatically activates a filament feeder to temporarily insert a substitute filament.
