ABSTRACT:
Fibers enter a textile mill at bale breaking equipment where fibers are distributed onto an open conveyor, and possibly blended, for transmittal to processing machinery such as opening and cleaning equipment, picker equipment for forming a lap, carding equipment, and drawing, roving and spinning equipment. The fibers are carried on the open conveyor past a spray station including at least one nozzle for spraying a finely diffused liquid onto the surface of the fiber material carried on the conveyor. The liquid is an aqueous solution which consists of about 75% water and about 121/2% of animal or vegetable fats as an active compound which is converted ionic salt by reaction of the organic acids contained in the animal and vegetable fats with an amine and subsequently with an alkyl sulfate. After passing the spray station, the fiber material may be transmitted through pneumatic conveyor systems to the additional processing equipment which ultimately converts the fibers into yarn or thread. An automatic control system for the spray station is energized by activation of either the bale breaking machinery or the open conveyor, and provides a delay control allowing the fibers on the open conveyor to move from the opening machinery station to the spray station.
