ABSTRACT:
A textile stuffer box includes a housing having an entrance and an exit, and including cooperating chamber-forming surfaces defining an internal crimping chamber for receiving and accumulating a length of yarn. An adjustable sliding gate defines at least one of the chamber-forming surfaces adjacent the exit of the housing. A set screw releasably locks a position of the gate to selectively enlarge and narrow the exit of the housing, such that selective adjustment of the gate operates to control axial compression of yarn accumulating inside of the crimping chamber.
