ABSTRACT:
A twist producing device for a thread-shaped textile product moving in the longitudinal direction thereof includes a housing with a thread inlet side, a thread channel formed at the thread inlet side of the housing having a given open cross-sectional area permitting passage of a thread, an expansion chamber disposed in the housing downstream of the thread channel in the longitudinal direction having an open cross-sectional area being larger than the given area and defining an outer wall, an annular pre-expansion chamber with an open cross-sectional area formed in the housing surrounding the thread channel and defining an outer wall coextensive with the outer wall of the expansion chamber, means formed in the housing for supplying compressed air, and at least one air injection orifice with an open cross-sectional area leading from the compressed air supply means and discharging tangentially into the pre-expansion chamber, the compressed air supply means, the open cross-sectional area of the air injection orifice and the open cross-sectional area of the pre-expansion chamber being proportioned to each other causing air to impinge with supersonic velocity onto parts of the thread-shaped textile product passing in vicinity of the pre-expansion chamber.
