ABSTRACT:
Vacuum spinning of yarn produces yarns having good properties, and which may have a wide variety of different effects and constructions. A core filament yarn may be fed into operative association with a nipped sliver or roving, and then fed to a perforated rotating hollow shaft operatively connected to the vacuum. The core filament yarn may be a full stretched textured yarn, which is placed under tension and while under tension is dragged over a sharp edge of nonconductive material, and after the tension is relieved develops crimp. This causes individual fibers to be repelled, and provides for intermixing of the nipped sliver or roving fibers and the core filament yarn fibers. Alternatively, the filament yarn may be acted upon by draft rollers before the entrance to, and after the exit from, the hollow rotating shaft, to apply a force that breaks up to about 20% of the fibers. The yarns produced utilizing the broken fibers has a spun-like appearance. As another alternative, filament yarn can be inserted with controlled overfeed directly into the inlet of the rotating shaft to produce a yarn having a loop or Boucle effect. As still another alternative, the sliver or roving is acted upon so that all of the fibers have short staple length and free ends, are transported in a linear direction A, and the loose ends are acted upon to provide a core formed of approximately 20-40% of the fibers, the core having real twist, and approximately 80-60% of the fibers are wrapped about the core to provide surface effects.
