A loading tube has Japanese cotton placed within a polymer tube. The tube has a hollow, cylindrical form with a tip and an opposite tail. The Japanese cotton advances through the tube exiting at the tip and withdrawing from the tail. The tube has a sidewall with a thickness and an inner diameter suitable for containing Japanese cotton and then advancing it into an atomizer. The outer diameter of the tube cooperates with an aperture in the coil of the atomizer. The tip and the tail have a rim with a square cut. The tube has its size that relates its length to its inner diameter, and to its thickness within a range. The tube utilizes polypropylene for its construction. Alternative fibrous material may be substituted for Japanese cotton.

There is provided an apparatus for drawing a fibre, the apparatus comprising, a first outlet for dispensing a volume of a first polyionic polymer solution; and a second outlet for dispensing a volume of a second oppositely charged polyionic polymer solution; said second outlet disposed adjacent to the first outlet such that the polymer solutions dispensed therefrom are capable of contacting each other to form a fused droplet comprising a polyelectrolyte complex interface separating the first polyionic and second polyionic polymer solutions; wherein the fused droplet is arranged to move along a fibre drawing path under gravitational force in an opposing direction from the first and second outlets such that nascent fibre is drawn from the polyelectrolyte complex interface. There is also provided a method of drawing the fibre.

A drawing and spinning apparatus of mixed yarns for air spinning machines with multiple feeds comprises at least a first and a second introducer element, an air spinning device, a drawing device, interposed between the introducer elements and the air spinning device, an air spinning chamber, an introducer nozzle shaped to receive the webs from the drawing device into respective insertion channels and introduce the webs into the spinning chamber according to a longitudinal feeding direction. With respect to a cross-section plane perpendicular to the longitudinal feed direction, groove bottoms of each of the two insertion channels of the webs into the chamber are aligned along a segment which is offset by an eccentricity with respect to a geometric centre of the chamber itself, through which a symmetry axis of the spinning chamber passes, the eccentricity being less than 5% of a maximum diameter of the spinning chamber.

A yarn twisting method and device for a ring spinning machine is provided. The twisting method comprises the following steps: feeding three roving strands (1, 2, 3) into a back roller (8) of the ring spinning machine; after drafting, the three roving strands, three fiber strands (1, 2, 3) exiting from a nip point of a front roller (10), wherein a fiber strand (2) in the middle forms an angle with a plane formed by the other two fiber strands (1, 3), and thus the three fiber strands (1, 2, 3) form a multi-strand spinning triangle region having a three-dimensional spatial form; and in the multi-strand spinning triangle region, the three fiber strands (1, 2, 3) obtaining twist by means of a ring traveler of the ring spinning machine, and the twisted fiber strands (1 ,2, 3) are combined into a composite yarn (4) through a convergence point.

A multiple nozzle connection that is connectable to a central suction duct of a textile machine includes a connecting piece configured to connect to a compaction device of the textile machine or to a suction tube device that is in communication with the central suction duct. The connecting piece includes three connections, wherein at least one of the connections is closable by one of the connected compaction device or the connected suction tube device.
