(54) | SPECIAL YARN SPINNING APPARATUS IN SPINNING MACHINE |
(57) A special yarn spinning apparatus adapted for use in a spinning machine includes
a plurality of apron draft devices that are configured to switch fiber bundles to
be fed, respectively. The special yarn spinning apparatus further includes a joining
device and an anti-twist device. The joining device joins a training end of the fiber
bundle fed from at least one of the apron draft devices which has operated before
switching the feed and a leading end of the fiber bundle fed from another of the apron
draft device which has started after switching the feed. The anti-twist device holds
and delivers the fiber bundle at a position downstream of the joining device to prevent
propagation of twist from a twist device to the joined fiber bundles in the joining
device.
