Yarn traverse guide

Abstract

A yarn traverse guide in which a plurality of yarn guides having yarn introducing openings and yarn introducing passages formed continuously from the yarn introducing openings are disposed at intervals so that the positions of the yarn introducing openings are not overlapped with each other.

1 . A yarn traverse guide comprising
 (a) a first guide member forming a first yarn guide,   (b) a second guide member forming a second yarn guide, and   (c) a guide attaching member for fixing said first guide member and said second guide member,   wherein   (d) said first guide member has a first yarn introducing port formed in a peripheral segment thereof and a first yarn introducing passage extending from said first yarn introducing port to inward of said yarn introducing port,   (e) said second guide member has a second yarn introducing port formed in a peripheral segment thereof and a second yarn introducing passage extending from said second yarn introducing port to inward of said yarn introducing port, and   (f) said first yarn guide and said second yarn guide are fixed to said guide attaching member in facing to each other through a clearance between them in such a state that when said first yarn introducing port and said second yarn introducing port are projected on the same plane of projection, they do not overlap each other and in such a state that when said first yarn introducing passage and said second yarn introducing passage are projected on the same plane of projection, they overlap each other at least partially.   
   
   
       2 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 1 , wherein an angle formed between a first direction in which a center line of said first yarn introducing passage extends from said first yarn introducing port to outward of said first guide member and a second direction in which a center line of said second yarn introducing passage extends from said second yarn introducing port to outward of said second guide member is more than 0 degree to less than 180 degrees on said same plane of projection. 
   
   
       3 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 2 , wherein at least either the center line of said first yarn introducing passage or the center line of said second yarn introducing passage is straight. 
   
   
       4 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 2 , wherein at least one of said first yarn introducing passage and said second yarn introducing passage communicates, at its end, with a yarn introducing passage extension extending in a direction different from a direction of the center line of the at least one of the first yarn introducing passage and the second yarn introducing passage. 
   
   
       5 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 2 , wherein the peripheral segment including said yarn introducing port of the at least one of said first guide member and said second guide member is formed to be curved outward of the at least one of the first guide member and the second guide member. 
   
   
       6 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 2 , wherein each of said first guide member and said second guide member is a plate-like body. 
   
   
       7 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 2 , wherein either said first guide member or said second guide member is a plate-like body while the other of said first guide member or said second guide member comprises two bars parallel to each other. 
   
   
       8 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 7 , wherein each of said two bars is a rotatable roller. 
   
   
       9 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 8 , wherein the yarn introducing passage of said plate-like body communicates, at its end, with a yarn introducing passage extension extending in a direction different from the direction of the center line of said yarn introducing passage; and in the case where said yarn introducing passage extension and the yarn introducing passage formed between said rotatable rollers are projected on the same plane of projection, they agree with each other in direction. 
   
   
       10 . A yarn traverse guide comprising:
 guide members each having a yarn introducing port formed in a peripheral segment thereof and a yarn introducing passage extending from said yarn introducing port inwardly from said peripheral segment;   a guide attaching member fixing the guide members such that they face each other with a clearance between them;   wherein when said yarn introducing ports of said guide members are projected on a plane of projection, they do not overlap each other; and   wherein when said yarn introducing passages of said guide members are projected on the same plane of projection, they overlap each other at least partially.   
   
   
       11 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 10 , wherein an angle formed between a center line of each of said yarn introducing passages extending from each of said yarn introducing ports outwardly is more than 0 degree to less than 180 degrees. 
   
   
       12 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 11 , wherein a center line of at least one of said yarn introducing passages is substantially straight. 
   
   
       13 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 11 , wherein at least one of said yarn introducing passages communicates, at its end, with a yarn introducing passage extension extending in a direction different from a direction of the center line of the at least one of the yarn introducing passages. 
   
   
       14 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 11 , wherein the peripheral segment including said yarn introducing port of at least one of said guide members is formed to be curved outwardly of the at least one guide member. 
   
   
       15 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 11 , wherein each of said guide members is a plate-like body. 
   
   
       16 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 11 , wherein one of said guide members is a plate-like body while the other of said guide members comprises two bars parallel to each other. 
   
   
       17 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 16 , wherein each of said two bars is a rotatable roller. 
   
   
       18 . A yarn traverse guide, according to  claim 17 , wherein the yarn introducing passage of said plate-like body communicates, at its end, with a yarn introducing passage extension extending in a direction different from the direction of the center line of said yarn introducing passage; and in the case where said yarn introducing passage extension and the yarn introducing passage formed between said rotatable rollers are projected on the same plane of projection, they agree with each other in direction.
