DEFINITION

Classification: 28/247

(under subclass 219) Method or apparatus involving the production of interlaced or intertwined adjacent thread portions or coils, crimps, crinkles or like distentions in thread or portions thereof.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

220+, for combined diverse thread finishing operations, including texturing.

286, for texturing of thread while in package form.

8, Bleaching and Dyeing; Fluid Treatment and Chemical Modification of Textiles and Fibers,

114.5, for fluid or chemical treatment of yarns and fabrics having yarns or areas of different physical or chemical characteristics, to produce crepe effects thereon and subclass 117 for treating cellulose fibrous materials or fabrics with agents to impart the chemical properties of wool thereto or with acid or alkaline gelatinizing or shrinking agents without tension, so as to cause the same to curl up and take on the physical appearance of wool. 19, Textiles: Fiber Preparation,

.46+, for staplizing of continuous filamentary material combined with prior treatment, inclusive of crimping or curling; subclasses .56+ for staplizing of continuous filamentary material combined with other operations,

inclusive of crimping or curling; and subclass 66.1 for crimping or curling of fibers in mass or sheet form.

57, Textiles: Spinning, Twisting, and Twining,

29, for apparatus for twisting hair, grass and the like to form yarn or cordage therefrom including means to insert additional hard twist to cause the strand to curl or coil about its longitudinal axis; subclasses 261+ for devices for performing spinning, twisting or twining operations combined with other operations, inclusive of texturing, and not elsewhere classified; subclasses 332+ for false twist devices for texturing strands; and subclass 362 for processes for making textured strand structures either wholly or in part from synthetic filaments or fibers by a spinning, twisting or twining operation.

65, Glass Manufacturing,

437, 438, and 506 for glass filament or fiber making combined with means having functions other than filament or fiber forming which serve to perfect the filament or fiber for its intended purpose, e.g., crimping or curling.

72, Metal Deforming, appropriate subclass for method or apparatus for deforming metal.

101, Printing,

3.1+, for apparatus for producing characters or designs on surfaces by dies adapted to deform or remove portions of the material.

132, Toilet,

210+, and 223 for crimping or curling the hair or straightening kinky hair. 140, Wireworking,

105+, for forming crimps or kinks in wire or wire fabrics.

156, Adhesive Bonding and Miscellaneous Chemical Manufacture,

183, for methods of bonding flexible filamentary material while in indefinite or running length with creping, wrinkling, or crinkling and subclasses 459+ for surface bonding means for an indefinite or running length flexible web with bending, folding, winding and wrapping means.

162, Paper Making and Fiber Liberation,

111+, for methods of producing a nonuniform, irregular or con-figured web or sheet, and subclasses 280+ for apparatus for producing or treating a creped or crinkled water or liquid laid fibrous web.

223, Apparel Apparatus,

28+, for apparatus for plaiting, fluting and shirring fabrics in the manufacture of garments, ornaments therefor, and similar material.

264, Plastic and Nonmetallic Article Shaping or Treating: Processes,

168, for the combination of forming and crimping or crinkling of strands of filaments, and subclasses 280+ for reshaping running or indefinite length work.

425, Plastic Article or Earthenware Shaping or Treating: Apparatus, appropriate subclass and particularly 66, for combined continuous filament forming or film casting means with stretching means comprising product advancing means, inclusive of crimping or curling means.
