Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for absorbing a portion of the moisture removed from material woven on a fluid-jet loom. A shed of warp yarns is formed in the loom and a fluid jet is used to feed weft yarns into the warp yarns for forming a length of woven material. An opening extends at least the width of the length of material, and the material is moved over the opening. Air is pulled through the opening for removing moisture from the length of material as it moves over the opening. The air has a temperature greater than that of the surrounding atmosphere. The improvement includes reducing the temperature of the moisture-laden air to at least the dew point of the surrounding atmosphere for reducing the moisture content of the air before the air enters said surrounding atmosphere.
