Abstract

The invention concerns a method of threading in a thread (1) into a texturing nozzle (2) known as such, and an apparatus for implementing the method. The texturing nozzle is brought from a working position (A) into a threading-in position (B) for threading-in, in which position a treatment chamber (13) provided with slots (12) and located upstream from the outlet opening (14) of the texturing nozzle is subject to a vacuum for sucking in a thread brought to a position in front of the inlet opening (44) of the texturing nozzle. The apparatus for implementing the method comprises a duct (19, 32, 32a, 41, 41a), which can be tilted open, for taking up substantially sealingly against the surrounding atmosphere the treatment chamber (13) of the texturing nozzle (2) provided with slots (12), as well as for taking up a suction device (18, 40) sucking the thread (1) through the texturing nozzle (2).
