Abstract

A method and a device for improving a yarn produced with genuine twist in the rotor of an open-end spinning apparatus directs the yarn through a yarn take-off nozzle in a given yarn travel direction. The yarn is subsequently diverted from the given yarn travel direction first to one side and then back to the opposite side over false-twist edges disposed obliquely relative to the given yarn travel direction including a last false-twist edge. Outer fiber ends of the traveling yarn are spread radially apart after passing the last false-twist edge. The yarn is subsequently passed through a pair of delivery rollers.
