Abstract

A yarn heating apparatus which is adapted for use in a yarn false twisting machine. The heating apparatus includes an elongate heating surface, and a plurality of yarn guide members mounted in a longitudinally spaced-apart arrangement along the length of the heating surface, for guiding an advancing yarn therealong in a laterally zigzagged path of travel which is adjacent but spaced from the heating surface.
