A continuous heat treating machine for synthetic fiber tow provides a method for maintaining pressure having excellent stability on maintaining the pressure inside of the pressure chamber while avoiding quality deterioration and while ensuring minimum leakage of steam for heating medium. The length and breadth dimensions of the exit pressure seal part are set to be narrower than those of the entrance pressure seal part. The method ensures minimum damage on heat treating fiber, gives minimum unit requirement of steam for heating medium, and offers a stable operation and uniform heat treatment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
A method for maintaining pressure in a continuous heat treating machine for synthetic fiber tow comprising continuously heat treating a crimped synthetic fiber tow by passing the tow through a pressure chamber having an entrance pressure seal part and an exit pressure seal part and being kept at or above atmospheric pressure and being filled with steam for heating medium while sandwiching the crimped synthetic fiber tow from upper and lower sides thereof by a pair of endless conveyor belts, wherein the length and breadth dimensions of the exit pressure seal part are narrower than those at the entrance pressure seal part.
2.
A method for maintaining pressure in a continuous heat treating machine for synthetic fiber tow of claim 1 wherein a pair of endless belts are located to travel along both side edge surfaces of the synthetic fiber tow at least at the exit pressure seal part of the pressure chamber, and wherein the endless belts are converging toward the center axis of the passage of the synthetic fiber tow.
3.
A method for maintaining pressure in a continuous heat treating machine for synthetic fiber tow of claim 1, wherein the clearance between the endless conveyor belts arranged at the upper and lower sides of the synthetic fiber tow is reduced at the exit pressure seal part of the pressure chamber.
4.
A method for maintaining pressure in a continuous heat treating machine for synthetic fiber tow of claim 2, wherein the clearance between the endless conveyor belts arranged at the upper and lower sides of the synthetic fiber tow is reduced at the exit pressure seal part of the pressure chamber.

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to a method for maintaining pressure in a continuous heat treating machine for synthetic fiber tow.
BACKGROUND ART As a known important process of synthetic fiber production, a synthetic fiber tow which was imparted with false crimps by a crimping machine is subjected to heat treatment in a heat treating machine being provided with a pressure chamber filled with steam or other heating medium
