Definitions

  • This invention relates to a roving joining method and device, applicable to spinning machines.
  • D1 DE-A-3114538
  • D2 DE-A-3612229
  • the device disclosed in D1 has a structure that must be opened to introduce the new and the old rovings and substantially comprises a first and a second part that must be displaced in order to put the new and the old roving in contact and to join them.
  • D2 provides a splicing chamber having their axes displaced from each other. The reliability and the cost of said devices are not such as to allow them to be advantageously used on a wide scale, mainly for the following reasons:
  • the roving joining operation is still preferably carried out by an operator by halting the spinning unit of the machine and manually inserting the two rovings, the old and the new, simultaneously into the drafting unit and checking that the aforesaid conditions are verified.
  • the joint obtained is substantially a connection between the rovings such that the operating roving is able to drag the new roving into operation, while simultaneously allowing the subsequent drafting of the rovings even if joined.
  • the connection made has the merit of still allowing relative sliding between the roving fibres even at the point of joining, and which must necessarily occur to be able to effect the subsequent drafting of the roving without defects at the joint.
  • the joint is only semi-effective because, even if the new roving is sufficiently wound on the old roving to be dragged into operation, to prevent further yarn defects the tail end of the old roving must also be joined.
  • tail end is formed as a result of the emptying of the bobbin on which said old roving is wound (a very rare case) or by breaking said roving is indifferent.
  • the operation of the second nozzle within the tubular guide element of open cross-section generates a second stream which also winds the tail end of the old roving as helical turns onto the new roving, which is substantially taut as it is in operation.
  • the device for joining the tail end of the old roving onto the new roving can also be used separately from the first device if it is required only to join the roving tail end, for example because the joint between the rovings has already been previously made manually or by a device. In either case the device for joining the tail end can operate either in collaboration with a gripper device or not.
  • the gripper device is synchronized with the operation of the two nozzles 4 and 5 such that the tail end of the old roving has a length suitable for winding by the second nozzle 5.
  • the tail end joining device is particularly versatile.
  • the first device for joining the initial end of the new roving and the second device for joining the tail end of the old roving can use one and the same tubular guide element.
  • the first and second nozzle are positioned at the two ends of said guide element respectively and must be operated selectively and sequentially to prevent the jet from one interfering negatively with that from the other.
  • the tubular guide element has an open cross-section mainly to allow the roving or rovings to be joined to be rapidly and easily inserted through the relative slit. Hence it is not to be excluded that a closed guide element without the said slit can equally operate satisfactorily.
  • the invention is described by way of non-limiting example in terms of an embodiment which has been improved such as to comprise a single guide serving both the the joining devices. In this respect it is assumed that such an embodiment is more suitable for current requirements.
  • Figure 1 shows the device mounted on a unit of the spinning machine.
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view of the device.
  • Figure 3 is a plan view of the device.
  • Figures 4A-4E are schematic illustrations showing the device during the various stages of operation.
  • the roving joining device 1 comprises a gripper device 2, a guide element 3, a first nozzle 4 and a second nozzle 5.
  • the device 1 is housed on each unit (or position) of the spinning machine between the creel 6 and the drafting unit 7, which are conventional. Consequently the spinning machine comprises a number of devices equal to the number of units.
  • the creel 6 is able to contain at least one depleting bobbin 8 and at least one full bobbin 9.
  • the gripper device 2 comprises a movable abutment 10 and a fixed abutment 16 separated by a gap 11 between which the roving to be broken can slide.
  • the guide element 3 is of tubular form with its axis 13 parallel to the axis of movement of the roving in operation.
  • the element 3 is of open cross-section because of the presence of a longitudinal slit 12 through which the roving or rovings can be inserted.
  • the cross-section of the element 3 is such that an air jet directed towards its interior is able to form a swirl essentially about and along the axis 13.
  • the guide 3 can have any of the following shapes: a portion of a circle, a portion of an ellipse, a portion of a circumferential involute, a portion of an Archimedes spiral, or similar and/or intermediate shapes.
  • the first nozzle 4 is connected to a compressed air generator (not shown) and is positioned at a first end of the tubular guide element 3 and orientated towards the interior of said guide element 3 so as to generate an air swirl extending along the entire extension of the element 3, and having a component in the direction of advancement of the roving in operation.
  • the second nozzle 5 is also connected to a compressed air generator, preferably that to which the first nozzle 4 is connected, and is positioned at a second end of the tubular guide element 3 and orientated towards the interior of said guide element 3 to generate an air swirl rotating about the axis 13 and extending along the entire extension of the element 3, but with a component directed in the opposite direction to the direction of advancement of the roving in operation.
  • This breakage of the old roving 14 determines the formation of the relative tail end 14A.
  • the device of the invention joins the rovings together by a method comprising the following steps:
  • the tail end of the old roving is also wound about the (new) roving in operation, which is taut along a rectilinear axis.
  • the winding is achieved by a further air swirl rotating about the rovings and having a component in the opposite direction to the direction of advancement of the rovings in operation so as to form further helical turns.
  • the tail end of the old roving can be formed either by programmed breakage of the roving or by natural depletion of the bobbin.
  • the first case is however preferred because it reduces to a minimum a region which is critical as it can easily become a source of imperfection in the yarn being produced.
