Definitions

  • the invention relates to a controllable weft feeder and clamping device in which a thread clamp is present several times, according to the features of the preamble of Claim 1.
  • the weft feeder and clamping device consists of a plurality of feed levers, each lever of which has a weft clamp at its free end, and each lever can be brought by suitable means into a reference plane defined for the feeding of the weft thread to a weft insertion member and in the reference plane from one Rest position is pivotally movable in at least one working position, which can be, for example, the weft feed position to the rapier of a rapier weaving machine.
  • the respective weft thread to be presented to the weft insertion element is clamped between a first and a second clamping part in the respective weft thread clamp of the respective feed lever.
  • the weft thread clamped in the thread clamp in question is not to be presented to the gripper at every weft insertion; this means that the feed lever with the clamped weft thread is moved up and down several times in different vertical positions relative to the reference plane in the aforementioned device. These movements can cause the weft to be pulled out of the clamp and consequently to interrupt the weaving process.
  • Another disadvantage of the known thread clamps is that the weft thread has to be pulled out of the thread clamp when the gripper takes it over. This process can damage the structure of the weft thread in such a way that the end of the thread is released and individual filaments remain in the thread clamp or that the weft thread breaks.
  • the clamping element of the thread clamp is an actuator connected to the respective weft feed lever.
  • the weft feeder and clamping device has a plurality of weft feeder levers that can be controlled in a reference plane, at the free end of which a respective actuator designed and controllable according to the invention is arranged, of which the first clamping element is the respective feeder lever of the device and that second clamping element is the actuator itself or a clamping element that is operatively connected to an actuator via, for example, a motion transmission element. If the actuator itself forms the second clamping element, then this is, for example, a piezoelectric element which communicates with a program, memory and control unit of the weaving machine in a signal-transmitting manner.
  • a piezoelectric actuator can be arranged in a stationary manner on the respective weft feed lever, the actuating movements of which act on the movably designed second clamping element by means of a movement transmission element; the piezoelectric actuator is not itself the second clamping element here.
  • the actuator interacting with the first clamping element of the thread clamp can a piezoelectric component, an electromagnetic component, a permanent magnetic component Component, a pneumatically or hydroelectrically controllable component or a Be an electric motor.
  • the Total angle of rotation range is less than 90 degrees.
  • FIGS 1 to 1c show a weft feed lever 4a with its individual parts of a weft feeder and clamping device 4 shown schematically in Figure 2.
  • the structure and function of such a device 4 is shown in DE-GM 297 16 310, the description of which is the subject of this Patent application is declared.
  • a thread clamp 1 is firmly connected to the end thereof by means known per se.
  • the thread clamp 1 consists of a rigid clamping element 1 a, which on the connection side to the feed lever 4 a has a free end encompassing the c-shaped profile section 1 a ′, which at the same time holds the wire-side end area of a second clamping element 1 b designed as a piezoelectric element 2 or with the free one End and the profile section 1a 'connects.
  • this end region can be cast or glued by a suitable means.
  • the other free end region of the piezoelectric element 2 carries a wear-resistant weft thread clamping body 5 which has a thread inlet slope 5a.
  • a thread inlet slope 1a ′′ also has the free end of the rigid clamping element 1a, which additionally has a stop 6 that limits the piezoelectric element 2 in its opening movement.
  • the piezoelectric thread clamp 1 is controlled via lines 13, 14 in a signal-transmitting manner by a program, storage and control unit 10 of the weaving machine shown in FIG.
  • the actuator 2 which is also a piezoelectric actuator or an actuator according to claims 2 to 6, is mounted near the adjusting shaft 4b of the weft feeder and clamping device 4 on the respective feed lever 4a.
  • a movement transmission element 3 is arranged between the actuator 2 and the movable clamping element 1b of the thread clamp 1 and transmits the actuating movements of the actuator 2, see also double arrow 3a, to the clamping element 1b in the sense of an opening or closing movement of the thread clamp 1.
  • Actuator 2 is controlled by program, memory and control unit 10 via signal line 10a, a contact strip 15 and a flexible cable 16. The pivoting movement of the weft thread feed lever 4a from the rest position 7 into the working position 8 shown in dashed lines takes place by means of the adjusting shaft 4b of the device 4.
  • the embodiment shown in Figure 3 corresponds in structure and operation of the Example shown in Figure 1 with the difference that the signal transmission from the Control unit 10 on the actuator 2 is not wired, but contactless e.g. inductive he follows.
  • FIG. 4 shows the swiveling or rotation angle range 12 of a weft thread feed lever 4a with thread clamp 1 of the device 4, which lies in a reference plane.
  • the structure and the mode of operation of the thread clamp 1 with the clamping element 1a, 1b can be seen from the description of FIGS. 3 and 4, so that here only the representation of the position 7 to be assumed by the thread clamp 1 on the one hand relative to the cutting plane 17a of a weft scissors 17 and on the other hand the representation of the thread clamping positions 8 and 9 will be discussed. It is important that the positions 7, 8 and 9 lie within the rotation angle range 12 lying in a reference plane, specifically for each feed lever 4a with thread clamp 1 of the device 4.
  • the position 7 of the thread clamp 1 is the rest position
  • the position 8 is the position in which the weft thread 11 is presented to a rapier of a rapier weaving machine, not shown, and is transferred by the controlled opening of the thread clamp
  • the position 9 is the one in a weft 11 held ready is still picked up and held in place by the weft thread 11 inserted into a shed and attached to the edge 18a of a fabric 18 by controlled opening and closing of the thread clamp 1 until the weft 11 picked up is held by the ready weft thread the weft scissors 17 is cut off.
  • the feed lever 4a in question is moved back into the rest position 7 with the thread clamp 1.
  • the weft thread 11 to be presented to the gripper is held by the relevant thread clamp 1 until, according to a control program stored in the unit 10, this weft thread is to be presented to the gripper.
  • FIG. 5 shows a further possibility for transmitting the opening and closing movement of the thread clamp 1 from the actuator 2 to the thread clamp 1.
  • the actuator 2 is, for example, an electromagnetic unit which is controlled by the control unit 10 in the sense of the aforementioned exemplary embodiments and which executes the opening and closing movement of the thread clamp 1 by means of the movement transmission element 3 which forms a lever mechanism.
