Abstract

PURPOSE: To arrange cans between spinning units, and to house a large number of slivers by setting a horizontal cross-sectional shape of the cans for holding textile slivers in a rectangular shape having the long side remarkably longer than the short side. CONSTITUTION: Cans 10 have an almost rectangular chamber 11 for holding slivers. The cans 10 have fixed bottom wall 14 and wall 15. The bottom wall 14 is connected to the wall 15 by a rectangular connecting member 16. This connecting member 16 also has the action of playing a role to protect the cans 10. A rectangular reinforcing material 17 and a rectangular protective material 18 are installed on the upper end of the wall 15. A movable plate 19 is arranged in the chamber 11, and is connected to a spring 20 and a pantograph type balancing unit 21 so as to be raised/lowered by keeping a complete horizontal state. An engaging member 23 is used for setting a position by moving the cans 10 on a spinning machine by engaging with a device for supplying slivers to the cans 10.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The invention relates to a can for textile sliver.

More particularly, the invention relates to a can for holding textile sliver, the can being arranged approximately vertically and suitable for feeding sliver to a spinning unit of a spinning apparatus;
Furthermore, the present invention relates to a can that is advantageous for application to open-end spinning equipment.

The can of the invention is also suitable for cooperation with automatic devices for feeding sliver into the can in position relative to the corresponding spinning unit.

Many cans for holding textile slivers are known and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes.

Generally, the can for holding the sliver fed from the gill and feeding this sliver to the open-end spinning device has a circular cross section, and its diameter depends on the spacing between the spinning units of the open-end spinning device. Changes will be made as appropriate.

These cans are chosen to have the largest possible diameter to hold a large amount of sliver and are usually
A diameter larger than the spacing between the spinning units is selected.

For this reason, it is necessary to arrange some of the cans below the spinning machine, which causes difficulty for the operator when moving the cans.

In such an arrangement, it is difficult to feed the can with sliver by cooperating with automatic equipment.

Therefore, the applicant designed and implemented a can that can be applied to spinning equipment and overcomes the above-mentioned drawbacks.

The can of this invention has a horizontal cross-sectional shape of approximately a rectangle,
Moreover, the long sides of this rectangle are set to be significantly longer than the short sides.

By adopting such a shape, it is possible to arrange the spinning unit between the spinning units, and moreover, it is possible to accommodate a large number of slivers.

Moreover, when such cans are used, the cans can be arranged in a line, so that the cans can cooperate with automatic devices.

For comparison, in the case of conventional cans, in an open-end spinning machine with a spacing of 230 m between spinning units, cans with a diameter of 500 m and a height of 95 Otrva are arranged in two rows. In addition, this can is approximately 0
．． It has a capacity of 15m3.

In the can of this invention, the long side of the cross section is 800 mm,
With a short side of 220 m and a height of 950 m, it has the same storage capacity as the above-mentioned can. The structure of such a can with a rectangular cross section is similar to a conventional can.

For example, the can of the invention is provided with a movable plate connected to a spring and a pantograph unit. Further, this can is provided with reinforcing materials and protective materials at its edges, and is also provided with wheels and sliding members for moving on the floor.

Further, in the can of the present invention, the engaging member is attached to the wall surface corresponding to the short side of the cross section. This engagement member is arranged to engage a member mounted on an automatic device for placing and moving the cans into positions corresponding to the spinning units.

As these engaging members, magnetic type (adsorption type) or mechanical engagement type ones are used as appropriate.

The dance of the invention has a part at its top for holding the ends of the sliver. This part is located in such a position that it can easily cooperate with the automatic device that inserts the sliver into the spinning unit.

Furthermore, a portion may be provided at the top of the can that can engage with a guide provided on the open-end spinning device. This way, you can lift the can off the floor.

EXAMPLE In FIG. 1.2.3, a can 10 has an approximately rectangular chamber 11 for holding a sliver. The chamber 11 is surrounded by a pair of opposing first sides 12 and a pair of opposing second sides 13.

Note that the side surface 12 is set considerably longer than the side surface 13.

The can 10 has a fixed bottom wall 14 and walls 15. The bottom wall 14 is connected to the wall 15 by a rectangular connecting member 16. Note that this connecting member 16 also has the function of protecting the can 10.

A rectangular reinforcing member 17 and a rectangular protection forest 18 are attached to the upper end of the wall 15. The materials of construction of these parts are similar to those of the parts used in cylindrical cans.

A movable plate 19 is arranged within the chamber 11 . This play 1-19 is connected to a spring 20 and a pantograph type balancing unit 21, and is designed to be able to rise and fall while maintaining a completely horizontal state.

A device for moving the can 10 is attached to the bottom wall 14. As is clear from the figure, a wheel 22 is used in this device.

An engaging member 23 (preferably a magnetic type) is attached to the front wall 15 of the can 10. This engaging member 23 is used to engage a device or the like for supplying sliver to the can 10 and to move and set the position of the can 10 on the spinning device.

Figure 4.5 shows another embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, a sliding member 24 is used instead of the wheel 22 as a device for moving the can 10. This slide member 24 is attached to the connecting member 16 (=l
I'm being kicked. The engagement member 123 is a play 1-25 provided on the wall 15, and a hole 26 is formed in the center thereof. The can 10 and the can operating unit are engaged with each other by inserting and rotating an alignment member provided on the can operating unit 1 into the hole 26.

6 and 7 show still another embodiment of the invention. First, in FIG. 6, the engaging member 223 is provided with a tubular member 27, and this tubular member 27 is configured to engage with a laterally movable engaging pawl 28 provided on the can operating unit 29. It is designed to.

In FIG. 7, the engagement member 323 is provided with a pocket 30 into which an insertion piece 31 operated by a predetermined lever system is designed to be engaged.

FIG. 8 shows yet another embodiment of the invention.

The protective material 118 protrudes from the wall 15 of the can 10. Therefore, the can 10 can be moved by engaging the lower surface 33 of the protected forest 118 with a fixed guide arranged in accordance with the spinning unit of the open-end spinning device. , wheel 2 on cans 10
2 and slide member 24 are not provided, and the can 10
The movement of the dancer 10 is always carried out with the dancer 10 held up.

During the spinning process, the can 10 is held in a predetermined position.
