In general, there is a so-called yarn defect monitoring device that detects and removes defects in running yarn, but this device converts the weight fluctuations of the yarn running in the measuring head into electrical signal fluctuations. The device separates a signal with a predetermined amplitude and wavelength from the signal, detects this as a yarn defect signal, drives the cutter, and removes the yarn defect portion.The circuit for detecting the yarn defect signal is inside this device. is the most important element.

The simplest electric circuit to achieve this purpose is a so-called low-pass filter (RC circuit), which has a resistor and a capacitor connected in series.
The frequency response can be controlled by changing the capacitance, but in textile factories where a large number of yarn defect monitoring devices are installed, it is possible to control the frequency response of all yarn defect monitoring devices individually. , or at the same time and by the same amount depending on the weight fluctuation of the yarn, a primitive method of using variable resistors for each resistance element and adjusting each to a set value is adopted. I couldn't go. For this reason, yarn defect monitoring devices have traditionally been used that use a thermistor whose resistance value changes with temperature changes as a resistance element, and centrally control the heating temperature of this thermistor by electrically controlling it. However, the resistance value of this thermistor changes depending on the input voltage, it is easily affected by temperature changes in the environment in which it is used, and furthermore, the variable range in which the resistance value can be used is extremely narrow. It had drawbacks.

Therefore, a device was invented that uses an electronic switch that can adjust the ON-OFF interval to thin out the signal from the measurement circuit and change the apparent resistance value. Although it has no effect, it is not possible to lengthen the ON-OFF interval of the electronic switch in relation to the yarn running speed, and the variable range is narrow, which limits the scope of application, that is, the types of defects to be monitored. It had

However, the present invention focuses on the fact that the mutual conductance gm, which is one of the vacuum tube constants, has a dimension that is the reciprocal of the resistance value, and if an electronic circuit that can vary this mutual conductance is used in the yarn defect detection circuit, the input voltage can be reduced. This was done based on the consideration that it would be possible to obtain a yarn defect monitoring device that is not affected by environmental temperature changes and has a wide frequency response variable range. The specific configuration will be explained.

A current represented by the product of voltage Vd and transconductance gm is output,
This current charges the capacitor 3b and outputs the terminal voltage as the output voltage Vo through the buffer amplifier 3c.The frequency response G of this circuit 3 is the ratio of this output voltage V0 to the input voltage Vi, that is, Vo/Vi. where the angular frequency of the input voltage Vi is W, the capacitance of the capacitor 3b is C, and the converter 3

As described above, according to the yarn defect monitoring device according to the present invention, the yarn defect detection circuit converts the voltage signal from the measurement circuit into a current signal, and changes the mutual conductance by the electric signal from the central control device. Because it uses a variable transconductance voltage-current converter, the detection accuracy of yarn defects changes depending on input voltage or environmental temperature changes, unlike conventional yarn defect detection circuits that use a thermistor. This eliminates the inconvenience of detecting yarn defects that do not need to be detected or overlooking yarn defects that should be detected, and it is possible to provide a yarn defect monitoring device with extremely few malfunctions. Since the frequency response is controlled by changing the mutual conductance, the frequency response can be varied over a very wide range, making it possible to provide a yarn defect monitoring device that can be used for all types of yarn defects.
