Definitions

  • bobbins 1 produced by previously known winding frames of this kind the beginning end. of the thread usually projects from the winding and is frequently wound in, only in the region of the upper layers of thread. This necessitates additional work on the wound bobbins, that is to say removal of any exposed thread end by hand, and may nevertheless result in disturbance of the thread during'winding-oif, the consequence thereof being interrup tion of the operation of machines manufacturing textile products and using bobbins of this kind.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a winding frame in which the beginning part of the thread to bev brought on to the bobbin to be wound is neatly and dependably fixed by the first turns of the thread without therebeing any risk of this end extendinginto regions of the outer layers of the winding whereby disturbances during the winding-oif of the thread from a wound bobbin.
  • the invention may be carried out in many different In order not to disturb the winding operation or render complicated the means required to guide the thread, it is advantageous to dispose the device of the invention so thatit is slidable transversely to the bobbin tube, where-' by the same can be moved into the region of the tube only for a very short interval of time at the beginning of winding.
  • the device has means co-operating with the tube which may comprise a number of members rigid in themselves and adapted to close around the tube on the principle of radially directed movements or in the manner of tongs. Alternatively such means may comprise a flexible member which at the commencement of Winding is adapted'to embrace the tube by following its form.
  • Resilient guide means of this kind are advantageously formed by an endless band which is caused temporarily to embrace the tube for the greater part and to rotate therewith.
  • the devices may be constructed particularly simply by providing an endless band which by part of its length substantially engages around the tube in the form of a loop at the commencement of winding.
  • a band of this kind may consist entirely of longitudinally extensible preferably rubber-like material in order auto-j matically to furnish always by its own resilience the rehave a friction-increasing lining in order to be driven practically without slip by the rotating tube.
  • it is more advantageous to use a band for ex ample a metal foil, having a very smooth surface and possibly non-rotatable but in most cases a flexible band hav;
  • The-band 'or other part periodically surrounding the region of the beginning of the Winding of the bobbin may naturally be profiled to correspond to the shapefof the tube in order to obtain dependable guidance of the thread forrns.
  • theguide rollers facing the bob" end. s f' One preferred embodiment of the invention accordingly provides an endless band which substantially forms the guide and which passes over at least three guide members such as rollers, at least one of which is ad ust able. Preferably, however, .in such arrangements two guide members such as rollers.
  • the guide device may be mounted on lever members which are movable relative to one another scissorsfashion and which are adjustable relative to the bobbin tube through links, preferably against spring loading, in dependency on the position of the guide device.
  • a stop is then sufficient for the control, which stop after an initial transverse movement of the entire device, for which the driving force is conducted through the spring arrangement provided, stops the movement of the device-the still continuing driving movement thereupon taking effect in a drive of the lever members carrying the guide rollers or the like, which lever members cause the endless band to embrace the bobbin tube.
  • guide cams operative positively or nonpositively under spring tension and controlling the required movements can be associated with the levers or with the slides or the like carrying the guide members facing the bobbin tube.
  • the device according to the invention is advantageously so controlled that the region of the beginning of the winding of the bobbin tube is already surrounded before its rotary movement begins.
  • a difierent mode of working that is, to allow the guide to act on the tube only when the latter is already rotating.
  • Figure 1 is a view showing diagrammatically the position of the parts of the winding-on device immediately prior to the beginning of the winding-on operation.
  • Figure 2 is a side elevation of Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a view similar to Fig. 1, but showing the parts in position at the commencement of thread winding.
  • Figure 4 is a side elevation of Figure 3.
  • Figure 5 shows the operation of the guide diagram matically on a larger scale.
  • Figures 6 and 7 are views similar to Figs. 1 and 3 but to a larger scale and showing a particular construction for operating the thread securing means.
  • the embodiment shown in the drawings is based on a conventional construction of winding frame, in which successively individual or a plurality of tubes are fed at a time and are automatically placed in position for winding and released after winding, the thread being passed automatically from a completed bobbin to the next empty tube.
  • the thread 10 is guided by a thread guide 11 over the tube in a direction desired at any time.
  • the devices 12 serving to control the position of the thread guide 11 are of known construction.
  • the mechanism serving to change the bobbin does not form the subject of the present invention.
  • the machine is provided with a clamping device 13 which at a predetermined time secures the portion of the thread leading to the ejected completely wound bobbin 14 so that this part of the thread can be separated.
  • Said guide device 16 comprises three support rollers 17, 18, 19 which are mounted rotatably on a slide (not shown in Figures '1 to 5) slidable transversely to the tube and over which an endless band 20 of rubber or other flexible material is placed.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show the guide in the initial or non-operative position. In this position the thread is not influenced by the guide device 16. The guide device assumes the same position during by far the greater part of the winding operation.
  • the slide carrying the guide device 16 is moved to the left, preferably 4 before the tube 15 is set in rotation.
  • the portion of the band 20 extending between the support rollers 18 and 19 then bears by its outer surface against the winding-on region of the tube.
  • the rollers 18 and 19 are then moved relative to one another by means not shown in Figures 1 to 5, so that as shown'in Figures 3 and 4 the tube 15 is substantially surrounded by part of the band 20.
  • the movement of the guide device 16 serving for the beginning of winding is accordingly utilised to separate the thread at a predetermined point, the device 13 by fixing the thread previously always ensuring identical initiation of the beginning of the winding process.
  • the thread end then bears, as shown by Figure 5 in particular, over its entire length against the surface of the winding-on region of the tube. Said thread end is therefore already securely fixed by a few following turns of the thread, which form after the drive is put into operation. On the subsequent windingoff of the thread therefore no obstructions can occur.
  • the guide device 16 is moved to the right back into the inoperative position shown in Figures 1 and 2, so that the remainder of the winding process is uneffected by the device.
  • Figures 6 and 7 show one particular construction of means for controlling operation of the device 16 and the control of the rollers 18 and 19 carrying the band 20.
  • the rollers 18 and 19 are mounted on approximately angular double levers 25 and 26, which in their apex regions are swingable about a common pivot 27.
  • Links 30 and 31 bear on the free ends of the angle lever arms 28 and 29 respectively, the other ends of said links being rotatably mounted at a common axis 32.
  • the axis 32 may for example be carried by a slide slidable in a guide 33.
  • a compression coil spring 34- is inserted between the slide and a slidable part of the guide device carrying the pivot 27.
  • the initial tension of said spring 34 is fixed by suitable stops of the angular double levers 25, 26 or by a link connecting the pivots 27 and 32 and forming a stop.
  • a lever 35 forked at its free end and driven so as to be rockable in timed sequence with the machine acts as drive upon the slide movable on the guide 33 and carrying the axis 32.
  • the construction shown and described above is only one particular embodiment of the invention. The latter is not limited thereto. On the contrary, many other constructions are possible. Instead of an endless band, a finite construction could be provided.
  • the guide means associated with the band may differ from the drawing in respect of number and arrangement.
  • the guide device may be embodied in machines differing from the war embodiment and having a thread adapted to be passed automatically to the tube following a completed bobbin ineachcase.
