Definitions

  • This invention relates to improved apparatus for processing textile yarns and more particularly the invention relates to apparatus embodying improved electrical yarn heating means for heating a segment of a running length of yarn.
  • thermostats mounted to sense the temperature of the yarn engaging surface of a heater coupled with means to regulate the supply of energy to the heater is quite capable of providing satisfactory temperature control, but the use of thermostats nevertheless has several disadvantages.
  • a first such disadvantage is that thermostats are expensive and sulficiently complicated to frequently provide operating difficulties, and a second disadvantage is that the thermostats must generally be located within the yarn heater where they are not readily accessible for adjustment purposes. In fact, with a rotary yarn heater containing one or several thermostats it is generally necessary that the heater be completely stopped for each small adjustment of the thermostats.
  • the means to automatically decrease and increase the supply of electrical energy comprises an electrical circuit for supplying energy to the heater which includes a first component embodying a switch and a second component connected in parallel to the first component and having, when the switch is closed, a higher electrical impedance than said first component, the term impedance being employed in this specification and claims in a broad sense to include actual resistance in both AC. and DC. circuit and apparent resistance in AC. circuits.
  • impedance being employed in this specification and claims in a broad sense to include actual resistance in both AC. and DC. circuit and apparent resistance in AC. circuits.
  • the apparatus can also include a variable impedance connected in series to the above-described components of the electrical circuit to provide a master control for the energy supply to the yarn heater so that the mean operating temperature of the heater can readily be adjusted at a point remote from the heater.
  • this invention also has the advantage that the means to automatically effect operation of the switch in the preferred embodiment described above, can be employed to operate a second switch to disrupt the flow of electric current through a solenoid so that such can be employed to control the operation of the apparatus without the necessity of a flow or" current through the solenoid for long periods of time.
  • Most solenoids, and particularly those of the inexpensive variety are built to withstand a flow of electric current for only limited periods of time and an arrangement which limits the maximum period of current flow through the solenoid is distinctly advantageous and permits the use of a less expensive solenoid.
  • Figure 1 is a partially schematic view in perspective showing principal parts of the apparatus in location.
  • Figure 2 is a side elevational view of the heat-treating component of the apparatus as it would appear looking from the right in Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a side elevational view of the heat-treating component of the apparatus as viewed from the left in Figure l of the drawings.
  • Figure 4 is a sectional view taken along the line 4-4 of Figure 3.
  • Figure 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the heater roll assembly taken substantially along the line 5-5 of Figure 3.
  • Figure 6 is a schematic view in perspective of the electrical components of the apparatus.
  • Figure 7 is a circuit diagram showing the flow path of electrical energy through the, electrical components of the apparatus.
  • FIG 8 is a sectional view of the stop motion means of the apparatus.
  • a plurality of yarn supply means 10 from which ends of yarn 12 and 14 are withdrawn in an over-end manner.
  • the yarn ends 12 and 14 are passed through appropriate guide means to a plurality of tension regulators 16 and thereafter to the heat-treating component of the apparatus generally indicated by the reference numeral 18.
  • the yarn ends are then passed to an electrical stop motion means 19. through appropriate guide meansand are thereafter collected by any suitable take-up means 26 here illustrated as comprising a conventional ring and traveler array.
  • the apparatus also includes driving means (not illustrated) forthe take-up means 20 and means to engage and disengage the driving means so that operation of the take-up means can temporarily be discontinued in case of a yarn break or to replace the yarn package when a full package has been collected.
  • driving means (not illustrated) forthe take-up means 20 and means to engage and disengage the driving means so that operation of the take-up means can temporarily be discontinued in case of a yarn break or to replace the yarn package when a full package has been collected.
  • a support housing 22 through which is jour- 'naled a shaft 24 carrying a stepped roll 25 of a first yarn advancing means generally indicated by the reference numeral 26.
  • This yarn advancing means also comprises a second stepped roll 28 journaled for rotation about an axis which is at a small angle to the axis of shaft 24 so that when yarn ends 12 and 14 are wrapped a plurality of turns about the rolls, adjacent turns of the yarn remain spatially separated from each other.
  • the yarn advancing means 26 serves to withdraw the ends of yarn 12 and 14 from the supply means and to advance the same to a heater -roll 30 carried by a v shaft 32 journaled through support housing 22.
  • Heater roll 30 is provided with two yarn engaging, grooved annular members .34 and 36 (see Figure 5) which are carried by an L shaped heat-distributing member 38 having an electrical heater 40 secured to one side face thereof.
  • Heater 40 is preferably of the type having a rapidly increasing resistance with increasing temperature since such 'a heater is, at least to some extent, self-regulating, and is connected to a suitable source of electrical energy through slip rings 42 and 44 and brushes 46 and 48.
  • the yarn ends 12 and 14 are withdrawn from the heater roll 36 about the sharp edge of a blade member 50 secured in position by a blade holding means 52, and is thereafter passed in a partial wrap about an unheated roll member 54 carried by a shaft 55.
  • the yarn ends 12 and 14 are thereafter passed through a spiral guide 56 and returned to yarn advancing means 26. Since the rolls of yarn advancing means 26 are in each instance stepped rolls, this device is the equivalent of two yarn advancing means and is capable of advancing the yarn on two different occasions at two different linear rates.
  • the rolls 25 and 28 can be made such that the difference in diameters of the two portions thereof provides any selected degree of overfeed or stretch as the yarn is passed from the first portion of the yarn advancing means, about yarn'heater roll 30 and cold roll 54, and thereafter led to the second portion of the yarn advancing means.
  • Yarn advancing means 60 is generally similar to yarn advancing means 26 and comprises a first roll 62 carried by a shaft 64 journaled through the wall of housing 22 and a second roll 66 rotatable about an axis extending at an angle to the axis of shaft 64 to result in proper separation of adjacent turns of yarn on the advancing means. From the yarn advancing means 69 the yarn ends 12 and 14 are passed through the stop-motion device 19 and to the take-up means 26 in the manner pre viously mentioned.
  • a drive shaft 63 which serves to drive yarn advancing means 26 and 60, cold roll 54, and the heater roll 30.
  • a drive gear 70 is secured to shaft 68 and meshes with a gear 72 journaled about a support sleeve 74 threaded into the wall of support housing 22. (See Figures 3 and 4.)
  • the gear '72 carries on one side face thereof a clutch member 76 which is one member of a clutch generally indicated by the reference numeral 78 and which cooperates with a second clutch member 80 attached on one side face of amultipie gear 82 journaled about one end of a stub shaft 84 threaded through the sleeve member 74.
  • the multiple gear 32 has a first gear element 86 which drives heater roll 3i through a small gear 88 secured to shaft 32 and drives cold roll Yarn advancing means 26 is driven from multiple gear 32 by means of a second gear element 92 and a small gear 94 secured to shaft 24, and yarn advancing means 60 is driven by means of a third gear element 95 of multiple gear 82 and a small gear 96 secured to shaft 64.
  • a small pinion 98 Secured to the protruding end of stub shaft 84 is a small pinion 98 which meshes with a gear rack on one end of a control rod 160 normally employed for placing the apparatus in operation.
  • control rod 169 As control rod 169 is moved longitudinally, shaft 84 is rotated and moves axially by virtue of being in threadwise engagement with sleeve '74 and axial movement of the stub shaft 84 results in engagementv of clutch 78.
  • Control rod 1.06 is not normally employed to effect disengagement of clutch 7S and stopping of the apparatus because this is accomplished automatically in a manner to be subsequently described.
  • Secured to the end face of pinion 98 is a disk cam 102 and secured to this disk cam is a small bushing 164 and thimble 105 about which is.
  • Flexible cable 106 extends through an opening in housing 22 and about a guide pulley 168 to the disengaging means which acts to stop operation of the twister array 20 and insures that clutch members 76 and 80 are separated by rotation of stub shaft 84 when operation of the twister array is terminated.
  • a dog 110 is pivotally secured to support housing 22 and, in normal operation, engages a cam surface 111 on cam 102 to prevent rotation of the cam and disengagement of the clutch 78.
  • dog 11t is connected through a link 112 to the core of a solenoid 114 and by electrically connecting solenoid 114 to stop-motion means 19 and spring biasing cable 106, automatic stopping of both the heat processing component of the apparatus and the take-up component of the apparatus is effected upon yarn breakage.
  • Micro-switch 116 is a componentpart of aev'nses an electrical circuit, including conductors 120 and 122 connected to asuitable source of electrical power, for supplying energy to heater 4t and is connected in parallel with a first variable resistance 124 and in series with a second variable resistance 126 and yarn heater 40.
  • micro-switch 116 Since micro-switch 116 is normally closed, it provides only a negligible resistance to the flow of an electric current so that the amount of energy supplied to yarn heater 40 during normal operation of the apparatus is, with a selected e.m.f. across conductors 120 and 122, determined primarily only by the setting of variable resistance 126, but upon disengagement of clutch 78, rotation of disk cam 102 and opening of micro-switch 116, electrical energy supplied to heater 40 must pass in series through both resistance 124 and resistance 126.
  • lt iicro-switch 113 is a component part of a circuit for supplying energy to solenoid 114 and is connected in series relationship with the solenoid 114 and stop-motion means 19 to a suitable source of electrical power supplied through conductors 120 and 122.
  • the stop-motion means 19 comprises a switch which is normally open so that there is no flow of electric current through solenoid 114 even though microsWitch 118 is closed. If, however, the stop-motion means is operated due to yarn breakage, this closes the electric circuit through solenoid 114 so that dog 110 is removed from operative position and shaft 84 carrying cam 1G2. rotates to disengage clutch 78.
  • micro-switch 118 is opened to terminate the flow of electric current through solenoid 114. It will be seen, therefore, that there is no flow of electric current through solenoid 114 except for short periods during which clutch 78 is being disengaged, so that there is no need for the solenoid to be so constructed that it is capable of withstanding current flow for prolonged periods.
  • the electrical stop-motion means of this invention can be conventional, but as illustrated comprises an improved device for use as a compoennt of the illustrated apparatus.
  • a support bracket 128 carrying a rotary switch 129 which is operated by rotation of a shaft 139.
  • a contact wire 131 Positioned through shaft 130 is a contact wire 131 having a depending portion and an upper terminal portion which extends generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of shaft 13%, and journaled about the shaft 130 are a plurality of feeler arms 132 provided, in each instance, with a yarn guide eye 134 which is operatively positioned generally above a guide rod member 136.
  • Guide rod member 136 serves the function of providing a support for the yarn ends 12 and 14 closely adjacent the point where they are passed through guide eyes 134 and also serves as a stop to limit the degree to which feeler arms 132 can pivot when they are unsupported by a tensioned end of yarn.
  • the switch 129 is a component part ofthe supply circuit for supplying energy to solenoid 114 and in normal operation yarn ends inserted through guideeyes 134 retain the feeler arms 132 out of contact with wire 131 so that the switch 129 remains open and no electrical energy is supplied to the solenoid 114. If. however, a yarn end breaks, the feeler arm supported thereby drops so that it contacts the upper terminal portion of wire member 131 to rotate shaft 130, which closes switch 129 and thereby activates the solenoid 114 to stop the apparatus.
  • an arm member 138 Pivotally secured to and depending from support bracket 128 is an arm member 138 having a protruding contact member 140, which engages the depending portion of wire 131 when the arm is pivoted upwardly to thereby rotate shaft and close switch 129.
  • a ratchet roll 142 is carried by the unsupported end of arm 138 and is designed such that the yarn passing through guide eyes 134 can be wrapped one or more turns thereabout in their passage from the guide eyes to the take-up means 20.
  • the ratchet roll 142 is so constructed that it is freely rotatable by the yarns wrapped thereabout when they are traveling in a proper direction to the take-up means 20 but is not rotatable in the opposite direction, and in the event that the yarn ends 12 and 14 break in the vicinity of the take-up means 20 and become improperly wrapped about the rolls of the yarn advancing means 60, reverse motion of the yarns in the vicinity of the stop motion device results in the arm 138 being lifted to close switch 129 and thereby stop the apparatus.
  • the improved stop-motion means results in prompt stopping of the apparatus upon breakage of the yarns at a point in the yarn path subsequent to the stopmotion means or upon yarn breakage or depletion at a point in the yarn path preceding the stop-motion means.
