Definitions

  • a textile thread-winding apparatus has a turret with two spindles each adapted to receive a thread carrier.
  • the turret can turn to bring either of the spindles into the winding on station, and in so doing, it pushes a deflector into the path of the thread.
  • the deflector guides the thread onto a catcher on the spindle at the winding on station, so that the latter begins to pick up the thread.
  • the full package continues to rotate even at the reserve station until the trailing thread to the catcher is severed.
  • Thread-winding apparatus is used in the textile industry to wind all kinds of threads on to various carriers such as bobbins, pims and tubes.
  • the present invention is concerned with textile thread-winding apparatus generally, and while in this specification reference will be made to winding on to tubes, it is to be understood that other types of carrier could be used.
  • thread is intended to include not only twisted yarns, but also untwisted or partially twisted slubbings and filaments.
  • a practical embodiment of the invention has indeed been designed to wind narrow tapes of plastics material (e.g. polypropylene) and this is an indication of the breadth of the term thread as used herein.
  • This invention relates to winding apparatus in which there is a winding station and at least one reserve station, there being automatic mechanism for bringing an empty carrier placed on a reserve station to the winding station, and for moving the filled carrier from the winding station to a reserve station so that the filled carrier can be removed from the reserve station and replaced by an empty one, manually, at any time while the winding process is in operation without stopping the machine.
  • a textile thread-winding apparatus has a mechanism for moving a filled thread carrier from a winding station to a reserve station, and for moving an empty carrier from a reserve station to the winding station and deflector means adapted to be placed in an operative relationship with the empty carrier when the latter arrives at the winding station to guide the thread then extending from a supply source to the filled carrier on to a thread catcher rotatable with the empty carrier.
  • the deflector means may take the form of a substantially rigid member movable into a position where it deflects the thread from its natural (free) path, and having a surface which engages with the thread, this surface being so shaped that the tension of the thread causes the thread to move over the surface towards the position where it engages on the thread catcher.
  • the winding apparatus may include a reciprocable thread guide for traversing the thread along the carrier as it is being wound, in which case, the apparatus-may be adapted to use the traverse of the thread by the thread guide to move the thread over the surface of the deflector on to the thread catcher.
  • the apparatus includes means for moving the deflector member with the empty carrier to engage with the thread between the thread guide and the filled carrier as the empty carrier arrives at the winding station.
  • the deflector comprises a wire rod extending parallel with the longitudinal axis of the empty carrier and curved inwardly towards the axis of the carrier at the thread catcher end of the carrier.
  • the apparatus has a laying on roller which presses the thread on to the carrier at the winding on station, then the laying on roller will be movable towards and away from the axis of the carrier to allow for build up of the thread package.
  • cam means are preferably associated with the mechanism for moving the carrier to move the laying on roller outwardly to allow the deflector to pass between it and the empty carrier when a change takes place.
  • driving means are provided for rotating a carrier about its own axis for the purpose of thread winding.
  • the driving means is preferably of a friction type to permit slip to occur when a predetermined load is exceeded. It is also preferred that the drivingmeans shall be so arranged that it is capable of rotating a'carrier at both the winding and reserve stations and during the transition from one stage to the other. Further, it is preferred to provide control means whereby the driveto a carrier at the reserve station can be started and stopped as required by the changeover cycle of the apparatus.
  • the driving means for rotating the carrier includes a variable torque coupling adapted to transmit an increased torque during that part of the changeover cycle when a carrier is'being rotated at the reserve station.
  • a turret rotatable about its own axis, and having at least two thread carrier mountings, any one of which can be brought to the winding station (when another will be at the reserve station) by rotation of the turret, there being means for locking the turret in any of the positions where one of the carriers mountings is at the winding station.
  • the turret rotation mechanism may include a reciprocable prime mover, operating on the turret through a unidirectional drive transmitter, so that only movement of the prime mover in one direction is converted into rotation of the turret.
  • the means for locking the turret may comprise a resiliently loaded pawl engageable with a shoulder on a part rotatable with the turret to resist motion of the turret beyond the desired position when the prime mover moves in the driving direction.
  • a spindle adapted to be rotated from a constantly rotated drive shaft, coaxial with the turret, through a friction drive.
  • This friction drive may include a spring loaded member normally in the driving position but disengageable by a drive release device at the reserve station.
  • Mechanism for rotating the turret is preferably fluid operated (hydraulic or pneumatic) and may be a ram and cylinder device with a rack fixed to the ram engaging a pinion.
  • the winding apparatus has a thread-transversing mechanism for traversing the thread axially of the carrier during the winding process, and control mechanism is provided whereby the operation of the turret-turning mechanism is only possible when the thread is about to traverse towards the thread catcher.
  • This can be achieved by a switch or valve controlling the turret-turning mechanism and operated by a cam driven by the traversing mechanism.
  • threads it may be adequate to rely on tension in the thread between the thread catcher and the carrier which has just moved to the reserve station to break the thread to permit winding on to the empty carrier to commence.
  • a thread cutter positioned so that thread extending from the carrier which is just arriving at the reserve station to the thread catcher will cross the cutter and be severed by it.
  • the cutter may have a blade or it may comprise an electric resistance wire adapted to be heated to sever the thread when a current is passed through it.
  • a winding head of a machine for winding polypropylene tape on to tubes for use in loom shuttles, which machine is constructed in accordance with the invention, will not be described by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:

  • spindle turret 10 rotatable about its own longitudinal axis, and mounting two spindles 11 and 12 at positions mutually at 180 to each other around the axis of the turret.
  • Each of the spindles 11 and 12 is adapted to receive a tube (not shown) and is split at 14 so that it can contract slightly when the tube is fitted to ensure that the tube is firmly gripped on the spindle.
  • a spring tube holder of the kind well known for holding textile tubes on creels, spindles and the like could be provided on the spindle to grip the tube on its inside.
  • the machine is driven by an electric motor (not shown) and there is a belt drive to a pulley 15 coaxial with the turret 10.
  • the pulley 15 is keyed on to an input shaft 16 of a coupling 120, the driven member of which is keyed on to a spindle drive shaft 17.
  • the coupling 120 is a magnetic particle coupling which uses a ferromagnetic powder as the drive medium.
  • the important feature of this type of coupling for the purpose of this invention is that the coupling can slip, but the torque transmitted is entirely dependent on the applied excitation current. Consequently, during operation the torque output of the coupling can be altered by altering the applied current.
  • the other end of the shaft 17 carries a friction drive pulley 18 (see FIG. 4).
  • Each of the spindles 11 and 12 is provided with a pulley 19, 20 and there are idler pulleys 21, 22 each having a rubber tire, which both engage with the drive pulley 18, and respectively engage with the pulley l9 and 20. So long as either of the idler pulleys remains in contact with its spindle pulley 19 or 20, it will transmit drive from the drive pulley 18 to its spindle.
  • FIG. 4 shows that each idler pulley 21,22 is carried on a lever 23, 24 pivoted on the turret at 25, 26 these levers are loaded by springs 23a and 24a to press their respective pulleys 21 and 22 into engagement with the drive pulley 18 and the spindle pulleys 19 and 20.
  • the spindle in the position indicated in FIGS. 1B, 2 and 4 as 11 is in the winding on station while the spindle 12 is in the reserve station-but it will be appreciated that this will be reversed if the turret 10 is rotated through 180.
  • a solenoid 27 At the side of the machine remote from the winding on station, there is a solenoid 27 the control of which will be described later.
  • the armature of the solenoid is connected by a link 28 with one end of a two-armed lever 29 pivoted on a fixed part of the machine at 30.
  • the other arm of the lever 29 has a spigot 31, which is capable of engagement with the end of whichever of the levers 23 and 24 is at the reserve station.
  • a tension spring 32 is attached at one end to the lever 29, and at its other end it is anchored to a pin 33 fixed on the machine.
  • This spring pulls the lever 29 to engage the spigot 31 on the lever 23 or 24, and the spring 32 is strong enough to overcome the spring loading of the lever 23 or 24, so that it disengages the idler pulley 21 or 22 from the spindle pulley 19 or 20 as indicated by the chain dotted line in FIG. 4.
  • the turret 10 is fixed to a tube 34 supported in journal bearings 35 and 36, and the drive shaft 17 passes through this tube and is free to rotate in a needle bearing 37 and a ball bearing 38.
  • FIGS. 1A and 6 The mechanism for turning the turret is illustrated'in FIGS. 1A and 6, and in this instance it is pneumatically operated, although it should be understood that hydraulic or purely mechanical (e.g. crank) operation is possible.
  • a pneumatic cylinder 40 is mounted below the turret, and its piston rod 41 carried a toothed rack 42 which meshes with a pinion 44 rotatable on the tube 34.
  • the pinion 44 is compounded with the driving part of a freewheel device 45, and the driven part of this device is keyed on to the tube 34.
  • the arrangement of the freewheel drive is such that drive is only transmitted to the tube 34 when the piston rod 41 is projected to push the rack 42 upwardly, and this produces rotation of the turret 10 in the anticlockwise direction as viewed in FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 5 The mechanism for locking the turret at its two possible positions is illustrated in FIG. 5.
  • a cam disc 46 is keyed on to the tube 34 and this disc has two identical halves each rising from a low point to a high point with a sudden step 47, 48 at the junction between one high point and the adjacent low point.
  • a stop lever 51 is pivoted at 52 to the frame, and this lever occupies a position above the cam disc 46.
  • a detent 53 on the lever 51 is engageable with either of the steps 47 and 48 to prevent rotation of the cam disc 46.
  • a tension spring 57 is anchored to the lever 51 at 58 and to a fixed part of the frame at 59. Normally, the spring 57 pulls the stop lever 51 downwardly and this holds the detent 53 in engagement with one of the steps 47, 48.
  • a release cam 60 is fixed on a freewheel device at 45, and is engageable with a pin 61 projecting from the stop lever 51 (see also FIG. 6).
  • the arrangement so far described provided means for mounting the tubes on the two spindles, means for bringing the tubes one at a time to the winding on station, and means for rotating the spindle at the winding on station to wind the tapes on to it.
  • the tape is brought from the supply station, through a traversing guide 63, and over a laying on roller 64 which presses the tape on to the tube on the spindle at the winding on station to ensure that a firm package is produced.
  • the laying on roller is freely rotatable on needle bearings 65 and 66 on a spindle 67 which is carried by arms 68 fastened to a part 69 which is capable of turning about the axis of a traversing shaft 70 arranged parallel with the shaft 17.
  • the traversing guide 63 is mounted on a slider 71 slidable on a fixed rod 72 arranged parallel with the shaft 70.
  • a roller follower 73 carried by the slider 71 engages in a groove 74 in a reversed helical cam 75 fixed to the shaft 70. Only part of the cam 75 is shown in FIG. 1, but it will be understood that this cam is of a type well known in the textile industry for traversing the slider 71 and its guide 63 backwards and forwards along the length of the tube to lay the tape evenly along I the tube.
  • a pinion 82 on the shaft 81 drives a wheel 83 on the layshaft 84, and a pinion 85 on the layshaft 84 drives a wheel 86 carried on a stub shaft 87.
  • the wheel 86 meshes with and drives a large wheel 88 keyed on to the traversing shaft 70.
  • a thread guide device as shown in FIG. 7 is fitted to the turret (see also FIGS. 1A, 1B and 2) and comprises a mounting block 91 into which are fastened the ends of a wire rod.
  • the latter is bent to provide radial members 92 and 93 and two longitudinal members 92a and 93a joined by an S-shaped end portion 94.
  • 'a strengthening rod 94a may be fitted between the block 91 and the center of the S portion 94.
  • the device 90 is fitted to the turret 10 so that the longitudinal member 92a is associated with the spindle 12 and the member 920 is associated with the spindle 11.
  • Each member 92a, 93a extends parallel with its spindle to a position near to the inner end where it sweeps round a curve 91a towards its spindle.
  • a cam plate 95 is fixed to the turret and has lobes 96 and 97 at the positions where the guide members 920 and 93a are fitted.
  • a roller 98 is carried by the laying on roller spindle 67 and this roller engages on the peripheral surface of the plate 95.
  • a block 131 Fixed on the cam plate 95 at the center is a thread cutter unit 130, shown in detail in 'FIG. 11.
  • a block 131 has two cutter blades 132 and 133 clamped respectively on to its opposite sides by clamp plates 134 secured by screws 136. The disposition of the blades 132 and 133 is clearly shown in FIG. 2 and it will be observed that they are close to the pins 103 on the spindles 11 and 12.
  • a ring 100 (see FIG. 10) is fixed to the inner end of each spindle 11, 12 and a series of short pins 103 projects from each of these rings. These pins provide a thread-catching device.
  • a part annular member 102 is fixed to the turret and embraces part of the ring 100, there being bristles 104 projecting inwardly from the member 102 which serve to trap tape caught on one of the pins 103 to ensure that the tape cannot escape from the pins once it has been caught.
  • a solenoid-controlled pneumatic valve- 106 (FIG. 8) is fitted in the circuit of the cylinder 40, and there is also a relay 107 for the control circuit.
  • the electrical control gear besides the apparatus already described includes a normally open switch 108 (FIG. 4) which is adapted to be closed by a pin 109 which joins the armature of the solenoid 27 to the link 28. Consequently, the switch 108 is closed each time the solenoid pulls down the lever 29 to allow drive to be connected to the spindle at the reserve station.
  • a normally open switch 108 (FIG. 4) which is adapted to be closed by a pin 109 which joins the armature of the solenoid 27 to the link 28. Consequently, the switch 108 is closed each time the solenoid pulls down the lever 29 to allow drive to be connected to the spindle at the reserve station.
  • an automatic time delay switch 110 which is set to the period between carrier changeovers (i.e. the time during which tape will be wound on to one tube) and a time delay switch 111 whichcontrol the period allowed for the changeover to take place.
  • the overall operation of the machine will not be described. Supposing that the parts are in the positionshown and that tape is being wound on to a tube on the spindle 11.
  • the length of tape delivered is determined by the setting of the timer 110, although it will be appreciated that it could be measured by some kind of detector on the winding machine. When the required length has been wound on to the tube, an electrical signal appears at the timer 110.
  • This signal allows current to flow through the solenoid 27 to release the lever 24 so that drive is transmitted from the driving shaft 17 to the spindle 12. Therefore the tube at the reserve station (which will be an empty tube) begins to rotate.
  • the solenoid 27 When the solenoid 27 is energized, it causes the switch 108 to be closed, and this short circuits variable resistances 112 and 113 arranged in series with the magnetic particle coupling 120.'The resistances 112 and 113 are set so that the coupling will transmit only sufficient torque to keep thecorrect tension in the tape, the winding apparatus operating with constant torque. When the resistances 112 and 113 are cut out, the torque transmitted by the coupling is greater and is adequate to drive both spindles 11 and 12.
  • the machine continues to wind thread on to the tube on the spindle 11, but at the same time the spindle 12 is being brought up to the correct winding speed.
  • the cam 76 closes the switch 77.
  • Current then ceases to flow through the air valve solenoid 106, and consequently the air supply to the pneumatic cylinder 40 is reversed, so that the rod 41 is projected to the extended position shown in FIG. 6 and this rotates the turret 10 through I I Current can then also flow through the switches 62 and 77 so that the relay ,107 is energized.
  • the relay operates a latching switch 121 in the electrical circuit, and this latches on the relay via a conductor 122, so that it remains energized until the timer 11 l operates to cut off the current through the conductor 122.
  • the relay 107 When the relay 107 is actuated, it opens the relay contact 122 and this maintains the solenoid valve 106 in the position such that the rod 41 is held in its projected position and cannot attempt to reoperate.
  • the spindle 12 is brought into the winding on station, and the guide rod 920 pushes the tape extending from the laying on roller 64 to the tube on the spindle 11 (now at the reserve station) downwardly.
  • the tape thus becomes deflated and runs on the outside of the guide wire 920.
  • the tape will be travelling inwardly, and at the end of its inward traverse, it slides around the curved part 91a of the guide wire because it is being pulled taut by the continued rotation of the spindle 11.
  • the tape then becomes caught on the pins 103 and begins to wind on to the spindle l2 and then, due to the traverse of the guide 63, on to the tube on the spindle 12.
  • the spindle 11 Since the tape is then being wound on to the tube on the spindle 12, but at the same time, the spindle 11 is still rotating and attempting to wind the tape on to its tube, the length of tape between the pins 103 of the spindle 12 and the tube on the spindle 11 is stretched taut across the cutter blade 132 (then in the opposite position to that illustrated in FIG. 2) and the tape is severed. The tail is then wound on to the full tube on the spindle l1.
  • the solenoid 27 is deenergized and this allows the spindle 11 to stop so that it can be removed manually when desired and replaced by a fresh empty tube.
  • the release of the solenoid 27 causes the switch 108 to be opened, and this switches the coupling control circuit to the winding condition so that the torque output of the coupling is reduced to that required for winding on the thread.
  • the relay 107 is deenergized and this allows the contact 122 to close and the relay contact 121 to revert to its set position. Since the fall of the lever 51 when the turret is rotated will open the interlock switch 62, all the electrical circuit is restored to normal and the timer 110 begins to time the winding on to the tube on the spindle 12.
  • the severing of the tape or thread is susceptible to being realized in a variety of ways.
  • the thread will be severed simplydue to the tension caused by the continued rotation of the spindle which has just moved to the reserve station after the thread has been caught on the thread catcher of the spindle just arrived at the winding on station. Consequently, the cutter would not be required.
  • variable torque coupling in relation to this question of thread severing should not be overlooked.
  • This coupling allows an increased torque to be transmitted as previously described during the changeover period. Consequently, the power applied to drive the spindle which has just moved to the reserve station is adequate to hold the thread taut enough for severing by a cutter (and in some instances is sufficient to break the thread), but during the winding on period, the power is reduced so that the package is not wound too tightly.
  • the method of driving the two spindles during the changeover period by the arrangement illustrated in FIG. 4 is very useful in enabling a. the spindle which is moving into the winding on position to be brought up to speed, and
  • the cutter may have an electric resistance wire which is heated so as to be capable of severing the thread when the latter is stretched over it.
  • the cutter with either a blade or a heated wire, may be positioned differently. For example it could be pressed into engagement with the cylindrical surface of the ring 100 (FIG. 10).
  • the cutter engages in the groove. When a thread is caught on the two rows of pins, it must cross the groove at some point, and it will be cut when this part of the thread passes the cutter.
  • the winding on spindle and the traversing cam are driven from the same motor through two separate belt drives to the pulleys l5 and 80 and this results in a random relationship between the winding on and the thread traverse. Even if the drives are coupled together by a positive driving mechanism such as a chain drive, there will be the same random relationship due to the slipping action of the clutch 120. If a precisely controlled wind is required then the output of the coupling 120 must be geared to the traversing drive shaft 81, but this calls for a more powerful clutch 120.
  • a single set of electrical timers such as 110 and 111, can be used to operate the changeover of a series of thread winding stations as shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B and 2 on a single machine.
  • a textile thread-winding device having a winding station and a reserve station and comprising support means; first and second thread carrier mountings on said support means; said support means being mounted for movement between a first position, whereat said first thread carrier mounting is at said winding station and second thread carrier mounting is at said reserve station, and a second position, whereat said first thread carrier mounting is at said reserve station and said second thread carrier mounting is at said winding station; driving means for rotating whichever of said mountings is at said winding station; first and second thread catches mounted respectively at said first and second thread carrier mountings and being rotatable about their respective axes, and first and second deflectors mounted on said support means for movement therewith, said deflectors being respectively positioned in proximity to said first and second thread carrier mountings, and arranged so as to deflect thread passing to a carrier on the associated mounting when that mounting is at said winding station, onto said thread catcher associated with that mountmg.
