Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a safety device for a straight knitting machine intended to ensure that the carriage stops in the event of an abrupt change in its speed following an impact or other incident such as jamming of the yarn.
  • Another solution used consists in measuring the torque necessary for driving the carriage, by means of a spring.
  • the torque increases suddenly and the detection of this increase makes it possible to stop the carriage.
  • Such detection is however coarse and does not make it possible to avoid damage for sure.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide simple, rapid and reliable detection, insensitive to disturbances other than disturbances of the movement of the carriage.
  • the device comprises means for generating pulses of length inversely proportional to the speed of the carriage, means for continuously measuring the variation in length of these pulses and means for stopping the carriage when this variation exceeds a certain reference rate.
  • a metal blade 1 Parallel to one of the needlework of the knitting machine is mounted a metal blade 1 provided with equidistant perforations 2.
  • This blade 1 is advantageously constituted by the blade already present on certain machines for counting needles, the spacing of the perforations 2 corresponding to the gauge of the needle beds.
  • a stirrup 3 integral with the carriage and carrying on one side an emitter, for example a light-emitting diode, and on the other side a sensor, for example a photodiode or a phototransistor.
  • This phototransistor can advantageously be mounted on a printed circuit comprising a first amplifier stage.
  • pulses are amplified and formed in such a way that the sequence of rectangular pulses shown in FIG. 2 is obtained approximately.
  • the signal obtained is processed by a processing unit CPU which delivers a "stop" signal when the analysis of this signal indicates a sudden disturbance in the movement of the carriage.
  • FIG. 2 schematically represents the train of pulses generated by the detector 3.
  • Each perforation 2 generates a positive pulse a followed by an interval b which can also be considered as a negative pulse.
  • the rate of change in the length of the positive pulses a is measured, on the one hand, and the rate of change in the length of the negative pulses b, on the other hand.
  • the first quotient is measured at time t ', immediately after the end of a positive pulse or upon the appearance of a negative pulse, while the second quotient is measured after each negative pulse, i.e. say as soon as a positive impulse appears.
  • the length of the pulses is advantageously measured by sampling and digital processing.
  • the rate of change is calculated and compares to the reference rate using a microprocessor.
  • the factor k is controlled by the knitting program.
  • This program can be contained in the CPU processing unit.
