Definitions

  • the invention relates to weft yarn mixing devices which allow different wefts, possibly of different colors, to be inserted from a feed located outside a weaving machine.
  • devices of this kind include a support to be fixed on the machine and on which are mounted: a plurality of fingers for presenting the different weft threads adapted to each take, selectively, ie an active active position for presenting a thread corresponding frame, ie a retracted inactive position; first individual positive control means for bringing each presentation finger to the advanced active position; second individual positive control means for returning each presentation finger to its retracted inactive position; general control means of the aforementioned first individual control means, adapted to be connected to the main shaft of the machine to operate in synchronism with said shaft; means for selective connection between the general control means and the first individual control means; and programmed selection control means suitable for controlling said selective connection means.
  • a weft mixing device as defined above, has been described for example in document GB-A-2099863 and its definition is repeated in the preamble of claim 1 appended.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback by allowing a presentation finger to remain, for several successive cycles, in the advanced position, without returning to the retracted position, if the same weft thread is used several times successively.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in that the second individual means for controlling the return of each presentation finger to its retracted inactive position are also subjected to the action of the selective connection means, and in that each presentation finger is connected to a rocker arm subjected to the antagonistic actions programmed by the first and second individual control means.
  • the second return control means are also subject to selective connection means and to the fact that a rocker arm, to which the presentation finger is coupled, is controlled by both the first and second control means, a presentation finger which has been advanced will remain in this advanced position, without being brought back each cycle to the retracted position, if the same weft thread is to be used for several successive cycles.
  • the weft yarn mixing device for a weaving machine shown in FIG. 1 is mounted on a support 1 to be fixed on the machine; it includes a plurality of fingers such as 2, for presenting the different weft threads, eight in number, for example.
  • the finger 2 can slide in a hole 3 of the support 1, its distal end has an eye 4 for receiving a weft thread, while its proximal end is articulated, by an axis 5, on a rocker arm 6 which can pivot on an axis 7 carried by the support 1.
  • the finger 2 can selectively take either a remote inactive position which is that shown in solid lines in the drawing, or an advanced active position for presenting the corresponding weft yarn which is that shown in broken lines in 2A.
  • finger 2 is shown rectilinear, while other fingers, such as 2B and 2C, are shown curved and this so that the different fingers present their weft threads in substantially the same location, moreover possibly several threads at the same time, for example two.
  • Each presentation finger is associated with a rocker arm; thus, the different fingers 2, 2B and 2C, for example, are associated, respectively, rockers 6, 6B and 6C (see also Figure 3).
  • the general control means comprise: a grooved cam 11, a shaft 12 which rotates in a bearing 13 integral with the support 1 and on which the cam 11 is fixed, a toothed pulley 14 also fixed on the shaft 12, a toothed belt 15 which passes over the toothed pulley 14 and over another pulley (not shown) connected to the main shaft of the machine, so that the cam 11 rotates in synchronism with said main shaft of the machine; a roller 17 housed in the groove of the cam 11, a lever 18 with two arms 19, 21 which pivots, by its top, on an axis 22 also carried by the support 1, an axis 23 which is mounted on the end of the arm 21 and which carries the roller 17, an axis 25 mounted on the end of the other arm 19 of the two-arm lever, a connecting rod 24, one end of which is articulated on the axis 25, a crank 26, the hub 27 (see also FIG.
  • This mechanism comprises: a bush 45 also mounted with free pivoting and sliding on the shaft 28 next to the hub 27 of the crank 26 and whose face adjacent to said hub also has a diametrical groove 46 capable of engaging on the pin 41, when the sleeve 45 is pushed against the hub 27 of the crank, under the action of a handle 47 which is pivotally mounted on a transverse axis 48 planted in the sleeve 45 and which has an extension 51 whose end is engaged in an arc-shaped lumen 52 formed in a guide 53 integral with the support 1, in the form of a portion of cylindrical surface, coaxial with the shaft 28, which makes it possible to rotate the shaft 28 by means of the lever previously pushed in the direction of arrow f2 to ensure the disengagement of the mechanical control.
  • the individual means for controlling the weft presentation fingers have a positive action in both directions. They comprise, for each finger, for example for finger 2 associated with the rocker arm 6, an active positioning drawer 56 and an inactive positioning drawer 57 connected to the rocker arm 6 by two pushers 58, 59, respectively.
  • the two drawers 56 and 57 are slidably mounted in slides 61, 62 fixed on the support 1.
  • the two pushers 58, 59 are engaged, by one of their rounded ends, in the bottom of corresponding rounded notches 63, 64 formed in the two drawers, and, at their other end, in the form of a cylindrical head 65, 66, in bores in the form of corresponding cylindrical surface portions 67, 68 formed in the rocker arm 6.
  • the means for selective connection between the general control means and the individual means for controlling the presentation fingers comprise, for each finger, a push rod 71 whose proximal end is articulated on the axis 34 general control means, the distal end of which, cut at a bevel 72 (see also FIG. 4), can engage, selectively, either in a notch 73 of the upper drawer 56 for placing the corresponding finger in active position when said push rod occupies its high position shown in FIG. 4, or in a notch 74 in the lower drawer 57 for placing the finger inactive position when the push rod occupies its low position as shown in FIG. 1.
  • each push rod such as 71
  • the passage of each push rod, such as 71, from its low position to its high position is done under the control of programmed selection control means.
  • These means comprise, for each push rod, an individual electromagnet 76 fixed on the support 1, assisted by a spring 77 which tends to move the push rod away from the poles of the electromagnet.
  • mechanical means are provided which bring automatically and positively each push rod into contact with the poles of the corresponding electromagnet, at the end of each movement of stem recoil.
  • These means comprise a cam 78 on the push rod 71, which cooperates with a fixed stop 79 secured to the support 1, the locations of the cam on the push rod and the stop on the support, as well as the configuration and the dimensions. of said cam, being such that, only when the push rod reaches the end of its recoil stroke, under the action of the general control means, it is raised positively, under the effect of said cam, against the poles of the electromagnet 76.
  • the device comprises manual selection control means in the form of individual selection levers associated with each of the push rods; these levers such as 81 or 82, for example, associated with the push rods 71, 71 B for controlling the presentation fingers 2, 2B respectively, are pivotally mounted on a common axis 83 carried by the support 1, and are located just below the corresponding push rods. So. when exercising, by hand, on the outer end of these levers. a vertical thrust from top to bottom, that is to say in the direction of arrow f3 in FIG. 1, the inner end of the lever keeps the corresponding push rod 71, 71 B raised against the spring 77, as long as the manual push is maintained on the lever.
  • these levers such as 81 or 82, for example, associated with the push rods 71, 71 B for controlling the presentation fingers 2, 2B respectively, are pivotally mounted on a common axis 83 carried by the support 1, and are located just below the corresponding push rods. So. when exercising, by hand, on the outer end of these levers
  • the weft thread to be presented is another thread than that which has just been presented by the finger 2B. for example that threaded into the eye of finger 2. It is then the electromagnet 76, associated with the push rod 71, which is excited; it maintains this rod in the raised position (FIG. 4) while the continued rotational movement of the cam 11 causes all of the push rods to advance.
  • each rocker arm is brought into a positive position in a timely manner in the active position under the action of a push rod in the high position, and that it is also automatically and positively brought into position inactive, under the action of the same push rod in the low position. It can also be said that each rocker arm is returned to the inactive position when another rocker arm is placed in the active position, so that any presentation finger remains permanently in the active position as long as the wire frame it controls must be inserted successively several times.
