Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Reinigungsvorrichtung für Textilmaschinen gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a cleaning device for textile machines according to the preamble of claim 1.

Derartige, z.B. aus der FR-A-2 310 428 bekannte Reinigungsvorrichtungen sind üblicherweise entlang einer Reihe von Textilmaschinen verfahrbar oberhalb der Textilmaschinen auf Fahrschienen gelagert und dienen dazu, mittels entsprechender Blas- und Saugschläuche die Textilmaschinen rein zu halten. Entsprechend den ausgelegten Fahrschienen kann eine Vielzahl von Textilmaschinen "in einem Zuge" überfahren werden, was eine kostengünstige Reinigungsmöglichkeit der Textilmaschinen bietet.Such, e.g. Cleaning devices known from FR-A-2 310 428 are usually mounted on rails along a number of textile machines above the textile machines and serve to keep the textile machines clean by means of appropriate blow and suction hoses. A large number of textile machines can be run over "in one go" in accordance with the designed travel rails, which offers an inexpensive cleaning option for the textile machines.

Andererseits geht man im Sinne einer integrierten Fertigung mehr und mehr dazu über, Textilmaschinen unterschiedlicher Bauart in einem Saal, und ggf. nahe benachbart zueinander, anzuordnen. Dementsprechend stehen dann beispielsweise Ringspinnmaschinen und Spulmaschinen nebeneinander und sollen mit der gleichen Reinigungsvorrichtung gereinigt werden. Hierzu sind eine Vielzahl von Lösungen vorgeschlagen worden, um eine Anpassung der Lage der Blas- und Saugschläuche an die unterschiedlichen Reinigungserfordernisse der unterschiedlichen Textilmaschinen, je in Abhängigkeit von der von der Reinigungsvorrichtung überfahrenen Textilmaschine, zu erreichen.On the other hand, in the sense of integrated production, more and more people are moving to arranging textile machines of different designs in a hall, and possibly close to each other. Correspondingly, ring spinning machines and winding machines, for example, then stand side by side and should be cleaned with the same cleaning device. For this purpose, a large number of solutions have been proposed in order to adapt the position of the blowing and suction hoses to the different cleaning requirements of the different textile machines, depending on the textile machine run over by the cleaning device.

So ist es bekannt geworden, die Blasschläuche beim Auftreten von Hindernissen je aufzurollen oder anzuheben, wobei dann allerdings je die Reinigungswirkung der Blas- und Saugschläuche im wesentlichen aufgehoben ist.Thus, it has become known to roll up or lift the blow hoses when obstacles occur, although the cleaning action of the blow and suction hoses is then essentially canceled.

Gemäß einem weiteren Vorschlag sind die Schläuche um ein Drehgelenk mit einer vertikalen Drehachse gelagert, mit dem ein Verschwenken erzeugt werden soll, das zugleich eine Breitenanpassung erlaubt.According to a further proposal, the hoses are mounted around a swivel joint with a vertical axis of rotation, with which swiveling is to be generated, which at the same time permits width adjustment.

Diese Lösung bietet jedoch verschiedene Nachteile: Zum einen wird durch das Verschwenken stets auch die Düse mit verschwenkt, so daß eine Ausrichtung zur Textilmaschine hin nicht länger sichergestellt ist. Zum anderen hat es sich gezeigt, daß die beweglichen Schläuche gerade bei einer Drehbewegung aufgrund der Zentrifugalkraft zu Schleuder- und Schlenkerbewegungen neigen, die sogar für die Umgebung des Blasschlauchs gefährlich sein können und in jedem Fall die Lebensdauer des Blasschlauchs herabsetzen.However, this solution has various disadvantages: on the one hand, the pivoting also always pivots the nozzle, so that alignment with the textile machine is no longer ensured. On the other hand, it has been shown that the flexible hoses tend to spin and diverge movements during a rotary movement due to the centrifugal force, which movements can even be dangerous for the surroundings of the blow hose and in any case reduce the life of the blow hose.

Man ist daher dazu übergegangen, für die Schläuche stabiles Material zu verwenden, um das Ausmaß der Beschädigung nach Möglichkeit gering zu halten.It has therefore started to use stable material for the hoses in order to keep the extent of the damage as low as possible.

Andererseits werden die Zentrifugalkräfte bei stabileren und dementsprechend schwereren Schläuchen größer, so daß die Lager in dem Drehgelenk, sowohl was die axiale als auch was die radiale Belastung angeht, entsprechend verstärkt werden mußten.On the other hand, the centrifugal forces become larger with more stable and correspondingly heavier hoses, so that the bearings in the swivel joint, both in terms of the axial and the radial load, had to be strengthened accordingly.

Ferner ist es bei diesen Drehgelenk-Schläuchen auch bekannt, die den Textilmaschinen zugewandte Lage der Düsen bzw. Saugmundstücke der Schläuche dadurch sicherzustellen, daß spezielle Vorrichtungen die Schlauchdrehung kompensieren und hierdurch die Düsen in Stellung halten sollen.Furthermore, it is also known in these swivel hoses to ensure that the position of the nozzles or suction mouthpieces of the hoses facing the textile machines is ensured by the fact that special devices are intended to compensate for the hose rotation and thereby hold the nozzles in position.

Diese Lösung ist jedoch zum einen aufwendig. Außerdem ist sie sehr störanfällig, da gerade im Bereich der Saugmundstücke sich in dem Drehlagerspalt für das jeweilige Saugmundstück sehr leicht Staub absetzt, so daß die Verdrehvorrichtung für das Saugmundstück sich verklemmt.On the one hand, this solution is complex. In addition, it is very susceptible to faults, since dust settles very easily in the pivot bearing gap in the area of the suction mouthpieces for the respective suction mouthpiece, so that the twisting device for the suction mouthpiece jams.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Reinigungsvorrichtung für Textilmaschinen gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 zu schaffen, die eine Anpassung an unterschiedliche Textilmaschinen-Bauarten, die hintereinander überfahren werden, erlaubt, die aber betriebssicherer arbeitet, flexibler anpaßbar ist und dennoch einen sehr geringen Bauaufwand erfordert.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a cleaning device for textile machines according to the preamble of claim 1, which allows an adaptation to different types of textile machines that are run over one after the other, but which works more reliably, is more flexible, and yet requires very little construction required.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved by claim 1. Advantageous further developments result from the subclaims.

Mit der erfindungsgemäßen translatorischen Bewegung des unteren Schlauchteils läßt sich die geforderte Breitenverstellung mit geringstmöglichem Bewegungsaufwand zur Verfügung stellen. Besonders günstig ist es, daß wahlweise die Düsen durch die Parallelogrammführung in beiden Enstellungen auf gleicher Höhe bleiben oder eine Höhenanpassung in dem gewünschten Ausmaß vorgenommen wird. Hierzu ist es lediglich erforderlich, den Stellbereich des Parallelogramms entsprechend zu wählen. Eine Verstellung aus der senkrechten Lage nach innen ergibt eine zunächst praktisch vernachlässigbare, dann zunehmende Anhebung der Düsen an dem unteren Schlauchteil, die bei symmetrischer Parallelogrammführung der gleichen Anhebung entspricht, wenn das Parallelogramm nach außen geführt wird.With the translatory movement of the lower tube part according to the invention, the required width adjustment can be made available with the least possible movement effort. It is particularly favorable that the nozzles either remain at the same height in both settings due to the parallelogram guidance or that the height is adjusted to the desired extent. It is only necessary to select the setting range of the parallelogram accordingly. An adjustment from the vertical position inwards results in a practically negligible, then increasing increase in the nozzles on the lower hose part, which corresponds to the same increase in symmetrical parallelogram guidance when the parallelogram is guided outwards.

Das Ausmaß, um welches sich die Düsen an dem unteren Schlauchteil bewegen, läßt sich durch die Geometrie der Parallelogrammführung in weiten Bereichen an die Erfordernisse anpassen.The extent to which the nozzles move on the lower tube part can be adapted to the requirements in wide ranges by the geometry of the parallelogram guide.

Besonders günstig ist es auch, daß die Parallelogrammführung für eine Mehrzahl von üblicherweise parallel zueinander geführten Schläuchen gemeinsam anwendbar ist, was gegenüber der bekannten Dreh-Verschwenkbarkeit um die vertikale Achse erhebliche Vorteile hinsichtlich des Konstruktionsaufwandes bietet. Hier ist darauf zu verweisen, daß Reinigungsvorrichtungen üblicherweise eine Mehrzahl von Blas- und Saugschläuchen aufweisen.It is also particularly expedient that the parallelogram guide can be used jointly for a plurality of hoses which are usually guided parallel to one another, which offers considerable advantages in terms of the construction effort compared to the known pivotability about the vertical axis. It should be pointed out here that cleaning devices usually have a plurality of blow and suction hoses.

Der Betätigungsmechanismus für die Parallelogrammführung, mit dem die Verstellung in mindestens zwei Stellungen erfolgt, kann günstigerweise als Druckzylinder ausgebildet sein, der zwischen zwei diagonal einander gegenüberliegenden Befestigungspunkten an dem oberen bzw. dem unteren Schlauchteil gelagert ist. Hierdurch wird auf besonders einfache Weise eine Verstellung des Parallelogramms ermöglicht.The actuation mechanism for the parallelogram guide, with which the adjustment takes place in at least two positions, can advantageously be designed as a pressure cylinder, which is mounted between two diagonally opposite fastening points on the upper and the lower hose part. This enables the parallelogram to be adjusted in a particularly simple manner.

Die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung läßt sich mit einfachen Mitteln mit einer automatischen Verstellung der Reinigungsbreite versehen, indem nämlich beispielsweise an der Grenzstelle zwischen einer Ringspinnmaschinenreihe und einer Spulmaschinenreihe ein Betätigungsglied vorgesehen ist, das auf einen entsprechenden, an der Reinigungsvorrichtung angebrachten Fühler wirkt. Sobald die Reinigungsvorrichtung mit dem Fühler in den Bereich des Betätigungsglieds gerät, erfolgt eine Ansteuerung des Betätigungsmechanismus für die Parallelogrammführung, so daß die Saug- und/oder Blasschläuche in die gewünschte Stellung gebracht werden.The cleaning device according to the invention can be provided with simple means with an automatic adjustment of the cleaning width, namely by providing an actuator, for example, at the boundary point between a ring spinning machine row and a winding machine row, which acts on a corresponding sensor attached to the cleaning device. As soon as the cleaning device with the sensor gets into the area of the actuating element, the actuating mechanism for the parallelogram guide is actuated so that the suction and / or blowing hoses are brought into the desired position.

Weitere Vorteile, Einzelheiten und Merkmale der Erfindung sind in der nachstehenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert.Further advantages, details and features of the invention are explained in more detail in the following description of an embodiment of the invention with reference to the drawing.

  • Fig. 3 eine schematisierte Darstellung eines Teils der erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung gemäß Fig. 1, in einer Schnittansicht von oben, wobei die beiden Zustände der Reinigungsvorrichtung bei der Reinigung der Ringspinnmaschine und bei der Reinigung der Spulmaschine je dargestellt sind.
Show it:
  • Figure 1 is a schematic view of the lower part of a cleaning device according to the invention when driving over a ring spinning machine.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic view of the cleaning device according to FIG. 1 when passing over a winding machine; and
  • Fig. 3 is a schematic representation of part of the cleaning device according to the invention according to Fig. 1, in a sectional view from above, the two states of the cleaning device for cleaning the ring spinning machine and for cleaning the winding machine are each shown.

Von einer erfindungsgemäßen Reinigungsvorrichtung ist in Fig. 1 ein Schlauch 10 dargestellt, der zwei Teile aufweist, nämlich einen oberen Schlauchteil 12 und einen unteren Schlauchteil 14. Der obere Schlauchteil 12 ist mit dem Gebläse der nicht im einzelnen dargestellten Reinigungsvorrichtung verbunden, wobei die Abstützung der Reinigungsvorrichtung auf einer Fahrschiene oberhalb einer Ringspinnmaschine 16 erfolgt.A hose 10 of a cleaning device according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1, which has two parts, namely an upper hose part 12 and a lower hose part 14. The upper hose part 12 is connected to the blower of the cleaning device, not shown in detail, the support of the Cleaning device is carried out on a travel rail above a ring spinning machine 16.

Zwischen dem oberen und dem unteren Schlauchteil 12 und 14 ist eine Parallelogrammführung 18 vorgesehen, die ein einseitiges Verschwenken des unteren Schlauchteils 14 gegenüber dem oberen Schlauchteil 12 und damit gleichzeitig gegenüber der Ringspinnmaschine 16 ermöglicht. Die Parallelogrammführung 18 weist zwei Führungsstangen 20 und 22 auf, die sich je von dem oberen Schlauchteil 12 zum unteren Schlauchteil 14 erstrecken und dort an Lagern 24, 26, 28 und 30 je beweglich gelagert sind. Im Beispielsfalle sind die Führungsstangen 20 und 22 je gleich lang, so daß eine exakte Parallelführung gewährleistet ist.A parallelogram guide 18 is provided between the upper and lower hose parts 12 and 14, which enables the lower hose part 14 to be pivoted on one side with respect to the upper hose part 12 and thus simultaneously with respect to the ring spinning machine 16. The parallelogram guide 18 has two guide rods 20 and 22 which each extend from the upper hose part 12 to the lower hose part 14 and are each movably mounted there on bearings 24, 26, 28 and 30. In the example, the guide rods 20 and 22 are each of the same length, so that an exact parallel guidance is guaranteed.

Zwischen den diagonal einander gegenüberliegenden Lagern 26 und 28 erstreckt sich ein Druckzylinder 32, der mit einem Druckmedium in an sich bekannter Weise betätigbar ist, so daß durch die Längenänderung des Druckzylinders 32 zugleich eine Verstellung der Parallelogrammführung 18 erfolgt. Bei Ausdehnung des Druckzylinders 32 wird der untere Schlauchteil 14 näher zur Ringspinnmaschine 16 bewegt, beim Zusammenziehen des Druckzylinders 32 wird der untere Schlauchteil 14 von der Ringspinnmaschine 16 bewegt.Extending between the diagonally opposite bearings 26 and 28 is a printing cylinder 32 which can be actuated with a printing medium in a manner known per se, so that the parallelogram guide 18 is also adjusted by changing the length of the printing cylinder 32. When the pressure cylinder 32 is expanded, the lower tube part 14 is moved closer to the ring spinning machine 16, when the pressure cylinder 32 is pulled together, the lower tube part 14 is moved by the ring spinning machine 16.

Die Reinigung der Ringspinnmaschine 16 erfolgt über eine Vielzahl von Düsen und Saugmundstücken, wobei eine Düse 34 in Fig. 1 dargestellt ist, die an dem unteren Schlauchteil 14 angebracht ist und einen zu reinigenden Bereich 36 der Ringspinnmaschine 16 anbläst.The ring spinning machine 16 is cleaned via a large number of nozzles and suction mouthpieces, a nozzle 34 being shown in FIG. 1, which is attached to the lower hose part 14 and blows on an area 36 of the ring spinning machine 16 to be cleaned.

Zum luftdichten Anschluß des unteren Schlauchteils 14 an dem oberen Schlauchteil 12 ist eine in Fig. 1 nicht dargestellte Manschette oder ein hochflexibler Schlauch vorgesehen, die bzw. der sowohl eine seitliche Bewegung als auch eine gewisse Längenänderung erlaubt und beispielsweise als Faltenbalg ausgebildet sein kann.For the airtight connection of the lower hose part 14 to the upper hose part 12, a sleeve or a highly flexible hose (not shown in FIG. 1) is provided, which allows both lateral movement and a certain change in length and can be designed, for example, as a bellows.

In der Darstellung gemäß Fig 2. entsprechen gleiche Bezugszeichen gleichen Teilen wie in Fig. 1 und bedürfen dementsprechend keiner weiteren Erläuterung.In the illustration according to FIG. 2, the same reference numerals correspond to the same parts as in FIG. 1 and accordingly do not require any further explanation.

In dem in Fig. 2 dargestellten Zustand überfährt die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung eine Spulmaschine 38, die eine größere Baubreite als die Ringmaschinen 16 gemäß Fig. 1 aufweist. Dementsprechend befindet sich die Parallelogrammführung 18 in einer anderen Stellung, und der Druckzylinder 32 weist eine geringere Länge auf. In dem in Fig. 2 dargestellten Zustand sind Achsen 40 und 42 der Schlauchteile 12 und 14 koaxial zueinander. Dementsprechend sind die Lager 26 und 24 bzw. 30 und 28 exakt übereinander angeordnet, und die Parallelogrammführung 18 spannt ein Rechteck auf, während in der Stellung gemäß Fig. 1 durch die Parallelogrammführung ein Trapez gebildet wird. In der Koaxialstellung der Achsen 40 und 42 ist der Strömungswiderstand des Schlauchs 10 am geringsten, so daß diese Stellung für die größte gewünschte Saug- bzw. Blasleistung verwendet werden sollte.In the state shown in FIG. 2, the cleaning device according to the invention runs over a winding machine 38 which has a greater overall width than the ring machines 16 according to FIG. 1. Accordingly, the parallelogram guide 18 is in a different position and the pressure cylinder 32 has a shorter length. In the state shown in FIG. 2, axes 40 and 42 of the hose parts 12 and 14 are coaxial with one another. Accordingly, the bearings 26 and 24 or 30 and 28 are arranged exactly one above the other, and the parallelogram guide 18 spans a rectangle, while in the position according to FIG. 1 a trapezoid is formed by the parallelogram guide. In the coaxial position of the axes 40 and 42, the flow resistance of the hose 10 is the lowest, so that this position should be used for the greatest desired suction or blowing power.

Erfindungsgemäß wird mit der gleichen Düse 34 ein entsprechender Bereich 36 der Spulmaschine 38 beaufschlagt und somit gereinigt.According to the invention, the same nozzle 34 is applied to a corresponding area 36 of the winding machine 38 and thus cleaned.

In einer Abwandlung des dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels ist es vorgesehen, mit der Verstellung des unteren Schlauchteils 14 über die Parallelogrammführung 18 eine Verstellung der Düse 34 zu koppeln, um eine noch bessere Anpassung an die gewünschte Reinigungswirkung der Spulmaschine 38 zu erzielen.In a modification of the exemplary embodiment shown, provision is made to couple an adjustment of the nozzle 34 to the adjustment of the lower hose part 14 via the parallelogram guide 18 in order to achieve an even better adaptation to the desired cleaning action of the winding machine 38.

Unter ganz bestimmten Umständen kann es günstig sein, die Parallelogrammführung durch eine translatorische Führung des unteren Schlauchteils 14 gegenüber dem oberen Schlauchteil 12 zu ersetzen, wobei eine Höhenänderung der Düse 34, bezogen auf den oberen Schlauchteil 12, nicht erfolgt.Under very specific circumstances, it may be expedient to replace the parallelogram guide with a translatory guide of the lower hose part 14 with respect to the upper hose part 12, the nozzle 34 not changing in height with respect to the upper hose part 12.

In der Darstellung gemäß Fig. 3 ist die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung in zwei Zuständen dargestellt, nämlich in der Reinigungsstellung für die Spulmaschine 38 sowie in der Reinigungsstellung für die Ringspinnmaschine 16. Über ein Betätigungsglied 44, auf das ein entsprechend ausgebildeter Fühler an der Reinigungsvorrichtung anspricht, erfolgt eine Umschaltung von der engeren Reinigungsstellung für die Ringspinnmaschine 16 in die breitere Reinigungsstellung für die Spulmaschine 38. Wie aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich ist, bewirkt die Parallelogrammführung 18 eine Verstellung einer Mehrzahl von Schläuchen in einem Zuge, wobei in Fig. 3 ein Saugschlauch 46 und ein Blasschlauch 48 miteinander mechanisch verbunden sind und über die Parallelogrammführung 18 gemeinsam bewegt werden.3, the cleaning device according to the invention is shown in two states, namely in the cleaning position for the winding machine 38 and in the cleaning position for the ring spinning machine 16. Via an actuator 44, to which a correspondingly designed sensor on the cleaning device responds a changeover from the narrower cleaning position for the ring spinning machine 16 into the wider cleaning position for the winding machine 38. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the parallelogram guide 18 causes a plurality of hoses to be adjusted in one go, with a suction hose 46 and a blow hose 48 are mechanically connected to one another and are moved together via the parallelogram guide 18.

Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, die erfindungsgemäße Reinigungsvorrichtung in mehr als zwei Stellungen zu verschwenken, und insbesondere in eine Stellung, in welcher die Achse 42 des unteren Schlauchteils 14 außerhalb der Achse 40 des oberen Schlauchteils 40 zu liegen kommt. Gewünschtenfalls kann die koaxiale Stellung der Achsen 40 und 42 auch in einem Übergangsbereich zwischen den beiden Endstellungen, in denen die Reinigung unterschiedlicher Textilmaschinen bewirkt wird, vorgesehen sein.Of course, it is also possible to pivot the cleaning device according to the invention in more than two positions, and in particular in a position in which the axis 42 of the lower hose part 14 comes to lie outside the axis 40 of the upper hose part 40. If desired, the coaxial position of the axes 40 and 42 can also be provided in a transition area between the two end positions, in which the cleaning of different textile machines is effected.
