Definitions

  • the invention relates to an apparatus for the pressing and tying of bumps, comprising means for pressing the bumps taken from a collector can, means for tying the bumps and means for handling the pressed and tied bumps.
  • the invention therefore relates to an apparatus which enables high outputs to be achieved by optimizing the use of the pressing and packing apparatus.
  • an apparatus of the above-mentioned type comprising a first station for the extraction of the material from the can and a second station for the pressing and tying of the bump, means of transferring the bump being provided to transfer the material from said first extraction station to said second pressing and tying station.
  • a partial pre-pressing of the material may also be carried out.
  • the bumps are pressed and tied and only subsequently wrapped in plastic tape.
  • one station extracts the coiled sliver from the can, presses it and ties the bump thus obtained.
  • the tied bump is discharged and then, in a subsequent phase, wrapped in plastic tape.
  • the wrapping of the bump with the plastic film when the bump has already been tied up is hampered by the underlying ties sticking out and is never satisfactory. Besides, the enveloping film can easily become torn during subsequent handling of the bump.
  • a further aim of the invention is therefore to produce an apparatus for pressing and tying bumps of textile material which allows the pressed bump to be optionally wrapped in protective plastic film underneath the ties. This aim is easily achievable with a further improvement of the abovementioned apparatus.
  • a station for extraction of the material from the collecting can and a separate and subsequent station for pressing and tying it is possible to arrange for a said extraction station to be combined with means for arranging a wrapping film around the material extracted from the collecting can. In this way the wrapping of the material takes place before the tying.
  • further members can be provided to complete the wrapping of the pressed bump in the wrapping film, for example tubular-shaped members positioned with respect to the pressing surfaces in such a way as to encircle the tied bump and swathe it with the wrapping film before the definitive tying takes place.
  • the invention also relates to a method of automatically pressing and packing a bump of textile material or similar product, comprising the phases of: extracting the material from the collecting can, compressing the material and wrapping it in a packing film; and tying the bump of pressed and wrapped material in said packing film.
  • the phases of extraction and wrapping can take place in a first station and the pressing and tying in a subsequent station. It is also possible to arrange for a pre-pressing of the material to be performed in the first station, so that the material reaches the pressing and tying station already partly pressed.
  • the apparatus is linked to two machines for dispensing roving, diagrammatically indicated by 1 and equipped with coilers 3 for distributing the roving in corresponding cans V1, V2, V3, V4 arranged on rotating platforms 5.
  • a transverse table 7 In front of the rotating platforms 5 runs a transverse table 7 a certain height off the floor P, underneath which a shuttle or carriage 9 runs up and down alternately taking can V2 or can V4 from one or other of the rotating platforms 5 and transporting it to a station where the wound roving is extracted from the can, indicated as a whole by 11.
  • the extraction station 11 is arranged centrally between the two rotating platforms 5 and comprises a pushing member 13 (Fig 2) arranged beneath the level of the floor P, at the point where the carriage 9 comes, bearing its can indicated by V5 in Fig 2, when the material that has been accumulated in it is to be extracted for subsequent pressing and packing.
  • the pushing member 13, which is the only part of the apparatus to be arranged beneath the level of the floor P, consists in the embodiment shown of a cylinder-and-piston system which interacts with a second cylinder-and-piston system 15 carried by the frame 14 of the apparatus, arranged coaxially with and above said pushing member 13 and carrying a disk 15A.
  • the extraction station 11 further comprises a carriage 21 equipped with gripping means 23 for laterally grasping the packet of roving material extracted from the can V5 and partly pressed between the cylinder-and-piston systems 13, 15, and transferring said material to the pressing and tying station described below.
  • the carriage 21 moves on horizontal rails 25 running between the extraction station 11 and the subsequent pressing and tying station which is indicated as a whole by 27.
  • the carriage 21 moves between the table 17 and a table 29 parallel to it and above it, the two tables 17, 29 defining a passage for the bump which comes from the extraction station 11 and is directed on to the pressing and tying station 27.
  • the pressing and tying station 27 comprises a lower pressing surface 31 and an upper pressing surface 33, suitably grooved, in a manner known per se, to enable a tying machine - diagrammatically indicated by 35, 37 in Fig 3 and omitted for the sake of clarity in Fig 2 - to tie the bump as it is held and pressed between said two pressing surfaces.
  • the lower pressing surface 31 is carried by the rod of a cylinder-and-piston actuator 39 connected to a motor reducer 41 (Fig 3) which, via a coupling 43, can make the lower pressing surface 31 rotate about the axis of a cylinder-and-piston actuator 39.
  • the upper pressing surface 33 is mounted idle on the rod of a corresponding cylinder-and-piston actuator 45 so that it can be drawn in rotation by friction with the bump pressed between the two pressing surfaces when the lower pressing surface 31 is made to rotate by the motor reducer 41.
  • a carriage 49 runs with gripping means 51 to take the pressed and tied bump from the pressing and tying station 27 and transport it to a position on a conveyor belt 53 running crosswise with respect to the axis of the apparatus.
  • B indicates the position in which the pressed and tied bump is deposited on the conveyor belt 53 for subsequent removal from the apparatus in the direction of the arrow f53.
  • the conveyor belt 53 extends as far as a point underneath means 55 of withdrawing the bumps from the conveyor belt 53.
  • Said means comprises a trolley 57 which is able to move in the directions indicated by the double arrow f57 (Fig 1), parallel to the pressing and tying apparatus along two horizontal guide rails 59 shown in Figs 1 and 3 and omitted from Fig 2 for the sake of clarity in the drawing.
  • a slide 61 On the trolley 57 is a slide 61 which is able to move in the direction of the double arrow f61, transversely with respect to the direction of movement of the trolley 57 itself along running guides 63.
  • the slide 61 carries members 65 for gripping and lifting the bumps from the conveyor 53 and transporting said bumps to unload them onto a plurality of pallets or the like, indicated by 67 in Fig 1.
  • the movements of the trolley 57 and of the slide 61 are programmed so as to fill the pallets 67, which are regularly taken away and replaced.
  • the apparatus operates as follows.
  • the cans in positions V2 and V4 are alternately taken from their respective rotating platforms 5 and placed on the shuttle 9 which transports one can at a time into the station 11 and onto the pushing member 13 in the position V5.
  • the disk 15A is lowered toward the upper aperture of the can in position V5 and the pusher 13 and the cylinder-and-piston system 15 then move up to extract the material from the can V5, and bring it over the table 17 through the aperture 19.
  • the reciprocal distance between said members is reduced so that in addition to extracting the material from the can, they also partly compress it.
  • the carriage 21 advances in the direction of f21 (Figs 1 and 2), laterally grasps the partially pressed material and transports it to the pressing station 27.
  • the transfer takes place with the material being maintained in its partly pressed state between the tables 17, 19 which keep the material from re-expanding before it comes between the upper and lower pressing surfaces 33, 31 of the pressing station 27.
  • the pressing surfaces 31, 33 are moved toward each other to compress the material.
  • the lower pressing surface 31 is made to rotate through predetermined angles in such a way as to enable the tying machine 35, 37 (known per se) to tie the bump around three or four diameters.
  • the upper pressing surface 33 can be removed and the tied bump is taken by the gripping means 51 on the carriage 49 and these deposit said bump on the conveyor belt 53. From here the bump is conveyed to beneath the withdrawing means 55 and is placed on the corresponding pallet 67.
  • Figs 4 to 11 show an improved embodiment of the apparatus of Figs 1 to 3, which is capable of performing not only the pressing and tying but also, between said two operations, the wrapping of the bumps.
  • Identical or corresponding parts of the two apparatuses of Figs 1-3 and of Figs 4-11 are indicated by the same reference numerals.
  • Figs 7 to 11 show diagrammatically only certain parts of the apparatus in successive working phases in order to clarify its operation.
  • the modified version of the apparatus of Fig 4 has a roll R of tape of plastic film in which to wrap the bump.
  • the tape of film N is unrolled from the roll R and drawn back by a plurality of rollers 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76 (Fig 6) in such a way that the forward end of said tape comes underneath the table 17 in the vicinity of the aperture 19 through which the material extracted from the can V5 is passed.
  • the free edge of the tape N is grasped by the gripping members (not shown in Fig 3 and sketched in at 78 in Figs 7 and 8, and known per se) and drawn in the direction of f78 (Fig 7) so as to be stretched over the mouth of the can V5 which is in position for the material to be extracted.
  • the tape N is then wrapped around the bump that is to be packed in the manner described below in such a way that tying takes place after wrapping.
  • the pressing station 27 there are two tubular members 81, 83 shown in detail in Fig 6 in cross-section through their longitudinal axis, arranged coaxially with the pressing surfaces 31 and 33 respectively.
  • the lower tubular member 81 is guided by means of rings 84 along guide rods 85 running parrallel to the axis of the actuator 39, and can thus move (by means of actuators, not shown) vertically upwards from the position of Fig 6 in the direction of f81.
  • the tubular member 81 also has two diametrically opposed apertures parallel to its axis for the purposes described below, diagrammatically indicated by 87.
  • the upper tubular member 83 like the lower tubular member 81, is guided by means of rings 89 along guide rods 90 and has two diametrically opposed apertures extending parallel to its axis, diagrammatically indicated by 91.
  • the tubular members 81, 83 can be made as a single piece or in two parts joined together, for example around a plane passing through the axis. As will be seen more clearly later, they serve to encircle the bump after it has been pressed so as to swathe it with the portion of plastic film in which it becomes wrapped, before it is tied.
  • Figs 7 to 11 show in highly diagrammatic form the work phases from extraction of the material from the can V5 to the tying of the pressed bump in the pressing station 27.
  • the can V5 is visible in the extraction station 11 underneath the cylinder-and-piston system 15.
  • the tape N whose free end is held by the gripping members 78 has been unwound far enough to cover the mouth of the can V5.
  • the disk 15A of the cylinder-and-piston system 15 is lowered towards the can V5.
  • the pushing member 13 pushes up the material contained in the can V5 and the disk 15A is moved up until the material M reaches the position shown in Fig. 8, in which said material becomes partly pressed to a height which fits between the two tables 17 and 29.
  • a cutting means for example a hot wire or a blade, diagrammatically indicated by 95 in Fig 8, is now used to cut the tape N.
  • the carriage 21 advances in the direction of f21 (Fig 8) until the gripping means 23 laterally grasp the material M.
  • the further advance of the carriage 21 in the direction of f21 carries the partly pressed material M from the extraction station 11 to the pressing and tying station 27, where the material M assumes the position of Fig 9.
  • the horizontal tables 17, 29 stop the partly pressed material M from re-expanding and the lower horizontal table 17 also produces a partial wrapping of the tape N around the material M.
  • the pressing surfaces 31, 33 then perform the pressing of the bump B as shown in Fig. 10.
  • the length of tape N wrapped around the bump in the packing phase is partly wrapped around the packet of roving of the bump, but the edges corresponding to the lateral sides of the tape remain free, protruding perpendicularly to the plane of the figure.
  • two tubular members 81, 83 are used, which are under the control of corresponding actuators (not shown) are moved in the directions of the arrows f81 and f83 towards each other until one penetrates the other, this partial penetration being possible because of the difference between the internal diameter of the lower tubular member 81 and the external diameter of the upper tubular member 83.
  • the position assumed is shown in Fig 11.
