Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for applying tension to opposite lateral ends of a sheet of warp yarns in a weaving loom.
- the tension of warp yarns arranged in a array or a sheet in a weaving loom differs between the center and the opposite lateral ends of the sheet as determined along the sheet width, i.e. the warp yarn tension is lower toward the lateral ends of the sheet.
- Such loser tension causes poor separation of warp yarns in forming a shed opening by separated upper and lower arrays of warp yarns.
- a device which is designed to increase the tension of warp yarns at the lateral ends of warp yarn sheet is disclosed e.g. in JP 52-110967, JP 58-169545 and JP 59-43150.
- the device according JP 58-169545 uses a pair of tensioning members which are positioned in parallel to each other at the lateral ends of warp yarn sheet so as to hold the warp yarns therebetween and which are disposed extending at such an angle with respect to a line along the widthwise direction of the warp yarn sheet that the outer end of each of the tensioning members is positioned closer to cloth fell than the inner end thereof.
- substantially constant tension can be applied to the lateral ends of warp yarn sheet. If the tension is increased for improvement in separation of warp yarn into upper and lower sheets, however, the warp yarns at the lateral ends will be constantly subjected to a high tension, which may cause the warp yarns to break.
- the time at which tension is applied depends solely on a predetermined shedding curve, with the result that there is no freedom of adjusting the time of tension application.
- the warp yarn tension differs between the time of shed opening and shed closing of the warp yarn sheet because each shed opens and closes at a different time, compared to the other.
- the rate of difference is higher at the lateral ends of the sheet, where the basic tension is lower.
- the droppers at the lateral ends of the warp yarn sheet will vibrate and possibly even jump more, compared to droppers in the more central parts of the warp yarn sheet.
- Such increased vibration may cause the warp yarns at the lateral part to be fluffered and even to break and/or the selvage to become irregular.
- the tensioning member of the device is operated to press on the opposite lateral ends of warp yarn sheet for each weft picking at a time which is selectably adjusted by the tension application time adjusting means according to the invention.
- the warp yarns at the lateral ends can be tensioned at the right time for weft picking.
- timed application of tension to warp yarns in accordance with lateral end of warp yarns the time of weft picking provides for smooth separation of warp yarns at the lateral ends, thereby to forming a shed opening without a delay. As a result, failure in weft picking due to inadequate shed opening is prevented successfully.
- reducing the difference in tention in the warp thread in the open and the closed shed position is achieved by adjusting the time of pressing on the lateral ends of the warp yarn sheet according to the time of the shed is cosing of the warp yarn sheet. This measure reduces vibration of droppers and fluffering and consequently warp yarn breaks considerably.
- the shed is closing provides for increasing the tension of the lateral part of the warp yarn sheet.
- the difference in tension of the lateral part of the warp yarn sheet is limited between the open shed and the closed shed position of the warp sheet in the weaving cylcle.
- the time at which the tensioning member is operated to apply tension to opposite lateral ends of warp yarn sheet can be adjusted as desired in accordance with the time of weft picking or the time of closing and opening the warp yarn shed.
- timed application of tension to warp yarns in accordance with the time of picking can make possible smooth separation of warp yarns at the lateral ends thereby to form a shed opening without a delay.
- failure in weft picking due to inadequate shed opening can be prevented successfully.
- Timed application of tension to warp yarns in accordance with the closing the shed basically reduces the differences of yarn tention in the weaving cycle. difference make possible smooth separation of warp yarns at the lateral ends thereby to form a shed opening without a delay. As a result, failure in weft picking due to inadequate shed opening can be prevented successfully.
- the device for tensioning the warp yarns allows for tension by operation of the tensioning member to apply tension to opposite lateral ends of warp yarn sheet and can be adjusted as necessary and required in accordance with the time of weft picking.
- timed application of tension to warp yarns provide for smooth separation of warp yarns at the lateral ends, thereby forming a shed opening without a delay.
- failure in weft picking due to inadequate shed opening can be prevented successfully.
- Fig. 1 to 9 show a first embodiment and Fig. 1A to 4A show another embodiment of the invention and details thereof;
- Fig. 1 is a schematic side view showing an embodiment of the device according to the present invention as applied to a jet loom
- warp yarns T unwound from a warp beam 19 are moved over a back roller 1 and a easing roller 2 and further through respective warp break detectors 3 and healds 4, and then woven by a reed 5 into a fabric W which is wound b ⁇ a take-up roll 6.
- References W1 designates a cloth fell and N depicts a main picking nozzle which is swingable together with the reed 5.
- the easing roller 2 is supported by and between a pair of easing levers 7A und 7B which are swingable about pivot shafts 8a and 8b, respectively.
- the easing levers 7A, 7B have connected thereto at the distal ends thereof a pair of rods 9A, 9B, which are in turn connected to crank mechanism (not shown).
- the crank mechanism operates in synchronism with the rotation of the loom so that the rods 9A, 9B make one stroke of reciprocating motion for one complete rotation of the loom.
- Support brackets 10A, 10B are fixed to the proximal ends of the respective easing levers 7A, 7B, and tensioning rollers 11A, 11B are cantilevered at one ends thereof to the support brackets 10A, 10B via connectors 12A, 12B.
- the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B extend inward of the warp yarn sheet T and positioned at an angle with respect to a plane formed by warp yarn sheet T1 between the back roller 1 and easing roller 2.
- the support brackets 10A, 10B have formed therein elongated holes 10a through which bolts 13A, 13B extend to be screwed into the connectors 12A, 12B.
- the connectors 12A, 12B are detachably fixed to the support brackets 10A, 10B by means of the bolts 13A, 13B.
- the elongated hole 10a extends in a direction across the warp yarn sheet T1 between the back roller 1 and easing roller 2, thus permitting the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B to be positioned adjustably along the hole 10a, hence in a direction across the warp yarn sheet T1.
- the sketches (a, (b) and (c) of Fig. 4 show the tensioning roller 11A which is positioned on the side adjacent to the main weft picking nozzle N.
- the tensioning roller 11A is swingable integrally together with the easing roller 2 about the pivotal shaft 8A.
- the same is true of the other tensioning roller 11B provided on the opposite side of the loom.
- the curved lines C1, C2 show shedding curves of two alternating upper and lower arrays of warp yarns.
- the curved line C3 shows a swing curve of the easing roller 2, and the curved line D4 a swing curve of the tensioning roller 11A, respectively.
- Abscissa X for the swing curve C4 represents the position where the tensioning roller 11A is placed just in contact with the warp yarn sheet T1, and the swing curve C4 represents the angle to which the tensioning roller 11A has swung from the above position X.
- Abscissa X for the swing curve C4 represents the position where the tensioning roller 11A is placed just in contact with the warp yarn sheet T1
- the swing curve C4 represents the angle to which the tensioning roller 11A has swung from the above position X.
- the area which is above the abscissa X shows the area in which the tensioning roller 11A is kept in contact with the warp yarn sheet T1
- the area below the abscissa X shows the area in which the roller is clear of the warp yarn sheet.
- the sketch (a) of Fig. 4 shows the position of the easing roller 2 and the tensioning roller 11A, where the warp yarn shed is closed, and the sketsch (c) of the same figure shows the position of the easing roller 2 and the tensioning roller 11A, where the warp yarn shed is wide open.
- the sketch (b) of Fig. 4 shows the position where the tensioning roller 11A has been just moved into, or it is just about to move away from, contact engagement with the warp yarn sheet T1.
- position of the tensioning roller 11A between the condition (a) and (b) of Fig. 4 correspond to the curved line C4 in the area below the abscissa X in Fig.
- a basic difference of the embodiments of the invention displayed in Fig. 1A, 2A, 3A and 4A (a), (b) and (c) is that the tensioning rollers 11A is moving the warp yarn sheet T away from the back roller 1 and the easing roller 2 and not against back roller 1 and easing roller 2 when the warp yarn sheet must be tensioned
- the curved line C5 indicates the distrubution of warp yarn tension without use of the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B, as measured in the widthwise direction of the warp yarn sheet when the shed is open.
- the curved line C6 shows the distribution of warp yarn tension when tension is applied by the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B. It is apparent from the diagram that smoothness in separation of warp yarns into upper and lower sheets at the lateral ends T L and T R can be improved by increasing the tension at such ends of the warp yarn sheet.
- the time at which the tension is applied to the ends T L and T R by the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B can be adjusted so as to form the shed opening at the right time for weft picking. This is accomplished by adjusting the mounting position of the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B along the elongated holes 10a in the support brackets 10A, 10B with respect to the easing levers 7A, 7B in accordance with the weft picking time.
- the warp yarn sheet at its lateral ends T L and T R will not be subjected constantly to high tension, there is no fear of warp yarn break due to constant application of high tension, as was ovserved in pior art device.
- the adjustment of the mounting position of the tensioning rollers 11A, 11B can be performed easily merely by moving the connectors 12A, 12B along the holes 10a in the support brackets 10A, 10B with the bolts 13A, 13B loosened. This adjustment will displace the curved line C4 in Fig. 5 in upward or downward direction with reference to the abscissa X.
- an air cylinder 14 having a movable rod at the distal end of which is mounted a tensioning member 14a.
- the tensioning member 14a is moved by the air cylinder 14 to press on a lateral end of warp yarn sheet T1 between the back roller 1 and easing roller 2.
- Operation of the air cylinder 14 is controlled by an electromagnetically operated valve (not shown) which is operable to be energized or deenergized at controlled times in response to the time of each weft picking.
- an electromagnetically operated valve (not shown) which is operable to be energized or deenergized at controlled times in response to the time of each weft picking.
- FIG. 8 which is applied to a weaving loom having no back roller, there is porvided an air cylinder 14 carrying a tensioning menber 14a which is movable to press on a lateral end of warp yarn sheet T between the easing roller 2 and warp stop bar 15.
- the air cylinder 14 may be substituted with any suitable means such as electromagnetic solenoid.
- a lever 16 swingably supported by a pivotal shaft 20 and having at one end thereof a tensioning member 16a which is engageable with a lateral end of warp yarn sheet.
- the lever 16 is connected at the other end thereof via a rod 18 to a crank disk 17 which is in turn coupled to a drive of the loom.
- the end of the rod 18 remote from its connection with the lever 16 is adjustably connected to the crank disk 17 through an elongated hole 17 formed in the disk. Adjustment of the connecting position of the rod 18 to the crank disk 17 can permit timed application of tension by the tensioning member 16a to the lateral end of warp yarn sheet T.
- the time at which the tensioning member is operated to apply tension to opposite lateral ends of warp yarn sheet can be adjusted as desired in accordance with the time of weft picking.
- timed application of tension to warp yarns can make possible smooth separation of warp yarns at the lateral ends thereby to form a shed opening without a delay.
- failure in weft picking due to inadequate shed opening can be prevented successfully.
- Tensioning rollers 11A, 11B Tensioning time adjusting means including elongated holes 10a, connectors 12A, 12B and bolts 13A, 13B; warp yarn sheet T; Lateral ends of warp yarn sheet T L , T R .
- the device (9A,7A,10a,10b,11A) for tensioning the warp yarns (T) allows for tension by operation of the tensioning members (11A,11B) to apply tension to opposite lateral ends of warp yarn sheet and can be adjusted as necessary and required in accordance with the time of weft picking and/or the time of shed closing.
- timed application of tension to warp yarns at the time of picking provides for smooth separation of warp yarns at the lateral ends, thereby forming a shed opening without a delay.
- failure in weft picking due to inadequate and improper shed opening can be prevented successfully.
