Abstract
Description
- The present invention concerns a weft yarn drawing gripper for shuttleless looms. As known, the "grippers" are members of shuttleless looms by means of which the weft yarns are picked up at one side of the loom and carried through the warp shed to the opposite side of the loom. The carrying gripper picks up the weft yarn from a weft feeding device at one end of the shed and carries it up to the middle of the shed, while the drawing gripper receives the weft yarn from the carrying gripper, at the middle of the shed, and draws it to the opposite end of the shed.
- There are known to be many types of grippers performing this function, all of which have undergone successive improvements differing one from the other as far as even slight constructive details and yet all aiming to improve, on one hand, the working life of the gripper, and on the other hand, yarn gripping and releasing. In fact, the transfer of weft yarn from the carrying gripper to the drawing gripper is one of the most delicate steps in the operation of the looms of this kind: at this stage either the impairing (or complete breakage) of the yarn or the unsuccessfull transfer of the weft yarn, which is not picked up from the carrying gripper by the drawing gripper, may take place.
- In an attempt to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks, grippers have been proposed in the art, whose clamping member consists of, rather than a stiff member, a flexible elastic member.
- EP-137 377 discloses, e.g., grippers for shuttleless looms wherein the clamping member consists of a flexible metallic lamina fixed at one end thereof to the gripper and freely oscillating at the other end. The same clamping member is also illustrated in EP-164 628.
- EP-207 533 discloses grippers for shuttleless looms wherein the clamping member consists of a wire spring fixed at both ends to the gripper, devices being also provided for controlling the tension thereof.
- In the various solutions proposed in the prior art for the grippers with clamping member consisting of a flexible elastic member - such as those above specifically described - said member alone exerts the gripping action on the yarn, cooperating with an opposed rigid wall of the gripper.
- In order to ensure a sufficiently strong gripping action, said flexible element must therefore be "stiff" enough so as to exert a stress, due to its deformation, sufficient for safely retaining the weft yarn. Moreover, it should not undergo an excessive deformation during the closing of the gripper, so as to avoid bearing on the rigid body of the gripper from which it projects, because it would of course loose, in that event, any kind of flexibility, to produce again the same operation mode of the previously known rigid grippers.
- The above shown grippers have overcome the mentioned drawbacks for several kinds of yarns. However, they give not yet satisfactory results in the case of parallel-filament or flat-section synthetic yarns, having a poor delamination resistance along the axis of the yarn, such as those often used in the manufacturing of mattress fabrics, propylene bottoms for moquettes, as well as for hante couture articles.
- With this kind of yarns, the action of the flexible elastic gripping elements of the known type is in fact still too "stiff" for safely retaining the whole yarn section. Thus, it still occurs with a certain frequency that the gripper carries to the opposite side of the fabric being woven only a few filaments of parallel-filament yarns, or a longitudinal portion of the flat-section yarn, which breaks along its axis.
- The object of the present invention is hence to provide a drawing gripper which eliminates the last aforesaid drawbacks, so as to ensure a perfect retaining of the weft yarn over the whole clamping surface, even in the case of a synthetic yarn of the aforementioned kind. This object is achieved by means of a drawing gripper for shuttleless looms - of the type comprising, on one hand, a fixed gripping hook, having a first metallic clamping surface and, on the other hand, a wedge fixedly connected to a movable slider and having a second metallic clamping surface, this latter being apt to cooperate with said first surface in order to clamp and retain the weft yarn - characterized in that, one of said clamping surfaces consists of a flexible metallic lamina whose clamping zone bears onto an elastic pad.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the drawing gripper according to the present invention will anyhow be more evident from the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment thereof, given by way of example and illustrated on the accompanying drawings, in which:
- fig. 1 is a side view of the gripper according to the invention;
- fig. 2 is a top view of the same; and
- figs. 3 and 4 show, in enlarged-scale views similar to fig. 1, the gripping end of the gripper, in yarn retaining and releasing position, respectively.
- The drawing gripper consists, in a known way, of an elongated body 1 (not wholly shown in the drawings), which terminates with a sharpened end, shaped as a
gripping hook 2, having a first metallic clamping surface. Aslider 4 is mounted on the body 1, sliding along the longitudinal axis of the gripper and bearing on itsend 4a a wedge provided with a second clamping surface. This latter being apt to cooperate with the first one clamping surface in order to clamp the weft yarn (not shown), to allow its drawing. - According to the invention, the wedge forming said second clamping surface consists of a
metallic lamina 5 and apad 6 onto which said lamina bears. The lamina 5 - oneend 5a thereof is fixed, to theslider 4, e.g. through ascrew 7 or the like - has a undulated configuration, comprising however aflat part 8, which is apt to contact theclamping surface 3, fitting therewith. To this purpose, thelamina 5 is provided with high elasticity and flexibility, to the extent that it is not able to clamp the weft yarn by itself, i.e. without the bearing action provided by theelastic pad 6. - The
pad 6 is made of a gum-like material, such as "Vulcollan" or the like, and has a configuration comprising, as above mantioned, a flat part apt to support theflat part 8 of thelamina 5. The material forming thepad 6 is sufficiently yielding to follow the movement of thelamina 5, without however allowing an excessive shape variation thereof. In the bearing zone, thelamina 5 may be provided with a window orslit 9, apt to further increase the flexibility of the lamina. - The
other end 5b of thelamina 5, opposed to the fixedend 5a, is bent at right angle and is guided, freely sliding, within a guide hole provided at theend 4a of theslider 4. In such a way, saidend 5b, together with theflat part 8, are elastically yielding in a direction perpendicular to theclamping surfaces - Morevore, the undulated shape of the
lamina 5 is such as to form, in correspondence of thetip 2a of thehook 2, a lead-inzone 10 apt to allow an easy insertion of the weft yarn between the clamping surfaces. - The wedge of the
slider 4 according to the present invention, comprising thepad 6 and thelamina 5 has therefore a large clamping surface - flexible and yielding longitudinally as well as perpendicularly to the axis of the gripper - apt to ensure a perfect retaining action of the yarn against theclamping surface 3 of the hook. The gripper of the present invention is then apt to ensure, on one hand, an easier and surer gripping of the weft yarn through the lead-inzone 10 and, on the other hand, a perfect retaining action of said weft yarn between theclamping surfaces - The invention has been disclosed with reference to a preferred embodiment thereof, but it should be understood that it is not in any way limited thereto. The scope of the invention comprises therefore possible variations and improvements, all within reach of a technician skilled in the art and all thus falling within the scope of the invention, as it is defined by the accompanying claims.
