Definitions

  • the invention relates to a thread broaching device of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1 and a shielding surface according to independent claim 16.
  • a thread supplier When a thread is fed from a supply spool to a consumer, for example a weaving machine or a knitting machine, a thread supplier is used to eliminate changes in the thread tension and to offer the thread to the consumer under optimal conditions. Thanks to the thread feeder, the processing speed could be increased extraordinarily without increasing the strength of the thread.
  • the thread supplier for example a thread storage and delivery device, is aligned with its axis to the entry point of the thread into the consumer, for example into the compartment of the weaving machine, in order to ensure the least possible deflection in the thread path to the consumer.
  • One or more thread supply bobbins from which the thread feeder pulls out cannot normally be aligned with the axis of the thread feeder then defined.
  • a thread braking device is provided on the feed side of the thread supplier.
  • a shielding surface which is either a flat plate or a spherical cap, is fixedly arranged on the thread braking device. The shielding surface should be perpendicular to the direction of the thread in order to shield with as large an area as possible.
  • the thread braking device must be inclined relative to the axis of the thread supplier.
  • this leads to an undesired deflection of the thread between the thread braking device and the thread supplier, ie at a point in the thread path before which the braking device generates a tension in the thread.
  • this leads to an increase in tension increases and in particular tension peaks which arise from the unwinding from the supply reel. This results in the risk of thread breaks.
  • At least one thread opening has to be arranged stationary in the way from the supply spool to the consumer for thread guidance. So that the thread that is alive during its run (balloon formation) and that sometimes sags when the speed changes, does not get caught on the obstacle formed by the thread opening, the thread opening is arranged in a large-area shielding surface that is transverse to the direction of the thread and prevents the thread from becoming caught.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a thread braking device or a shielding surface with which the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided become.
  • a thread braking device on the inlet side of a thread supplier the number of thread breaks is to be reduced.
  • a shielding surface for general thread guiding tasks an optimal shielding effect which prevents thread breaks in this area should always be guaranteed.
  • the thread braking device intended for the feed side of the thread supplier can be aligned with the axis of the thread supplier in such a way that there is no deflection downstream of the thread brake which increases the risk of thread breaks.
  • the risk of the thread jamming on the thread braking device is also reduced because the shielding surface can be adjusted in each case to the feed direction of the thread, so that the largest possible shielding surface becomes effective.
  • the shielding surface ensures an optimal shielding effect by its adjustment to the feed direction. In both cases it is important to be able to set the shielding surface at least approximately transversely to the feed direction, which is made possible by the direction setting means.
  • the shielding surface need not be oversized, as has often been the case up to now, because it can be individually adjusted to the thread feed direction. In the mostly cramped space conditions for thread processing, this is essential, as often - 4 -
  • the embodiment of claim 2 is advantageous because the form-fitting direction setting means ensure a precise setting of the shielding surface and precisely reproducible setting positions, while the non-positive means for fixing the shielding surface absorb unavoidable reaction forces from vibrations during operation.
  • the embodiment of claim 4 is also structurally expedient, in which the shielding surface also has part of the direction setting means.
  • the embodiment of claim 5 is expedient, in which the support of the base body is used for the correct setting of the shielding surface.
  • a particularly expedient, functionally reliable and easy-to-use embodiment is set out in claim 6.
  • the shielding surface is held securely in the slewing ring. Just by hiring rotational movement of the shielding surface to be carried out relative to the base body or of the base body relative to the shielding surface, the shielding surface is adapted to the respective inflow direction.
  • the embodiment according to claim 7 has proven particularly useful in practice because it covers all deviations between the thread passage axis in the thread brake and the direction of feed of the thread between 0 ° and 45 °. If the inlet direction deviates by more than 45 ° from the through axis, then the 45 ° inclined position of the shielding surface also ensures adequate shielding. For larger angular deviations, the inclined angles can also be larger and / or different from one another.
  • a ball or universal joint enables the transverse position of the shielding surface to be easily adapted to any feed direction of the thread.
  • the embodiment according to claim 9 is also expedient, in which the respective setting position of the shielding surface is produced by superimposing a pivoting movement of the shielding surface camouflaging the axis of rotation and a rotational movement of the base body about the pass axis.
  • the embodiment according to claim 10 is expedient, in which the base body can be rotated relative to the support.
  • the spherical cap provides a particularly good protection against curling.
  • a structurally simple and reliable embodiment is also apparent from claim 13.
  • the inclined position of the holder with respect to the through axis and the inclined position of the end side with respect to the shielding surface itself determine the maximum possible inclined position of the shielding surface, which can be adjusted by twisting.
  • the shielding surface is fixed using the lock nut.
  • the individual components are easy to manufacture. The changes can be made quickly and easily using simple tools. Vibrations do not change the selected setting of the shielding surface.
  • the embodiment of claim 14 is important with a view to treating the thread as gently as possible.
  • the incoming thread is essentially deflected at the inlet eyelet. He will only touch the other thread eyelet behind it during extreme transverse movements.
  • the measure according to claim 15 is important.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 shows a part of the thread braking device of FIG. 1 after an adjustment has been made, FIGS. 1 and 2 each representing limit settings,
  • a stationary shielding surface e.g. a thread braking device
  • FIG. 5 shows a further embodiment of a thread brake device in a side view
  • Fig. 6 is a diagram to illustrate geometric relationships in thread processing.
  • a thread brake device B can be seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, as is arranged on the feed side of a thread feeder F (FIG. 6) during thread processing.
  • a shielding surface A according to FIG. 4 can be integrated into the thread braking device B as in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
  • the consumer C is a loom that processes the thread Y as a weft.
  • the thread Y is stored on thread supply spools S provided in a holder H.
  • the threads of thread supply spools S belonging together are linked to one another so that a change from an empty supply spool S to a full one takes place automatically.
  • the thread feeder F is a thread storage and delivery device which pulls the thread Y from the supply spool S, stores it and, with a substantially low thread tension, offers it to the consumer C, who pulls the thread Y as required.
  • the thread feeder F is aligned with its axis approximately at the entry point on the consumer C, e.g. in single-color weaving with a thread feeder F.
  • each thread feeder F may be necessary to incline each thread feeder F with its axis.
