Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for finding and gripping a ribbon, in particular by its end, in a textile machine.
  • the invention applies in particular, but not exclusively, to the technique of stretching, combing and preparation machines, in which a web is treated which is constituted by a plurality of individual ribbons of fibers arranged side by side and each from a support called a pot.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks by providing a method and a device which allow perfect and secure entry of the ribbon.
  • the invention relates to a method of finding and gripping a tape, in particular by its end, in a textile machine, the tape being placed in a support capable of rotating around its vertical axis. and having a free end hanging freely outside the support, characterized in that it consists in: rotating the support around its vertical axis until the free end of the ribbon occupies, with respect to this axis, a predetermined angular position; radially moving the free end of the ribbon away from said support in order to bring it into the zone of action of pinching fingers belonging to a movable gripping member for transferring said free end; and to control the closing of the pinching fingers in order to grasp the free end of the ribbon in the position separated from the latter.
  • the free end of the strip is brought into a predetermined position for its subsequent gripping by the fingers.
  • the detection of the predetermined angular position of the strip and / or the detection of the end of said relative movement are preferably carried out by common means of the optical type.
  • the invention relates to a device for implementing the above method, characterized in that it comprises: first detector means for detecting said predetermined angular position; spacer means for spreading the free end of the ribbon radially with respect to said support and bringing it into the zone of action of the pinching fingers; and means for closing the pinching fingers so as to grip the free end of the ribbon in the position spaced from the latter.
  • the spacer means are constituted by a suction nozzle which is oriented radially towards said support and is located at a short distance therefrom, the free end of the ribbon, for said predetermined angular position, being located between this nozzle and the support, and the nozzle being: ituted below the level of the gripping fingers.
  • the nozzle is associated with a radial stop against which the free end of the strip comes to bear in its separated position for its subsequent gripping by the pinching fingers; this stop is for example constituted by a filter and a rigid grid covering the nozzle.
  • the above device is advantageously supplemented by means for creating a relative displacement, in the longitudinal direction of the ribbon, between the pinching fingers and the free end of the ribbon situated in said predetermined angular position, before said spacing movement, for that the pinching fingers are brought to grip the ribbon at a predetermined distance from the end of the latter.
  • the detector means, the pinching fingers and the spacer means are arranged to move vertically along said support.
  • the detector means can be of the optical type and, in this case, they comprise: a light source oriented radially towards the support, a reflecting surface and a receiver of the reflected beam, these means being arranged for that the incident and / or reflected beam is interrupted by said free end when the latter reaches said predetermined angular position.
  • the reflecting surface is fixed, in which case it is carried by the same support as the light source and the receiver, or the reflecting surface is mobile and it is carried by the peripheral surface of the support, over an appropriate height, facing the light source and receiver.
  • the support has, above the level of the gripping fingers, an outer projecting rim so that the free end of the ribbon hangs being located at a distance from the peripheral surface of the support, the fixed reflective surface being housed in this space between the free end and the support and being carried by an arm which connects it to the support of the light source.
  • a support or pot 1 which contains a fiber ribbon 2, for example Long fibers.
  • This pot is cylindrical with a circular base and it has an open upper end 3 by which the ribbon 2 is taken by traction.
  • the pot 1 is intended to feed by its ribbon 2 a spinning preparation machine, for example a drawing machine in which a plurality of ribbons such as the ribbon 2 are arranged side by side to form a sheet which is treated with appropriately.
  • the ribbon 2 leaves it passing over the edge of the upper opening 3 to present a free end 4 which hangs freely outside the pot.
  • the pot 1 is made to rotate about its vertical axis, by means in themselves known, to bring the free end 4 into a predetermined angular position relative to this axis.
  • the pot 1 is rotated as indicated by the arrows A (Figs. 1 and 2) until the free end 4 occupies the predetermined angular position above, this position preferably being detected optically.
  • the device comprises a light source 5 which is oriented radially towards the pot 1, a reflecting surface 6, and a receiver (not shown in itself, because it is associated with the light source 5) , this receiver being intended to receive the beam 7 reflected by the surface 6 and coming from the incident beam 8.
  • the reflecting surface 6 is fixed and, for this purpose, it is carried by an arm 9 which is integral with the support of the light source 5 and the receiver.
  • the pot 1 has an upper rim or flange 10 which projects radially outwards so that the free end 4, after passing over this rim 10, extends vertically away from the peripheral surface 11 of the pot 1, the reflective surface 6 being located in the immediate vicinity of the peripheral surface 11 so that the free end 4 can be housed, during its rotation along A, between the reflective surface and the light source or the receiver.
  • the outer projection of the rim 10 is less than the projection of a lower rim 12 of the pot so that, when handling the pot, the rim 10 is not damaged.
  • the pot 1 being placed in the machine, it is rotated along its vertical axis, in the direction A, until the free end 4 comes to occupy one of the two positions shown on the Fig. 2 for which it is located between the source 5 and the reflecting surface 6, thereby interrupting the incident or reflected beam 8 7.
  • the free end 4 is preferably in abutment against the arm 9. Because the beam reflected 7 no longer reaches the receiver, the latter emits a signal representative of the presence of the free end 4 in the desired predetermined angular position, which immediately causes the rotation of the pot 1 to stop.
  • the device comprises two fingers pinching 14 which are each articulated around a vertical axis 15 on a support 16 belonging to a movable gripping member 17 which ensures this transfer.
  • the pinching or gripping fingers 14 are located above the detector means and they are arranged to be able to occupy two positions, namely a retracted position (Figs. 1 and 2) for which they are separated from the pot 1 and the free end 4 in the predetermined angular position above, and an active or closed position (Figs. 3 and 4) for which they extend substantially in the radial position relative to the pot 1 to end in the immediate vicinity of the peripheral surface 11 of this and pinch the free end 4.
  • the free end 4 in its zone of cooperation with the fingers 14, is subjected to a movement of radial spacing with respect to the pot 1 to bring it into the area of action of these fingers, and in particular to bring it closer to the joints 15.
  • a radial spacing movement is visible on examination of FIGS. 2 to 4 in which it can be seen that, from the position of FIG. 2, the free end 4 has been moved radially to the left to approach the joints 15.
  • this spacing movement is obtained by a pneumatic action, and more precisely by a suction using a nozzle 18 which is connected to a suction source (not shown) and which is directed radially towards the support 1, its mouth being situated slightly closer to the pot 1 than the joints 15.
  • a vertical filter and grid 19 cover the mouth of the nozzle 18 and constitute a stop for the free end 4 in the separated position, as best visible in FIG. 3.
  • the nozzle 18 is located vertically below the pinching fingers 14 and above the optical detector means.
  • the pinching fingers 14 it is preferable for the pinching fingers 14 to grasp the free end 4 at a predetermined distance from its free end 20.
  • a relative vertical displacement is created between the pinching fingers 14 and the free end 4, in the longitudinal direction of the ribbon, so that the free end 4 is grasped at a predetermined distance from the free end 20. This is obtained by moving vertically as a single assembly, as shown by arrow B of the Fig. 3, the detector means, the nozzle 18 and the gripping member 17 carrying the gripping fingers 14.
  • the pinching fingers 4 which have a curved cross section, for example round or ovoid, are practically tangent when they are in the closed position, to firmly tighten the ribbon.
  • the length of ribbon remaining under the fingers is defined by the vertical spacing which exists between the pinching fingers and the detector means.
  • this spacing can be variable and adjustable if it is desired to modify the length of tape under the pinching fingers.
  • the invention provides a method and a device which make it possible to grip the free end of the ribbon, in a reliable and simple manner.
