Definitions

  • This invention concerns a device for the automatic feed of textile machines and, in particular, of combing machines.
  • the invention concerns a device for the automatic withdrawal of a plurality of lap packages packaged on lap production machines, the conveying of the lap packages to the neighbourhood of the combing machines and the discharge of such packages in the zone of feed of the combing heads.
  • the device provides also for the automatic withdrawal of the empty tubes for the lap from the combing machines and the conveying and automatic discharge of the tubes at the required positions.
  • the device is suitable to feed a plurality of combing machines and also to serve one or more lap production machines.
  • the DE-A-1.288.490 discloses an overhead transportation system for single laps, by means of an overhead transfer device, from lap producing machines to combing machines.
  • the system in the form of a trolley has the sole purpose of temporary storing laps while waiting for same to be taken up by the overhead transfer device.
  • the trolley is movable cross-wise and step-wise in relation to the lap producing machine by a distance that is equal to about the width of three laps.
  • the trolley has the purpose of positioning the stored laps in the proper lifting position, which lifting is carried out by a lifting device such that said lap can be taken up by the transfer device.
  • the purpose of said trolley is not one of transporting and transferring laps and empty tubes from a lap producing machine to a combing machine. Reference is neither made to the manner of transferring the laps to the combing machine, nor to the transfer of empty tubes from the combing machine to the lap producing machine.
  • the present applicant has studied, tested and obtained a device able to overcome all the problems of the state of the art.
  • an arrangement for transporting packages of lap and empty tubes between a lap producing machine and combing machines comprises a trolley with a control and a drive unit for automatically guiding the trolley on the floor and for exactly moving to a predeterminated position for loading and unloading packages of laps or empty tubes, said trolley being equipped with a collecting container for receiving a plurality of packages of laps in a systematic manner and further equipped with an appropriate container adapted for automatically collecting empty tubes from each of the combing machines and for automatically discharging the collected tubes to the lap production machine.
  • control unit of the trolley is connected with a central data processing unit conversing with the trolley and receiving information as to everything taking place in the network connecting the devices by a communication system.
  • the collection container may hold a required number of lap packages, which is generally equal to, or a multiple or submultiple of, the number of combing heads.
  • the guide system is advantageously of a type operated by a magnetic guide wire.
  • a trolley of the type operated by a magnetic guide wire is operated by a magnetic field generated by a wire sunk at a small depth in the floor and traversed by a weak current.
  • the trolley can follow pre-set routes or can travel to the combing machines which require it; it can also serve one or more lap production machines.
  • the trolley can comprise a body bearing a collection container for the packages of lap wherein the container can have a movable sidewall.
  • the body can be mounted on a base, wherein the base can contain control units, batteries, drive motors and steering motors.
  • a trolley for transporting packages of laps and empty tubes between a lap producing machine and combing machines comprising a base provided with a control and a drive unit, with batteries, motors and steering motors for automatically guiding the trolley on the floor and a body on the base, a container for packages of laps and an appropriate container for automatically collecting empty tubes on the body and loading/unloading means for laps and empty tubes.
  • Fig.1 shows a diagram of a lap drawing frame 10 of the state of the art, in which fibres 11 coming from feeder creels converge on three drawing heads 12 and are then combined and collected on lap packages 13 in a collection unit 14.
  • the collection unit 14 packages one lap package 13 at a time and then discharges it automatically into a discharge unit 15 forming part of the lap drawing frame 10.
  • the lap packages 13 are discharged by the collection unit 14 one after another in series into the discharge unit 15, whence they may be removed in turn by hand or automatically.
  • a number of lap packages 13 equal to, or a multiple or submultiple of, the number of the heads of the combing machines 17 positioned downstream can be normally held in the discharge unit 15.
  • the device according to the invention provides for the use of a trolley 18, advantageously of a type guided by a magnetic guide wire, which is suitable to take the lap packages 13 held in the discharge unit 15 automatically and to convey them to the combing zone.
  • the trolley 18 possesses a body 19 suitable to bear a collection container 20 in which the lap packages 13 are arranged in an orderly manner in a number equal to, or a multiple or submultiple of, the number of heads of a combing machine 17.
  • a base 21 of the trolley 18 normally holds the control units of the trolley, the batteries, the drive motors and motors to steer the motive wheels.
  • the collection container 20 has a movable sidewall 22 which can be moved by jacks 23 for the loading or unloading of lap packages 13.
  • the trolley 18 is sent to the department of the combining machines along pre-set routes or as called for by the combing machines 17.
  • the operations of the trolley 18 can be centralized, whereby a central unit is informed by a communication system concerning everything taking place in the network and determines the movement of the trolley according to the information received.
  • the operation of the trolleys 18 can also be decentralized, whereby the trolleys by themselves are able to perform the majority of the typical functions of the central unit described above.
  • the trolley 18 When the trolley 18 has reached the pre-selected combing machine 17, it discharges the lap packages 17 in an orderly manner by means of its movable sidewall 22 and the jacks 23 in a storage zone on the combing machine 17 in a position corresponding exactly with the loading of the lap packages 13 on the combing heads.
  • the trolley 18 may collect the empty tubes 16 of the lap packages 13 automatically in an appropriate container on the trolley in cooperation with a collection point on the combing machine 17 and may discharge those tubes 16 thereafter in an appropriate storage station or in correspondence with the lap drawing frame 10.
  • Fig.3 shows a diagram of a possible lay-out whereby a trolley 18 serves a lap drawing frame 10 and eight combing machines 17 arranged two by two in parallel. In this case the trolley 18 serves the combing machines 17 by carrying out an endless circuit.
  • Fig.4 shows a case in which the trolley 18 can serve two lap drawing frames 10 and twelve combing machines 17, the latter being arranged in parallel. In the case of Fig.4 the trolley 18 will follow straight routes in serving the combing machines 17.
