Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Leistungssteigerung beim Schußfadeneintrag in ein Webfach einer Luftdüsenwebmaschine und Eintragsdüse zur Durchführung des Verfahrens.The invention relates to a method for increasing the performance of weft insertion into a shed of an air jet loom and insertion nozzle for carrying out the method.

Es ist allgemein bekannt, daß beim Schußeintrag mittels Luftstrahl die Zugkraftübertragung auf den Schußfaden innerhalb des Mischrohres der Eintragsdüse erfolgt. Zur Beeinflussung der Strömungseigenschaften und damit auch der Zugkraftübertragung auf den Schußfaden wird die unter einem bestimmten Druck der Eintragsdüse zugeführte Luftströmung innerhalb der Eintragsdüse durch Querschnittsveränderung des Luftzufuhrkanals in Richtung Schußeintrag beschleunigt. Die beschleunigte Luftströmung gelangt daraufhin in einen gegenüber dem Beschleunigungsbereich vergrößerten Innenquerschnitt eines Mischrohres, expandiert darin und nimmt dabei den Schußfaden zum Eintrag in das Webfach mit. Im Stadium des Übergangs der Luftströmung erfolgt dabei eine sprungartige Expansion der Luftströmung. Diese sprungartige Expansion verursacht, vom Ausgang des Luftzufuhrkanals bis in den Eingangsbereich des Mischrohres hinein, Strömungsturbulenzen, die sich negativ auf die Struktur des Schußfadens und auf dessen Mitnahmeverhalten, also auf die Zugkraftübertragung und damit auf die Schußfadenflugzeit über die Webbreite auswirken.It is generally known that when the weft is inserted by means of an air jet, the tensile force is transferred to the weft within the mixing tube of the entry nozzle. In order to influence the flow properties and thus also the transmission of tensile force to the weft thread, the air flow supplied to the entry nozzle under a certain pressure is accelerated by changing the cross section of the air supply channel in the direction of the weft entry. The accelerated air flow then reaches an internal cross section of a mixing tube which is enlarged compared to the acceleration range, expands therein and takes the weft thread with it for entry into the shed. At the stage of the transition of the air flow there is a sudden expansion of the air flow. This sudden expansion causes flow turbulence, from the exit of the air supply duct to the entrance area of the mixing tube, which has a negative effect on the structure of the weft thread and on its entrainment behavior, i.e. on the tensile force transmission and thus on the weft flight time over the weaving width.

Eine Eintragsdüse für eine Luftwebmaschine mit einstellbarer Luftströmungsbeschleunigung ist aus der EP 0 239 137 B1 vorbekannt.An entry nozzle for an air weaving machine with adjustable air flow acceleration is previously known from EP 0 239 137 B1.

Diese Eintragsdüse besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Düsengehäuse mit einem darin axial verschiebbar oder fest angeordneten Fadenzufuhrrohr, einem Luftzufuhrkanal für das Düsenmedium, der konzentrisch von dem Düsengehäuse umschlossen ist, und einem Mischrohr, das in der Verlängerung des Fadenzufuhrrohres und gegebenenfalls axial verschiebbar oder fest im Gehäuse angeordnet ist, und wobei der Luftzufuhrkanal zwischen dem Ende des Fadenzufuhrrohres und dem Mischrohr endet.This entry nozzle essentially consists of a nozzle housing with an axially displaceable or fixedly arranged thread supply tube, an air supply channel for the nozzle medium which is concentrically enclosed by the nozzle housing, and a mixing tube which is in the extension of the thread supply tube and optionally axially displaceable or fixed in the housing is arranged, and wherein the air supply channel ends between the end of the thread supply tube and the mixing tube.

Auch hier expandiert die aus dem Luftzufuhrkanal austretende, beschleunigte Luftströmung sprungartig und führt zu Strömungsturbulenzen am Ausgang des Luftzufuhrkanals, die sich bis in den Eingang des Mischrohres fortsetzen. Diese Strömungsturbulenzen wirken sich nachteilig auf die Struktur des Schußfadens und auf dessen Transportverhalten aus.Here, too, the accelerated air flow emerging from the air supply duct expands abruptly and leads to flow turbulence at the outlet of the air supply duct, which continues into the inlet of the mixing tube. These flow turbulences adversely affect the structure of the weft thread and its transport behavior.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Verfahren zur schonenden Mitnahme des Schußfadens und zugleich zur Steigerung der Leistung der Eintragsdüse einer Webmaschine zu schaffen. Ferner ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Eintragsdüse zur Durchführung des Verfahrens anzugeben.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a method for gentle entrainment of the weft thread and at the same time for increasing the performance of the entry nozzle of a weaving machine. It is also an object of the invention to provide an entry nozzle for carrying out the method.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgem. durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale der Ansprüche 1 und 4 gelöst.The object is achieved. solved by the characterizing features of claims 1 and 4.

Mit der erfindungsgem. Verlagerung des Beginns der Expansion der Luftströmung und mit der erfindungsgem. Ausbildung des Schußfadenzufuhrrohres wird die sprungartige Expansion der Luftströmung beim Übergang in das Mischrohr vermieden. Damit wird die Leistungsfähigkeit bekannter Eintrag- bzw. Hauptdüsen verbessert. Die Struktur des Schußfadens wird nicht angegriffen.With the invention. Shifting the beginning of the expansion of the air flow and with the invention. Formation of the weft feed tube prevents the abrupt expansion of the air flow during the transition into the mixing tube. This improves the performance of known entry or main nozzles. The structure of the weft thread is not attacked.

Versuche der Anmelderin haben anhand von Vergleichsmessungen zwischen der erfindungsgem. ausgebildeten Eintragsdüse und bekannten Eintragsdüsen gezeigt, daß bei einem Druck der Luftströmung zwischen 1,0 bis 6,0 bar die Kraftübertragung auf den Schußfaden um etwa 10 % bis 30 %, je nach dem Verhältnis Endabschnitt-Außendurchmesser des Schußfadenzufuhrrohres zum Anfangsabschnitt-Innendurchmesser des Mischrohres, höher liegt.
Die erfindungsgem. Lösung garantiert, und dies bestätigen Messergebnisse bei der Anmelderin, daß bei einem Vordruck von 1,0 bar ein Sog am Eingang des Schußfadenzufuhrrohres von unter - 100 mbar herrscht, womit die Einfädelungsfunktion des Schußfadens in die Eintragsdüse gewährleistet ist.
Tests by the applicant have based on comparative measurements between the invention. trained entry nozzle and known entry nozzles shown that at a pressure of the air flow between 1.0 to 6.0 bar, the force transmission to the weft by about 10% to 30%, depending on the ratio of the end section-outer diameter of the weft feed tube to the start section-inner diameter of the mixing tube , is higher.
The invention. Solution guaranteed, and this is confirmed by measurement results from the applicant, that at a pre-pressure of 1.0 bar there is suction at the entrance of the weft feed tube of below - 100 mbar, which guarantees the threading function of the weft thread in the entry nozzle.

Ferner wurde aus den Vergleichsmessungen zur Fadenflugzeit festgestellt, daß beim Einsatz von Faser- und Filamentgarnen im Schuß mit der erfindungsgem. ausgebildeten Eintragsdüse eindeutig kürzere Fadenflugzeiten erzielt werden. Den Vergleichsmessungen lagen gleiche Druckverhältnisse an den Eintragsdüsen zugrunde.Furthermore, it was found from the comparative measurements of the thread flight time that when using fiber and filament yarns in weft with the invention. trained entry nozzle clearly shorter thread flight times can be achieved. The comparative measurements were based on the same pressure conditions at the entry nozzles.

Bei der Herstellung von Glasgewebe z.B., konnte die Maschinendrehzahl auf 128 % gesteigert werden, ohne daß die Qualität des Gewebes nachteilig beeinflußt wurde.In the production of glass fabric, for example, the machine speed could be increased to 128% without the quality of the fabric being adversely affected.

Die Eintragsdüse 1 zum Eintragen des Schußfadens 2 in ein nicht dargestelltes Webfach besteht gem. Fig. 1 aus einem Fadenzufuhrrohr 3, aus einem von einem Gehäuse 4 konzentrisch umgegebenen Luftzufuhrkanal 5 für eine unter Druck über den Stutzen 6 zugeführte Luftströmung, siehe auch Pfeil 7, und aus einem Mischrohr 8, das in der Verlängerung des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 innerhalb der Eintragsdüse 1 angeordnet ist.
Sowohl das Fadenzufuhrrohr 3 als auch das Mischrohr 8 kann in Richtung der Doppelpfeile 9 bzw. 10 in dem Gehäuse 4 axial verschiebbar angeordnet sein, um in einem Überlappungsbereich, siehe auch Einzelheit Z, zwischen dem Endabschnitt 3a des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 und dem Anfangsabschnitt 8a des Mischrohres 8 die Luftströmung zu beschleunigen. Dazu ist der Endabschnitt 3a z.B. in Art eines Außenkonus und der Anfangsabschnitt 8a z.B. in Art eines Innenkonus ausgebildet.
The entry nozzle 1 for inserting the weft thread 2 in a shed, not shown, consists according to Fig. 1 from a thread feed tube 3, from a concentrically surrounded by a housing 4 air supply duct 5 for an air pressure supplied via the nozzle 6, see also arrow 7, and from a mixing tube 8, which is in the extension of the thread feed tube 3 within the feed nozzle 1 is arranged.
Both the thread feed tube 3 and the mixing tube 8 can be arranged axially displaceably in the direction of the double arrows 9 and 10 in the housing 4, in order to overlap, see also detail Z, between the end section 3a of the thread feed tube 3 and the start section 8a of the mixing tube 8 to accelerate the air flow. For this purpose, the end section 3a is formed, for example, in the manner of an outer cone and the beginning section 8a, for example in the manner of an inner cone.

Eine zylindrische Ausbildung dieser Abschnitte ist denkbar.A cylindrical design of these sections is conceivable.

Zwischen dem Außenkonus und dem Innenkonus ist ein Luftströmungskanal 5a mit einer ringförmigen Querschnittsfläche ausgebildet, siehe auch Fig. 3, dessen Querschnitt bei axial verstellbarer Anordnung des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 oder des Mischrohres 8 variabel ist, um der Luftströmung die gewünschte Beschleunigung zu verleihen.
Der ringförmige Luftströmungskanal 5a mündet in einem kreisförmig umschlossenen Luftströmungskanal 8b des Mischrohres 8.
An air flow channel 5a with an annular cross-sectional area is formed between the outer cone and the inner cone, see also FIG. 3, the cross section of which is variable when the thread feed tube 3 or the mixing tube 8 is axially adjustable in order to give the air flow the desired acceleration.
The annular air flow channel 5a opens into a circularly enclosed air flow channel 8b of the mixing tube 8.

Die Querschnittsfläche des Luftströmungskanales 8b ist im Vergleich zur Querschnittsfläche des Luftströmungskanales 5a größer dimensioniert.
Der Endabschnitt 3a des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 weist erfindungsgem. z.B. Einschnitte 11, z.B. in Art einer Kerbe auf, die vorzugsweise symmetrisch um die Mittenachse 12 des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 angeordnet sind.
Als vorteilhaft hat sich beim Schußfadeneintragen herausgestellt, wenn der Öffnungswinkel des betreffenden Einschnittes 11 < 90 ° ist.
Die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen den Endabschnitt 3a des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3, dessen Wandung mehr als 2 Einschnitte 11 aufweist.
The cross-sectional area of the air flow channel 8b is larger compared to the cross-sectional area of the air flow channel 5a.
The end section 3a of the thread feed pipe 3 has the invention. eg incisions 11, for example in the manner of a notch, which are preferably arranged symmetrically about the central axis 12 of the thread feed tube 3.
It has been found to be advantageous when inserting the weft thread if the opening angle of the incision in question is 11 <90 °.
FIGS. 4 and 5 show the end section 3a of the thread feed tube 3, the wall of which has more than 2 incisions 11.

In Fig. 6 sind anstelle von Einschnitten 11 Durchbrüche 13, 14, 15 in Art von Durchgangsbohrungen vorgesehen, die in einer oder mehreren umlaufenden Reihen in die Wandung des Endabschnittes 3a eingebracht sind.
Von Vorteil ist dabei, wenn die Bohrungen in einem spitzen Winkel zur Mittenachse 12 in Luftströmungsrichtung, siehe auch Pfeile 7, angeordnet sind.
Von Vorteil ist ferner, wenn die Querschnittsflächen sowohl der Einschnitte 11 als auch der Reihen von Bohrungen 13, 14, 15 in Richtung der ausgangsseitigen Stirnfläche des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 im Endabschnitt 3a zunehmen.
In FIG. 6, instead of cuts 11, openings 13, 14, 15 are provided in the manner of through bores, which are made in one or more circumferential rows in the wall of the end section 3a.
It is advantageous if the bores are arranged at an acute angle to the central axis 12 in the air flow direction, see also arrows 7.
It is also advantageous if the cross-sectional areas of both the incisions 11 and the rows of bores 13, 14, 15 increase in the direction of the end face of the thread feed tube 3 in the end section 3a.

Die Funktionsweise der erfindungsgem. Lösung ist wie folgt:The operation of the invention. Solution is as follows:

Über den Stutzen 6 erfolgt die Luftzufuhr mit einem bestimmten Druckpotential. Dieser Luftstrom gelangt in den ringförmigen Luftzufuhrkanal 5 und in den sich verjüngenden
Luftströmungskanal 5a, der durch die Überlappung des Anfangsabschnittes 8a des Mischrohres 8 und dem Endabschnitt 3a des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 gebildet wird. Hier erfährt die Luftströmung eine Beschleunigung, in deren Ergebnis diese eine Überschallgeschwindigkeit annehmen kann.
Um nun beim Übergang der beschleunigten Luftströmung von dem sich verjüngenden Querschnitt des Luftströmungskanals 5a in den kreisförmigen Querschnitt des Luftströmungskanals 8b des Mischrohres 8 eine sprungartige Expansion der Luftströmung mit deren nachteiligen Folgen auf den Schußfaden zu unterbinden und vielmehr eine sanfte Expansion zu erreichen, wird erfindungsgem. der Expansionsvorgang durch Vorkehrungen im Endabschnitt 3a des Fadenzufuhrrohres 3 in das Fadenzufuhrrohr 3 verlagert. Dies hat zur Folge, daß dadurch die Luftströmungsgeschwindigkeit reduziert wird und der Schußfaden schonend und zu einem früheren Zeitpunkt als bekannt mitgenommen wird.
The air supply takes place via the nozzle 6 with a certain pressure potential. This air flow enters the annular air supply duct 5 and the tapered one
Air flow channel 5a, which is formed by the overlap of the start portion 8a of the mixing tube 8 and the end portion 3a of the thread feed tube 3. Here The air flow experiences an acceleration, as a result of which it can assume a supersonic speed.
In order to prevent a sudden expansion of the air flow with its disadvantageous consequences on the weft thread and rather to achieve a gentle expansion during the transition of the accelerated air flow from the tapering cross section of the air flow channel 5a into the circular cross section of the air flow channel 8b of the mixing tube 8, the invention is achieved. the expansion process is shifted into the thread feed tube 3 by means of precautions in the end section 3a of the thread feed tube 3. This has the consequence that the air flow speed is reduced and the weft thread is carried gently and at an earlier point in time than is known.
