Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a yarn transferring method for a take-up winder according to the preamble of claim 1 defined, for example, by EP-A-0 367 253.
  • FIG. 14 and 15 of the accompanying drawing A related, known take-up winder of this type is shown schematically in Fig. 14 and 15 of the accompanying drawing in which 115 and 116 are two bobbin holders protruding from a rotatable turret plate 102. Several bobbins are installed on each of the bobbin holders 115 and 116. One of the two bobbin holders 115 and 116 is located at a winding position (a) while the other is located at a standby position (b).
  • the yarn is wound around the bobbin located at the winding position (a), and each time the bobbin becomes full, the turret plate 102 is rotated by 180° to switch the position in order to start winding the yarn around an empty bobbin EB that newly arrives at the winding position (a).
  • the turret plate 102 is rotated by 180 ° to switch the positions of the two bobbin holders 115 and 116 in such a way that the full bobbin FB is located at the standby position (b) while the empty bobbin EB is located at the winding position (a).
  • a supplied yarn Y is still connected to the full bobbin FB at the standby position (b), and the transferring of the yarn from the full bobbin FB to the empty bobbin EB is not completed until that yarn is caught in a yarn capturing slit 117 in the empty bobbin EB followed by the start of winding.
  • Such a take-up winder transfers the yarn in response to the switching operation of the turret plate 102 and bobbin holders 115 and 116, it includes a first yarn guide device 150 on the upstream side and a second yarn guide device 120 on the downstream side.
  • the first yarn guide device 150 is provided on the upstream side relative to the traverse device 104, and consists of a yarn displacement guide 151 and a yarn release guide 152.
  • the second yarn guide device 120 comprises a slide guide 121 and a fixed guide 122 provided at the tip of an oscillating arm 123 that advances between the empty bobbin EB and the full bobbin FB.
  • the second yarn guide device 120 advances to a position between the empty bobbin EB and the full bobbin FB that is indicated by a continuous line.
  • the yarn release guide 152 then advances to release the yarn from the traverse device 104, and at the same time, a yarn guide 159 of the yarn displacement guide 151 in Figure 15 moves leftward in Figure 15 to displace the travelling yarn to a position corresponding to the slit 117 in the empty bobbin EB.
  • the fixed guide 122 of the second guide device 120 supports the travelling yarn on the full bobbin FB, and then the slide guide 121 of the second yarn guide device 120 moves leftward in Figure 15 to carry the travelling yarn to the slit 117 in the empty bobbin EB in order to transfer the yarn thereto.
  • the empty bobbin EB starts contacting the travelling yarn at position 8 ⁇ in response to the swithcing of the positions of the turret plate 102 and the bobbin holders 115 and 116.
  • the contact angle ⁇ between the empty bobbin EB and the travelling yarn increases starting from position 8 ⁇ , and reaches its maximum value at winding position 9 ⁇ in excess of 60°.
  • the rotating direction of the empty bobbin EB is opposite to the travelling direction of the yarn Y, the travelling yarn Y is rubbed by the surface of the empty bobbin EB.
  • the second yarn guide device 120 advances to reduce the contact angle ⁇ between the travelling yarn Y and the empty bobbin EB (the angle ⁇ required for yarn-transferring). Until the second yarn guide device 120 reaches its operating position, the travelling yarn Y is rubbed on the empty bobbin EB at the large contact angle. Thus, the yarn may be damaged and generate fluffs, and the damaged yarn may be wound around the full bobbin. In addition, if the yarn is thin and is not sufficiently elastic, it may be cut, causing the yarn-transferring operation to fail.
  • the second yarn guide device 120 advances after the bobbin holders 115 and 116 have been rotated 180° to complete the switching operation in order to place the empty bobbin EB at the winding position (a), the travelling year Y is rubbed by the empty bobbin EB for an extended period of time, and thus the switching operation and the yarn-transferring operation are extremely time-consuming.
  • the conventional winder forces the second yarn guide device 120 to advance after the empty bobbin EB has reached the winding position (a) because it is difficult to move the second yarn guide device 120 forward so as not to interfere with the empty bobbin EB travelling from the standby position (b) to the winding position (a).
  • the second yarn guide device 120 advances after the bobbin holders 115 and 116 have been rotated by 180° to complete the switching operation in order to place the empty bobbin EB at the winding position (a).
  • the yarn displacement guide 151 of the first yarn guide device 115 moves leftward to enable the yarn to be displaced to the position corresponding to the slit 117 in the empty bobbin EB.
  • the yarn-transferring operation until yarn-transferring is completed is extremely time-consuming because it involves the completion of the switching operation provided by the rotation of the turret plate 102, the advancement of the second yarn guide device 120, and the activation of the yarn displacement guide 151 of the first yarn guide device 150 in this order.
  • the travelling yarn Y is rubbed by the empty bobbin EB at the contact angle ⁇ or ⁇ for a long period of time. Consequently, the yarn may be damaged and become fluffy, and the damaged yarn may be wound around the full bobbin. In addition, if the yarn is thin and not sufficiently elastic, it may be cut, causing the yarn-transferring operation to fail. Furthermore, another conventional disadvantage is that the yarn is displaced while contacting the empty bobbin EB at an contact angle ⁇ that exceeds 60° . The yarn Y may be rubbed on the surface of the bobbin, and damaged or cut.
  • the present invention is provided in view of these problems of the conventional techniques, and its object is to provide a a yarn-transferring method for a take-up winder that can reduce the time required until yarn-transferring during the switching operation that switches two bobbin holders between a winding position and a standby position, that can increase the success rate of the transferring of the yarn-transferring from the full bobbin to the empty bobbin, and that does not damage the yarn during the switching operation.
  • the present invention also provides a take-up winder having a switching operation for switching two bobbin holders between a winding position and a standby position and in response to the switching operation, transferring to an empty bobbin a travelling yarn leading to a full bobbin.
  • a yarn path restraining guide is provided that controls during the switching operation the contact angle at which the travelling yarn contacts the empty bobbin and that is controlled so that the contact angle varying from the contacting of the travelling yarn with the empty bobbin until yarn-transferring is kept smaller than that during yarn-transferring.

  • the turret plate further rotates, and the turret plate is positioned at a switching position ⁇ 3 (not shown in the drawings), the travelling yarn Y leading to the full bobbin FB contacts the empty bobbin EB. Then the slide plate 24 of the second guide device 20 starts to advance to the travelling yarn Y.
  • Figure 5 shows the switching operations ⁇ 4 to ⁇ 8 at a predetermined interval.
  • the travelling yarn Y contacts the empty bobbin EB slightly, and the yarn path restraining guide 21 located at the top of the end of the slide plate 24 and used as the slide yarn guide advances, but does not restrain the yarn path for the travelling yarn Y yet.
  • the yarn path restraining guide 21 also serves as the slide yarn guide pushes out the travelling yarn Y to maintain the contact angle within 10°.
  • the empty bobbin EB further cuts in the travelling yarn Y. Since the position of the oscillating arm 23 changes in response to the movement of the bobbin holder, however, the yarn path restraining guide 21 also serves as the slide yarn guide advances in response to the movement of the empty bobbin EB in order to push out the travelling yarn Y further. Consequently, until immediately before the empty bobbin EB reaches the final specified switching position at 180°, the angle at which the travelling yarn Y contacts the empty bobbin EB, which rotates in the direction opposite to the travelling direction of the yarn Y, is maintained within 10°.
  • Figure 6 shows the specified winding position (a), or the switching position at 180°. Even when the yarn contacts the empty bobbin EB during the switching operation, the contact angle is kept smaller than the angle required to transfer the yarn to the empty bobbin EB (in order to allow the slit to capture the yarn) until a yarn-transferring position is reached (until yarn-transferring is started). At this specified position, the angle at which the travelling yarn Y contacts the empty bobbin EB increases to enable the yarn-transferring operation. The yarn-transferring time period, during which the contact angle increases, is extremely short.
  • the travelling yarn Y While the travelling yarn Y is restrained by the yarn path restraining guide 21 also serving as the slide yarn guide, it remains in contact with the bottom surface of the notch 43 in Figure 2 without causing the slide yarn guide 21 to slide.

  • the bobbin holder 16 at the standby position on which the empty bobbin is installed starts accelerating.
  • the turret plate starts rotating to initiate a switching operation.
  • the travelling yarn does not contact the empty bobbin EB until the switching position transfers ⁇ 4, a first phase of yarn displacement is carried out as shown in Figures 7 and 8.
  • the yarn release guide 52 advances in direction 1 ⁇ to release the yarn from the traverse device 4, then the tension causes the travelling yarn Y to be centered, and center winding is then started as shown in Figure 7.
  • the bar body 57 and the yarn guide bar 59 move forward and then in the lateral direction as shown by arrow 3 ⁇ in response to the extension of the air pressure cylinder 58.
  • the stopper 60 of the bar body 57 contacts the tip of the rod of the second air cylinder 61 and halts. This condition is shown in Figure 8. At this point, a first end straight winding, the yarn is wound around one section of the bobbin, is formed on the surface of the full bobbin FB.
  • a first position of the first end straight winding is within the notch 43 in the slide yarn guide 21 and immediately before the claw 42 of the fixed guide 22. Therefore, the specified switching position at 180° is reached while the yarn path restraining guide 21 also serving as the slide yarn guide restrains the yarn path by holding the yarn within the notch 43.
  • the travelling yarn does not fall from that part of the yarn layer on the full bobbin that is located at the end of the yarn layer of the full bobbin, and this position is located closer to the center of the bobbin than to the third yarn-transferring guide, which enables the travelling yarn to be displaced to the end of the bobbin before the third yarn-transferring guide is advanced.
  • the travelling yarn can be displaced to the first position near the end of the bobbin while the turret plate is rotating, thereby reducing the time from the switching operation until yarn-transferring and thus the time during which the travelling yarn contacts the empty bobbin in order to increase the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • yarn-transferring can be executed with little or no contact between the travelling yarn and the empty bobbin, the yarn is subjected to little damage, which further increases the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • a second position achieved by the second phase of yarn displacement is determined by a stopper 61a, and this condition is detected by a sensor 61b.
  • the second position for yarn displacement should be beyond the slit 17 in the empty bobbin EB but may be anywhere near the slit 17.
  • the claw 42 of the fixed guide 22 of the second yarn guide device 20 precludes the yarn from falling from the full bobbin FB to form a second end straight winding that is much closer to the end of the bobbin than the first end straight winding.
  • the slide yarn guide 21 of the second yarn guide device 20 simultaneously travels in the lateral direction as shown by arrow 4 ⁇ to move the downstream side of the travelling yarn Y to a position at which the yarn traverses the slit 17 in the empty bobbin EB.
  • the yarn release guide 52 moves backward as shown by arrow 5 ⁇ , causing the travelling yarn to be caught on a guide surface 53a of the fixed yarn guide 53.
  • Figure 11 shows a condition immediately after yarn-transferring carried out after the travelling yarn Y has been caught in the slit 17 in the empty bobbin EB.

  • the bar body 57 and yarn guide bar 59 leave, as shown by arrow 6 ⁇ while moving backward.
  • the travelling yarn Y which naturally falls from the guide surface 53a of the fixed yarn guide 53 due to its tension, is then caught on the traverse guide 6 of the traverse device 4 to start traversing in order to start normal traverse winding.
  • Figure 13 shows the timings of the operations of the first yarn guide device 50 and the second yarn guide device 20.
  • the travelling yarn Y is released from the traverse device as indicated by reference numeral 71, and the first yarn guide device displaces the yarn to the first position that is close to the end of the traverse range as indicated by reference numeral 72, followed by the start of the first end straight winding as indicated by reference numeral 73.
  • the yarn enters the notch 43 in the yarn path restraining guide 21 also serving as the slide yarn guide and the yarn path restraining guide 21 advances while being guided by the bobbin holder for the empty bobbin EB, thereby restricting the contact angle ⁇ between the travelling yarn and the empty bobbin EB to within 10 ° .

  • the second yarn guide device 20 advances before the specified position is reached for yarn-transferring, so the yarn can be transferred as soon as the specified position is reached. This can reduce the probability of the failure to transfer the yarn caused by the contact between the yarn and the empty bobbin maintained until yarn-transferring.
  • the contact angle remains at a large value, or at least 60 ° within the contact section. Furthermore, since after the establishment of the specified position, the yarn-transferring is done by the advancement of the second yarn guide device, the activation of the first yarn guide device and the second yarn guide device, a large amount of time transfers before the yarn-transferring, thereby increasing the total time required to transfer the yarn. As a result, in the conventional yarn-transferring, the travelling yarn remains in contact with the empty bobbin for an extended period of time, thereby increasing the probability of yarn-transferring failure.
  • the present invention effectively increases the success rate of yarn-transferring whether these operations are separately implemented or only the restriction of the contact angle is provided.
  • the oscillating arm 23 (shoes 29, 30) is contacted with the bobbin holder. This is to reduce the impact (impact sound) upon contact.
  • this advancement member is not limited to the yarn guide but may be a partitioning member that advances between the empty and full bobbins during the yarn-transferring operation. Furthermore, the advancement member is not limited to the one that advances between the empty and full bobbins, but may be the member that advances upward from the empty bobbin.
  • this member need only advance to a neighborhood of the empty bobbin during the switching operation.
  • the member that is moved forward toward the empty bobbin during the switching operation (the second yarn guide device 20) is moved forward while being guided by the bobbin holder for the empty bobbin.
  • This configuration allows the position of the advancement member to be determined accurately relative to the empty bobbin, thereby preventing the interference between the empty bobbin and the advancement member without the needs for complicated control .
  • the first switching guide acts on the travelling yarn on the upstream side of the touch roller, but may also act on the travelling yarn between the touch roller and the empty bobbin.
  • the contact angle between the empty bobbin and the travelling yarn during the revolving of the bobbin holder, that is, the switching operation is reduced by the yarn path restraining guide, so the rubbing of the travelling yarn by the empty bobbin is mitigated to prevent the yarn from being damaged in order, thereby increasing the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • the present invention can significantly increase the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • the yarn is prevented from contacting the empty bobbin prior to yarn-transferring, but in this case, various constraints are imposed on the installation position of the yarn path restraining guide, the advancement timing for the yarn path restraining guide, and the switching timing for the full and empty bobbins.
  • the present invention can provide the above effect without creating these problems or complicating the device.
  • the yarn guide for transferring the yarn also serves as the yarn path restraining guide that reduces the contact angle between the yarn and the empty bobbin, so the yarn guide can be moved forward during the yarn-transferring operation to provide for yarn-transferring, thereby reducing the time from the switching operation until yarn-transferring and the time during which the yarn contacts the empty bobbin.
  • damage to the yarn is reduced, which in turn improves the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • the yarn guide can be moved forward while simultaneously preventing the interference between the empty and full bobbins.
  • the advancement of the member that travels to the empty bobbin during the switching operation is guided by the bobbin holder. Therefore, the advancement position of the advancement member relative to the empty bobbin installed on the bobbin holder can be determined accurately to simplify the controls, thereby forcing the switching timing for the advancement member to synchronize accurately with the switching timing for the full and empty bobbins.
  • This synchronism between these timings eliminates the need to provide the extra time that is required to switch between the full and empty bobbins at a low speed, thereby reducing the time required for switching. This feature is also preferable in implementing the present inventions.
  • the travelling yarn can be displaced to a neighborhood of the yarn capturing means at the end of the empty bobbin, that is, to the end of the yarn layer on the full bobbin.
  • This configuration can reduce the time from the switching of the position of the bobbin holder until yarn-transferring to reduce the time during which the travelling yarn is rubbed by the empty bobbin, thereby improving the quality of the yarn wound the full bobbin and thus the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • the present invention can significantly improve the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • the yarn displacing cannot be executed unless the yarn guide advances between the empty and full bobbins to preclude the travelling yarn from falling from the yarn layer on the full bobbin.
  • the advancement timing for the yarn guide is constrained by the need to avoid interference with the bobbins during the switching operation, thereby increasing the time until yarn-transferring.
  • the present invention can displace the yarn regardless of the advancement of the yarn guide.
  • the travelling yarn is displaced to the end of the yarn layer on the full bobbin while the yarn and empty bobbin do not contact each other.
  • the yarn is prevented from damage caused by its contact with the empty bobbin to further improve the quality of the yarn on the full bobbin and thus the success rate of yarn-transferring.
  • the travelling yarn is displaced to the end of the yarn layer on the full bobbin and held thereon to provide for yarn-transferring before the switching of the position of the bobbin holder is completed, thereby minimizing the time required to transfer the yarn.
