Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Handhabungssystem für Filamentspulen oder Doffs in einer Spinnereianlage mit den Merkmalen im Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches.The invention relates to a handling system for Filament spools or doffs in a spinning plant with the Features in the preamble of the main claim.

Ein solches Handhabungssystem ist aus der Praxis bekannt. Es verbindet den Spinnbereich mit dem Lagerbereich und weist im Spinnbereich eine Transporteinrichtung mit einer Vereinzelungsvorrichtung auf. Die Transporteinrichtung besteht aus mehreren Einzelsystemen, nämlich sogenannten Doffern und einer Einschienen-Hängebahn. Die Doffer haben einen am Boden und im Kopfbereich schienengeführten, verfahrbaren und drehbaren Ständer mit einem einzelnen Pin zur Aufnahme eines aus mehreren Filamentspulen bestehenden Doffs. Der einzelne Doffer kann nur in der Gasse vor den in Reihe aufgestellten Spinnmaschinen hin und her fahren und im Gassenbereich den Doff einem Carrier der Einschienen-Hängebahn übergeben. Dies bedingt eine Vielzahl von Doffern. Bei dieser Übergabe, die im Spinnbereich stattfindet, werden die Filamentspulen vom Doffer vereinzelt und auf den Carrier an der Einschienen-Hängebahn gesteckt. Dabei findet im Spinnbereich auch die Sichtkontrolle der einzelnen Filamentspulen statt. Das zweite Transportsystem befördert die Filamentspulen dann in den Regalbereich, wo sie noch einmal an ein Regalfördersystem übergeben und auf geeignete Weise eingelagert werden. Die bekannte Technik hat den Nachteil, daß sie sehr viel Zeit braucht und einen erhöhten apparativen und steuertechnischen Aufwand erfordert. Problematisch ist auch die Abstimmung der zwei Transportsysteme und die rechtzeitige Bereitstellung eines Carriers für den beladenen Doffer. Die Automatisierung des Handhabungssystems ist dadurch nicht immer gesichert.
Die Erfindung hat zur Aufgabe, ein besseres und leistungsfähigeres Handhabungssystem für Filamentspulen bzw. Doffs aufzuzeigen.Such a handling system is known from practice. It connects the spinning area to the storage area and has a transport device with a separating device in the spinning area. The transport system consists of several individual systems, namely so-called dopers and a monorail overhead conveyor. The doffers have a movable, rotatable stand on the floor and in the head area with a single pin for receiving a doff consisting of several filament spools. The individual doffer can only move back and forth in the alley in front of the spinning machines installed in a row and in the alley area hand over the doff to a carrier of the monorail monorail. This necessitates a large number of cases. During this transfer, which takes place in the spinning area, the filament spools are separated from the doffer and placed on the carrier on the monorail overhead conveyor. The individual filament spools are also visually inspected in the spinning area. The second transport system then transports the filament spools to the rack area, where they are transferred to a rack conveyor system and stored in a suitable manner. The known technology has the disadvantage that it takes a lot of time and requires more equipment and control technology. The coordination of the two transport systems and the timely provision of a carrier for the loaded doffer are also problematic. This does not always ensure the automation of the handling system.
The object of the invention is to show a better and more efficient handling system for filament spools or doffs.

Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe mit den Merkmalen im Hauptanspruch.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Handhabungssystem wird die zeitraubende Vereinzelung der Filamentspulen und die Sichtkontrolle von der Transporteinrichtung bzw. dem Doffer wegverlagert. Die Transporteinrichtung wird dadurch entlastet. Außerdem hat die Transporteinrichtung eine mehrständige Aufnahme zum Handling und zum Transport mehrerer Doffs, die dann an eine der Vereinzelungsvorrichtung vorgeschaltete und ebenfalls mit einer mehrständigen Aufnahme versehene Übergabestation in einem Schub komplett übergeben werden können. Dadurch erhöht sich die Förder- und Leistungskapazität der Transporteinrichtung. Verringert werden außerdem die Fahrbewegungen der Transporteinrichtung trotz der gesteigerten Doff-Leistung.The invention solves this problem with the features in the main claim.
In the handling system according to the invention, the time-consuming separation of the filament spools and the visual inspection are shifted away from the transport device or the doffer. This relieves the transport device. In addition, the transport device has a multiple holder for handling and transporting several doffs, which can then be completely transferred in one go to a transfer station upstream of the separating device and also provided with a multiple holder. This increases the conveying and performance capacity of the transport facility. The travel movements of the transport device are also reduced despite the increased doff performance.

Insgesamt wird das Handhabungssystem wesentlich leistungsfähiger, schneller, kostengünstiger und wirtschaftlicher. Zudem vereinfachen sich die Übergabevorgänge der Filamentspulen bzw. Doffs und gegebenenfalls auch der Leerhülsen, was eine weniger komplexe Maschinentechnik erfordert. Insbesondere ist keine Überkopfübergabe mehr erforderlich.Overall, the handling system becomes essential more powerful, faster, cheaper and more economical. In addition, the Transfer processes of the filament spools or doffs and possibly also the empty tubes, which is less complex machine technology required. In particular is no overhead transfer required.

Die erfindungsgemäße Transporteinrichtung hat noch weitere Vorteile. Sie ist nicht mehr notwendigerweise auf eine Bewegungsbahn vor der Spinnmaschinenreihe begrenzt, sondern kann sich in einem wesentlich größeren Bereich und vorzugsweise auch außerhalb des Spinnbereichs bewegen. Insbesondere kann die einzelne Transporteinrichtung auch mehrere Spinnmaschinenreihen bedienen. Dies erlaubt es auch in Verbindung mit der erhöhten Aufnahme- und Transportkapazität mit weniger Geräten auszukommen. Zudem läßt sich die Transporteinrichtung an andere Bereiche der Spinnereianlage, z.B. eine Kräuseleinrichtung oder dgl. anbinden.The transport device according to the invention has still more Benefits. It is no longer necessarily on one Movement path in front of the row of spinning machines limited, but can be in a much larger area and preferably also move outside the spinning area. In particular, the individual transport device can also operate several rows of spinning machines. This allows it also in connection with the increased intake and Transport capacity using fewer devices. In addition can the transport device to other areas of the Spinning plant, e.g. a crimper or the like. tie up.

Konstruktiv kann die Transporteinrichtung beliebig ausgebildet sein. In der bevorzugten Ausführungsform handelt es sich um ein oder mehrere flurgebundene Fahrzeuge mit induktiver Steuerung und Fernbedienung oder um einen Hängeförderer. Das erfindungsgemäße Handhabungssystem kommt mit einem Transportsystem aus und braucht nicht mehr die Zweiteilung in maschinengebundenen Doffer und Einschienen-Hängebahn. Dadurch wird der konstruktive Aufwand wesentlich verringert. Die erfindungsgemäße Transporteinrichtung kann alle Fördervorgänge bis zur Übergabestation durchführen, was Zeit und Kosten spart.The transport device can be of any design be trained. In the preferred embodiment it is one or more floor-bound Vehicles with inductive control and remote control or around a overhead conveyor. The invention Handling system gets by with a transport system and no longer needs the division in machine-bound Doffer and monorail overhead conveyor. This will make the construction effort significantly reduced. The Transport device according to the invention can all Carry out conveying operations to the transfer station, what Saves time and money.

Von besonderem Vorteil ist die Verlagerung der zeitraubenden Vereinzelung der Filamentspulen des Doffs vom Spinnbereich in den Lagerbereich. Dort stehen in der Regel mehr Zeit und mehr Platz zur Verfügung. Außerdem läßt sich hier die Sichtkontrolle besser unterbringen und sogar bis an eine Stelle knapp vor der Einlagerung der Filamentspulen verlegen. Dadurch können alle bis zur Einlagerung etwa entstehenden Fehlereinflüsse berücksichtigt und gegebenenfalls korrigiert werden.The relocation of the time-consuming separation of the filament spools of the doff from the spinning area to the storage area. There are in the Usually more time and more space available. Moreover the visual inspection can be better accommodated here and even up to a point just before the storage of the Lay filament spools. This allows everyone to Storage of any errors that may arise be taken into account and corrected if necessary.

Die Übergabestation bildet vorzugsweise die Schnittstelle zwischen dem Spinnbereich und dem Lagerbereich. Sie ermöglicht es insbesondere, diese beiden Bereiche räumlich getrennt unterzubringen, z.B. in unterschiedlichen Stockwerken eines Fertigungsbetriebes. Zu diesem Zweck kann die Übergabevorrichtung mit einem eigenen Fördermittel gegebenenfalls auch mit ein oder mehreren Speicherplätzen ausgerüstet sein. Sie kann auch als Puffer zwischen Spinnbereich und Lagerbereich wirken. Aus maschinentechnischen Gründen und Kapazitätsgründen ist es nützlich, die Vereinzelungsvorrichtung in die Übergabestation zu integrieren.The transfer station preferably forms the interface between the spinning area and the storage area. she allows, in particular, these two areas spatially to accommodate separately, e.g. in different Floors of a manufacturing company. To this end can the transfer device with its own Funding may also include one or more Storage spaces must be equipped. It can also act as a buffer act between the spinning area and the storage area. Out mechanical engineering reasons and capacity reasons it is useful, the separating device in the Integrate transfer station.
