Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fadenklemme für eine Webmaschine und Webmaschine mit einer solchen Fadenklemme.The invention relates to a thread clamp for a Weaving machine and weaving machine with such Thread clamp.

Die Erfindung geht im Oberbegriff von einer Fadenklemme aus wie sie aus der CH-A-370 720 bekannt ist. Diese Fadenklemme weist wellenförmig ausgebildete Klemmflächen auf, wobei die Flächen, welche den Faden berühren bei nicht eingelegten Faden aufeinander liegen und genau zusammenpassen müssen. Diese Fadenklemme ist U-förmig und die Klemmkraft wird nur durch die Elastizität der Schenkel erzeugt. Durch die Erhöhungen und Vertiefungen soll eine mehrfache Umschlingung oder eine mehrfache Verdickung und Verdünnung des Fadens ermöglicht werden.The invention is based on a thread clamp in the preamble from as known from CH-A-370 720. This Thread clamp has wave-shaped clamping surfaces on, the surfaces touching the thread at not inserted thread lie on each other and exactly have to match. This thread clamp is U-shaped and the clamping force is only due to the elasticity of the Leg generated. Through the elevations and depressions should be a multiple loop or a multiple Thickening and thinning of the thread are made possible.

Als nachteilig erweist sich, dass die Klemmkraft dieser Fadenklemme begrenzt und deren Anwendung hierdurch eingeschränkt ist. Insbesondere technische Garne aus Kunststoff und Metall mit grösseren Fadendicken werden in einer mehr oder weniger gestreckten Lage und im wesentlichen nur durch Reibung gehalten. Aufgrund der extrem hohen Anfangsbeschleunigung beim Abschuss, z.B. eines die Fadenklemme aufnehmenden Fadenträgers, treten Fehler bei der Schusseintragung auf. It turns out to be disadvantageous that the clamping force of this Thread clamp limited and their use thereby is restricted. Especially technical yarns Plastic and metal with larger thread thicknesses are in a more or less stretched location and in essentially held only by friction. Due to the extremely high initial acceleration when firing, e.g. of a thread carrier receiving the thread clamp Failed to register shot.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde eine Fadenklemme zu verbessern.The invention has for its object a thread clamp to improve.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with the characterizing features of claim 1 solved.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielbaren Vorteile sind im wesentlichen darin zu sehen, dass durch die Zuordnung der Erhöhungen und Vertiefungen ein Freiraum für den Faden geschaffen wird und dieser einer Knickwirkung ausgesetzt ist und dass die Kante eine Kerbwirkung zur Folge hat, so dass der Faden sicher gehalten ist.The advantages achievable with the invention are in essential to see that by assigning the Raises and depressions leave space for the thread is created and this is subject to a buckling effect and that the edge has a notch effect, so that the thread is held securely.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.Advantageous embodiments of the invention result from the dependent claims.

Es wird auf die Figuren 1 bis 5 Bezug genommen, die unterschiedliche Ausführungen von Klemmabschnitten im grösseren Massstab zeigen. Bei den nachfolgend beschriebenen Fadenklemmen handelt es sich um Fadenklemmen für ein Greiferprojektil einer Projektilwebmaschine. Derartige Fadenklemmen sind U-förmig ausgebildet und weisen an freien Ende der Schenkel einen Klemmabschnitt auf. Die Fig.1 zeigt eine bevorzugte Ausführung des Klemmabschnittes. Der Klemmabschnitt wird von Erhöhungen 2 und Vertiefungen 3 gebildet, die quer zur Einlegerichtung des von der Fadenklemme festzuhaltenden Fadens 4 verlaufen. Die Erhöhungen sind den Vertiefungen gegenüberliegend angeordnet und so ausgebildet, dass bei geschlossener Fadenklemme ein Freiraum 5 vorhanden ist. Die Erhöhungen weisen einen sägezahnartigen Querschnitt auf, wobei eine Flanke 6 gerade und die andere Flanke 7 sinusförmig ausgebildet ist. Dadurch wird eine Kante 8 gebildet. Die Erhöhungen 2 können den gleichen Querschnitt oder für bestimmte Fadenarten vom Eintritt bis zum Austritt einen unterschiedlichen Querschnitt aufweisen.Reference is made to FIGS. 1 to 5, which different versions of clamping sections in show larger scale. The following described thread clamps are Thread clamps for a gripper projectile Projectile. Such thread clamps are U-shaped trained and point at the free end of the legs a clamping section. 1 shows a preferred one Execution of the clamping section. The clamping section is formed by elevations 2 and depressions 3, the transverse for the direction of insertion of the thread clamp to be held thread 4. The increases are arranged opposite the depressions and so trained that with the thread clamp closed Free space 5 is available. The increases indicate one sawtooth-like cross-section, with a flank 6 straight and the other edge 7 is sinusoidal is. An edge 8 is thereby formed. The increases 2 can be the same cross section or for certain Thread types from entry to exit one have different cross-sections.

Die in den Figuren 2 bis 5 dargestellten Klemmabschnitte unterscheiden sich von dem gemäss Fig.1 durch die Querschnittform der Erhöhungen und Vertiefungen.The clamping sections shown in Figures 2 to 5 differ from that according to Fig.1 by the Cross-sectional shape of the elevations and depressions.

Aufgrund der Zuordnung der Erhöhungen und Vertiefungen sowie der Kante an den Erhöhungen entsteht einerseits ein Freiraum für den Faden und andererseits wird eine Knickwirkung und Kerbwirkung am Faden erzielt, mittels welchen der Faden sicher gehalten wird.Due to the assignment of the increases and decreases as well as the edge on the ridges on the one hand Free space for the thread and on the other hand becomes one Kink effect and notch effect achieved on the thread, by means of which the thread is held securely.

Wie die Figuren 6a,6b und 7 zeigen, kann die Erhöhung mit einer Kerbe 9 versehen sein. Die Kerben sind in der Einlegerichtung des von der Fadenklemme festzuhaltenden Fadens 4 auf einer Linie liegend im Scheitel der Erhöhung ausgebildet. Anstelle der Kerbe kann auch eine Mulde vorgesehen werden. Mit dieser Massnahme kann in vorteilhafter Weise zusätzlich zur Knickwirkung und/oder Kerbwirkung eine Keilwirkung erzeugt werden. Die einzelnen Kerben können seitlich versetzt bezüglich der genannten Einlegerichtung in den Erhöhungen ausgebildet sein. Hiermit kann gleichzeitig eine Kulierwirkung erreicht werden, um das Halten eines Fadens weiter zu verbessern.As FIGS. 6a, 6b and 7 show, the increase can be done with be provided with a notch 9. The notches are in the Direction of insertion of the to be held by the thread clamp Thread 4 lying on a line at the apex of the elevation educated. Instead of the notch, a trough can also be used be provided. With this measure, in advantageously in addition to the buckling effect and / or Notch effect a wedge effect can be generated. The individual notches can be offset laterally with respect to the mentioned insertion direction formed in the ridges his. This can also have a wiping effect be achieved to keep holding a thread improve.

Die Fig.8 zeigt einen Klemmabschnitt einer sechsten Ausführung, die an einem Schenkel 10 der Fadenklemme befestigt ist. Bei dieser Ausführung sind die Erhöhungen 11 als Platten ausgebildet, die im Abstand zueinander auf einer Grundplatte 12 befestigt sind. Die Platten 11 sind im wesentlichen dreieckig und so einander zugeordnet, dass bei geschlossener Klemme zwischen den zwei Klemmabschnitten ein zur Ausführung mit Kerben analoger Durchlass für einen Faden gebildet wird.8 shows a clamping section of a sixth Execution on a leg 10 of the thread clamp is attached. In this version, the increases 11 designed as plates that are spaced apart a base plate 12 are attached. The plates 11 are essentially triangular and so associated with each other, that when the clamp is closed between the two Clamping sections an analog to the version with notches Passage for a thread is formed.

Es wird auf die Figuren 9 und 10 Bezug genommen. Die dargestellten Ausführungen unterscheiden sich von den vorstehend beschriebenen im wesentlichen dadurch, dass die Erhöhungen 15 und Vertiefungen einander gegenüberliegend ausgebildet sind und dass die einzeln Erhöhungen 15 oder der ganze Klemmabschnitt 17 elastisch verformbar sind. Hierzu sind Sollbiegestellen an der Wurzel der einzelnen Erhöhungen 15 oder zwischen dem Klemmabschnitt und den Schenkeln der Fadenklemme vorgesehen. In Analogie zu den vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungen können in den Erhöhungen Kerben ausgebildet werden. Die Ausführung nach den Figuren 9 und 10 ist nicht Gegenstand der Erfindung. Es wird jedoch darauf hingewiesen, dass die Erhöhungen und Vertiefungen so ausgebildet werden können, dass die Erhöhungen des einen Klemmabschnittes in die Vertiefungen des anderen Klemmabschnittes eingreifen.Reference is made to FIGS. 9 and 10. The shown versions differ from the described above essentially in that the ridges 15 and depressions each other are formed opposite and that the individually Elevations 15 or the entire clamping section 17 elastic are deformable. For this purpose, predetermined bending points are on the root of each elevation 15 or between that Clamping section and the legs of the thread clamp intended. In analogy to those described above Designs may have notches in the ridges be formed. The embodiment according to FIGS. 9 and 10 is not the subject of the invention. However, it should be noted that the ups and downs like that can be trained that the increases of one Clamping section in the recesses of the other Intervene in the clamping section.

Die vorstehend beschriebenen Fadenklemmen können als Fadengeberklemmen und Projektilklemmen in Projektilwebmaschinen als auch als Greiferklemmen in Greiferwebmaschinen angewendet werden.The thread clamps described above can be used as Thread take-up clamps and projectile clamps in Projectile weaving machines as well as rapier clamps in Rapier weaving machines are used.
