Abstract
Fadenklemmvorrichtung, insbesondere für Figurschußfäden (1) bei Jacquardmaschinen (4). Figurschußfäden (1), z.B. an Jacquard-Webmaschinen (4) werden nur entsprechend der figürlichen Ausgestaltung des Gewebes von Zeit zu Zeit eingetragen. Während der Zeit des Stillstandes werden die Figurschußfäden (1) unter Spannung gehalten und entsprechend der Anforderung freigegeben. Bekannt sind dazu Fadenklemmvorrichtungen, die durch Fadenspannungsunterschiede im Figurschußfaden gesteuert sind. Zur Erzielung eines gleichmäßigeren Gewebeaufbaus und zur Vermeidung von Beschädigungen der Figurschußfäden (1) durch die Klemmvorrichtung wird vorgeschlagen, die Fadenklemmvorrichtung über die Harnischschnur (3) bzw. über die zugeordnete Figurschußfadenlitze (2) zu steuern. <IMAGE>Thread clamping device, in particular for figure weft threads (1) in jacquard machines (4). Figure weft threads (1), e.g. Jacquard weaving machines (4) are only entered from time to time in accordance with the figurative design of the fabric. During the time of standstill, the figure weft threads (1) are kept under tension and released according to the requirement. Thread clamping devices are known for this purpose, which are controlled by thread tension differences in the figure weft thread. In order to achieve a more even fabric structure and to avoid damage to the figure weft threads (1) by the clamping device, it is proposed to control the thread clamping device via the harness cord (3) or via the associated figure weft strand (2). <IMAGE>
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fadenklemmvorrichtung, insbesondere für Figurschußfäden bei Jacquardmaschinen.The invention relates to a thread clamping device, in particular for figure weft threads in jacquard machines.
Diese Figurschußfäden, wie sie z.B. an Jacquard-Webmaschinen vorkommen, werden nur entsprechend der figürlichen Ausgestaltung des Gewebes von Zeit zu Zeit eingetragen. Während der Zeit des Stillstandes muß jedoch der Figurschußfaden unter Spannung gehalten werden und darf lediglich auf Anforderung freigegeben werden.These figure weft threads, e.g. on jacquard weaving machines occur only according to the figurative design of the tissue entered from time to time. During the time of However, the figure weft must stand still under tension be kept and may only be released on request become.
Bei den bislang bekannten derartigen Klemmvorrichtungen für die Figurschußfäden ist eine Fadenführung so angeordnet, daß beim Abziehen von Faden die Klemmeinrichtung unwirksam und beim Nachlassen der Fadenspannung des Figurschußfadens um einen vorbestimmten Betrag wirksam ist. Diese aufgrund der Fadenspannungsunterschiede des Figurschußfadens wirkende Klemmvorrichtung führt zu einer starken mechanischen Beanspruchung des Figurschußfadens. Die Erfahrung zeigt weiterhin, daß durch die auftretenden unterschiedlichen Fadenspannungen im Figurschußfaden das hergestellte Gewebe ungleichmäßig ist, z.B. einen ungleichen Kantenaufbau aufweist.In the previously known such clamping devices for Figure weft threads is arranged so that when Pulling out thread the clamping device ineffective and when Relief of the tension of the figure weft by one predetermined amount is effective. This due to the Differences in tension of the figure weft acting Clamping device leads to a strong mechanical Stress on the figure weft. Experience shows further that by the occurring different Thread tensions in the figure weft thread the fabric produced is uneven, e.g. has an uneven edge structure.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht daher darin, eine Fadenklemmvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, die bei geringer mechanischer Belastung des Figurschußfadens eine genaue Einführung des Figurschußfadens bei gleichbleibender Spannung gewährleistet.The object of the invention is therefore a Propose thread clamping device of the type mentioned at the outset, the one with low mechanical load on the figure weft exact introduction of the figure weft thread with the same Tension guaranteed.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß die Fadenklemmvorrichtung an der zugeordneten Figurschußfadenlitze positiv gesteuert ist. Diese kann beispielhaft über die Harnischschnur von der Jacquardmaschine erfolgen, aber auch durch andere Steuerimpulse.This object is achieved in that the thread clamping device is positively controlled on the associated figure weft. This can be exemplified by the harness cord from the Jacquard machine take place, but also by other control impulses.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist die Klemmvorrichtung eine federbelastete Klemmplatte zum Festlegen des Figurschußfadens auf, die über einen Seilzug oder dergleichen mit der Harnischschnur der zugeordneten Figurschußfadenlitze verbunden ist. Vorteilhaft wirkt die Klemmplatte mit einem schwenkbaren Hebel zusammen, dessen eines Ende über einen Seilzug oder dergleichen mit der Harnischschnur der zugeordneten Figurschußfadenlitze verbunden ist. In an advantageous embodiment, the Clamping device a spring-loaded clamping plate for fixing of the figure weft on a cable or the like with the harness cord of the assigned figure weft strand connected is. The clamping plate works with one pivoting lever together, one end of which is pulled by a cable or the like with the harness cord of the assigned Figure weft strand is connected.
Bei einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist die Klemmvorrichtung eine federbelastete Klemmplatte zum Festlegen des Figurschußfadens auf, die durch einen Elektromagneten in Freigabestellung bewegbar ist, wobei der Elektromagnet durch die elektronische Steuerung der Harnischschnur der zugeordneten Figurschußfadenlitze gesteuert ist.In another advantageous embodiment, the Clamping device a spring-loaded clamping plate for fixing of the figure weft, which by an electromagnet in Release position is movable, the electromagnet through the electronic control of the harness cord of the assigned Figure weft strand is controlled.

- an electronically operated thread clamping device in the clamping position and
- Fig. 4
- the thread clamping device of FIG. 3 in the release position.
Nach den Figuren 1 bis 4 wird ein Figurschußfaden 1 in bekannter
Weise über eine Figurschußfadenlitze 2 eingeführt. Die
Figurschußfadenlitze 2 wird in bekannter Weise über eine
Harnischschnur 3 einer Jacquardmaschine 4 bewegt, wobei die
Steuerung der Harnischschnur 3 in der Regel auf elektronische
Weise erfolgt.According to Figures 1 to 4, a
Nach den Figuren 1 bis 4 besteht die Klemmvorrichtung aus einer
federbelasteten Klemmplatte 5, die mit einer Gegendruckplatte 6
zusammenwirkt. According to Figures 1 to 4, the clamping device consists of a
spring-loaded
Wie die Figuren 1 bis 3 zeigen, preßt die federbelastete
Klemmplatte 5 in Klemmstellung den Figurschußfaden 1 auf die
Gegendruckplatte 6, so daß der Figurschußfaden 1 gehalten ist.As Figures 1 to 3 show, the spring-loaded
Wie die Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen, ist mit der federbelasteten
Klemmplatte 5 ein schwenkbarer Hebel 7 verbunden, dessen eines
Ende über einen Seilzug 8 mit der Harnischschnur 3 der
zugeordneten Figurschußfadenlitze 2 verbunden ist. Wird die
Harnischschnur 3 von der Jacquardmaschine angesteuert und so der
Seilzung 8 gezogen, so wird der Hebel 7 gleichfalls in die in
Fig. 2 dargestellte Stellung bewegt, so daß der Figurschußfaden 1
freigegeben ist.As shown in Figures 1 and 2, is with the spring-loaded
Bei der Ausführungsform der Klemmvorrichtung nach den Figuren 3
und 4 ist die Klemmplatte 5 mit einem Elektromagneten 9
verbunden, der durch den Steuerungsimpuls der Jacquardmaschine 4
für die Harnischschnur 3 der zugeordneten Figurschußfadenlitze 2
gesteuert ist.In the embodiment of the clamping device according to FIGS. 3
and 4 is the
Die vorgeschlagene Lösung hat den Vorteil, daß dann, wenn die
Figurschußfadenlitze 2 über die zugeordnete Harnischschnur 3
durch die Jacquardmaschine betätigt wird, gleichzeitig auch die
Klemmvorrichtung betätigt wird und freigegeben wird, so daß der
Figurschußfaden 1 ungehindert ohne die Fadenspannung zu verändern
in das Gewebe eintreten kann. Dies ist nicht nur für einen
Eintragsschuß möglich, sondern auch für mehrere Schußeintragungen
hintereinander. Da die Steuerung der erfindungsgemäßen
Klemmvorrichtung unabhängig von der Fadenspannungsveränderung des
Figurschußfadens 1 ist, bleibt die vorgegebene Fadenspannung
stets gleich, so daß ein gleichmäßiger Gewebeaufbau, insbesondere
der Kanten, gewährleistet ist.The proposed solution has the advantage that if the
