Definitions

  • the invention relates to methods for compensating the change in elongation or tension in a warp and weaving machine to carry out the method according to the features the preamble of claims 1 and 6.
  • the weaving chain is subject to different warp tension fluctuations in the course of the fabric formation, which are a maximum value when the shed is open for the purpose of weft thread insertion and picking and a minimum value when changing the shed.
  • This alternating load in the warp leads to a relatively high warp thread stress, which is the cause of warp thread breaks.
  • the low warp tension that occurs when changing the shed can impair the reopening of the shed due to the warping of warp threads.
  • These brackets are also frequently the cause of warp thread breaks and, in the case of weaving machines with pneumatic weft thread insertion, the cause of so-called weft folds.
  • the fabric edges When manufacturing a fabric in which, for example, the fabric edges have a weave different from the rest of the fabric, the problem of load changes in the chain becomes even clearer. If, for example, the fabric edges are to have a 2/2 weave in order to produce a stable fabric edge, and the fabric itself should have a plain weave, i.e. a 1/1 weave, then the relevant edge warp threads are between the change of subject, that is between the open subject and the Closed shed, exposed to greater warp tension fluctuations than the other warp threads. In the event of a change of subject, the above-mentioned phenomena which disrupt the weaving process occur in particular in the relevant warp threads of the warp.
  • a weaving machine in which the match tree is set up to carry out a certain translational movement in order to compensate for the tension variations in the warp threads guided over the match tree caused by the successive change of subject.
  • an auxiliary guide for a number of edge warp threads is provided in the vicinity of at least one end of the match tree, which can carry out a translational movement independently of the match tree under the influence of an adjustable load acting thereon.
  • This auxiliary device can easily follow the successive change of subject, so that the tension fluctuations in the relevant warp threads can be considerably reduced. It is obvious that the tension compensation device assigned to the match tree and the auxiliary device assigned to the edge warp threads represent a not inconsiderable cost factor for the manufacturer of the weaving machine.
  • the match beam which is rotatably mounted in a weaving machine, is equipped with at least one first module in such a way that this is adjusted in rhythm with the change of subject about its longitudinal center axis and the module compensates for the lower warp thread tension.
  • the module of the match tree consists of at least one first component which can be arranged on the lateral surface and over the working width of the match tree and forms a cam. When changing the shed, the module is effective on the warp in order to bring about elongation or tension compensation, which is a weave that is uniform across the width of the weave.
  • the first cam-like module arranged on the match tree can be connected to the lateral surface of the match tree several times, for example via screw connections.
  • the first module has an arcuate recess with a radius r 1 , which corresponds to the diameter radius of the match tree, while the free outer surface of the module has a radius r 2 that differs from the radius r 1 .
  • the match tree is rotatably received on both sides with its bearing journals in a bearing in a manner known per se and, for the transmission of an oscillating movement resulting from the formation of tissue, is arranged in a rotationally fixed manner with at least one near a bearing journal of the match tree Lever arm connected. Means act on the lever arm, which transmit the aforementioned oscillating movement from a drive means of the weaving machine to the match tree.
  • the match tree is positively controlled in this case.
  • the match tree can be spring loaded.
  • second or third modules are provided to connect with the match tree, via which modules the relevant warp threads are guided as a separate warp thread group.
  • Such a second or third module encompasses the same by pushing it onto the first module and is operatively connected via its inner contour to the first module in a rotationally fixed manner.
  • an uncontrolled oscillating movement is optionally provided for the positively controlled, oscillating movement about the longitudinal center axis of the modular match tree, the positively controlled movement always being dominant over the uncontrolled movement.
  • the match tree is not to be operated in a positively controlled manner when weaving a specific article, a decoupling of the forced control from the modular match tree is carried out in a simple manner. The match tree is then only under the action of at least one spring. On the other hand, if the match tree is to perform a positively controlled, oscillating movement, the match tree can also be spring-loaded, but the forced control is dominant over the spring load.
  • FIGS. 1 to 5 show the parts of a weaving machine that relate directly to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows a warp beam 1 wound with a plurality of warp thread groups 3a, 3b, 3c, which is rotatably supported in the weaving machine in the direction of rotation indicated by the arrow 8 about its longitudinal central axis 1a and a match beam 2 which is rotatably supported in the weaving machine about its longitudinal central axis 2a is and has modular structures, hereinafter referred to as modules 4,5,6.
  • the match tree 2 carries the modules 4, 5 and 6 over its working width L, best seen in FIG. 3.
  • modules 5 and 6 each lead a first warp thread group 3a or 3c in the direction of the heald frames, not shown, to form a stable fabric edge, the fabric edge having, for example, a 2/2 weave, while a second warp thread group 3b extends over the outer surface 2b of the match tree 2 is guided in the direction of the heald frames, not shown.
  • the warp threads of the first warp thread group 3a and 3c are now guided with a much larger wrap angle via the modules 5 and 6 in the direction of the heald frames and are accordingly pre-tensioned, i.e. still have a sufficiently high warp tension when changing the shed, the warp tension in the warp threads changes when the shed is changed the second warp thread group 3b considerably.
  • the second warp thread group 3b experiences a compensation of the warp tension synchronously by the module 4 of the match tree 2.
  • the match tree 2 is connected in a manner known per se via a movement transmission mechanism 9 to an eccentric 10 arranged on the main shaft 7. With each change of subject, the desired warp thread tension in the warp thread group 3b is thus largely maintained via the module 4.
  • the motion transmission mechanism 9 consists of a first lever arm 9a connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the match tree 2, a pivotably mounted double lever 9b, the first lever arm 9b 'of which is connected to the eccentric 10 arranged on the main shaft 7 and the second lever arm 9b''of which the lever 9a , 9b connecting coupling 9c is articulated.
  • Figure 3 shows the match tree 2 with the modules 4,5,6 according to the invention, the first Module 4 on the lateral surface 2b of the match tree 2 over its working width L is arranged.
  • the connection of the module 4 to the lateral surface 2b can be in different ways. The way of connection is not an issue the invention.
  • the arrangement of the module 4 on the match tree 2 is clearly shown in Figure 4. It is important here that the free lateral surface 4a of the module 4 has a radius r 2 which is significantly smaller than the radius r 1 of the match tree diameter.
  • the module 4 is thereby designed in the manner of a cam which is connected to the match tree 2 on the lateral surface 2b.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 also show a second and third module 5, 6 or a module 5, which is designed in the manner of a segment cut out of a closed U-profile ring.
  • the inner lateral surface of the modules 5, 6 has a contour which corresponds to the outer contour which arises from the modular connection of the match tree 2 to the module 4.
  • the further modules 5, 6 are non-rotatably connected to the module 4. It goes without saying that the modules 5 and 6 can be secured against an axial displacement on the match tree 2.
  • FIG. 1 In the present exemplary embodiment according to FIG.
  • a first or a second group of edge warp threads 3a or 3b are taken up, which do not require an elongation or warp tension compensation, for example due to the type of weave provided for the fabric edge area, while the between the modules 5,6 over the match tree 2 guided warp thread group 3b requires such compensation when changing the subject.
  • the design of the u-profile-like warp thread guide of the modules 5, 6 concerned can be left to the person skilled in the art. It is therefore essential to the invention that a match tree 2 with modular structures 4, 5, 6 has been created which, when the subject is changed, realizes elongation and tension compensation in at least the warp thread group 3b.
  • FIG. 6 shows a warp beam 1 wound with a plurality of warp thread groups 3a, 3b, which is rotatably supported in the weaving machine in the direction of rotation indicated by the arrow 8, and a match beam 2, which is likewise rotatably supported in the weaving machine about its longitudinal center axis 2a.
  • the match tree has 2 modular structures 4,5.
  • a first warp thread group 3a is guided over the module 5, while a second warp thread group 3b is guided over a section of the lateral surface of the match tree 2 in the direction of the heald frames, not shown.
  • the warp threads of the first warp thread group 3a which can be, for example, edge warp threads of a fabric to be produced, are passed over the module 5 with a much larger wrap angle and are accordingly pretensioned, i.e. still have sufficient warp tension when changing the shed, the warp tension in the warp threads changes when the shed is changed the second warp thread group 3b considerably.
  • the second warp thread group 3b experiences a compensation of the warp tension synchronously by the module 4 of the match tree 2.
  • the match tree 2 is connected in a manner known per se either via a motion transmission mechanism 9 to an eccentric 10 arranged on the main shaft 7 or the match tree 2 is operatively connected to at least one spring 11 compensating the warp tension.
  • the desired warp tension in the warp thread group 3b is largely maintained with each change of subject via the module 4.
  • the modularly designed match tree 2 is available according to the invention both with the means 7, 9, 10 for executing a positively controlled oscillating movement about its longitudinal central axis 2a and with at least one means 11 Execution of an uncontrolled oscillating movement in operative connection, the means used for the forced control of the match tree 2 suppressing in their effect the means for uncontrolled application of the match tree. If the match tree 2 is to be loaded only by the uncontrolled means, that is to say by the at least one spring 11, then the means for positive control are decoupled from the match tree 2 in a simple manner.
