Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Sägezahndraht zur Herstellung einer Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnitur für die Verarbeitung von Textilfasern, insbesondere zur Herstellung einer Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnitur für den Abnehmer einer Krempelmaschine mit einer Mehrzahl von in Längsrichtung des Drahtes hintereinander angeordneten Zähnen, von denen jeder eine sich ausgehend von einem Zahngrund in Richtung auf eine Zahnspitze erstreckende Zahnbrust und einen sich ausgehend von der Zahnspitze in Richtung auf den folgenden Zahngrund erstreckenden Zahnrücken aufweist. The invention relates to a sawtooth wire for production a sawtooth all-steel set for processing Textile fibers, in particular for the production of a sawtooth all-steel set for the customer of a carding machine with a plurality of one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the wire arranged teeth, each one starting from a tooth base extending towards a tooth tip Toothbrush and one starting from the tip of the tooth towards tooth back extending to the following tooth base.
Eine Krempelmaschine wird bei der Herstellung von Garnen zur Ausrichtung und Reinigung der die Garne bildenden Textilfasern eingesetzt. Dazu werden die Textilfasern mit Hilfe einer Zuführwalze einem sog. Tambour vorgelegt. Dabei handelt es sich um ein walzenförmiges Element, welches auf seiner Mantelfläche mit einer Häkchengarnitur oder Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnitur versehen ist und um die Walzenachse gedreht wird. Die Tambourgarnitur bewirkt zusammen mit über die Mantelfläche des Tambours verteilt angeordneten Deckelstäben im Verlauf der Drehung des Tambours eine Ausrichtung und Reinigung der zugeführten Textilfasern. Nach diesem Vorgang wird das damit erhaltene Faservlies mit Hilfe von sog. Abnehmerwalzen von dem Tambour entfernt und der weiteren Verarbeitung zugeführt. Üblicherweise weisen die Abnehmerwalzen im Bereich ihrer Mantelfläche ebenfalls eine Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnitur auf, die im Verlauf der Drehung der Abnehmerwalzen in das von dem Tambour mitgeführte Faservlies eingreift und dieses von dem Tambour abzieht.A carding machine is used in the manufacture of yarns for aligning and cleaning the textile fibers forming the yarns used. To do this, use the textile fibers submitted to a feed roller a so-called drum. Acting it is a roller-shaped element, which on its outer surface with a tick set or sawtooth all-steel set is provided and is rotated about the roller axis. The Drum set together with over the surface of the Drumsticks arranged in the course of the Rotation of the spool aligns and cleans the feed Textile fibers. After this process, the so obtained Nonwoven with the help of so-called pickup rollers from the Drum removed and sent for further processing. Usually point the pickup rollers in the area of their lateral surface also a sawtooth all-steel set on the Course of the rotation of the take-off rollers in that of the drum entrained fiber fleece engages and this from the drum withdraws.
Im besonderen bei der Bearbeitung besonders feintitriger Fasern aus natürlichen oder synthetischen Polymeren hat es sich gezeigt, daß die Übergabe des Faservlieses von dem Tambour auf die Abnehmerwalze Schwierigkeiten bereitet. Das führt zu einer Füllung der Tambourgarnitur mit nicht abgenommenem Fasermaterial, welche eine mangelhafte Ausrichtung und Reinigung der zugeführten Textilfasern mit dem Tambour zum Ergebnis hat.Especially when editing particularly fine titers It has fibers made from natural or synthetic polymers it has been shown that the transfer of the nonwoven from the drum Difficulties on the take-off roller. Leading to fill the drum set with not removed Fiber material, which is poor alignment and cleaning of the supplied textile fibers with the reel to the result Has.
Weiter hat es sich gezeigt, daß sich das von der Abnehmerwalze abgenommene Faservlies im besonderen bei höheren Produktionsgewichten frühzeitig von der Abnehmerwalze löst, was zu Problemen bei der Weiterverarbeitung des Fasermaterials führen kann. It has also been shown that this is from the take-off roller Removed nonwoven in particular with higher production weights early on from the take-off roller what problems with the further processing of the fiber material can lead.
Zur Behebung dieser Probleme wurde bereits vorgeschlagen, die Sägezähne der Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnituren der Abnehmerwalzen mit seitlichen Rilleneinwalzungen zu versehen. Das kann beispielsweise durch einen Kaltverformungsprozeß im Verlauf der Drahtherstellung erfolgen, wobei die Sägezähne aus bereits mit den Rilleneinwalzungen versehenen Blattabschnitten eines Drahtes gestanzt werden. Mit Hilfe dieser Rilleneinwalzungen wird auch bei besonders feintitrigen Fasern aus natürlichen und synthetischen Polymeren eine größere Haftung an der Zahnflanke erreicht. Dadurch wird die Übergabe des Faservlieses vom Tambour auf die Abnehmerwalze dahingehend positiv beeinflußt, daß die Übergabe schneller erfolgt und eine ansonsten mögliche Füllung der Tambourgarnitur vermieden wird. Weiter hat es sich gezeigt, daß diese seitlichen Rilleneinwalzungen aufgrund der damit erreichten größeren Haftung der Fasern an der Zahnflanke eine frühzeitige Lösung des Faservlieses von der Abnehmerwalze hemmen.To address these issues, it has already been suggested the saw teeth of the saw tooth all-steel sets of the take-off rollers to be provided with groove grooves on the side. The can, for example, by a cold forming process in the course the wire production take place, whereby the saw teeth already provided with the grooved sheet sections of a wire are punched. With the help of these grooved rolls is also made of natural fine-titer fibers and synthetic polymers have greater adhesion to the Tooth flank reached. This will transfer the nonwoven positively influenced by the reel on the take-off roller, that the transfer takes place faster and an otherwise possible filling of the drum set is avoided. Further it has been shown that these lateral grooves due to the greater adhesion of the fibers on the tooth flank an early release of the nonwoven from inhibit the take-off roller.
Es hat sich jedoch gezeigt, daß im besonderen bei Hochleistungskarden mit Produktionsleistungen von 80 kg oder mehr bei den damit erreichten hohen Umfangsgeschwindigkeiten des Abnehmers trotz der die Haltekraft fördernden Rilleneinwalzungen in den Zahnflanken eine frühzeitige Ablösung des Faservlieses von dem Abnehmer auftritt.However, it has been shown that in particular High performance cards with production capacities of 80 kg or more with the high peripheral speeds achieved with it of the customer in spite of the grooved grooves which promote the holding force early detachment of the nonwoven in the tooth flanks occurs by the customer.
Angesichts dieser Probleme im Stand der Technik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Sägezahndraht bereitzustellen, der die Herstellung einer Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnitur für den Abnehmer einer Krempelmaschine ermöglicht, mit der eine frühzeitige Lösung des Faservlieses zuverlässig vermieden werden kann. Given these problems in the prior art the present invention has for its object a sawtooth wire to provide the manufacture of a sawtooth all-steel set enables the purchaser of a carding machine, with the early solution of the nonwoven reliably can be avoided.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Weiterbildung der bekannten Sägezahndrähte gelöst, die im wesentlichen dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß der Zahnrücken mindestens eines der Zähne des Sägezahndrahtes mindestens einen in Richtung auf den Zahngrund in einen konkaven Abschnitt übergehenden konvexen Abschnitt aufweist.According to the invention, this task is achieved through further training the known sawtooth wires solved, which essentially is characterized in that the tooth back at least one of the teeth of the sawtooth wire at least one in the direction merging into a concave section on the tooth base has convex section.
Dabei wird durch den Ausdruck "konkaver Abschnitt" ein Abschnitt des Zahnrückens bezeichnet, dessen aufeinanderfolgende Punkte nur durch außerhalb der Sägezähne verlaufende Geraden miteinander verbunden werden können, während durch den Ausdruck konvexer Abschnitt solche Randverläufe bezeichnet werden, deren aufeinanderfolgende Punkte durch innerhalb der Zahnflanken verlaufende Geraden miteinander verbunden werden können.The expression "concave section" is used Section of the tooth back designated, its successive Points only through straight lines running outside the saw teeth can be connected to each other while by the Expression of convex section denotes such marginal courses the successive points of which are within the Straight lines of tooth flanks are connected to each other can.
Bei den erfindungsgemäßen Sägezahndrähten wird durch den Übergang des konvexen Abschnittes in den konkaven Abschnitt im Bereich der Zahnrücken ein Widerlager für die von dem Abnehmer erfaßten Fasern bereitgestellt, mit dessen Hilfe eine frühzeitige Ablösung der Fasern zuverlässig verhindert werden kann, so daß auch bei hohen Produktionsgeschwindigkeiten ein störungsfreier Betrieb der Krempelmaschine ermöglicht wird.In the sawtooth wires according to the invention is by the Transition of the convex section into the concave section in the Area of the tooth back an abutment for that of the customer provided fibers provided, with the help of an early Detachment of the fibers can be reliably prevented so that even at high production speeds a trouble-free Operation of the carding machine is made possible.
Wenngleich auch daran gedacht ist, dieses Widerlager durch eine Einbuchtung im Verlauf des Zahnrückens bereitzustellen, bei der ein konkaver Abschnitt zwischen zwei konvexen Abschnitten des Zahnrückens angeordnet ist, hat es sich als besonders günstig erwiesen, wenn dieses Widerlager durch einen Vorsprung bzw. einen Nocken im Bereich des Zahnrückens hervorgebracht wird, bei dem ein einen Scheitel des Vorsprungs bzw. des Nockens bildender konvexer Abschnitt zwischen zwei konkaven Abschnitten angeordnet ist. Although it is also thought of, this abutment to be provided by an indentation in the course of the tooth back, where a concave section between two convex Sections of the tooth back is arranged, it has proven to be proven particularly favorable if this abutment by a Projection or a cam in the area of the tooth back in which a vertex of the projection or the convex portion of the cam between two concaves Sections is arranged.
Eine besonders hohe Rückhaltekraft kann erreicht werden, wenn der Zahnrücken mindestens eines der Zähne zum Erhalt einer Anzahl von im Verlauf des Zahnrückens aufeinanderfolgender Einbuchtungen und/oder Vorsprüngen bzw. Nocken eine Mehrzahl von jeweils in einen konkaven Abschnitt übergehenden konvexen Abschnitten aufweist.A particularly high retention force can be achieved if the back of the tooth preserves at least one of the teeth a number of successive in the course of the tooth back Indentations and / or projections or cams a plurality of each convex into a concave section Has sections.
Im Hinblick auf die Tatsache, daß die Sägezahn-Ganzstahlgarnituren des Abnehmers üblicherweise im Bereich der einzelnen Zahnspitzen in das in dem Tambour mitgeführte Faservlies eingreifen, hat es sich zum Erhalt einer ausreichenden Rückhaltekraft als besonders günstig erwiesen, wenn mindestens einer der konvexen Abschnitte in der an die Zahnspitze angrenzenden oberen Hälfte des Zahnrückens vorzugsweise im oberen Drittel, besonders bevorzugt im oberen Viertel des Zahnrückens angeordnet ist.In view of the fact that the sawtooth all-steel fittings of the customer usually in the area of individual tooth tips in the fiber fleece carried in the drum intervene, it has been sufficient to maintain Retention force proved to be particularly favorable if at least one of the convex sections in the to the tooth tip adjacent upper half of the tooth back preferably in upper third, particularly preferably in the upper quarter of the Tooth back is arranged.
Wenngleich sowohl der konkave Abschnitt als auch der konvexe Abschnitt in Form von Polygonzügen aus geradlinig verlaufenden Randabschnitten bereitgestellt werden kann, hat es sich im Hinblick auf den Erhalt einer zufriedenstellenden Rückhaltekraft unter gleichzeitiger Sicherstellung eines schonenden Eingriffs in das Faservlies als besonders günstig erwiesen, wenn der konkave Abschnitt und/oder der konvexe Abschnitt einen gekrümmten Verlauf mit einem Krümmungsradius im Bereich von 0,05 bis 0,4 mm, vorzugsweise 0,1 mm bis 0,3 mm, besonders bevorzugt etwa 0,2 mm aufweist.Although both the concave section and the convex section in the form of polygons made of straight lines Edge sections can be provided, it has themselves with a view to obtaining a satisfactory Retention force while ensuring a gentle Intervention in the nonwoven fabric has proven to be particularly favorable, if the concave section and / or the convex section a curved course with a radius of curvature in Range from 0.05 to 0.4 mm, preferably 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm, particularly preferably has about 0.2 mm.
Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist auch daran gedacht, nur einzelne Sägezähne, wie etwa nur jeden zweiten, dritten oder beliebig ausgewählte Sägezähne mit einem erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Zahnrücken auszustatten. Allerdings hat es sich als günstig erwiesen, wenn jeder Zahn des Sägezahndrahtes mindestens einen in Richtung auf den Zahngrund in einen konkaven Abschnitt übergehenden konvexen Abschnitt aufweist.Within the scope of the invention, only individual ones are also considered Saw teeth, such as only every second, third or any selected saw teeth with a trained according to the invention Equip tooth back. However, it turned out to be Proved to be favorable if every tooth of the sawtooth wire at least one towards the bottom of the tooth in a concave Section transitional convex section.
Bei erfindungsgemäßen Sägezahndrähten kann eine besonders ausgeprägte Zahnspitze der einzelnen Sägezähne sichergestellt werden, wenn bei mindestens einem der Zähne die Zahnbrust über einen konkaven Abschnitt in die Zahnspitze übergeht und der Zahnrücken im Anschluß an die Zahnspitze einen konvexen Abschnitt aufweist. Mit so ausgebildeten Sägezähnen erfolgt eine besonders zuverlässige Abnahme des Faservlieses von dem Tambour.In the case of sawtooth wires according to the invention, one can be special pronounced tooth tip of the individual saw teeth ensured if the teeth on at least one of the teeth passes over a concave section into the tooth tip and the tooth back following the tooth tip a convex Section. With saw teeth designed in this way a particularly reliable removal of the nonwoven from the drum.
Wenngleich durch die erfindungsgemäße Zahnform bereits eine besonders hohe Rückhaltekraft bereitgestellt werden kann, ist es in einigen Fällen, insbesondere bei der Hochleistungskardierung, erforderlich, eine weitere Erhöhung dieser Rückhaltekraft zu bewirken. In diesen Fällen kann die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der Sägezähne mit der bekannten Bereitstellung von Rilleneinwalzungen im Bereich der Zahnflanken kombiniert werden, so daß mindestens eine etwa parallel zur Längsrichtung des Drahtes verlaufende Zahnflanke mindestens eines der Zähne eine Profilierung aufweist. Diese Profilierung kann mindestens eine etwa in Längsrichtung des Drahtes verlaufende Profilrille und/oder mindestens einen etwa in Längsrichtung des Drahtes verlaufenden Profilsteg aufweisen.Already through the tooth shape according to the invention a particularly high retention force can be provided, in some cases, especially in high performance carding, required a further increase in this retention force to effect. In these cases, the invention Training the saw teeth with the known provision of grooved grooves combined in the area of the tooth flanks be, so that at least one approximately parallel to the longitudinal direction at least one tooth flank of the wire the teeth are profiled. This profiling can at least one extending approximately in the longitudinal direction of the wire Profile groove and / or at least one approximately in the longitudinal direction of the wire extending profile web.
Wie eingangs bereits erläutert, können zur Bearbeitung von Textilfasern gedachte Sägezahndrähte dadurch hergestellt werden, daß ein Ausgangsmaterial zu einem einen Blattabschnitt aufweisenden Draht geformt wird und anschließend Sägezähne in den Blattabschnitt gestanzt werden. Zur Herstellung erfindungsgemäßer Sägezahndrähte kann durch den Stanzvorgang bei mindestens einem der Sägezähne ein Zahnrücken mit mindestens einem in Richtung auf den Zahngrund in einem konkaven Abschnitt übergehenden konvexen Abschnitt gebildet werden. Zusätzlich kann mindestens eine Flanke des Blattabschnittes bei der Verformung des Ausgangsmaterials, wie etwa einer Kaltverformung, mit einer Profilierung, wie etwa mindestens einer parallel zur Längsrichtung des Drahtes verlaufenden Rille und/oder mindestens einem parallel zur Längsrichtung des Drahtes verlaufenden Steg versehen werden.As already explained at the beginning, you can edit sawtooth wires made of textile fibers are manufactured that a starting material to a sheet section wire is formed and then saw teeth in the sheet section are punched. For the production of the invention Sawtooth wires can be punched through a tooth back with at least one of the saw teeth one towards the bottom of the tooth in a concave section transition convex section are formed. additionally can at least one flank of the leaf section deformation of the starting material, such as cold working, with a profile, such as at least one groove running parallel to the longitudinal direction of the wire and / or at least one parallel to the longitudinal direction of the wire extending web are provided.

des Sägezahndrahtes 10 zwei Vorsprünge oder Nocken 40 bzw. 42
auf, die in der an die Zahnspitze 26 angrenzenden oberen
Hälfte des Zahnrückens 24 angeordnet sind. Die Form dieser
Vorsprünge 40 und 42 ist in Fig. 1b im einzelnen dargestellt.In the
Danach wird der der Zahnspitze 26 benachbarte Vorsprung
40 von einem konkaven Oberflächenbereich 28, einem konvexen
Oberflächenbereich 30 und einem weiteren konkaven Oberflächenbereich
32 begrenzt, wobei der konkave Oberflächenbereich 28

Auch ist die Erfindung nicht auf die anhand der Zeichnung erläuterten genauen Abmessungen eines Sägezahndrahtes beschränkt. Entscheidend ist vielmehr, daß mindestens einer der Sägezähne im Bereich seines Zahnrückens mindestens einen in einen konkaven Oberflächenbereich übergehenden konvexen Oberflächenbereich aufweist, der ein Widerlager für die von den Zähnen mitzuführenden Fasern bildet. Dabei kann dieses Widerlager nicht nur, wie bei den in der Zeichnung dargestellten besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsformen der Erfindung in Form eines Vorsprungs oder Nockens gebildet sein, sondern auch in Form einer Einbuchtung im Bereich der Zahnrücken.In the embodiment shown in the drawing of the invention, each tooth of the sawtooth wire is in the range of the tooth back with two projections or cams. In addition, however, is also the use of such embodiments thought, where only every second, third or x-any Tooth is equipped with appropriate cams. Further is also thought of embodiments in which individual or all teeth have only one cam or more than two cams. Otherwise, the tooth flanks of the individual teeth also with profiles, such as profile grooves or profile bars be equipped to increase the fiber retention force increase. The invention is also not based on the Drawing explained the exact dimensions of a sawtooth wire limited. Rather, it is crucial that at least at least one of the saw teeth in the area of his tooth back a convex transition into a concave surface area Surface area that has an abutment for the forms fibers to be carried by the teeth. This can Abutments not only, as in the case of those shown in the drawing particularly preferred embodiments of the invention in Form a projection or cam, but also in the form of an indentation in the area of the tooth back.
