Definitions
- the present invention is concerned with controllable means or methods for influencing the transfer factor in cards, i.e. the proportion of fiber mass in the drum covering, which passes to the customer per drum revolution.
- cards i.e. the proportion of fiber mass in the drum covering, which passes to the customer per drum revolution.
- Convention Cards are often the same textile fibers, e.g. Cotton, Chemical fibers, or mixtures thereof (assortments) processed.
- the settings the card and the upstream and downstream textile processing machines usually only adjusted once to the corresponding material types or optimized and then no longer changed.
- Such operating parameter settings are mostly cumbersome and take a relatively long time.
- Optimal operating parameters of the card or the entire production line are necessary possibly take fiber material samples at different locations and take them partially analyze with complex and time-consuming measuring methods in the laboratory (e.g.
- a quick one New adjustment of the textile processing machines or adaptation to the new one to be processed Material is therefore an advantage.
- This requirement of rapid adaptability the card also increases the disadvantages mentioned above.
- Another disadvantage conventional card is that its transfer factor is not direct and independent can be influenced, although the transmission factor has a significant influence the fiber processing and thus on the processing quality of the card.
- DE-A-196-51-893 describes a method and a device in which the staple fiber length and the number of nits are measured on a card. The measured values determined are used to set the operating parameters of the card. To optimize production, the number of nits and the fiber length distribution are determined and linked. Based on this link, a regulation or control specifies the optimal operating parameters. The measurement is carried out online (measurement of the stack diagram and number of nits). The following two operating parameters (manipulated variables) are adjusted: the distance between the sets of covers and the drum (carding gap) and the speed of the drum.
- the optimal setting values are regulated or determined on the basis of stored characteristic diagrams / characteristic curves which also contain the associated machine setting data.
- the input data are compared with these maps / characteristic curves.
- the fiber samples required for evaluation are suctioned off.
- extraction can take place at the following locations: on the customer, on the doctor roller, on the squeeze rollers, or on the licker-in.
- the stack which can be measured online, is measured using a fibrograph (fiber beard curve).
- a method and a device on a card is further described, in which the fiber stack is measured twice. At the entrance and at the exit of the card, partial quantities of the fibers are removed, for example by suction.
- the fiber reduction amount is determined from the difference values of the measurements. Depending on the value, those working elements that influence the carding gap are readjusted or optimized (influencing the carding intensity). Fiber samples are taken at the following locations: on the customer, on the doctor roll, before or after the squeeze rolls, on the reel or on the licker-in. The samples are evaluated automatically and online, ie the stack diagram is determined from the values. The evaluations serve as input data for the regulating and control devices, which determine the optimal machine setting data. The optimal machine setting data with regard to the carding gap are passed on online to those working elements or actuators of the carding machine which control the distance between the clothing of the drum and the cover. Here too, the control and regulating devices have stored characteristic curves.
- a fibrograph and a fiber shortening sensor are provided for fiber length measurement.
- CH 629 544 describes adjusting means which can adjust the distance between two roller surfaces.
- the actuating means are controlled by a control means.
- the control means is connected to a measuring element which can measure the speed of a roller. From this, the device determines the effect of the centrifugal force and from this the distance between the rollers.
- Another measuring device can be provided in the writing, which measures the temperature of the rollers.
- the control means controls the adjusting means so that the distance between the rollers can be kept constant within narrow tolerances despite heat and centrifugal force.
- the device according to this document wants to solve problems, especially in the start-up phase of the card.
- the invention is based on the object of a method and a device to create the adjustability and thus the processing of the fibers significantly improved in the card.
- the problem is solved by the characterizing features of the claims.
- the inventive method and its device make it possible to optimally control the processing of fibers or flakes in the card.
- the fiber flow is controlled by controlling the transmission factor. This means that it is determined how many drum revolutions the fibers go through on average before changing to the customer.
- the fibers or flakes are processed in this way only as long and as intensively as necessary. This optimizes the processing of the fibers in the card, while maintaining the least possible fiber damage (fiber shortening) or formation of nits.
- the device according to the invention and its method allow a quick and automatic adaptation of the fiber processing to fluctuations in the fiber material quality (fluctuations caused by different material quality or properties of the individual fiber bales), in general to new fiber materials to be processed (i.e.
- the fiber material properties are additionally still measured (especially with the help of an online measurement).
- the measurement data are evaluated by an evaluation system so that the controllable mean or the controllable means set an optimal transfer factor on the card can / can.
- the invention accordingly sees a card with a drum and a customer which is a controllable means of influencing the transfer factor, i.e. the proportion of fiber mass in the drum covering, that per drum revolution on the customer passes, contains.
- the invention is particularly preferred in combination with a device in which the number of nits and / or the fiber length (stack) is measured and evaluated before and / or after a working element.
- a nit sensor and a fiber length measuring device are provided accordingly and carry out the measurements (the fiber length measuring device taking a small amount of fiber as a sample).
- a regulation / control is provided, which receives the named measured values for fiber length and / or number of nits from the sensors as input variables and determines optimized machine setting data therefrom.
- the regulation / control preferably works with stored characteristic maps or data records.
- the determined machine setting data or parameters are output to one or more means controlling the transfer factor of the card.
- Actuators which influence the number of nits and / or the fiber stack of the textile processing machine are preferably also controlled. This is to be understood to the extent that several actuators or means can be controlled or regulated in combination in order to change one or more settings on the machine.
- the measurements are carried out on upstream or downstream working elements.
- this regulation or control can take place online and automatically, ie during operation, without external intervention by the operating personnel.
- semi-automatic variants are also conceivable, in which the sensors or the control system draws the operating personnel's attention to a recommended adaptation of the transmission factor and any other operating parameters, and the latter still have to agree to an adaptation, for example by pressing a button.
- the invention is also applicable to clutter.
- the transmission factor can be controlled by individual or a combination of means.
- the means or actuators that influence or control the transmission factor can adjust entire areas. For example, the entire sub-carding zone, ie the entire arch with all profiles is adjusted.
- the lower carding area is the lower area of the card which, viewed in the direction of rotation of the drum, lies between the tongue and the licker-in.
- the inventive concept therefore includes the following devices, methods and uses: A card or card with a reel and a customer which contains a controllable means for influencing the transfer factor.
- the transfer factor indicates how high is the proportion of fiber mass from the drum covering that is transferred to the customer per revolution of the drum. This means that the transfer factor indicates what percentage of the fiber mass on the reel is transferred to the customer with each revolution of the reel.
- controllable means is the set the drum and / or the customer.
- This influencing the Garnish can preferably be realized according to EP 403989.
- controllable means can be one or more Include actuators that change at least one of the following operating parameters: The speed of the licker-in, the speed of the reel, the speed of the customer, the ratio of drum speed to customer speed, the distance between reel and customer, the distance between reel and licker, the Position and position of the fiber-air guide element (also in the technical jargon Called "tongue"), in the sub-carding zone the distance of the round arch and the associated Profiles on the reel, the settings in the postcarding zone, in particular of the convertible top profiles and / or carding elements, the distance between the feed roller and Licker, or the production of the card.
- the speed of the licker-in the speed of the reel, the speed of the customer, the ratio of drum speed to customer speed, the distance between reel and customer, the distance between reel and licker, the Position and position of the fiber-air guide element (also in the technical jargon Called "tongue"), in the sub-carding zone the distance of the round arch and the associated Profiles on the
- the invention generally also includes the method of using a card or card to provide a controllable means that influences the transmission factor.
- the inventive idea also includes the associated method that the controllable means one or more actuators comprises which change at least one of the following operating parameters that Speed of the licker-in, the speed of the reel, the speed of the customer, the ratio of drum speed to speed taker, the distance between Reel and customer, the distance between reel and licker who Position and position of the fiber-air guide element, the so-called tongue, in the sub-carding zone the distance of the arch and the associated profiles to the reel, the settings in the postcarding zone, especially the convertible top profiles and / or Carding elements, the distance between the feed roller and the licker-in, or the production the teasel.

- a particularly recommended variant of the method according to the invention or the device is influencing the transmission factor during operation to let the card or card take place (online).
- a procedure on a card or card in which before and / or after a working element the card or a upstream or downstream textile processing machine the number of nits and / or the fiber length (stack) is determined, with a regulation / control is provided, which the values for fiber length and / or Nits as input values and from this an optimal transfer factor destined for the card, with controllable means shot at the regulation / control to set the transfer factor of the card.
- the determination of The length of the fiber, the staple and the number of nits are measured using special measuring devices and sensors, which preferably allow online evaluation. Such devices are known from the prior art and are subject to constant Development. These measuring devices are not discussed in the following, because they are not the subject of the invention.
- a conventional belt drive can be used to change the speed of the licker-in (s), but the use of a frequency converter is preferred.
- the term "transmission factor indicates what percentage of the fiber mass on the reel is transferred to the customer with each revolution of the reel.
- a transmission factor of 20% means, for example, that 20% of the fibers on the reel change to the customer per revolution. In other words, each fiber runs an average of five times with the drum (and is carded) before it is picked up by the customer.
- the inventive concept also includes the possibility that the controllable means or the actuator, which changes the transmission factor, consists of several individual ones
- the term "actuator" in the entire patent specification also means several means.
- an actuator can include several (mechanical) adjustment mechanisms with the associated motors and possibly the associated frequency converters or electronic controls auc h the fact that the transmission factor depends on several settings / parameters and can therefore also be influenced by several actuators.
- several actuators can be involved at the same time, e.g. actuators that change the spacing between licker-in or drum-out, or change the distance between the feed roller and licker-in, or actuators that can adjust the speeds of the drum or taker (or the ratio of the speed of the drum to the speed of the consumer).
- the transmission factor is also influenced by other factors. This includes in particular the type of fiber, the set production and the type of card clothing, as well as their sharpness.
- a sensor can determine the sharpness of the sets and an actuator according to the invention can improve the sharpness of the sets.
- the actuator can thus also represent a grinding device or generally be another maintenance element. Such grinding devices or maintenance elements are described in further patent documents of the applicant.
- the production of the card ie fiber mass delivered per unit of time per sliver
- the sliver weight ie the weight per unit length of the card sliver
- the outfeed speed of the card sliver is in turn directly proportional to the rotational speed of the customer. In most cases, the customer is powered by its own motor.
- the production is determined solely by the outlet speed and thus by the circulation speed of the customer.
- the sliver weight itself is determined by the weight of the wadding and the basic warpage, the ratio of the peripheral speed of the customer to that of the feed roller (ie sliver weight equals wadding weight multiplied by the effective warpage in the card). Assuming the requirement for a constant strip weight, the speed of the feed roller is thus also indirectly determined by the peripheral speed of the customer.
- the long-term correction has the purpose, as mentioned above, of keeping the strip weight at a constant value.
- the belt weight is usually measured at the output of the card and the peripheral speed of the feed roller is adjusted accordingly (ie the effective warpage is regulated). This ensures that long-term deviations in the belt weight can be corrected.
- the long-term correction is usually supplemented by the short-term correction.
- the production of the card also influences the quality of the sliver, ie the outfeed speed also has an influence on the sliver quality.
- These interactions must be taken into account by the controls. Regardless of this, the speeds of the rotating work elements (drum, licker-in, pick-up, feed roller etc.) must adapt to the sliver's outfeed speed.
- frequency converters or equivalent gear ratios are used as actuators, which control the speed of the drive motors.
- the actuators can in turn be controlled via associated control units. These control units can carry out their own evaluation and can be connected both to the corresponding measuring devices and to central control units, which regulate and control the processes and production in the entire blow room and card shop.
- the method according to the invention also includes, as a variant, the possibility that the regulation / control additionally the optimized machine setting data on at least an actuator influencing the number of nits and / or the stack of an upstream or downstream one Textile fiber processing machine outputs, in particular to an actuator an upstream blowroom machine such as an actuator on one of the cards or Carding upstream filling shaft (influence of the cotton pad by the Hopper).
- the term "actuator" also includes the associated means.
- the regulation / control receives in a further variant of the invention which determines the values for fiber length and / or number of nits as input variables and from this the optimal transmission factor.
- the regulation / control the optimal transmission factor based on specified or stored maps or data sets determined.
- the methods described also include the corresponding devices.
- a device in a textile fiber processing machine in particular a card, carding machine, in which the number of nits and / or the fiber length (stack) is determined before and / or after at least one working element of the same machine or an upstream or downstream textile processing machine, with a regulation / control It is provided which receives the above-mentioned values for fiber length and / or number of nits as input variables according to a method described above and from this the optimal transfer factor for the card and this to at least one means or actuator controlling the transfer factor.

Abstract
Description
In der Schrift DE-A-196-51-891 wird des weiteren ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung an einer Karde beschrieben, bei der der Faserstapel zweimal gemessen wird. Am Eingang und am Ausgang der Karde werden Teilmengen der Fasern entnommen, z.B. abgesaugt. Aus den Differenzwerten der Messungen wird der Faserkürzungsbetrag ermittelt. Je nach Wert werden diejenigen Arbeitselemente welche den Kardierspalt beeinflussen neu eingestellt bzw. optimiert (Beeinflussung der Kardierintensität). Die Entnahme von Faserproben erfolgt an folgenden Stellen: Am Abnehmer, an der Abstreichwalze, vor oder nach den Quetschwalzen, am Tambour oder am Vorreisser. Die Proben werden automatisch und online ausgewertet, d.h. aus den Werten wird das Stapeldiagramm ermittelt. Die Auswertungen dienen als Eingabedaten für die Regel- und Steuereinrichtungen, welche die optimalen Maschineneinstelldaten bestimmen. Die optimalen Maschineneinstelldaten bezüglich Kardierspalt werden online an diejenigen Arbeitselemente bzw. Aktoren der Karde weitergegeben, welche den Abstand zwischen den Garnituren der Trommel und der Deckel steuern. Auch hier besitzen die Steuer- und Regeleinrichtungen gespeicherte Kennkurven. Für die Faserlängenmessung sind ein Fibrograph und ein Faserkürzungssensor vorgesehen.
Ein weiterer Stand der Technik, die CH 629 544, beschreibt Stellmittel, welche den Abstand zwischen zwei Walzenoberflächen einstellen können. Die Schrift erwähnt, dass bei der Übertragung des Faservlieses von einer Walze zur nächsten, der Abstand zwischen den Walzen eine Rolle spielt. Gemäss diesem Stand der Technik haben auch die Oberflächengeschwindigkeiten oder die Garniturart einen entsprechenden Einfluss. Die Stellmittel sind über ein Steuermittel gesteuert. Das Steuermittel steht mit einem Messorgan in Verbindung, welches die Drehzahl einer Walze messen kann. Daraus ermittelt die Vorrichtung die Wirkung der Fliehkraft und daraus den Abstand zwischen den Walzen. Ein anderes Messorgan kann in der Schrift vorgesehen werden, welches die Temperatur der Walzen misst. Das Steuermittel steuert die Stellmittel, so dass der Abstand zwischen den Walzen trotz Wärme und Fliehkraft konstant in engen Toleranzen gehalten werden kann. Die Vorrichtung gemäss dieser Schrift will Probleme vor allem in der Anlaufphase der Karde lösen.
Diese Verbesserungen werden durch die erfindungsgemässen Merkmale der Ansprüche ermöglicht.
Die Erfindung ist auch für Krempel anwendbar. Der Übertragungsfaktor kann von einzelnen oder von einer Kombination von Mitteln gesteuert werden. Die Mittel oder Aktoren welche den Übertragungsfaktor beeinflussen oder steuern, können ganze Bereiche verstellen. Beispielsweise die gesamte Unterkardierzone, d.h. der gesamte Rundbogen mit allen Profilen wird verstellt. Als Unterkardierzone wird derjenige untere Bereich der Karde bezeichnet, welcher - in Drehrichtung der Trommel gesehen- zwischen Zunge und Vorreisser liegt.
Eine Karde oder Krempel mit einer Tambour und einem Abnehmer, welcher ein steuerbares Mittel zur Beeinflussung des Übertragungsfaktors enthält. Der Übertragungsfaktor gibt an, wie hoch der Anteil Fasermasse vom Tambourbelag ist, der pro Tambour-Umdrehung auf den Abnehmer übergeht. Das heisst, der Übertragungsfaktor gibt an, wieviel Prozent der auf dem Tambour befindlichen Fasermasse bei jeder Umdrehung des Tambours auf den Abnehmer übertragen wird.
Die Produktion der Karde (d.h. als Faserband gelieferte Fasermasse pro Zeiteinheit) ist letztendlich durch das Bandgewicht, d.h. das Gewicht pro Längeneinheit des Kardenbandes, und die Auslaufgeschwindigkeit des Kardenbandes bestimmt. Die Geschwindigkeit des Kardenbandes ist wiederum direkt proportional zur Umlaufgeschwindigkeit des Abnehmers. In den meisten Fällen wird der Abnehmer von einem eigenen Motor angetrieben. Bei einer Karde besteht das Bestreben, ein Band mit einem vorgegebenen, konstanten Bandgewicht zu produzieren, so dass das Bandgewicht nicht verändert werden darf. Weil die Produktion gleich der Auslaufgeschwindigkeit x Bandgewicht ist und das Bandgewicht nicht verändert werden soll, ist die Produktion allein durch die Auslaufgeschwindigkeit und damit durch die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit des Abnehmers bestimmt. Das Bandgewicht selbst wir durch das Gewicht der Wattenvorlage und den Grundverzug, dem Verhältnis der Umfangsgeschwindigkeit des Abnehmers zu der der Speisewalze, bestimmt (d.h. Bandgewicht gleich Wattengewicht multipliziert mit dem effektiven Verzug in der Karde). Das Erfordernis nach konstantem Bandgewicht vorausgesetzt, wird die Drehzahl der Speisewalze somit indirekt auch von der Umfangsgeschwindigkeit des Abnehmers bestimmt. Um das Bandgewicht konstant zu halten, ist es auf dem Gebiet der Karden daher schon lange üblich Massnahmen zu treffen, um das Wattengewicht (Gewicht der Watte pro Längeneinheit) in der Speisevorrichtung konstant zu halten. Kleine Variationen im Wattengewicht der der Karden-Speisevorrichtung zugeführten Wattenvorlage versucht man mit kleinen Änderungen der Speisewalzen-Drehzahl auszugleichen (Änderung des Grundverzuges). Kurzzeitige Wattengewichtsschwankungen der Wattenvorlage vor bzw. in der Speisevorrichtung einer Karde werden durch eine entsprechende Messvorrichtung erkannt, worauf über eine Steuerung/Regelung (inkl. Aktoren) die Speisewalzen-Drehzahl entsprechend angepasst wird. Diese Regelung/Steuerung wird im Stand der Technik als Kurzzeitkorrektur bezeichnet. Neben dieser ersten Möglichkeit ist meist auch eine sogenannte Langzeitkorrektur vorgesehen. Die Langzeitkorrektur hat den Zweck, wie oben angesprochen, das Bandgewicht auf einen möglichst konstanten Wert zu halten. Für die Langzeitkorrektur wird üblicherweise das Bandgewicht am Ausgang der Karde gemessen und die Umfangsgeschwindigkeit der Speisewalze entsprechend angepasst (d.h. der effektive Verzug wird geregelt). Auf diese Weise wird sichergestellt, dass Langzeitabweichungen des Bandgewichtes ausgeregelt werden können. Die Langzeitkorrektur wird meist durch die Kurzzeitkorrektur ergänzt. Diese Ergänzung wird deshalb gemacht, weil die Langzeitkorrektur zum einen Abweichungen erst dann erkennen kann, wenn sie bereits entstanden sind und zum anderen, weil sie aufgrund der grossen Entfernung zwischen Speisewalze und Abnehmer, sowie der Speicherkapazität des Tambours, nicht im Stande ist kurzzeitige Wattengewichtsschwankungen auszugleichen. Beispiele solcher Regelungen/Steuerungen und Korrekturvorrichtungen sind z.B. den Schriften DE 29 12 576, EP 383 246 und US 4 275 483 zu entnehmen. Durch die erfindungsgemässe Beeinflussung des Übertragungsfaktors ist man aber auch in der Lage die Kurzzeit-Regulierung zu ergänzen.
Wie vorhin erwähnt, wird in der Praxis die Produktion der Karde immer über die Auslaufgeschwindigkeit des Faserbandes gesteuert, kaum über das Bandgewicht (welches ja konstant bleiben sollte). Die Produktion der Karde beeinflusst aber auch die Qualität des Faserbandes, d.h. die Auslaufgeschwindigkeit hat auch einen Einfluss auf die Faserbandqualität. Diese Wechselwirkungen müssen durch die Steuerungen berücksichtigt werden. Unabhängig davon, müssen sich die Drehzahlen der sich drehenden Arbeitselemente (Tambour, Vorreisser, Abnehmer, Speisewalze etc.) der Auslaufgeschwindigkeit des Faserbandes anpassen. Als Aktoren werden in solchen Fällen Frequenzumrichter oder äquivalente Übersetzungen verwendet, welche die Drehzahl der Antriebsmotoren steuern. Die Aktoren können ihrerseits über zugehörige Steuereinheiten gesteuert werden. Diese Steuereinheiten können eine eigene Auswertung vornehmen und sowohl mit den entsprechenden Messvorrichtungen verbunden sein, als auch mit zentralen Steuereinheiten, welche die Abläufe und Produktion in der ganzen Putzerei und Karderie regeln und steuern. Es wäre natürlich auch denkbar, wenn auch meist nicht sinnvoll, die Produktion der Karde über Aktoren zu beeinflussen, welche das Bandgewicht verändern. Dies könnte vor allem dann sinnvoll sein, wenn die Karde neue Sortimente verarbeiten muss und aufgrund der späteren Weiterverarbeitung des Faserbandes andere Bandgewichte erwünscht sind. Eine Umstellung der Karde oder Krempel auf das neue Bandgewicht wäre somit schneller und einfacher zu bewerkstelligen. Bisher wurde bei der Beeinflussung der Produktion und der Verarbeitungsqualität der Karde oder Krempel nie versucht den Übertragungsfaktor anzupassen bzw. zu steuern. Das Bestreben (siehe CH 629 544) ging eher in die entgegengesetzte Richtung, d.h. den Übertragungsfaktor konstant zu daher Teil des Erfindungsgedankens, die Beeinflussung der Produktionsqualität mit der Regelung und Steuerung des Übertragungsfaktors zu kombinieren. Wie erwähnt, kann die Auslaufgeschwindigkeit einen Einfluss auf die Kardenbandqualität haben. In einem solchen Fall wäre es beispielsweise denkbar, die durch die erhöhte Produktion bzw. Auslaufgeschwindigkeit verursachte Qualitätseinbusse im Faserband durch entsprechende Beeinflussung des Übertragungsfaktors ganz oder teilweise zu kompensieren, so dass aber der Kardierprozess schonender ist (geringere Stapelfaserverkürzung).
Zum Beispiel eine Vorrichtung in einer Textilfaserverarbeitungsmaschine, insbesondere Karde, Krempel, bei welcher vor und/oder nach mindestens einem Arbeitselement derselben Maschine oder einer vor- oder nachgeschalteten Textilverarbeitungsmaschine die Nissenzahl und/oder die Faserlänge (Stapel) bestimmt wird, wobei eine Regelung/Steuerung vorgesehen ist, welche nach einem oben beschriebenen Verfahren die genannten Werte für Faserlänge und/oder Nissenzahl als Eingabegrössen erhält und daraus den optimalen Übertragungsfaktor für die Karde und diesen an mindestens einen den Übertragungsfaktor steuerden Mittel oder Aktor.
