Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for deflecting a warp thread family while weaving with a loom and one Loom.
  • the invention has for its object a method and to improve a weaving machine of the type mentioned at the beginning, that achieved an improvement in the quality of the tissue produced can be.
  • This task is solved in that the warp thread family between a stop line for a fabric to be woven and Technical training resources is deflected.
  • the deflection of the warp thread sheet in the section between the The stop line and the technical training means that the Warp thread coulter can be brought into a position by deviates from the position brought about by specialist training resources becomes. By changing the position it is possible to influence the tissue quality.
  • the deflection the warp thread assembly at changeable times and / or for changeable time spans and / or with changeable paths occurs during a weaving cycle.
  • the course of movement can be freely chosen and specified. For example he regardless of the movement of the drawer and / or the Specialist training resources and depending on the weaving speed of the Weaving machine selectable.
  • the warp threads while a weft thread is striking the fabric be deflected into a predetermined position. It is assume that the weft thread and thus the tissue formation run evenly, so that a better tissue quality is achieved when the position of a Warp thread sheet near the fabric during the beating a weft is predetermined.
  • This predetermined position can be chosen so that a weft thread can easily be attached the tissue can be attached so that a full tissue, a heavy or high density fabric such as for example denim.
  • the improved Striking the weft thread also has the advantage that so-called neck strips can be avoided. such Neck strips can form in a tissue if the Weft threads struck the fabric at an irregular height especially at a point where the loom starts again after a standstill.
  • the warp threads for a predetermined period of time during the setting be held in a deflected position.
  • the additionally tensioned warp thread coulter in one given position during weft threading which favors the easy attachment to the tissue.
  • the invention is therefore particularly suitable for use in weaving of the aforementioned substances.
  • the warp threads during of striking essentially to an intersection level be deflected in the warp thread coulters when changing of web subjects.
  • the voltage increase achieved with this and the position of the warp thread coulter bring advantages for easy weft thread insertion.
  • the position is near the crossing level beneficial to avoid warp threads when crossing the warp thread coulters get caught.
  • the warp thread sheet is deflected into a predetermined position is while auxiliary elements through the warp thread sheet be introduced into a shed. If the warp thread group is in a predetermined position, so the auxiliary elements to be introduced, for example relay nozzles for air weaving machines or hook-shaped guide elements for Rapier weaving machines, so that they are as possible without damage the warp threads are moved through the warp thread sheet can be.
  • the deflection of the warp thread set on the movement of the associated training resources is matched that the warp threads in this warp thread group during an opening or Closing a shed kept under tension.
  • the task is solved in that the means for deflecting between a stop line Tissue and technical training means are arranged. To this Not only can the tension of the warp thread coulter be wise adjust, but also the position of the section of the Warp thread coulter that connects to the stop line.
  • the means are provided with a controllable drive for deflection. This makes it possible to track the movement of the means Deflect any shape and follow the course of movement the sley and / or the course of movement of the specialist training means to adapt and to choose these out of phase.
  • the means for deflecting have a frame which in one Guide block is guided, in which also frames of heald frames are led.
  • This is a particularly beneficial one Embodiment, since such guide blocks already in a weaving machine are usually present. It is in the Within the scope of the invention, this advantage of the arrangement of means to use for deflection even when these means between the technical training resources or even in the back subject to be ordered. In this case it is only possible to to tension the relevant warp thread family, however, the advantage of the favorable arrangement of the funds according to the invention received to deflect. It is easily possible already existing weaving machines with the means for deflecting equip by, for example, these funds instead of one Heald shaft are used or by the existing ones Guide blocks around a guide for the framework of funds to be extended to deflect.
