Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a filling bar preventing method and apparatus that perform a cloth fell position correcting operation for correcting the position of the cloth fell of a fabric on a loom, and a tension adjusting operation for adjusting warp tension.
  • a filling bar preventing method disclosed in Patent Document 1 executes a filling bar preventing procedure before starting a loom for a normal weaving operation.
  • the filling bar preventing procedure includes reversing the surface roller through a predetermined angle to shift the cloth fell backward, i.e., in the reverse direction opposite a direction in which warp yarns advance, turning a warp beam through a predetermined angle in the normal direction to adjust the tension of the warp yarns, and restarting the loom.
  • the warp tension decreases with stopping time. Therefore, the length of time necessary for a loom that carries out a warp tension adjusting operation for adjusting warp tension before restarting the loom to adjust warp tension is dependent on the change of warp tension during the stop of the loom.
  • a preparatory starting procedure to be performed before restarting the loom includes a cloth fell positioning operation that turns the warp beam and the associated guide rollers to move all the warp yarns to correct the position of the cloth fell relative to the beating-up position.
  • the correction of the position of the cloth fell by the cloth fell positioning operation changes the warp tension.
  • Time necessary to complete the warp tension adjusting operation is dependent on the positional correction distance of the cloth fell, the change (reduction) of the warp tension which may occur while the loom is stopped.
  • the inventors of the present invention have found through studies that the effect of stop of the loom on the position of the cloth fell and the warp tension is dependent on a member driven for cloth fell adjustment, such as the surface roller or the warp beam. If the warp tension adjusting operation is completed before completing the cloth fell position correcting operation, values of the warp tension set by the warp tension adjusting operation are changed by the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • the cloth fell position correcting operation can be achieved in a substantially fixed time, time necessary to complete the warp tension adjusting operation changes according to the change of the warp tension while the loom is stopped. Consequently, the time when the warp tension adjusting operation is completed is not definite with respect to the time when the cloth fell position correcting operation is completed.
  • actual warp tensions at the restart of the loom and at the first beating-up motion after the restart of the loom deviate greatly from desired warp tensions and, consequently, filling bars are formed.
  • the filling bars cannot necessarily be prevented simply by carrying out the cloth fell position correcting operation and the warp tension adjusting operation, and there have been problems in the reliability of the cloth fell position correcting operation and the warp tension adjusting operation in preventing filling bars.
  • the warp yarns are in sliding contact with mechanical parts including heddles, the reed and droppers, friction between the warp yarns and those mechanical parts obstructs the accurate transmission of the torque of the surface roller to the warp yarns. Consequently, the effect of the surface roller on warp tension adjustment is inferior to that of the warp beam for the same purpose.
  • the torque of the warp beam on which the warp yarns are wound can be surely transmitted to the warp yarns. Therefore, the relation between the torque of the warp beam and the tension of the warp yarns is definite and hence it is suitable to use the warp beam for warp tension adjustment.
  • the warp beam is less suitable for the positional adjustment of the cloth fell than the surface roller.
  • a filling bar preventing method comprises the steps of executing a preparatory starting procedure including a cloth fell position correcting operation that corrects the position of the cloth fell to a predetermined position by turning a surface roller included in the loom, and a warp tension adjusting operation that adjusts warp tension to a predetermined warp tension by turning a warp beam included in the loom; and starting the loom after the completion of the preparatory starting procedure.
  • the preparatory starting procedure is completed by completing the warp tension adjusting operation after the completion of the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • a filling bar preventing apparatus comprises: a cloth fell position correcting device that carries out a cloth fell position correcting operation for correcting position of a cloth fell in a fabric on a loom by rotating a surface roller included in the loom; a warp tension adjusting device that carries out a warp tension adjusting operation for adjusting warp tension to a predetermined warp tension by rotating a warp beam mounted on the loom; and a main controller that starts the loom after the completion of a preparatory starting procedure including the cloth fell position correcting operation and the warp tension adjusting operation.
  • the main controller completes the preparatory starting procedure by completing the warp tension adjusting operation after the completion of the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • interruption of the cloth fell position correcting operation and that of the warp tension adjusting operation due to trouble arisen during the cloth fell position correcting operation and the warp tension adjusting operation are not the completion of the cloth fell position correcting operation and that of the warp tension adjusting operation.
  • the preparatory starting procedure is completed by completing the warp tension adjusting operation that operates the warp beam to adjust the warp tension to the predetermined warp tension after accurately correcting the position of the cloth fell so that the cloth fell is at a predetermined position by the cloth fell position correcting operation that operates the surface roller to correct the position of the cloth fell, and then the loom is started for the normal weaving operation.
  • the warp tension adjusting operation may be started after starting the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • the warp tension adjusting operation after the completion may be started of the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • the filling bar preventing method according to the present invention may further comprise the steps of estimating operating times necessary for completing the cloth fell position correcting operation and the warp tension adjusting operation, determining a time difference between a time point where the cloth fell position correcting operation is started and that where the warp tension adjusting operation is started on the basis of the estimated operating times, and determining time points at which the warp tension adjusting operation are to be started, on the basis of the time difference.
  • the time difference between the time points where the cloth fell position correcting operation and the warp tension adjusting operation are to be started may be a fixed time difference or a time difference selected from predetermined time differences determined taking into consideration changes in the warp tension.

  • the drive signal generator 76 Upon the reception of the start preparation signal S7, the drive signal generator 76 performs a cloth fell position correcting operation for a time t2 (Fig. 4(D)).
  • the drive signal generator 76 converts a drive amount (rotation amount) for the take-up motor 54 into a pulse-like cloth fell position control signal S11 on the basis of the correction data stored in the cloth fell position correction data storage device 82 during the cloth fell position correcting operation, and applies the cloth fell position control signal S11 to one of the input terminals of an adder 86 included in the synchronization control unit 66.

  • the cloth fell position correcting operation can be completed before the completion of the warp tension adjusting operation.
  • time is measured on the horizontal axis, and take-up speed corresponding to the cloth fell position control signal S11 provided by the drive signal generator 76 is measured on the vertical axis.
  • the area of a shaded area is equal to a moved distance by which the cloth fell 22 is moved, i.e., a correction value by which the position of the cloth fell 22 is changed.
  • a let-off controller 40 and a take-up controller 62 change a starting speed signal S17 for the warp tension adjusting operation on the basis of cloth fell position correction value set by the cloth fell position correction data storage device 82 to adjust the time necessary for completing the warp tension adjusting operation.
  • the value of the starting speed signal S17 for the warp tension adjusting operation is decreased to increase the time necessary for the warp tension adjusting operation apparently. Consequently, the time point where the warp tension adjusting operation is completed is delayed.
  • the value of a gain signal S21 provided by a gain correcting device 118 included in a controller 100 that operates at the start is decreased.
  • the filling bar preventing apparatus shown in Fig. 7 may determine the time t3 for the warp tension adjusting operation, and may change the gain signal S21 for the warp tension adjusting operation or the speed command signal S20 for the cloth fell position correcting operation on the basis of the relation between the times t2 and t3 to end the warp tension adjusting operation after the completion of the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • the take-up controller 62 sends a value stored in the cloth fell position correction data storage device 82 to the gain correcting device 118.

  • the control device 100 Upon the reception of the gain signal S21, the control device 100 calculates the warp tension difference between a warp tension set by the warp tension setting device 108 and a warp tension represented by a warp tension signal S3, multiplies the calculated warp tension difference by the coefficient K2 to provide a starting speed signal S17.
  • a starting speed represented by this starting speed signal S17 is lower than that represented by the starting speed signal S17 provided by the control device 100 shown in Fig. 3. Consequently, the warp beam 14 is rotated at a rotating speed lower than that at which the warp beam 14 is rotated for the ordinary warp tension adjusting operation to extend the time required by the warp tension adjusting operation so that the cloth fell position correcting operation is completed apparently at an earlier time point.
  • a warp tension deviation signal is given to the speed correcting device and the gain correcting device shown in Figs. 6 and 7, a plurality of values of the correction coefficient and a plurality of values of the gain are set for warp tension deviations and values of the correction coefficient and the gains corresponding to a measured warp tension deviation are selected when the start preparation signal S7 is generated.
  • the time interval between the start of the cloth fell position correcting operation and that of the warp tension adjusting operation may be a fixed value or a value selected taking into considerations factors that affect the warp tension from values set beforehand.
  • factors that affect the warp tension include time for which the loom 10 is stopped, set warp tension, distances by which the heddles are raised and lowered for shedding, and such.
  • the crank angle of the main shaft 46 relates with distances by which the heddles are raised and lowered.
  • the time necessary for completing the cloth fell position correcting operation may be shortened by rotating the surface roller 28 at a rotating speed higher than that at which the surface roller 28 is rotated while the case of usual filling bar preventing method.
  • the time necessary for completing the warp tension adjusting operation may be prolonged by rotating the warp beam 14 at a rotating speed lower than that at which the warp beam 14 is rotated while the case of usual filling bar preventing method.
  • the difference between the rotating speed of the surface roller 28 during the cloth fell position correcting operation and that of the same while the case of usual filling bar preventing method may be a fixed value or may be a value selected according to the value of the factor that affect the warp tension from values set beforehand.
  • the surface roller 28 may be turned in the normal direction or the reverse direction during the preparatory starting operation. More concretely, the cloth fell position correcting operation does not need to be performed only once during the preparatory starting operation and may be performed twice during the preparatory starting operation. When the cloth fell position correcting operation is performed twice, the surface roller 28 may be turned in the same direction for the first and the second cycle of the cloth fell position correcting operation or may be tuned in opposite directions respectively for the first and the second cycle of the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • the warp tension adjusting operation may be performed every time the cloth fell position correcting operation is performed or may be performed in combination with the last cycle of the cloth fell position correcting operation.
  • the cloth fell position correcting operation may be performed three or more times.
  • the filling bar preventing apparatus estimates the warp tension from the measured load on the back roller 16 measured by the warp tension sensor 44, the warp tension may be estimated from the measured tensions of some of the warp yarns 12.
  • the warp tension sensor 44 that measures the load on the back roller 16 may be such as capable of measuring the strain or displacement of the back roller 16.

  • the present invention is applicable to a loom that weaves fancy fabrics.
  • the filling bar preventing apparatus when the filling bar preventing apparatus is applied to a loom capable of selectively changing weft density by changing the number of picks per unit length of a fabric, the amount of the cloth fell position correcting operation at the start of the loom is selectively determined according to a weft density at the start of the loom.
  • the filling bar preventing apparatus is applied to a loom that changes a desired warp tension according to a change in weft density, a desired warp tension corresponding to a weft density at the start of the loom is determined at the start of the loom.
  • control device 96 may be a generally known simple controller that performs a control action simpler than the PID controller.
