Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of advancing essentially rectangular pieces of cloth to a feeder according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention further relates to a device for advancing essentially rectangular pieces of cloth to a feeder according to the preamble of claim 6.
  • Feeding of essentially rectangular pieces of cloth to a feeder often takes place with the purpose of having washed and still moist pieces of cloth straightened before being taken through a laundry apparatus such as eg a rotary ironer. To this end a feeder is provided before the laundry apparatus.
  • the pieces of cloth are taken one at a time from a pile of pieces of cloth and are arranged in conveyor clamps for being conveyed to a feeder.
  • EP 0 982 428 A1 teaches a method and a device for advancing pieces of cloth to a laundry machine.
  • each individual piece of cloth is seized manually by an operator and two opposed corners of a side edge is found.
  • the corners of the piece of cloth are arranged in two successive conveyor clamps that are configured in an advancement conveyor.
  • the piece of cloth, which is arranged in the two successive conveyor clamps are conveyed "laterally" to a buffer storage.
  • the buffer storage is often integral with a conveyor rail that constitutes a part of the advancement conveyor. From the buffer storage the pieces of cloth are taken one at a time to a feeder for being fed to a rotary ironer.
  • the pieces of cloth are transferred from the conveyor clamps of the advancement conveyor to spreader clamps configured in the feeder.
  • the spreader clamps serve to straighten the piece of cloth at the front, transversally to the direction of conveyance of the feeder, following which the straightened piece of cloth is conveyed into the feeder and on into the rotary ironer.
  • each individual piece of cloth is to be seized by an operator and two adjacent corners of a side edge of the piece of cloth are to be found prior to the corners being subsequently arranged in two successive conveyor clamps.
  • the respective cycle times are not necessarily the same for the large pieces of cloth and the small pieces of cloth.
  • the cycle time per piece of cloth thus varies in response to the type/size of piece of cloth, and since moreover the cycle time is comparatively long it is necessary to configure several inlet stations with each their operator to even out these differences. Not until then is it possible to feed sufficiently many pieces of cloth to utilize the capacity of the advancement conveyor optimally.
  • Increase in capacity is a general object of such advancement systems that are used for advancing pieces of cloth to a feeder. Therefore it is an aim to reduce the operator time (cycle time) per piece of cloth, whereby - from an overall point of view - less operator time is required, or to achieve increased productivity per operator.
  • the manual handling of the pieces of cloth is reduced in that the operator time (cycle time) for the individual piece of cloth is reduced.
  • This is enabled in that the operator is to find only an edge of the piece of cloth which is subsequently to be arranged in a pair of conveyor clamps. Precisely due to the straightened edge describing a well defined section of the piece of cloth which can, in a simple and easy manner, be arranged/mounted in the securing means by a simple movement, the operator time for the individual piece of cloth can be reduced considerably.
  • the method and the apparatus according to the invention can advantageously be used for feeding pieces of cloth to a feeder of the type which is known la from WO 00/66828 .
  • the piece of cloth is transferred from a transfer position configured in a inlet station for the securing means, in that the securing means are conveyed to a position between two parallel sandwich conveyor belts configured in the direction of conveyance of the inlet station; and wherein the straightened edge of the piece of cloth is mounted in the securing means in the transfer position during advancement of the piece of cloth by the sandwich conveyor belts from a feeding position configured in the direction of conveyance opposite the transfer position.
  • the mounting of the piece of cloth in the securing means can be automated and further simplified as the extended fore edge of the piece of cloth is arranged in the feeding position, following which the sandwich conveyor belts advance the piece of cloth to the transfer position, where the straightened edge is taken over by the securing means.
  • the piece of cloth is conveyed on the endless conveyor rail with the straightened edge arranged transversally to the direction of conveyance or essentially transversally of the direction of conveyance.
  • a method is accomplished by which it is advantageous in particular cases to transport a straightened edge of the piece of cloth on an endless conveyor rail.
  • the piece of cloth is transferred from the securing means on the conveyor to the feeder in that the straightened edge on the piece of cloth is conveyed between a superjacent and a subjacent conveyor belt configured at the end of a bar, said bar being arranged transversally in relation to a direction of conveyance on the feeder.
  • a plurality of pieces of cloth are mounted on each their rail conveyor; and wherein each rail conveyor with a piece of cloth is subsequently conveyed out on the endless conveyor rail, where the rail conveyors with pieces of cloth form a buffer stock; and wherein the conveyor with the piece of cloth is conveyed out of the buffer stock for being fed to the feeder.
  • the rail conveyor with the piece of cloth is conveyed onto a section of the conveyor rail and conveyed to another feeder.
  • a method is accomplished which is advantageous in particular cases in connection with the advancement of pieces of cloth in advancement systems that comprise a first feeder and a second feeder.
  • the securing means comprise a pair of conveyor clamps that are arranged on the rail conveyor at a distance from each other and along an axis perpendicular to the direction of conveyance of the rail conveyor or essentially perpendicular to the direction of conveyance of the rail conveyor.
  • a pair of conveyor clamps is accomplished which is particularly advantageously used in connection with advancement of pieces of cloth to a feeder by securing of a straightened section of edge of the piece of cloth.
  • the securing means are configured for securing the straightened edge of the piece of cloth in a position transversally to the direction of conveyance, or essentially transversally to the direction of conveyance.
  • securing of the straightened edge of the piece of cloth is accomplished in a position which is advantageous in particular cases.
  • the endless conveyor rail comprises a buffer area which buffer area is configured in the direction of conveyance on the conveyor rail between a inlet station and said feeder.
  • a temporary storage of pieces of cloth on conveyor rail is accomplished which is advantageous in that particular case.
  • the endless conveyor rail comprises a buffer area configured on the conveyor rail between the feeder and the inlet station.
  • temporary storage of pieces of cloth on conveyor rail is accomplished which is advantageous in other particular cases.
  • the conveyor rail comprises a switching or one or more switchings.
  • a rail conveyor can be conveyed onto a rail section and that the rail sections can be divided into advantageous subsections.
