Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shedding device included in a loom that performs a weaving operation using warp threads let off from at least two warp beams, and to a gaiting process performed in such a loom after the warp threads on one of the warp beams become equal to or less than a predetermined amount and the warp beam has been replaced with a new one.
  • gaiting process in the present invention refers to a series of steps that are performed between a point when a warp beam is replaced and a point when the loom is restarted for a continuous operation.
  • a loom that performs a weaving operation using warp threads let off from at least two warp beams
  • a pile loom and a sucker loom For example, when a weaving operation is performed in a pile loom, the consumption of pile warp per unit time is greater than the consumption of ground warp per unit time. Therefore, there are often cases where the pile warp threads fall below a predetermined amount in the course of the weaving operation (namely, in a state where the ground warp threads are still remaining on the ground-warp beam). This implies that the warp beam for the pile-warp threads needs replacement quite frequently.
  • a gaiting process is performed in which the warp threads already set in the loom (namely, the warp threads from the previous warp beam) are cut at a position behind the dropper (opposite side of the cloth fell) in order to keep the warp threads extended through the dropper, the healds, and the reed. Then, the cut ends of the warp threads and the warp threads let off from the new warp beam are connected to each other by tying them together. Subsequently, the warp threads are let off so as to move the tied knots of the warp threads to an area close to the cloth fell. Finally, after an adjusting operation, the loom is restarted for a continuous operation.
  • a loom disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 8-284045 applies a technique in which a let-off device and a take-up device are driven while the loom is stopped so that the warp threads can be taken up while being let off from the warp beam.
  • the present invention provides a shedding device included in a loom that performs a weaving operation using warp threads let off from at least two warp beams, the shedding device including controlling means for electrically controlling individual movements of a plurality of heald frames.
  • the shedding device is characterized by including a standby-frame setting unit having set therein standby information on specific heald frames of the plurality of heald frames, the specific heald frames including heald frames that correspond to the warp threads let off from one of the at least two warp beams.
  • the standby information is used for setting the specific heald frames in a standby state for a predetermined period.
  • the standby-frame setting unit is connected to the controlling means.
  • the standby information set in the standby-frame setting unit may include frame numbers designating the specific heald frames and a standby period of the specific heald frames.
  • the present invention also provides a gaiting method in a loom that performs a weaving operation using warp threads let off from at least two warp beams, the method being performed after one warp beam of the at least two warp beams has been replaced with a new one.
  • the method is characterized by including the steps of connecting the warp threads already in the loom and formerly let off from the previous warp beam to warp threads let off from the new warp beam; setting specific heald frames included in a plurality of heald frames in a standby state at a predetermined upper or lower position, the specific heald frames including heald frames that correspond to the warp threads let off from the new warp beam; and allowing the loom to perform a weaving operation by driving the remaining heald frames excluding the specific heald frames in a shedding motion for a predetermined standby period while maintaining the specific heald frames in the standby state.
  • the loom may be a pile loom, and the one warp beam of the at least two warp beams may be a pile warp beam.
  • the specific heald frames correspond to pile warp threads let off from the pile warp beam and have the pile warp threads extending therethrough.
  • the pile loom may perform the weaving operation over the predetermined standby period in the aforementioned allowing step by using only ground warp threads while maintaining the specific heald frames corresponding to the pile warp threads in the standby state.
  • the weaving operation performed over the predetermined standby period using the ground warp threads may be implemented by driving the heald frames that correspond to the ground warp threads on the basis of a shedding pattern for ground weaving.
  • the tied knots of the connected warp threads are automatically shifted towards the cloth fell. This process is performed within a short period of time and is not troublesome for the operator.
  • the knots are being shifted, at least some of the warp threads other than the connected warp threads are let off towards the take-up side while being interwoven with weft threads. Consequently, unlike the case where the pulling from the take-up side is implemented while merely letting off the warp threads, the pulling is implemented stably in a state similar to that at the time of continuous operation. Accordingly, this ensures proper shifting of the knots and achieves a smooth gaiting process.
  • Figs. 1 to 3 illustrate an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
  • the embodiment to be described below is directed to a pile loom equipped with two warp beams, which are a ground warp beam and a pile warp beam, and to a gaiting process to be performed when the pile warp beam has been replaced.
  • the pile loom shown in the drawings is a cloth-shifting-type pile loom which form piles by periodically changing the position of the cloth fell using a terry motion mechanism.
  • a pile loom 1 includes two warp beams, which are a pile-warp beam 2 around which a plurality of pile warp threads PT are wound in a sheet-like manner and a ground-warp beam 3 around which a plurality of ground warp threads GT are wound in a sheet-like manner.
  • the pile warp threads PT When the pile-warp beam 2 is rotated by a let-off motor m1, the pile warp threads PT are let off from the pile-warp beam 2 and are wound around two guide rollers 6, 6 and a pile-warp tension roller 7 disposed downstream of the guide rollers 6, 6.
  • the pile warp threads PT then pass through healds H of corresponding heald frames HF and through a reed R so as to be guided to a cloth fell CF of a woven cloth W.
  • the pile loom 1 shown in Fig. 1 has ten heald frames HF, of which the first and second heald frames HF from the cloth fell CF and the ninth and tenth heald frames HF from the cloth fell CF correspond to the pile warp threads PT.
  • the pile-warp tension roller 7 is supported by a loom frame (not shown) by means of a tension lever 8 and a support shaft 9.
  • the tension lever 8 is rotatably supported by the support shaft 9 at a specific position of the loom frame.
  • the pile-warp tension roller 7 is supported in a revolvable fashion around the support shaft 9.
  • the tension lever 8 is biased by means of biasing means (not shown), such as a spring and a driving motor, in a direction for applying tension to the pile warp threads PT.
  • This biasing force acts on the pile warp threads PT via the pile-warp tension roller 7, whereby predetermined tension is applied to the pile warp threads PT.
  • the ground warp threads GT are let off from the ground-warp beam 3 and are wound around a ground-warp tension roller 10. Similar to the pile warp threads PT, the ground warp threads GT then pass through the corresponding healds H and through the reed R so as to be guided to the cloth fell CF.
  • the ground-warp tension roller 10 is supported by an intermediate portion of a support lever 11 by means of a shaft 10a.
  • the support lever 11 is supported by the loom frame by means of a support shaft 12.
  • the support shaft 12 is rotatably supported by the loom frame, and the support lever 11 is attached to the support shaft 12 in a relatively non-rotatable fashion. Consequently, with respect to the loom frame, the ground-warp tension roller 10 is supported in a revolvable fashion around the support shaft 12.
  • the support shaft 12 has a tension lever 13 attached thereto in a relatively non-rotatable fashion.
  • the tension lever 13 has a first end that is secured to the support shaft 12 and a second end that is supported by the loom frame by means of a support shaft 4.
  • the second end of the tension lever 13 and the support shaft 4 have a compression spring 14 and a tension detector 15, such as a load cell, disposed therebetween.
  • a tension detector 15 such as a load cell
  • the driving of the let-off motor m1, which is provided for rotating the pile-warp beam 2, is controlled by a pile-warp let-off controller 16.
  • a pile-warp let-off controller 16 Provided near the tension lever 8 that supports the pile-warp tension roller 7 is a displacement detector 5 for detecting positional displacement of the tension lever 8.
  • the amount of pile warp threads PT let off per unit rotation angle of the pile-warp beam 2 changes proportionally to the amount of consumption of the pile warp threads PT (namely, the beam diameter of the pile-warp beam 2).
  • the let-off amount of pile warp threads PT per unit rotation angle changes, the tension of the pile warp threads PT changes, thus causing the tension lever 8 to become displaced.
  • the displacement of the tension lever 8 is sampled periodically using the displacement detector 5 so that the amount of consumption of the pile warp threads PT can be indirectly determined.
  • a detection signal of the displacement detector 5 is output to the pile-warp let-off controller 16. Based on the detection signal (i.e. the amount of consumption of the pile warp threads PT) from the displacement detector 5, the pile-warp let-off controller 16 controls the driving of the let-off motor m1 such that the let-off amount of pile warp threads PT per unit rotation angle is kept at a predetermined amount regardless of a change in the beam diameter of the pile-warp beam 2.
  • the pile-warp let-off controller 16 calculates a correctional rotation speed value based on the detection signal from the displacement detector 5 and then adds or subtracts this calculated correctional rotation speed value to or from a basic rotation speed value of the let-off motor m1, which is received from a main controller 20 of the pile loom 1. Subsequently, based on the determined rotation speed value with the addition or subtraction of the correctional rotation speed value, the pile-warp let-off controller 16 controls the driving of the let-off motor m1 so that the pile warp threads PT are let off constantly from the pile-warp beam 2 during a weaving operation.
  • the pile-warp let-off controller 16 is a feedback control system and normally responds to a large time constant. Therefore, the pile-warp let-off controller 16 does not control temporal forward/backward displacement of the pile-warp tension roller 7 in each cycle of the pile loom 1, which may occur in response to a shedding motion or pile forming process.
  • the driving of the let-off motor m2, which is provided for rotating the ground-warp beam 3, is controlled by a ground-warp let-off controller 17.
  • the ground-warp tension roller 10 is connected to the tension detector 15 with the support lever 11, the tension lever 13, and the compression spring 14 disposed therebetween.
  • the tension detector 15 detects the load applied on the ground-warp tension roller 10 from the ground warp threads GT, or in other words, detects the tension of the ground warp threads GT.
  • a detection signal of the tension detector 15 is output to the ground-warp let-off controller 17.
  • the ground-warp let-off controller 17 controls the driving of the let-off motor m2 such that the tension of the ground warp threads GT matches a preliminarily set target tension value.
  • the ground-warp let-off controller 17 calculates a correctional rotation speed value based on a difference between the detection signal from the tension detector 15 and the preliminarily set target value. Moreover, the ground-warp let-off controller 17 calculates a basic speed value of the let-off motor m2 on the basis of, for example, a beam-diameter signal received from a beam-diameter detector (not shown), which is provided for detecting the beam diameter of the ground-warp beam 3, and the operating speed and the set density of the pile loom 1 received from the main controller 20 of the pile loom 1.
  • the ground-warp let-off controller 17 then adds or subtracts the correctional rotation speed value to or from the calculated basic speed value so as to determine a rotation speed value for driving the let-off motor m2.
  • the ground-warp let-off controller 17 controls the driving of the let-off motor m2 based on this determined rotation speed value, whereby the ground-warp beam 3 is driven such that the tension of the ground warp threads GT matches the target value.
  • the ground-warp let-off controller 17 has an integrating circuit with a large time constant.
  • the ground-warp let-off controller 17 compensates for a temporal tension fluctuation in the pile warp threads PT in each cycle of the pile loom 1, which may occur in response to a shedding motion or pile forming process.
  • the pile warp threads PT and the ground warp threads GT let off from the corresponding warp beams 2, 3 in the above-described manner form a shed in response to a vertical movement of the corresponding heald frames HF.
  • a weft thread (not shown) is inserted through the shed formed by the pile warp threads PT and the ground warp threads GT and is then beaten against the cloth fell CF with the reed R, thereby forming the woven cloth W.
  • the woven cloth W is wound around a cloth guide 21 and is pulled from the side of the cloth fell CF towards a take-up beam 24 by a take-up roller (surface roller) 22.
  • the woven cloth W then passes through two guide rollers 23, 23 so as to be taken up by the take-up beam 24.
  • the cloth guide 21 is supported by an intermediate portion of a support lever 25 by means of a fulcrum shaft 21a.
  • the support lever 25 is rotatably supported by the loom frame by means of a support shaft 25a.
  • a take-up motor m3 controlled by the take-up controller 18 rotates the take-up roller 22 in synchronization with a main shaft MS at a rotation speed that gives the woven cloth W a predetermined density set in the main controller 20.
  • the take-up beam 24 is rotated by known driving means (not shown), such as a driving motor.
  • the pile loom 1 is a cloth-shifting-type pile loom that forms piles by shifting the cloth fell CF with respect to the beating position of the reed R.
  • the shifting of the cloth fell CF involves moving the ground-warp tension roller 10 and the cloth guide 21 constituting a terry motion mechanism in front-back directions.
  • the rocking lever 26 is attached in a relatively non-rotatable fashion to a rotary shaft 26a that is rotatably supported by the loom frame, such that the rocking lever 26 is rockable with respect to the loom frame.
  • the rotary shaft 26a is connected to a driving device 29 and is driven by the driving device 29 in a reciprocable fashion.
  • the driving device 29 may be defined by a designated driving motor, or by a cam or a crank mechanism having the main shaft MS of the pile loom 1 as a driving source.
  • the shedding device according to the present invention can electrically control the driving of the heald frames HF.
  • Examples of the shedding device are an electronic dobby shedding device and an electrically-operated shedding device (namely, a shedding device that drives heald frames with designated motors).
  • the description below is directed to an example in which the shedding device is an electronic dobby shedding device.

  • the shedding-pattern setting unit 19c has a shedding pattern set therein.
  • the shedding pattern indicates upper and lower positions for all the heald frames HF for every repeat process consisting of a plurality of weaving cycles.
  • the shed controller 19a determines a cycle number in each repeat process of the shedding pattern.
  • the shed controller 19a then controls the magnetization and demagnetization of the solenoids in correspondence to the heald frames HF on the basis of the determined cycle number and the shedding pattern set in the shedding-pattern setting unit 19c. Accordingly, each of the heald frames HF is driven under a mode that is based on the shedding pattern.
  • the shed controller 19a is also provided with a standby-frame setting unit 30.
  • the standby-frame setting unit 30 has standby information on designated specific heald frames HF set therein, the standby information being used for setting the specific heald frames HF in a standby state at a set position.

  • a weaving operation using the ground warp threads GT is performed while the heald frames HF for the pile warp threads PT are maintained in a standby state. Consequently, as the weaving operation proceeds, a section of the woven cloth W positioned at the cloth fell CF at the time of the replacement process of the pile-warp beam 2 is shifted towards the take-up side.

  • the ground-warp beam 3, the take-up roller 22, and the like are driven based on the same weaving condition as that at the time of continuous operation.
  • the weaving condition for the gaiting-weaving operation may be different from that for the continuous operation.
  • the tension of the ground warp threads GT at the time of the gaiting-weaving operation may be set lower than that for the continuous operation, or the weft density at the time of the gaiting-weaving operation may be set rougher than for the continuous operation.
  • the standby position for the heald frames in the standby state is set at the uppermost position of the heald frames when driven based on a shedding pattern in the above embodiment
  • the standby position may alternatively be set at the lowermost position.
  • the standby position may be set to a position that is different from the uppermost position and the lowermost position as long as the position does not interfere with the weaving operation.
  • not all of the heald frames to be set in the standby state have to be maintained at the same position for the standby state.
  • half of the heald frames to be set in the standby state may be set at the uppermost position for the standby state while the other half may be set at the lowermost position for the standby state.
  • the standby position for the heald frames in the present invention may be set in an arbitrary manner as long as they do not interfere with the weaving operation.
