- the invention relates to a loom equipped with at least one actuating mechanism as mentioned above.
- a dobby 1 is intended to drive a heddle frame 2 of a loom M in an oscillating vertical movement represented by the arrows F 1 and F ' 1 .
- an actuating arm 11 of the dobby 1 is coupled, by connecting rods 3 and oscillating levers 4, to the frame 2.
- the trade M comprises several frames, only one of which is shown in FIG. figure 1 for the clarity of the drawing.
- the two rods 3 which attack the frame 2 have their respective upper ends 31 configured in a loop and which each define a bore 32 of circular section centered on an axis X 32 .
- Each end 31 is integral with the rest of the connecting rod 3 corresponding. Alternatively, it may be an end reported.
- Two devices 5 intended to cooperate each with the end 31 of a driving rod 3 are fixed in the lower part of the lower cross member 21 of the frame 2.
- One of these devices is more particularly visible to Figures 2 to 5 . It comprises a base flange 51 on which is riveted, by means of a not shown rivet, a pin 53 protruding from the face 51a of the flange 51 visible to the figure 3 .
- the pin 53 has a circular outer section centered on an axis X 53 .
- a bar 54 is used to fix the device 5 on the cross member 21 by means of two screws 55 represented by their center lines.
- a front flange 56 is disposed parallel to the flange 51 to which it is rigidly associated by five rivets, namely three rivets 57a through holes 54a formed in the bar 54 and two stepped rivets 57b of larger section than the rivets 57a.
- the pin 53 is not riveted to the flange 51 by an independent rivet but immobilized thereon by plastic deformation or riveting of its rear portion to the figure 3 .
- a plastic latch 58 is pivotally mounted around one of the rivets 57b, that is to say around its longitudinal axis X 57 which is perpendicular to the flanges 51 and 56.
- the latch 58 is interposed between the two flanges 51 and 56.
- the latch 58 comprises a heel 58a intended to cooperate with the face 31b of the end 31 of the rod 3 located opposite the flange 51 when this end is received in the device 5 in attachment configuration.
- the surface 31a is circular, with a rectilinear generatrix and with a circular section centered on the X axis 32 of the bore 32.
- the heel 58a has, on its side facing the flange 56, a return 58b which partially covers the face 31b when the latch 58 retains the end 31 around the pin 53.
- the return 58b prevents the end 31 away from the flange 51 when it has been placed around the pin 53.
- the return 58b immobilizes the end 31 parallel to the X axes 32 and X 53 which are then merged.
- the X axis 53 forms an axis of articulation for the rod 3 which can oscillate, with an angular amplitude of a few degrees around this axis, as represented by the arrow P at the figure 2 .
- the bore 32 is equipped with a sliding ring 34 on the pin 53.
- the pin 53 thus defines, by its central axis of symmetry X 53 , an axis of articulation of the connecting rod 3 on the frame 2.
- the latch 58 comprises an operating lug 58d which extends substantially opposite the bead 58a with respect to the X axis 57 in the mounted configuration of the device.
- the latch 58 also comprises a resilient tongue 58e which bears against the surface 54d of the bar 54 facing the pin 53, as visible in FIG. figure 2 .
- the tongue 58e which is integral with the rest of the latch 58, is configured to exert on it a torque C tending to tilt the heel 58a about the X axis 57 in the direction of the axis X 53 and the surface 31a when the rod 3 is in place around the pin 53.
- the flange 56 is generally U-shaped inverted and comprises two arms 56a and a base 56b connecting these two arms. Between the arms 56a is defined an opening O 56 which is open on the lower side of the flange, that is to say on its side facing the current portion 33 of the connecting rod 3, in the hooked configuration of the connecting rod and the frame .
- a lateral boss 58f formed on the latch 58 defines a surface 58g which abuts against the outer edge of the arm 56a when the latch 58 is subjected to the only torque C.
- the arm 56a thus constitutes a stop to the movement of the latch 58 under the effect of the C pair.
- the inner edges 56c of the arms 56a are decomposed into two concave portions 56c 1 and 56c 2 , the portions 56c 1 being configured in a circular arc, with a radius R 56 substantially equal to the radius R 31 of the surface 31a.
- the portions 56c 2 define with the edge 56d of the base 56b a recess.
- the portions 56c 1 of the edges 56c make it possible to guide the frame when the frame 2 is hooked onto the link 3 so as to align the X axis 32 with the X axis 53 of the pin 53.
- the operator can bring, judged, the device 5 generally above the end 31a, as shown in FIG. figure 4 , then move the frame 2 by a force F 2 in translation parallel to the flanges 51 to bring the edges 56c resting on the surface 31a of the end 31.
- the edges 56c are convergent since free end of the arms 56a, that is to say the lower side of the flange 56, to the edge 56d.
- the portion of the surface 31a which comes into contact with the edges 56c and, on the other hand, the portions 56c 1 , the end 31 is thus guided with respect to the device 5 to a position represented in figure 5 which is unequivocal with respect to the flange 56.
- the edges 56c are guided by their portions 56c 1 on the surface 31a to position the device 5 relative to the end 31.
- the arms 56a are configured so that the portions 56c 1 are centered on the X axis 53 so that, by its contact with these portions 56c 1 , the end 31 and its bore 32 are automatically centered on the X axis 53 , when the device 5 is moved by the effort F 2 .
- the end 31 comes, by a portion 31a 1 of its surface 31a, bearing against the internal radial surface 58c of the return 58b to which it transmits a effort F ' 2 which is the resultant of the effort F 2 .
- the return 58b and the heel 58a are thus pushed back by the force F ' 2 , as shown in FIG. figure 5 , against the torque C, in a rotational retraction movement around the latch 58 about the X axis 57 , as illustrated by the arrow E 58 at the figure 5 .
- the latch 58 is reduced, under the effect of the torque C exerted by the tongue 58e, to the position of the figure 2 where the return 58b retains the end 31 in place between the two flanges 51 and 56, opposing an extraction movement parallel to the X axis 33 and directed away from the flange 51.
- the movement of the frame 2 and the device 5 is an approach movement in which the device 5 is guided by its edges 56c 1 on the surface 31a of the end of connecting rod 31.
- the rod end 31 is guided by the edges 56c 1 .
- the relative guidance between the device 5 and the end 31 has the effect of aligning the X 32 and X axes 53 , which then makes it possible to easily engage the end 31 around the member 53, that is to say, to engage the member 53 in the bore 32.
- the attachment can be achieved without the operator visually control the pre-alignment of the end 31 and the device 5.
- the shape of the flanges 51 and 56 is modified to allow the mounting of the device 5 on a vertical post 22 of the frame 2.
- the flange 56 is extended by a tab 56 which comes to overlap a portion of the upright 22
- the flange 51 is also extended by a leg of the same type.
- the legs 56e and equivalent of the two flanges are assembled by means of rivets 57a which pass through the post 22. The attachment of the device 5 to the frame 2 is thus performed without resorting to a bar of the type of the bar 54 of the first embodiment.
- the invention has been shown for a frame driven by dobby 1. It is however applicable regardless of the exact type of armor mechanics which may be a basic armor mechanic.
- the portions 56c 1 are not necessarily in an arc. They can take any form adapted according to the geometry of the part of the external surface 31a with which they cooperate which is not necessarily circular section. In particular, the edges 56c can be configured in V, while the end 31 is generally shaped tip.
- the attachment mechanisms can be arranged on the bottom or on the top of the frame, according to the configuration of the transmission rods of the movement of the armor mechanics.

Description
La présente invention a trait à un dispositif d'accrochage entre un cadre de lisses et une bielle actionnée par une mécanique d'armure. L'invention a également trait à un cadre de lisses équipé d'un tel dispositif, à un mécanisme d'actionnement d'un tel cadre ainsi qu'à un métier à tisser équipé d'au moins un tel mécanisme.The present invention relates to a hooking device between a heald frame and a connecting rod actuated by a weave mechanism. The invention also relates to a heddle frame equipped with such a device, to an actuating mechanism of such a frame and to a loom equipped with at least one such mechanism.
Pour simplifier les opérations de montage et de démontage des cadres de lisses sur un métier à tisser, il est connu d'utiliser des dispositifs assurant l'accrochage et le décrochage des cadres par rapport à leurs bielles d'entraînement.
C'est à ces inconvénients qu'entend plus particulièrement remédier l'invention en proposant un dispositif avec lequel l'accrochage d'une bielle à un cadre de métier à tisser ou d'un cadre sur une bielle est beaucoup plus facile qu'avec les systèmes connus.It is these drawbacks that the invention intends to remedy more particularly by proposing a device with which the attachment of a rod to a loom frame or a frame on a rod is much easier than with known systems.
Dans cet esprit, l'invention concerne un dispositif d'accrochage entre un cadre de lisses et une bielle actionnée par une mécanique d'armure de métier à tisser, ce dispositif étant fixé sur le cadre et comportant un organe en saillie à section circulaire apte à être introduit dans un alésage ménagé dans une extrémité de bielle, cet organe définissant alors un axe d'articulation de la bielle. Ce dispositif est caractérisé en ce qu'il est pourvu de moyens de guidage relatif de l'organe en saillie et de l'extrémité de bielle vers une position d'alignement d'un axe central de l'alésage et de l'axe d'articulation défini par l'organe en saillie, avant introduction de cet organe dans cet alésage.In this spirit, the invention relates to a coupling device between a heald frame and a connecting rod actuated by a loom weave mechanism, this device being fixed to the frame and comprising a protruding member with a suitable circular section. to be introduced into a bore formed in a connecting rod end, this member then defining an axis of articulation of the connecting rod. This device is characterized in that it is provided with relative guide means of the protruding member and the end of connecting rod towards a position of alignment of a central axis of the bore and the axis of articulation defined by the protruding member, before introduction of this body into this bore.
Grâce à l'invention, il est possible à un opérateur d'utiliser les moyens d'alignement pour pré-positionner l'alésage d'extrémité d'une bielle et l'organe en saillie du dispositif fixé au cadre, avant d'engager effectivement cet organe dans cet alésage. Ceci permet à l'opérateur de travailler au jugé, voire en aveugle, sans avoir à vérifier visuellement le bon alignement de l'alésage et de l'organe en saillie, avant de pousser l'organe en saillie dans l'alésage.Thanks to the invention, it is possible for an operator to use the alignment means to pre-position the end bore of a connecting rod and the protruding member of the device attached to the frame, before engaging actually this organ in this bore. This allows the operator to work judging, even blind, without having to visually check the proper alignment of the bore and the protruding member, before pushing the member protruding into the bore.
Selon d'autres aspects avantageux mais non obligatoires de l'invention, un tel dispositif peut incorporer une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes, prises dans toute combinaison techniquement admissible :
- Les moyens d'alignement comprennent un flasque pourvu d'une ouverture d'accès de l'extrémité de bielle à l'organe en saillie, les bords de cette ouverture étant adaptés pour assurer le guidage relatif de la surface périphérique externe de cette extrémité et de l'organe en saillie vers la position d'alignement des axes précités. De préférence, cette ouverture est débouchante sur un côté du flasque et les bords précités sont au moins en partie convergents à partir de ce côté et globalement complémentaires d'une portion de la surface périphérique externe de l'extrémité de la bielle.
- Le dispositif comprend des moyens de retenue de l'organe en saillie dans l'alésage, ces moyens étant escamotables sous l'action de l'extrémité de la bielle lorsque la bielle approche d'une configuration d'alignement des axes précités en étant guidée par les moyens d'alignement. Ces moyens de retenue comprennent avantageusement un verrou, pivotant par rapport à une structure de support de l'organe, entre une première position, de retenue de l'extrémité de bielle parallèlement à l'axe d'articulation, et une seconde position, dans laquelle le verrou ne s'oppose pas au déplacement relatif de l'extrémité de bielle et du dispositif parallèlement à l'axe d'articulation. Des moyens de rappel du verrou vers sa position de retenue peuvent être prévus, notamment sous la forme d'une languette élastique monobloc avec le verrou.
- Le dispositif comprend un premier flasque sur lequel est fixé l'organe en saillie et un second flasque globalement parallèle au premier et qui porte les moyens d'alignement. Dans ce cas, le verrou est avantageusement monté pivotant entre les flasques, autour d'un axe globalement perpendiculaire à ceux-ci.
- The alignment means comprise a flange provided with an access opening from the connecting rod end to the protruding member, the edges of this opening being adapted to provide relative guidance of the outer peripheral surface of this end and of the organ in protrusion towards the alignment position of the aforementioned axes. Preferably, this opening is open on one side of the flange and the aforementioned edges are at least partly convergent from this side and generally complementary to a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the end of the connecting rod.
- The device comprises means for retaining the member projecting into the bore, these means being retractable under the action of the end of the connecting rod when the rod approaches an alignment configuration of the aforementioned axes being guided by the alignment means. These retaining means advantageously comprise a latch, pivotable relative to a support structure of the member, between a first position, retaining the connecting rod end parallel to the axis of articulation, and a second position, in which the lock does not oppose the relative movement of the rod end and the device parallel to the axis of articulation. Means for returning the latch to its retaining position may be provided, in particular in the form of a resilient one-piece tongue with the latch.
- The device comprises a first flange on which is fixed the protruding member and a second flange generally parallel to the first and which carries the alignment means. In this case, the latch is advantageously pivotally mounted between the flanges around an axis generally perpendicular to them.
L'invention concerne également un cadre de lisses de métier à tisser équipé d'un dispositif d'accrochage tel que mentionné ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a heddle frame of a loom equipped with a hooking device as mentioned above.
En outre, l'invention concerne un mécanisme d'actionnement d'un cadre de lisses d'un métier à tisser à partir d'une mécanique d'armure, ce mécanisme comprenant au moins une bielle dont une extrémité est configurée en boucle autour d'un alésage circulaire. Ce mécanisme est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend également un dispositif tel que mentionné ci-dessus dont l'organe en saillie définit un axe d'articulation pour l'extrémité de la bielle et dont les moyens de guidage relatif sont aptes à guider cette extrémité et l'organe en saillie l'un par rapport à l'autre vers une position d'alignement de l'axe d'articulation précité et d'un axe central de l'alésage, avant introduction de l'organe en saillie dans cet alésage.In addition, the invention relates to a mechanism for actuating a heddle frame of a loom from a weave mechanism, this mechanism comprising at least one connecting rod whose one end is configured in loop around a circular bore. This mechanism is characterized in that it also comprises a device as mentioned above, the protruding member defines a hinge axis for the end of the connecting rod and whose relative guide means are able to guide this end and the protruding member relative to each other to a position of alignment of the aforementioned hinge pin and a central axis of the bore, before introduction of the protruding member in this bore.
Avantageusement, le dispositif est monté sur un montant du cadre de lisses.Advantageously, the device is mounted on an amount of the heald frame.
L'invention concerne enfin un métier à tisser équipé d'au moins un mécanisme d'actionnement tel que mentionné ci-dessus.Finally, the invention relates to a loom equipped with at least one actuating mechanism as mentioned above.
L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement à la lumière de la description qui va suivre de deux modes de réalisation d'un dispositif d'accrochage, d'un cadre de lisses, d'un mécanisme d'actionnement et d'un métier à tisser conformes à son principe, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en référence aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :

A la
Les deux bielles 3 qui attaquent le cadre 2 ont leurs extrémités supérieures respectives 31 configurées en boucle et qui définissent chacune un alésage 32 à section circulaire centré sur un axe X32. Chaque extrémité 31 est monobloc avec le reste de la bielle 3 correspondante. En variante, il peut s'agir d'une extrémité rapportée.The two
Deux dispositifs 5 destinés à coopérer chacun avec l'extrémité 31 d'une bielle d'attaque 3 sont fixés en partie basse de la traverse inférieure 21 du cadre 2.Two
L'un de ces dispositifs est plus particulièrement visible aux
Un verrou 58 en matière plastique est monté pivotant autour d'un des rivets 57b, c'est-à-dire autour de son axe longitudinal X57 qui est perpendiculaire aux flasques 51 et 56.A
En configuration montée du dispositif 5, le verrou 58 est intercalé entre les deux flasques 51 et 56. Le verrou 58 comprend un talon 58a destiné à coopérer avec la face 31b de l'extrémité 31 de la bielle 3 située à l'opposé du flasque 51 lorsque cette extrémité est reçue dans le dispositif 5 en configuration d'accrochage.In mounted configuration of the
La surface 31a est circulaire, à génératrice rectiligne et à section circulaire centrée sur l'axe X32 de l'alésage 32.The
Comme il ressort plus particulièrement de la
Lorsque la bielle 3 est accrochée sur le dispositif 5, c'est-à-dire lorsque le pion 53 est engagé dans l'alésage 32, l'axe X53 forme un axe d'articulation pour la bielle 3 qui peut osciller, avec une amplitude angulaire de quelques degrés, autour de cet axe, comme représenté par la flèche P à la
Le verrou 58 comprend une patte de manoeuvre 58d qui s'étend sensiblement à l'opposé du talon 58a par rapport à l'axe X57 en configuration montée du dispositif. Le verrou 58 comprend également une languette élastique 58e qui vient en appui contre la surface 54d de la barrette 54 orientée vers le pion 53, comme visible à la
Pour la clarté du dessin, les parties représentées en traits pointillés à la
Le flasque 56 est globalement en forme de U renversé et comprend deux bras 56a et une base 56b reliant ces deux bras. Entre les bras 56a est définie une ouverture O56 qui est débouchante sur le côté inférieur du flasque, c'est-à-dire sur son côté orienté vers la partie courante 33 de la bielle 3, en configuration accrochée de la bielle et du cadre.The
Un bossage latéral 58f ménagé sur le verrou 58 définit une surface 58g qui vient en appui contre le bord externe du bras 56a lorsque le verrou 58 est soumis au seul couple C. Le bras 56a constitue ainsi une butée au mouvement du verrou 58 sous l'effet du couple C.A
Les bords internes 56c des bras 56a se décomposent en deux portions concaves 56c1 et 56c2, les portions 56c1 étant configurées en arc de cercle, avec un rayon R56 sensiblement égal au rayon R31 de la surface 31a. Les portions 56c2 définissent avec le bord 56d de la base 56b un renfoncement.The
Les portions 56c1 des bords 56c permettent de guider le cadre lors de l'accrochage du cadre 2 sur la bielle 3, de façon à aligner l'axe X32 avec l'axe X53 du pion 53. En effet, l'opérateur peut amener, au jugé, le dispositif 5 globalement au-dessus de l'extrémité 31a, comme représenté à la
Compte tenu de la complémentarité de formes entre d'une part, la partie de la surface 31a qui vient en contact des bords 56c et, d'autre part, les portions 56c1, l'extrémité 31 est ainsi guidée par rapport au dispositif 5 vers une position représentée à la
Dans la partie finale du mouvement d'approche guidé par les portions 56c1 des bords 56c, l'extrémité 31 vient, par une partie 31a1 de sa surface 31a, en appui contre la surface radiale interne 58c du retour 58b auquel elle transmet un effort F'2 qui est la résultante dé l'effort F2. Le retour 58b et le talon 58a sont ainsi repoussés par l'effort F'2, comme représenté à la
Lorsque l'extrémité 31 vient au contact des bords internes des bras 56a, c'est-à-dire lorsque le flasque 56 a été déplacé pour « coiffer » l'extrémité 31, et lorsque le verrou a été repoussé par l'extrémité 31 vers la position de la
Une fois l'extrémité 31 en place autour du pion 53, le verrou 58 est ramené, sous l'effet du couple C exercé par la languette 58e, vers la position de la
Ainsi, si l'on se place dans le référentiel de la bielle 3, le mouvement du cadre 2 et du dispositif 5 est un mouvement d'approche dans lequel le dispositif 5 se guide par ses bords 56c1 sur la surface 31a de l'extrémité de bielle 31. Dans le référentiel du cadre 2 et du dispositif 5, l'extrémité de bielle 31 est guidée par les bords 56c1. Dans tous les cas, le guidage relatif entre le dispositif 5 et l'extrémité 31 a pour effet d'aligner les axes X32 et X53, ce qui permet alors d'engager facilement l'extrémité 31 autour de l'organe 53, c'est-à-dire d'engager l'organe 53 dans l'alésage 32.Thus, if one is placed in the reference frame of the
On obtient ainsi un verrouillage automatique de la bielle 3 dans le dispositif 5, sans qu'il soit nécessaire pour l'opérateur d'agir directement sur le verrou 58.This results in an automatic locking of the connecting
Compte tenu du caractère automatique de ce verrouillage et du guidage vers une position univoque obtenu grâce aux portions 56c1 des bords 56c, l'accrochage peut être réalisé sans que l'opérateur contrôle visuellement le pré-alignement de l'extrémité 31 et du dispositif 5.Given the automatic nature of this locking and guiding to a unambiguous position obtained through the
Lorsqu'il convient de décrocher le cadre 2 de la bielle 3, il suffit à l'opérateur d'appuyer sur la patte 58d dans le sens de la flèche F5 à la
Dans le second mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté à la
L'invention a été représentée pour un cadre entraîné par une ratière 1. Elle est cependant applicable indépendamment du type exact de la mécanique d'armure qui peut être une mécanique d'armure fondamentale.The invention has been shown for a frame driven by dobby 1. It is however applicable regardless of the exact type of armor mechanics which may be a basic armor mechanic.
Les portions 56c1 ne sont pas forcément en arc de cercle. Elles peuvent prendre toute forme adaptée en fonction de la géométrie de la partie de la surface externe 31a avec laquelle elles coopèrent qui n'est pas forcément à section circulaire. En particulier, les bords 56c peuvent être configurés en V, alors que l'extrémité 31 est globalement en forme de pointe.The
Dans les deux modes de réalisation décrits, les mécanismes d'accrochage peuvent être disposés sur le dessous ou sur le dessus du cadre, suivant la configuration des bielles de transmission du mouvement de la mécanique d'armure.In the two embodiments described, the attachment mechanisms can be arranged on the bottom or on the top of the frame, according to the configuration of the transmission rods of the movement of the armor mechanics.
