Definitions

  • the invention relates to a drawing-in machine for drawing warp threads of a warp in elements of a harness and a corresponding method for drawing warp threads.
  • the warp threads are usually separated individually from the warp and the respective separated warp threads individually fed into those elements of a harness, which are associated with the respective warp.
  • the warp threads are generally initially arranged in such a way that they form a (warp) thread layer (preferably within one plane and each warp threads arranged parallel to one another).
  • the thread layer is usually stretched and stretched on a so-called thread frame between two clamping rails - an upper clamping rail and a lower clamping rail.
  • a separating agent from the layer, then held by a thread clamp and then below the upper Cut clamping rail.
  • the separated warp thread in the region of a longitudinal section which extends between the two clamping rails, so far away from the warp thread layer that at the lower end, ie above the lower clamping rail, a retraction means, such as a pull-in hook, capture the separated warp can.
  • the retraction moves back with each detected warp thread and thus pulls this warp with him and finally tears this completely out of the thread clamp.
  • the required clamping force of the thread clamp is different. Also, the required clamping force may vary as the retraction speed (i.e., the speed at which the retraction means moves during retraction) is changed. To enable optimization, the clamping force of the thread clamp is adjustable.
  • the known Einziehmaschinen have the disadvantage that the clamping force can be changed only on the occasion of a change from one to another warp. If warp threads with different properties with respect to their coefficient of friction are used within the same warp, an optimum has to be sought or compromise selected or the feed speed adapted to adjust the different properties of all the warp threads of the warp wear and prevent, for example, that individual warp threads are damaged by the action of the thread clamp and / or the drawing-in means.
  • the conversion of a drawing-in machine or finding a suitable optimum for the clamping force and the feed speed are usually complex, especially when often warp threads are processed from different materials. To change the clamping force of the thread clamp is usually a manual intervention of an operator necessary.
  • the efficiency of the operation is generally reduced.
  • the respective clamping force or the retraction speed must not exceed certain predetermined limits, for example with regard to particularly sensitive warp threads.
  • the time that is required to collect all the warp threads of a warp is therefore essentially determined by those warp threads that are particularly sensitive and therefore may be drawn only with the lowest collection speed, especially since all warp threads of the same warp held only with the same clamping force and the same feed speed can be fed.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to avoid the disadvantages mentioned and to provide a Einziehmaschine for feeding warp threads of a warp in elements of a woven harness, which allows efficient, high-quality processing of warp threads of materials with different material properties. Furthermore, a corresponding method for drawing warp threads should be defined.
  • the drawing-in machine comprises a measuring device for detecting at least one yarn parameter of the respective warp thread, wherein the thread clamp and / or the drawing-in means are controllable in dependence on at least one of the yarn parameters respectively detected by the measuring device.
  • each warp thread can be characterized before retraction in terms of its individual characteristics and the control device can take into account in real time on the individual properties of each warp thread in the control of the Einziehreaes.
  • the drawing machine can be optimally adjusted to the processing of each individual thread in real time - depending on its properties.
  • a manual adjustment of the clamping force is unnecessary when using warp threads with different warp threads, which are characterized by different yarn parameters. This is obviously particularly advantageous when warp threads with different material properties are to be processed, e.g.
  • a warp to be processed which itself consists of a sequence of warp yarns with different yarn parameters.
  • the yarn parameters which can be detected by the respective measuring device may be different.
  • the measuring device comprises a first optical A system for generating a first image of the respective warp held and an image processing system for processing the first image, wherein the respective yarn parameters are detectable by the image processing system.
  • yarn parameters can be detected, which are accessible to an optical inspection and can be determined by optical means.
  • this measuring device can provide further information about the current operating state, which can be used to control the operating sequence.
  • the measuring device makes it possible, for example, to determine the edge of a thread layer and thus to determine the location of that warp thread of a warp, which is to be processed as a rule first.
  • the measuring device thus enables a precise positioning of the drawing-in machine relative to the particular warp to be processed. Furthermore, it allows the measuring device to determine whether a warp thread was separated when an action of the separating agent on the respective thread layer, and if so, whether only one warp thread was separated. In this way, the measuring device makes it possible to detect operating errors of the drawing-in machine and, if necessary, to initiate measures for error correction.
  • the measuring means further allows control over whether the warping machine feeds the warp yarns in the predetermined one Feeds into the elements of the weaving table.
  • the yarn parameters (actual values) of a separated warp yarn detected by the measuring device can be compared with the known yarn parameters (desired values) of the warp yarn, which according to the predetermined order of the warp yarns Retraction should be provided.
  • Such a comparison of actual values and nominal values makes it possible to check whether the order of the respective warp threads was reversed during the handling of the respective warp chain or not.
  • a further development of the above-mentioned measuring device is based on the measuring device comprising, in addition to the first optical system for producing a first image of the respective held warp thread, a second optical system for producing a second image of this warp thread and an image processing system for processing the second image, wherein the two images represent the respective thread from different perspectives and the respective yarn parameters can be determined with the aid of the image processing system.
  • the two optical systems enable a recording of a stereoscopic image, which is composed of the first image generated with the first optical system and the second image generated with the second optical system.
  • An evaluation of the stereoscopic image makes it possible to use 3D spatial information to characterize the respective warp threads.
  • This 3D spatial information allows - in comparison to an evaluation of only 2-dimensional images - a more accurate characterization of the respective warp threads, in particular with regard to their spatial position and their structure.
  • the aforesaid yarn parameters (ix) - (xi) include determining whether the respective warp yarn consists of staple fiber yarn, monofilament yarn or multifilament yarn, or comprises one of these yarn types.
  • Another variant of the drawing-in machine has a measuring device which comprises a force sensor for detecting a force acting on the respectively held warp thread, for example for detecting a force acting in the longitudinal direction of the warp thread.
  • the force sensor enables the detection of yarn parameters that characterize the warp properties, such as the tear strength or elastic constants of the warp.
  • the thread clamp can be actuated as a function of at least one parameter controllable by the control device, and at least one of the respective controllable parameters of the thread clamp can be changed by the control device as a function of at least one of the yarn parameters detected by the measuring device.
  • the thread clamp can be controlled by means of the control device such that the clamping force of the thread clamp and / or a time profile of the clamping force of the thread clamp can be changed as a function of the respectively detected yarn parameters.
  • the clamping force may assume different values for warp threads which differ in terms of friction with respect to the surface of the thread clamp or with regard to their extensibility or their sensitivity to mechanical loads. Accordingly, the speed at which the thread clamp can be opened to release the respective warp thread can be varied depending on the yarn parameters.
  • the drawing-in means can be actuated as a function of at least one parameter controllable by the control device and at least one of the respective controllable parameters of the drawing-in means can be changed by the control device as a function of at least one of the yarn parameters detected by the measuring device.
  • the drawing-in means for retracting the respective warp thread of a predetermined path movable, wherein a speed and / or acceleration of the Einziehstoffs depending on the respectively detected Garnparametern and / or a position of the Einziehstoffs is changeable.
  • the speed and / or the acceleration of the drawing-in means can, for example, be varied selectively along the respective path of the drawing-in means, for example as a function of the tensile strength, the bending ability and / or the brittleness of the respective warp thread. In this way it is achieved that each warp thread can be drawn in the shortest possible time without damaging the warp thread (for example, thread breaks or thread breaks can be avoided).
  • the duration of an operating cycle of the drawing machine for processing a warp thread can thus be minimized individually for each warp thread. Accordingly, the time required to retract all warp threads of a warp by means of the drawing machine into the elements of the weaving harness is minimized.
  • An embodiment of the drawing-in machine comprises a memory for storing the yarn parameters respectively detected by the measuring device.
  • the yarn parameters detected during the processing of a first warp can be stored.
  • the stored yarn parameters of this first warp can then be used to control the picking machine if a second warp is processed with the same sequence of warp yarns as the first warp.
  • At least one of the respective controllable parameters of the thread clamp and / or at least one of the respective controllable parameters of the drawing-in means can be changed by the control device as a function of predetermined data, which are assigned to the respective warp threads individually and in one Memory are provided or the control device from an external data source are available.
  • predetermined data can be, for example, characteristic yarn parameters of the respective warp threads, which can not be readily determined by means of the respective measuring device, but nevertheless influence the behavior of the warp threads during drawing in. For example, it is difficult to characterize the stickiness, slipperiness (slipperiness) or elastic properties of warp yarns with a measuring device based on an optical inspection.
  • the thread clamp is actuated in dependence on at least one parameter controllable by the control device, wherein at least one of the respective controllable parameters of the thread clamp determined by the control device in dependence on at least one of each detected by the measuring device yarn parameters of the respective warp to be recovered and / or changed.
  • the retraction means is actuated in dependence on at least one parameter controllable by the control device, wherein at least one of the respective controllable parameters of the retraction means is determined by the control device as a function of at least one of the respective yarn parameters of the respective warp thread to be retracted / or changed.
  • the yarn parameters of the warp threads of a warp are detected by the measuring device and the stored yarn parameters are used to control the feeding of warp threads of another warp into elements of a weaving harness in dependence on the stored yarn parameters.
  • the storage of the yarn parameters simplifies the processing of several warp strings in succession, provided that the warp threads each have an identical sequence of warp threads (ie, the respective nth warp threads of the respective warp threads are characterized by identical yarn parameters in each case).
  • the respectively detected yarn parameters the warp threads of a first warp each serve as set values for the yarn parameters of the warp threads of another warp to be processed after the first warp.

If exactly one warp thread was separated and brought into the test position, the image processing system 43 determines the yarn parameters of the respective warp thread, in particular at least one of the mentioned yarn parameters (i) to (xi).
  • the warp thread 30.2 is separated from the thread layer 30 and is currently in the test position.
  • the yarn parameters of the warp thread 30.2 detected in the manner mentioned are transmitted via the communication link 25.2 transmitted to the control device 25 and stored in a memory 26 of the control device 25.
  • the warp thread 30.1 has already been subjected to the same inspection by the measuring device 39 in a previous work step. In the in Fig. 8 Therefore, the respective yarn parameters of the warp 30.1 have already been detected, transmitted to the control unit 25 and stored in the memory 26.
  • the control device 25 is connected to the thread clamp 35 via a communication link 25.3.
  • the drive motor 37 of the thread clamp 35 can be controlled via the communication connection 25.3 in order to close and / or open the thread clamp 35 and / or to control the momentary magnitude of the clamping force F.
  • Fig. 8 shows the thread clamp 35 in two different positions Z1 and Z2, wherein the thread clamp 35 in the position Z1 (shown by solid lines) is opened while the thread clamp 35 is closed in the position Z2 (the position of the clamping element 36.2 is for this case marked with dashed lines).
  • the thread clamp 35 can be controlled as a function of at least one of the yarn parameters detected by the measuring device 39.
  • the clamping force F of the thread clamp 35 and / or the time course F (t) of the clamping force F of the thread clamp 35 are variable as a function of the respectively detected yarn parameters.
  • the memory 26 of the control device 25 contains specifications of a plurality of preprogrammed courses F n (t) of the clamping force F of the thread clamp 35 as a function of the time t, which are respectively adapted to the material properties of different threads (the index n in the designation F n (t) should in this context distinguish between different time profiles F (t) of the clamping force F).
  • the control device has a control program, which in each case assigns one of the preprogrammed courses F n (t) of the clamping force to the respectively detected yarn parameters of a warp thread.
  • the respective assignment of yarn parameters and preprogrammed progressions Fn (t) can be formed, for example, on the basis of mathematical functions or relations previously specified on the basis of experimental data and empirical values. Such experimental data and empirical values can be obtained, for example, in test runs of the drawing-in machine 1 when drawing in warp threads with different yarn parameters.
  • the retraction means 60 and the cutting device 50 are also controlled by the control device 25 as a function of at least one of the yarn parameters respectively detected by the measuring device 39.
  • a drive (not shown here) for moving the pulling-in means 60 and the drive 50.2 of the cutting device 50 are controlled accordingly by the control device 25 (via in FIG Fig. 8 not shown communication links).
  • the speed v and / or the acceleration of the drawing-in means 60 are controlled as a function of the respectively detected yarn parameters and / or a position of the drawing-in means 60.
  • the memory 26 of the controller 25 includes specifications of a plurality of preprogrammed progressions of the speed and / or acceleration of the retraction means 60 as a function of the position of the retraction means 60.
  • the controller 25 has via a control program, which in each case assigns one of the preprogrammed courses of the speed and / or the acceleration of the pulling-in means 60 to the respectively detected yarn parameters of a warp thread. This assignment can be made on the basis of mathematical functions or relations previously specified on the basis of experimental data and empirical values (analogous to the above-mentioned control of the clamping force F).
  • the Fig. 9 shows by way of example (as a "small" selection) three different preprogrammed courses of the clamping force F as a function of the time t (in a merely qualitative representation).
  • the respective courses are applicable to different warp threads, which differ, for example, with respect to their elastic properties (eg extensibility) or their friction with respect to the thread clamp 35 and can therefore be loaded with different sized clamping forces F.
  • the various preprogrammed courses of the clamping force F are symbolically characterized by the indication of different parameters P1, P2, P3.
  • the clamping force F is kept temporarily constant for a number of successive time intervals I, II, III and IV and temporarily reduced continuously or in stages.
  • the time interval I follows directly on the separation of the respective warp thread from the thread layer 30.
  • the respective warp thread In time interval I, the respective warp thread is held with a constant, corresponding to the respective maximum value clamping force F (the thread clamp 35 is fully closed).
  • the clamping force F in the case of all parameters P1, P2, P3
  • the time interval III In the time interval IV, the clamping force F (in the case of all parameters P1, P2, P3) in each case continuously reduced to 0 in order to open the thread clamp.
  • the thread clamp 35 is therefore partially relaxed.
  • This time interval III is used in operation to move the feeder 58 - starting from the upper end of the thread frame 10 - in the direction of the presentation device 56 ( Fig. 2 and 7 ).
  • the reduction of the clamping force F in the time interval III causes the respective held in the thread clamp warp thread in the said movement of the feeder 58 can be partially pulled out of the closed thread clamp 35 and thereby less burden. This procedure allows a particularly gentle treatment of the respective warp thread.
  • the Fig. 10 3 shows by way of example (as a "small" selection) three different preprogrammed courses of the drawing speed v of the drawing-in means 60 as a function of the length D of the path which the hook-shaped end 60.1 of the drawing-in means 60 covers during retraction (in a merely qualitative representation).
  • the respective courses are applicable to different warp threads, which are, for example, differently sensitive with regard to mechanical loads and differ, for example, with regard to brittleness, bendability or tensile strength.
  • Fig. 10 the various preprogrammed courses of the intake speed v are symbolically characterized by the specification of different parameters Q1, Q2, Q3. According to Fig. 10 Depending on the selection of one of the parameters Q1, Q2, Q3, the retraction means 60 is accelerated at different speeds and reaches different speeds.
  • a suitable selection of one of the preprogrammed courses of the pull-in speed v as a function of the individual properties of the respective warp thread allows Accordingly, it is to make the Einziehrea so that the respective warp thread is drawn with the greatest possible speed, without overloading the warp thread.
