  • the present invention relates to a package brake and an automatic winder including the package brake arranged to apply a braking force derived from fluid pressure to a winding package composed of a take-up tube that is rotationally driven and a yarn that is wound around a surface of the take-up tube.
  • a winding unit of an automatic winder defined as a winding apparatus includes a package brake arranged to apply a braking force to a winding package rotated by a traversing drum.
  • Fig. 10 illustrates a conventional configuration of such package brake.
  • a package brake having a substantially similar configuration to that of Fig. 10 is disclosed in JP,H10-25061,A .
  • the package brake includes a cylindrical housing 101 having an opening and a bottom, a brake shoe 102 internally engaged with the front opening, and a bearing center 103 attached to a front end of the brake shoe 102.
  • the brake shoe 102 and the bearing center 103 can individually move relative to the housing 101 in a front-back direction.
  • the brake shoe 102 includes a shaft 104 to be inserted into the housing 101, a flange 105 externally extending from a front end portion of the shaft 104, and an external sleeve 106 extending in a rear direction from an outer circumferential edge of the flange 105.
  • a friction material 107 for applying a braking force to the bearing center 103 is provided in a front surface of the flange 105.
  • An air chamber 110 arranged to receive air from a compressor 109 via a solenoid valve 109a and an air inlet 108 is provided between a rear end portion of the shaft 104 and an inner end portion of the housing 101.
  • a twisted-coil-shaped first spring 111 arranged to apply a biasing force to move the brake shoe 102 in a front direction is contained in the air chamber 110.
  • Reference numeral 112 denotes a seal member that shields an inner surface of the housing 101 and an outer circumferential surface of the brake shoe 102.
  • a hollow chamber 113 having a front opening is provided from an anteroposterior center to the front end portion of the shaft 104, and a shaft 114 of the bearing center is inserted into the hollow chamber 113.
  • the bearing center 103 includes the shaft 114 and a holder portion 115 arranged on a front end of the shaft 114.
  • a front surface of the holder portion 115 has a tapered shape and presses against a take-up tube 21 by proceeding into one side surface of the take-up tube 21.
  • a second spring 116 is provided inside the hollow chamber 113 to press against the brake shoe 102 in the rear direction in a normal state in which the braking force is not applied.
  • a bearing 117 is provided to a front end portion of the hollow chamber 113, and the bearing center 103 can rotate integrally with the take-up tube 21 via the bearing 117.
  • the biasing force of the first spring 111 acts on the bearing center 103 in the normal state in which the braking force is not applied.
  • the braking force is applied to the bearing center 103 to stop the take-up tube (winding package) from rotating. More specifically, when the working air is supplied to the inside of the air chamber 110, the shaft 104 of the brake shoe 102 is pressed in the front direction by the air pressure. Then, the friction material 107 of the brake shoe 102 makes contact with the holder portion 115 of the bearing center 103, and thus, the braking force is applied to the bearing center 103.
  • the braking force (B) when the braking force (B) is increased, i.e., when the air pressure is increased, the suppress strength (f1) derived from the air pressure is also increased, and thus, the greater holding force (F2) acts on the take-up tube 21. As a result, the take-up tube 21 may be damaged. Such trouble can be eliminated by, for example, reducing the air pressure. However, when the air pressure is reduced, the surface pressure between the friction material 107 and the holder portion 115 is also reduced. Accordingly, the reduction of the braking force (B) cannot be prevented, and a longer period of time is required until the rotation of the winding package is stopped, which is disadvantageous.

  • a preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a package brake arranged to apply a braking force derived from fluid pressure to a winding package composed of a take-up tube and a yarn that is wound around a surface of the take-up tube.
  • a holding member that holds one side surface of the take-up tube and an action member that applies a braking force by making contact with the holding member are attached to a cylindrical housing.
  • the holding member and the action member can individually move with respect to the housing in a front direction towards the take-up tube and in a rear direction away from the take-up tube.
  • the holding member is pressed in the front direction by a pressing element.
  • a first acting force directed to the front direction towards the take-up tube and a second acting force in which the braking force is exerted between the action member and the holding member are applied to the action member and the holding member.
  • the package brake includes the cylindrical housing, the cylindrical hollow action member that is attached to the housing such that the action member can move in the front-back direction, and the holding member that is attached to the housing and the action member such that the holding member can move in the front-back direction.
  • the holding member includes a shaft axially supported by the action member and a take-up tube holding portion stretching at a front end of the shaft.
  • the take-up tube holding portion can rotate integrally with the take-up tube around the shaft defined as a rotation axis. In a normal state, when the shaft receives a suppress strength directed to the front direction from the pressing element, a front surface of the take-up tube holding portion is pressed against the side surface of the take-up tube to hold the take-up tube.
  • a friction material provided on a front side of the action member is pressed against the take-up tube holding portion, and thus, the braking force with respect to the holding member is exerted.
  • a first fluid chamber and a second fluid chamber are provided to respectively receive the first acting force and the second acting force when the working fluid is supplied.
  • the package brake includes the cylindrical housing, a cylindrical hollow holding member that is attached to the housing such that the holding member can move, and an action member that is attached such that the action member can move with respect to the housing and the holding member.
  • the action member includes a shaft axially supported by the holding member and a brake shoe stretching at a front end of the shaft.
  • a friction material arranged to exert a braking force with respect to the holding member is provided in a portion of the brake shoe.
  • the holding member includes an inner sleeve attached inside the housing, an external sleeve arranged to be externally attached to and held by the housing, and an take-up tube holding portion arranged to hold the take-up tube.
  • the take-up tube holding portion can rotate integrally with the take-up tube around the shaft defined as a rotation axis of the action member.
  • a rear end portion of the inner sleeve receives a suppress strength directed to the front direction from the pressing element
  • a front surface of the take-up tube holding portion is pressed against the side surface of the take-up tube to hold the take up tube.
  • the action member is moved relative to the holding member by the second acting force, the friction material is pressed against the take-up tube holding portion, and the braking force is exerted with respect to the holding member.
  • the first fluid chamber for receiving the first acting force when the working fluid is supplied is provided between the housing and the holding member, and the second fluid chamber for receiving the second acting force is provided between the action member and the holding member.
  • the first fluid chamber and the second fluid chamber can be communicated with each other.
  • the braking force applied to the holding member can be adjusted in accordance with a package radius of the winding package.
  • the braking force applied to the holding member can be adjusted in accordance with a number of rotations per unit time of the winding package.
  • the present invention relates to an automatic winder including the above package brake.
  • the first acting force directed to the front direction towards the take-up tube and the second acting force in which the braking force is exerted between the action member and the holding member are applied to the action member and the holding member.
  • the first acting force is applied to any one of the action member and the holding member, and the second acting force is applied to both the action member and the holding member.
  • the action member and the holding member can be moved in the front-back direction. Therefore, the braking force derived from the second acting force can act on both the action member and the holding member. Accordingly, the braking force can be easily improved as compared with the conventional art in which the braking force is obtained only by moving the action member in the front direction.
  • the second acting force influences the braking operation but does not influence the holding force with respect to the take-up tube at the time of braking operation. Accordingly, by increasing the second acting force, the increase of the holding force can be effectively controlled while increasing the braking force.
  • the braking force can be reliably improved while controlling the increase of the holding force. Accordingly, problems that are inevitable in the conventional package brake, such as a damage of the take up tube due to the excessive holding force owing to the increase of the braking force, can be effectively eliminated.
  • the action member is attached to the housing, the holding member includes the shaft axially supported by the action member and the take-up tube holding portion stretching at the front end of the shaft, and the braking force can be exerted with respect to the holding member when the action member is moved relative to the holding member by the second acting force.
  • the first fluid chamber for receiving the first acting force and the second fluid chamber for receiving the second acting force are provided.
  • the holding member is movably attached to the housing, the action member includes the shaft axially supported by the holding member and the brake shoe stretching at the front end of the shaft, and the braking force can be exerted with respect to the holing member when the action member is moved relative to the holding member by the second acting force and when the friction material is resultantly pressed against the take-up tube holding portion.
  • the first fluid chamber for receiving the first acting force when the working fluid is supplied is provided between the housing and the holding member, and the second fluid chamber for receiving the second acting force is provided between the action member and the holding member.
  • the braking force (second acting force) occurred in the second fluid chamber acts on the action member, and the suppress strength (first acting force) that occurs in the first fluid chamber and is directed to the take-up tube side acts on the holding member. Accordingly, at the time of braking operation, the braking force derived from the resultant force of the first and second acting forces can be reliably obtained. Moreover, the second acting force influences the braking operation but does not influence the holding force with respect to the take-up tube. Accordingly, the braking force can be increased while effectively preventing the damage of the take-up tube.
  • the working fluid supplied to the first and second fluid chambers can be supplied from individually provided fluid supplying units (for example, compressors), however, the working fluid is preferably supplied from one fluid supplying unit to the fluid chambers in view of simplification of the unit.
  • the fluid chambers are preferably communicated with each other, and thus, by opening one fluid inlet at the action member or the holding member, the working fluid can be supplied to both fluid chambers.
  • the winding package When a number of rotations of the winding package is small, the winding package can be stopped by applying a small braking force, and when the number of rotations of the winding package is large, a larger braking force is required. Therefore, when the braking force applied to the holding member can be adjusted in accordance with the number of rotations of the winding package, the proper braking force can be applied to stop the winding package. As a result, the damage of the take-up tube due to the excessive holding force applied to the take-up tube can be effectively prevented.
