  • Steps S3 to S5 indicate the processing for accelerating the winding speed and correspond to the function of the accelerating section 99a.
  • the vibration strength signal is equal to or smaller than the predetermined value in the determination in step S2
  • processing for increasing the winding speed of the drum driving motor 97 by a predetermined speed is repeated until the vibration strength signal is greater than the predetermined value (steps S3 and S4).
  • a rotating speed of the drum driving motor 97 is decelerated to a last rotating speed (that is, a rotating speed at which the vibration strength signal determined to be equal to or smaller than the predetermined value) (step S5) and the acceleration processing is ended.
  • Steps S6 to S8 indicate the processing for decelerating the winding speed and correspond to the function of the decelerating section 99b.
  • the vibration strength signal is greater than the predetermined value in the determination in step S2
  • processing for decreasing the rotating speed of the drum driving motor 97 by a predetermined speed is repeated until the vibration strength signal is equal to or smaller than the predetermined value (steps S6 and S7). If the vibration strength signal is equal to or smaller than the predetermined value, the rotating speed of the drum driving motor 97 is maintained as it is (step S8) and the deceleration processing is ended.
  • step S9 the end of the winding operation is determined when the processing has ended.
  • a winding length at a winding start of the yarn around the empty winding bobbin 203 has reached a predetermined length or not. If the winding length is equal to or greater than the predetermined length, it implies a completion of the package 205, and processing for ending the winding is executed so that the flow is ended. If the winding length is smaller than the predetermined length, the processing returns to step S2, and the winding operation is continued.
  • the controller 107 checks the strength of the vibration again and compares the strength with a predetermined strength, and carries out the acceleration processing or the deceleration processing depending on the result of the comparison.
  • the package 205 generally, a rotation is gradually stabilized when the yarn is wound thickly. Therefore, even for a winding speed which conventionally cannot be implemented because the strength of the vibration exceeds the predetermined value, if the acceleration to the winding speed was carried out again after a package diameter is increased, the strength of the vibration is likely to be maintained at the predetermined value or less.
  • the processings of steps S2 to S9 are repeated so that the winding speed can be gradually increased from the touch winding setting speed along with the thickening of the package 205.
  • the loop of steps S2 to S9 can be continuously executed not only at an initial stage of the winding operation, i.e., a touch winding period, but also after arrival of a normal winding speed.
  • the normal winding speed represents a target winding speed to be input through a manipulation of an input device (not illustrated) by an operator at the start of the winding.
  • the circuit board 105 has the vibration detecting chip 109 provided on the circuit board body 105a. Consequently, it is possible to immediately detect the vibration of the yarn winding unit 1. As a result, in the case in which the vibration is generated, it is possible to decrease the winding speed or to interrupt the winding operation if necessary. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the electronic component of the yarn winding unit 1 from being damaged by the vibration and being detached from the circuit board body 105a. Moreover, since it is not necessary to newly dispose a special board for detecting a vibration, the number of the components can be reduced.
  • the vibration detecting chip 109 can accurately detect a vibration generated in the yarn winding unit 1. The reason is that the vibration detecting chip 109 and the signal processing section 111 are provided on the circuit board body 105a and a deterioration in a signal is unlikely to occur.
  • the vibration detecting chip 109 can accurately detect the vibration generated in the winding section 15. The reason is that the vibration detecting chip 109 is provided in the unit frame 7. In other words, the vibration generated in the winding section 15 is transmitted through the unit frame 7. For this reason, the vibration detecting chip 109 is not directly affected by the vibration generated in the winding section 15.
  • the yarn winding unit 1 further includes the circuit board body 105a.
  • the circuit board body 105a is supported on the unit frame 7 and is provided with the vibration detecting chip 109.
  • the vibration detecting chip 109 can accurately detect the vibration generated in the winding section 15. The reason is that the vibration detecting chip 109 is provided on the circuit board body 105a in the unit frame 7. In other words, the vibration generated in the winding section 15 is transmitted through the unit frame 7, and therefore, the vibration detecting chip 109 is not directly affected by the vibration generated in the winding section 15.
  • the vibration detecting chip 109 can detect a vibration generated in the yarn winding device for winding a spun yarn while unwinding a yarn defect of the spun yarn. As a result, the yarn winding unit 1 can suppress an abnormal vibration, thereby winding the package 205 through the winding section 15. Thus, it is possible to efficiently wind a package of high quality.
  • the vibration detecting chip 109 By the vibration detecting chip 109, it is possible to detect a vibration generated in the yarn winding unit 1 for forming a spun yarn from the sliver to wind the spun yarn. As a result, the yarn winding unit 1 can suppress an abnormal vibration, and wind the package 205 through the winding section 15. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently wind a package of high quality.
  • the present invention can be widely applied to a circuit board and a yarn winding device including the circuit board.
