Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a machine on a spinning line for textile processing, such as a carding machine, provided with a casing.
  • textile processing machines are composed of a large number of components, frequently in movement, often at high speed.
  • the machines process fibre in tufts or a fibre web or a roving or a yarn, subject to soiling with dirt or dust.
  • the machines need to be fitted with an outer casing able to cover the moving parts, for obvious reasons of safety, or able to protect the material being processed.
  • a solution of a carding machine fitted with a casing formed of panels detachable from the support frame is known of.
  • such solution has the drawback of requiring transport of the panels, in operations which are often difficult and tiring, and entailing identification of somewhere to put them, creating problems of obstruction to other operators.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to make a textile processing machine such as a carding machine, fitted with a casing which satisfies the aforesaid requirements and overcomes the drawbacks mentioned with reference to the prior art.
  • reference numeral 1 indicates a textile processing machine, and in particular a carding machine, on a spinning line.
  • the machine 1 comprises a plurality of functional components, such as a base, cylinders, motors, belts, and a casing which taken as a whole defines a closed box-like structure inside which said components are housed.
  • a base such as a base, cylinders, motors, belts, and a casing which taken as a whole defines a closed box-like structure inside which said components are housed.
  • the casing comprises a casing frame composed of a plurality of crosspieces, which extend in a longitudinal direction, pillars or columns, which extend in a vertical direction, and inclined elements, such as to define the corners of an imaginary solid, inside which the components of the machine are housed.
  • the casing frame comprises, on one side of the machine, a rear pillar 2, a load-bearing front element consisting of a front column 4, a first inclined element 6 and a second inclined element 8, and an upper crosspiece 10 and a lower crosspiece 12, which join the rear pillar 2 to the load-bearing front element.
  • the casing frame presents a similar structure.
  • the casing frame comprises reinforcement elements which join the crosspieces or the pillars to each other; for example a reinforcement element 14 joins the upper cross-piece 10 to the lower crosspiece 12.
  • the casing comprises transversal elements, extending in a transversal direction, which join the pillars or load-bearing elements or the crosspieces of one side to those of the other side.
  • the casing further comprises a plurality of panels, supported by the casing frame, moving in such a way as to permit, when brought into the open position, access to the inside of the box-like structure, for example so as to perform maintenance operations of the components.
  • the casing comprises at least one swivelling rear panel 20 preferably hinged to the rear pillar 2, so that by swivelling, it provides access to the inside of the box-like structure.
  • the swivelling rear panel is divided into several parts swivelling independently of each other.
  • the casing comprises a first sliding panel 30, hanging from the upper crosspiece 10 and/or resting on the lower crosspiece 12, translating longitudinally.
  • the first sliding panel is alongside the swivelling panel 20; in a partially open configuration, instead the first sliding panel 30 is translated, occupying the area of the casing frame left vacant by the swivelling panel.
  • the casing comprises a second sliding panel 40, hanging from the upper crosspiece 10 and/or resting on the lower crosspiece 12, translating longitudinally.
  • the second siding panel 40 is shaped along at least one peripheral edge so as to follow with its profile the path of the front load-bearing element, and in particular of the second inclined element 8.
  • the second sliding panel 40 is alongside the first sliding panel 30; in the partially open configuration, instead, the second sliding panel 40 is translated and at least partially longitudinally overlaps the first sliding panel 30.
  • the casing comprises at least one swivelling front panel 50 preferably hinged to the load-bearing element, for example to the column 4.
  • the front swivelling panel 50 is shaped along its peripheral edge in such a way that the profile follows the path of the first inclined element 6.
  • each sliding panel is provided with at least one main wheel to facilitate its longitudinal sliding.
  • the first sliding panel 30 is fitted with a main rear wheel 60 and a main front wheel 70, connected so as to support the panel 30 hanging from the upper crosspiece 10.
  • the second sliding panel 40 is fitted with a main rear wheel 80 and a main front wheel 90, connected so as to support the panel 40 hanging from the upper crosspiece 10.
  • the casing comprises a guide system able to support at least one sliding panel in a longitudinal direction, and preferably transversally, so as to slide.
  • the guide system comprises a guide 100, for example in the shape of a profile, attached to the upper crosspiece 10, having a longitudinal extension, comprising a base 102 on which the wheels of the panels rest, and a lateral shoulder 104, projecting from the base 102, to prevent the wheels of the panels from coming out of the guide 100.
  • the guide 100 extends along a sliding axis X which coincides with the direction of the main wheels when rolling.
  • the system comprises at least one parking area 110 suitable for supporting a sliding panel, transversally flanking the sliding axis X, that is alongside the guide 100.
  • the parking area is formed by an angular element fixed to the upper crosspiece.
  • the guide system comprises at least two parking areas 110, longitudinally distanced from each other, that is, along a sliding axis X.
  • the guide system comprises a transversal stop element suitable for limiting the transversal movement of the sliding panel.
  • said stop element is formed of a slot 140 made in the parking area 110, suitable for at least partially housing the parking wheel, to limit its rolling in a transversal direction.
  • the lateral shoulder 104 of the guide 100 has interruptions 120, which allow the passage of the wheels.
  • the guide system comprises at least one parking wheel 130, fixed to the first sliding panel 30 so as to swivel, suitable for rolling in a transversal direction, that is mounted with its rotation axis parallel to the longitudinal sliding direction of the panels.
  • the guide system envisages two parking wheels 130, respectively joined to the two main wheels 60, 70.
  • the main wheels 60, 70 align longitudinally with the interruptions 120, in general when the first sliding panel 30 has reached the limit stop, while the parking wheels 130 overlap the respective parking areas 110.
  • the main wheels 60, 70 are pushed out of the guide 100, in a parking position.
  • main wheels 60, 70 position themselves next to the sliding axis, while the parking wheels roll on the parking regions 110, supporting the transversal shifting of the panel 30, for example up to engaging with the stop element, that is until they enter their respective slots 140.
  • the distance between axles of the main rear wheel and the main front wheel of the first sliding panel is equal to the distance between axles between the interruptions 120, so that, when the sliding panel is in the limit stop position, the main wheels are aligned with the respective interruptions (and the parking wheels overlap the respective parking areas).
  • the second sliding panel 40 longitudinally overlaps the first panel 30, covering it completely.
  • the distance between axles of the main rear wheel and the main front wheel of the second sliding panel is different from the distance between axles of the interruptions (and the distance between axles of the first sliding panel), so that when the second sliding panel is in the limit stop position, its wheels are misaligned with such interruptions, thereby preventing the exit of the second sliding panel from the guide.
  • the guide system comprises a lower guide 150, having a longitudinal extension and attached to the lower crosspiece 12, and a guide element 160, attached to the sliding panel, sliding in the lower guide 150, so as to guide the sliding of the panels.
  • the guide system comprises a parking extension 200, positioned as a longitudinal extension of the guide 100 at one end of it, projecting from the casing frame ( figure 11 ).
  • the first sliding panel 30 is made to slide longitudinally on the extension 200 and, after reaching the limit stop position, is pushed transversally and brought into the parking position, in the same way as seen above.
  • a further first sliding panel 30' is made to slide longitudinally on the extension 200 and, after reaching the limit stop position and longitudinally overlapping the first sliding panel 30, is pushed transversally and brought into the respective parking position, in the same way as described above with reference to the first sliding panel 30.
  • the second sliding panel 40 is made to slide longitudinally on the extension 200 and longitudinally overlaps the other panels ( figure 12 ).
  • a fully open configuration is thereby achieved, in which access to the inner components is optimal.
  • the guide system comprises the parking extension 200, positioned as a longitudinal extension of the guide 100 at one end of it, projecting from the casing frame, and a corresponding lower guide extension 250 positioned as a longitudinal extension of the lower guide 150 attached to the lower crosspiece 12 of the casing frame ( figures 13 and 14 ).
  • the lower extension 250 is hinged, for example to the casing frame, so as to swivel between an open position, in which it is aligned with the lower guide 150 of the casing frame ( figure 13 ), and a closed position, in which it positions itself in the rear part of the machine so as not to cause obstruction ( figure 14 ).
  • the parking extension 250 is hinged, for example to the casing frame, so as to swivel between an open position, in which it is aligned with the guide 100 of the casing frame, and a closed position, in which it positions itself in the rear part of the machine so as not to cause obstruction.
  • the textile processing machine according to the present invention overcomes the drawbacks of the prior art and, in particular permits easy access to the inner components of the machine and avoids the inconvenience of transport and the obstructions caused by the panels, and consequent problems of safety in the workplace.
