Definitions
- This invention is concerned with a method for opening and subsequently closing an electronic weft brake in a thread feeder of a textile machine or a knitting machine, and to a thread feeder adapted to carry out the method.
- brake systems In the field of textile machines, and more specifically of thread feeders, brake systems are known in which a frusto-conical braking member is elastically supported in an axial position in front of the feeder drum so that it is pushed with more or less pressure against the drum by a motor, thereby modulating the braking action so that the average tension acting on the thread, as measured by a suitable downstream sensor, coincides with a preset desired tension.
- a system of this sort is disclosed, e.g., in prior document EP 707102 .
- the system may use one of several strategies, the most obvious one being to bring the slide back to a standard, predefined initial position, trusting that the control system will subsequently take the slide to the proper position.
- the invention achieves the above and other objects and advantages, such as will appear from the following disclosure, with a method for opening and subsequently closing a weft brake in a thread feeder of a textile machine, as recited in claim 1.
- the invention is also concerned with a thread feeder which incorporates the features of the above method, as recited in claim 4.
- the concept of the invention substantially consists in counting the number of steps made by the motor starting from the beginiing of the opening travel, while monitoring the motor's turning speed or other parameter useful for detecting when the slide has reached the end of its opening travel and abutted against a limit stop.
- step_to_open a suitable variable or memory register
- step_to_open the motor is driven in the opposite direction for a number of steps exactly equal to the stored count step_to_open.
- a drum 10 of a weft feeder is carried on a stationary support 12, on which is also mounted a step motor 14; motor 14 drives, via a traveling-nut linear actuator 16, 18, a slide 20 which is slidably mounted on stationary support 12, so that it will move in a direction parallel to the axis of drum 10.
- a limit stop 22 limits the slide travel in a direction away from the drum.
- Slide 20 has a ring 23 that is coaxial to drum 10, in which a frustoconical braking member 26 is elastically mounted, by means of radial springs 24, in a position that is frontal and coaxial to drum 10.
- Braking member 26 is known per se and is adapted to cooperate with the drum, by contacting its rounded front edge, so that a braking action is exerted on a thread 28 which unwinds from the drum and proceeds toward a textile machine (not shown) while moving along a tension detector 30.
- a stepper control system (not shown on Fig. 1 , and described below) controls motor 14, depending on the tension signal received from detector 30, so that slide 20 and therefore braking member 26 are positioned to apply a braking pressure on the drum such that the average thread tension is kept a a desired pre-set value.
- the manner of implementing this regulation is disclosed in prior documents EP 2031106 and EP 1314806 .
- Pha is one of two phase windings of a bipolar stepper motor driving the brake of Fig. 1 .
- Phase Pha of the stepper is supplied through an H bridge PDa, comprising four MOSFETs Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 that are driven, in a way known per se, by respective signals G1, G2, G3, G4 provided by a gate driver GDa, which in turn is driven by control signals Pwma1, Pwma2, Pwma3, Pwma4.
- H bridge PDa is connected between a supply voltage Vbus and earth, in order to drive, as known per se, the phase winding so that the full current reversibility in the winding is ensured.
- the stepper also has a second phase winding Phb, which is not shown on Fig. 2 , and which is driven, similarly as described above, by a second H bridge PDb (not shown). This is ultimately governed by a second set of signals Pwmb1, Pwmb2, Pwmb3, Pwmb4 (which also are not shown in Fig. 2 ), generated by microcontroller MC.
- Microcontroller MC is also capable of receiving, via inputs Open and Close that are commanded by manual pushbuttons or from a console, respective brake opening and fast closing commands.
- two signals Iameas and Ibmeas are derived from H-bridges PDa and PDb, respectively, thru respective resistors such as Ra.
- the signals Iameas and Ibmeas, together with the bus voltage Vbus, are input to microcontroller MC, after being converted to digital signals in an analog-digital converter embedded in the microcontroller or in another A/D converter not shown.
- the time derivative of Vamp ( dVamp / dt ) is compared with a predetermined negative threshold DerThr. Whenever the derivative exceeds such threshold in the negative direction, as is shown at instant t1 in the diagram, that indicates that the counter-electromotive force has vanished, because the motor has been blocked.
- the microcontroller then ceases to drive the motor, at instant t2, and the system waits for a subsequent re-positioning command, which will take place at instant t3 .
- the motor will be driven in the opposite direction (i.e. the brake moving towards the drum) for a number of steps equal to the stored value step_to_open.
- the variable step_to_open is decremented at each step gained in the opposite direction, until said variable reaches zero, at instant t4 .
