Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a splicer device for splicing yarns during the winding thereof on a tube in order to achieve the formation of collection packages of the yarn produced or processed by textile machines.
  • the present invention relates to a winding machine comprising such a splicer device too.
  • the yarn collection technique rotatably actuating a tube, idly carried by the spindles of a package-holder arm and drawing back the yarn coming from a follower to wind thereon.
  • the package is thus formed by pulling and winding the yarn on the surface thereof, being rotatably dragged with an underlying motor-driven roller on which the package itself rests.
  • the yarn may be wound at a constant linear speed, independent of the size taken by the package as the winding advances, and only as a function of the rotation speed of said actuating roller.
  • winding machines consist of a plurality of winding stations or units aligned along the front of the machine and provided with common service apparatuses.
  • the winding unit is shown in its essential components in Figure 1 which illustrates a front view thereof.
  • the feeding bobbing 1 is unwound by drawing its yarn 2.
  • the yarn 2 passes through the uncoiling assembly 3, which comprises yarn containment and driving members and a yarn detector, and thus through the yarn tensioner 5 which makes the path of the yarn 2 more or less tortuous and determines the tension thereof.
  • the splicer 6 is found, to which the yarn ends are taken that have to be joined by suction inlets 9 and 10 from the feeding bobbing- and the package-side, respectively.
  • inlet 9 takes the yarn end from the feeding bobbing-side to the splicer 6 and inlet 10 draws the yarn end upwards by drawing it from the package to take it downward and insert it in the splicer.
  • inlet 10 draws the yarn end upwards by drawing it from the package to take it downward and insert it in the splicer.
  • Such inlets operate frequently, both upon yarn interruptions due to the breaking thereof or to the intervention of the following yarn clearer 11, which is located downstream of the splicer 6, and to the depletion of the feeding bobbing 1.
  • the packaged yarn is collected into the package 12, which is rotatably actuated by the actuating cylinder 13, whereon it rests supported by the package-holder arm 14.
  • each winding station depletes a large number of feeding bobbings to form greatly larger-sized packages.
  • a feeding bobbing is depleted in a few minutes, while a package is completed in a little less than one hour.
  • Each feeding bobbing depleted is replaced with a new feeding bobbing, then carrying the yarn 2 thereof to join with the yarn end coming from the package.
  • a feeding bobbing handling system is placed, which feeds the new feeding bobbings to be unwound and discharges the tubes of depleted feeding bobbings, handling even thousands of items per hour.
  • the yarn winding processing consists of the cleaning of the yarn by eliminating defective portions, which are detected and eliminated with the interventions of the yarn clearer 11, then by splicing or joining the two ends of the yarn with the splicer 6 and resuming the unwinding of the feeding bobbing 1.
  • the quality of the yarn produced with the winding therefore depends on the selection carried out by the yarn clearer and the splicing achieved by the splicer 6.
  • the requirements needed for the splicing carried out by the splicer are of a mechanical nature, in terms of splicing resistance, of an aesthetic nature, since the splicing should not be distinguishable along the yarn, and of reliability, in terms of performance consistency of the splicers which equip the winding units.
  • US patent 6,199,360 discloses the actuation of the various members of the splicer with a piston valve which slides and sequentially distributes compressed air to the various members of the splicer.
  • Patent applications WO 2006/42721 and 2007/76908 disclose coordinated actuating means of the pneumatic splicer.
  • European Patent Application EP 0 641 734 A2 discloses a yarn splicer with mechanisms to draw two yarn end portions, to cut these to a predetermined length and to bring them to a splicer to perform splicing by air flow.
  • the technical problem to which the present invention is directed is the controlled actuation of such movements of the splicer 6 in the various steps of the splicing process by simplifying both the device and the process in terms of movements and synchronisms.
  • the device according to the present invention for integrally and concurrently actuating the clamps and shears of the yarns for the cutting thereof provides remarkable advantages in terms of simplicity, cost effectiveness and efficiency.
  • the control and actuation of the clamps and shears are carried out with a pair of pneumatic cylinders 50 and 51 which operate in parallel fed with only one electrovalve 76.
  • the device according to the invention ensures that the yarn ends are safely cut when their clamps are safely closed, thus allowing to work on yarn ends of an accurately predetermined length in the following stages of the splicing process.
