Definitions
- the invention relates to a device and a method for clamping a weft thread in a weaving machine, more particularly in a rapier weaving machine.
- a weft thread positioned in the path of a gripper is gripped by the gripper and inserted into the shed.
- the inserted weft thread is cut off on the insertion side in order to allow a subsequent weft thread to be inserted. It is known to position a weft thread to be inserted in the path of the gripper by using a presenting element of a presenting device that is arranged on the weaving machine next to the shed, for example as described in EP 0 598 264 A1 .
- EP 0 644 286 A1 relates to an apparatus for presenting weft threads on a rapier weaving machine comprising a movably mounted weft thread clamping unit having at least three weft thread clamps which are spaced apart in the direction of movement of the clamping unit, a positioning device for moving each of the weft thread clamps into a reference plane, which positioning device comprises a stepping motor.
- DE 10 2008 027 131 A1 further describes to provide a device for cutting a weft thread comprising a first and a second blade moved relative to one another by means of a driving device comprising a pneumatic piston.
- a device for clamping a weft thread in a weaving machine comprising a central clamping element, a first outer clamping element and a second outer clamping element, wherein the central clamping element is forced in two opposite clamping directions towards an intermediate position, wherein the central clamping element being sandwiched between the first outer clamping element and the second outer clamping element, when the central clamping element is positioned in the intermediate position, wherein both the first outer clamping element and the second outer clamping element abut against the central clamping element in the intermediate position, the device comprises further a drive device adapted for displacing the central clamping element out of the intermediate position in two clamping directions, a first clamping direction to at least one first position and a second clamping direction to at least one second position, wherein in the first position the central clamping element is at a distance from the first outer clamping element and in the second position the central clamping element is at a distance from the second outer clamping element, where
- clamping device The device for clamping a weft thread is also referred to as clamping device.
- clamping direction is meant a movement direction wherein the clamping elements move during the opening or the closing of the clamps.
- the central clamping element makes contact with the first outer clamping element and with the second outer clamping element when the central clamping element is positioned in the intermediate position.
- the total height of the at least one abutment element arranged between the first and the second outer clamping element is defined as the distance between two abutment surfaces limiting a movement of the first and the second outer clamping element towards each other. If only one abutment element is provided, the total height equals the height of this abutment element.
- the at least one abutment element is centred with the central clamping element when the central clamping element is arranged in the intermediate position. In other embodiments, the at least one abutment element is a little off centre in one of the two clamping directions.
- the total height of the at least one abutment element is smaller than the height or the thickness of the central clamping element, in order to allow that both the first and the second outer clamping element abut against the central clamping element in an intermediate position. Because of that smaller height of the at least one abutment element a play is achieved between the clamping elements and the at least one abutment element which is advantageous to keep the clamps in the intermediate position closed, in other words against the central clamping element, what allows to always clamp a weft thread, even if the clamping elements due to their sudden movements move or vibrate a bit up and down, more in particular vibrate after the contacting of a clamping element with the central clamping element, this means after the closing of a clamp. In this case all clamping elements can vibrate together over that play without one of the clamps opening and releasing a weft thread.
- the piston may adopt a first upper piston position when only the lower chamber of the pneumatic cylinder is pressurized, adopt a second lower piston position when only the upper chamber of the pneumatic cylinder is pressurized, and adopt a third intermediate piston position when the loads applied on the piston are balanced.
- the loads applied on the piston are balanced when none of the two chambers is pressurized.
- the central clamping element will adopt an intermediate position when no pressurized fluid is supplied.
- the intermediate position may be adopted when the both chambers are pressurized.
- the pneumatic cylinder comprises at least a spring, preferably two springs, loading the piston.
- the springs are adapted to hold the piston in the third intermediate piston position, wherein also the central clamping element is in its intermediate position.
- the loads applied by the two springs are balanced.
- the load applied by this spring in the third intermediate position for example is almost negligible.
- the clamping device comprises a first force element forcing the first outer clamping element towards the central clamping element, a second force element forcing the second outer clamping element towards the central clamping element, and at least one abutment element for limiting a displacement of the first and the second outer clamping element caused by the displacement of the central clamping element and a force applied by the first and the second force element on the first and the second outer clamping element, respectively.
- the first and the second force element in preferred embodiments are realized as spring elements.
- the first and the second force elements assume the functions of the springs of the pneumatic cylinder, wherein the springs of the pneumatic cylinder may be omitted.
- the force elements are co-operating with the springs of the pneumatic cylinder, wherein the loads applied by the force elements are preferably chosen smaller than the forces applied by the springs of the pneumatic cylinder.
- the first outer clamping element and/or the second outer clamping element are formed as a plate being fixed to a guiding shaft.
- the length of the guiding shafts is chosen in an embodiment in order to limit a movement of the outer clamping elements.
- the guiding shafts may therefore assume the function of the at least one abutment element.
- the guiding shafts co-operate with an abutment element provided between the outer clamping elements.
- the plates provide a light-weight solution.
- guiding shafts for the central clamping element, the first outer clamping element and second outer clamping element are coaxially arranged.
- the piston rod of the pneumatic cylinder functions as a guiding shaft for the central clamping element.
- the piston rod extends through the central clamping element, the first outer clamping element and the second outer clamping element.
- the central clamping element is arranged in a fixed position on the piston rod or is formed integrally with the piston rod.
- the first outer clamping element and the second outer clamping element are provided with feed-through openings for the piston rod.
- the guiding shafts for the first outer clamping element and for the second outer clamping element are formed as tubular shaped shafts arranged concentrically around the piston rod.
- a receiving section of the clamps formed by the central clamping element and the outer clamping elements are arranged approximately perpendicular to the weft thread when the weft thread is taken up by the associated clamp, because such an arrangement is advantageous for catching the weft thread.
- the distal end of the central clamping element that is directed towards a weft thread to be clamped forms an intake funnel with the distal end of the first outer clamping element and/or with the distal end of the second outer clamping element. This allows the weft thread to be taken up by the clamping device more easily.
- the clamping device can be arranged in a fixed position on the weaving machine.
- the device also comprises an abutment which limits the movement of the first outer clamping element in the second position and/or an abutment which limits the movement of the second outer clamping element in the first position. This limits vibrations that may arise after reaching the first or second position of the clamping elements, whereby it is avoided that a clamped weft thread is laying free in the clamp, this means is let free, shortly after reaching the first or second position.
- the clamping device is arranged in a module.
- the module allows an easy and reliable positioning on the weaving machine.
- the device is arranged in a fixed position on the weaving machine, this means in a fixed position with respect to a gripper path, a cloth line and a cloth edge.
- the fixed position is adjustable and may be chosen suitably with respect to the gripper path, the cloth line and the cloth edge of the woven cloth in order to clamp the inserted weft threads.

- the module comprises in an alternative or in addition at least one cutting device arranged downstream of the central clamping element in weft direction.
- a cutting device By providing a cutting device in a position adjacent to the cloth edge between the clamping device according to the invention and the cloth edge, inserted weft threads may be cut essentially to the same length and the weft thread ends protruding beyond the cloth edge may be kept to a minimum.
- the cutting device comprises a stationary jaw and a movable jaw, for example of the type shown in WO 2009/007076 A1 . The content of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- the module comprising the clamping device and the cutting device is arranged next to the cloth edge, wherein the weft thread ends may be cut to a length of less than 10mm, for example to lengths between 4mm and 8mm.
- the cutting device and the clamping device may be arranged in a certain position and also mutually arranged at a certain settable distance from each other. This setting may be either in the insertion direction as in the warp direction.
- the cutting device and the clamping device may herein be arranged as a unit or separately in a certain position.
- the module is arranged to be moveable towards and away from a gripper in a plane approximately parallel or parallel to the cloth edge of the woven cloth.
- the module is arranged at least partly on a rotatable shaft to be moved towards and away from the gripper.
- the arrangement allows to bring the device close to the gripper path in the vicinity of an area where a weft thread is taken up by the gripper, because such an arrangement is advantageous for keeping a weft thread end protruding beyond the thread clamp in the gripper short, which allows to keep the thread end protruding beyond the cloth edge at the opposite side of the shed under control, this means short.
- the object is further solved by a method for clamping a weft thread in a weaving machine, more particularly in a rapier weaving machine, wherein an inserted weft thread is introduced in a device for clamping a weft thread arranged next to a cloth edge of the woven cloth, wherein the device comprises a central clamping element, a first outer clamping element and a second outer clamping element, wherein the central clamping element being forced in two opposite clamping directions to an intermediate position, wherein the central clamping element being sandwiched between the first outer clamping element and the second outer clamping element, when the central clamping element is positioned in the intermediate position, wherein the device further comprises a drive device adapted for displacing the central clamping element from the intermediate position in two clamping directions, a first clamping direction to at least one first position and a second clamping direction to at least one second position, wherein in the first position the central clamping element is at a distance from the first outer clamping element and in the second position the central clamping element is at
- An actuating by supplying compressed air allows the central clamping element to be displaced with a high reliability and at high speeds.
- the drive device is a double acting pneumatic cylinder having a first chamber and a second chamber, wherein the first chamber is pressurized for moving the piston in the first position and a second chamber is pressurized for moving the piston in the second position.
- the weft thread is clamped by the clamping device before the cutting device cuts the weft thread.
- the weft thread is released by the clamping device.
- the gripper takes up a weft thread and the weft thread taken up by the gripper is pulled out of a clamp of the clamping device while the clamp is still closed. The clamp only opens afterwards by supplying compressed air.

- a weft thread 6 runs from the presenting device 2, via the gripper 3, the thread guiding element 4, the device 1 for clamping a weft thread 6, and the cutting device 5 to the cloth edge 8 and the woven cloth 9 with the cloth line 7.
- the cloth 9 can in this case support on a cloth support not shown.
- the cloth edge 8 is a side edge of the cloth 9 that extends in warp direction
- the cloth line 7 is the beat-up edge of the cloth 9 that extends in weft direction.
