Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for monitoring the Schifflifadens on a large or small Schifflistickmaschine according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Such a device has many disadvantages, because in the area of the Schifflifadens below the throat plate caused by the multiple friction of the upper and lower threads unavoidable lint, which after a short time the optics, whether it is the mirror or the light source with which Light beam is generated, cover, so that their effect is lost. Deposits on these sensor elements can no longer be achieved with reliable results. Furthermore, a disadvantage is that the mostly very thin used to be used Schifflifäden consist of materials that are optically difficult to detect and detectable, for example, when white or transparent threads are used. Another disadvantage of this device is that even miniaturized optical elements require relatively much space and also need to be powered by power cables with energy. Such custom-made miniaturized sensor elements are They are also very expensive and have to be individually supplied with energy. Considering that several hundred to more than a thousand ships have to be monitored simultaneously on a ship's embroidery machine, this is hardly economically feasible.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device for monitoring the Schifflifadens, which does not have the disadvantages of the two known devices and in particular ensures a reliable control over the presence of Schifflifaden.
  • this device can monitor every single embroidery point, that is, every single Schifflifaden and stop the embroidery machine at a yarn breakage or when used Schifflifaden or empty bobbin and after elimination of the cause of the thread break or after replacement of the emptied shuttle against a full to continue the embroidery operation at the point of interruption.
  • the device can be produced inexpensively, since the pin for controlling the device only an electrical connection, that is a fine wire, must be provided.
  • the inventive device has a further advantage over conventional monitoring elements, as it monitors itself.
  • the pins are very thin springs, for example, at 700 stitching / min. Millions of bites and thus deflections must endure, even endangered by a fatigue break. Should a fatigue fracture of a contact pin occur, this break also immediately triggers an error message and the machine shuts down or is stopped. Faulty stitches due to yarn breakage can therefore not be undetected because self-monitoring does not allow uncontrolled embroidery marks.
  • tap hole plate 1 on a large embroidery machine carries on its back four Schifflibahnen 3, also called Stöckli.
  • an intermediate plate 5 ( Fig. 3 ) made of a non-conductive, but good sliding properties having material.
  • the Schifflibahnen 3 are large embroidery machines by about 15 ° inclined to the vertical, so that the sliding Schiffli 9 rest with their sole by their weight on the smooth surface of the Schiffli 3.
  • FIG. 1 shows Schiffli in the lowest position and resting on the lower driver pin 8.
  • FIG. 2 is also the bottom or inside of the intermediate plate 5 visible.
  • groove-shaped slots 17 are shown, in which also in FIG. 2 between the tap hole plate 1 and the intermediate plate 5 shown, for example, consisting of spring wire pins 19 can be inserted.
  • Each contact pin 19 essentially has a shape of a "U” placed to the side, as well as the slots 17 receiving it.
  • the upper leg 19 '(FIG. FIGS. 1 . 2 . 5 ) of the contact pin 19 leaves the slot 17 and projects beyond it and crosses the recess 11 in the intermediate plate 5.
  • the contact pin 19 is thus within the cross section of the intermediate plate 5, ie between the top and bottom.
  • the contact pin 19 is preferably made of spring steel and bent such that the upper leg 19 'or its end when the tap hole plate 1 is connected to the intermediate plate 5 and the underlying Schifflibahn 3 by the screws 7, abuts the Schifflibahn 3.
  • the overhead leg 19 'of the contact pin 19 is thus in the path of the Schifflifadens 23, which leads from the eyelet 21 on Schiffli 9 to the stitch hole 13 in the tap hole plate 1, when the Schiffli 9 after passing through the thread loop 22 of the upper thread down to the starting position as in the FIGS. 1 . 2 and 6 represented is performed.
  • loop strings 23 are consumed, albeit minimally.
  • the force exerted by the strained Schifflifaden 23 on the contact pin 19 and the legs 19 'of the contact pin 19 is sufficient to deflect the leg 19' slightly, so that its end 19 "lifts from the contact position with the surface of the metallic shuttle track 3 and no electrical contact
  • the leg 19 'of the contact pin 19 generates during deflection by the Schifflifaden 23 deformation of the long, acting as a spring element base leg of the U-shaped contact pin 19 of a cover 20, which serves as insulation against the needle plate 1 in the With this arrangement, it is possible, by simply inserting into the slot 17, covering with the cover or a suitable film (not shown) and then joining the tap hole plate 1 with the intermediate plate 5 and the Schifflibahen 3 the contact pin or to hold the contact pins properly 19.
  • the end 19 'of the Contact pin 19 opposite end 31 of the contact pin 19 is connected to a wire with the machine control (wire not shown).
  • the position of the leg 19 'of the contact pin 19 can also be arranged such that at the correct thread tension of the Schifflifadens 23 of the leg 19' is deflected by the Schifflifaden 23 so that it comes into contact with the tap hole plate 1. In this case, therefore, means that an electrical connection from the taphole plate 1 to the controller represents a fault-free operation and an interruption of the connection is an error message, which leads to a machine stop.
  • the contact pin 19 consists of a straight running wire, preferably spring wire or a metal strip as a contact pin 19 which at the back of the Schifflibahn 3 and / or attached to the back of the intermediate plate 5 and is held resiliently.
  • the rear end of the contact pin 19 is connected to a connector 25.
  • the plug-in coupling 25 (see Figures 3 and 4 ) serves to make an electrically conductive connection with a wire for transmitting state to the controller of the Schifflitickmaschine.
  • the connector 25 according to the Figures 3 and 4 is fastened by means of a screw 27, on the shank of which the rear end or the lower leg of the contact pin 19 is fastened. In a preferred embodiment of the attachment of the contact pin 19 this wraps around the shaft 29 partially and is firmly connected to the shaft 29, for example, welded.
  • the rear end of the contact pin 19 preferably made of spring wire may also be wound several times around the shaft 29 to hold the rectilinear portion of the contact pin 19 resiliently biased by the recess 11 to a contact plate 18 with conductive connection to the tap hole plate 1.
  • the plug-in coupling 25, which is fixedly connected to the shaft 29, further serves to make the clamping force of the contact pin 19 adjustable and thus to be able to adjust the sensitivity of the thread monitor ( Figures 3 and 5 ).
  • a locking element 37 is formed with different locking positions on the connector 25.
  • the contact pin 19 may be formed such that at correct thread tension contact to the tap hole plate 1 and in the absence of tension the contact pin 19 is at rest from the tap hole plate 1 is removed and does not make contact.
