Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for controlling the consumption rate (m/sec) of a yarn being unwound from an accumulation feeder toward a textile machine, particularly a circular knitting machine, and an apparatus for carrying out such method.
- a generic circular knitting machine can be fed by a plurality of yarns that are unwound from respective yarn feeders known as "accumulator feeders".
- a generic accumulator yarn feeder comprises a drum on which winding means wind a plurality of yarn loops which form a reserve.
- winding means can consist of a motorized flywheel that winds the yarn on the drum, or the drum proper can be rotated in order to wind the yarn onto it.
- the yarn is taken from a distaff upstream and passed on to the textile machine downstream on request therefrom.
- EP2031106B1 discloses how to control the yarn tension being unwound from the drum so as to keep it substantially constant.
- a tension sensor arranged downstream of the feeder detects the yarn tension and sends it to a control unit.
- the control unit drives, in feedback, means for braking the yarn so as to stabilize the tension on a preset value.
- WO 2013/045982 A1 discloses a method for controlling the yarn consumption quantity, on the basis of the interaction between a tension control loop and a speed control loop.
- the yarn consumption quantity is measured by a dedicated velocity sensor positioned in proximity to the yarn processing point or zone of the textile machine.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a method for controlling the consumption rate of a yarn being unwound from an accumulation feeder toward a textile machine, which can be adopted practically and economically, including on existing knitting machines without adjustment of the knit triangles, in particular, large-diameter knitting machines and machines for stockings, as well as to provide an apparatus for carrying out such method.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a textile machine that receives yarn from an accumulation feeder by way of the method according to the invention.
- a weft feeder 10 for textile machines comprises a fixed drum 12 and a flywheel 14, which is driven by a motor 15 in order to take yarn F from a distaff 16 and wind it on the drum 12 in the form of loops which form a reserve.
- the yarn F is unwound from the drum 12 on request from a generic textile machine downstream, advantageously a circular knitting machine 17.
- the quantity of reserve on the drum 12 is controlled by a triplet of sensors.
- a first sensor S1 preferably a Hall probe, detects the passage of magnets like M which are integral with the flywheel 14 in order to determine the quantity of yarn wound on the drum and the winding speed.
- a weft braking device 20 Arranged downstream of the weft feeder 10 is a weft braking device 20 driven by a control unit CU which is programmed to stabilize the yarn tension being unwound from the drum 12 on a preset value by way of a feedback control loop.
- a tension sensor 22 which is adapted to measure the tension of the yarn F being unwound from the drum and to generate a corresponding measured tension signal T_meas.
- the control unit CU comprises a tension control block CT which is programmed to compare the measured tension signal T_meas with a reference tension T_ref which represents the desired tension, and consequently generate a braking signal BI for the weft braking device 20 which is such as to minimize the difference between the measured tension and the reference tension.
- control unit CU of the feeder is connected to the knitting machine 17 by way of a bus 30 for the mutual exchange of information such as the speed of the machine, alarms, statuses, and setting of parameters.
- the feeder 10 receives a pulse UWP from the sensor S3 for each turn unwound from the drum 12. Since the yarn drawing rate at a given rotation speed of the downstream machine is almost constant, under normal conditions the intervals between successive pulses will vary only to a negligible extent. But if the time elapsed since the most recent pulse appreciably exceeds the average interval, then the machine will shut down as this points to the possibility that the weft has undergone an accidental stoppage, either owing to the breakage of the yarn or owing to the loss of the yarn by the needles of the machine 17. For more details on such system for detecting accidental stoppages of the yarn, which lies outside the aims and objects of the present invention, reference is made to EP2031106B1 .
- control of the consumption rate is disabled in the steps in which the machine operates with variable consumption, in order to make complex patterns (when control of the consumption rate is substantially irrelevant), and it is re-enabled when the machine operates with constant consumption in order to produce smooth knits (when control of the consumption rate is essential in order to prevent "stripes" in the finished garment, or size discrepancies).
- the consumption rate YS_meas can be advantageously calculated as the average of the unwinding speeds of the yarns by the respective feeders.
- such unwinding speed is calculated by a speed evaluation block SE as a function of the UWP pulses originating from the third sensor S3.
- the maximum allowable error YS_err which delimits, in modulus, the ends of the interval of error is established in percentage terms, e.g., 5-10%, but it could also be established in terms of difference.
- the comparison between the consumption rate YS meas and the reference rate YS_ref is carried out in a speed regulator block YSR, which consequently generates an output signal YSR_out.
- Such output signal YSR_out is sent to the input of the reference tension T_ref of the tension control block CT by way of a switch YSRS.
- the latter is closed only when the difference between the measured consumption rate YS_meas and the reference rate YS_ref falls within the predefined error range, by way of a reactivation signal YSRS_en which is generated by the speed regulator block YSR.
- the adjustment range of the reference tension is delimited between two preset maximum values, YS_T_ref_min and YS_T_ref_max.
- the method comprises an alarm procedure that stops the machine if the feed under limit tension conditions (YS_T_ref_min or YS_T_ref_max) lasts more than a preset maximum time.
- the method comprises a further alarm procedure that stops the machine if the consumption rate YS_meas does not converge to a value close to the reference rate YS_ref within a preset maximum time.
- the reference tension T_ref in steps in which the machine operates with variable consumption, preferably corresponds to the most recent output signal YSR_out set by the speed regulator block YSR.
- the reference tension T_ref could be set to a fixed value chosen by the user.
- weft braking device 20 could be locked on the most recent adjusted position of the tension controller CT.
- the reference rate YS_ref is advantageously calculated by way of a calibration procedure that comprises the following steps:
- the speed of the machine is provided to the control unit CU by way of the bus 30.
- the yarn consumption rate of the i-th feeder Y_meas_i can be calculated on the basis of the pulses generated by the first sensor S1 instead of by the third sensor S3, assuming that, during operation at constant speed, the quantity of yarn unwound from the drum is equal to the quantity of yarn wound on the drum.
