Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a work station of a textile machine according to the preamble of the independent method claim.
  • a higher-level operating and display device comprises a first stationary unit, which essentially comprises a power supply, communication with a network, data storage and administration, as well as a computer and a second mobile unit, which has an operating and display unit.
  • the stationary unit is used for input and display, among other things, for troubleshooting, while the second mobile unit can be used for settings, parameterizations and / or queries.
  • the disadvantage here is that only simple measures or measures known to the operator can be carried out via the mobile unit. To troubleshoot, on the other hand, he must contact the higher-level, permanently installed unit to find an error. Particularly in the case of very long textile machines, this requires a great deal of time because of the large distances. The operator must continue to have a lot of his own know-how to correct a fault or perform maintenance work. He does not receive any significant support from the machine.
  • From the US 5,224,047 A is a textile machine with a plurality of work stations, here winding stations known, which has a central control and a portable communication device.
  • the operator visually inspects at least one of the large number of winding units and transmits the result of this visual inspection by means of the portable communication device to the central control of the machine.
  • the operator receives no support in his work.
  • a high level of qualification of the operating personnel is required and, in addition, displays at the individual winding unit are required, which can be read by the operator and entered into the portable communication device.
  • DE3135333A1 discloses a method and a control unit for a spinning plant with a central data memory, which is connected to work stations equipped with signaling devices. This data memory is connected to an interrogation device in which orderly operating case possibilities are stored. The respective workstation requiring operation can be determined according to the size of the damage via a transceiver arrangement controlled by the interrogation device.
  • WO2011027366 discloses a real-time system for the continuous detection of yarn breaks in a textile machine.
  • the object of the present invention is to simplify the operation of a work station of a textile machine and to enable an operator, who only needs to have little know-how, to operate a work station.
  • the method according to the invention serves to operate a work station of a textile machine, in particular a textile machine with a large number of similar work stations.
  • Textile machines of this type can be, for example, cards, draw frames or combers or else slitting machines, such as ring spinning machines, rotor spinning machines, air spinning machines or winding machines.
  • the operation of such machines is often semi-automated. However, the use of operators is still necessary for certain activities. For operation The job is to carry out a large number of individual and depending on the situation different work steps of a work order.
  • the working steps can consist, for example, of opening a spinning box, removing or cleaning a rotor, closing the spinning box again, looking for and preparing a thread end on a bobbin, and using the thread end for piecing or at least for a machine suitable to put down.
  • opening a spinning box removing or cleaning a rotor
  • closing the spinning box again, looking for and preparing a thread end on a bobbin, and using the thread end for piecing or at least for a machine suitable to put down.
  • a textile machine of this type can also have, for example, 600 or more spinning stations, so that it is often not clear to the operating personnel at which work station manual intervention is required.
  • a control system superior to the communication device for example the control of the textile machine, can come into contact with the operator.
  • the controller is able to send a work instruction to carry out a work step to the portable communication device of the operator.
  • further work instructions for operating the work station are sent to the portable communication device of the operator from the control or are displayed there if the work order has not yet been completed.
  • the controller thus recognizes that the last notified work step was carried out or could possibly not have been carried out or was not carried out within a certain predetermined time and thus passes the next work instruction on to the operator. This continues until the work order has been processed or is canceled.
  • the next work step can be displayed in the portable communication device when the information about the individual work steps has already been stored in the portable communication device.
  • the controller is thus able to output detailed work instructions step by step to fulfill the work order, or the individual work steps are gradually displayed in the portable communication device.
  • the operator can thus gradually carry out the individual work steps.
  • the higher-level controller or the communication device recognizes that the next work step can be instructed.
  • the controller or the communication device thus guides the operator step by step through the work order. The operator therefore no longer has to be able to independently know all the steps involved in completing a work order.
  • the control therefore issues instructions to the portable communication device, receives feedback from the communication device or from the work station that the last instruction was carried out or could not be carried out or was canceled and then gives the following work instructions to the communication device out.
  • work instructions can consist, for example, of carrying out certain work at the place of work.
  • the work instruction in particular the first or last work instruction of a work order, can also consist in the operator or the portable communication device being moved to a specific work place in order to serve it.
  • the controller can thus advantageously also recognize where the operator or the portable communication device is at the moment and determine from the operator's need for the entire textile machine which job should be served next.
  • control unit sends or displays a further work instruction for performing a work step to the portable communication device until the work order has been completely processed or canceled.
  • the work instruction is thus divided into individual, small, easy to carry out work steps and is gradually sent to the portable communication device or displayed there.
  • the control monitors the fulfillment of each work step and the instruction is only issued if this work step has been acknowledged by the work station or the portable communication device sent from the controller to the portable communication device for the next step or released in the communication device.
  • control can send and / or display an even more detailed work instruction for carrying out the failed work step to the portable communication device. This enables the operator to carry out the work step with more detailed help and, if necessary, to complete it successfully.
  • the work instruction is preferably issued optically and / or acoustically and / or haptically on the portable communication device.
  • the operator can thus see or hear the work instruction or, for example, vibrations on the portable communication device can also be used to identify which activity is to be carried out next.
  • the operating personnel can be informed, for example, by means of a vibration, that incorrect operation has taken place or caution is required.
  • the portable communication device is preferably equipped in such a way that it has detection and / or playback devices which are suitable for optical, acoustic and / or haptic inputs and / or outputs. These optical, acoustic and / or haptic and inputs and / or outputs facilitate the operation of the workplace. It is also possible, for example, to confirm or receive work steps by means of a gesture control.
  • the wireless communication device is connected to a workstation controller and / or a machine controller and / or a system controller, in particular wirelessly, simple communication between the communication device and the controller is made possible.
  • the execution of a specific work step can be passed on directly from the workstation controller to the communication device. It is thus possible, for example, that if the work station is operated incorrectly, the control of the work station transmits a corresponding signal to the portable communication device and signals it to the operating personnel. that this step was carried out incorrectly.
  • the portable communication device communicates with the machine controller, the corresponding work instructions and the completion of a specific activity or questions of the operator can be exchanged between the portable communication device and the machine controller.
  • the operator When communicating the portable communication device with a system controller, it is also possible for the operator to be sent to another textile machine in the system if there is a work order with a higher priority.
  • the controller preferably sends a work instruction for a specific work station and / or machine depending on the location of the portable communication device and / or the operator. This makes it possible for the operator to keep the routes short and thus optimize the operator's workload. Thus, it may be advantageous if the operator is sent to a job on a neighboring machine rather than being sent to the other end or the other side of the same machine.
  • the controller preferably sends information about a specific operating status of a work station to the portable communication device. In this way, the operator can, for example, decide which additional tool is required to carry out the work steps. On the other hand, it is also possible for the control to output to the operator as a first work step that a specific tool or spare part is to be obtained.
  • An operating device for a work station of a textile machine, in particular a textile machine with a large number of similar work stations, such as a card, draw frame, comber or a slitting machine such as a ring spinning machine, rotor spinning machine, air spinning machine or winding machine, serves to support the operation of the textile machine by a Operator.
  • the operating device comprises a control of the textile machine and a portable communication device.
  • the controller is connected to the portable communication device for data exchange, so that the operator and the Control can communicate with each other via the portable communication device.
  • the control of the textile machine or the work place can be used for sending out a specific work step.
  • the work instructions can also be transmitted to the portable communication device via the Internet by means of remote maintenance.
  • the controller is connected to the portable communication device for data exchange so that the operator and the controller can communicate with each other via the portable communication device.
  • the controller sends a work instruction for performing a work step to the portable communication device.
  • the portable communication device sends signals to the controller to notify that the operation has been performed or could not be performed. These signals can also be sent from the workstation control itself to the higher-level control.
  • the higher-level control system is designed such that, if necessary, it sends further work instructions for operating the work station to the portable communication device as soon as the previous work step has been carried out, could not be carried out or the work order has been processed.
  • the portable communication device has detection and / or playback devices for optical, acoustic and / or haptic inputs and / or outputs is particularly advantageous. This makes the portable communication device very easy for the operating personnel to handle. Inputs or outputs can be made optically, for example by displaying images, acoustically, for example with voice instructions or haptically, for example by means of vibrations of the device.
  • the portable communication device has detection and / or playback devices for 2 and / or 3-dimensional inputs and / or outputs.
  • the 3-dimensional outputs of the portable communication device can be used to illustrate the work steps to be carried out in a particularly clear manner.
  • the work step can be reproduced, for example, as an augmented reality.
  • the operator sees exactly the individual work steps which are to be carried out below at the work site.
  • the portable communication device is preferably a portable computer, a data telephone, a data clock or data glasses.
  • smartphones, smartwatches or smartglasses are used so that the operator's work instructions can be transmitted in a particularly clear and simple manner.
  • a side view of a textile machine 1 is shown, which has a plurality of similar work stations 2.
  • the work stations 2 are arranged between two end frames 3.
  • a machine control 4 which is connected to individual workstation controls 6 by means of a data line 5.
  • each work station 2 has different components in order to be able to fulfill the task of the work station 2, such as a spin box 7 in a rotor spinning machine.
  • the operator 8 In front of the textile machine 1 there is an operator 8 who operates a work station 2.
  • the operator 8 has access to one or more portable communication devices.
  • portable communication devices are, for example, a data telephone 9, a data clock 10 or data glasses 11.
  • Each of these communication devices has input and / or output elements.
  • the data glasses 11 can be designed in such a way that it provides 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional displays of the operator 8, as a result of which the operator 8 is even more easily able to carry out certain activities at the work station 2.
  • a data exchange between the machine controller 4 and the portable communication device 9, 10 and / or 11 is set up.
  • the machine controller 4 sends information about the individual work steps to the portable communication research 9, 10 and / or 11, for example via a wireless data line 12.
  • one work step after the other can be sent to the portable communication device 9, 10 and / or 11 as soon as the work station 2 notifies the machine control 4, for example via the data line 5, that the work step has been carried out.
  • the machine controller 4 then sends information on the next work step to the portable communication device 9, 10 and / or 11.
  • the machine controller 4 has already sent all work steps of a work order to the portable communication device 9, 10 and / or 11 and the individual work steps are gradually displayed in the communication device 9, 10 and / or 11 as soon as a work step is completed.
  • a further additional or alternative possibility is that the instructions to the portable communication device 9, 10 and / or 11 are carried out via a data line 14 by means of an external controller 15.
  • the wireless data line 14 causes information from the external controller 15 to be sent directly to the portable communication device 9, 10 and / or 11. This is particularly advantageous in the case of several textile machines 1 in a factory, since the operator 8 can thereby be sent to different textile machines 1 and can carry out operating work there.
