Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an open-end type of spinning apparatus with an improved device for loading a new tube in the doffing cycle and the method for loading a new tube in the doffing cycle of said open-end type spinning apparatus.
  • the tube restraint system in a spinning apparatus intervenes in the phase of loading a new tube in the doffing cycle, i.e. after an already formed reel has been removed from the tips of the reel-holder arm to be taken away, and a new empty tube must be positioned between the same tips to serve as support for the yarn, so as to wind and form a new reel thereon.
  • the empty tubes are taken from a special basket positioned above the winding unit; in this basket there are four or five empty tubes lying for example horizontally; the basket is positioned slightly inclined to ensure that at least one tube is at the lower end of the basket itself at all times.
  • the doffing tray which is provided on the spinning apparatus, grasps the lower tube by means of suitable pincers to position it between the tailstocks of the reel-holder arm. Because of gravity and the inclination of the basket, all the tubes will lean against each other.
  • tube restraint devices are known in the art which have the purpose of separating the tubes from each other so as to facilitate the step of automatically capturing them by means of special pincers: in the absence of such restraint devices, the pincers would not easily be able to pick up the empty tube and, inserting themselves forcefully between the tubes, could also damage the empty tubes.
  • Cited solutions are known from GB 2179066 A , US 4638956 A , JP S5335030 A , US 4125990 A .
  • the spinning apparatus 4 comprises at least one spinning head 8 having a spinning unit 12 and a reel winding unit 16, wherein the reel winding unit 16 winds, onto a tube 20, a reel of yarn obtained from the underlying spinning unit 12.
  • the spinning apparatus 4 comprises a tube-holder basket 24 housing a plurality of tubes 20 on which to wind the yarn.
  • such tubes 20 are arranged in a horizontal position and stacked on each other in direct contact with each other.
  • the spinning apparatus 4 further comprises a doffing tray 28 which may be positioned at the spinning unit 12 and provided with pick-up and transport devices 32 for a tube 20 from the tube-holder basket 24 to a pair of tailstocks 76,80 ( figures 6-7 ) of the reel winding unit 16.
  • the pick-up and transport device 32 comprises a pair of pincers 40,44 suitable to grip a tube 20, provided with respective actuation means 48.
  • the doffing tray 28 comprises a tube separator device 52 having a support arm 56 which supports two blades 60, 64 which are movable so as to intercept a number of tubes 20 contained in the tube-holder basket 24 and to separate them at least partially from a tube 20' destined to be grasped by the pick-up and transport device 32 and placed between the tailstocks 76, 80.
  • the reel winding unit 16 comprises a pair of levers 68,72 which support left and right tailstocks 76, 80, suitable to support a tube 20, hinged one to the other and with an elastic means 84, for example a spring, interposed in order to mechanically connect the levers 68,72 to each other, allowing the simultaneous opening and closing thereof by acting on only one of said levers.
  • an elastic means 84 for example a spring
  • the doffing tray 28 is also provided with actuating devices of at least one of said levers 68, 72, so as to control the opening and closing thereof.
  • Said tailstocks 76,80 are mounted floating on the respective levers 68,72 so as to automatically center the tube 20 on the tailstocks 76,80, during the closing step thereof.
  • the tube separator device 52 and the pick-up and transport device 32 are mechanically independent of each other, so that they may be operated separately.
  • the pincers 40,44 are provided with actuation means 48 which are mechanically independent from the movement means 88 of the tube separator device 52.
  • the tube separator device 52 comprises the pair of blades 60,64 retractable so as to reach, in the extracted position ( figure 3 ), the tube-holder basket 24, intercepting a group of tubes 20 and separating them from a tube 20' destined to be gripped by the pick-up and transport device 32.
  • the tube separator device 52 is provided with movement means 88, which permit the passage from a retracted configuration to an extracted configuration according to a substantially rectilinear movement, and with tilting means 92, which allow the tilting of the blades 60,64 according to a tilting axis X-X substantially parallel to a horizontal lying axis of the tube 20' to be picked up.
  • the movement means 88 comprise a piston 94 to which a joint 96 is attached with a peg, to the joint 96 of which are integral the separator blades 60,64 and a cam 100 attached to the doffing tray 28.
  • the tilting means 92 comprise a skate 104, integral with said blades 60,64 and engaged in a cam 100 provided with a groove 108 which defines a curvilinear path suitable to allow said tilting movement of the blades 60,64.
  • the open-end type spinning apparatus 4 comprises a control unit programmed for:
  • the control unit is programmed to operate, via the support arm 56, at least one of said tailstocks 76,80 to automatically grasp and center the tube 20'.
  • the apparatus allows a method for unloading a reel to be carried out comprising the steps of:
  • the method of loading a new tube 20' in the doffing cycle of a spinning apparatus 4 comprises the step of actuating, via the support arm 56, at least one of said tailstocks 76,80 to automatically grasp and center the tube 20'.
  • the open-end type spinning apparatus and the method for unloading a reel from an open-end type spinning apparatus according to the invention allows the drawbacks presented in the prior art to be overcome.
  • the solution of the present invention provides for the independence of the two movements, i.e. the step of separating the tubes and the step of picking up and transporting the tube between the tailstocks.
  • the tube separator device being independent of the tube-holder arm, may be operated at different times; for example, it is allowed to return with reduced speed so that the tubes made to withdraw redescend in contact with the separator and in an orderly manner, avoiding incorrect positioning of the tubes on the respective guides.
  • the arm itself may be opened not only by the tray of the open-end machine but also by hand.
