Definitions

  • a method for removing impurities, particularly dust and/or very small portions of fibers contained in a sliver during the opening of fibers from the sliver in an opening device of an open-end spinning machine in which the sliver is fed by a feeding device to toothed surface of an opening roller, by which the individual fibers of the sliver in the opening zone are pulled out from the grip by the sliver feeding device and are guided in the opening device along a primary removal zone to remove small and very small impurities, and subsequently are guided along a secondary removal zone to remove the other impurities.
  • the invention also relates to a device for removing impurities, particularly dust particles and/or very small portions of fibers from a sliver in a spinning unit of an open-end spinning machine comprising a sliver feeding device associated with an opening device of sliver with a rotating opening roller with toothed surface for opening the fibers from the supplied sliver in an opening zone, whereby the spinning unit further comprises primary impurities removal zone provided with a sieve and a secondary impurities removal zone, the two zones being associated with the toothed surface of the opening roller and connected to an air vacuum system for removing impurities.
  • One of the problems associated with the production of textile goods is the removal of impurities introduced into the machine by the material being processed or arising from the processing of the material.
  • the cleanliness of the machine and its devices is particularly important in the processing of fine materials, for example in the production of yarns.
  • machines are usually equipped with a vacuum suction system, or a gravity system. Their purpose is above all to eliminate hard impurities which are contained in the fibrous material, and, in the case of open-end spinning machines, the principal purpose is to prevent the clogging of a collecting groove of a spinning rotor.
  • document DE102008037000A1 solves the cleaning of a collecting groove of the spinning rotor after interrupting the spinning process and after opening the spinning unit by spraying the interior of the spinning rotor cup with hot pressure steam.
  • a device with an electrically driven rotary brush is clamped to the front of the unit after opening the spinning unit, whereupon the brush cleans the collecting groove and sucks the loose impurities.
  • the spinning process is also interrupted and the lid of the spinning unit is uncovered, whereupon he mouth of a suction tube of an adjoining service robot is brought to the interior of a rotor cup, in the immediate vicinity of a collecting groove.
  • the rotor is rotated by a friction plate, which is also part of the service robot, and accelerated to speeds in which the adhering impurities are affected by centrifugal force and then sucked off by the suction tube.
  • CZ304228B6 solves, among other things, the removal of the maximum possible amount of impurities from the spun fibrous material.
  • this hole serves to remove the impurities from the sliver being opened, and on the other hand, through this hole the air needed for spinning is sucked in by a vacuum system. Obviously, sucking this air in does not hamper the removal of heavier hard particles, but it works against the removal of fine and light particles.
  • CZ262402B2 discloses a solution in which the primary impurities removal zone is arranged directly in the opening zone, i.e. immediately beyond the edge of an inlet for feeding fibers to an opening roller, i.e. in a zone where the rear ends of the fibers are still held by a grip in the nip line by a sliver feeding device.
  • the sieve is moved further from the edge of the inlet opening, on both lateral sides of the opening zone are arranged suction holes covered with sieves for sucking the impurities directly from the opening zone, these holes being connected through channels to a central channel.
  • the disadvantage of this embodiment is the fact that in the opening zone the loosening of the sliver only starts and thus the release of impurities begins only then, and from such an imperfectly loosened sliver in which the rear ends of the fibers are still held by the feeding device, the fine particles of dust and very small portions of the fibers, i.e., the particles having a low weight, are not sufficiently released and subsequently sucked off, which means that such particles are not removed from the fibers with such efficiency as is expected in modern machines.
  • Another drawback is that the discharging channel described herein serves at the same time as an air supply to the spinning rotor, which further worsens the efficiency of the removal of small and very small impurities.
  • the aim of the invention is to prevent clogging and subsequent solid depositing of small and light particles at places from which they cannot easily be removed and to propose a device for the early removal of such particles even without having to stop production process during the operation of the spinning machine.
  • the aim of the invention is achieved by a method for removing impurities, particularly dust particles and/or very small portions of fibers, whose principle consists in that in a primary removal zone, the fibers and impurities are acted upon by the vacuum from the central channel only behind (downstream of) an opening zone, whereupon in the secondary removal zone the fibers and impurities are simultaneously acted upon by centrifugal force and the vacuum from the central channel.
  • This is made possible primarily by placing the primary zone immediately downstream of the opening zone, where the small particles are most easily removed by the vacuum.
  • the size of the impurities sucked off is limited by a sieve through which the particles are sucked off by the vacuum, the individual sieve holes having a cross-section area not exceeding 1 mm 2 .
  • the aim of the invention is also achieved by a device for removing impurities, particularly dust particles and/or very small portions of fibers from a sliver in a spinning unit, whose principle consists in that a primary removal zone is arranged downstream of an opening zone and upstream of a secondary removal zone, whereby the width of the primary removal zone corresponds to the working width of an opening roller and the primary and secondary removal zones are connected to a vacuum system for sucking off impurities.
  • FIG. 1 is a view of the respective parts of a spinning unit in the direction of the axis of rotation of an opening roller of an opening device and perpendicularly to the axis of rotation of a spinning rotor
  • Fig. 2 is an oblique view into the inner space of the body of the opening device.
  • Fig. 1 schematically represents a structure of a well-known spinning unit of an open-end spinning machine, which comprises a spinning rotor 1 with a conical cup 11 and a collecting groove 12 near the cup 11 bottom and a canopy 13 entering the cup 11 of the spinning rotor 1 in the axis of rotation of the spinning rotor 1 with an unillustrated draw-off funnel of the spun-out yarn.
  • a channel 14 supplying the rotor 1 with the fibers singled out by an opening device 2 opens into the cup 11 of the spinning rotor 1 obliquely with respect to the collecting groove 12 .
  • a well-known opening roller 22 with an unillustrated toothed surface 23, driven in the direction S1.
  • the sliver (not shown) is fed in the direction S3 by means of a well-known feeding roller 24 driven in the direction S2, towards the circumference of the feeding roller 24 the sliver is pushed by a feeding table 25.
  • the sliver is thus supplied to the toothed surface 23 of the opening roller 22, by which the sliver is singled out into individual fibers which are pulled out from the grip between the feeding roller 24 and the feeding table 25 to the opening zone 26 and further carried through the gap around the toothed surface 23 of the opening roller 22 to the channel 14 through which the individual fibers are fed to the rotor 1.
  • the system of removing impurities according to the invention is divided into two zones, consisting of two successively spaced holes around the circumference of the body 21 of the opening device 2 .
  • a primary removal zone 3 is arranged immediately downstream of the opening zone 26 and is formed by a hole 31, which is joined by a discharging channel 32 which opens into a central channel 6 of the removal of impurities.
  • the impurities are acted upon by the vacuum from the central channel 6 in the radial direction towards the gap around the toothed surface 23 of the opening roller 22, by which the fibers singled out/being singled out are withdrawn together with the impurities, whereby the fibers are dispersed after the start of the opening process in the opening zone 26, and so the air sucked off from the gap around the surface 23 of the opening roller 22 in the primary removal zone 3 passes between them, carrying the small and light particles of impurities which have been released by the opening and which are further carried through the discharging channel 32 to the central channel 6.
  • the width L1 of the primary removal zone 3 corresponds to the working width of the opening roller 22.
  • the hole 31 in the primary removal zone 3 in the wall of the body 21 of the opening device 2 is covered by a sieve formed by a network of circular, square or other shaped through flow holes (not shown), whereby the cross-sectional area of each of these elementary openings does not exceed 1 mm 2 .
  • the opening process in the opening zone 26 is highly effective. Therefore, in the primary removal zone 3 even small and very light impurity particles are reliably sucked off from the sliver.
  • the force acting here upon small and light particles of impurities is practically determined only by the vacuum air in the hole 31, which, due to the loosening of the fibers in the opening zone 26, is sufficient to remove these particles from the sliver.
  • Through the discharging channel 32 assigned to the primary removal zone 3 the air is sucked in only from the space of the opening roller through the opening zone 26.
  • the length of the opening zone 26 is determined by the production technology.
  • the primary removal zone 3, 31 is terminated in the body 21 of the opening device 2 by an edge 27, which constitutes the beginning of the secondary removal zone 5 formed by an open mouth of the discharging channel 51, adjoining in the tangential direction the gap between the toothed surface 23 of the opening roller 22 and the circumference of a cylindrical cavity of the body 21 of the opening device 2.
  • Larger and heavier particles of impurities are withdrawn from the fibers by the discharging channel 51, whereby they are removed primarily by the centrifugal force acting on them during the movement of the fibers.
  • the exhaust of these separated particles to the discharging channel 51 is ensured by the vacuum in this channel.
  • the discharging channel 51 opens into a collection vacuum channel 4, which is in the direction S4 of the air flow connected to the central channel 6 and whose inlet opening is connected to the surrounding atmosphere. The particles are withdrawn together from both the removal zones 3 and 5 through the central channel 6.
  • the device according to the invention substantially reduces the amount of particularly small and light particles of impurities entering the interior space of the spinning unit which in the devices of the background art require difficult and time-consuming cleaning.
