Definitions
- the invention relates to a tool module for textile ⁇ machines, especially for tufting applications.
- the invention relates to a horrido ⁇ module for attachment to a bar of a textile machine, such as a tufting machine or a knitting machine.
- the barre of a tufting machine or knitting machine is provided with a large number of tools, such as grippers, needles, hole needles, knives or the like, which are grouped together in modules.
- Each module comprises a base in or on which a number of tools are mounted.
- modules are connected to the bar.
- module bodies are typically provided with positive locking structures, which facilitate a positionally correct positioning of each module on the bar.
- a module provided with a provided in the module body larger recess into which a positioning element can be inserted. This passes through alignment openings provided in the module body openings in order to come into correct contact with these openings.
- the insert has further alignment structures which come into abutment with complementary shapes of the bar.
- a set of different inserts which are fitted with different alignment structures. hen are, allows adaptation to different bars ⁇ systems.
- a tool module is known, whose module body has alignment structures and recesses running along the alignment structures. These are intended to improve positioning of the modules on a bar.

- the alignment structure includes at least one jump ahead and / or at least one recess that can engage with a corresponding complementary shape of the bar to allow a clear positioning of the tool module on the bar.
- the alignment structure is formed by a continuous or interrupted strip which is located at the edge of a contact surface. is arranged, with which the module body comes into contact with the bar. The strip then has a bearing surface which rests on another surface of the bar. The strip can be arranged between the contact surface and a narrow side of the module body.
- the tool module is penetrated by at least one not matching with the mounting hole opening, which thus has neither fastening function nor positioning function (form-fitting function).
- the opening preferably has a closed edge, but may also be open at the lateral narrow sides of the module mouth-like opening.
- the contact surface by ⁇ settling and on the side remote from the contact surface side open from the mounting opening opening reduces the weight of the tool module, reduces the heat ⁇ transition surface of the module on the bar and thus reduces the heating of the bar.
- the at least one opening during operation of the machine can promote the cooling of the module.
- the heat generated by friction of the tools on a backing or other textile or on a thread heat is absorbed by the module body and delivered to the environment and now in a reduced manner to the machine bar.

- the tools with- For example, tufting needles, grippers, knives or the like, are taken with a mounting end in this module body, ie poured into this. After solidification and cooling of the module body, they may have a certain degree of straightness deviation (unevenness), in particular at their position-determining surfaces, for example the contact surface.
- Geradheitsschwankeptept of the module body can be reduced and the influence of such errors Geradheitsab ⁇ deviations reduced to the positioning accuracy. The entire clamping situation of the tool module is thus improved.
- the contact surface of the tool module is the Bar ⁇ re facing and in operation at this adjoining surface.
- the contact surface is planar, wherein associated Ele ⁇ elements protrude away from the contact surface to the alignment structure.
- Such elements may include projections in Ge ⁇ Stalt of prismatic, cylindrical or dome-shaped projections which preferably extend parallel to each other ⁇ from the abutment surface clear. These projections are typically associated with corresponding recess in the bar.
- one of the projections a continuous or better yet interrupted strip which is disposed adjacent to a narrow side of the Mo ⁇ dul stressess. This narrow side is the side that is interspersed with tool shanks of the textile tools.
- the strip When the strip is broken, it can be reduced to two standing at the corners of the module before ⁇ jumps. This provides a maximum Ge ⁇ weight reduction when fully maintaining or improving the positioning accuracy.
- the bar If the bar is the only front ⁇ handene alignment structure, the modules on the bar for machine setup can adjust the side or move.
- the above-mentioned, for example, cylindrical or otherwise formed projections are preferably arranged on both sides of the mounting opening on a line which is arranged parallel to the narrow side of the module body and thus to the strip provided there.
- This division creates a third zone between one zone of the module body in which the tool shafts are gripped and another zone containing the attachment opening and on both sides thereof the projections, in which the additional openings for weight reduction, straightness improvement and Konvetationsverbesse - tion are arranged.
- the tool shank receiving zone and the fastening zone serving by two, preferably three mutually parallel webs are interconnected, of which at least two, preferably three, each of the same cross-section aufwei ⁇ sen.
- the mounting aperture has a diameter that substantially matches the diameter of one of the projections. However, this is not zwin ⁇ quietly. However, it is desirable to adjust the diameter of the buildin ⁇ actuating opening on the fastener so as not to weaken the attachment portion of the module body over charge. If a certain small Nachgie ⁇ bigkeit of the module body is desired at all, this can be provided by the two to three extending between the mounting portion and the tool portion webs ⁇ who.
