Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning device for a yarn-forming element of an air-jet spinning nozzle, a spinning station of an air-jet spinning machine and a method for cleaning such a yarn-forming element.
  • a drafting sliver is drawn in a defined manner according to the yarn count to be achieved by means of a multi-roller drafting system and then fed to an air spinning nozzle.
  • the outer fibers of the sliver are wound around an internal fiber core by means of a turbulent air flow generated by air nozzles in the area of an inlet opening of a yarn-forming element of the air spinning nozzle, resulting in an air-yarn-specific yarn structure of a parallel yarn core and twisted fibers lying at a certain angle, whereby the wrapping fibers are crucial for the desired strength of the yarn.
  • the air spinning process can be carried out with fibers made from different materials, both natural fibers such as cotton and/or animal wool and synthetic fibers such as polyester and mixtures of natural and synthetic fibers being able to be used.
  • polymer fibers in particular fibers made of polyester (PES)
  • PET polyester
  • deposits significantly disrupt the air-jet spinning process and significantly reduce the spinning result and thus the yarn quality.
  • yarn breakages can occur during the spinning process due to the increased friction between the surfaces of the air spinning nozzle and the fibers.
  • the air nozzles and other components of the air spinning nozzle can become clogged with deposits, so that the yarn obtained has a lower yarn strength and yarn quality.
  • the possible spinning area is also disadvantageously limited by such deposits.

  • the fixed end is preferably fixed such that it can rotate about an axis of extension of the cleaning tape.
  • the rotatably fixed fixed end consequently rotates passively with delay in the course of the propagating twisting forces acting on the cleaning tape.
  • an active rotation of the fixed end around the axis of extension of the cleaning tape by means of a rotary drive can be provided in order to enable the fixed end to rotate in a controlled, defined, in particular identical, manner in accordance with the movement of the free end, as a result of which the twisting forces can be reduced as required .

  • the thread preparation in particular a unit for thread preparation, can be switched accordingly, with both direct control of the thread preparation for gripping the end of the Cleaning tape is possible, as well as moving the storage unit and / or the free end of the cleaning tape in the area of the thread preparation, so that with a regular operation of the thread preparation now the cleaning tape is taken instead of the yarn.
  • a preferred development of the method for cleaning a yarn-forming element provides that the drawing-in takes place with the turbulent air flow switched on in order to remove deposits and/or to better clean the surface of the discharge channel, since with a switched-on turbulent air flow there is also a movement and/or a turbulence of the cleaning tape.

  • the thread-separating means can particularly preferably be part of the thread preparation, by means of which a thread end can also preferably be suitably prepared in a previously known manner after a spinning interruption for a piecing process.
  • the cleaning tape can also be cleaned when it is drawn in or after it is drawn into the cleaning device, in order to at least partially clean the cleaning tape and to extend its service life.
  • a preferred embodiment of the method for cleaning a yarn-forming element provides that a yarn-forming element is cleaned in the course of a spinning interruption, for example after at least one or each thread breakage, after at least one or each cut of the yarn, during removal of a take-up package wound up by means of the air-spun yarn and/or or during a change of a sliver can, from which the sliver is fed to the spinning position. Cleaning after a thread breakage makes it possible, in particular, for contamination as a possible reason for a thread breakage to be eliminated before the air-jet spinning process is resumed.
  • Cleaning after the yarn has been cut, while the take-up bobbin is being removed or a new empty tube is being inserted in the winding device and during a sliver can change ensures consistently high yarn quality and strength, as does cleaning after a yarn breakage.
  • cleaning can also be carried out periodically with defined identical or mutually different interval sections, in particular based on the operating time of the spinning position, the number of yarn breaks, the Number of yarn cuts, the number of take-up bobbins removed or the number of empty tubes used, the number of sliver can changes, generally the number of spinning interruptions or spinning stops, in order to ensure regular cleaning or to avoid longer periods without cleaning.
  • cleaning can take place before the spinning station is put into operation after a defined downtime and/or before the spinning station is shut down in preparation for a defined downtime. This also ensures that when the air spinning process is resumed, these disruptive deposits in the air spinning nozzle are largely minimized or eliminated.
  • the spinning station can be included in a working station of the air-jet spinning machine.
  • a work station is any position on the air-jet spinning machine at which an air-spun spun thread or yarn is produced by means of the spinning station from a fiber sliver fed to the spinning station and is wound up via a winding device downstream of the spinning station in the yarn path for winding a package, in particular a cross-wound bobbin .
  • the sliver can be fed in via a central sliver store assigned to the air-jet spinning machine or via a sliver store assigned to the individual spinning station, such as a sliver can in particular, in which a defined quantity of sliver is stored so that it can be removed from the sliver can.
