Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for compressing a sliver on a spinning machine with a rotating compressing element which is subjected to suction air and is held in a housing, the suction air being guided to the compressing element via a suction air duct provided in the device with a first section and a second section, wherein the first section of the suction air channel is delimited by the compression element and a connection of the first section to a vacuum source is provided via the second section of the suction air channel.
  • a compacting device being arranged downstream for compacting (compacting) the fiber material (fiber strand) delivered by a drafting unit.
  • the compressed fiber material is fed to a twist-generating device after it has passed a nip point.
  • a twist generating device consists z. B. in a ring spinning machine from a runner that rotates on a ring, wherein the yarn produced is wound onto a rotating sleeve.
  • suctioned, circulating, perforated suction drums or circulating, perforated aprons are used as compression devices.
  • a special suction area is defined on the compression element using appropriate inserts within the suction drum or within the peripheral aprons.
  • Such operations can z. B. be provided with appropriately shaped suction slots, to which a negative pressure is applied, whereby a corresponding air flow is generated at the periphery of the respective compression element.
  • This air flow which is essentially aligned transversely to the direction of transport of the fiber material, also binds in particular protruding fibers.
  • Generic devices for compressing a sliver are for example from CH 704 137 A1 or the CH 705 307 A1 known.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of proposing a device for the simple display of the loading of the compression element with suction air.
  • a device for compressing a sliver on a spinning machine with a compressing element which is subjected to suction air and rotates and which is held on a housing, the suction air being guided to the compressing element via a suction air duct provided in the housing with a first section and a second section, wherein the first section of the suction air channel is delimited by the compression element and a connection of the first section to a vacuum source is provided via the second section of the suction air channel.
  • An air duct independent of the suction air duct is provided with a first duct part, a display duct and a second duct part, the display duct being arranged between the first duct part and the second duct part and being at least partially transparent and the first duct part being connected to the first section of the suction air duct and the second channel part is connected to the environment with an opening in the housing and a display element that can move freely over the length of the display channel is provided in the display channel.
  • suction drums or sieve aprons can be used as circulating compression elements.
  • Suction air is applied to the compression element through a suction air duct, which is connected to a vacuum source.
  • the negative pressure source can be designed as a channel running along a spinning machine, to which the suction air channel of the individual compression device is connected.
  • This suction air channel is held in a housing at least in the area of the compression element or is formed by the housing itself.
  • the suction air duct consists of two sections, with a first section adjoining the compression element and the suction air thus passing through the compression element from the vicinity of the compression element by the vacuum source is sucked in.
  • the first section of the suction air duct is thus designed with an opening towards the compression element. Due to the design of the compression element, there is a corresponding limitation of the opening of the suction air channel.
  • the air duct which is independent of the suction air duct, can be integrated in the housing or provided separately from the housing. Designs are also conceivable in which parts of the air duct, such as the display duct, are at least partially formed by a housing wall.
  • the air duct is connected to the suction air duct in the region of the compression element via a first duct part and to the environment via a second duct part, with the display duct being arranged between the first and second duct parts.
  • the first duct part creates a connection of the display duct with the first section of the suction air duct.
  • a connection point of the first duct part of the air duct with the first section of the suction air duct is advantageously arranged close to the delimitation of the suction air duct by the compression element.
  • the opening provided in the housing for the connection of the second duct part of the air duct is provided at a point on the housing which on the one hand is not covered by other units and on the other hand enables simple duct routing.
  • the opening in the housing can lead to a chamber located in the housing, from which the connection to the display channel takes place.
  • the channel routing as well as the geometric shape of the second channel are not essential as long as there is a connection to the environment.
  • the second channel can have a smaller diameter at the connection to the display channel than at the connection to the opening or can have a widening between the intake channel and the opening in the housing. In the case of a widening to form a chamber, there is the possibility that the second channel part of an adjacent device is connected with its second channel part to the same widening or chamber.
  • the geometric shape of the display element provided in the display channel and freely movable over the length of the display channel is adapted to an internal free cross section of the display channel, so that the element can be moved through the display channel by the suction air flow without the display element becoming wedged in the display channel. It is also important to ensure that with the suction air flow through the opening to the first section of the suction air duct applied to the display element, a stable position of the display element within the display duct is achieved. Because of this, it is advantageous if the display element is made from a lightweight plastic. A position of the display element can then be used to determine whether or not there is a vacuum in the first section of the suction air duct.
  • the display element in the display duct is moved in the direction of the first duct part and remains in a position of the display duct at which the display duct merges into the first duct part. If the negative pressure on the compression element drops, for example due to a lack of or insufficient application of negative pressure to the suction air duct or a blockage in the suction air duct, the display element in the display duct is moved in the direction of the second duct part and remains in a position of the display duct at which the display duct enters the second channel part passes.
  • the geometric arrangement of the display channel is to be provided depending on its structural design. If the negative pressure in the first section of the suction air duct falls below a specific limit value at the point where the first duct part is connected, the display element should move from one end of the display duct to the other end of the display duct. This can be done, for example, by the influence of gravity if the display channel is arranged accordingly in space, with the weight of the display element having to be matched to the limiting value of the negative pressure.
  • the display element is moved against a spring by the applied negative pressure, so that when the negative pressure drops, the display element is transferred by the spring into a specific position in the display channel.
  • the display channel is preferably delimited by the housing on at least one side and the housing is transparent in a region of the display channel.
  • the display element is visible through the transparent housing from the outside of the housing. Integrating the display channel into the housing has the advantage that fewer components have to be used and cost-effective production is possible. Used by the transparent area only If part of the display channel is visible, this has the advantage that it can be arranged in such a way that the part of the display channel in which the display element is located is visible when there is a fault or the negative pressure on the compression element has fallen below a certain limit value.
  • part of the display channel is covered by other components provided on the housing, for example the compression element. For an operator of the spinning machine, this means that as soon as the display element is visible, there is a fault and the corresponding compression device must be cleaned or replaced.
  • the display duct is designed in such a way that the display element is arranged on an end of the display duct facing towards the second duct part when the first section of the suction air duct is in a pressureless state.
  • This design has the advantage that if there is negative pressure at the point where the first duct part is connected to the sag air duct, the display element is sucked against the first duct part of the air duct and thus leaves a defined position for displaying a fault.
  • a position of the display element in the display channel which corresponds to a negative pressure for a rule-compliant operation of the compression device, does not necessarily have to correspond to an end position of the display element in the display channel in this design. As a result, it is easy to distinguish between an only slight drop in the negative pressure and falling below a limit value for the negative pressure.
  • the display element is arranged on an end of the display channel facing towards the first channel part when the first section of the suction air channel is in a state in which suction air is applied.
  • the display channel with the display element is designed in such a way that the display element is at one end of the display channel during normal operation and at the other end of the display channel in the event of a fault, clear and simple allocation of the display is always possible.
  • the display element remains between the two end positions, it can be used to display a malfunction of the device for displaying a fault.
  • the display element preferably provides at least a partial closure of the display channel against the first channel part. Since the display channel is connected to the environment via the second channel part on one side and to the suction air channel on the other side via the first channel part, the negative pressure prevailing in the suction air channel results in a constant flow of air through the air channel. In order to reduce or completely prevent this air flow, which is unnecessary for operation of the compression device, it is advantageous if the indicator element, held by the prevailing negative pressure in the first duct part, is used to seal the transition from the indicator duct into the first duct part. Due to the large number of compression devices in a spinning machine, a considerable saving in energy consumption is already achieved by a partial seal by reducing the constant air flow.
  • the first channel part has a smaller cross-section than the display channel. Due to the fact that the design of the cross sections of the various channel parts is correspondingly coordinated with one another, the display element does not get into the first channel part or can become wedged in the transition from the display channel to the first channel part. Furthermore, it is also advantageous if the second channel part has a smaller or at least differently shaped cross section than the display channel, so that the display element cannot leave the display channel.
  • the display element is colored to make it visible.
  • coloring the display element for example with a luminous color or a contrasting color to the transparent housing or display channel, a fault can be displayed at first glance and even from a greater distance.
  • the indicator is a sphere. Due to the movements of the indicator element within the indicator channel, it has been found that a sphere is the least prone to jamming when turbulence occurs.
  • a sensor for determining a position of the display element.
  • a sensor By equipping it with a sensor, it becomes possible to set up a detection of a fault by a control system or a higher-level monitoring system. It is possible to switch off individual spinning stations of a spinning machine that are affected by non-functional compression. Operators can also be alerted to a malfunction with alarm signals activated by the sensor that can be seen or heard from afar.
  • the opening of the second channel part in the housing to the environment is provided with a filter.
  • the filter prevents fiber dust or other foreign bodies from the environment from penetrating the air duct or the display duct and preventing the display element from moving freely, as a result of which it would not be possible to display a fault reliably.
  • the filter is detachably or fixedly connected to the housing to cover the opening of the second duct part in the housing.
  • a spinning machine with a device for compressing a sliver according to the above description is also proposed.
  • figure 1 shows a schematic representation of a spinning station 15 of a ring spinning machine with a drafting unit 16 and a subsequent compression device with a compression element 2 according to the prior art.
  • a fiber material in the form of a roving 17 fed to the drafting system unit 16 is subjected to a draft between the roller pairs of the drafting system unit 16 and leaves the drafting system unit 16 as sliver 1.

  • the exit bottom rolls 18 are driven by a common shaft.
  • a fiber sliver 1 arriving via the lower output rollers 18 is guided around the compression element 2 and leaves this as a compacted thread 20 in the direction of the spinning station 15 (see Fig figure 1 ).

  • the second section 6 of the suction air duct 4 is connected to a vacuum source 7 via a connection 35 .
  • the vacuum source 7 is shown as a vacuum channel. Due to the negative pressure prevailing in the suction air duct 4, air is drawn in through the suction openings 30 of the compression element 2 and as a result a suction air flow 34 is produced from the compression element 2 to the negative pressure source 7.
  • An air duct 8 is also provided in the housing 3.
  • the air duct 8 is connected with a first duct part 9 to the first section 5 of the suction air duct 4 and its second duct part 11 communicates with the environment via an opening 12 in the housing 3 .
