Description

APPARATUS AND A METHOD
FOR WEAVING LENO FABRIC
This invention relates to a method and an apparatus for weaving leno fabric on a loom and also a leno mechanism for incorporation into a heald frame loom to enable the loom to weave leno fabric.
A woven leno fabnc is a well known type of open weave having the construction shown in Figure 1.
A general aim of the invention is to allow the production of a leno fabric using a minimum number of moving parts and a minimum number of wear surfaces so that such a fabric can be woven reliably at high speed.
According to a first aspect of the invention there is provided an apparatus, for weaving leno fabric on a loom, including: a support having pivot means which enable the support to he pivotally mounted on the loom for reciprocal pivotal rotation about a pivot axis, the support carrying a plurality of ground thread blades arranged side by side in a row and spaced apart along the row to define inbetween neighbouring ground thread blades a guide space for a ground thread running along a predetermined pathway, a leno guide blade being located in each guide space to divide the guide space into first and second guide slots, each leno guide blade having at its terminal end a leno guide eye through which a leno thread is to be guided, adjacent ground thread blades projecting beyond the terminal end of the leno guide blade located therebetween to define a ground thread cross-over space, the ground thread and leno guide blades being arranged to extend from said pivotal axis as defined by the pivot means such that pivotal movement of the support in a first rotary direction causes the ground threads to move relatively along one of the first or second guide slots towards and into the cross-over spaces and thereby permit the ground threads to be moved laterally relative to the leno guide blades from one side to the other thereof, and such that pivotal movement of the support in a second rotary direction opposite to the said first rotary direction causes the ground threads to move relative to the ground thread blades out of the cross-over spaces and relatively along the other of the first or second guide slots away from the cross-over spaces.
The foregoing arrangement allows for the relative movement of the ground threads to come about by pivotal movement, thereby utilising a minimum number of moving parts and a minimum number of wear surfaces.
Preferably the apparatus further includes a ground thread deflection means operable on the ground threads for causing each ground thread to be moved laterally to one side or the other of a respective leno guide blade.
Optionally the ground thread deflection means comprises a reciprocating bar having a plurality of guide eyes for guiding respective ground threads, the reciprocating bar being movable between first and second positions so as to cause the said lateral movement of the ground threads relative to the leno guide blades.
The foregoing arrangements provide a convenient way of moving the ground threads relative to the leno guide blades such that the threads are able to cross-over one another to define a desired leno fabric construction.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention each ground thread blade is sufficiently flexible to enable a ground thread to cause it to be deflected laterally relative to a neighbouring leno guide blade. This provides for positive locating of the ground threads within respective guide spaces, thereby maintaining a desired degree of control over the said ground threads.
Preferably the neighbouring ground thread blades include a retaining means connected between the terminal ends thereof in order to prevent ground threads moving beyond the terminal ends of the ground thread blades and out of said cross-over spaces. Such an arrangement provides for further control of the ground threads.
Optionally the retaining means comprises an elongate member which extends across and is connected to the terminal ends of the row of ground thread blades.
This is a convenient way of achieving the desired retention of the ground threads.
In a further preferred embodiment of the invention the terminal ends of the leno guide blades and the ground thread blades lie in different radial planes. Such an arrangement reduces the range of pivotal movement of the support required to move the ground threads relatively into and out of the cross-over spaces.
According to a second aspect of the invention there is provided a leno mechanism, for incorporation into a heald frame loom to enable the heald frame loom to weave leno fabric, including: a support having pivot means which enable the support to be pivotally mounted on the heald frame loom for reciprocal pivotal rotation about a pivot axis, the support carrying a plurality of ground thread blades arranged side by side in a row and spaced apart along the row to define inbetween neighbouring ground thread blades a guide space for a ground thread running along a predetermined pathway, a leno guide blade being located in each guide space to divide the guide space into first and second guide slots, each leno guide blade having at its terminal end a leno guide eye through which a leno thread is to be guided, adjacent ground thread blades projecting beyond the terminal end of the leno guide blade located therebetween to define a ground thread cross-over space, the ground thread and leno guide blades being arranged to extend from said pivotal axis as defined by the pivot means such that pivotal movement of the support in a first rotary direction causes the ground threads to move relatively along one of the first or second guide slots towards and into the cross-over spaces and thereby permit the ground threads to be moved laterally relative to the leno guide blades from one side to thc other thereof and such that pivotal movement of the support in a second rotary direction opposite to the said first rotary direction causes the ground threads to move relative to the ground thread blades out of the cross-over spaces and relatively along the other of the first or second guide slots away from the cross-over spaces.
Preferably the leno mechanism further includes a ground thread deflection means operable on the ground threads for causing each ground thread to be moved laterally to one side or the other of a respective leno guide blade.
The foregoing features share the advantages of the corresponding apparatus features mentioned hereinabove.
Optionally the support is adapted to be driven by a heald frame drive.
In a further embodiment of the invention the ground thread deflection means is adapted to he driven by a rotating driveshaft of the heald frame loom.
The foregoing features allow for the convenient use of the leno mechanism with a heald frame loom following a minimum of modification thereto.
According to a third aspect of the invention there is provided a method of weaving leno fabric on a loom comprising the steps of: (i) arranging a row of side by side ground thread blades to define a plurality of guide spaces, each guide space being for a respective ground thread running along a predetermined pathway; (ii) arranging a respective leno guide blade within each guide space to define first and second guide slots and a cross-over space therein; (iii) guiding each leno thread with a respective leno guide blade; (iv) moving the ground threads relatively along one of the first or second guide slots towards and into the cross-over spaces by pivotally moving the support in a first rotary direction; (v) moving the ground threads laterally relative to the leno guide blades from one side to the other thereof and (vi) moving the ground threads out of the cross-over spaces and relatively along the other of the first or second guide slots away from the cross- over spaces by pivotally moving the support in a second rotary direction opposite to the said first rotary direction.
This allows for the weaving of leno fabnc while utilising a mimmum number of moving parts and a minimum number of wear surfaces.
Preferably step (v) includes guiding each ground thread via a ground thread deflection means.
Optionally, guiding each ground thread via a ground thread deflection means includes guiding each ground thread via a guide eye within a reciprocating bar.
The foregoing steps allow the ground threads and leno threads to crossover one another to define a desired leno fabric construction.
In another preferred embodiment of the invention step (v) further includes deflecting each ground thread laterally relative to a respective leno guide blade so as to cause it to abut and deflect a neighbouring ground thread blade.
Conveniently the method further comprises the step of retaining each ground thread within each guide space.
The foregoing steps provide for a desired retention of the ground threads within the guide spaces.
There now follows a brief description of a preferred embodiment of the invention, by way of non-limiting example, with reference being made to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 shows the leno fabric construction; Figures 2 and 3 are elevational views from one end of an apparatus according to a first embodiment of the invention shown in weft insertion and beat- up positions of the loom, respectively; Figure 4 is a part perspective view of the mechanism shown in Figure 2; Figures 5 and 6 are front elevational views of ground thread blades and leno guide blades of the apparatus shown in Figure 2; and Figure 7 shows a leno mechanism according to a second embodiment of the invention.
The woven leno fabric LF comprises of weft 10, ground threads 12 and leno threads 13 locked together, as shown in Figure 1.
An apparatus for weaving leno fabnc on a loom is designated generally by the reference numeral 14. In the embodiment shown the loom is a projection loom 16 which, as is well known in the art, includes a plurality of guides 1 8 to guide the projectiles (not shown) which insert the wefl 10. The guides 18 are mounted on a reed assembly 20 which includes a reed 22.
The weaving apparatus 14 includes a support in the form of a bar 24 which is pivotally mounted to the loom 16 via a plurality of brackets 26 spaced thereacross.
The brackets 26 define a pivot axis 23 about which the bar 24 is pivotally
rotatable.
The bar 24 carries a plurality of ground thread blades 28 extending therefrom and arranged side by side in a row, as shown in Figure 4.
The ground thread blades 28 are spaced apart along the row to define inbetween neighbouring ground thread blades 28 a guide space 30 for a ground thread running along a predetermined pathway from a rear 32 of the loom 16, as shown in Figures 5 and 6.
A leno guide blade 34 is located in each guide space 30 to divide the guide space into first and second guide slots 36, 38.
Each leno guide blade 34 includes a leno guide eye 40, at a terminal end 42 thereof for guiding a respective leno thread 13.
Adiacent ground thread blades 28 project beyond the terminal end 42 of the leno guide blade 34 to define a ground thread cross-over space 44.
The weaving apparatus 14 also includes a ground thread deflection means in the form of a reciprocating bar 46. The reciprocating bar 46 includes a plurality of guide eyes 48 for guiding respective ground threads. Preferably the guide eyes 48 are in the form of slots. The reciprocating bar 46 is moveable between first and second positions so as to cause lateral movement of the ground threads 12 relative to the leno guide blades 34. I 0
A chain drive assembly 50 for driving the reciprocating bar 46 includes a small sprocket wheel (not shown), a large sprocket wheel 52 connected to the small sprocket wheel via a chain 54, and a crank rod 56 connected between the large sprocket wheel 52 and the reciprocating bar 46.
IS
In addition, in the embodiment shown, neighbouring ground thread blades 28 include a retaining means in the form of a wire 58 connected between terminal ends 60 thereof. The wire 58 prevents ground threads 12 from moving beyond the terminal ends 60 of the ground thread blades 28 and out of the cross-over spaces 44.
Furthermore, the weaving apparatus 14 of the embodiment shown includes first and second guide bars 62, 64. Optionally the weaving apparatus 14 may also include a third guide bar 66.
The leno threads 13 are arranged to pass under the first guide bar 62 and then over the second guide bar 64 as they pass from a rear 32 of the loom 16 to a front thereof Such an arrangement helps to maintain a substantially constant tension in the leno threads 13 during operation of the apparatus 14.
The ground threads 12 are arranged to pass over the first guide 10. Optionally the ground threads may also pass under the third guide 66.
The first embodiment weaving apparatus 14 also includes a first drive assembly 68 having a connecting rod 70 interconnected between the brackets 26 and a pivot arm 72 of the reed assemb]y 20.
S During weaving the first drive assembly 68 pivotally rotates the bar 24 about the pivot axis 23 in a first direction as well as moving the reed assembly 20 in a first direction towards a beat-up position whereat the reed 22 has pushed the wefi (not shown) forward into the leno fabric LF, as shown in Figure 3.
Pivotal movement of the bar 24 in the first, rotary direction causes the ground threads 12 to move relatively along one of the first or second guide slots 36, 38 towards and into the cross-over spaces 44.
This permits the reciprocating bar 46 to move of the ground threads 12 laterally relative to the leno guide blades 34 from a one side to the other thereof In this way the ground threads 1 2 and leno threads 13 cross over one another. The ground thread blades 28 are flexible and so the ground threads 12 cause them to deflect laterally relative to a neighbouring leno guide blade 34, thereby positively retaining each ground thread 12 within a respective guide space 30.
Subsequent pivotal movement of the bar 24 in a second, rotary direction opposite the first rotary direction causes the ground threads 12 to move relative to the ground thread blades 28 out of the cross-over spaces 44 and relatively along the other of the first and second guide slots 36, 38 away from the cross-over spaces 44.
While moving the bar 24 in the second rotary direction, the first drive assembly 68 moves the reed assembly 20 towards a wefi insertion position whereat the ground and leno threads 12, 13 form an open shed for wefi 10 insertion, as shown in Figure 2.
in this way the ground threads 12 and leno threads 13 are wrapped about one another inbetween wefi insertions so as to create the leno fabric LF of Figure 1.
A leno mechanism, for incorporation into a heald frame loom 78 is designated generally by the reference numeral 80.
The leno mechanism 80 shares common features with the weaving apparatus described hereinabove. These common features share the same reference numerals.
The leno mechanism 80 includes a second drive assembly 82 which includes a plurality of arms 84 each of which is connected to a respective bracket 26. Second connecting rods 86 interconnect the arms 84 with push rods 88 which form part of the frame drive of the heald frame loom 78. This arrangement obviates the need for heald frames thereby allowing the existing frame drive to dnve the bar 24 of the leno mechanism 80.
Operation of the leno mechanism 80 is otherwise identical to that of the weaving apparatus 14 descnbed above.
