JP-A-3-124851 ([0024] to [0027])

  A loom that weaves air bags, towels, etc. treats towels made of unit pattern as one woven fabric, weaves unit pattern repeatedly, cuts the woven fabric every time the set number is reached, and removes it from the loom. In other words, so-called cut-off weaving is generally performed, and in cut-off weaving, weaving is generally stopped every time the set number of sheets is reached. When the unit pattern pattern is repeatedly woven as a single woven cloth in this way, a unit pattern pattern different from the main weaving is provided in the middle of the main weaving of a set number of towels or the like for the convenience of the operator. Intermittent weaving (trial weaving) may be caused by a loom.

  When towels and the like are woven with the above-described conventional weaving amount measuring device, the counter continues measuring not only when weaving but also when weaving interrupted. The amount of main weaving cannot be grasped when returning to main weaving after weaving.

  To avoid this, make a note of the amount of main weaving so far at the start of interrupt weaving, and then the operator can manually reset the instrument to zero or continue measuring without resetting. It can be considered to return the measured value of the measuring instrument to the value in the middle of the memo after the interrupt weaving.

  However, a series of operations requiring memos is a burden on the operator. In consideration of the possibility of human error such as forgetting the memo of the operator, the interrupt weaving amount and the main weaving amount that can be grasped by the measuring instrument are low in reliability.

  The present invention was created in consideration of the above circumstances, and the problem to be solved is to make it possible to reliably grasp the amount of interrupt weaving and the amount of main weaving even if interrupt weaving is performed during the main weaving. .

  The present invention relates to a weaving amount of a loom including a first measuring instrument for measuring the number of repetitions of unit pattern pattern weaving treated as a single woven cloth, and a first indicator for displaying the measured value of the measuring instrument. Assume measurement equipment.

  The invention of claim 1 is a second measuring device that is a measuring device different from the first measuring device and that measures the number of repetitions of unit pattern pattern weaving, and the second measuring device displays the measured value of the measuring device. The display is provided with a manual start switch for starting the measurement of the number of repetitions of unit pattern pattern weaving on the second measuring instrument, and an output device for stopping the measurement of the second measuring instrument. The stop switch and any one of an automatic output device for stopping the measurement of the second measuring instrument when the measured value of the second measuring instrument reaches the set number, the first measuring instrument is at least the second It is characterized in that the measurement is executed except during the measurement by the measuring instrument.

  Further, as a subordinate concept of claim 1, as in the invention of claim 2, the first measuring instrument may execute measurement even during measurement by the second measuring instrument.

  Further, as a subordinate concept of claim 2, as in the invention of claim 3, when the measured value of the first measuring instrument reaches the set number, the loom stop signal is output and the measurement of the first measuring instrument is performed. The correction value may be calculated by automatically subtracting the measurement value of the second measuring instrument from the value or the set number, and the correction value may be displayed on the first display.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the start switch outputs a signal for starting the measurement of the second measuring instrument, and stops the measurement of the first measuring instrument with the output, while the output The instrument may be constituted by the manual stop switch, and may output a signal for stopping the measurement of the second measuring instrument and start the measurement of the first measuring instrument in accordance with the output.

  Furthermore, when changing the loom from a specific unit pattern pattern weaving to another unit pattern pattern weaving or returning to a specific unit pattern pattern weaving, when weaving the loom stops, weaving ends in the middle of the unit pattern pattern In order to avoid waste of the woven fabric, as in the invention of claim 5, a manual boundary stop switch is provided, and by operating the switch, one rotation of the loom spindle is taken as one step, and in unit pattern pattern weaving. It is desirable that the loom is stopped at the terminal portion of the unit pattern pattern weaving based on the step progress and the number of steps forming the unit pattern pattern weaving.

  Further, when measuring the number of repetitions of the unit pattern, as in the invention of claim 6, the first measuring instrument and the second measuring instrument are woven unit pattern patterns with one rotation of the loom spindle as one step. And measuring the number of unit pattern pattern weaving repetitions based on a signal input at a predetermined step progression. A signal input at a predetermined step progress is a signal input at every predetermined step progress, for example, a signal input at a first step, a predetermined step in the middle, or a signal input at the last step. It may be a special signal different from the input signal, or may be a signal input for each step based on the main shaft rotation angle signal of the loom. In that case, based on the information of the number of steps forming the unit pattern pattern weaving, the step progress is grasped from the signal input for each step, and one of the signals input for each step is input with a predetermined step progress. As a signal, it is determined that the first step in unit pattern pattern weaving, a predetermined step in the middle or the last step has been reached, and one unit pattern pattern weaving, that is, one sheet of woven fabric is determined.

  The weaving amount measuring device of the present invention includes a first measuring instrument, a first indicator, a second measuring instrument, a second indicator, a start switch, and an output device. Therefore, while measuring the weaving amount using the first measuring instrument and the first indicator, the specific unit pattern pattern weaving is repeated as the main weaving, and during the weaving, as the interrupting weaving, for example, the main weaving and When weaving different unit pattern patterns repeatedly, the operator can handle interrupted weaving without taking note of the weaving amount. That is, using the second measuring instrument, the second indicator, the start switch, and the output device, the measurement of the weaving amount of the interrupting weaving is started and stopped, thereby measuring the weaving amount of the interrupting weaving. It becomes possible. In addition, since the first measuring instrument performs measurement at least other than during measurement by the second measuring instrument, the weaving amount of the main weaving is continued after the interrupting weaving, reflecting the weaving amount before the interrupting weaving. Can be measured.

  The invention of claim 2 uses the first measuring instrument by subtracting the measured value of the second measuring instrument because the first measuring instrument performs the measurement even when measuring by the second measuring instrument. Weaving, that is, weaving amount of main weaving can be grasped.

  In the invention of claim 3, in the invention of claim 2, as the main weaving ends, the weaving amount of the interrupting weaving is automatically subtracted and displayed on the first display, so that the operator calculates We can grasp the weaving amount of the main weaving without any problem.

  The invention of claim 4 has an additional function of stopping the measurement of the first measuring instrument in addition to the essential function of the start switch starting the measurement of the second measuring instrument. In addition to the essential function of stopping the measurement of the second measuring instrument, the stop switch also has an incidental function of starting the measurement of the first measuring instrument. It is possible to avoid the fact that weaving using the first measuring instrument, that is, the weaving amount of the main weaving, cannot be grasped due to human error such as forgetting the operation.

  According to the fifth aspect of the invention, since the loom is always stopped at the end portion of the unit pattern pattern regardless of the operation time of the boundary stop switch, the waste of the woven fabric can be eliminated and the production efficiency can be improved.

  According to the sixth aspect of the invention, since the number of repetitions of the unit pattern is measured based on a signal input at a predetermined step progress in unit pattern pattern weaving, the amount of weaving can be reliably measured. That is, since the signal is input every time the unit pattern pattern is woven, it is possible to accurately measure the weaving amount without particularly measuring the weaving length.

  FIG. 1 is a control block diagram of a weaving amount measuring device 21 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a towel loom equipped with a terry motion device 5 of a weaving cloth movement type as a loom, for each predetermined weaving amount. This is applied to so-called wholesale weaving in which the woven fabric is removed from the loom. FIG. 2 shows the towel loom baskets 2 and 3, a part of the terry motion device 5 that moves the woven fabric, and the winding device. FIGS. 3 to 5 are flowcharts showing the control of the weaving amount measuring device 21, and after the interrupting weaving is executed during the main weaving, the operation procedure until returning to the main weaving and stopping the weaving machine for cutting off is shown. This partly represents switch operations, weaving condition change work, counter setting work, and chase work by an operator.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the towel loom equipped with the terry motion device 5 that moves the woven fabric is configured to remove the warp 1 from the warp beam of the pile warp (not shown) and the warp beam of the ground warp arranged on the upstream side of the warp path, respectively. The warp yarn 1 is guided to the front of the woven fabric 4 via the heel 2 and the heel 3. A warp 1 (not shown) is beaten, and the warp 1 and the weft become a woven cloth 4. The woven cloth 4 includes a terry motion device 5, an apparel roll 6, and a plurality of winding rolls 6 arranged sequentially along the woven cloth path on the downstream side before weaving. Is wound around the fabric winding roll 8 via the press roll 7.

  One towel 9, that is, a towel 9 including one unit pattern, more precisely, a towel 9 woven by weaving one unit pattern, is usually woven by the operation of the terry motion device 5. And a border structure in which the terry motion device 5 is woven in an inoperative state. The border structure is usually disposed at both ends of the pile structure, but is disposed between the pile structures in addition to the both ends. There is also a case. Depending on the unit pattern, one towel 9 may be formed only of a pile structure and may not include a border structure. Weaving of the towel 9 is performed by repeating the weaving based on the unit pattern pattern with the towel 9 made by weaving the unit pattern pattern being one unit weaving amount, that is, one towel, and the towel 9 having a predetermined weaving amount (the number of weaving) is obtained. Produced.

  For the weaving of the towel 9, so-called wholesale weaving is generally performed in which the woven fabric 4 is cut every predetermined amount, that is, every predetermined number of sheets, and removed from the loom. In the cut-off weaving of the present embodiment, the cut-off end 11 is woven following the end portion 42 of the woven fabric 4 corresponding to the weaving of a predetermined weaving amount, so that the cutting operation is facilitated. The cut-off end 11 is woven based on the cut-off end pattern, and is formed by a border structure or a structure dedicated to the cut-off end different from the border structure, and the terry motion device 5 is woven in an inoperative state. Does not include organizations. In the cut-off weaving of this embodiment, the cut-off end weaving based on the cut-off end pattern is started after the end portion 42 of the woven fabric 4 is woven by reaching a predetermined weaving amount. , More precisely, the cut end 11 is woven over the step of forming the cut end pattern with one rotation of the loom main shaft 17 as one step, and the cut end 11 is adjacent to the end portion 42. Is woven for a predetermined length.

  After the weaving of the cut-off end 11, weaving based on the unit pattern pattern, that is, weaving of the woven fabric 4 that will be the next cut-off is executed, and after weaving from the start of weaving of the unit pattern pattern to a predetermined step, this embodiment Then, the loom is automatically stopped. Thereby, the woven fabric 4 based on the unit pattern is woven for a predetermined length, and the loom is automatically stopped during the weaving of the first or plural towels 9. FIG. 2 shows that after the weaving amount reaches the set amount, the cut-off end 11 is woven, and after the cut-off end 11, the woven cloth 4 of the unit pattern pattern to be next cut off is woven by a predetermined step. Shows the state where the loom is automatically stopped. After weaving the cut-off end 11, the unit pattern pattern woven fabric 4 is woven by a predetermined step, so that the cut-off end 11 is positioned on the downstream side of the clothing roll 6. The woven fabric 4 is gripped by the clothing roll 6 and the press roll 7 on the upstream side from the cut-off end 11, and can be cut at the cut-off end 11 and is prevented from being loosened by cutting. In the present embodiment, the number of steps is set so that the loom is automatically stopped in a state where the cut-off end 11 reaches between the downstream press roll 7 and the fabric winding roll 8. Workability is improved.

  The weaving cloth type terry motion device 5 moves the woven cloth 4 in the warp direction at the time of weaving the pile structure to displace the position before weaving, and the position before weaving advances toward the heel 3. At the time of the first pick, the pile warp is loosened in a loop shape with the beating and a pile is formed. The terry motion device 5 of the woven cloth movement type shown in FIG. 2 includes a drive device (not shown), a pair of left and right swing levers 12 having a lower end portion as a fulcrum, an intermediate portion connected to the drive device, and one end swings. It includes an interlocking lever 13 connected to an intermediate portion of the lever 12 and a terry roll 14 that is fixed at both ends to the upper end portions of the pair of left and right swing levers 12 and is spanned in the weaving width direction. The other end of the interlocking lever 13 is connected to a swinging lever (not shown) that supports a tension roll (not shown) of the ground warp yarn, and the terry roll 14 and the tension roll are interlocked with each other via the interlocking lever 13 by the driving device. That is, it is driven in the warp direction. Thereby, the woven fabric 4 wound around the terry roll 14 moves in the warp direction together with the terry roll 14. At that time, since the tension roll moves in the same direction as the terry roll 14, the change in the warp path length accompanying the movement of the woven fabric 4 is absorbed. ) Is not caused by the decrease in the ground warp tension, and no excessive tension is applied even if it is moved to the front side (winding side). Displaces reliably in the warp direction.

  Next, the control for executing the weaving amount measuring operation of the weaving amount measuring device 21 will be described based on the control block diagram of the towel loom of FIG. The loom drives a motor 16 according to a command from the loom control device 15, and the motor 16 rotates the loom main shaft 17. The encoder 18 connected to the loom main shaft 17 detects the main shaft rotation angle and outputs the main shaft rotation angle information to the loom control device 15 and the measurement control device 19 of the weaving amount measurement device 21.

  The loom control device 15 receives signals from the encoder 18, the pattern pattern setting device 20, and the measurement control device 19 as well as signals from an opening pattern setting device, a weft insertion pattern setting device, a terry motion pattern setting device, etc. (not shown). Entered. Further, the loom control device 15 drives various devices such as the terry motion device 5 using these input signals.

  The pattern pattern setting unit 20 sets a unit pattern pattern and a cut-off end pattern in the loom control device 15. The loom control device 15 determines that the current step is the last in the pattern based on the current step progress information in the pattern based on the spindle rotation angle information and the information on the number of steps constituting the pattern set by the pattern pattern setting unit 20. The end signal is output to the measurement control device 19 of the weaving amount measuring device 21 for each last step of the unit pattern and the cut-off end pattern.

  The weaving amount measuring device 21 includes, as a measuring instrument and a display 34, a first measuring instrument, a first display, a second measuring instrument, in addition to the total counter 22 and the total counter display unit 34a of the display 34. A second display is provided, and each is connected to the measurement control device 19.

  The total counter display part 34a of the total counter 22 and the indicator 34 measures and displays the cumulative number of weaving of the main weaving when the main weaving is continuously woven over a plurality of cut-off weaving. The cumulative number of weaving up to the present time of the main weaving or the interrupting weaving in the current cut-off weaving is added to measure and display the cumulative number of weaving up to the present time.

  The first measuring instrument and the first indicator are composed of the first counter 23 and the first counter display part 34b of the indicator 34, and the current weaving in the current weaving weaving or the interrupting weaving. Is added to measure and display the number of weaving sheets up to the present time. The operator sets, in the measurement control device 19, the number of weaving sheets that the loom is automatically stopped by one cut-off weaving through the automatic stop number setting unit 32 of the first counter. ,

  The second measuring instrument and the second indicator are constituted by the second counter 24 and the second counter display part 34c of the indicator 34, and the number of pieces of the interrupted weaving up to the present time in the current cut-off weaving. Is measured and displayed.

  The measurement control device 19 is a main element of the weaving amount measurement device 21 of the first embodiment. The measurement control device 19 is connected to various devices, devices, and the like, and exchanges signals with them to thereby generate a specific unit pattern pattern. Weaving, that is, the number of weaving of main weaving, and the weaving of unit pattern pattern different from the main weaving temporarily interrupted by weaving, that is, the number of weaving of interrupting weaving, is measured by a measuring instrument, respectively. 34 is displayed.

  As a preparation before weaving machine operation, when weaving a specific unit pattern pattern, that is, weaving the main weaving over several times, usually the total counter of the total weaving of the main weaving is automatically stopped. After registration in the measurement control device 19 using the number setting device 43, the total counter automatic stop setting switch 44 is operated to set in the measurement control device 19 so as to operate with the registered total weaving number. As a result, in the cut-off weaving over a plurality of times, when the cumulative number of weaving of the main weaving reaches the set total weaving number, the measurement control device 19 outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15 to automatically stop the loom. To do. Thereafter, before restarting the operation of the loom, the operator operates the total counter reset switch 25 to reset the total counter 22 to zero.

  When an operation start switch (not shown) connected to the loom control device 15 is operated by an operator and an operation start signal is output, the loom control device 15 drives the motor 16 and the encoder 18 connected to the loom main shaft 17 The spindle rotation angle is detected, and the spindle rotation angle information is output to the loom control device 15 and the measurement control device 19. At the same time, an operation start signal is input to the measurement control device 19 via the loom control device 15, and the measurement control device 19 outputs a reset signal to the first counter 23 and the second counter 24 based on the operation start signal. The counts 23 and 24 are reset to zero. The output history of the reset signal (reset history) is stored in the measurement control device 19 until the current cut-off weaving is completed, and after the measured value of the first counter 23 reaches the set weaving amount, It is deleted as the loom is automatically stopped. Therefore, for example, when the loom is restarted after the loom is automatically stopped by detecting yarn breakage or the loom is stopped by an operator's operation, the measurement control device 19 automatically sets the first counter 23 and the second counter 24. Resetting is not performed based on the stored reset history.

  During the operation of the loom, the loom control device 15 outputs a unit pattern pattern end signal to the measurement control device 19 for each last step of the unit pattern pattern based on the spindle rotation angle information. Each time the end signal of the unit pattern pattern is input via the measurement control device 19, the total counter 22 and the first counter 23 each add 1 to the accumulated value held by using the end signal as a count signal. In addition, the integrated value, that is, the count is output to the measurement control device 19 as a measured value. The measurement control device 19 displays the measurement values of the total counter 22 and the first counter 23 on the total counter display unit 34a and the first counter display unit 34b of the display 34, respectively. When the measurement value of the first counter 23 reaches the set value set via the automatic stop number setting unit 32 of the first counter, the measurement control device 19 performs a checkout connected to the terminal portion 42 of the woven fabric 4. A command to start weaving at the end 11 is output to the loom control device 15.

  Weaving of the cut-off end 11 is performed in the order of the set steps, and at the last step of the cut-off end pattern, a weaving end control signal is output from the loom control device 15 to the measurement control device 19, and weaving of the cut-off end 11 is performed. Ends. Further, a stop step number setting device 35 and a step counter 36 are connected to the measurement control device 19. The stop step number setting unit 35 sets the number of unit pattern pattern weaving steps (the number of steps where one rotation of the loom main shaft 17 is one step) executed after the weaving of the checkout end 11 is completed. When the cut-off end signal is input, the measurement control device 19 outputs a reset signal to the step counter 36 and resets the integrated value (measured value) of the step counter 36. The measurement control device 19 grasps one rotation (one step of weaving) of the loom main shaft 17 based on the main shaft rotation angle information from the encoder 18 and outputs a pulse signal as a count up signal to the step counter 36 for each step. To do. The step counter 36 integrates the number of weaving steps based on the count up signal, and outputs the integrated value to the measurement control device 19 as the number of measurement steps. When the number of measurement steps input from the step counter 36 reaches the number of steps set by the stop step number setting unit 35, the measurement control device 19 outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15, and the loom Stop when the wholesale end 11 reaches the cut-off position on the fabric path.

  An operator cuts the woven cloth 4 at the cut-off end 11 portion and performs a cut-off work for exchanging with a new cloth winding roll 8. Furthermore, the measurement control device 19 performs an operation of subtracting the measurement value n of the second counter 24 from the measurement values M and N of the total counter 22 and the first counter 23 using the calculator 31, The measurement values M and N of the first counter 23 are corrected. The total counter display unit 34a and the first counter display unit 34b of the display 34 indicate the corrected measured values based on the cumulative weaving number M-n of the main weaving at the end of the wholesale weaving and the current time at the end of the wholesale weaving. It is displayed as the number N-n of the main weaving in the cut-off weaving. When the interrupting weaving is not performed, 0 is subtracted as the measurement value n of the second counter 24 and is not substantially corrected. The measurement control device 19 erases the stored reset history of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24 simultaneously with the correction of the measurement value.

  Next, the case where the main weaving is interrupted and the interrupting weaving is performed will be described. When weaving a unit pattern different from the unit pattern pattern of main weaving (interrupt weaving) during main weaving, when the operator operates the boundary stop switch 29, a boundary stop signal is output to the measurement control device 19. The After the operation of the boundary stop switch 29, when the end signal of the unit pattern pattern is input from the loom control device 15, the measurement control device 19 outputs the loom stop signal to the loom control device 15, and based on the woven fabric boundary stop signal. The loom is automatically stopped in a state where the weaving of one woven fabric 4 is completed. It should be noted that the unit pattern pattern is not limited to one that stops the loom at the end portion in the unit pattern pattern weaving when the boundary stop switch 29 is operated, but one or more unit pattern patterns after a predetermined number of sheets from the time when the boundary stop switch 29 is operated. The loom may be stopped at the end portion in weaving.

  After the loom stops, the operator changes the weaving conditions such as operating the pattern pattern setting device 20 to set a desired unit pattern. Further, after registering the desired number of weaving of interrupt weaving in the measurement control device 19 via the second counter automatic stop number setting unit 33, by operating the second counter automatic stop setting switch 28, It is set so that the loom is automatically stopped when the interrupting weaving reaches the desired number of weaving.

  Further, a second counter operation switch 27 is provided as a manual start switch for causing the second measuring instrument to measure the number of repetitions of unit pattern pattern weaving. When the operator operates the switch 27, the switch 27 Is input to the measurement control device 19. If it does so, the measurement control apparatus 19 will switch from the state which interrupted the input to the 2nd counter 24 of a count signal to the state which accept | permits the input to the 2nd counter 24, and will hold | maintain the state. By this switching, the measurement control device 19 outputs the end signal of the unit pattern pattern from the loom control device 15 as a count signal to the second counter 24 in addition to the total counter 22 and the first counter 23. Thus, it is possible to cause the second counter 24 to measure a counting signal (the number of repetitions of unit pattern pattern weaving).

  When the operator operates the operation start switch, interrupting weaving is started. At that time, the first counter 23 is continuously accumulated without resetting the measurement value based on the stored reset history. The total counter 22, the first counter 23, and the second counter 24 are held each time a unit pattern pattern end signal from the loom control device 15 is input as a count signal via the measurement control device 19. 1 is added to each accumulated value, and the accumulated value is output to the measurement control device 19 as a measured value. The measurement control device 19 displays the measured values of the total counter 22, the first counter 23, and the second counter 24, and displays the total counter display unit 34 a, the first counter display unit 34 b, and the second counter display unit of the display 34. 34c respectively. When the measured value of the second counter 24 reaches the set value set by the second counter automatic stop number setting device 33 and the second counter automatic stop setting switch 28, the measurement control device 19 A stop signal is output to the loom control device 15. As a result, the loom is stopped in a state where one woven fabric 4 has been completed, not during weaving, and the interrupted weaving of the desired number of woven fabrics 4 has been completed. Note that interrupt weaving is mainly treated as a trial weaving, and when the weaving amount sufficient for examining the trial weaving results is reached, it may be desired to terminate the interrupting weaving before reaching the set number of weaving. In that case, the operator may operate the loom stop switch to stop the loom in the middle of weaving one woven cloth 4, but by operating the boundary stop switch 29 in the same manner as in the main weaving, The loom may be automatically stopped in a state where the weaving of the sheet of woven fabric 4 is completed.

  When the interrupting weaving is completed and the loom is stopped, the operator returns the weaving conditions to the main weaving conditions such as setting the unit pattern pattern of the main weaving by operating the pattern pattern setting unit 20. Further, when the operator operates the second counter operation switch 27 when the loom stops after interrupting weaving, an input cutoff signal is output from the switch 27 to the measurement control device 19, and the measurement control device 19 The state where the input to the second counter 24 is permitted is switched to the state where the input to the second counter 24 is blocked, and this state is maintained. By this switching, the measurement control device 19 outputs the end signal of the unit pattern pattern from the loom control device 15 as a count signal only to the total counter 22 and the first counter 23, and stops the measurement of the second counter 24. Let In the present embodiment, the second counter operation switch 27 is provided as a manual start switch of the present invention as described above, and thus stops the measurement of the second measuring instrument of the present invention. It is also provided as a manual stop switch constituting the output device.

  When the operation start switch is operated and the main weaving is resumed, the measurement value is continuously accumulated in the first counter 23 together with the total counter 22 by the end signal of the unit pattern pattern. When the measured value of the first counter 23 reaches the set value set via the automatic stop number setting unit 32 of the first counter, the cut end weaving is started as described above, and the cut end end weaving is started. Then, after the main weaving is woven for a predetermined number of steps, the loom is automatically stopped and the loom control device 15 erases the reset history of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24. At that time, as described above, the measurement control device 19 corrects the measurement values M and N of the total counter 22 and the first counter 23, and calculates the total counter display unit 34a and the first counter display unit of the display 34. 34b displays the corrected measured values as the cumulative weaving number Mn of the main weaving at the end of the cut-off weaving and the weaving number Nn of the main weaving at the current cut-off weaving at the end of the cut-off weaving. .

  The cut-off weaving of the main weaving of the same unit pattern pattern is performed a plurality of times, and the cumulative weaving number M-n of the main weaving is set to the automatic counter number setting unit 43 of the total counter and the total counter automatic stop setting switch 44. When the total number of weaving sheets set via S is reached, the measurement control device 19 outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15, and the loom is stopped without carrying out the cut-off end weaving. The operator changes to the weaving conditions for main weaving of another unit pattern pattern, and the desired total weaving number of main weaving is set via the total counter automatic stop number setting unit 43 and the total counter automatic stop setting switch 44. Then, after the total counter reset switch 25 and the second counter reset switch 26 are operated and the total counter 22 and the second counter 24 are reset, the loom operation is resumed. The measured value of the first counter 23 is accumulated without being reset, and when the predetermined set number of sheets is reached, the cut-off end weaving is performed, and the unit pattern pattern weaving is executed by a predetermined amount following the cut-off end weaving. When the cut-off end 11 reaches a predetermined cut-off position on the woven cloth path, the loom is automatically stopped and the woven cloth 4 is cut off from the loom. Accordingly, the fabric winding roll 8 is wound up and cut off in a state where a plurality of main weaving fabrics having different unit pattern patterns are connected without being cut at the boundary.

  In this embodiment, when the cumulative weaving number M-n of main weaving reaches the total weaving number set via the total counter automatic stop number setting unit 43 and the total counter automatic stop setting switch 44, the cut-off edge weaving is performed. The loom is automatically stopped without carrying out the operation, but the measurement value of the total counter 22 is not used for the automatic stop operation of the loom, but simply for measuring the cumulative number of weaving of the main weaving over a plurality of cut-off weaving. It may be only. In this case, the loom is automatically stopped when the predetermined counterweaving number of sheets set by the automatic stop number setting unit 32 of the first counter is reached or when the end end weaving is finished. It is preferable that the unit pattern pattern weaving is not carried out before the loom is automatically stopped. In this way, even if the next weaving weaving is changed to the main weaving with a different unit pattern pattern, the first or plural pieces of the woven cloth 4 of the unit pattern pattern before the change may be stopped during the process. And weaving loss is avoided.

  In the present embodiment, the second counter operation switch 27 constitutes a manual stop switch that constitutes an output device that stops the measurement of the second measuring instrument, and an output device that stops the measurement of the second measuring instrument. It also serves as a manual stop switch. However, the second counter operation switch 27 is used as a manual stop switch constituting an output device for stopping the measurement of the second measuring instrument, and the second counter automatic stop number setting unit 33 and the second counter automatic switching The stop setting switch 28 may be used as an automatic output device that stops the measurement of the second measuring instrument when the measured value of the second measuring instrument reaches the set number. That is, when the measurement value of the second counter 24 reaches the set value set by the second counter automatic stop number setting unit 33 and the second counter automatic stop setting switch 28, the measurement control device 19 In addition to outputting the loom stop signal to the loom control device 15, the state in which the input of the count signal made by the operation of the second counter operation switch 27 to the second counter 24 is allowed to the second counter 24. Switch to a state where the input is blocked and keep that state. An automatic output device that stops the measurement of the second measuring instrument by the counting signal input switching unit of the measurement control device 19, the automatic counter setting unit 33 of the second counter, and the second counter automatic stop setting switch 28 is provided. Composed.

  The control procedure of the weaving amount measuring device 21 will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. First, a case where only main weaving is performed will be described.

  In STEP 1 of FIG. 3, the operation start switch is operated, and the loom control device 15 starts the operation of the loom by driving the motor 16 and the like, and starts the main weaving. The measurement control device 19 resets the measurement values of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24 based on the operation start signal input through the loom control device 15, and stores the reset history.

  Then, it progresses to STEP2, and the measurement control apparatus 19 determines whether there exists any input of the pattern pattern termination | terminus signal. Immediately after the operation is started, the determination is NO. In the case of NO, this determination process is continued until a pattern pattern end signal is input. Then, when the weaving of the unit pattern pattern is completed, the pattern pattern end signal is output from the loom control device 15, so the determination is YES. If YES, proceed to STEP 3 and output the count signal to the total counter 22 and the first counter 23. The total counter 22 and the first counter 23 add 1 to the previous measured value, and the updated measured value Output to the measurement control device 19. The measurement control device 19 outputs and displays the updated measurement value on the total counter display unit 34a and the first counter display unit 34b.

  Next, proceeding to STEP 4, the measurement control device 19 determines whether or not interruption of the main weaving is determined by the operator and a boundary stop signal is input as an action based on the determination by operating the boundary stop switch 29. Since only the main weaving is described, the determination result is NO, and the process proceeds to STEP 22 in FIG.

  In STEP 22, the cumulative weaving number of the main weave obtained by subtracting the measurement value of the second counter 24 from the measurement value of the total counter 22 is registered and set by the automatic counter setting unit 43 and the total counter automatic stop setting switch 44 of the total counter. The measurement control device 19 determines whether or not the total set number of main weaving. In the case of YES, proceeding to STEPs 29 and 30, the measurement control device 19 outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15, and the loom is automatically stopped. If NO in STEP 22, the process proceeds to STEP 23, where the measurement control device 19 determines whether or not the number of sheets measured by the first counter 23 is the set number of cut-off weaving set by the automatic stop number setting unit 32 of the first counter. In the case of NO, the processes of STEPs 2 to 4, 22, and 23 are repeated. If YES in STEP 23, the process proceeds to STEP 24, where the measurement control device 19 outputs a start signal for the cut-off end weaving to the loom control device 15, and the loom control device 15 reads the cut-off end pattern from the pattern pattern setting device 20. Wholesale edge weaving is started.

  Subsequently, the process proceeds to STEP 25, and the measurement control device 19 determines whether or not the end signal of the cut-off end weaving is input from the loom control device 15. In the case of NO, this determination process is repeated. When there is an input of the end signal of the cut-off end weaving, if YES, the process proceeds to STEP 26, and weaving of the unit pattern pattern is resumed, and the measurement control device 19 outputs a reset signal to the step counter 36. The count starting from 0 is output to the measurement control device 19 as a measurement value.

  Next, proceeding to STEP 27, the measurement control device 19 determines whether or not the measurement number of the step counter 36 is the set step number. In the case of NO, this determination process is repeated. When the cut-off end 11 reaches a predetermined cut-off location on the woven cloth route, the determination is YES, and the process proceeds to STEP28.

  In STEP 28, the measurement control device 19 deletes the reset history of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24, and outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15. In STEP 30, the loom stops, and the operator Carry out the wholesale work. In STEP 28, a signal for subtracting the measurement value of the second counter 24 from the measurement value of the first counter 23 and the total counter 22 is output from the measurement control device 19 to the calculator 31. Since the description is made when weaving is not performed, the measured value of the second counter 24 is 0. Therefore, the measured values of the first counter 23 and the total counter 22 are maintained as they are, and the calculation result is output to the measurement control device 19. Then, the calculation result as it is is displayed on the total counter display part 34a and the first counter display part 34b. Thereby, the operator can grasp the cumulative weaving amount of the main weaving over a plurality of times of weaving weaving and the weaving amount of the main weaving in the current weaving weaving. Note that the second counter 24 has been reset in STEP 1, and the second counter display unit 34 c that displays the weaving amount of interrupt weaving displays 0.

  Next, the case where interrupt weaving is performed will be described by returning to just before STEP 4 in FIG. When an operator operates the boundary stop switch 29 to prevent waste of the main weaving before interrupting weaving, in STEP 4, it is determined whether or not a boundary stop signal is input by operating the boundary stop switch 29. The control device 19 is YES.

  Subsequently, the process proceeds to STEP 5 where the measurement control device 19 determines whether or not there is an input of a pattern pattern end signal. If NO, this process is repeated. If YES, the process proceeds to STEP6.

  In STEP 6, the count signal is output from the measurement control device 19 to the first counter 23 and the total counter 22, and the total counter 22 and the first counter 23 add 1 to the measured value so far, and the measurement control device 19 outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15. Then, it progresses to STEP7 and the loom control apparatus 15 stops a loom automatically.

  Then, it progresses to STEP8 and an operator operates the pattern pattern setting device 20, and changes a unit pattern pattern for interruption weaving. Further, when the operator operates the second counter automatic stop number setting unit 33 to register the number of interrupting weaving and operates the second counter automatic stop setting switch 28, the registered number of interrupting weaving is The set number of weaving interruptions for automatically stopping the loom is set, and the loom is automatically stopped when the set number of weaving ends. Further, when the operator operates the second counter operation switch 27, the input of the count signal to the second counter 24 is allowed, and the process proceeds to STEP11 in FIG. In STEP 11, when the operator operates the operation start switch, the loom control device 15 to which the operation start signal is input resumes the operation of the loom and outputs the operation start signal to the measurement control device 19. Since the reset history is stored (STEP 1), the measured values of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24 are not reset.

  Subsequently, the process proceeds to STEP 12 where the measurement control device 19 determines whether or not there is an input of a pattern pattern end signal. In the case of NO, this determination process is repeated, and in the case of YES, the process proceeds to STEP 13 where the measurement control device 19 outputs count signals to the first counter 23, the second counter 24, and the total counter 22, and these counters Increase the count by one.

  Subsequently, the process proceeds to STEP14, in which whether or not the measured value of the second counter 24 is the number of interrupted weaving sheets set via the second counter automatic stop number setting unit 33 and the second counter automatic stop setting switch 28 is determined. The measurement control device 19 determines. In the case of NO, the processing of STEPs 12 to 14 is repeated. If YES, the process proceeds to STEP 15 and the measurement control device 19 outputs a loom stop signal to the loom control device 15. Next, proceeding to STEP 16, the loom control device 15 stops the loom. In addition, the operator operates the second counter operation switch 27 to hold the measurement control device 19 in a state where the input of the count signal to the second counter 24 is blocked, and the pattern pattern setting device 20 operates the pattern control device 20. It is changed to the unit pattern pattern of the main weaving. Subsequently, proceeding to STEP 17, when the operator operates the operation start switch, the loom control device 15 to which the operation start signal is input resumes the operation of the loom. Since the reset history is stored in the measurement control device 19, the measurement values of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24 are not reset.

  Then, it progresses to STEP18 and the measurement control apparatus 19 determines whether there exists the input of the termination signal of a pattern pattern. In the case of NO, this process is repeated, and if a pattern pattern end signal is input, the determination is YES, and the process proceeds to STEP 21 in FIG.

  In STEP 21, the measurement control device 19 outputs a count signal, and when the count signal is input, the first counter 23 and the total counter 22 increase the measured value by one. Subsequently, the process proceeds to STEP 22, and after STEP 22, the above-described series of processing is executed. In STEP 28, the measurement control device 19 erases the reset history of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24, and the loom stop signal. Is output to the loom control device 15, and the loom stops at STEP30. In STEP 28, a signal for subtracting the measurement value n of the second counter 24 from the measurement values M and N of the total counter 22 and the first counter 23 is output from the measurement control device 19 to the calculator 31. The calculation result is output to the measurement control device 19, and the measurement control device 19 accumulates the total number of weaving M-n of the main weaving at the end of the cut-off weaving and the main weaving at the current cut-off weaving at the end of the cut-off weaving. As the number of weaving sheets Nn, the values of the calculation results Mn and Nn are stored and displayed on the total counter display unit 34a and the first counter display unit 34b. At this time, the second counter display unit 34c displays n.

  Although not described in the control procedure of the weaving amount measuring device 21 described above, in STEP 4, the operator may operate the loom stop switch without operating the boundary stop switch 29. In this case, STEP 5, Proceeding to STEP 7 without passing through STEP 6, the loom is stopped during the weaving of one woven cloth 4.

  FIG. 6 is a control block diagram of the weaving amount measuring device 21 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the first embodiment described above, the first counter 23 that is the first measuring instrument continued to measure even while the second counter 24 that was the second measuring instrument was measuring. However, in the second embodiment, the first counter 23 interrupts the measurement with the start of the measurement of the second counter 24, and restarts the measurement with the stop of the measurement of the second counter 24. Measurement is performed only at the time of measurement by the counter 24 of 2. Therefore, unlike the first embodiment, the weaving amount measuring device 21 of the second embodiment includes a counting signal output destination selection switch 41 instead of the second counter operation switch 27, and is provided with a calculator 31. The counting signal output destination selection switch 41 constitutes a manual start switch and a manual stop switch. The details will be described below.

  When the count signal output destination selection switch 41 is connected to the measurement control device 19 and functions as a manual start switch, the count signal output destination selection switch 41 outputs a signal for starting measurement of the second counter 24 which is a second measuring instrument, With the output, the measurement of the first counter 23 which is the first measuring instrument is stopped. That is, the count signal output destination selection switch 41 has a second counter selection unit, and when the operator operates the second counter selection unit, the switch 41 is a signal for starting the measurement of the second counter 24. As the second counter selection signal is output to the measurement control device 19, and based on the signal, the measurement control device 19 sets the output destination of the count signal to the second counter 24 and starts the measurement of the second counter 24. At the same time, the first counter 23 is set as a non-output destination of the count signal, and the measurement of the first counter 23 is stopped. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first counter 23, the total counter 22 also becomes a non-output destination of the count signal and stops the measurement.

  When the count signal output destination selection switch 41 functions as a manual stop switch, the count signal output destination selection switch 41 outputs a signal for stopping the measurement of the second counter 24 to the measurement control device 19, and the first counter 23 is accompanied by the output. Measurement has started. That is, the count signal output destination selection switch 41 has a first counter selection unit, and when the operator operates the first counter selection unit, the switch 41 is a signal for stopping the measurement of the second counter 24. As the first counter selection signal is output to the measurement control device 19, and based on the signal, the measurement control device 19 sets the output destination of the count signal to the first counter 23 and starts the measurement of the first counter 23. At the same time, the second counter 24 is set as a non-output destination of the count signal, and the measurement of the second counter 24 is stopped. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first counter 23, the total counter 22 also starts counting as an output destination of the count signal.

  The total counter 22 and the first counter 23 are not input with a count signal at the time of interrupt weaving, but are input only at the time of main weaving, so the total counter display unit 34a and the first counter display unit 34b have The number of main weaving is always displayed.

  When one of the first counter 23 and the second counter 24 is selected as the output destination of the count signal by the signal from the count signal output destination selection switch 41, the other counter counts. It is automatically changed to a non-selected state as a signal non-output destination. However, one manual switch is operated to select one counter as the count signal output destination, and another manual switch is operated to deselect the other counter as the count signal non-output destination. The state may be changed. For example, a switch for the first counter 23 that uses the first counter 23 as either the output destination or the non-output destination of the count signal is provided as one manual switch, and the second counter 24 is provided as another manual switch. Is provided as a second counter 24 switch that outputs one of the count signal output destination and non-output destination. When the measurement is started by the first counter 23, the first counter 23 switch is operated to set the first counter 23 as the output destination of the count signal, and the second counter 24 switch is operated to change the first counter 23. 2 counter 24 is set as the non-output destination of the count signal. When the measurement of the second counter 24 is started, the first counter 23 switch and the second counter 24 switch are respectively operated, and the first counter 23 is controlled by the first counter 23 switch. The non-output destination is set, and the second counter 24 is set as the count signal output destination by the second counter 24 switch.

  In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, each device constituting the weaving amount measuring device 21 is constructed by executing a program by a computer, and is all arranged on the same screen of the operation panel. However, some of these devices may be arranged on different screens of the operation panel, or may not be provided on the screen by using commercially available devices.
