Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tank for dyeing textile materials.
  • the dyeing of textile materials is known to include, in general, dipping the materials into a dyeing bath consisting of an aqueous solution in which suitable amounts of colouring substances and chemicals are dissolved.
  • a dyeing bath consisting of an aqueous solution in which suitable amounts of colouring substances and chemicals are dissolved.
  • said solution is brought to a predetermined temperature higher than the ambient one to meet process requirements; this implies an inner pressure within the tanks which is higher than the external one. It is necessary to ensure, therefore, a perfect hermetic seal of the mouths for the dipping/removal of the materials to avoid unwanted emission of vapors and leakage of liquid, and thus seriously compromise the dyeing outcome.
  • the main object of the present invention is to propose a tank for dyeing textile materials with an automatic apparatus for the opening and closing of the same tank, said apparatus ensuring maximum safety and a perfect hermetic seal of the tank under operating conditions.
  • the advantages deriving from the present invention lie essentially in the fact that it is possible to achieve maximum safety in the operation of the tank by providing the automatic opening and closing thereof and preventing said opening in the absence of the forces exerted for closing the same tank; that an apparatus according to the invention is relatively easy to make, cost-effective, and reliable even after a prolonged service life; that a tank provided with an opening and closing apparatus according to the invention can be advantageously used, that is, mounted, also in automatic or semiautomatic plants for handling materials under treatment.
  • FIGS. 1 A- 1 C show schematically a sequence of steps relating to the opening of a tank according to the invention
  • FIGS. 2 A- 2 G show schematically a sequence of operational steps relating to the removal of a basket from a standby plane (FIGS. 2A, 2B), to the lifting of the same basket from the standby plane (FIG. 2C), to the introduction of the basket into the tank shown in FIGS. 1 A- 1 C (FIGS. 2D, 2E), to the release of the basket into the tank (FIG. 2F) and to the closing of the latter (FIG. 2G);
  • FIG. 3A shows an enlarged detail of the drawing of FIG. 2C relating to a possible embodiment of the baskets-driving unit, the said unit being shown upon hooking the basket;
  • FIG. 3B shows an enlarged detail of the drawing of FIG. 2E relating to the apparatus of FIG. 3A but in a condition of releasing a basket;
  • FIGS. 4 A- 4 C show schematically a sequence of operational steps relating to the removal of a reel-holder from a standby plane (FIGS. 4A, 4B) and to the hooking of the reel-holder (FIG. 4C) which is to be introduced into the tank shown in the preceding figures, the steps relating to the introduction of the reel-holder into the tank being identical to those shown in FIGS. 2 D- 2 G;
  • FIG. 5 is a diagram referring to a possible relative positioning of some hinges of the system
  • FIGS. 6A and 6B show schematically, in side view (FIG. 6A) and front view (FIG. 6B), a tank in closing condition;
  • FIG. 6C is an enlarged view of a detail not visible in FIG. 6A.
  • a tank for dyeing textile materials comprises a substantially cylindrical container ( 1 ) with a mouth ( 10 ), for the introduction and respectively the removal of materials to be dyed, and with a lid ( 2 ) associated therewith.
  • the opening of the lid ( 2 ) allows introducing the materials into the body ( 1 ) and, respectively, removing them therefrom upon completion of the dyeing process within the tank.
  • the closing of the lid ( 2 ) is operated automatically to start the dyeing process after the introduction of the materials into the body ( 1 ).
  • the said lid is engaged with driving means operating a rotation, that is, the positioning thereof, for the closing and respectively opening of the tank, for respectively enabling and disabling the access to the body ( 1 ) wherein the dyeing liquid is held.
  • driving means operating a rotation, that is, the positioning thereof, for the closing and respectively opening of the tank, for respectively enabling and disabling the access to the body ( 1 ) wherein the dyeing liquid is held.
  • the composition of the dyeing liquid is determined according to criteria known to those skilled in the art.
  • the lid ( 2 ) is associated with the body ( 1 ) by a connecting hinge ( 21 ) and by a fork structure comprising two diametrally opposite arms ( 3 ) which, in correspondence or in the vicinity of the respective free ends are connected to the container ( 1 ) via transverse hinges ( 31 ); in practice, the axis of each hinge ( 31 ) is orthogonal to the respective arm ( 3 ) and is parallel to that of said hinge ( 21 ), the latter linking the lid ( 2 ) to the body of the container ( 1 ).
  • the two arms ( 3 ) are joined on top by a crosspiece ( 30 ).
  • a lever ( 33 ) is connected to the two arms ( 3 ), said lever being in turn connected to an upper appendix ( 32 ) of lid ( 2 ).
  • the connection between the lever ( 33 ) and the arms ( 3 ) is made via a hinge ( 330 ).
  • the connection between the lever ( 33 ) and the lid ( 2 ) is made via a hinge ( 320 ).
  • the axes of all the hinges above indicated are parallel to each other.
  • the said fork structure is engaged with a cylinder actuator ( 4 ).
  • the latter is connected to one of the two arms ( 3 ) of the structure. More specifically, and as illustrated in the figures of the attached drawings, the rod ( 40 ) of actuator ( 4 ) is engaged with one of the arms ( 3 ) via a corresponding hinge ( 43 ), the shell ( 41 ) of cylinder ( 4 ) being engaged, via a corresponding hinge ( 44 ), with a bearing plane (P) which supports also the tank's body ( 1 ).
  • the axes of hinges ( 43 , 44 ) are parallel to each other and to the axes of the other hinges mentioned above.
  • the hinges ( 43 ) and ( 330 ) can be offset, that is, put out of alignment, with the hinge ( 330 ) being at a distance from hinge ( 21 ) longer than from hinge ( 43 ), thereby allowing a higher operational safety, that is, preventing the spontaneous opening of the lid ( 2 ) possibly due to the pressure exerted onto the inner surface thereof by the vapors which form as a consequence of heating the dyeing bath within the tank.
  • two adjustable screw pins ( 331 ) are provided on the body ( 32 ) of the hinge ( 320 ) located on the lid ( 2 ), said screw pins going through the same body and their ends making up a stop means against which the lever ( 33 ) is made to abut upon closing the lid ( 2 ). In this way, the angular position ( ⁇ ) of lever ( 33 ) upon closing the lid ( 2 ) can be adjusted at will.
  • the tank's body ( 1 ) is provided with mouths (H, K) of known type for the introduction of fluids intended for heating/cooling the tank and for the circulation of the dyeing bath.
  • a nozzle ( 20 ) can be associated with the tank's lid ( 2 ) for feeding a service fluid, such as a colouring substance, via a hose ( 22 ) connected with a pump of known type and not described nor illustrated in detail.
  • a service fluid such as a colouring substance
  • the materials to be dyed may be, for example, rolls or patches of fabric held in perforated basket ( 5 )—as shown in FIGS. 2 A- 2 G, or reels of yarn fitted on reel-holders ( 6 ), as shown in FIGS. 4 A- 4 C.
  • a mechanical arm ( 7 ) known per se to those skilled in the art—able to remove the baskets ( 5 ) and the reel-holders ( 6 ) from a standby plane (P) to dispose them into the tank and, upon completion of the dyeing cycle, removing same baskets from the tank and dispose them onto said plane (P) or another plane (for example, a plane onto which the baskets and reel-holders with treated materials are disposed).
  • the said arm ( 7 ) is provided at the bottom with a grip section ( 70 ) intended for engaging an upper appendix ( 51 ; 61 ) of the basket ( 5 ) or of the reel-holder ( 6 ) upon the hooking thereof, and disengaging it upon the release step.
  • the said grip section ( 70 ) of arm ( 7 ) comprises a bush with lead-in mouth ( 71 ) to be fitted onto the said appendix ( 51 ; 61 ) upon hooking either the basket or reel-holder, with an intermediate cylindrical portion and a rear conical portion followed by a further cylindrical portion.
  • the bush ( 71 ) receives a plurality of balls ( 72 ) onto which a spring ( 73 ), also housed inside the rear cylindrical portion of the same bush ( 71 ), is made to act from above.
  • Acting on the spring ( 73 ) is a lever ( 74 ) which is operated by a pneumatic actuator ( 75 ) mounted on the same arm ( 7 ), that is, engaged with a corresponding support bracket ( 76 ).
  • the spring ( 73 ) causes the balls ( 72 ) to press the corrugated surface of appendix ( 51 ; 61 ) exhibetd by the basket ( 5 ) or by the reel-holder ( 6 ).
  • the said arm ( 7 ) is mounted on a movable support ( 77 ) allowing the positioning of same arm ( 7 ), and thus of the engagement/disengagement unit ( 70 ), in correspondence of the resting sites of baskets ( 5 ) and reel-holders ( 6 ) and in correspondence of tank ( 1 ).
  • the said movable support ( 77 ) is engaged with electric motors (not shown) by using connection means of known type, said motors being in turn engaged with a programmable control unit also of known type and which operates the actuator ( 4 ) for causing either the opening/closing of the tank's lid ( 2 ), upon the arrival of baskets ( 5 ) or reel-holders ( 6 ) during the loading step, or the removal thereof during the unloading step, that is upon completion of the dyeing.
