Definitions

  • This invention relates to a collector system for elongated articles as used, for example, in weft winding machines having a conveyor arrangement to remove the wound p It is one of the primary objects of the invention to provide means affording the transfer of pirns in substantially parallel and aligned positions with respect to each other to a collector receptacle, whereby such collector system may be either built onto existing weft winding machines or may be readily incorporated in new winding machines so that the removal of the weft pirns is automatically achieved and the receptacle is charged with said pirns while the same remain in aligned and parallel positions with respect to each other. 7
  • the collector band is preferably operatively connected to a brake roller for releasing said collector band step by step into said receptacle, whereby the collector band is partly wound around said roller and the braking or drag power of the latter is so calculated that the retraction of the band into the container under the weight of the weft pirns takes place gradually, so that the pirns, unable to fall indiscriminately, retain their parallel alignment.
  • Fig. 1 is a lateral elevation of the invention showing only the essential parts
  • Fig. 2 is an end elevation of the receptacle or container taking the form of a packing bag in its suspension device.
  • a conveyor band 1 which expediently extends throughout the length of the weft winding machine (not shown), is driven in the direction of the arrows by a drive motor or by the main drive shaft of the machine through the intermediary of a wormwheel transmission gear (not shown), and conveys the elongated articles or pirns 2, as they arrive, in the leftward direction to the packing arrangement (Fig. 1).
  • the paralleling device consists of a press-plate 4, adjustable for height and spring-mounted, is disposed in the path of the pirns, the reception end of which press-plate is slightly upturned and which pressplate encompasses the exact aligning of the weft pirns transversally to the lengthwise axis of the conveyor arrangement. Adjustment of the height of the press-plate 4 is effected by means of screws 3.
  • the weft pirns are then impelled into a flat channel consisting of an intermediate plate 5 and an upper mem ber 5a.
  • the thrust of the further weft pirns as they arrive impels forward those lying in front of them, which therefore pass on to a collector band 7 which is of a width approximately equal to the length of the weft pirns and, under the weight of the pirns, slowly recedes into the packing bag 12.
  • the band is provided with eyelets which are slipped on to holding pegs 9 a guide roller 6 on to a braked roller 8 on to which it is preferably partly wound.
  • the band or collector element 7 is provided with three portions, of which one portion extends into the path of the aligning or paralleling means 35, a second portion reaches into the receptacle or bag 12 and a third portion is engaged by releasing means 10, which includes a brake roller 8.
  • the braking and release arrangement which f0 erab-le means and may consist of a friction brake 10 and a loading weight 11, is so balanced that the subsidence of the band takes place gradually.
  • Designated by the numeral 13 is a flap which is kept open until the container is full.
  • the flap 13 can be swung downwards into the position shown by the broken line, with the result that the weft pirns, as they arrive, will accumulate until the flap 13 is opened again.
  • the collecting band 7 is detached from the pegs 9 and '9a, and the bag itself, which is suspended by lateral flaps from the pegs 16 of the packing device, is detached and wheeled out of the packing device by means of a trolley plate 15 travelling on rails 14.
  • the trolley arrangement 14, 15 is important because it enables the personnel tending the weft winding machine, which personnel generally consists of one woman, to remove the packing bag, which may weigh anything up to about lbs., unaided, and to suspend a new packing bag in its place, without interrupting the running o f the machine. The packed bags can then be sewn up or made ready for transport in some other way.
  • the invent-ive device can, without modification, be used in conjunction with other receptacles or containers, such as wooden cases, sheet metal bins, or the like.
  • my invention is not limited ms opframe, means for removably supporting said receptacle on said frame when the/former has been filled with pirns,
  • Inta collector systemfor pirns and like elongated articles thecombination of a receptacle having a top end, into which'said pirns are to be discharged, at supporting frame,,means for removably supporting said receptacle on saidframe when the former has been filled with pirns, means aligning said pirns in parallel relation next to each otherandarranged substantially level wtih the top end of said receptacle, movably disposed collector means having three portions, one portion extending into the path of said aligning means, the second portion extending into said receptacle for maintaining said pirns transversely to the longitudinal axis of said collector means, and operable means positioned adjacent said aligning means and operatively connected to the third portion of said collector means and guiding the latter past said aligning means and releasing said second portion of said collector means gradually toward the interior of said receptacle, so that said pirns when coming from said aligning means are moved into said recepta
  • said aligning means including a spring-supported press plate, and conveyor means arranged opposite said press plate therebelow, whereby said pirns will be displaced by said conveyonmeansand arealigned between it and saidpress plate.
  • said aligning means further including substantially horizontal channel means through which said pirns are guided for engagement with said one portion of said collector means.
  • said operable means including a balanced roller with counterweight, andinterengageable means, respectively, on said roller and on said collector means for controlling gradual release of said second portion of said collector means into said receptacle.
  • said aligning means including conveyor means, plate means overlying a part of said conveyor means, whereby pirns freely transported by said conveyor means are brought into aligned position by said plate means, and channel means through which said pirns are guided in side-byside relation and substantially parallel to each other, said channel means extending from said conveyor means to said other portion of said collector means for direct discharge of saidpirns thereon.
  • said plate means being spaced from said conveyor means, the entrance to the space between said plate means and part of said conveyor means being greater in width than the diameter of a pirn.
