Definitions

  • This invention relates to apparatus for inspecting and stacking hosiery, and more particularly to an improved stacking device whose action is correlated with the hosiery inspection operation.
  • Devices of this type in general include a hollow tubular inspection form supported at one end so a hose to be inspected may he slipped over the unsupported end of the form in an inside-out condition and inspected. After inspection is completed, a flow of air is induced through the form in a direction away from the unsupported end. The flow of air draws the hose into the tube by first withdrawing the toe end of the hose into the tube. As the hose enters the tube, it is averted or turned right-side-out and transferred through the interior of the inspection form to an outlet. At the outlet, a stacking device may grasp the toe end of the hose and transfer it from the discharge end of the inspection form to a stacking table. Frequently, means are provided for inducing a flow of air through the transfer passage in the opposite direction to assist the operator in placing a hose on the inspection form, the discharge of air from this end serving to blow-up the hose as it is being inserted on the form.
  • the function of the stocking device is to transfer hose from the inspection device to a stacking location and during this transfer operation straightening the hose to its full length.
  • Both pneumatic and mechanical arrangements foraccomplishing this stacking operation have been developed.
  • the toe end of the hose is grasped by a gripping device, moved to the stacking station and released.
  • the opening and closing the gripping device is accomplished by various cam arrangements which require special driving means.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide an improved stacking device for positively gripping the hosiery inspection device and stacking device in which hose of widely varying weights may be delivered to the stacking device in condition for orderly stacking.
  • a device having a stacking means which includes a pair of arms mounted for relative movement.
  • a gripping device is connected between the arms to be operated between an open and closed position by relative movement between the arms.
  • the gripping device is so arranged as to define a limit to relative movement between the arms in one direction and thereby, when closed, serves to create a driving connection from one arm to the other.
  • Limit stops position the arms relative to each other to open the gripping device at the stacking station.
  • a pneumatic motor is connected to the one arm to drive the arm in a manner moving both arms to move the gripping device between a receiving location and a stacking location.
  • Movement of the driven arm closes the gripping device to grip a hose and the gripping device couples the other arm to be driven with the driven arm to the stacking station.
  • the other arm is accelerated toward the driven arm to open the gripping device and accelerate the gripping device away from the hose.
  • the arms are spring biased to return to the receiving position when the air motor is vented.
  • the air motor is coupled to the hosiery inspection portion of the machIne to supply air under pressure to the motor upon the induction of flow of air through the inspecting portion in one direction and to vent the air motor upon the induction of flow through the inspection portion in the opposite direction.
  • a single valve controls the flow of air in either direction through the inspection portion of the machine and simultaneously operates the pneumatically controlled stacking device toward or away from the receiving station in accordance with the di rection of flow of air through the inspecting portion of the machine.
  • a bypass conduit is connected in parallel with the transfer tube in the inspection portion of the machine.
  • a throttling valve in the bypass conduit may be adjusted to control the rate of flow of air through the transfer tube.

  • Form 22 is hollow and open at both ends.
  • the supported end of form 22 is fixed to frame 21) and connected to a curved hosiery transfer tube 28 in such amanner that the passage through form 22 definesan inlet to tube 28.
  • the outlet 38 of tube 28 is surrounded by a plurality of conveying wire fingers 31 which function to catch and retain hose discharged from tube 28 in position to bereceived by a stacking'device to'be described below.
  • a motor 32 is mounted Within housing 28 and is connected by suitable means 34 to drive an air compressor 36 which is connected by'conduit 38 to a storage tank or accumulator 40.

  • a first conduit 46 is connected between storage tank 40 and tube 28. As best seen in Fig. 3, tube 28 curves downwardly after it passes through front wall 26 of the housing. Conduit 46 is connected to open into tube 28 at the aforementioned curved section in such a manner that the axis of conduit 46 at the point of connection is ⁇ substantially coaxial with outlet 38 so that air is'discharged into the passage defined by tube 28 directly toward outlet 30.
  • a second conduit 48 extends from tank '40 to a conduit 50.
  • a relatively small diameter conduit section 52 of conduit 50 connects conduit 48 to tube 28 in a manner such that air discharged into the passage defined by tube 28 from conduit section 52 flows through the passage in a direction away from outlet 30.
  • conduits 46 and 52 are connected to tube 28 in such a manner as to cause air to flow through tube 28 in opposite directions.
  • valve assembly shown in Fig. is employed to connect one or the other of conduits 46 and 48 to the air supply maintained within tank 48.

  • bypass conduit 72 is connected between conduit 46 and conduit 50 in parallel with tube 28.
  • a throttling valve TV is connected in bypass conduit 72, and by adjusting the opening of valve TV, a selected portion of the flow of air through conduit 46 may be conducted through bypass conduit 72 and discharged into tube-28 from conduit section 52 in opposition to flow of airin tube 28 toward outlet 30.
  • Bypass conduit 72 is similarly effective on flow through tube 28 in the opposite direction, however the rate of discharge through outlet 30 is of greater concern in the prevention of balling or compacting of hose during transfer through tube 28.
  • stacking device 70 is mounted upon the fixed frame and housing 28 by upper and lower frame members 74 and 76 respectively.
  • Frame members 74 and -76 are rigidly secured at one end to the side of frame or housing 28 and are joined at their outer ends by a vertically extending frame plate 78 which is rigidly secured, as by welding, to both of frame members 74 and 76.

  • Reference numerals 102 through 106 have been applied only in Fig. 4 due to lack of space in Fig. 6.
  • an arm 118 is fixedly secured to sleeve 84 for rotation therewith.
  • an arm 112 is rigidly fixed, as by welding, to arm to project at right angles from one side of arm 110.

  • a fixed stop 166 is mounted upon plate 124 to define a limit to clockwise (Fig. 6) movement of arm 142.
  • the machine operator commences a cycle of operation by taking a sock to be inspected and placing it on inspection form 22 in the position illustrated by the broken lines S in Fig. 2. This operation is facilitated by the discharge of air from conduit section 52 through the open end of inspection form 22 where the sock is placed on inspection form 22 in an inside-out condition. With the sock S on form 22, the machine operator inspects the sock for flaws. Assuming that the sock being inspected is satisfactory, the operator depresses foot pedal FP to shift valve shutter 54 from the position shown in Fig. 5 to block communication between the interior of tank 40 and conduit 48, thereby stopping the fiow of air through conduit 48 to bellows 68 via conduit 50 and to tube 28 via conduit 52.
  • conduit 46 As conduit 48 is blocked by valve shutter 54, conduit 46 is opened and placed in communication with the air supply within tank 40. Air then flows from the interior of tank 46 through conduit 46 which, as described above, is connected to tube 28 in a manner to discharge air from conduit 46 directly through outlet opening at 30.
  • the rate of flow of air from conduit 46 through outlet 30 is regulated by adjusting throttling valve TV in bypass conduit 72. Adjustment of the rate of flow of air in this manner is desirable since too high a flow rate tends to It will be recalled that arm 110 is rigidly ball up the sock inthe passage or to compact it in retaining fingers 31' and thus render orderly stacking difiicult.
  • sleeve 84 is driven in counterclockwise rotation (Figs. 6 and 7) by virtue of the connection between drive rod 94 and crank 88 which is secured to sleeve 84. Since arm 110 is rigidly connected to sleeve 84 it is rotated in a counterclockwise direction from the position shown in Fig. 6 to the position shown in Fig. 7. During this initial portion of the rotary movement of arm 110, arm 142 remains stationary since it is firmly biased against its stop 166 by spring 138. Thus, a slight amount of relative angular movement occurs between arm 110 and arm 142. This relative movement is employed to move gripping finger 150 from the open position of Fig. 6 to the closed position of Fig.
  • feeler arm 120 is likewise forced to follow the rotary movement of arm 110.
  • roller 126 at the distal end of feeler 120 comes into contact with cam' surface 164 which, as stated above, is mountedin fixed relationship to arm 142.
  • Roller 126 moves into engagement with cam surface 164 just prior to the engagement between stop 128 and plate 78.
  • arm 110 moves through the final portion of its counterclockwise movement, from the position of Fig. 8 to the position of Fig. 9, roller 126 is forcibly driven against cam surface 164 and this action accelerates arm 142 to reduce the angular displacement between arm 142 and arm 110 as arm 110 goes into its stop.
