Definitions

  • yarn as used herein is intended to encompass all types of threads, rovings, slivers, yarns and the like.
  • additional yarn from an auxiliary supply may be wound upon the bobbin, or, as in still other known apparatus, an entirely new bobbin may be substituted for that upon the spindle, and yarn either already upon the new bobbin or subsequently added thereto utilized for subsequently ensuing operations.
  • yarn either originally present or subsequently added to either the original or substituted bobbin is thereafter traveler-threaded and then joined, in any one of several possible ways, with the yarn issuing from the delivery rolls of the spinning frame.
  • the present invention provides a method and apparatus for performing pneumatic or similar traveler-threading operations in such a manner as to obviate nonthreading of the traveler.
  • the possibility of yarn breakage, upon the resumption of normal spinning operations, as well as the possibility of doublethreading of the traveler, are also thus substantially reduced if not completely eliminated.
  • the benefits are in large part achieved by controlling and adjusting the inclination of the yarn path between the bobbin and the means holding the yarn end such that the thread line extending therebetween is substantially horizontal, and then adjusting the yarn path between the traveler-engaging surface of the spinning ring and the bobbin at a prescribed shallow angle to the horizontal, such latter adjustment being effected immediately prior to the traveler being moved about the ring onto the yarn.
  • the traveler when the yarn path just prior to threading extends at a consistent and prescribed shallow angle relative to the horizontal plane of the upper surface of the ring and the point where it reaches the bobbin, it has been found that the traveler will reliably mount the yarn to be stopped thereby in its course around the ring so that double or multiple threading is ohviated, and that as a consequence of said shallow angle upon the subsequent resumption of the winding operations the yarn will readily overcome the traveler's inertia and will therefore be subjected to a much reduced stress which otherwise would tent to break it.
  • the method and apparatus of the present invention contemplates positioning a length of yarn connected to the bobbin through a predetermined desired location at an elevation above the substantially horizontal flange of the traveler-engaging surface of the ring, and winding a prescribed length of yarn back onto the bobbin. preferably from 2 to 5 wraps of yarn thereabout cause the inner or bobbin end of the yarn path to attain the predetermined horizontal elevation of the outer end of the yarn path.
  • the yarn path is first adjusted to extend substantially horizontally a prescribed distance above the traveler-engaging surface of the ring, whereupon the yarn intermediate the inner or bobbin-connected and the outer end of the path is then deflected downwardly so as to simultaneously bring it into abutting engagement with the traveler-engaging surface of the ring and thereby to incline the yarn path at the aforesaid prescribed and consistent shallow angle relative to the horizontal, after which the yarn is single threaded by moving the traveler onto it.
  • FIG. l is an environmental perspective view, with some parts broken away, showing several deliveries of a spinning frame serviced by an automatic yarn piecing apparatus embodying principles of the present invention, one of said deliveries having a broken yarn thereat;
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged side elevation, with parts broken away, of the subcarriage of the piecing apparatus which carries the mechanisms for finding, extending and traveler-threading yarn upon the bobbin at a delivery being serviced by the apparatus;
  • FIG. 3 is a plan view of the subcarriage of FIG. 2;
  • FIGS. 4-6 are each fragmentary and partially schematic side elevations of a delivery of the spinning frame being serviced by the piecing apparatus and sequentially showing the relative operational positions of components of the apparatus prior to and during retrieval of the yarn end on the bobbin;
  • FIG. 6A is a plan view with parts broken away showing the preposition of the traveler about the ring of FIGS. 4-6;
  • FIG. 7 is an enlarged elevation with parts broken away a similar to FIGS. 4-6, showing rewinding of a few turns of the retrieved yarn onto the bobbin to adjust its path to approximately a horizontal position preparatory to establishing the desired angle of yarn path inclination;
  • FIGS. 8-1 1 are side elevations similar to FIGS. 4-6, sequentially showing the further relative operational positions of the components to attain the desired angle of yarn inclination and properly thread the traveler on the yarn;
  • FIGS. 8A and 9A are plan views respectively showing the relative positions of the traveler and the traveler-stop components during the operations illustrated in FIGS. 8 and 9;
  • FIG. 12 is an enlarged view, partially in section and partially in elevation with some parts broken away, of the bobbin driv ing and braking disc shown in FIG. 1 and its associated components; and l FIG. 13 is a sectional view taken substantially along line 13-13 in FIG. 12.

  • the yarn issuing at each delivery from front rolls I2 and I3 normally passes downwardly through a guide 14 and balloon control ring 60, and then through a traveler l5 movable about a ring 16 surrounding its respective spindle II.
  • All of the rings 16 are carried by a ring rail 17 which reciprocates axially of the spindles 11 to guide the yarn Y along the bobbins 11' as it is wound thereon by rotation of the spindles 11 in a clockwise direction through drive tapes 62.
  • the yarn piecing apparatus YP shown in FIG. 1 includes a.
  • main carriage 20 mounted in any suitable manner for longitudinal movement along the spinning frame S to a position of alignment with any delivery thereof requiring servicing by reason of a broken yarn or ends-down" condition thereat.
  • the carriage's supporting, driving, aligning and control mechanisms do not form part of the'present invention per se, and may be of any desired type.
  • the apparatus YP specifically shown for purposes of illustration is of the type wherein yarn previously spun and wound upon a bobbin of spinning frame S is retrieved, traveler threaded and then rejoined to the yarn issuing from the rolls I2, 13 at the delivery in question to effect piecing. Principles of the invention are also applicable, however, to other types of piecing apparatus, including those which add a length of yarn and/or which change bobbins during the piecing operation.
  • FIG. I generally illustrates the position assumed by carriage 20 relative to a spindle l 1 at a delivery, illustratively the third from the left, where the yarn has broken.
  • the roving end of the broken yarn is shown at B as it is delivered downwardly over bottom roll 12 and into the conventional ends-down suction orifice 21 therebeneath.

  • the upper portion of carriage 20 mounts a pivotally movable piecing head 28, best shown in FIG. 5, which completes each piecing operation by transporting the retrieved and traveler-threaded bobbin yarn to delivery rolls 12, 13 and joining the same with the yarn B issuing therefrom.
  • piecing head 28 which forms no part of the present invention as such, the aforesaid components and their modes of operations are described in detail hereinafter.
  • disc 24 is mounted for rotative movement about a substantially vertical axis, and also for translatory movement toward and away from the lower end portion of the spindle 11 being serviced by apparatus YP, on a shaft 78 which extends through an arcuate slot 82 provided in the upper platform of carriage 20s lower portion and journaled for rotation by a housing 72 carried within carriage 20 upon a lever 84 pivotally movable with a supporting shaft 86.

  • a tension spring 41 connected between lug 46 and a lug 42 on base plate 31, biases plate 32 for sliding movement in a leftward direction.
  • a bracket 52 attached to flange 35 of plate 31 beneath slidable plate 32 includes a pair s zsslzo of ears 32' at the upper end thereof.
  • An L-shaped actuator 33 pivotally mounted between ears 32' engages bearing flange 43 at its upper end, and has its lower end connected to an extendable and retractable control wire 34 which passes through bracket 32 and a protective sheath 33 to suitable means (not shown) disposed within carriage 24) for at desired times extending and retracting the wire.
  • wire 3 When wire 3 is fully retracted, engagement of actuator 33 with flange ill maintains plate 32 in its rightmost position'(FlG. 2), against the leftward biasing force of spring ll.

  • depressor 37 In its upward inoperative position (FIG. 6), depressor 37 is sufficiently above the inlet opening of suction head 22 to not impede the latters placement closely adjacent that portion of a bobbin 111' above its associated ring 16 for the purpose of retrieving therefrom the free end of yarn upon the bobbin.
  • Suction head 22 is provided inwardly of its inlet opening and adjacent the lower portion thereof with yarn guiding means which, as shown in FIG 7, may take the form of a downwardly extending projection 22' within its throat portion.
  • projection 22' serves to guide yarn B withdrawn and extending out wardly from a bobbin ill through a desired location spaced at predetermined distance above the traveler engaging surface of the upper flange of the ring 16 associated with the bobbin.
  • Subca'rriage 3t then is moved downwardly by downward movement of flange 33 through tracltway 23, so that its supportive arm 29 engages and rests upon vertically moving ring rail ll? of spinning frame S (lFllG. 3).
  • the drive mechanism associated within carriage 20 with flange 33 then relinquishes its control over the subcarriage, which is: now supported through arm 29 by ring rail 11? for vertical movement therewith. Plate 32 and disc 22 still occupy their rightmost positions, and winding rotation of spindle Ill and bobbin llll' continues.
  • disc 2 is pivoted by lever 84 into engagement with the lower portion of spindle Ill and is being driven through pulley 37 so as to slowly rotate the spindle and bobbin ill in an opposite or unwinding direction.

  • arm d3 and depressor 37 are cammed upwardly to an inoperative elevated position by foliower pin 31 and cam means 36, so as to not impede the close approach of the inlet of suction head 22 to that portion of bobbin 111 immediately above ring lb.
  • the suction flow of air begun through head 22 and its associated hose 26 retrieves the end of the yarn B on the aforesaid portion of the unwinding bobbin ill and conveys such end and succeeding lengths of the yarn B through suction head 22 and hose 26 to photoelectric or other suitable sensing means (not shown) within carriage 20.
  • the drive to disc 2d is deenergized and the suction airflow through head 22 and hose 2% is stopped.

It will be appreciated that the same result would have ensued if, at the moment of cessation of the bobbins rotation in an unwinding direction, the bobbin or inner end of the yarn B extending to suction head 22 were at some location upon the bobbin other than that shown in FIG. 6. in any event, the bobbin end of the yarn path will, upon winding rotation of bobbin ill, be either lowered or elevated so as to substantially assume the same elevation as that of the outer end of the yarn B engaging abutment 22' within suction head 22.
  • spindle l1 and bobbin 11 are held stationary by disc 24, which is in itself maintained stationary by abutment of arm 70 with an extremity of slot 74 (FIG. 13) as, plate 32 is moved to the right by retraction of wire 54 and the resulting clockwise pivotal movement of actuator 53.
  • lever 45 and thus yarn depressor 47 are cammed to a lowered position by follower pin 51 and cam means 36.

  • Another momentary ail-blast then emitted from nozzle 48 propels traveler 15 in a clockwise direction (as viewed in FIG.
  • Such double-threading of traveler 15 may also be positively prohibited, and is so prohibited in the apparatus shown, since the traveler would before any possible double-threading engage wirelike member 49 and be brought to a stop.
  • member 49 or other means for positively preventing double-threading of traveler 15 are provided, a yarn path angularity of less than that previously described and shown in FIG. 8 is permissible, and may be achieved by modifying in any one of several possible ways the illustrated construction such that the vertical distance in FIG. 7 between the upper surface of ring 16 and the lower surface of abutment 22' of head 22 is reduced.
  • FIG. 10 disc 24, spindle 11 and bobbin 11 remain stationary as wire 54 is retracted to move plate 32 completely back to its original rightward position.
  • FIG. 11 shows subcarriage 30 being moved upwardly to its original elevated position of FIG. I, by flange 35 and the associated and reactuated drive mechanism within carriage 20. During upward movement of subcarriage 30, some of the now traveler-threaded yarn 8' previously withdrawn from bobbin 11' into suction head 22 and hose 26 trails therefrom.
