- electromechanical systems Insofar as there are mechanical components operating in the aforereferenced prior art electromechanical systems, these latter systems have a tendency to be subject to the same disadvantages noted hereinabove as' being found in mechanical systems.
- electromechanical systems normally possess some advantages over mechanical systems particularly with regard to reliability in operation and speed of response. That is the electrical components employed in these systems generally permit a faster speed of response such that control functions can be initiated much more rapidly than is possible with pure mechanical systems.
- barring electrical power failures attributable to non-system causes, the uninterrupted operating life of electrical systems is generally better than with mechanical systems.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide such a closed loop fluidic control system for controlling a carding machine to produce slivers of uniform weight.
- a still further object of the present invention is to provide such a closed loop fluidic control system for controlling a carding machine wherein at least a 2 to 1 reduction in sliver weight variations is obtainable over that heretofore possible from prior art systems.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to pro vide such a closed loop fluidic control system which is characterized by reliability of operation, speed of response, and relatively long life.

- Pneumatic actuator means are operated by the pneumatic control means in accord with the pneumatic output signals received by thelatter from the fluidie signal means.
- Means are provided interconnecting the pneumatic actuator means to the speed transmission drive means of the carding machine whereby when the parameter of the sliver being monitored is of a first magnitude the pneumatic actuator means effectuates a first change in the speed transmis sion drive means thereby reducing the speed of the carding machine and when the parameter of the sliver being monitored is of a second magnitude the pneumatic actuator means effectuates a second change in the speed transmission drive means thereby increasing the speed of the carding machine.

- the control system shown is capable of controlling the operation of a textile machine (elements of which are shown in the drawing) to ensure the production therefrom of strand-like material 110 uniformly'having a desired parameter.
- the closed loop fluidic control system 10 preferably includes a fluid supply filter-regulator portion 11.
- the fluid supply filterregulator portion 11 receives a fluid such as air under suitable pressure through pipe means 13 from a suitable fluid power supply (not shown).
- a suitable fluid power supply not shown.
- the air may be supplied from a suitable shop air system commonly available in most industrial plants.
- shop air shop air
- the fluid power supply for the closed loop fluidic control system may be supplied from any other source such as a self-contained bottled supply of air, etc.
- the fluid power supply is fed to a first filter means 14 which includes a coarse filter which functions to remove large size, normally solid impurities which may be present in the fluid flow from the power supply.
- a pressure regulator 16 preferably suitably equipped with an exposed pressure gage 17.
- the fluid being supplied from the power supply source is at a pressure in the order of 100 psi.
- the pressure regulator 16 functions to reduce the pressure of the fluid flow to a predetermined operating pressure of approximately 60 psi.
- the pressure regulator 16 serves to dampen any wide variations in supply pressure which might otherwise occur. That is, the pressure regulator 16 is capable of maintaining the fluid flow therefrom at substantially a uniform pressure.
- fluidic signal means 28 further includes an output means 29, a first signal output means 30, a second signal output means 31, and preferably a pair of indicating lights 32 and 33, respectively.
- components housed within the enclosure for fluidic signal means 28 are the components (not shown) of a fluid signal generating and amplifying circuits of the type which is described and illustrated in copending patent application, Ser. No. 130,635, filed Apr. 2, 1971 in the name of H.
- sensor means 34 preferably comprises what is commonly referred to in the art as a trumpet sensor. That is, sensor means 34 takes the form of a cylindrically shaped, hollow member capable of receiving strandlike material 110 such as a sliver produced by a carding machine. Further as illustrated in the drawing the sens'or means 34 may be provided at one end thereof with a funnel-shaped guide 36 to assist in inserting and guiding the strand-like material as it passes through the hollow interior of the sensor means 34.
- the mode of operation of the sensor means 34 is as set forth in the following description thereof.
- One end of a continuous length of strand-like material 110 is inserted into the funnel-shaped end 36 of sensor head 34.
- fluid supplied through pipe means 35 is blown thereagainst.
- air is the fluid being supplied to sensor means 34, the air is permitted to exit to the atmosphere from either end of the sensor means 34.
- the pressure of the fluid in the pipe means 35 varies in accordance with the resistance that the fluid encounters in its passage through the sensor means 34.
- the amount of resistance which the fluid encounters is directly related to the dimensional parameters of the strand-like material passing through sensor means 34.
- the back pressure in the pipe means 35 it is possible by measuring the back pressure in the pipe means 35 to detect variations in the dimensional parameters of the strand-like material. More particularly, in accord with the present invention, it is possible to measure variations in the density of a sliver as it passes through sensor means 34. These variations are sensed in terms of the back pressure in pipe means 35 and generate corresponding signals in fluidic signal means 28. Normally it is found desirable to also amplify these signals before they leave the fluidic signal means 28. As noted hereinabove the fluid signal generating and amplifying circuitry described in the aforereferenced copending patent application may be employed to accomplish the above-described functions.
- fluidic signal means 28 is provided with a first signal output means 30 and a second signal output means 31.
- first signal output means 30 When the density of the sliver passing through sensor means 34 is sensed to be of a first magnitude, a corresponding signal reflecting the existence of this condition is generated and amplified by fluidic signal means 28.
- This signal is then sent from first signal output means 30 through pipe means 37 to the-input port 33 of a first three-way valve 39.
- one of the lights 32 and 33 is illuminated to provide a visual indication that the density of the sliver has varied in a first direction from the predetermined desired magnitude.
- the circuitry of fluidic signal means 28 is conditioned such that a signal will be generated when the density of the sliver is sensed to be less than a predetermined desired magnitude and such that another signal will be generated when the density of the sliver is sensed to be more than the predetermined desired magnitude. Further, when the density of the sliver is of the predetermined desired magnitude no signal is generated by the fluidic signal means 28 and therefore no signal is transmitted to either three-way valve 39 or three-way valve 42. It should also be noted that only one of the aforesaid three conditions will exist at any given time.
- the three-way valves 39 and 42 employed in the closed loop fluidic control system are each valves of the type which are capable of accepting a low pressure fluid signal. Such valves are well-known in the art and accordingly it is not deemed necessary for an understanding of the present invention that the construction of these valves be further described herein or illustrated in the drawing for this application.
- each of the three-way valves 39 and 42 further includes a supply port 43 and 44, respectively, and an output port 45 and 46, respectively.
- the supply ports 43 and 44 are interconnected by means of pipe means 47.
- the supply flow for the three-way valves 39 and 42 is provided from the power supply source (not shown) as is employed to supply fluid to the fluidic signal means 28.
- the fluid which leaves pressure regulator 16 flows through pipe means 13 to junction 19 whereat a portion of the fluid flows through pipe means 22 to second filter means 23 and therefrom through pipe means 24, junction 25 and pipe means 26 to inlet means 27 of fluidic signal means 28.
- the other portion of the fluid flows from junction 19 through pipe means 20 to oiler 21. It is this latter portion of the fluid which is supplied to the supply ports of the three-way valves 39 and 42. More specifically, this latter portion of the fluid which has oil entrained therein as it flows through the oiler 21 flows through pipe means 48 to junction 49 whereat pipe means 48 is joined to pipe means 50, through pipe means 50 to junction 51 and therefrom through pipe means 52 to junction 53 whereat pipe means 52 is joined to pipe means 47. From pipe means 47 the fluid flows through supply ports 43 and 44 into three-way valves 39 and 42, respectively.
- outlet ports 45 and 46 of three-way valves 39 and 42, respectively, are each connected by means of pipe means 54 and 55, respectively, to an actuator means 56.
- the latter actuator means 56 in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the invention comprises a pneumatic actuator, i.e., an air cylinder housing a piston-like member 57 having one end thereof suitably affixed to a lever 58 such as to permit some degree of movement relative thereto.
- the piston-like member 57 is suitably mounted in the pneumatic actuator means 56 such that when fluid flows from outlet port 46 of three-way valve 42 through pipe means to the actuator means 56, the fluid causes the piston-like member 57 to move inwardly into the actuator means 56.
- lever 58 is suitably connected to lever 61 which has one end pivotably mounted to a fixed support 62 and hsan idler pulley 63 movably supported at its other end.
- the idler pulley 63 coacts with the variable speed drive transmission 64 of a textile machine (elements of which are shown in the drawing) in a manner to be described with more particularity hereinafter.
- the speed drive transmission 64 consists of a fixed V-belt pulley 65 driven from the doffer shaft 66, and which in turn through V-belt 67 drives a variable pitch pulley 68 which has its shaft 68a connected to variable speed means 68b through suitable gearing (not shown).
- Doffer shaft 66 is connected to constant speed delivery means 66a through suitable gearing (not shown).
- Variable speed feed means 68b, constant speed delivery means 66a and other means inserted therebetween at the breakaway 112 in material are provided by any well known standard machine such as a carding machine of a type shown in U.S. Pat. No. 3,644,964 or any other suitable type of machine.
- the idler pulley 63 is mounted on the end of lever 61 so as to extend between the drive V-belt pulley 65 and the variable pitch V-belt pulley 68.
- idler pulley 63 is actuated by pneumatic actuator means 56 such as to engage and press against the V-belt 67 forcing the latter to change path configuration changing the variable pitch V-belt pulley contact with the V-belt to a varying radius thereby increasing or decreasing the speed ratio between the variable pitch pulley 68 and the fixed pitch pulley 65 and thus respectively between feed rollers 68b and constant speed rollers 66a thereby causing a corresponding change in a characteristic of strand like material 1 10 passing therethrough which characteristic is monitored by sensor means 34.
- a hydraulic snubber 69 is suitably attached in a manner wellknown in the art to the pneumatic actuator means 56.
- the snubber 69 comprises an air actuated locking piston (not shown) which functions to limit the extent of movement of the piston-like member 57.
- the snubber 69 has associated therewith a stop check valve 70 which in turn is controlled by a three-way valve 71 to which it is connected by pipe means 72.
- the threeway valve 71 is preferably of the type capable of accepting a high pressure fluid signal. Inasmuch as the construction of such valves is conventional and is wellknown to those skilled in the art, it is not deemed necessary to include herein any detailed description thereof or illustration thereof apart from the description which follows immediately hereinafter.
- the threeway valve 71 includes a supply port 73, a signal input port 74 and an output port 75. Referring to the drawing, it can be seen therefrom that fluid is supplied to supply port 73 of three-way valve 71 from oiler 21 through pipe means 48,junction 49, pipe means 50 and junction 51. Further it can be seen that the signal input port 73 of three-way valve 71 is connected through pipe means 76 and junction 77 to pipe means 54 and thereby to the output port 45 of three-way valve 39, and that pipe means 72 connects output port 75 of three-way valve 71 to the inlet of stop check valve 70.
- the small amount of oil which is added to the portion of the fluid which flows to three-way valves 39, 42 and 71, stock check valve 70, hydraulic snubber 69 and pneumatic actuator means 56 by the oiler 21 as the fluid flows therethrough is designed to satisfy at least in part the lubrication requirements of the various operating components of the aforementioned valves, snubber and actuator means.
- the oiler 21 and its attendant function of entraining oil in the fluid passing therethrough may be omitted if so desired.
- an adjustment means 78 is preferably provided.
- the adjustment means 78 comprises a needle valve (not shown) by means of which the desired rate at which piston-like member 57 moves may be preset. Further by rotation of the knurled knob 79 this velocity of movement rate control may be periodically adjusted as needed.
- strand-like material from an industrial machine such as a sliver from a textile machine is made to pass through sensor means 34 wherein one of the dimensional parameters of the material such as for example the density thereof is continuously monitored as it passes through the sensor means 34.
- the fluidic signal means 28 which senses the back pressure in pipe means 35 of the fluid being supplied to sensor means 34.
- pressure of the fluid in the pipe means 35 varies in accordance with the resistance that the fluid encounters in its passage through the sensor means 34. Since the amount of resistance which the fluid encounters is directly related to the dimensional parameters of the strand-like material passing through sensor means 34, it is possible by measuring the back pressure in the pipe means 35 to detect variations in the dimensional parameters such as the density of the strand-like material. When the density of the strand-like material passing through sensor means 34 is sensed to be of a first magnitude, a corresponding signal reflecting the existence of this condition is generated and amplified by fluidic signal means 28. This signal is then sent from first signal output means 30 to the pneumatic control means including three-way valve 39.
- fluidic signal means 28 when the density of the strand-like material passing through sensor means 34 is sensed to be of a second magnitude, a corresponding signal reflecting the existence of this condition is generated and amplified by fluidic signal means 28. This signal is then sent from second signal output means 31 to the pneumatic control means including three-way valve 42. Further, when the density of the strand-like material is of the predetermined desired magnitude no signal is generated by the fluidic signal means 28 and therefore no signal is transmitted to the pneumatic control means. In addition to providing the aforedescribed digital pneumatic output, the fluid signal means 28 also provides a visual electrical output by means of lights 32 and 33.
- the operation of lights 32 and 33 is such that one of these lights is illuminated when an output is provided at first signal output means 30 while the other light is illuminated when an output is provided at second signal output means 31.
- the aforesaid digital pneumatic output signals sent from fluidic signal means 28 are utilized to drive the pneu matic actuator means 56 through the pneumatic control means including the low to high pressure three-way pneumatic valves 39 and 42.
- the actuator means 56 is connected to the variable speed transmission in such a manner that when the density of the strand-like material is sensed to be above a desired magnitude a first signal is sent to the pneumatic control means which actuates the actuator means 56 to cause the latter to effect a.
- a second signal is sent to the pneumatic control means which actuates the actuator means 56 to cause the latter to effect a change in the speed transmission to produce an increase in the speed of variable speed feed means 68b.
- a hydraulic snubber 69 with settable velocity rate control is attached to the actuator means 56 to allow adjustment of system response to achieve a stable system.
- a stop check valve is preferably used in association with the hydraulic snubber 69 to prevent any motion of the pneumatic actuator means 56 when no signal is present from the fluidic signal means 28.
- each of pipe means 26 and pipe means 50 has an unconnected end 260 and 50a, respectively. It is contemplated within the scope of the present invention that the end 26a of pipe means 26 as well as the end 50a of pipe means 50 may be employed to connect the power supply source (not shown) to other installafluidic control system for controlling the operation of a machine to produce therefrom strand-like material uniformlyhaving the desired parameter. Further, the mode of operation of the closed loop fluidic control system of the instant invention is such that changes in the operating conditions of the machine are effectuated in response to the sensing of variations in the parameter of the strand-like material being monitored.
- the closed loop fluidic control system is capable of controlling a carding machine to produce slivers of uniform weight.
