Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fabric feeding device for laying-up machines in the ready-made garment industry. It is particularly suitable for elastic fabrics in the warp or weft direction, or knit fabrics, both single, double or tubular.
  • These devices which have also the task to pull the fabric without slipping, are usually formed by a free roller whose axle is mounted on an arm which can turn by 180 around the puller roller.
  • the device according to the present patent application is characterized by the fact that it is formed by the two driving rollers, which are parallel and turning one in the opposite direction as the other, mounted on a parallelogram-like supporting frame which turns around a central axle, which is parallel to the axles of the mentioned rollers.
  • the aim of the present patent application is that of making it possible the S-like passage of the fabric around the two counter-rotating rollers at any position the piece of fabric fed by the feeding roller lies in respect to the said rollers.
  • a further aim ofthe present patent application is that of getting a safe pulling of the fabric both single or tubular, so as to obtain a uniform spreading without ruffles or tensions. This is obtained by means of a compact device which is less cumbersome than the well known kind with the roller on a turning arm.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of a machine on which the device of the present patent application is mounted
  • FIG. 2 shows a view of a schematic plan of the driving devices of the machine in the FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 shows a side view of the device according to the present patent application illustrating the course a plane 1 with provision for feeding fabric 3 from cylinder 2.
  • a small guiding roller 4 or its counterpart 4 on the opposite side of the cylinder drives the fabric 3' to the puller device according to the present patent application.
  • the pulley is made up essentially by two rollers 5 and 5' when are parallel and spaced apart. These rollers 5 and 5 are counter-rotating and are able to invert their position by reason of being hinged on a central fulcrum 6.
  • a driving device controls the forward movement of the driving wheels 7 of the machine and at the same time pulls the two rollers 5 and 5 by means of a transmission system which will be better explained later on.
  • the fabric coming out of rollers 5 and 5' passes through a sort of hopper 28 which spreads it without tensions on the plane 1 in a succession of layers.
  • the fabric is cut at the end of each run of the machine by cutting devices mounted in the said hopper 28.
  • the laying-up machine is a well known machine and can take on various construction forms, which can also be different from the one shown in the FIGS. 1 and 2, on which the feeding device can be mounted according to the present patent application.
  • FIG. 3 shows the path of travel of the fabric 3 around the rollers 5 and 5 moving in the direction of the arrows F and F, respectively.
  • FIG. 4 With reference to the FIG. 4 there is shown a longitudinal and axial section of the two rollers 5 and 5 with the related control devices.
  • a pin 9 is free to rotate.
  • a control device for example a chain wheel 8 driven by the driving devices which carry out also the forward movement of the machine along the plane 1.
  • a gear 10 On the other end of the pin 9 and outside of the coupling 6 there is keyed a gear 10 which controls a gear wheel which is in turn keyed on one end of the axle of the cylinder 5.
  • the two rollers are supported in a way that they can rotate at their ends on two brackets 16 and 17 which are connected together by'means of the tie rods 18 and 19 which are coaxial to the axles of the cylinders 5 and 5, respectively.
  • the two brackets 16 and 17 and the relative rods 18 and 19 form a'fixed parallelogram which can rotate on itself around its own central axis.
  • the axis of the parallelogram coincides with the mid line of the axles of the two cylinders 5 and 5' and also with the axis of the two parts 6 and 6.
  • the two rollers 5 and 5 can thus rotate together as indicated in the FIG. 3, from the position A to the position B. This is useful to facilitate the insertion of the fabric 3 coming from the cylinder 2 to the rollers 5 and 5 and to give it an S-line way as shown in the Figure. This operation is usually called insertion of the fabric into the machine and it is made in the following way.
  • the gear can longitudinally run for a certain stretch along the pin 9, for example, there can be constructed some grooves on it to which proper slidable guides of the gear itself correspond so that when the handle 22 is pulled there occurs an axial slide of the gear 1(1 thus freeing it from the gear wheel 11.
  • the wheel is free and cannot drive the cylinders 5 and 5 any more.
  • the machine can thus move along the plane 1 without laying the fabric 3, for example, in the case in which the laying of the fabric must occur during one run only of the machine while the other is empty.
  • the cylinders are again coupled and they are set in motion.
  • a fabric feeding device for laying-up machines of the type for laying out multiple layers of fabric for cutting into garment sections comprising:
  • said parallelogram-like frame includes opposed end brackets interconnected by spaced tie rods extending coaxial with the axes of said puller rollers.
