Definitions
- the present invention relates to a combing machine for spinning preparation with a machine frame in which at least two combing heads are arranged and having a main drive motor for driving the combing heads.
- DE 10 2012 011 030 A1 discloses a combing head of a combing machine for use in spinning preparation, and the combing head has a drive input shaft as an essential structural component, which drives a pincer gear, the pincer gear serving to drive a pincer apparatus. Furthermore, the gear unit has detaching cylinders, and the detaching cylinders are arranged at the gear output of a planetary gear. The rotary movement of a central shaft is coupled to the gripper shaft via a rocker arm and a cam gear so that the latter performs an oscillating movement, and at the same time the central shaft also drives the planetary gear for the detaching cylinder, with the central shaft being coupled to the drive input shaft via a gear stage.
- the combing head consequently has shafts and working cylinders coupled to the shafts and acting in different ways, which perform an oscillating movement, and in particular the detaching cylinders perform a so-called vocational stepping movement.
- the circular comb shaft with a circular comb roller attached to it performs a rotational movement in one direction of rotation with fluctuating speed, which results in a discontinuous power consumption for a main drive motor from other, discontinuously rotating working cylinders with acceleration and deceleration phases over the comb play and these driving or receiving shafts of the transmission results.
- Modern combing machines have, for example, eight combing heads which are arranged in a row next to one another in or on a machine frame.
- the combing heads are operated synchronously with one another, so that some shafts, in particular the discontinuously operated shafts, can be coupled together so that they are designed to be continuous, so that several combing heads share common shafts with one another. This reduces the design effort and ensures that the combing heads run synchronously.
- the same can be provided for the detaching cylinder.
- EP 2 397 584 B1 shows a combing head with detaching cylinders which are each driven by two synchronously operated electric motors.
- the dynamics in the discontinuous rotational movement of the detaching cylinder can be increased, and on each side of the detaching cylinder there is a gear, via which the respective electric motor is operatively connected to the detaching cylinder in a driving manner.
- the power consumption of the main drive motor is characterized by a discontinuous curve due to the pilgrim step movement, the detaching cylinder and the oscillating movement of the nipper shaft, which, however, is repeated in the same way for each comb cycle.
- the deceleration and acceleration of the shafts and the differently acting working cylinders applied to them result in a characteristic curve, with the power consumption being required both to generate a torque in a first direction of rotation and to generate a torque in an opposite direction of rotation of the motor .
- the result is an overall high power consumption and a high energy requirement for operating a combing machine, in particular with a number of combing heads.
- the reason for a poor balance of power is also the inability to operate the main drive motor in an operating optimum, in particular with regard to its torque, since the output torque changes periodically and repeatedly over each comb play.
- the object of the invention is an optimized operation of a combing machine with the lowest possible power consumption.
- several combing heads are to be operated in a row next to one another without increasing the design complexity for coupling the combing heads to one another.
- the invention provides that a main shaft that is operatively connected to the main drive motor is provided, with the main shaft driving the at least two combing heads, with the combing heads being operatively connected to the main shaft in such a way that when the main drive motor is in operation, the combing games of the combing heads run out of phase with one another .
- Individual combing heads can be operated further to a first group of combing heads in a first phase position and a second group of combing heads can be operated in a second phase position, the groups being drivingly connected to the main drive motor.
- the first group of combing heads and the second Group of combing heads are drivingly connected in particular via a common gear with the main drive motor.
- the core idea of the invention is a phase offset in the combing of at least two combing heads or of a first group of combing heads to the combing of a second group of combing heads, so that a power flow can result via the operative connections of the groups to one another, which can at least partially compensate each other.
- the acceleration phase and thus the proportion of power consumption for accelerating the first combing head or the first group of combing heads can be partially fed by a torque that is generated by a deceleration phase of the combing games of the second combing head or the second group of combing heads.
- the power curve is smoothed, so that the total power requirement for operating the combing machine is reduced and the main drive motor can be operated at or near an operating optimum.
- the first combing head and the second combing head or the first gear and the second gear for driving the groups of combing heads are coupled to one another with particular advantage.
- excess power for example in a deceleration phase of essential working cylinders in the first combing head or in the first group of combing heads, can be used to execute an acceleration phase of the essential working cylinders of the second combing head or the second group of combing heads.
- a main shaft which couples the first combing head and the second combing head or the first gear and the second gear to one another via the main shaft.
- This main shaft does not run through the combing heads themselves, but in particular the main shaft runs past the combing heads and preferably only connects the two gears to one another.
- a single gear can also be provided, from which two main shafts running out of phase with one another are led out, with the gear being arranged in particular between the two combing heads or groups of combing heads to be driven out of phase.
- the main shafts then have an operative connection to one another, via which the first and second combing heads are coupled to one another.
- the phase offset can be adjusted mechanically rigidly with particular advantage via the main shaft.
- the main shaft can have an adjusting means for this purpose, through which a part of the main shaft connected to the first transmission is relative to one with the part of the main shaft connected to the second gear can be adjusted about a shaft axis.
- the adjusting means can be on one or both gears, so that there is only one main part of the main shaft, which extends between the adjusting means and the main drive motor.
- the adjusting means consequently makes it possible to set the phase offset, and the adjusting means can be equipped with actuators in order to change the phase offset, for example via a control unit of the combing machine, either when it is at a standstill or even during operation. If the adjusting means is designed in such a way that the phase shift can be adjusted via a control unit, in particular during operation of the combing machine, the phase shift can also be monitored via a control unit so that the power consumption of the combing machine remains minimal.
- the first gear is arranged at a first end of the row of combing heads arranged side by side and that the second gear is arranged at a second, opposite end of the row of combing heads arranged side by side.
- the first gear and the second gear enclose the entire unit of the combing heads between them, with the first group of combing heads from mutually adjacent combing heads having a left-hand part and the second group of combing heads from mutually adjacent combing heads having a right-hand part of the row of all combing heads arranged side by side in the machine frame.
- the groups of combing heads operated with a phase offset are formed on two sides, and the row of combing heads forms a transverse axis of the machine frame, which forms the longitudinal extent of a combing machine in a manner known per se.
- the two groups of the combing heads operated with a phase offset to one another thus form a left and a right part of the row, and the left part of the combing heads, for example four, is operated out of phase with a right part of the combing heads, also for example four .
- the first group of combing heads has a common first drive input shaft that is operatively connected to the first gear
- the second group of combing heads has a common second drive input shaft that is operatively connected to the second gear.
- the combing heads each have a nipper shaft, it also being conceivable to design the nipper shaft of the first group of combing heads as a common nipper shaft, and the nipper shafts of the second group of combing heads can be designed as a further common nipper shaft.
- the oscillating movement of the first tong shaft can run in the opposite direction to the oscillating movement of the second tong shaft.
- the combing heads also each have a circular comb shaft, the circular comb shafts of the first group of combing heads being connected to form a common first circular comb shaft and the circular comb shafts of the second group of combing heads being connected to a common second circular comb shaft. Consequently, the circular comb shafts can also compensate one another, which may be coupled to the gripper shafts and to the shafts of the detaching cylinders, so that the coupling of the circular comb shafts can also be used to compensate for the operation of discontinuously operated cylinders of the respective group of combing heads.
- the first gear and the second gear can either only drive the respective drive input shaft of the combing heads or the first and second gears are designed in such a way that they already drive the respective shafts of the combing heads individually in groups.
- the first and the second gear have a prestressed toothing in order to enable a backlash-free load change.
- a prestressed gearing of the gears enables an immediate change of torque without creating backlash.
- the preloaded toothing can be done, for example, using the principle of a three-pinion clamping or the like.
- phase offset between the nip clearances of the first group of combing heads and the second group of combing heads can be changed and adjusted as desired, and it is also conceivable that the phase offset is continuously adjusted or adjusted depending on a minimum power consumption as a reference variable during operation of the combing machine is readjusted, for example by measuring or monitoring the average power consumption.
- the machine frame has a left cheek part and a right cheek part, the first gear being arranged in or on the left cheek part and the second gear being arranged in or on the right cheek part.
- the first group of combing heads is thus located adjacent to the left cheek portion and the second group of combing heads is located adjacent to the right cheek portion.
- no shafts or other transmission means extend between the left group and the right group of combing heads, and only the main shaft for coupling the two gears extends over the entire width of the machine frame and consequently also between the left cheek part and the right cheek part.
- the drive input shaft, the nipper shaft and/or the circular comb shafts and/or other gear shafts of the combing heads of the first and second group are aligned with one another. It is also advantageously possible that the drive input shaft, the nipper shaft and/or the circular comb shafts and/or other gear shafts of the combing heads of the first group and the second group are offset from one another in their directions of extension. This results in only minimal vibrations, in particular balancing shafts can be provided, which are coupled, for example, with the parts of the main shaft between the first and the second gear so that only minimal or no torque arises about a longitudinal axis or a vertical axis of the combing machine.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a gear unit with a combing machine, only the essential components of the gear unit for forming a combing head being numerically designated,
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic view of a combing machine with combing heads arranged in groups, which are driven out of phase by means of a common gear
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic view of a combing machine with combing heads arranged in groups and operated via associated gears and
- FIG. 4 shows a diagram showing the power consumption of the groups of combing heads of the main drive motor during operation of the combing machine designed according to the invention over time.
- the combing head 11 according to FIG. 1 is driven via a drive input shaft 18, the combing head 11 having a further central shaft 23 which is driven via a gear stage with the drive input shaft 18.
- the drive input shaft 18 is thereby continuously rotated.
- On the central shaft 23 there is a pincer gear 26 which is followed by a pincer shaft 19 which is driven by a rocker arm 24 and which finally drives an upper pincer gear 30 .
- an upper nipper and a lower nipper of the nipper apparatus of the combing head 11 can be operated via a nipper output shaft 29 and on the nipper shaft 19.
- auxiliary transmission 27 Further transmission shafts of an auxiliary transmission 27 are connected to the drive input shaft 18, via which further shafts or rollers can be operated, in particular for transporting the fibrous web after the combing process.
- a table calender roller, a delivery roller and the like can be driven via the secondary gear 27, so that the drive power of a main drive motor can also be used for this.
- the rotational mass moment of inertia increases, which means that the transmission runs more smoothly.
- the dynamics of the oscillating masses can be better compensated for by the central drive.
- the combing head 11 also has a planetary gear 28, via which the detaching cylinders 22 are driven in a successive stepping movement.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of a combing machine 100 with a machine frame 10 comprising lateral cheek parts 21 and with, for example, eight combing heads 11 which are lined up next to one another between the cheek parts 21 . All combing heads 11 are driven by a single main drive motor 12 via a central gear 5 arranged centrally according to this exemplary embodiment, with the combing heads 11 being driven in groups and divided in equal numbers to the left and right of gear 5 .
- a first group is labeled I and a second group is labeled II.
- the two groups I and II of the combing heads 11 are distributed equally in number on both sides of the gear 5, so that the gear 5 is arranged centrally between the groups I, II of the combing heads 11.
- the transmission 5 is in operative connection with the main drive motor 12 by means of a main shaft 15 .
- the main drive motor 12 drives the single transmission 5 directly, with the transmission 5 driving the individual shafts 18, 19 and 20 for the working cylinders.
- the transmission 5 is designed in such a way that the shafts 18, 19 and 20, shown as an example and migrating into the combing heads 11, are driven out of phase with one another.
- the illustration thus shows an example of the coupling of the combing heads 11 via the output side of the gear 5 and thus via the drive input shaft 18 and via the nipper shaft 19 and the circular comb shaft 20.
- the drive input shaft 18 is thus divided into a first drive input shaft 18L, which is coupled with the first gear 5, and a second drive input shaft 18R also coupled to the gear 5.
- the caliper shaft 19 is divided into a first caliper shaft 19L and a second caliper shaft 19R, and the first caliper shaft 19L is on a first is coupled to the transmission 5 on an opposite second side, and the second caliper shaft 19R is coupled to the transmission 5 .
- the crested shaft 20 is divided into a first crested shaft 20L and a second crested shaft 20R for connection to the transmission 5.
- the illustration shows only an example of a coupling of the individual shafts of the combing heads 11 with the gear 5, which can also affect other shafts, for example the shafts on which the detaching cylinders 22 are applied or with which they are driven.
- FIG. 3 shows a modified embodiment of a combing machine 100 with a machine frame 10 and with eight combing heads 11, again by way of example
- combing heads 11 are also driven by a single main drive motor 12 , the combing heads 11 being divided into groups and driven by two gears 5 .
- a first group I of combing heads 11 is drivingly connected to the main drive motor 12 via a first gear 13
- a second group II of combing heads 11 is drivingly connected to the main drive motor 12 via a second gear 14 .
- the two groups I and II of the combing heads 11 are located between two outside cheek parts 21 of the machine frame 10 .
- the main drive motor 12 drives both the first gear 13 directly and the second gear 14 directly by means of a main shaft 15 .
- the main shaft 15 therefore extends between the left cheek part and the right cheek part and connects the left gear
- main shaft 15 there is an adjusting means 16, via which a phase position of a first part 15L of the main shaft 15 can be changed in relation to a phase position of a second part 15R of the main shaft 15.
- the phase position is changed around a shaft axis 17, which is the axis of rotation of the Main shaft 15 forms.
- the illustration shows an example of the coupling of the combing heads 11 to the gears 13 and 14 via the drive input shaft 18 and via the nipper shaft 19 and the circular comb shaft 20.
- the drive input shaft 18 is thus divided into a first drive input shaft 18L, which is coupled to the first gear 13, and a second drive input shaft 18R, which is coupled to the transmission 14.
- the caliper shaft 19 is divided into a first caliper shaft 19L and a second caliper shaft 19R, and the first caliper shaft 19L is coupled to the transmission 13 and the second gun shaft 19R is coupled to the transmission 14 .
- the crested shaft 20 is divided into a first crested shaft 20L and a second crested shaft 20R for connection to the gear 13 and the gear 14, respectively.
- each combing head 11 can only be connected via the respectively grouped combing heads 11 common drive input shafts 18, each combing head 11 forming a separate unit, as shown in FIG.
- the illustration shows only an example of a coupling of the individual shafts of the combing heads 11 with the gears 13 and 14, which can also affect other shafts, for example the shafts on which the detaching cylinders 22 are applied or with which they are driven.
- the first group I of combing heads 11 and the second group II of combing heads 11 can also be arranged nested one inside the other, so that the combing heads 11 operated out of phase are always located next to one another.
- combing heads 11 can be arranged next to one another and operated out of phase, but which are each driven by a different shaft part 15L, 15R.
- a sequence of the combing heads 15 could arise which, with 8 combing heads 11, are driven according to the group allocation l-ll - l-ll - l-ll - l-ll and so on.
- An even smoother running can be achieved in this way, in accordance with the effect of the smooth running of an 8-cylinder or 12-cylinder piston engine.
- FIG. 4 shows an example of the power consumption P of the main drive motor 12 over time t.
- the graphs show two power consumptions PL and PR, and the power consumption PL corresponds to the first, left group of combing heads 11 and the power consumption PR corresponds to the second, right group of combing heads 11.
- the course of the power consumptions PL and PR shows, these compensate each other above the zero line and below the zero line, so that, for example, acceleration phases of the first group I of combing heads 11 can compensate for deceleration phases of the second group II of combing heads 11 .
- acceleration phases of the first group I of combing heads 11 can compensate for deceleration phases of the second group II of combing heads 11 .
- there is a considerable saving in the overall power consumption since the movement phases of the combing heads can mutually compensate for their power requirements both in terms of power consumption and power output (acceleration and deceleration).
