An air source confluence ring device for a circular knitting machine

Abstract

The invention relates to an air source converge ring device for a circular weft knitting machine. The air source converge ring device comprises a converge ring body and an air flow guide device, and the air flow guide device is arranged on the converge ring body and connected with an external execution device. The converge ring body is internally provided an air flow guide hole communicated with an external air supply device, the air flow guide device is internally provided with a hollow portion, the air flow guide hole is communicated with the hollow portion of the air flow guide device, and the hollow portion of the air flow guide device is communicated with the external execution device to realize air supply.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an air source confluence ring device for a circular knitting machine. Background technique [0002] The manifold is a fixture that can bring together multiple fluid channels, also known as the air source distribution area, valve plate, valve seat, and air circuit board. The English product name is manifold. In the pneumatic control circuit, centralized air supply and exhaust can be realized, and the occupied space can be saved, because the working principle of the manifold is similar to some of the principles of the device of the present invention. In this context, the term "collector ring" is generally a composite device of yarn feeding rings of pointer looms, preferably circular, machines capable of producing knitted , the air source is supplied to the cylinders of the machine and is fully compatible with the necessary yarn feeding functions of the machine. Nowadays, the automatic control technology of knitting computerized...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Existing devices that require cylinder control and execution all use air pipes to deliver gas to achieve the purpose of controlling the execution of the cylinders. However, since the cylinder control devices of the circular weft knitting machine are plurally installed on the circular weft knitting machine, there are many ventilation pipes and long ventilation pipelines. The number of pipe joints is also large, which will cause many problems: 1. The current pipeline air source distribution structure is prone to air leakage, resulting in energy loss; 2. The long ventilation pipeline causes uneven pressure and uneven action delay on the cylinder control actuator. Stable; 3. Too many air pipes, long pipes and entanglement of braided yarns will inevitably bring great inconvenience to the operation; 4. Many air pipe joints occupy the limited operating space of the machine; 5. Protruding pipe joints are easy to hang cotton wool flying debris

In summary, the problems mentioned above have brought many problems to the disassembly, repair and maintenance of the cylinder, and due to the uneven pressure of the air source, the movement of the cylinder is out of control and wrong, which in turn produces fabric defects, wastes precious yarn raw materials, increases production costs, and is very expensive. Difficult to install, set up and maintain, or slow to install, set up and maintain

Moreover, considering that the computerized jacquard circular weft machine includes a plurality of devices for feeding the cylinders, which are arranged around or along the needle cylinder mechanism, it is known that the setting of the computerized jacquard circular weft machine is more susceptible to installation errors, resulting in Malfunctions and non-functioning conditions
