Automatic service device for an annular spinning machine, annular spinning machine, and a method for controlling groups of handling devices

Abstract

The invention relates to a service robot of a ring spinning machine, arranged displaceably along a row of spinning stations with an option of stopping at a selected spinning station requiring a service operation, whereby the service robot is provided with groups of handling means (3, 4, 5, 6) coupled to drives. The service robot (1) is arranged as a vertical frame, which is provided with at leasttwo vertical linear guides (2, 18, 20, 21), whereby at least one of them is associated with at least two movable groups (3, 4, 5, 6) of handling means to perform service operations at the spinning station. The invention also relates to a ring spinning machine with a service robot, which is arranged displaceably along a row of spinning stations with an option to stop at a selected spinning stationrequiring a service operation. In addition, the invention relates to a method for controlling a service robot or its spinning means.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a service robot for a ring spinning machine, which is displaceably arranged along a row of spinning stations, which can optionally stop at a selected spinning station, whereby , the maintenance robot is provided with a set of operating devices coupled to the transmission. [0002] The invention also relates to a ring spinning machine with a maintenance robot displaceably arranged along a row of spinning stations, optionally stopping at selected spinning stations requiring maintenance operations. [0003] Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for controlling a group of handling devices of a maintenance robot of a ring spinning machine, wherein the movement of the group of handling devices is controlled in the vertical direction. Background technique [0004] The ring spinning machine comprises a row of spinning stations arranged next to each other, each of which comprises a roving drafting device, from which the proces...

Problems solved by technology

[0008] For example, EP 0 394 671 A2 discloses the use of a maintenance robot, the operating means of which are arranged in separate clamping on the holding elements and their transfer to the working position is carried out by the associated transmission members, which leads to an increase in the weight of the entire maintenance robot and increases its cost

[0009] DD3000111 describes an embodiment in which the vertical movement of the manipulator is carried out by means of a toothed belt arranged on a vertical guide in the housing of the maintenance robot, the vertical guide and the toothed belt being used to move only one Maintenance mechanism, which increases the complexity, weight and cost of maintaining automated mechanical equipment
