Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of twisting machines, and in particular to an inner yarn feeding system and method. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, the twisting operation of automotive tire cord, carpet yarn, industrial cord, etc. is usually completed by a direct twisting machine. However, the feeding raw silk package is very large, usually about 10 kg, which makes the work intensity of feeding the outer yarn, i.e., the yarn on the yarn rack, and the inner yarn, i.e., the spindle yarn, of the existing direct twisting equipment very high. It is intended to improve the existing twisting equipment so that it is suitable for replacing manual labor with robots for high-intensity and repetitive labor such as feeding and discharging yarn, which has become an important task in the current design improvement of direct twisting machines.
[0003] Chinese Patent Document CN212223191U discloses an outer yarn (yarn on the yarn rack) feeding system for a direct twisting machine, which can realize intelligent yarn feeding operation, greatly improve the operation efficiency, reduce the labor intensity, and reduce manual operation. However, the structure of this direct twisting machine still requires manual operation for the feeding of the inner yarn (spindle yarn). For example, in the existing direct twisting machine disclosed in CN102212905A, the spindle yarn is located in the spindle can, and the spindle can is usually composed of upper, middle, and lower parts, and the inner yarn tensioner is fixed in the upper can cover. When feeding the spindle yarn, it is necessary to manually remove the spindle can and then place the raw silk package on the spindle. Obviously, the work of feeding the inner yarn is very cumbersome, and because the installation position of the spindle of the direct twisting machine is very low, it is necessary for the operator to bend down to carry the yarn to complete the feeding work, which is quite labor-intensive for the operators of multi-station twisting equipment. There is no automatic yarn feeding scheme for the inner yarn in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

Detailed implementation manners
[0054] Embodiment 1:
[0055] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 , 6, 8 - 9, an inner yarn feeding system, which includes an avoidance mechanism 2 for avoiding the robotic arm 8, a spindle can 4 and an upper yarn robot 17;
[0056] The swing seat 201 of the avoidance mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the twisting machine frame 1, the swing seat 201 is rotatably connected to the swing arm 202, and a yarn evenness regulator 3 is provided at the free end of the swing arm 202. The avoidance mechanism 2 switches the yarn evenness regulator 3 between two states: being aligned with the axis of the spindle can 4 and leaving the outer edge of the spindle can 4;
[0057] The spindle can 4 is connected to the twisting machine frame 1, the spindle can 4 is located below one extreme position of the yarn evenness regulator 3, and the top of the spindle can 4 is open to facilitate the placement of the inner yarn package 9;
[0058] The above-mentioned yarn feeding robot 17 is provided with an AVG cart 10. A robotic arm 8 is arranged on the top of the AVG cart 10. The robotic arm 8 is used to grab the inner yarn package 9 and place the inner yarn package 9 into the spindle can 4 when the yarn aligner 3 is moved away from the outer edge of the spindle can 4 by the avoidance mechanism 2. With this structure, the automatic yarn feeding of the spindle can 4 by the yarn feeding robot 17 is realized, the labor intensity is reduced, and the degree of intelligence is improved. During use, the yarn feeding robot 17 runs near the working station of the twisting machine. The avoidance mechanism 2 swings to move the yarn aligner 3 away from the top of the spindle can 4. The yarn feeding robot 17 first takes out the reel from the spindle can 4, and then places the inner yarn package 9 into the spindle can 4.
[0059] Embodiment 2:
[0060] On the basis of Embodiment 1, the preferred solution is as Figure 3 shown. The structure of the yarn aligner 3 is: the first twisting seat 302 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 202. The first twisting frame 31 is rotatably connected to the first twisting seat 302. A first twisting disc 305 is arranged on the first twisting seat 302. A first outer yarn porcelain eye 313 for threading the outer yarn 7 is arranged at the outer edge position of the first twisting disc 305. A first inner yarn porcelain eye 314 for threading the inner yarn 6 is arranged at the central position of the first twisting disc 305. A yarn guiding tube 303 for combined twisting is arranged at the top position of the first twisting frame 31;
[0061] The inner yarn tension seat 306 is rotatably connected to the first twisting disc 305. The inner yarn tensioner 301 is fixedly connected to the inner yarn tension seat 306. A second magnetic attraction block 307 is arranged on the inner yarn tension seat 306;
[0062] A first magnetic attraction block 204 is arranged on the swing arm 202 through a fixing frame 203. The first magnetic attraction block 204 and the second magnetic attraction block 307 form a magnetic attraction fixing structure with a gap. The first magnetic attraction block 204 and the second magnetic attraction block 307 are a group of annular or strip-shaped magnets. At the mutually attracting ends, the magnetic properties of the first magnetic attraction block 204 and the second magnetic attraction block 307 are opposite to each other. With this structure, the yarn aligner 3 can move together with the swing arm 202, thus avoiding interference with the inner yarn feeding. Moreover, the tension of the inner yarn 6 can be applied and the combined twisting of the inner yarn 6 and the outer yarn 7 can be completed on the yarn aligner 3, as Figures 1 to 3As shown in [figure]. When twisting the yarn, the outer yarn 7 passes through the first outer yarn porcelain eye 313, and the inner yarn 6 passes through the first inner yarn porcelain eye 314 after passing around the inner yarn tensioner 301 and being tensioned. The two are twisted together at the position of the first twisting and combining post 304. The outer yarn 7 rotates at a speed of 3000 - 10000 revolutions per minute driven by the twisting spindle mechanism 5, driving the first twisting and combining frame 31 to rotate. The first magnetic attraction block 204 and the second magnetic attraction block 307 attract each other, fixing the inner yarn tension seat 306 without rotation. The inner yarn tensioner 301 is a prior art, for example, the structure described in the Chinese patent document CN20883208U, a component of an inner yarn tensioner and a spindle. Since the inner yarn tensioners 301 are all integrated on the yarn evenizer 3, the movement of the avoidance mechanism 2 can be realized.
[0063] Embodiment 3:
[0064] Based on Embodiment 1, the preferred solution is as Figure 4 , 5 In [figure], the structure of the yarn evenizer 3 is as follows: The second twisting and combining seat 308 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 202, the second twisting and combining frame 32 is rotatably connected to the second twisting and combining seat 308. At the bottom of the second twisting and combining frame 32, there is a second twisting and combining disc 309. At the outer edge position of the second twisting and combining disc 309, there is a second outer yarn porcelain eye 315 for passing through the outer yarn 7, and at the center position of the second twisting and combining disc 309, there is a second inner yarn porcelain eye 316 for passing through the inner yarn 6.
[0065] Above the second twisting and combining disc 309, there is a second twisting and combining post 312, and above the second twisting and combining post 312, there is a yarn guiding tube 303.
[0066] On the second twisting and combining post 312, there are a rotatable inner yarn winding wheel 310 and a rotatable outer yarn winding wheel 311. With this structure, compared with the structure of Embodiment 2, there is no need to additionally set up the inner yarn tension seat 306, the first magnetic attraction block 204, and the second magnetic attraction block 307, simplifying the structure.
[0067] In the preferred solution, a damping structure is provided inside the inner yarn winding wheel 310. The damping structure includes a felt bushing structure, a sliding bushing structure, or a magnetic damping structure. The provided damping structure is used to apply tension to the inner yarn 6.
[0068] Or the second inner yarn porcelain eye 316 is a one-way valve type inner yarn tensioner 322. The one-way valve type inner yarn tensioner 322 is an oval or circular pressure ball 324 arranged inside the second inner yarn porcelain eye 316. There is a compression spring 323 behind the pressure ball, and a threaded end cap 325 is also provided for adjusting the pressure of the compression spring. After the inner yarn 6 passes through the porcelain eye of the one-way valve type inner yarn tensioner 322, the pressure ball presses on the inner yarn 6 and applies tension to the inner yarn 6. The advantage of this solution is that the structure is simpler and the tension is adjustable.
[0069] The preferred solutions are as follows Figure 7 , 8 In the preferred solutions, a damping structure is provided inside the inner yarn winding wheel 310. The pin 321 is connected to the second doubling and twisting upright post 312. A first shaft sleeve 317 is provided on the pin 321. A second shaft sleeve 318 is provided inside the inner yarn winding wheel 310. The second shaft sleeve 318 is sleeved on the first shaft sleeve 317 with a gap therebetween. A magnetic attraction group 319 is provided on the second shaft sleeve 318. A magnetic attraction layer 320 is provided on the first shaft sleeve 317. A magnetic damping structure is formed between the magnetic attraction group 319 and the magnetic attraction layer 320. With this structure, a relatively smooth damping can be obtained.

An electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14 is provided on the twisting machine frame 1 near the rotation limit position of the swing arm 202. The electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14 in this example is an electromagnet. A structure coupled with the swing arm 202 or the yarn evenness regulator 3 is provided on the housing of the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14. The electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14 is used to temporarily adsorb the swing arm 202 or the yarn evenness regulator 3 and release the swing arm 202 or the yarn evenness regulator 3 after a period of time; the said period of time is sufficient for the yarn taking robot 17 to complete the operation of taking out the bobbin and putting it into the inner yarn package 9.
[0072] The swing arm 202 is connected to the swing seat 201 through a rotating shaft 208. A return spring 205 is provided on the rotating shaft 208 for resetting the yarn evenness regulator 3 at the free end of the swing arm 202 to directly above the spindle can 4;
[0073] A proximity sensor 15 is further provided. The proximity sensor 15 is used to detect the rotation position of the swing arm 202. The proximity sensor 15 can optionally adopt an optoelectronic sensor, a magnetic sensor or a contact switch, and is used to enable the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14 according to the signal of the proximity sensor 15.
[0074] In the preferred solution, a limit block 206 is further provided on the swing seat 201. The limit block 206 is used to accurately limit the swing position of the yarn evenness regulator 3 directly above the spindle can 4;
[0075] A buffer air spring 207 is further provided on the swing seat 201 for buffering the rotational impact of the swing arm 202. The advantage of this solution is that the control is relatively simple. The control signal of the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14 is a switch signal. By cooperating with the setting of delayed power-off, the avoidance operation of the avoidance mechanism 2 can be completed. For the specific operation method, see Example 6.
[0076] Example 5:

The transmission mechanism includes a first gear 209 fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 208, a second gear 211 installed on the motor, and the first gear 209 and the second gear 211 are connected by a synchronous belt 210.

[0079] Or a weighing sensor is also provided, and the weighing sensor is used to detect the weight of the inner yarn package 9. When the weight is lower than a preset value, it is used to start the motor to drive the swing arm 202 to rotate.
[0080] In a preferred solution, a limit block 206 is further provided on the swing seat 201, and the limit block 206 is used to limit the swing position of the yarn equalizing device 3 directly above the spindle can 4;
[0081] A buffer gas spring 207 is also provided on the swing seat 201 for buffering the rotational impact of the swing arm 202.
[0082] Embodiment 6:
[0083] On the basis of Embodiment 4, as Figure 9 shown, a yarn feeding method using the above-mentioned inner yarn feeding system includes the following steps:
[0084] S1. The yarn feeding robot 17 obtains a yarn feeding instruction, which can be issued by the twisting machine or the on-site general control server. The yarn feeding robot 17 moves to the corresponding working position of the twisting machine 16 where the inner yarn package 9 needs to be fed.
[0085] S2. Preferably, the robotic arm 8 first takes out the previous inner yarn tube. At this step, the swing arm 202 can be pushed to rotate until the swing arm 202 is adsorbed by the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14;
[0086] The robotic arm 8 grabs the inner yarn package 9 and moves it above the spindle can 4 at the working position;
[0087] S3. The robotic arm 8 pushes the swing arm 202 to rotate until the swing arm 202 is adsorbed by the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14; in another alternative solution, at the front end of the robotic arm 8, there are two robotic claws respectively used for grasping the inner yarn tube and grasping the inner yarn package 9. With this solution, only one action is required to simultaneously complete the operations of pushing the swing arm 202 to rotate, taking the inner yarn tube, and placing it into the inner yarn package 9.
[0088] S4. The robotic arm 8 places the inner yarn package 9 into the spindle can 4;
[0089] S5. The upper yarn robot 17 leaves the current work station. After a preset time period, the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14 releases the swing arm 202 until the twist regulator 3 resets directly above the spindle can 4; in another alternative solution, the proximity sensor 15 can also be used to detect the approach or departure of the swing arm 202 to control the energization and adsorption, and power-off and release of the electromagnetic escapement mechanism 14.
[0090] The automatic upper yarn of the inner yarn package 9 is realized through the above steps.
[0091] Embodiment 7:
[0092] Based on Embodiment 5, as Figure 10 shown, a method for upper yarn using the above-mentioned inner yarn upper yarn system includes the following steps:
[0093] S01. The upper yarn robot 17 obtains an upper yarn instruction and moves to the corresponding work station of the twisting machine 16;
[0094] The robotic arm 8 first takes out the previous inner yarn tube. In another alternative solution, at the front end of the robotic arm 8, there are two robotic claws respectively used for grasping the inner yarn tube and grasping the inner yarn package 9.
[0095] S02. The robotic arm 8 grasps the inner yarn package 9 and moves to above the spindle can 4 at the work station;
[0096] S031. When the proximity sensor 15 detects the approach of the upper yarn robot 17, the robotic arm 8 or the inner yarn package 9, the motor drives the swing arm 202 to rotate, and the twist regulator 3 avoids the space position at the top of the spindle can 4;
[0097] S032. Or, in parallel with S031, the weighing sensor detects the weight of the inner yarn package 9. When the weight is lower than the preset value, the motor drives the swing arm 202 to rotate, and the twist regulator 3 avoids the space position at the top of the spindle can 4; preferably, the motor is the Hall motor 212, which can control the swing arm 202 to rotate a preset angle. By using the weighing method, it can reduce the false triggering of the proximity sensor 15 caused by the movement of personnel, thus affecting production.
[0098] S04. The robotic arm 8 places the inner yarn package 9 into the spindle can 4;
[0099] S05. The upper yarn robot 17 leaves the current working station, and the motor drives the swing arm 202 to rotate until the yarn equalizer 3 is reset directly above the spindle can 4;
[0100] The automatic yarn feeding of the inner yarn package 9 is realized through the above steps.
