Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of knitting systems, and in particular to a double-sided open-width knitting system and an application method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Double-sided open-width knitting system generally refers to a knitting device that knits the ground fabric with ground yarn on the one hand, and feeds terry yarn into the ground yarn knitting place on the other hand, so that the terry yarn and the ground yarn are knitted together to obtain the fabric.

[0003] Most existing double-sided open-width knitting machines include a yarn guide, a knitting device, and a cloth collection device. The knitting device is the main body of yarn weaving, and the yarn guide is installed on the knitting device to guide multiple yarns into the knitting device. The knitting device knits multiple yarns into a blend to form a grey fabric. The cloth collection device is installed on the knitting device and most of the cloth collection devices include a cloth collection box located below the discharge port of the knitting device to collect the grey fabric knitted by the knitting device. When the yarn introduced by the knitting machine for a knitting operation is used up, it means that the knitting machine has completed a production operation. The operator can manually pull the cloth collection box to remove the grey fabric.

[0004] However, when the operator manually pulls the cloth box to take out the grey cloth, there is a problem that the cloth box containing the grey cloth is large in size and heavy in weight and is difficult to move. As a result, the knitting machine is easily put on standby for a long time due to the long time it takes to move the formed grey cloth, thereby reducing the continuous production efficiency of the knitting machine. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to improve the problem that the cloth box for storing grey cloth is large in size, heavy in weight and difficult to move, the present application provides a double-sided open-width knitting system and an application method thereof.

[0006] In the first aspect, the double-sided open-width knitting system provided by the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The double-sided open-width knitting system includes a machine body, and also includes a top connecting device and a bottom connecting device arranged in sequence along the vertical direction, and the machine body is provided with a cloth unloading area for installing the top connecting device and the bottom connecting device; the top connecting device includes a top connecting box, two groups of bearing and abutting mechanisms and two groups of driving mechanisms, one group of the bearing and abutting mechanisms is arranged on the machine body through a group of driving mechanisms; the driving mechanism is used to make the two groups of bearing and abutting mechanisms abut against the inner cavity of the cloth unloading area to jointly bear the top connecting box, so that the grey cloth produced by the machine body enters the top connecting box; or the driving mechanism is used to make the bearing and abutting mechanisms move away from the cloth unloading area, so that the grey cloth produced by the machine body enters the bottom connecting device; the bottom connecting device includes a bottom connecting box and a movable mechanism, the bottom connecting box is arranged on the ground where the machine body is located through the movable mechanism, and the movable mechanism is used to move the bottom connecting box in the cloth unloading area.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving member is set on the machine body through the side supporting plate, and the output end of the driving member is extended outward, so that the two supporting plates are abutted against each other in the cloth unloading area, and then the supporting plates are used to jointly support the top connection box, and then the top connection box supports the grey cloth produced by the machine body; when the top connection box leaves the supporting plate, the driving member contracts the output end, so that the supporting plate is quickly displaced to the inner cavity of the pre-allowance channel, so that the grey cloth produced by the new round of the machine body can quickly enter the inner cavity of the bottom connection box, and then the top connection box and the bottom connection box alternately support the grey cloth, thereby ensuring the working efficiency of the continuous production of the machine body.

[0011] In a specific feasible implementation scheme, the top connection device also includes two groups of strengthening mechanisms, each of the strengthening mechanisms is used to connect the bearing plate and the output end of the driving member; each of the strengthening mechanisms includes a locking plate, an insert screw and a strengthening nut, the locking plate is arranged on the output end of the driving member, the insert screw is arranged on the bearing plate, the insert screw is passed through the locking plate, and the strengthening nut is threadedly connected to the insert screw to connect the locking plate to the bearing plate.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking plate increases the contact area between the driving member and the bearing plate. After the plug-in screw rod passes through the locking plate, the position of the locking plate relative to the bearing plate is limited. The strengthening nut is threadedly connected to the plug-in screw rod, so that the locking plate and the bearing plate are fixedly connected as a whole, thereby ensuring the connection strength between the driving member and the bearing plate, as well as the stability of the driving member in controlling the displacement of the bearing plate.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the traction part rotates forwardly to output the winding lifting cable, and the winding lifting cable pulls the front pull handle through the connecting hook, so that the top connection box is moved to the side of the supporting plate, so that the operator can quickly pull the top connection box out of the cloth unloading area, thereby effectively improving the efficiency of the top connection box away from the machine body, and facilitating the bottom connection box to quickly receive the new round of grey cloth produced by the machine body in the cloth unloading area.

[0015] In a specific possible implementation scheme, the movable mechanism includes a loading part and two groups of movable parts, the two groups of movable parts are relatively arranged on the ground where the machine body is located, and the loading part is arranged on the two groups of movable parts to receive the bottom connection box.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the loading part is installed on the ground through two sets of movable parts. The loading part is used to receive the bottom connection box, so that the bottom connection box can accurately receive the grey cloth produced by the machine body at various places in the cloth unloading area, and the bottom connection box is moved by the loading part, which helps the operator to quickly pull out the bottom connection box.

The fixing motor and the end connection seat are relatively arranged on the ground where the machine body is located, and the movable square cylinder is threadedly connected to the movable screw rod; one end of the movable screw rod is connected to the output end of the fixing motor, and the other end is arranged on the end connection seat; the loading part is arranged on the two movable square cylinders to receive the bottom connection box.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the fixing motor rotates the movable screw in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction through the forward or reverse output end, thereby causing the movable square tube to drive the loading part and the bottom connecting box to move along the length direction of the movable screw, so that the bottom connecting box can be positioned at any position in the cloth unloading area to receive the grey cloth or unload the bottom connecting box and the grey cloth.

[0019] In a specific possible implementation scheme, the loading part includes a loading base plate and two groups of clamping units. The loading base plate is simultaneously connected to two movable square cylinders. The two groups of clamping units are relatively arranged on the loading base plate to jointly clamp the bottom connection box located on the loading base plate.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the loading base plate is connected to the two movable square cylinders at the same time, and the two sets of clamping units are relatively arranged on the loading base plate to jointly clamp the bottom connection box, thereby ensuring the position stability and loading stability of the bottom connection box on the loading base plate.

[0021] In a specific possible implementation scheme, each of the clamping units includes a positioning support plate, an abutting side plate and multiple groups of compression parts. The positioning support plate is arranged on the loading base plate, and the abutting side plate is arranged on the positioning support plate through multiple groups of compression parts; the bottom connection box is pressed tightly between the two abutting side plates.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the abutting side plates are connected to the positioning support plates through compression members so as to be positioned on the top wall of the loading base plate; when the bottom connection box is placed on the top wall of the loading base plate, the two abutting side plates simultaneously clamp the bottom connection box on opposite sides of the bottom connection box, and the compression member is in a compressed deformation state and reacts to the abutting side plates with the elastic force generated during compression, so that the two abutting side plates are tightly pressed against the bottom connection box.

[0023] In a specific possible implementation scheme, it also includes a high receiving seat and a low receiving seat arranged on opposite sides of the cloth unloading area, the high receiving seat is used to receive the top receiving box on the supporting mechanism, and the low receiving seat is used to receive the bottom receiving box on the moving mechanism.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the high seat receives the top connection box at the supporting plate, and the low seat receives the bottom connection box at the loading bottom plate, so as to speed up the speed of the top connection box and the bottom connection box leaving the cloth unloading area, thereby helping to reduce the long standby time of the machine body caused by the long grey cloth transfer time.

[0041] The embodiments of the present application disclose a double-sided open-width knitting system.

[0042] The following is combined with Figure 1-6 This application is described in further detail.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 The double-sided open-width knitting system includes a machine body 1. In this embodiment, the machine body 1 can be a double-sided open-width weft knitting machine, and a cloth unloading area 11 is provided on the machine body 1. The grey cloth produced by the machine body 1 can directly enter and be accumulated in the cloth unloading area 11.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 The double-sided open-width knitting system also includes a top-connecting device 2 and a bottom-connecting device 3. Both the top-connecting device 2 and the bottom-connecting device 3 are arranged in the cloth unloading area 11, and the top-connecting device 2 is located above the bottom-connecting device 3. Both the top-connecting device 2 and the bottom-connecting device 3 are used to carry the grey cloth produced by the machine body 1. After the top-connecting device 2 is loaded with the grey cloth produced by one operation of the machine body 1, the top-connecting device 2 can quickly move away from the cloth unloading area 11. Then, the bottom-connecting device 3 takes over the grey cloth produced by the machine body 1 again. This process continuously takes over the grey cloth through the top-connecting device 2 and the bottom-connecting device 3, thereby shortening the downtime of the machine body 1 caused by the transfer of the grey cloth, thereby ensuring the production continuity of the machine body 1 and helping to improve the working efficiency of the machine body 1.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The top connection device 2 includes a top connection box 21, two sets of supporting mechanisms 22, two sets of driving mechanisms 23 and two sets of strengthening mechanisms 24, wherein one set of supporting mechanisms 22 is correspondingly arranged on the machine body 1 through a set of driving mechanisms 23, and the two sets of supporting mechanisms 22 are respectively located on the opposite sides of the cloth unloading area 11.

[0046] Reference Figure 2 Each set of abutment mechanisms 22 includes a bearing plate 221. A pre-clearance passage 12 is horizontally provided through the side wall of the machine body 1. The inner cavity of the pre-clearance passage 12 communicates with the inner cavity of the cloth unloading area 11. One end of the bearing plate 221 can be inserted into the side wall of the pre-clearance passage 12, and the other end is located in the inner cavity of the cloth unloading area 11.

[0047] Reference Figure 2 Each driving mechanism 23 includes a side support plate 231 and a driving member 232. The side support plate 231 is horizontally welded to the side wall of the machine body 1 and is located below the pre-clearance passage 12. In this embodiment, the driving member 232 can be an electric cylinder, fixed to the top wall of the side support plate 231 by bolts, and the output end of the driving member 232 is located within the cavity of the pre-clearance passage 12.

[0048] Reference Figure 3 A set of reinforcing mechanisms 24 is used to connect a bearing plate 221 to the output end of a driving member 232. Each set of reinforcing mechanisms 24 includes a locking plate 241, a connecting screw 242, and a reinforcing nut 243. The locking plate 241 is welded to the output end of the driving member 232 in the vertical direction, and the connecting screw 242 is welded to the side wall of the bearing plate 221 facing the driving member 232 in the horizontal direction. When the locking plate 241 and the side wall of the bearing plate 221 are in contact with each other, the connecting screw 242 passes through the locking plate 241. The operator screws the reinforcing nut 243 onto the connecting screw 242 to fix the locking plate 241 and the bearing plate 221 into a whole.

[0049] Reference Figure 2 After the driving member 232 extends outward from the output end, the end of the supporting plate 221 away from the driving member 232 enters the inner cavity of the cloth unloading area 11 until the adjacent side walls of the two supporting plates 221 abut against each other. At this point, the operator can place the top connection box 21 on the plane formed by the two abutting supporting plates 221. The top connection box 21 is used to receive the grey cloth produced by the machine body 1. When the top connection box 21 is separated from the top wall of the supporting plates 221, the driving member 232 retracts the output end, and the supporting plates 221 can be completely retracted into the inner cavity of the pre-clearance channel 12. At this time, the grey cloth produced by the machine body 1 directly falls into the inner bottom wall of the cloth unloading area 11.

[0050] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4To facilitate operator movement of the top-joining box 21 on the support plate 221, the top-joining device 2 also includes a traction mechanism 25, which comprises a traction member 251, a lifting cable 252, a connecting hook 253, and a front handle 254. In this embodiment, the traction member 251 can be a winch, secured to the side wall of the unloading area 11 by bolts. One longitudinal end of the lifting cable 252 is welded and wound around the output end of the traction member 251, and the connecting hook 253 is welded to the other longitudinal end of the lifting cable 252.

[0051] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The front handle 254 is welded to the side wall of the top connection box 21. The operator can hook the connecting hook 253 onto the front handle 254. The traction member 251 rotates forward at the output end, and the output end of the traction member 251 reels the lifting cable 252, thereby tightly hooking the connecting hook 253 onto the front handle 254. As the traction member 251 continuously reels the lifting cable 252, the lifting cable 252 pulls the top connection box 21 onto the support plate 221, thereby moving the top connection box 21 to the end position of the support plate 221.

[0052] Reference Figure 1 To facilitate the rapid separation of the top connection box 21 from the supporting plate 221, the double-sided open-width knitting system further includes a high connection seat 4. In this embodiment, the high connection seat 4 can be a tripod with an inclined surface. The high connection seat 4 is placed on the ground where the machine body 1 is located, and the apex of the inclined surface of the high connection seat 4 is coplanar with the top wall of the supporting plate 221. The traction member 251 pulls the top connection box 21 to the end of the supporting plate 221 near the high connection seat 4 via the lifting cable 252. The operator pulls the front handle 254 to move the top connection box 21 from the supporting plate 221 to the high connection seat 4. Then, the top connection box 21 is quickly moved from the high connection seat 4 to the ground, thereby accelerating the separation of the top connection box 21 from the cloth unloading area 11.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The bottom connection device 3 includes a bottom connection box 31 and a movable mechanism 32. The movable mechanism 32 further includes a loading section 5 and two sets of movable sections 6. The two sets of movable sections 6 are positioned relative to each other on the floor where the machine body 1 is located. The bottom connection box 31 is positioned on the two sets of movable sections 6 via the loading section 5. When the driving member 232 retracts its output end and positions the abutment plate 221 within the pre-clearance passage 12, the movable sections 6 drive the loading section 5 to move along its length, allowing the bottom connection box 31 to move within the cloth unloading area 11 and receive the grey cloth produced by the machine body 1 at different locations within the cloth unloading area 11.

[0054] Reference Figure 5Each movable unit 6 comprises a retaining motor 61, a movable screw 62, a movable square cylinder 63, and a terminal block 64. The retaining motor 61 can be a servo motor, and the terminal block 64 can be a bearing block. The retaining motor 61 and the bearing block are fixed relative to each other on the ground. The movable square cylinder 63 can be an internally threaded cylinder that threads onto the movable screw 62. The movable square cylinder 63 is threadedly connected to the movable screw 62. One end of the movable screw 62 is connected to the output terminal of the retaining motor 61 via a flange, and the other end of the movable screw 62 is plugged into the terminal block 64.

[0055] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The loading section 5 includes a loading base plate 51 and two sets of clamping units 52. The loading base plate 51 is horizontally welded to two movable square cylinders 63, and the bottom connection box 31 is placed on the top wall of the loading base plate 51. When the fixed motor 61 rotates forward or reverse, the movable screw 62 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, causing the movable square cylinder 63 to drive the loading base plate 51 and the bottom connection box 31 to move back and forth along the length of the movable screw 62, so that the bottom connection box 31 moves to different positions in the cloth unloading area 11. After the supporting plate 221 enters the inner cavity of the pre-clearance channel 12, the bottom connection box 31 can directly receive the grey cloth produced by the next operation of the machine body 1, thereby shortening the standby and downtime of the machine body 1 caused by the movement of the grey cloth, and ensuring the continuous operation of the machine body 1.

[0056] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 Two sets of clamping units 52 are arranged relative to each other on the loading base plate 51 to define the position of the bottom connection box 31 on the loading base plate 51 and ensure the stability of the bottom connection box 31 in loading the grey cloth. Each set of clamping units 52 includes a positioning support plate 521, abutting side plates 522, and multiple sets of compression members 523. In this embodiment, the compression members 523 can be steel compression springs. The positioning support plate 521 is welded to the loading base plate 51 in the vertical direction, and one end of the compression member 523 in the longitudinal direction is welded to the positioning support plate 521 in the horizontal direction. All compression members 523 are respectively arranged on the side walls of the two positioning support plates 521 facing each other.

[0057] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6The abutting side plate 522 is vertically welded to the end of the compression member 523 away from the positioning support plate 521, and the two abutting side plates 522 are loosely fitted. The operator presses the abutting side plates 522 toward the positioning support plate 521, compressing the compression member 523. Next, the bottom connection box 31 is placed on the top wall of the loading base plate 51, and the two abutting side plates 522 are simultaneously abutted against the bottom connection box 31. At this point, the elastic force generated by the compression of the compression member 523 simultaneously presses the two abutting side plates 522 against the bottom connection box 31, ensuring the stability of the bottom connection box 31 on the loading base plate 51.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 To facilitate the rapid removal of the bottom connection box 31 loaded with grey fabric from the unloading area 11, the double-sided open-width knitting system further includes a low connection base 7. In this embodiment, the low connection base 7 can be a tripod with an inclined surface, and its height is smaller than that of the high connection base 4. The low connection base 7 is placed on the ground and located at the end of the unloading area 11 away from the high connection base 4. The top wall of the low connection base 7 is coplanar with the top wall of the loading base 51, allowing the operator to pull the bottom connection box 31 from the loading base 51 onto the low connection base 7, thereby quickly removing the bottom connection box 31 from the unloading area 11. As the bottom connection box 31 moves away from the unloading area 11, the operator can control the extended output end of the driving member 232 to abut the two supporting plates 221 at a higher position in the unloading area 11. The top connection box 21 then quickly receives the grey fabric produced in the next operating stage of the machine body 1 on the supporting plates 221, ensuring the continuous production efficiency of the machine body 1.

[0059] The operating principle of the double-sided open-width knitting system of the present embodiment is as follows: the driving member 232 extends its output end, causing the two supporting plates 221 to abut against each other at a higher position in the cloth unloading area 11. The top connection box 21 receives the grey fabric produced by the machine body 1 on the supporting plates 221. After the first round of grey fabric production on the machine body 1 is completed, the traction member 251 rotates forward at its output end to reel in the lifting cable 252, causing the lifting hook cable to hook to the front handle 254 via the connecting hook 253, thereby moving the top connection box 21 to the end of the supporting plate 221 near the high connection seat 4. The operator pulls the front handle 254, causing the high connection seat 4 to move from the supporting plate 221 to the high connection seat 4. The high connection seat 4 then allows the top connection box 21 to be quickly moved to the ground on the side of the machine body 1.

[0060] Next, the driving member 232 retracts the output end, causing the supporting plate 221 to move to the inner cavity of the pre-passageway 12. At this time, the grey cloth produced by the second round of the machine body 1 can directly enter the inner cavity of the bottom connection box 31 for storage. When a certain amount of grey cloth is stored in the inner cavity of the bottom connection box 31, the retaining motor 61 rotates the output end, causing the movable screw 62 to rotate accordingly, thereby causing the movable square cylinder 63 to drive the loading base 51 and the low connection seat 7 to move to the end of the movable screw 62 near the low connection seat 7. The operator pulls the bottom connection box 31 from the loading base 51 to the low connection seat 7, quickly moving the bottom connection box 31 away from the cloth unloading area 11. This process effectively shortens the time for grey cloth transfer and, by taking turns to receive grey cloth from the top connection box 21 and the bottom connection box 31, shortens the standby time of the machine body 1 caused by the transfer of grey cloth, helping to ensure the continuous production efficiency of the machine body 1.

[0061] The present application also discloses an application method of the double-sided open-width knitting system, which includes the following application steps:

[0062] Top connection: The driving member 232 extends the output end outward, so that the two supporting plates 221 abut against each other in the higher area of ​​the cloth unloading area 11 to form a plane for placing the top connection box 21, thereby allowing the top connection box 21 to receive the grey cloth produced by the first round of the machine body 1 at a higher position in the cloth unloading area 11.

[0063] Top-joining cloth guide: The traction member 251 reels the lifting cable 252, so that the lifting cable 252 pulls the front pull handle 254 through the connecting hook 253, thereby moving the top-joining box 21 to the end of the supporting plate 221 close to the high-joining seat 4. The operator pulls the top-joining box 21 from the supporting plate 221 to the high-joining seat 4, and then uses the inclined surface of the high-joining seat 4 to quickly move the top-joining box 21 to the ground on one side of the machine body 1 to complete the rapid movement of the grey cloth.

[0064] Bottom connection: The driving member 232 retracts the output end, causing the supporting plate 221 to quickly move into the inner cavity of the pre-passageway 12. At this time, the bottom connection box 31 receives the grey cloth produced by the second cycle of the machine body 1 in the cloth unloading area 11. When the bottom connection box 31 receives a certain amount of grey cloth, the bottom connection box 31 receives the grey cloth produced by the machine body 1 on the movable mechanism 32. Then, the bottom connection box 31 is moved within the cloth unloading area 11 by the movable mechanism 32, allowing the operator to quickly remove the bottom connection box 31.

[0065] This process effectively shortens the time for transferring the grey cloth, and the top connecting box 21 and the bottom connecting box 31 take turns to receive the grey cloth, so as to shorten the standby time of the machine body 1 caused by transferring the grey cloth, which helps to ensure the working efficiency of the continuous production of the machine body 1.

[0066] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
