An automatic conveying and tube loading method for yarn bobbins

Abstract

The present invention relates to an automatic conveying and tube loading method for yarn bobbins. The method drives a sprocket by a motor, the sprocket drives a conveying chain, and the conveying chain drives a yarn tube clamp. When a yarn tube clamp passes by a baffle I, a supporting wheel abuts against the baffle I, causing the clamping arms of the yarn tube clamp to open. When the yarn tube clamp passes by a yarn tube, the yarn tube is supported on the clamping arms and moves with the yarn tube clamp. After the supporting wheel of the yarn tube clamp leaves the baffle I, the two clamping arms close and clamp the yarn tube, and then the yarn tube continues to be conveyed. When the yarn tube is conveyed below a tube loading cylinder and the corresponding rack of the tube loading cylinder needs a yarn tube, the tube loading cylinder drives a baffle II to rotate, and the baffle II abuts against the supporting wheel to open the clamping arms. After the clamping arms are opened, the yarn tube drops from the yarn tube clamp onto a tube loading guide plate and slides into the rack through the guiding of the tube loading guide plate. The automatic conveying and tube loading method for yarn bobbins of the present invention has many advantages such as high automation degree, low cost, and stable performance.

Specific Embodiment

[0030] Please refer to the attached drawings of the specification Figure 1 to attached Figure 5 As shown, the present invention is an automatic conveying and tube loading system for yarn bobbins, which is assembled by a frame 1, a motor 2, a sprocket 3, a conveying chain 4, a bobbin clamp 5, a tube loading cylinder 6, a tube loading guide plate 7, a material rack 8, etc. It is used to automatically convey the bobbins 10 and load the bobbins 10 into the material rack 8 for standby.

[0031] Among them, the motor 2 is installed on one side of the frame 1. In this embodiment, the motor 1 is located at the lower left of the frame 1, which provides power for the operation of the entire system.

[0032] A number of sprockets 3 are provided, and one of the sprockets 3 is driven by the motor 2 to rotate. Specifically, the sprocket 3 includes a driving sprocket 31, a steering sprocket I 32, a horizontal sprocket 33, and a steering sprocket II 34. The driving sprocket 31 is located on one side of the motor 2 and is driven by the motor 2 to rotate. The steering sprocket I 32 is located above the driving sprocket 31 and at one end of the upper part of the frame 1; the horizontal sprocket 33 is located at the other end of the upper part of the frame 1, and the steering sprocket I 32 and the horizontal sprocket 33 are horizontally arranged. The steering sprocket II 34 is located diagonally below the steering sprocket I 32.

[0033] The conveying chain 4 is sleeved on the sprocket 3 and is driven by the sprocket 3. Specifically, the conveying chain 4 is sequentially sleeved on the driving sprocket 31, the steering sprocket I 32, the horizontal sprocket 33, and the steering sprocket II 34, and the conveying chain 4 between the driving sprocket 31 and the steering sprocket I 32 is vertically arranged, and the conveying chain 4 between the steering sprocket I 32 and the horizontal sprocket 33 is horizontally arranged. The conveying chain 4 runs in a cycle along the path of taking the tube, sending the tube, and unloading the tube, enabling the equipment to achieve continuous production.

[0034] A number of guide rails 9 are installed on the frame 1; the conveying chain 4 is clamped by the guide rails 9 and can move in the extending direction of the guide rails 9, so as to avoid the swing of the conveying chain 4 during the conveying process and affect the stability of the system.

[0035] The bobbin clamp 5 is installed on the conveying chain 4 and is linked with the conveying chain 4. A number of bobbin clamps 5 are provided, and each bobbin clamp 5 can clamp a bobbin 10. A number of mounting plates 41 are provided on the conveying chain 4; the bobbin clamp 5 is installed on the mounting plate 41.

[0036] Further, the bobbin clamp 5 includes a pair of clamping arms 51, and the clamping arms 51 are pivotally connected by a rotating shaft 52; a torsion spring 53 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 52, and the torsion spring 53 can enable the clamping arms 51 to clamp the bobbin 10, or can reset the opened clamp. A cam wheel 54 is installed on one of the clamping arms 51; a stop piece I11 is installed on the machine frame 1, and the cam wheel 54 can abut against the stop piece I11 to open the clamping arms 51 for facilitating the clamping of the bobbin 10. When the cam wheel 54 disengages from the stop piece I11, the clamping arms 51 are closed by the torsion spring 53, enabling the clamping arms 51 to clamp the bobbin 10 and preventing the bobbin 10 from falling off.

[0037] A bobbin rack 14 is provided on one side of the stop piece I11; the bobbin 10 can be supported on the bobbin rack 14 for being clamped by the bobbin clamp 5. A photoelectric probe I16 is installed on the bobbin rack 14, and the photoelectric probe I16 can detect whether there is a bobbin 10 on the bobbin rack 14. If there is no bobbin 10, the bobbin 10 is hung on the bobbin rack 14 through a vibrating disk (not shown). Since the vibrating disk has nothing to do with this creation and is a prior art, it will not be elaborated here.

[0038] The tube loading cylinder 6 is installed on the top of the machine frame 1, and a tube loading cylinder 6 needs to be installed at each working position, and each tube loading cylinder 6 works independently. The tube loading cylinder 6 can drive the bobbin clamp 5 to open, causing the bobbin 10 to fall. Specifically, the tube loading cylinder 6 is installed on the top of the machine frame 1 through a cylinder seat 61. A stop piece II12 is pivotally connected to the cylinder seat 61; the tube loading cylinder 6 is connected to and drives the stop piece II12 to rotate, enabling the stop piece II12 to abut against the cam wheel 54 to open the clamping arms 51 and cause the bobbin 10 to fall.

[0039] The tube loading guide plate 7 is located below the tube loading cylinder 6 and is docked with the material rack 8, enabling the fallen bobbin 10 to fall into the material rack 8. In this embodiment, the tube loading guide plate 7 is inclined downward, and it includes a guide plate I71 and a guide plate II72, and the guide plate I71 and the guide plate II72 are in a V-shaped structure. A notch 73 is provided at the lower part of the guide plate I71, and the bobbin 10 can fall from the notch 73. A long slot 75 is provided on the guide plate II72; a tube pusher 74 that can be adjusted along the long slot 75 is installed in the long slot 75, and the tube pusher 74 can urge the bobbin 10 to move towards the notch 73 to facilitate the falling of the bobbin 10. By adjusting the position of the tube pusher 74 in the long slot 75, the tube loading guide plate 7 can be adapted to bobbins 10 of different specifications. A stop piece 76 is provided at the bottom end of the guide plate II72, and the stop piece 76 can stop the bobbin 10 to prevent the bobbin 10 from falling off from the tail of the tube loading guide plate 7.

[0040] The yarn bobbin rack 8 is used to receive the yarn bobbins 10, and it includes a pair of vertically arranged clamping plates 81. A vertical groove 82 is formed between the clamping plates 81. The yarn bobbins 10 can be inserted into the vertical groove 82 and are stacked individually from bottom to top for standby. A bent portion 83 is provided at the top of each clamping plate 81, and the two bent portions 83 are in an inverted V shape and have a guiding function to facilitate the insertion of the yarn bobbins 10 into the vertical groove 82.

[0041] Furthermore, a photoelectric probe II 17 is installed on the clamping plate 81. The photoelectric probe II 17 is located in the upper part of the vertical groove 82 and can detect whether the yarn bobbin 10 reaches the upper part of the vertical groove 82. The photoelectric probe II 17 can control the tube loading cylinder 6. Specifically, when the photoelectric probe II 17 detects that the vertical groove 82 is not full of yarn bobbins 10, it starts the tube loading cylinder 6, and the tube loading cylinder 6 drives the baffle II 12 to drop the yarn bobbin 10 passing through this position. If the photoelectric probe II 17 detects that the vertical groove 82 is full of yarn bobbins 10, the tube loading cylinder 6 does not start, and the yarn bobbin 10 passes through this position.

[0042] A baffle III 13 is installed on the frame 1 between the driving sprocket 31 and the steering sprocket II 34. The follower wheel 54 of the yarn bobbin clamp 5 can also abut against the baffle III 13, causing the clamping arm 51 to open, and then the clamped yarn bobbin 10 drops.

[0043] The method for automatically transporting and loading the yarn bobbins using the above automatic transportation and loading system for yarn bobbins includes the following steps:

[0044] 1), The motor 2 drives the sprocket 3, causing the sprocket 3 to rotate. At the same time, the sprocket 3 drives the conveyor chain 4. The conveyor chain 4 drives a number of yarn bobbin clamps 5 installed thereon. When one of the yarn bobbin clamps 5 passes by the baffle I 11, the follower wheel 54 abuts against the baffle I 11, causing the clamping arm 51 of the yarn bobbin clamp 5 to open. When the yarn bobbin clamp 5 passes by the yarn bobbin 10, the yarn bobbin 10 is supported on the clamping arm 51 and moves with the yarn bobbin clamp 5. After the follower wheel 54 of the yarn bobbin clamp 5 leaves the baffle I 11, the two clamping arms 51 close and clamp the yarn bobbin 10, thus preventing the yarn bobbin 10 from falling. Then, the yarn bobbin 10 continues to be transported.

[0045] 2), The yarn bobbin 10 is transported to below the tube loading cylinder 6. If the yarn bobbin rack 8 corresponding to the tube loading cylinder 6 needs the yarn bobbin 10, the tube loading cylinder 6 drives the baffle II 12 to rotate, so that the baffle II 12 can abut against the follower wheel 54, thereby causing the clamping arm 51 to open. After the clamping arm 51 opens, the yarn bobbin 10 drops from the yarn bobbin clamp 5 to the tube loading guide plate 7 and slides into the yarn bobbin rack 8 through the guiding of the tube loading guide plate 7.

[0046] 3), if there is no need to add any yarn tubes 10 to all the racks 8, the yarn tube clamp 5 continues to carry the yarn tube 10 to the baffle III 13. At this time, the roller 54 abuts against the baffle III 13, causing the clamping arm 51 to open and the yarn tube 10 to fall, thus avoiding conflicts with the yarn tubes 10 on the yarn tube rack 14.

[0047] The above specific implementation manners are only preferred embodiments of the present creation, and are not intended to limit the present creation. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present creation shall be included within the protection scope of the present creation.
