Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of rectangular steel wire ring drive in the field of yarn breakage and splicing technology of ring spinning machines for wool spinning, and particularly relates to a steel wire ring rotating device for wool spinning in ring spinning machines. Background Technology

[0002] Patent 202110647608.3 discloses an automatic yarn threading device for the traveler of a ring spinning machine, comprising a yarn feeder for straightening the yarn into a tensioned state. The yarn feeder includes at least two separate yarn clamping devices, which are fixed on the same fixed base. The fixed base has a connecting part fixed to a robotic arm. The two yarn clamping devices respectively clamp the two ends of the yarn to form the yarn threading portion, which is used to form a circulating airflow generator at the ring. The beneficial effect of this invention is that the circulating airflow allows the traveler to be blown at any position on the ring and rotate around the ring. By making an angle α between the threading portion and the axis of the ring, it is ensured that the threading portion of the traveler is hung inside the traveler.

[0003] The inventors discovered during the implementation of this patented technology that the friction pair of the ring and traveler is a key component for twisting and winding on a ring spinning machine. The spindle rotates at high speed with the bobbin, and the yarn on the bobbin pulls the traveler along the edge of the ring. Therefore, the traveler's movement on the ring is passive, serving a guiding and traction function. When the ring spinning machine is used for cotton spinning, the structure in 202110647608.3, which uses annular airflow to propel the traveler along the ring, allows for smooth yarn threading. However, when the ring spinning machine is used for wool spinning, the structure in 202110647608.3, which uses annular airflow to propel the traveler along the ring, cannot smoothly achieve yarn threading. This is due to the characteristics of wool fibers used in wool spinning. When wool roving is spun into yarn on a ring spinning machine, twisting and winding by travelers are required. The wool spinning loop is rectangular, with its length greater than 1.5 times its width. Because the loop contacts the top of the collar with its wide side, its center of gravity is located below the middle of the collar. When the yarn pulls the loop along the edge of the collar, this center of gravity does not obstruct its movement. However, when the yarn breaks, the loop loses its momentum. Using the structure described in patent 202110647608.3, which utilizes annular airflow to propel the loop along the collar, the loop's center of gravity, being below the middle of the collar, causes the top of the loop to move faster than the bottom. This results in the loop getting stuck on the outer surface of the collar and unable to continue moving along it. Therefore, the process described in patent 202110647608.3, which uses annular airflow to achieve the loop's rotation along the collar for yarn threading, cannot be realized.

[0004] In summary, the existing technology does not disclose a technical solution for how to drive the rectangular steel traveler used in wool spinning using an automatic splicing device during the yarn breakage splicing process of a ring spinning machine, so as to enable the steel traveler used in wool spinning to slide smoothly under the guidance of the ring. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The objective of this invention is to solve the problem of how to drive the rectangular steel traveler used in wool spinning during the yarn breakage and reconnection process in a ring spinning machine, so as to enable the steel traveler to slide smoothly under the guidance of the ring.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a steel traveler rotating device for wool spinning in a ring spinning machine.

[0007] The specific technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:

[0008] A traveling bead rotating device for wool spinning in a ring spinning machine includes an air guide ring fixed below the ring and an air supply device movable above the side of the ring. The inner side of the air guide ring is provided with an air guide groove. The air nozzle in the air supply device blows air along the side of the ring toward the ring. Part of the air flow pushes the top of the traveling bead to slide on the top of the ring, and the other part of the air flow enters the air guide groove along the inner side of the ring, forming an annular airflow below the circumference of the ring. At the same time, an upward airflow is formed on the inner side of the ring. The annular airflow pushes the bottom of the traveling bead to slide at the bottom of the ring, and the upward airflow exerts a lifting force on the traveling bead.

[0009] The air supply device can be a separate air pipe or an air nozzle fixed to the wiring robot described in the invention patent 202110647608.3.

[0010] Furthermore, the air guide ring includes a first air guide ring, which is circular. The inner side of the first air guide ring is provided with two steps of different heights. The higher step forms a first gap with the steel ring and the through hole of the steel ring to increase the flow channel of the annular airflow. The lower step is an air guide groove, and the side of the air guide groove near the center of the steel ring is a guide plate that slopes upward.

[0011] Furthermore, the first air guide ring is also provided with a notch to form an open observation window on the side of the first air guide ring for observing or installing a detection sensor to detect whether the steel ring is rotating.

[0012] Furthermore, the air guide ring includes four second air guide rings, which are symmetrically arranged to form a circular air guide ring. Each second air guide ring includes a first air guide arc plate, an air guide groove on the inner side of the first air guide arc plate, an upwardly inclined guide plate on the side of the air guide groove near the center of the steel collar, a first connecting rib on the back side of the first air guide arc plate, a reinforcing rib on the side of the first connecting rib, and a first buckle at the end of the first connecting rib for engaging the second air guide ring with the edge of the steel collar plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the air guide ring includes two third air guide rings, which are symmetrically arranged to form a circular air guide ring. The third air guide ring includes a second air guide arc plate, an air guide groove on the inner side of the second air guide arc plate, an upwardly inclined guide plate on the side of the air guide groove near the center of the steel collar, and two second connecting ribs on the back side of the second air guide arc plate. A second buckle is fixed at the intersection of the two second connecting ribs to snap the third air guide ring onto the edge of the steel collar plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the fourth embodiment of the air guide ring includes a fourth air guide ring, which is a circular ring structure. An air guide groove is provided on the inner side of the fourth air guide ring. A guide plate with an upward slope is provided on the side of the air guide groove near the center of the steel collar. An air flow channel is provided at the bottom of the air guide groove. The air flow channel has a plurality of first air outlets on the surface of the air guide groove, preferably three first air outlets. The air flow channel has a first air inlet on the fourth air guide ring. The first air inlet is used to connect to an auxiliary air source.

[0015] Furthermore, the fourth air guide ring is also provided with symmetrical first fixing lugs, which are fixed in the fixing holes of the steel collar plate by bolts.

[0016] Furthermore, the fifth embodiment of the air guide ring includes a fifth air guide ring, which is a circular ring structure. An air guide groove is provided on the inner side of the fifth air guide ring, and a second air inlet is connected to the air guide groove. The second air inlet is tangent to the air guide groove. The fifth air guide ring is also provided with symmetrical second fixing ears, which are fixed in the fixing holes of the steel collar plate by bolts.

[0017] Furthermore, the steel ring is provided with a first slope and a second slope. The first slope and the second slope form a first protrusion at the inner hinge of the steel ring that is closest to the center of the steel ring, so as to form two airflow channels inside the wire loop on the inner side of the steel ring, so that the wire loop is also subjected to force at its own corner.

[0018] Furthermore, the steel ring is fixed inside the stop of the steel ring plate, and the stop is provided with a through hole. A first gap is formed between the steel ring, the through hole, and the air guide ring to increase the flow channel of the annular airflow.

[0019] The positive effects of this invention are as follows: the air nozzle blows air along the side of the ring towards the ring. Part of the airflow pushes the top of the wire loop to slide on the top of the ring, while the other part of the airflow enters the air guide groove along the inner side of the ring, forming an annular airflow below the circumference of the ring. At the same time, an upward airflow is formed on the inner side of the ring. The annular airflow pushes the bottom of the wire loop to slide on the bottom of the ring, so that the top and bottom of the wire loop are simultaneously subjected to force. This changes the existing state where the top of the wire loop moves faster than the bottom on the ring, or vice versa. This ensures that the wire loop can slide smoothly under the guidance of the ring, realizing the wire loop threading action in yarn breakage splicing. In addition, because the airflow leaving the guide groove is blocked by the yarn roller on the yarn tube, part of it descends and part of it rises. The rising airflow exerts a lifting force on the wire loop, improving the force situation between the wire loop and the ring, making the wire loop almost suspended around the ring, alleviating the situation where the wire loop gets stuck on the ring.

[0036] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0037] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," "counterclockwise," "axial," "radial," and "circumferential" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0039] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 8 The diagram shows the structure of a wire traveler rotating device for wool spinning in a ring spinning machine according to an embodiment of the present invention. It includes an air guide ring fixed below the ring 3 and a wiring manipulator 11 movable above the side of the ring 3. The inner side of the air guide ring is provided with an air guide groove 802. The air nozzle 1102 in the wiring manipulator 11 blows air along the side of the ring 3 toward the ring. Part of the air flow pushes the top of the wire traveler 1 to slide on the top of the ring, and the other part of the air flow enters the air guide groove 802 along the inner side of the ring 3, forming an annular air flow below the circumference of the ring 3. At the same time, an upward air flow is formed on the inner side of the ring 3. The annular air flow pushes the bottom of the wire traveler 1 to slide on the bottom of the ring. The upward air flow forms a lifting force on the wire traveler 1, relieving the situation where the wire traveler 1 is stuck on the ring 3.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, the steel loop used in wool spinning is rectangular, with its length greater than 1.5 times its width. Because the steel loop contacts the top of the collar with its wide side, its center of gravity is located below the middle of the collar. When the yarn breaks, the steel loop loses its momentum. Using the structure in 202110647608.3, which utilizes annular airflow to propel the steel loop along the collar, regardless of whether the airflow is directed from the top or bottom, the steel loop's center of gravity, being below the middle of the collar, results in the top of the steel loop moving faster than the bottom, or vice versa. Ultimately, this causes the steel loop to become stuck on the outer surface of the collar and unable to continue moving along it. However, in this embodiment, the air nozzle 1102 blows airflow along the side of the collar 3 towards the collar, and a portion of the airflow pushes the top of the steel loop 1... As the top of the ring slides, another part of the airflow enters the air guide groove 802 along the inner side of the ring 3, forming an annular airflow below the circumference of the ring 3. The annular airflow pushes the bottom of the wire loop 1 to slide at the bottom of the ring, so that the top and bottom of the wire loop 1 are simultaneously stressed. This changes the existing state where the top of the wire loop moves faster than the bottom on the ring, or vice versa. This ensures that the wire loop can slide smoothly under the guidance of the ring, realizing the wire loop threading action in yarn breakage splicing. In addition, since the airflow leaving the guide groove is blocked by the yarn roller on the yarn tube 10, part of it descends and part of it rises. The rising airflow exerts a lifting force on the wire loop 1, improving the stress situation between the wire loop 1 and the ring 3, making the wire loop almost suspended around the ring, alleviating the situation where the wire loop 1 gets stuck on the ring 3.

[0042] Preferably, the air guide groove 802 has an upwardly angled guide plate 801 on the side closest to the center of the ring, so that the annular airflow leaving the air guide groove forms an upward airflow inside the ring. With this structure, the airflow leaving the guide groove is guided by the upwardly angled guide plate 801 and blocked by the yarn roller on the yarn tube 10, and almost all of it rises. The rising airflow exerts a lifting force on the traveler 1, improving the force situation between the traveler 1 and the ring 3, so that the traveler is almost suspended around the ring, further alleviating the situation where the traveler 1 gets stuck on the ring 3.

[0043] Preferred, such as Figure 4 As shown, the steel ring 3 is provided with a first slope 301 and a second slope 303. The first slope 301 and the second slope 303 form a first protrusion 302 at the inner hinge of the steel ring 3, which is closest to the center of the steel ring. With this design, two airflow channels are formed inside the steel wire ring 1 on the inner side of the steel ring, so that the steel wire ring 1 is also subjected to force at its own corner, and is subjected to force both inside and outside the steel wire ring 1, which further improves the stress condition of the steel wire ring 1.

[0044] Preferably, the steel ring 3 is fixed in the stop 201 of the steel ring plate 2. The stop 201 is provided with a through hole 202. A first gap 203 is formed between the steel ring 3, the through hole 202 and the air guide ring to increase the flow channel of the annular airflow.

[0045] Preferably, the first embodiment of the air guide ring is a first air guide ring 8, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the first air guide ring 8 is circular. The inner side of the first air guide ring 8 is provided with two steps of different heights. The higher step forms a first gap 203 with the steel ring 3 and the through hole 202 to increase the flow channel of the annular airflow. The lower step is an air guide groove 802. The air guide groove 802 has an upwardly inclined guide plate 801 on the side near the center of the steel ring. The first air guide ring 8 is also provided with a notch 803 to form an open observation window on the side of the first air guide ring 8 for observation or installation of a detection sensor to detect whether the steel ring is rotating.

[0046] Preferably, the second embodiment of the guide ring includes four second guide rings 310, such as... Figure 9 As shown, four symmetrically arranged second air guide rings 310 form a circular air guide ring. Each second air guide ring 310 includes a first air guide arc plate 311. The inner side of the first air guide arc plate 311 is provided with an air guide groove 802. The side of the air guide groove 802 near the center of the steel collar has an upwardly inclined guide plate 801. The back side of the first air guide arc plate 311 is provided with a first connecting rib 312. The side of the first connecting rib 312 is provided with a reinforcing rib 314. The end of the first connecting rib 312 is provided with a first buckle 313 for snapping the second air guide ring 310 onto the edge of the steel collar plate.

[0047] Preferably, the third embodiment of the air guide ring includes two third air guide rings 320. The two symmetrically arranged third air guide rings 320 form a circular air guide ring. The third air guide ring 320 includes a second air guide arc plate 323. The inner side of the second air guide arc plate 323 is provided with an air guide groove 802. The side of the air guide groove 802 near the center of the steel collar has an upwardly inclined guide plate 801. The back side of the second air guide arc plate 323 is provided with two second connecting ribs 322. A second buckle 321 is fixed at the intersection of the two second connecting ribs 322 for snapping the third air guide ring 320 onto the edge of the steel collar plate.

[0048] Preferably, the fourth embodiment of the air guide ring includes a fourth air guide ring 330, which is a circular ring structure. An air guide groove 802 is provided on the inner side of the fourth air guide ring 330. A guide plate 801 is inclined upwards on the side of the air guide groove 802 near the center of the steel collar. An air flow channel 334 is provided at the bottom of the air guide groove 802. The air flow channel 334 has several first air outlets 331 on the surface of the air guide groove 802, preferably three first air outlets 331. The air flow channel 334 is located within the fourth air guide ring 330. The first air inlet 333 is provided for connecting an auxiliary air source, rather than the air nozzle of the wiring manipulator 11, to provide auxiliary airflow for the air guide ring, so as to enhance the annular airflow formed in the air guide groove 802 and enhance the annular airflow formed by the inclined upward guide plate 801, so that the annular airflow leaving the air guide groove forms an upward airflow inside the steel ring. The fourth air guide ring 330 is also provided with symmetrical first fixing lugs 332, which are fixed in the fixing holes 5 of the steel ring plate by bolts.

[0049] Preferably, the fifth embodiment of the air guide ring includes a fifth air guide ring 340, which is a circular ring structure. An air guide groove 802 is provided on the inner side of the fifth air guide ring 340. The air guide groove 802 is connected to a second air inlet 342. The second air inlet 342 is tangent to the air guide groove 802 and is used to connect to an auxiliary air source, instead of the air nozzle of the wiring manipulator 11, to provide auxiliary airflow for the air guide ring. This enhances the annular airflow formed in the air guide groove 802 and enhances the airflow through the upwardly inclined guide plate 801, so that the annular airflow leaving the air guide groove forms an upward airflow inside the steel collar. The fifth air guide ring 340 is also provided with symmetrical second fixing lugs 341, which are fixed in the fixing holes 5 of the steel collar plate by bolts.

[0050] In practical use:

[0051] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the steel ring 3 is fixed to the side of the frame 6. A lifting device 7 is inserted into the steel ring 3. A yarn tube shaft 4 is fixed inside the lifting device 7. A yarn tube clamp 9 is fitted onto the outside of the yarn tube shaft 4. A yarn tube 10 is inserted into the outside of the yarn tube clamp 9. The lifting device 7 drives the yarn tube to move up and down inside the steel ring 3. When the wiring robot 11 carries the yarn... Figure 5When the air nozzle 1102 approaches the steel ring 3, it blows airflow towards the side of the steel ring 3, preferentially blowing the airflow diagonally downwards. The airflow provides thrust to the top of the wire coil 1 along the top of the steel ring 3. Excess airflow enters the air guide groove 802 along the inner side of the steel ring 3. Guided by the air guide groove 802, it forms an annular airflow below the circumference of the steel ring 3. The annular airflow pushes the bottom of the wire coil 1 to slide on the bottom of the steel ring, so that the top and bottom of the wire coil 1 are simultaneously subjected to force. This changes the existing technology where the top of the wire coil moves faster than the bottom on the steel ring. The movement state of the wire loop, or the movement state of the wire loop moving fast at the bottom and slow at the top on the ring, ensures that the wire loop can slide smoothly under the guidance of the ring, realizing the wire loop threading action in the yarn breakage and splicing. In addition, since the airflow leaving the guide groove is blocked by the yarn roller on the yarn tube 10, part of it descends and part of it rises. The rising airflow forms a pushing force on the wire loop 1, improving the force situation between the wire loop 1 and the ring 3, so that the wire loop is almost suspended around the ring, alleviating the situation where the wire loop 1 is stuck on the ring 3.
