Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air-jet looms, in particular to a warp let-off mechanism of an air-jet velvet loom. Background Art
[0002] Air-jet looms are high-speed, shuttleless looms that use compressed air to eject weft yarn. They are widely used in the modern textile industry. Air-jet velvet looms are a special type of air-jet loom, specifically designed for producing velvet (such as velvet, coral fleece, corduroy, and other velvety fabrics). Based on traditional air-jet looms, they incorporate the technological requirements of velvet weaving, achieving efficient, high-quality velvet production through structural improvements and technological optimization.
[0003] The warp feeding mechanism of an air-jet velvet loom is one of its core systems. It is especially important for the differentiated tension control requirements of the ground warp (bottom layer) and the pile warp (loop layer) in velvet weaving, and needs to have the characteristics of high precision and dynamic response. However, the current warp feeding mechanism has the following main problems: (1) The tension of the ground warp and the pile warp is uncontrollable, which can easily lead to uneven pile height or warp breakage due to tension fluctuations; (2) The ground warp requires higher tension to form the basic structure of the fabric. The tension of the pile warp is usually lower than that of the ground warp to facilitate the formation of loops. However, the current ground warp only relies on a set of tension control devices to provide tension. Moreover, if the number of ground warps is large, it is impossible to control the tension of each layer of ground warp. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] See also Figure 1-7 A warp feeding mechanism of an air-jet velvet loom comprises two symmetrically arranged first wall panels 1 and two symmetrically arranged second wall panels 2. The upper parts of the two first wall panels 1 are rotatably connected to a first roller 3, a first winding drum 13 is fixed on the first roller 3, and velvet warp is wound on the first winding drum 13. The lower parts of the two first wall panels 1 are rotatably connected to a second roller 4, a second winding drum 14 is fixed on the second roller 4, and multiple layers of ground warp are wound on the second winding drum. The first wall panels 1 and the second wall panels 2 are both mounted on the frame of the air-jet velvet loom.
[0033] One of the first wall panels 1 is equipped with a first drive mechanism that controls the rotation of the first roller 3 and a second drive mechanism that controls the rotation of the second roller 4. A third roller 5 is rotatably connected to each of the two second wall panels 2, located to one side of the second roller 4. The first drive mechanism includes a first reduction motor 7 mounted on the outside of one of the first wall panels. A first transmission shaft is connected to the first reduction motor via a coupling, and a first gear is connected to the first transmission shaft. A second gear 8 is connected to one end of the first roller 3, and the first and second gears mesh. The second drive mechanism includes a second reduction motor 9 mounted on the outside of one of the first wall panels. A second transmission shaft is connected to the second transmission shaft via a coupling, and a third gear is connected to the second transmission shaft. A fourth gear 10 is connected to one end of the second roller 4, and the third and fourth gears mesh. The first reduction motor 7 rotates, driving the first transmission shaft to rotate. The first gear and the second gear 8 work together to drive the first roller 3, which in turn drives the first take-up drum 13 to release the pile warp. The second reduction motor 9 rotates, driving the second transmission shaft to rotate. Through the cooperation of the third gear and the fourth gear 10, the second roller 4 rotates, thereby driving the second winding drum 14 to rotate to release the ground warp. After the ground warp passes around the third roller 5, it overlaps with the pile warp.
[0034] A third tensioning roller group 12 is installed on one side of the second roller on the first wall panel 1, and the third tensioning roller group 12 includes a third bearing seat 1201 installed on the lower part of the two first wall panels, and the two third bearing seats 1201 are rotatably connected to the second shaft rod 1202, and the opposite ends of the two second shaft rods 1202 are fixedly connected to the second connecting plates 1203, and two third tensioning rollers 1204 are rotatably connected between the two second connecting plates 1203. The third tensioning roller group 1204 also includes a fourth pin shaft 1205 connected to the outer side of the first wall panel, and the fourth pin shaft 1205 is movably connected to the third tensioning cylinder 1206. The telescopic end of the third tensioning cylinder 1206 is pivotally connected to the second connecting rod 1207, and the second connecting rod 1207 is fixedly connected to the second shaft rod 1202 on the corresponding side. The ground warp is released from the second winding drum 14, passes between the two third tensioning rollers 1204 and is then transported to the third roller 5. By controlling the operation of the third tensioning cylinder 1206, the second connecting rod 1207 can be driven to swing, and the second connecting rod 1207 drives the second connecting plate 1203 to rotate through the second shaft 1202, thereby driving the two third tensioning rollers 1204 to deflect together, thereby realizing the tensioning of the ground warp.
[0035] A first tensioning roller group 6 is provided on the two first wall panels 1 between the first roller and the second roller. The first tensioning roller group 6 includes a support plate 601 installed on the opposite sides of the two first wall panels. The support plate 601 extends toward the third roller 5. The two support plates 601 are located between the first roller 3 and the second roller 4. A plurality of first pins 602 are fixedly connected to the end of the support plate 601 away from the third roller. Each first pin 602 is pivotally connected to a first tensioning cylinder 603. All first tensioning cylinders 603 are arranged in parallel. The number of first tensioning cylinders 603 on the two support plates 601 is the same and corresponds one to one. The telescopic ends of the two corresponding first tensioning cylinders 603 on the two support plates 601 are connected to a first bearing seat 604, and the first tensioning rollers 605 are rotatably connected to the two first bearing seats 604. After the multiple layers of ground warp pass through the third roller 5, each layer of ground warp passes through each first tensioning roller 605, separating the ground warps into multiple groups. By controlling the operation of any first tensioning cylinder 603, the corresponding ground warp can be tensioned, achieving control over the tension of any ground warp layer. Combined with the coordination of the third tensioning roller group, the tension of the ground warp can be increased, making it greater than that of the pile warp, facilitating pile loop formation.
[0036] A second tensioning roller group 11 is installed on one side of the first roller on the first wall panel 1, and the second tensioning roller group 11 includes a fourth roller 1101 rotatably connected to the two first wall panels, and a second bearing seat 1102 installed on the upper part of the two first wall panels. The two second bearing seats 1102 are rotatably connected to the first shaft rod 1103, and the opposite ends of the two first shaft rods 1103 are fixedly connected to the first connecting plate 1104. A second tensioning roller 1105 is rotatably connected between the two first connecting plates 1104. The second tensioning roller group 11 also includes a second pin shaft 1106 connected to the outer side of the first wall panel, and a second tensioning cylinder 1107 is pivotally connected to the second pin shaft 1106. The telescopic end of the second tensioning cylinder 1107 is movably connected to the first connecting rod 1108, and the first connecting rod 1108 is fixedly connected to the first shaft rod 1103 on the corresponding side. The pile warp is released by the first winding drum 13. The second tensioning cylinder 1107 is controlled to operate, causing the first connecting rod 1108 to swing. The first connecting rod 1108, via the first shaft 1103, rotates the first connecting plate 1104, thereby causing the second tensioning roller 1105 to deflect, adjusting the distance between the second tensioning roller 1105 and the fourth roller 1101, thereby tensioning the pile warp. After the pile warp overlaps with the ground warp, it lies above the ground warp and is then fed into the subsequent process.
[0037] Example 2
[0038] Based on Example 1, the second tensioning roller assembly 11 further includes a third pin 1109 connected to the outside of the first wall panel and located next to the second pin. A first tensioning spring 1110 is connected to the third pin 1109. The first tensioning spring 1110 is connected to the first connecting rod 1108. A first tension sensor 1111 is mounted on the first tensioning spring 1110. When the first connecting rod 1108 swings, the first tension sensor 1111 senses the tension of the pile warp, thereby enabling accurate monitoring of the pile warp tension.
[0039] The third tensioning roller assembly 12 also includes a fifth pin 1208 connected to the outside of the first wall panel and located next to the fourth pin. A second tensioning spring 1209 is connected to the fifth pin 1208. The second tensioning spring 1209 is connected to the second connecting rod 1207. A second tension sensor 1210 is mounted on the second tensioning spring 1209. When the second connecting rod 1107 swings, the second tension sensor 1210 senses the tension in the ground warp, enabling precise monitoring of the ground warp tension.
