Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of sock machines, in particular to a fast and stable socks moving auxiliary device. Background Art
[0002] Ordinary socks knitting generally adopts two processes: sock body knitting and sock toe sewing, which are completed by two devices, a sock knitting machine and a sock toe sewing machine. Not only is the production efficiency low, but the operation is cumbersome and the labor intensity is high, and the overall quality of the socks products is also affected to a certain extent. The sock knitting machine is a modern knitting equipment with a high degree of intelligence and mechatronics technology. It completes the two processes of sock body knitting and sock toe sewing on the same device. Since the position of knitting the sock body and the position of sewing the sock toe are different, the socks need to be moved to the position of sock toe sewing after the sock body is knitted. The sock feeding system currently used to transfer socks mainly includes a sock grabbing mechanism, a column, a sock suction tube and a sock feeding pipeline. The existing technology is to drive the column and the sock suction tube by a servo motor set on the column, so that it swings a certain angle to align with the sock grabbing mechanism, and sucks the socks into the sock suction tube, thereby completing the sock transfer work.
[0003] At present, this method of moving socks has the following defects: first, when moving the socks, only the pulling force of the sock grabbing mechanism during rotation is used to pull the sock body out of the needle cylinder, and the sock body itself fits against the needle in the needle cylinder, resulting in a large friction force, which is not only easy to have an adverse effect on the sock body, but also significantly affects the speed of moving the socks, thereby affecting the overall production efficiency; second, the sock grabbing mechanism rotates to pull part of the sock body out, and since a part of the sock body is still left in the needle cylinder, a certain angle is formed, so that the sock body is unevenly stressed, resulting in an unstable sock moving action, which directly affects the smooth removal of the sock body from the needle cylinder, especially for the transfer of long stockings.

[0030] The working principle of the above utility model is as follows:
[0031] In actual use of the utility model, after the socks are knitted, they need to be moved to another position of the same device for sewing. Figure 1 As shown: the quick and stable sock moving auxiliary device is installed between the needle cylinder and the sock grabbing mechanism. The cap cover 102 is above the needle cylinder 101, and the sock turning and sewing device is below the sock grabbing mechanism 103. The cap cover 102 can be raised and lowered and rotated, and the sock grabbing mechanism 103 can also be raised and lowered and rotated. When the sock body is knitted in the needle cylinder 101, the cap cover 102 is raised and rotated to a certain angle to make the space above the needle cylinder opening. At this time, the sock grabbing mechanism 103 rotates to a certain angle so that the sock grabbing mechanism 103 is above the needle cylinder 102 and directly facing the needle cylinder opening, which is conducive to sock grabbing. When the sock body is grabbed by the grabbing mechanism and rotates to a certain angle, it is detected by the sock moving detector, and the driven wheel lifting cylinder 14 starts to work, and the driven wheel 5 is raised to the working position through the bead rack guide rail 10. Then the driven wheel air cylinder 14 starts to work and lifts the driven wheel 5 to the working position through the bead rack guide rail 10. The cylinder 14 starts to push the driven wheel swing mechanism 12, and the driven wheel swing mechanism 12 rises to make the driven wheel shaft 13 flip 90 degrees, so that its center line changes from being perpendicular to the center line of the driving motor shaft to being parallel to the center line of the driving motor shaft, thereby cooperating with the driving wheel 3 to press the sock body moved above the driving wheel 3, and then according to the computer control instruction, the driving wheel starts to rotate, and works together with the driven wheel to move the sock body to the set position, so that the socks can be smoothly sucked into the sock suction tube and enter the next seaming process.
[0032] The utility model can significantly improve the overall work efficiency, and also realizes uniform force on the sock body, stable and smooth sock moving action, and improves the sock moving speed without causing adverse effects on the sock body.
