[0002] Rapier looms are widely used in various fields of the textile industry, including the production of clothing fabrics, home textile products, industrial textiles, etc. The driving mechanism of the rapier loom is the key part to ensure the normal operation of the loom. It is responsible for driving the rapier, reed and other key components to perform reciprocating motion to complete the process of weft insertion and beating-up. The driving mechanism is realized by the main motor transmitting the power to other components of the loom through pulleys, etc. The existing driving mechanism usually uses ordinary motors, which are difficult to accurately control during speed regulation. In addition, due to the tightness of the transmission belt, the pulley will slip during transmission, resulting in inaccurate speed regulation, thereby affecting the quality of the product.

[0005] It further includes a motor support, the variable frequency motor is slidably connected to the motor support, and the variable frequency motor slides relative to the motor support to adjust the distance between the main pulley and the slave pulley. The motor support is provided with a limiting mechanism that cooperates with the variable frequency motor.

[0008] Furthermore, the wheel rim is provided with an elastic reset plate that cooperates to block the tooth hole and the oil storage chamber. When the tooth shape of the transmission belt enters the tooth hole, it contacts the elastic reset plate. The elastic reset plate moves or deforms to connect the tooth hole with the oil storage chamber. After the tooth shape leaves the tooth hole, the elastic reset plate resets to block the tooth hole and the oil storage chamber.

[0016] The embodiment of the present utility model: Figures 1 to 5As shown, a rapier loom with precise speed regulation includes a driving mechanism and a frame 1. The frame is provided with a weft insertion mechanism and a weft beating mechanism. The weft insertion mechanism and the weft beating mechanism are mechanically driven by the driving mechanism. The driving mechanism includes a frequency conversion motor 2, a main pulley 3, a slave pulley 4, and a transmission belt 5. The main pulley 3 is installed on the output shaft of the frequency conversion motor 2 and is driven to rotate by the frequency conversion motor 2. The slave pulley 4 is transferred to the frame 1. The transmission belt 5 is sleeved on the rims of the main pulley 3 and the slave pulley 4. When the main pulley 3 rotates, it drives the slave pulley 4 through the transmission belt 5. The pulley 4 rotates, and the frequency conversion motor 2 changes the supply frequency through the inverter to achieve stepless speed regulation, thereby improving operating efficiency and accuracy. The transmission belt 5 is a toothed belt with a tooth profile 6 on its inner circumference. The rims of the main pulley 3 and the slave pulley 4 are provided with tooth holes 7 that mesh with the tooth profile 6. When the transmission belt 5 is mounted on the slave pulley 4 and the main pulley 3, the tooth profile 6 on the inner circumference meshes with the tooth holes 7, thereby keeping the circumference of the transmission belt 5 unchanged and not sliding relative to the slave pulley 4 and the main pulley 3, thereby ensuring synchronous transmission, improving transmission accuracy, and realizing precise speed regulation of the rapier loom.
[0017] As a preferred embodiment, it includes a motor support 8, and the frequency conversion motor 2 is installed on the motor support 8 through the motor base. The motor support 8 is provided with a slot 9 along the length direction, and the motor base is provided with a corresponding screw hole. The bolt passes through the slot 9 and the screw hole and is connected with the nut. When the bolt and the nut are loosened, the motor base slides on the motor support 8 to adjust the distance between the main pulley 3 and the slave pulley 4 to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the transmission belt 5, and then the nut is tightened to fix it on the motor support 8. In order to better fix it and prevent it from moving, the two ends of the motor support 8 are spirally connected with a push rod 14. After tightening the nut to fix it on the motor support 8, the push rod 14 is rotated so that the push rods 14 at both ends tighten the two ends of the motor base.
[0018] As a preferred embodiment, the rims of the main pulley 3 and the slave pulley 4 have a V-shaped belt groove 10, the cross-section of the transmission belt 5 is correspondingly V-shaped, and it is limitedly installed in the V-shaped belt groove 10. The tooth hole 7 is provided at the bottom of the V-shaped belt groove 10, which better limits the transmission belt 5 and facilitates the precise matching of the transmission belt 5 with the main pulley 3 and the slave pulley 4.
[0019] As a preferred embodiment, at least one of the slave pulley 3 and the main pulley 4 is provided with an inner cylinder 11 coaxially distributed therewith. As in the present application, the slave pulley 3 is cylindrical, and its hub is located on one side of the rim. A slot is provided on the inner side of the hub. The inner end of the inner cylinder 11 is placed in the slot, and the outer end is fixedly connected to the side of the slave pulley 3 away from the hub, so that an oil storage chamber 12 connected to the tooth hole 4 is formed between the inner cylinder 11 and the rim of the slave pulley 3. A refueling nozzle is provided on the inner cylinder 11, and lubricating grease can be added to the oil storage chamber 12 through the refueling nozzle. When the tooth shape 6 of the transmission belt 5 enters the tooth hole 4, it will come into contact with the lubricating grease, thereby achieving the effect of lubricating it, thereby reducing the wear of the transmission belt 5 and extending its service life.
[0020] As a preferred embodiment, the inner circumference of the rim of the pulley (such as the pulley 3) is provided with an elastic reset sheet 13 that blocks the tooth hole 4 from the oil storage chamber 12. For example, in this application, a pair of elastic reset sheets 13 are provided at each tooth hole 4. The elastic reset sheet 13 has elastic reset capability. Figure 5 As shown, in the absence of external force, the elastic reset plate 13 is in a state of blocking the tooth hole 4 and the oil storage chamber 12, preventing the lubricating grease in the oil storage chamber 12 from flowing out of the tooth hole 4 and volatilizing. When the tooth shape 6 of the transmission belt 5 enters the tooth hole 4, the elastic reset plate 13 is pushed open, and the top of the tooth shape 6 enters the oil storage chamber and contacts the lubricating grease. After the tooth shape 6 leaves the tooth hole 4, the elastic reset plate 13 is reset to block the tooth hole 4 and the oil storage chamber 12, thereby achieving lubrication of the transmission belt 5 and efficient use of the lubricant.
