DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described 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: Please refer to Figures 1-6, when the existing yarn storage device is winding the yarn, it is not convenient to perform intelligent real-time monitoring of the yarn tension. When the yarn tension is too large or too small, it is not convenient to effectively adjust the yarn tension. In order to solve this technical problem, the present embodiment discloses the following technical content: a yarn storage device for a CNC knitting circular weft knitting machine, comprising a base 1, a first motor 2 is fixedly mounted on the base 1, and a guide yarn drum 3 is mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 2, a controller 4 is fixedly connected to the base 1, the output shaft of the first motor 2 is connected to the reciprocating screw rod 6 through a pulley 5, and a moving block 7 is mounted on the reciprocating screw rod 6, a vertical rod 8 is installed through the moving block 7, and the vertical rod 8 is fixed on the base 1, a limit rod 9 is fixedly mounted on the moving block 7, and a tension detection and adjustment component is installed in the middle of the moving block 7, and the ends of the tension detection and adjustment component and the limit rod 9 are both equipped with a winding wheel 11 for guiding the yarn, the moving block 7 and the reciprocating screw rod 6 are threadedly connected, and the moving block 7 can slide on the vertical rod 8. The tension detection and adjustment component includes a movable rod 10, a tension sensor 12, an adjusting screw 13 and a second motor 14, and the tension sensor 12 is installed on the side of the movable rod 10, and the adjusting screw 13 is installed in the middle of the movable rod 10, and the adjusting screw 13 is fixed on the output end of the second motor 14. The cross-section of the movable rod 10 is set to be rectangular, and the outer wall of the end of the movable rod 10 and the inner wall of the moving block 7 are in contact with each other, and the movable rod 10 can slide on the moving block 7.
[0032] When the yarn needs to be wound, the yarn is passed through the limit rod 9 on the moving block 7 and the winding wheel 11 at the end of the movable rod 10 and fixed to the guide yarn drum 3. At this time, the first motor 2 is turned on. After the first motor 2 is turned on, the guide yarn drum 3 can be rotated, and the yarn can be wound by the rotation of the guide yarn drum 3. At the same time, after the first motor 2 rotates, the pulley 5 can be used to drive the reciprocating screw rod 6 to rotate. After the reciprocating screw rod 6 rotates, the threaded moving block 7 can be moved back and forth along the vertical direction of the vertical rod 8. The up and down reciprocating movement of the moving block 7 can make the yarn uniform. The yarn is wound on the guide yarn drum 3, and when the yarn is wound, the tension of the yarn can be detected by the tension sensor 12 on the movable rod 10. When the yarn tension is too large or too small, the tension sensor 12 transmits the signal to the controller 4, and the controller 4 controls the second motor 14 to turn on. After the second motor 14 is turned on, the adjusting screw rod 13 can be rotated. By rotating the adjusting screw rod 13, the threaded movable rod 10 and the winding wheel 11 at the end can be moved on the moving block 7. The position of the winding wheel 11 at the end of the movable rod 10 changes, and the tension of the yarn can be adjusted.
[0033] Example 2: The technical content disclosed in this embodiment is a further improvement based on the above-mentioned Example 1. When the storage drum is winding the yarn, when the winding amount of the yarn reaches the maximum value, it is not convenient to transmit the signal to the controller 4 to realize the automatic stop of the storage drum winding. In order to further solve this technical problem, this embodiment discloses the following technical content. The side of the guide yarn drum 3 is equipped with an in-place monitoring component. The in-place monitoring component is used to control the guide yarn drum 3 to stop winding after the winding amount of the guide yarn drum 3 reaches the limit. The in-place monitoring component includes a vertical plate 15, a connecting post 16, a power wheel 17, a side plate 18, a return spring 19, and a pressure sensor 20. The vertical plate 15 is fixed to the base 1. The connecting post 16 is installed through the vertical plate 15, and the power wheel 17 is installed on the end of the connecting post 16 near the guide yarn drum 3. The side plate 18 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting post 16, and one side plate 18 on the connecting post 16 is connected to the vertical plate 15 by the return spring 19. The pressure sensor 20 is installed on the outer side of the other side plate 18 on the connecting post 16, and the pressure sensor 20 is fixed to the vertical plate 15. The connecting post 16 and the vertical plate 15 are slidably connected, and the side plate 18 on one side of the connecting post 16 and the pressure sensor 20 on the vertical plate 15 are on the same horizontal line. The first motor 2 and the second motor 14 are both electrically connected to the controller 4, and the tension sensor 12 and the pressure sensor 20 are also electrically connected to the controller 4.
[0034] In the initial state, the power wheel 17 and the guide yarn drum 3 fit together. As the guide yarn drum 3 rotates to reel in the yarn, the winding diameter of the yarn increases, thereby pushing the power wheel 17 and the connecting column 16 to move on the vertical plate 15. When the yarn winding amount on the guide yarn drum 3 reaches the maximum, the side plate 18 on the connecting column 16 squeezes the pressure sensor 20 on the vertical plate 15. After the pressure sensor 20 is pressurized, it transmits a signal to the controller 4. The controller 4 controls the first motor 2 to turn off, thereby stopping the winding of the guide yarn drum 3.
[0035] The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0036] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
