Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of loom equipment technology, and in particular to a novel front water baffle assembly for a water jet loom. Background Technology
[0002] The front water shield assembly is an important component of looms, especially water jet looms. Its function is to prevent water splashing when water jet looms use water flow to guide the weft yarn through the shed, thus avoiding excessive wetting of the warp yarns and fabric. This reduces fabric quality problems caused by water, such as stains and deformation, while also protecting other parts of the loom from water corrosion and extending the loom's service life.
[0003] Existing water-retaining cover assemblies are mainly divided into two categories: transparent plastic and stainless steel. The advantages of using transparent plastic are light weight, low cost, and visibility. The disadvantages are that it may deform or age during high temperature or long-term use, especially at the support shaft. The advantages of using stainless steel are high strength, high temperature resistance, and resistance to deformation, which can adapt to the high-speed operation of the loom and complex working environment. However, metal water-retaining covers are heavier, have a relatively high cost, and require rust prevention treatment. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of front water baffle assembly for water jet looms that is resistant to deformation, has a long service life, is lightweight and has a stable connection.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel front water baffle assembly for a water jet loom, comprising a plastic water baffle, an aluminum support shaft, and several bolt units for connecting the plastic water baffle and the aluminum support shaft. The aluminum support shaft includes a support shaft body and a support cross plate extending outward from the support shaft body. Each bolt unit includes a bolt, a silicone gasket, and a nut. The bolt passes through the plastic water baffle, the silicone gasket, and the support cross plate before being connected to the nut.
[0006] Preferably, the plastic water-blocking cover is further provided with several handle units, each handle unit including a handle, a bolt, a silicone gasket and a nut, the bolt passing through the handle, the plastic water-blocking cover and the silicone gasket and then connected to the nut.
[0007] Preferably, the handle is a polished stainless steel bent sheet, and the front end of the plastic water-blocking cover is a downwardly sloping front edge, forming an operating space between the front edge and the stainless steel bent sheet that allows fingers to be inserted.
[0008] Preferably, the end of the supporting cross plate is bent downwards and has a folded edge.
[0009] This invention has the following advantages over existing technologies: the water-blocking cover assembly is composed of parts made of different materials, improving its practicality. Specifically, the water-blocking cover support shaft is made of aluminum profile, reducing weight while maintaining a certain strength, preventing the bending and deformation of plastic support shafts in existing technologies. The water-blocking cover is made of high-transparency plastic material, allowing operators to more clearly observe the internal operation of the loom during use, and the support cross plate reinforces the plastic water-blocking cover. The plastic water-blocking cover and the aluminum support shaft are sealed and fixedly connected by several bolt units. The use of multiple bolt units ensures a stable connection. The bolts pass through the plastic water-blocking cover, silicone gasket, and support cross plate before connecting to the nut, ensuring a stable connection and providing waterproofing through the silicone gasket.

[0013] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0014] like Figure 1 As shown, a novel front water-jet loom water-blocking cover assembly includes a plastic water-blocking cover 1, an aluminum support shaft 2, and several bolt 4 units for connecting the plastic water-blocking cover 1 and the aluminum support shaft 2. The aluminum support shaft 2 includes a support shaft body and a support cross plate 3 extending outward from the support shaft body. Each bolt 4 unit includes a bolt 4, a silicone gasket 5, and a nut 6. The bolt 4 passes through the plastic water-blocking cover 1, the silicone gasket 5, and the support cross plate 3 before being connected to the nut 6.
[0015] This solution presents a novel front water-jet loom baffle assembly. The baffle assembly is composed of parts made of different materials, enhancing its practicality. Specifically, the baffle support shaft is an aluminum support shaft 2 made of aluminum profile, reducing weight while maintaining sufficient strength and preventing bending and deformation as seen in existing plastic support shafts. The baffle itself is a plastic baffle 1 made of high-transparency plastic, allowing operators to clearly observe the loom's internal operation during use. The support cross plate 3 further reinforces the plastic baffle 1. The plastic baffle 1 and the aluminum support shaft 2 are sealed and fixedly connected by several bolt units 4. The use of multiple bolt units 4 ensures a stable connection. Each bolt 4 passes through the plastic baffle 1, a silicone gasket 5, and the support cross plate 3 before connecting to a nut 6. The connection is stable, and the silicone gasket 5 provides a waterproof seal at the joint.
[0016] Furthermore, the plastic water-retaining cover 1 is also provided with several handle units 7. Each handle unit 7 includes a handle 7, a bolt 4, a silicone gasket 5, and a nut 6. The bolt 4 passes through the handle 7, the plastic water-retaining cover 1, and the silicone gasket 5 before connecting to the nut 6. The handle 7 facilitates the operator in opening and lowering the plastic water-retaining cover 1. The handle 7 is fixed to the plastic water-retaining cover 1 by the bolt 4, the silicone gasket 5, and the nut 6, ensuring a stable connection and providing a waterproof seal at the connection point.
[0017] Furthermore, the handle 7 is a polished stainless steel bent sheet, and the front end of the plastic water-retaining cover 1 is a downwardly sloping front edge 8. An operating space 9, allowing fingers to be inserted, is formed between the front edge 8 and the stainless steel bent sheet. The handle 7 is made entirely of polished stainless steel, ensuring both durability and aesthetic appeal. The operating space 9, with its relatively large opening, allows fingers to easily insert themselves.
[0018] Furthermore, the end of the supporting cross plate 3 is bent downwards and provided with a folded edge 10. The folded edge 10 can prevent the corners from cutting the assembly personnel and can abut against the plastic water-retaining cover 1 to play a pre-positioning role.
[0019] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
