However, it should be understood that these descriptions are only for further illustrating the features and advantages of this utility model, and not for limiting the patent claims of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0015] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0016] Example 1

[0017] See Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the tension adjustment device for an air-jet loom involved in this embodiment includes a base plate 1, on which a yarn inlet plate 2 and a yarn outlet plate 3 are provided. The yarn inlet plate 2 has a yarn inlet hole (not shown), and the yarn outlet plate 3 has a yarn outlet hole (not shown). A multi-leaf cam 4 is rotatably connected to the base plate between the yarn inlet plate 2 and the yarn outlet plate 3. The number of leaves of the multi-leaf cam 4 is N, where N≥6. Adjustment plates 5 are arranged in a ring array with the same number of leaves as the multi-leaf cam 4 and at equal intervals around the axis. The adjustment plates 5 move closer to or away from the multi-leaf cam 4. The adjustment plates 5 are fan-shaped, and the bottom of the adjustment plates 5 is arc-shaped and abuts against the wheel surface of the multi-leaf cam 4.

[0018] Each of the aforementioned adjustment plates 5 and the base plate 1 is provided with a reset assembly that allows the adjustment plate to continuously press against the multi-leaf cam.

[0019] The multi-leaf cam 4 is connected to an adjustment mechanism that controls its rotation.

[0020] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes a worm wheel 6 arranged coaxially with the multi-leaf cam 4, a worm 7 rotatably connected to the base plate meshing on the worm wheel 6, a driven bevel gear 8 at one end of the worm 7, a driving bevel gear 9 rotatably connected to the base plate meshing on the driven bevel gear 8, and an adjustment handwheel (not shown) coaxially arranged on the driving bevel gear 9 for controlling rotation.

[0021] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes a limiting hole 10 formed on the base plate 1 and extending radially along the multi-leaf cam. A movable pin 11 is slidably connected in the limiting hole 10. The movable pin 11 is connected to the adjusting plate 5. A fixing pin 12 is fixedly connected to the base plate between the movable pin 11 and the axis of the multi-leaf cam 4. A tension spring 13 with one end connected to the fixing pin and the other end connected to the movable pin is provided between the fixing pin 12 and the movable pin 11.

[0022] Furthermore, each of the adjusting plates 5 is provided with a linear guide rail 14 extending radially along the multi-leaf cam between it and the base plate 1. A linear slider (not shown) is slidably connected to the linear guide rail 14, and the adjusting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the linear slider.

[0023] In this embodiment, the yarn first passes through the inlet hole, then winds around all the adjusting plates 5, and finally exits through the outlet hole. When it is necessary to increase the tension during yarn feeding, the adjusting handwheel can be turned clockwise, driving the worm gear and multi-leaf cam 4 to rotate, pushing each adjusting plate 5 outwards. The overall contour formed by all the adjusting plates 5 increases, thus increasing the yarn feeding tension. When it is necessary to decrease the tension during yarn feeding, the adjusting handwheel can be turned counterclockwise, driving the worm gear and multi-leaf cam 4 to rotate. The adjusting plates 5 retract inwards, reducing the overall contour formed by all the adjusting plates 5, thus decreasing the yarn feeding tension.

[0024] The reset component is configured to automatically reset the adjustment plate 5.

[0025] The linear guide rail 14, in conjunction with the linear slider, serves as a sliding guide for the adjustment plate 5 when it moves relative to the base plate 1.

[0026] The tension adjustment device for an air-jet loom involved in this utility model can simultaneously adjust the distance between each adjustment plate relative to the multi-leaf cam by manually adjusting the circumferential position of the multi-leaf cam, thereby changing the circumference of the winding outline and realizing the tension adjustment function of the winding yarn. The overall function is complete and highly practical.
