AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The asymmetrical structure of the main arm of the grooved needle in traditional warp knitting machines increases air resistance, affecting the speed and accuracy of the oscillating mechanism, resulting in vibration and low knitting quality.

Method used

Several equally spaced first holes are made on the first panel of the main arm of the slotted needle to form a steep curved surface. The interference of the holes causes the airflow to turn into turbulence in advance, reducing pressure resistance and frictional heat. Combined with the arc-shaped curved surface and reinforcing ribs, the stability is improved.

Benefits of technology

By reducing air resistance, equipment vibration is reduced, weaving quality and production efficiency are improved, and control precision is enhanced.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a grooved needle main arm for a warp knitting machine, belonging to the field of grooved needle structure for warp knitting machines. Background Technology

[0002] The loop-forming motion of a warp knitting machine generally includes the movement of the groove needles, the movement of the needle core, the movement of the loop release needles, and the movement of the sinker. The groove needle movement and the needle core movement are composed of the up-and-down movement and oscillation of the groove needle core. In a warp knitting machine, the up-and-down movement and oscillation of the groove needle core are respectively accomplished by the corresponding groove needle core up-and-down movement mechanism and oscillation mechanism. Among the loop-forming motion mechanisms, the oscillation mechanism of the groove needle core is particularly important.

[0003] The warp threads are threaded onto the core of the grooved needle and driven by the main arm of the swing mechanism. The inclined and asymmetrical structural design of the traditional main arm will generate asymmetrical airflow or random turbulence when the warp threads pass through, which will increase the resistance when the swing arm moves, thereby limiting the maximum speed or acceleration of the swing mechanism. It is also prone to vibration, causing wear and thermal deformation of the swing arm, which will affect the control accuracy of the swing arm and result in low weaving quality and low production efficiency.

[0004] In response, this utility model provides a warp knitting machine groove needle main arm that can reduce air resistance. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a warp knitting machine groove needle main arm that can reduce air resistance.

[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A main arm for a warp knitting machine grooved needle includes a main body; the main body includes a first panel and a second panel perpendicular to the side end of the first panel.

[0008] The main body also includes a plurality of first holes, the first holes being opened on the first panel of the main body, the first panel being penetrated vertically by the first holes.

[0009] As a further improvement, the number of the first holes is three, which are evenly distributed on the first panel.

[0010] As a further improvement, it also includes a swing base and a swing shaft. There are two swing shafts, which are symmetrically arranged at the head end of the swing base. The swing shafts are installed on two second panels at the head end of the main body so that the swing base drives the main body to swing.

[0011] As a further improvement, both the first panel and the second panel are curved surfaces.

[0012] As a further improvement, a second hole is provided on the tail end face of the main body.

[0013] As a further improvement, a cover plate is also included, which is detachably fixed to the end face of the tail end of the main body and forms a complete circle with the second hole, so that the second hole engages with the shaft on the warp knitting machine.

[0014] As a further improvement, the main body also includes a reinforcing rib located between the two second panels, and the two ends of the reinforcing rib are fixed to the inner wall of the second panel.

[0015] As a further improvement, the diameter of the first hole is smaller than the width L of the first panel.

[0016] As a further improvement, the diameter of the first hole near the head end of the main body is larger than the diameters of the other two first holes.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By opening several first holes on the first panel of the main body, during the swinging process of this utility model, when the airflow flows over the surface of the object, along the steep curved surface of the first panel, the original laminar flow will separate from the surface at the beginning of the first panel to form a turbulent zone. Under the intervention of the first holes, the airflow is induced to change from laminar flow to turbulent flow in advance, causing the separation point to move backward, optimizing the flow field at the beginning of the first panel, reducing pressure resistance by 50%, reducing the frictional heat generated by air resistance, reducing equipment vibration, thereby improving the control accuracy of this utility model, and further improving the weaving quality and production efficiency.
