Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computerized flat knitting machine technology, and in particular to a yarn bobbin placement rack for computerized flat knitting machines. Background Technology

[0002] Computerized flat knitting machines are a type of double-needle plate-latch weft knitting machine. Compared to ordinary knitting machines, computerized flat knitting machines are highly automated machines with advanced technology in the knitting machine industry. They integrate computer digital control, electronic drive, and mechanical design technologies. When working, computerized flat knitting machines draw yarn from yarn bobbins for knitting.

[0003] In existing operating methods, yarn bobbins are typically placed directly on the computerized flat knitting machine. However, this method results in the bottom of the bobbin being in direct contact with the machine, leading to significant friction between them. When the machine extracts yarn from the bobbin, some yarn may get stuck at the bottom of the bobbin. The high friction between the bottom of the bobbin and the machine can cause the yarn to break or the entire bobbin to tip over. This indirectly increases the workload of factory workers and reduces the factory's production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a yarn bobbin placement rack for computerized flat knitting machines, which can solve the problem that when yarn bobbins are placed directly on the computerized flat knitting machine, the friction between the bottom of the yarn bobbin and the machine is large. If the yarn is accidentally stuck at the bottom of the yarn bobbin when the machine is removing the yarn from the bobbin, it can easily cause the yarn to break or the yarn bobbin to tip over, resulting in low workload for factory workers and low factory production efficiency.

[0005] This application provides a yarn bobbin holder for a computerized flat knitting machine, including a base, a positioning rod mounted on the base, a flexible support block mounted on the base, a baffle plate on the outer side of the flexible support block, the baffle plate being mounted on the base, an mounting block being fixedly connected to the positioning rod, the outer circumference of the mounting block being arc-shaped, a slider being provided on the outer side of the mounting block, a groove being formed inside the slider, the groove fitting against the arc of the outer side of the mounting block, chamfers being formed at the upper and lower ends of the groove, and a support component being mounted on the outer side of the slider.

[0006] Furthermore, the soft support block is a sponge block.

[0007] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a telescopic rod, a spring, and a support block. The telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the slider, the support block is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod, and a spring is installed between the support block and the slider. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the support block.

[0008] Furthermore, one end of the support block is inclined.

[0009] Furthermore, several magnets are embedded in the bottom of the base.

[0010] In summary, this application discloses a yarn bobbin placement rack for a computerized flat knitting machine. By placing a base on the machine and installing a soft support block inside the base to support the yarn bobbin, the soft support block, due to its flexible nature, prevents the yarn from breaking due to excessive friction even if it gets stuck at the bottom of the bobbin. The support assembly, which supports the winding bobbin on the soft support block, prevents it from tipping over. This design reduces the workload of workers and increases factory production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The following description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, and the scope of protection is not limited to this embodiment. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model should be considered within the protection scope of this utility model. It should also 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.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a yarn bobbin holder for a computerized flat knitting machine includes a base 1. Several magnets 13 are embedded in the lower surface of the base 1. The base 1 is placed directly on the computerized flat knitting machine, and the magnetic force of the magnets 13 causes the base 1 to adhere directly to the machine, providing stability to the entire holder. A positioning rod 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1, located at the center of the base 1. A flexible support block 3, made of sponge, is placed on the upper surface of the base 1, passing through the top of the positioning rod 2. A baffle 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 1 to restrict the movement of the flexible support block 3. An mounting block 5 is fixedly connected to the positioning rod 2, with an arc-shaped outer circumference. A [missing information - likely a design feature] is provided on the outer side of the mounting block 5. A slider 6 has a groove 7 inside it. The shape of the groove 7 is the same as the arc shape of the outer circumference of the mounting block 5, and the groove 7 and the arc shape of the outer circumference of the mounting block 5 fit together. The slider 6 can slide on the mounting block 5. Chamfers 8 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the groove 7, which can make the slider 6 slide better on the mounting block 5 and prevent the slider 6 from getting stuck. A support component 9 is installed on the slider 6. The support component 9 is used to support the yarn bobbin. The yarn bobbin is directly lowered through the positioning rod 2. The bottom of the yarn bobbin contacts the soft support block 3, which is a sponge block. Due to the softness of the sponge, even if the yarn is stuck in the bottom of the sponge block and the yarn bobbin, the sponge block will create a gap for the yarn to move under the pressure, so that the yarn will not break.

[0018] The support assembly 9 includes telescopic rods 10, springs 11, and support blocks 12. Several telescopic rods 10 are mounted on the slider 6, arranged in a ring. One end of each telescopic rod 10 is fixedly connected to the slider 6, and the other end is fixedly connected to the support block 12. A spring 11 is installed between the support block 12 and the slider 6. One end of the spring 11 is fixedly connected to the support block 12, and the other end is fixedly connected to the slider 6. The spring 11 is fitted onto the telescopic rods 10. The top of the support block 12 is inclined. When the yarn bobbin is lowered from the positioning rod 2, the support block 12 is compressed, causing it to contract under the action of the spring 11. This allows the support block 12 to be pressed against the inner wall of the yarn tube, providing support. The tilt of the support block 12 helps the yarn tube to fall down more easily. However, due to the softness of the sponge block, the yarn tube may tip over. If the positioning rod 2 is used for support alone, the pressure will be concentrated at the tilted end of the yarn tube. If the yarn gets stuck at the bottom of the yarn tube at this time, it will also cause the yarn to break. To avoid this unnecessary situation, when the yarn tube tilts, the slider 6 will tilt along with the yarn tube under the action of the support block 12. This ensures that the pressure of the yarn tube is always at the same level, which can better prevent the yarn from breaking again.
