[0032] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood through the specific circumstances.
[0033] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model provides a warp tension adjusting component for a rapier loom, comprising:
[0035] The base plate 1 is equipped with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the warp tension of the rapier loom. It should be noted that the adjustment mechanism can automatically adjust the warp tension of the rapier loom, and also facilitates the installation and removal of the tension adjustment roller 5 and the pressure sensor 6, which is convenient for later maintenance or replacement.
[0036] The adjustment mechanism includes a side plate 2, a T-block 1 4, a tension adjustment roller 5, a pressure sensor 6, an upper panel 7, a lower panel 8, a T-block 2 9, a T-block 3 10, and a rectangular plate 14;
[0037] Side plate 2 is fixedly installed on the top of base plate 1. T-block 4 is vertically slidably installed on side plate 2. Tension adjusting roller 5 is rotatably installed on T-block 4. Upper panel 7 and lower panel 8 are installed on pressure sensor 6. It should be noted that pressure sensor 6 is connected to an external controller. When pressure sensor 6 senses that the pressure value is not within the set range, hydraulic cylinder 11 can be activated to adjust the position of tension adjusting roller 5, thus automatically adjusting the warp tension of the rapier loom.
[0038] The bottom of T-block 14 is fixedly connected to T-block 29, T-block 29 is snapped into the upper panel 7, T-block 310 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower panel 8, and T-block 310 is snapped into the rectangular plate 14.
[0039] Through the aforementioned adjustment mechanism, when maintenance or replacement of the tension adjusting roller 5 and pressure sensor 6 is required, the rectangular plate 14 is moved upward. The rectangular plate 14 drives the lower panel 8 upward via T-block three 10. The lower panel 8 drives the upper panel 7 upward via pressure sensor 6. The upper panel 7 drives T-block one 4 upward via T-block two 9. T-block one 4 drives the tension adjusting roller 5 upward, causing T-block three 10 to move above T-slot one 3. Then, the upper panel 7 is pulled in a direction away from each other, and the pressure sensor 6 is removed. At this time, T-block two 9 also separates from the upper panel 7, and the tension adjusting roller 5 is also removed. This facilitates the disassembly of the tension adjusting roller 5 and pressure sensor 6, making maintenance or replacement convenient.
[0040] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism also includes a hydraulic cylinder 11, a horizontal plate 12, a vertical plate 13, and a baffle 15. The hydraulic cylinder 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate 1. The hydraulic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 12. The horizontal plate 12 is fixedly connected to the vertical plate 13. The top of the vertical plate 13 is fixedly connected to the rectangular plate 14. The baffle 15 is fixedly installed on the side of the T-block 4. The side of the baffle 15 is in contact with the upper panel 7.
[0041] Through the aforementioned adjustment mechanism, the hydraulic cylinder 11 is activated, which drives the horizontal plate 12 to move. The horizontal plate 12 then drives the vertical plate 13 to move, thus enabling the lower panel 14, T-block three 10, upper panel 8, pressure sensor 6, upper panel 7, T-block two 9, T-block one 4, and tension adjusting roller 5 to move synchronously. This adjusts the position of the tension adjusting roller 5, automatically regulating the warp tension of the rapier loom. It also facilitates the installation and removal of the tension adjusting roller 5 and the pressure sensor 6, making future maintenance or replacement easier.
[0042] Specifically, a T-slot 3 is provided on the top of the side plate 2, and a T-block 4 is vertically slidably installed in the T-slot 3. A T-slot 2 is provided on the side of the top panel 7, and a T-block 9 is engaged with the T-slot 2. A T-slot 3 is provided on the side of the rectangular plate 14, and a T-block 10 is engaged with the T-slot 3. It should be noted that this facilitates the assembly of the pressure sensor 6.
[0043] Specifically, the two upper panels 7, on opposite sides, contact the inner walls of the two T-slots 3, on opposite sides. It should be noted that, in cooperation with the baffle 15, the upper panels 7 can be limited, thus limiting the pressure sensor 6.
[0044] Specifically, the horizontal plate 12 is located below the tension adjusting roller 5, the top of the rectangular plate 14 is in contact with the lower panel 8, and the top of the upper panel 7 is in contact with the T-block 4. It should be noted that the positions of the lower panel 8 and the upper panel 7 are limited.
[0045] Specifically, a mounting bracket 16 is fixedly installed on the side of the base plate 1. The mounting bracket 16 has mounting holes. It should be noted that the mounting bracket 16 is fixed to the designated position of the rapier loom by bolts.
[0046] Working principle:
[0047] S1: Pressure sensor 6 is connected to an external controller. When pressure sensor 6 senses that the pressure value is not within the set range, hydraulic cylinder 11 can be activated to adjust the position of tension adjusting roller 5, thereby automatically adjusting the warp tension of the rapier loom.
[0048] S2: When it is necessary to maintain or replace the tension adjusting roller 5 and the pressure sensor 6, start the hydraulic cylinder 11. The hydraulic cylinder 11 drives the horizontal plate 12 to move, and the horizontal plate 12 drives the vertical plate 13 to move. This allows the lower panel 14, T-block three 10, upper panel 8, pressure sensor 6, upper panel 7, T-block two 9, T-block one 4 and tension adjusting roller 5 to move synchronously, so that T-block three 10 moves above T-slot one 3.
[0049] S3: Pull the upper panel 7 in a direction away from each other to remove the pressure sensor 6. At this time, the T-block 2 9 will also separate from the upper panel 7, and the tension adjustment roller 5 will also be removed. This makes it easy to disassemble the tension adjustment roller 5 and the pressure sensor 6, which is convenient for maintenance or replacement, and subsequent assembly is also more convenient.
[0050] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of the warp tension adjusting component for a rapier loom provided by this utility model. Specific embodiments have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of these embodiments are merely for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to this utility model without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
