Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of knitting technology, and in particular to a knitting track adjustment device for a knitting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional knitting machine tracks have some drawbacks. First, the height of the guide track cannot be adjusted, making it impossible to adjust the tension of the knitting yarn. Second, the angle of the track cannot be adjusted, resulting in the inability to fine-tune the direction of the knitting yarn.

[0003] To address this, patent specification CN212505269U discloses a knitting machine track adjustment device, including a mounting plate with a hollowed-out through hole. A rotating mechanism is located at the upper end of the mounting plate, and a connecting rod is located at the upper end of the rotating mechanism. The rotating mechanism includes a fixed block, a rotating block, a fixed threaded rod, a knob, and another rotating block. An adjustment mechanism is located at the upper end of the connecting rod, including an external threaded tube, a clamping plate, an adjusting rod, and a beveled internal threaded sleeve. A fixed frame is located at the upper end of the adjustment mechanism, with a rotating shaft penetrating through the inside of the fixed frame. A guide wheel is located on the outer surface of the rotating shaft, and a guide rail is hollowed out inside the guide wheel. Knitting yarn is arranged on the inner side of the guide rail. This knitting machine track adjustment device allows for fine-tuning of the track's direction and facilitates easy adjustment of the tension of the textile yarn by adjusting the track's height.

[0004] The aforementioned knitting track adjustment device for knitting machines has several shortcomings. First, it requires manual adjustment of the height and horizontal direction of the track, making operation cumbersome. Second, it lacks a yarn storage and release function, and cannot balance tension during adjustment by storing or releasing yarn. Therefore, this knitting track adjustment device for knitting machines needs to be optimized and improved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned problems in traditional technology and provide a knitting track adjustment device for a knitting machine.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0007] A knitting track adjustment device for a knitting machine includes a support base frame, a rotary driver, a rotating plate, an end guide wire assembly, and a yarn storage assembly. The rotary driver is installed on the upper side of the support base frame, the rotating plate is installed on the movable end of the rotary driver, the end guide wire assemblies are symmetrically installed at both ends of the rotating plate, and the yarn storage assembly is installed at the middle of the upper side of the rotating plate.

[0008] The end guide assembly includes a lifting push rod, a first mounting base, and a first guide wheel. The cylinder of the lifting push rod is fixed on the rotating plate. The movable end of the lifting push rod is equipped with the first mounting base. The first mounting base movably supports two first guide wheels, and an end guide channel is formed between the two first guide wheels.

[0009] The wire storage assembly includes a vertical linear guide rail pair, a second mounting base, and a second guide wheel. The slide rail of the vertical linear guide rail pair is fixed on the rotating plate. The second mounting base is installed on the outside of the slider of the vertical linear guide rail pair. The second mounting base movably supports two second guide wheels, and an intermediate guide channel is formed between the two second guide wheels.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned knitting track adjustment device for knitting machines, the diameter of the lifting push rod as it rotates with the turntable is greater than the maximum outer diameter of the rotary drive.

[0011] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned knitting track adjustment device for knitting machines, the rotary drive adopts a structure with a fixed outer ring and a movable inner ring.

[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned knitting track adjustment device for a knitting machine, each of the first mounting bases of the two end guide wire assemblies is equipped with a tension sensor for detecting the tension of the knitting thread.

[0013] Furthermore, the aforementioned knitting track adjustment device for the knitting machine also includes a controller, which is connected to the rotary drive, the lifting push rod, the vertical linear guide pair, and the tension sensor.

[0014] Furthermore, in the aforementioned knitting track adjustment device for the knitting machine, when the tension sensor detects that the tension is greater than the set range value, it sends an excessive tension signal to the controller, which controls the slider of the vertical linear guide pair to move down, thereby reducing the tension by releasing the stored yarn; when the tension sensor detects that the tension is less than the set range value, it sends an excessive tension signal to the controller, which controls the slider of the vertical linear guide pair to move up, thereby increasing the tension by increasing the stored yarn.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] This utility model device is reasonably designed and mainly consists of a supporting base frame, a rotary driver, a rotating plate, an end conductor assembly, and a wire storage assembly. The components work together to drive the rotating plate to rotate, which in turn drives the end conductor assembly and the wire storage assembly to rotate, thereby adjusting the horizontal direction of the track. The end conductor assembly uses a lifting push rod to adjust the height of the end conductor channel, and the wire storage assembly uses a vertical linear guide pair to adjust the height of the middle conductor channel. This not only meets the needs of adjusting the height of the incoming and outgoing wires, but also balances the tension during the adjustment process by storing or releasing wires.

[0017] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the above advantages at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1-6As shown, this embodiment provides a knitting track adjustment device for a knitting machine, including a support base frame 1, a rotary driver 2, a rotating plate 3, an end guide wire assembly 4, and a yarn storage assembly 5. The rotary driver 2 is installed on the upper side of the support base frame 1, the rotating plate 3 is installed on the movable end of the rotary driver 2, the end guide wire assemblies 4 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the rotating plate 3, and the yarn storage assembly 5 is installed at the middle of the upper side of the rotating plate 3.

[0029] In this embodiment, the end guide assembly 4 includes a lifting push rod 401, a first mounting base 402, and a first guide wheel 403. The cylinder of the lifting push rod 401 is fixed on the rotating plate 3. The movable end of the lifting push rod 401 is equipped with the first mounting base 402. The first mounting base 402 movably supports two first guide wheels 403. An end guide channel is formed between the two first guide wheels 403 to facilitate the passage of the knitting thread 6.

[0030] In this embodiment, the yarn storage assembly 5 includes a vertical linear guide rail pair 501, a second mounting base 502, and a second guide wheel 503. The slide rail of the vertical linear guide rail pair 501 is fixed on the rotating plate 3. The second mounting base 502 is installed on the outside of the slider of the vertical linear guide rail pair 501. Two second guide wheels 503 are movably supported in the second mounting base 502. An intermediate guide channel is formed between the two second guide wheels 503 to facilitate the passage of the knitting yarn 6.

[0031] In this embodiment, the lifting push rod 401 rotates with the rotating plate 3 with a diameter greater than the maximum outer diameter of the rotary driver 2, so the lifting push rod 401 will not collide with the rotary driver 2 and the supporting base frame 1 below.

[0032] In this embodiment, the rotary drive 2 adopts a structure with a fixed outer ring and a movable inner ring.

[0033] In this embodiment, a tension sensor for detecting the tension of the knitting thread 6 is installed on the first mounting base 402 of each of the two end conductor assemblies 4.

[0034] In this embodiment, a controller is also included, which is connected to the rotary drive 2, the lifting push rod 401, the vertical linear guide pair 501, and the tension sensor.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the tension sensor detects that the tension is greater than the set range value, it sends an excessive tension signal to the controller. The controller then controls the slider of the vertical linear guide 501 to move down, thereby reducing the tension by releasing the stored wire. When the tension sensor detects that the tension is less than the set range value, it sends an excessive tension signal to the controller. The controller then controls the slider of the vertical linear guide 501 to move up, thereby increasing the tension by adding more stored wire.

[0036] The specific application of this embodiment is as follows: This device mainly consists of a supporting base frame 1, a rotary driver 2, a rotating plate 3, an end conductor assembly 4, and a wire storage assembly 5. The components work together to drive the rotating plate 3 to rotate using the rotary driver 2. The rotating plate 3 then drives the end conductor assembly 4 and the wire storage assembly 5 to rotate accordingly, thereby adjusting the horizontal direction of the track. The end conductor assembly 4 uses a lifting push rod 401 to adjust the height of the end conductor channel. The wire storage assembly 5 uses a vertical linear guide pair 501 to adjust the height of the middle conductor channel. This not only meets the requirements for adjusting the height of the incoming and outgoing wires, but also balances the tension during the adjustment process by storing or releasing wires.
