The rotation of the rollers in both the traction and take-up mechanisms of the fabric winding system is driven by servo motors.
[0004] The inventors of this application discovered that the servo transmission mechanism of a circular knitting machine experiences wear during high-speed operation. When the servo transmission mechanism of the fabric winding system malfunctions, causing a roller to stop rotating, the fabric woven by the circular knitting machine will accumulate in a certain area, causing equipment failure and even safety accidents.

[0050] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments.
[0051] As described in the background section of this application, a circular knitting machine includes a weaving mechanism and a fabric winding system (fabric winding machine). The fabric winding system includes a traction mechanism and a take-up mechanism. The weaving mechanism of the circular knitting machine weaves the fabric, and the woven fabric is held and pulled by the traction rollers of the traction mechanism, and then wound onto the take-up rollers of the take-up mechanism of the fabric winding system to form a fabric roll. The rotation of the rollers of the traction mechanism and the take-up mechanism of the fabric winding system is driven by servo motors.
[0052] The inventors of this application discovered that the servo transmission mechanism of a circular knitting machine experiences wear during high-speed operation. When the servo transmission mechanism of the fabric winding system malfunctions, causing a roller to stop rotating, the fabric woven by the circular knitting machine will accumulate in a certain area, causing equipment failure and even safety accidents.
[0053] To address the aforementioned problems, the inventors of this application have proposed a technical solution, the specific embodiments of which are as follows:
[0054] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the large circular knitting machine system in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 2 This is an exploded view of the circular knitting machine system in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 3 As described in the embodiments of this utility model Figure 2 A magnified view of a portion of the image.

Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the installation of the tension sensor in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the fabric winding path in an embodiment of the present invention.
[0055] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the large circular knitting machine system of this embodiment includes: a frame, a rubber roller shaft, a guide roller 3, a take-up roller 4, a traction servo motor, a take-up servo motor, and a sensor 5.
[0056] The frame is equipped with a left side plate 11 and a right side plate 12.
[0057] The traction servo motor (not shown in the figure) and the winding servo motor (not shown in the figure) are respectively mounted on one side plate of the frame.
[0058] The left side plate 11 and the right side plate 12 of the frame are provided with a plurality of first openings 101, and the two ends of the rubber roller shaft and the guide roller 3 are respectively rotatably inserted through the first openings 101 of the left side plate 11 and the right side plate 12.
[0059] The rubber roller shaft includes: traction roller 21 and support roller 22.
[0060] Two traction rollers 21 are provided, which are set at the top of the frame and arranged in parallel. They are connected to the traction servo motor through a transmission mechanism, and the traction servo motor drives the traction rollers 21 to rotate. The two traction rollers 21 clamp the fabric 100 woven by the circular knitting mechanism. When the two traction rollers 21 rotate, they pull the fabric 100, causing the fabric 100 to be conveyed downward.
[0061] There are two support rollers 22, which are set at the bottom of the frame and arranged in parallel intervals. They are connected to the winding servo motor through a transmission mechanism, and the winding servo motor drives the support rollers 22 to rotate.
[0062] The take-up roller 4 is placed on two support rollers 22, and its two ends are movably mounted on the left and right side plates of the frame. The support rollers 22 support the take-up roller 4, and the fabric 100 pulled by the traction roller 21 is guided by the guide roller 3 and then wound onto the take-up roller 4. When the support rollers 22 rotate, the support rollers 22 drive the take-up roller 4 to rotate under the action of friction. The take-up roller 4 winds up the fabric 100 to form a fabric roll 200, and then the support rollers 22 drive the fabric roll 200 to rotate to continue winding.
[0063] Two sensors 5 are provided, and the two sensors 5 are respectively installed on a traction roller 21 and a support roller 22. The sensors 5 are preferably installed on the active traction roller that is connected to the traction servo motor and the active support roller that is connected to the winding servo motor. The sensors 5 are electrically connected to the controller of the large circular knitting machine.
[0064] Sensor 5 is used to detect and monitor the rotation status of traction roller 21 and support roller 22. When the servo transmission mechanism malfunctions, sensor 5 detects that one of the traction roller 21 and support roller 22 has stopped rotating, or detects that both the traction roller 21 and support roller 22 have stopped rotating, and sends a signal to the controller of the large circular kiln. The controller then controls all mechanisms of the large circular kiln to stop working to ensure equipment safety.
[0065] As can be seen from the above, the circular knitting machine system of this embodiment, through the arrangement of a frame, rubber roller shafts, guide rollers, take-up rollers, traction servo motors, take-up servo motors, and sensors, has the rubber roller shaft and guide rollers mounted on the left and right side plates of the frame. The rubber roller shaft includes a traction roller and a support roller. The traction roller is connected to the traction servo motor, and the support roller is connected to the take-up servo motor. The take-up roller is placed on the two support rollers. The sensors are mounted on the frame to monitor the rotation status of the traction rollers and support rollers. In this embodiment, the circular knitting machine system monitors the rotation status of the traction rollers and support rollers through sensors. When a servo transmission mechanism malfunctions, causing the traction rollers and / or support rollers to stop rotating, the sensors send a signal to the controller of the circular knitting machine. The controller then stops all mechanisms of the circular knitting machine, halting the equipment's operation and ensuring equipment safety to prevent accidents.
[0066] Optionally, in this embodiment of the large circular knitting machine system, the left side plate 11 and right side plate 12 of the frame are provided with fixing flanges 13, which are located at the first opening 101 of the left and right side plates.
[0067] A self-aligning ball bearing 131 is embedded in the center of the fixed flange 13, and the two ends of the traction roller 21, support roller 22 and guide roller 3 are respectively mounted on the self-aligning ball bearing 131 of the fixed flange 13.
[0068] In this embodiment, the fixed flange is equipped with a self-aligning ball bearing. The traction roller, support roller and guide roller are respectively mounted on the self-aligning ball bearing of the fixed flange. The self-aligning ball bearing can compensate for the mechanical errors during the installation of each roller shaft, which facilitates the quick installation of each roller shaft.
[0069] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the large circular knitting machine system in this embodiment also includes: a mounting base 61 and a metal sensor ring 62.
[0070] Sensor 5 monitors the rotational state of traction roller 21 and support roller 22, and a metal sensor ring 62 is mounted on the monitored rubber roller shafts (traction roller 21 and support roller 22). Mounting base 61 is mounted on fixed flange 13, corresponding to the position of metal sensor ring 62.
[0071] The metal sensor ring 62 has multiple notches 621 on its circumferential sidewall, and the multiple notches 621 are evenly spaced along the circumferential direction.
[0072] Sensor 5 is a photoelectric sensor, mounted on mounting base 61. The metal sensor ring 62 rotates together with the monitored rubber roller shaft, and the photoelectric sensor sends a pulse signal to the controller of the large circular knitting machine when it senses the passage of the notch 621 of the metal sensor ring 62.
[0073] In this embodiment, the photoelectric sensor sends multiple (6) pulse signals to the large circular kiln controller for each rotation of the monitored rubber roller shaft (traction roller and support roller). If any pulse signal is missing, the equipment will automatically stop to ensure safety. The sensor (photoelectric sensor) is set on the fixed flange, which facilitates the installation and replacement of the sensor.
[0074] Furthermore, in the circular knitting machine system of this embodiment, a fixed protruding ring 622 is provided on one side of the metal sensor ring 62.
[0075] The metal sensor ring 62 is sleeved on the rubber roller shaft (traction roller 21 and support roller 22). The fixing protrusion 622 of the metal sensor ring 62 is fixed on the rubber roller shaft by multiple fixing set screws 63, so that the metal sensor ring 62 rotates together with the rubber roller shaft.
[0076] Furthermore, the large circular knitting machine system in this embodiment also includes a dust cover 64.
[0077] The dust cover 64 is installed on the mounting base 61 to cover the sensor 5 (photoelectric sensor) and ensure the stable operation of the photoelectric sensor.
[0078] Furthermore, in the large circular knitting machine system of this embodiment, the mounting base 61 is semi-circular, and a protrusion 611 is provided on one side of the end face of the mounting base 61.
[0079] The dust cover 64 includes a semi-circular base plate 641 and a barrier 642, with the barrier 642 disposed on one side of the semi-circular base plate 641.
[0080] The sensor 5 (photoelectric sensor) is set in the recess of the mounting base 61, the semi-circular bottom plate 641 of the dust cover 64 is fixed on the protrusion 611 of the mounting base 61, and the enclosure 642 of the dust cover 64 forms a shield for the photoelectric sensor.
[0081] In this embodiment, the photoelectric sensor is fixed in the recessed part of the mounting base, and the semi-circular bottom plate of the dust cover is fixed in the protruding part of the mounting base, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the mounting base and the dust cover, and reducing the installation space occupied by the mounting base and the sensor.
[0082] Optionally, the circular knitting machine system in this embodiment further includes: a tension roller 71 and a tension sensor 72.
[0083] The left side plate 11 and the right side plate 12 of the frame are respectively provided with second openings 102.
[0084] The tension sensor 72 has a protruding ring 721 on its end face, and the tension sensor 72 is equipped with a self-aligning ball bearing.
[0085] Two tension sensors 72 are provided, which are respectively installed on the left side plate 11 and the right side plate 12 of the frame, and the protruding ring 721 of the tension sensor 72 is inserted into the second opening 102 of the left and right side plates.
[0086] The two ends of the tension roller 71 are respectively inserted into the self-aligning ball bearings of the tension sensor 72, and the tension roller 71 is located between the traction roller 21 and the guide roller 3.
[0087] Tension sensor 72 is electrically connected to the controller of the large circular knitting machine.
[0088] like Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the fabric pulled by the traction roller is guided by the tension roller and the guide roller and then wound onto the take-up roller. The tension sensor detects the tension of the fabric during the conveying process. When the detected fabric tension exceeds the preset value, it sends a signal to the controller of the circular knitting machine. The controller controls and adjusts the speed of the traction servo motor or the take-up servo motor to keep the fabric tension within the set range, thereby enhancing the safety of the equipment.
[0089] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the large circular knitting machine system in this embodiment also includes: a fixed base 73.
[0090] The diameter of the second opening 102 on the left side plate 11 of the frame is larger than the outer diameter of the tension sensor 72.
[0091] The mounting base 73 is mounted on the left side plate 11 of the frame, located at the second opening 102. The tension sensor 72, located to the left of the tension roller 71, passes through the second opening 102 of the left side plate 11 and is fixed to the mounting base 73.
[0092] In this embodiment, the diameter of the second opening on the left side plate of the frame is larger than the outer diameter of the tension sensor, so that the tension roller and the tension sensor can be directly pulled out from the second opening on the left side plate, which facilitates the replacement of the tension roller and the tension sensor.
[0093] Furthermore, in the large circular knitting machine system of this embodiment, the diameter of the first opening 101 on the left side plate 11 of the frame is larger than the outer diameter of the rubber roller shaft. That is, the diameter of the first opening 101 for fixing the traction roller 21 is larger than the outer diameter of the traction roller, and the diameter of the first opening 101 for fixing the inner support roller 22 is larger than the outer diameter of the support roller 22. When the traction roller 21 and the support roller 22 need to be replaced, they can be directly pulled out from the first opening 101 on the left side plate 11, which facilitates the replacement of the rubber roller shaft. The support roller located on the outer side can be tilted outward after the bearing is removed, which is convenient for replacement.

[0095] Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "above" the first feature in relation to the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "under," and "beneath" the first feature in relation to the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
