Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire supply mechanisms, and more particularly to a wire supply mechanism for a wire locking machine. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional thread-locking machines, the thread feeding mechanism is prone to accumulating lint from the yarn surface during the yarn transport process, leading to frequent thread breaks, equipment downtime, and decreased thread quality. Existing technologies rely on simple suction cleaning, which is insufficient to completely remove attached lint and lacks active separation. Residual lint can easily clog the wire guide holes, affecting continuous production efficiency and product yield. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a thread feeding mechanism for a thread-locking machine, which solves the problem that relying solely on suction in the existing technology makes it difficult to completely remove the loose fibers from the outer side of the yarn.
[0004] To address the problems in the existing technology, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A thread feeding mechanism for a thread-locking machine includes a thread feeding frame on which multiple thread spools are rotatably mounted at equal intervals. Multiple sets of wire assemblies are also mounted at equal intervals on the upper end of the thread feeding frame on the side opposite to the thread spools. Each wire assembly has a wire hole for supplying thread through which it passes. A suction assembly is installed on the upper end of the thread feeding frame near the wire assembly. Each air inlet of the suction assembly is directly opposite a wire assembly. During the thread feeding process, the suction assembly sucks up loose fibers from the thread passing through the wire assembly. A separation component is installed on the wire assembly to separate the loose fibers from the yarn.
[0006] Optionally, a crossbeam is fixed to the upper end of the wire feeder on the side of the wire shaft. The wire assembly and the suction assembly are both installed on the crossbeam. Multiple wire assemblies are distributed along the length of the crossbeam. The wire assembly includes a wire seat fixed to the bottom surface of the crossbeam. Both ends of the wire seat in the length direction are vertically upward with bent ends. A ceramic guide ring is sleeved and fixed on the bent ends. The axial direction of the ceramic guide ring, the length direction of the wire seat, and the direction of yarn conveying are the same. A ceramic plate is fixed to the inner wall of the ceramic guide ring, and the wire hole is formed at the center of the ceramic plate.
[0007] Optionally, a circular protrusion is formed in the middle of the ceramic sheet on the side opposite to the wire shaft, and the inner cavity of the circular protrusion is connected to the inner cavity of the wire hole. The inner edge of the ceramic guide ring near the end of the wire shaft is arc-shaped.
[0008] Optionally, the suction assembly includes suction holes evenly spaced along the length of the crossbeam on the bottom surface of the crossbeam. The suction holes are arranged in an inverted funnel shape. A suction tube extending along the length of the crossbeam is provided at the top of the crossbeam. Multiple auxiliary air inlets are formed on the suction tube. Each auxiliary air inlet is directly opposite a suction hole. The lower end of the auxiliary air inlet is inserted and fixed in the suction hole. Each suction hole is directly opposite a wire seat.
[0009] Optionally, the separation assembly includes a rotating shaft located directly below the crossbeam. The length direction of the rotating shaft is the same as that of the crossbeam. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to all the wire seats through bearings. A motor is fixed on the wire seat at the very end. The end of the rotating shaft near the motor is fixed to the output end of the motor. The rotating shaft is located below the wire hole. Two sets of bristles are provided on the inner side of the wire seat. The two sets of bristles are arranged alternately. Each set of bristles is spirally coiled and fixed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft. The axis of the bristles and the axis of the rotating shaft form an acute angle.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. This utility model, by setting up a rotating shaft, a motor and brush bristles, allows the yarn to be agitated by the brush bristles during the conveying process, causing the yarn to be disturbed, thereby accelerating the separation of the loose fibers on its outer side from the yarn. Combined with the arrangement of the suction structure, the separated loose fibers can be quickly sucked away, improving the cleaning effect of loose fibers.
[0012] 2. This utility model stabilizes the yarn trajectory by setting a circular protrusion, and the arc-shaped edge reduces friction. The double protection reduces the occurrence of secondary yarn pilling. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment provides a wire feeding mechanism for a wire locking machine, including a wire feeding frame 1. Multiple spools 2 are rotatably mounted on the wire feeding frame 1 at equal intervals. A crossbeam 3 is fixed to the upper end of the wire feeding frame 1 on the side opposite to the spools 2. The spools 2 are used to support the spools. After the spools are interference-fitted into the outside of the spools 2, they can rotate with the spools 2, thereby enabling the wire feeding operation.
[0022] Multiple conductor seats 4 are fixed at equal intervals on the bottom surface of the crossbeam 3. The number of conductor seats 4 is the same as the number of spools 2. Both ends of the conductor seat 4 in the length direction are vertically upward with bent ends 5. Ceramic guide rings 6 are fixedly fitted on the bent ends 5. The axial direction of the ceramic guide ring 6, the length direction of the conductor seat 4 and the direction of yarn feeding are the same. A ceramic plate 7 is fixed on the inner wall of the ceramic guide ring 6. The conductor hole 8 is formed at the center of the ceramic plate 7. When feeding the yarn, the yarn passes through the two opposite conductor holes 8 for conductor feeding.
[0023] A circular protrusion 9 is formed on the side of the ceramic plate 7 facing away from the spindle 2. The circular protrusion 9 is integrally formed with the ceramic plate 7. The inner cavity of the circular protrusion 9 is connected to the inner cavity of the wire hole 8. The inner edge of the ceramic guide ring 6 near the spindle 2 is arc-shaped. The circular protrusion 9 enables the yarn to be stably transported in the sleeve structure, while the arc shape reduces the probability of the yarn being worn.
[0024] Multiple suction holes 10 are evenly spaced along the length of the crossbeam 3 on the bottom surface of the crossbeam 3. Each suction hole 10 is directly opposite a guide seat 4. The suction holes 10 are arranged in an inverted funnel shape. A suction pipe 11 extending along the length of the crossbeam 3 is provided at the top of the crossbeam 3. Multiple auxiliary air inlet pipes 12 are formed on the suction pipe 11. Each auxiliary air inlet pipe 12 is directly opposite a suction hole 10. The lower end of the auxiliary air inlet pipe 12 is inserted and fixed in the suction hole 10. During the conveying process, the air inlet end of the air pump is connected to the air outlet end of the suction pipe 11, so that there is a negative pressure in the suction pipe 11, which can suck the air above the guide seat 4. The air mixed with the lint enters the auxiliary air inlet pipe 12 through the suction hole 10, and then enters the suction pipe 11. Finally, it is discharged or filtered out by the filter structure. In this way, the effect of removing the lint on the outside of the yarn can be achieved.
[0025] All the wire guides 4 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft 13 via bearings. The length of the rotating shaft 13 is the same as that of the crossbeam 3. A motor 15 is fixed on the wire guide 4 at the very end. The end of the rotating shaft 13 near the motor 15 is fixed to the output end of the motor 15. The rotating shaft 13 is located below the wire guide hole 8. Two sets of bristles 14 are arranged on the inner side of the wire guide 4. The two sets of bristles 14 are arranged alternately. Each set of bristles 14 is spirally coiled and fixed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 13. The axis of the bristles 14 and the axis of the rotating shaft 13 form an acute angle. The wire guide hole 8 is directly opposite the bristles 14. The bristles 14 are made of antistatic modified rubber, which is not easy to generate static electricity during friction with the yarn. During the wire guiding process, the synchronous drive motor 15 works and drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate, so that all the bristles 14 rotate at the same time. The bristles 14 agitate the yarn surface, using physical means to cause yarn disturbance and accelerate the separation of broken fibers. The separated broken fibers are then sucked away by the suction tube 11.
[0026] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
