Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drum changing technology for winding machines, specifically to an intelligent identification automatic drum changing device for winding machines. Background Technology
[0002] As is well known, in the textile industry, the winding machine is a key piece of equipment used to unwind yarn from spindles or other forms of yarn tubes and rewind it into bobbins with a certain shape and density. The traditional operation of winding machines relies on manual bobbin changing, that is, when a bobbin of yarn is used up, the worker needs to manually replace it with a new bobbin of yarn. Manual bobbin changing is not only slow, but also easily affected by factors such as the worker's skill level and working condition, making it difficult to improve production efficiency. Frequent manual bobbin changing increases the physical labor burden of workers, especially under long-term continuous operation, which can easily cause worker fatigue and affect work efficiency. Since each bobbin changing takes a certain amount of time to complete, the winding machine will be in a stopped state during this period, thereby increasing non-productive downtime and reducing the overall utilization rate of the equipment. The bobbin changing process of traditional winding machines is almost entirely dependent on manual labor, lacking the necessary automated control and intelligent recognition functions, which limits its potential to develop towards high efficiency and intelligence. Due to frequent manual intervention, the risk of equipment wear and tear is increased, as well as the workload and cost of daily maintenance. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a solution to this technical problem. Utility Model Content

[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an intelligent identification automatic drum changing device for winding machines, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This intelligent identification automatic bobbin changing device for winding machines uses multiple bobbin holders arranged in a ring array to simultaneously store multiple bobbins of yarn. Once the currently used bobbin of yarn is exhausted, the system can quickly adjust to the next position full of bobbins of yarn to continue operation, eliminating the need to stop the machine and wait for manual replacement, thus greatly improving production efficiency. A camera recognition mechanism monitors the status of bobbins of yarn on each bobbin holder in real time. When it detects that a bobbin of yarn has been used up, the system automatically triggers subsequent operations, including a lifting mechanism driving the toothed block to leave the toothed ring, a rotating mechanism rotating the adjusting plate to the new bobbin of yarn position, and locking the angle again. The entire process requires no manual intervention, achieving true automated bobbin changing. The adjusting plate is mounted on the support cylinder through a bearing seat, ensuring good stability and flexibility during rotation. The precision meshing design between the toothed block and the toothed ring not only ensures that the adjusting plate is firmly locked in any position, but also effectively prevents angle deviation caused by mechanical vibration, enhancing the reliability of equipment operation.

[0021] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model relates to an intelligent identification automatic drum changing device for a winding machine, comprising a housing 1, a support cylinder 2 at the top of the housing 1, a bearing seat 3 at the top of the support cylinder 2, an adjusting disc 4 on the bearing seat 3, an adjusting groove at the center of the bottom of the adjusting disc 4, a toothed ring 5 on the adjusting groove, a control groove inside the housing 1, a lifting mechanism 6 on the control groove, a toothed block 7 at the output end of the lifting mechanism 6, the toothed block 7 meshing against the toothed ring 5, a rotating mechanism between the control groove and the adjusting disc 4, a heat dissipation mechanism on the housing 1, a camera recognition mechanism at the center of the top of the adjusting disc 4, and a drum seat 8 at the top of the adjusting disc 4. Multiple drum seats 8 are arranged in a circular array. In this embodiment, multiple circular arrays... The bobbin holder 8 is designed to easily store multiple bobbins. A single bobbin is aligned with the winding machine for weaving. A camera recognition mechanism identifies whether the bobbins on the multiple bobbin holders 8 are used up. After use, the output end of the lifting mechanism 6 moves the toothed block 7 downwards, disengaging it from the toothed ring 5. Then, the rotating mechanism rotates the adjusting disc 4, which rotates stably within the support cylinder 2 via the bearing seat 3. This allows bobbin holders 8 at other angles filled with bobbins to align with the winding machine for continued rapid weaving. The output end of the lifting mechanism 6 then moves the toothed block 7 upwards, re-engaging it with the toothed ring 5, locking the adjusting disc 4 at the correct angle. This ensures the stability of the bobbin position. Personnel only need to periodically replace the bobbins on the bobbin holders 8, significantly reducing workload.
[0023] The aforementioned rotating mechanism can be any type of rotating device. In order to further rotate the adjustment disk 4 angle more efficiently, in this solution, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating motor 9, which is installed in the control slot. The output end of the rotating motor 9 is connected to the bottom end of the adjustment disk 4. The output end of the rotating motor 9 directly drives the adjustment disk 4 to rotate the angle, thereby enabling the adjustment disk 4 to rotate with high precision and efficiency.
[0024] To improve the stability of the fixed tooth block 7, in this solution, the inner wall of the support cylinder 2 is provided with a guide block 10, and the guide block 10 is provided with a guide hole. The output end of the lifting mechanism 6 passes through the guide hole. By passing the output end of the lifting mechanism 6 through the guide hole of the guide block 10, the output end of the lifting mechanism 6 can be guided and limited, thus ensuring the linear movement stability of the tooth block 7.
[0025] To further identify the bobbins on multiple bobbin holders 8, in this solution, the camera recognition mechanism includes a mounting column 11, with camera frames 12 on all four sides of the mounting column 11. These camera frames 12 on the four sides of the mounting column 11 enable more efficient identification of the bobbins on multiple bobbin holders 8, reducing blind spots. Illumination lamp groups 13 are also provided on all four sides of the mounting column 11, illuminating the area around the adjustment disc 4 and ensuring the camera recognition effect of the camera frames 12 even in low-light conditions. When integrated into an existing camera recognition system, the camera recognition mechanism can automatically determine the amount of bobbins on the bobbin holders 8.
[0026] In this solution, the heat dissipation mechanism includes heat dissipation vents, which are opened around the perimeter of the housing 1. The heat dissipation vents are equipped with dustproof grilles 14. The heat dissipation vents are opened around the perimeter of the housing 1 to facilitate heat dissipation operations, and the dustproof grilles 14 can reduce the entry of external dust into the heat dissipation vents.
[0027] In this scheme, there are four bobbin holders 8, which are arranged in a right-angled ring array with the center of the adjusting disk 4 as the center. The arrangement of four bobbin holders in a right-angled ring array with the center of the adjusting disk 4 as the center makes it easy to store multiple bobbins and to control the rotation angle for changing bobbins.
[0028] 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.
