[0026] See Figures 1-9This embodiment provides an adjustable speed yarn feeder, including a transmission box 1. A first yarn feed roller 3 and a second yarn feed roller 10 are mounted in parallel on one side of the transmission box 1. The outer diameter of the first and second yarn feed rollers is 55mm-65mm. A yarn feed drive motor, an adjustable speed single-phase AC motor, is fixed to the rear of the transmission box to drive the first and second yarn feed rollers to rotate. A first anti-knotting rod 4 is located to the left of the first yarn feed roller 3. An outer end plate 6 is installed at the ends of the first yarn feed roller 3 and the second yarn feed roller 10. A second anti-knotting rod 5 is located to the left of the second yarn feed roller 10 and to the right of the first yarn feed roller 3.

The gear 93 meshes with the rack 91. The longitudinal drive motor operates, causing the gear 93 to rotate and drive the rack 91 to move up or down. The movable frame 90 moves up or down relative to the fixed seat, thereby adjusting the longitudinal position of the second yarn guide bar 8.
[0030] In other embodiments, the transmission box is not equipped with a longitudinal moving device, but the movable frame 90 is fixed in the transmission box 1, so that the second yarn guide rod 8 can only be adjusted in the lateral position.
[0031] In this utility model's technical solution, the first yarn feeding roller 3 and the second yarn feeding roller 10 have the same structure, both including a roller shaft 11 fixed on the transmission box 1. A roller 12 is sleeved on the outer side of the roller shaft 11, and the outer end of the roller 12 is rotatably connected to the roller shaft 11 through a second bearing 15. A transmission end 17 is provided at the inner end of the roller 12, and the transmission end 17 is provided with multiple parallel belt grooves 170. The transmission end 17 is rotatably connected to the roller shaft 11 through a first bearing 13. Figure 6 As shown, the drive ends 11 of the first yarn feeding roller 3 and the second yarn feeding roller 10 are located inside the transmission box 1.
[0032] The outer end plate 6 includes two circular sub-plates, namely a first sub-plate 60 and a second sub-plate 61. A crossbeam is provided between the tops of the two sub-plates. A first notch 64 with a fan-shaped structure is provided below the sub-plates, and a second notch 63 with a U-shaped structure is provided at the top of the crossbeam. The outer end of the second anti-knotting rod 5 is located at the second notch 63. The outer end of the roller shaft 30 is provided with a fixing screw hole 14. A fixing screw 16 passes through the top of the first notch 64 of the outer end plate 6 and is threaded into the fixing screw hole 14, locking it in the fixing screw hole 14 and fixing the outer end plate 6 to the ends of the first yarn feeding roller 3 and the second yarn feeding roller 10.
[0033] In this utility model, a yarn feeding drive motor 2 is fixed to the rear side of the transmission box 1. The motor shaft of the yarn feeding drive motor 2 passes through the inside of the transmission box 1 and is fixed with a pulley 11. A belt is sleeved on the outside of the pulley 11, the transmission end 17 of the first yarn feeding roller 3, and the transmission end 17 of the second yarn feeding roller 10. The rotation of the yarn feeding drive motor 2 drives the pulley 11 to rotate, and the pulley 11 drives the first yarn feeding roller 3 and the second yarn feeding roller 10 to rotate via the belt.
[0034] This invention connects the longitudinal drive motor and the adjusting drive motor 97 to a controller. The controller controls the current and voltage parameters of the two motors to achieve precise motor drive, thereby controlling the movement of the second yarn guide rod 8. The controller is electrically connected to the yarn feeding drive motor 2 to adjust the motor speed, solving the technical problem in existing technologies where the fixed motor speed prevents adjustment of the yarn feeding speed according to different knitting processes (such as yarn thickness and weaving density). The controller's control of the motor is existing technology and will not be elaborated here. The outer diameter of the first yarn feeding roller 3 and the second yarn feeding roller 10 is selected between 55-65mm, which is larger than the traditional outer diameter of 40mm. At the same speed, the yarn feeding amount is increased. For example, in this embodiment, the outer diameter of the first yarn feeding roller 3 and the second yarn feeding roller 10 is 60mm. According to the calculation formula: yarn feeding amount ∝ roller circumference × speed, where roller circumference = π × roller outer diameter, the yarn feeding amount can be increased by 50%, avoiding yarn tension fluctuations caused by insufficient yarn feeding and ensuring the uniformity of fabric weaving.
[0035] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
