The spring 7532 is installed between the end of the bolt 7531 and the side of the swing block 752. When the fabric is unwound normally, the spring 7532 presses tightly against the side of the swing block to fix it. When the fabric gets knotted, the knot detection rod 751 drives the swing block to compress the spring towards the side of the swing block elastic support assembly 753.
[0038] Reference Figure 5 A pressure rod 746 is also provided between the roller assembly 72 and the movable stop roller 743. A height-adjusting shaft 104 is provided at the front end of the frame 1, and the height-adjusting shaft 104 is located above the movable stop roller 743.
[0039] During normal operation, the movable guide wheel swings up and down with the swing arm. When the belt motor accelerates, the movable guide arm falls downwards. When the swing arm reaches its initial position, a deceleration signal is triggered by the tension limit switch, causing the motor to decelerate and the movable guide wheel to rise with the swing arm. The encoder records the rotation angle of the swing arm. When the swing arm reaches the maximum deflection angle set by the encoder, it triggers the belt motor to accelerate, and the movable guide wheel falls downwards. This cycle continues until the tension becomes constant and is maintained.
[0040] When a knot occurs in the fabric belt, the belt pulls the swing block towards the side of the elastic support assembly. The knot detection switch cannot detect the knot detection rod signal and triggers an alarm. After the knot is cleared, the fabric belt is re-looped around the fabric belt guide wheel 1, knot detection rod, fabric belt guide wheel 2, fabric belt guide wheel 3, fabric belt roller assembly, pressure rod, movable stop wheel, and height adjustment wheel axle on the frame, and the equipment continues to operate.
