Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sizing technology, specifically relating to an automatic sizing bobbin robot. Background Technology

[0002] Sizing is the process of applying sizing agent to warp yarns to improve their weaveability. Weaveability refers to the ability of warp yarns to withstand repeated friction, stretching, and bending from warp stops, heddles, and reeds on a loom without excessive pilling or breakage. Unsized single yarns have weak fiber cohesion, numerous surface hairs, and are difficult to weave. After sizing, some of the sizing agent penetrates between the fibers, while the rest adheres to the warp yarn surface. Sizing where the sizing agent penetrates between the fibers is called penetrating sizing, while sizing where the sizing agent adheres to the warp yarn surface is called coating sizing.

[0003] In sizing, the warp yarns on the warp beam are drawn out, immersed in sizing solution, excess solution is pressed off, dried, and separated. Finally, they are wound into a warp beam of the specified length. This is the most widely used sizing method. However, with existing technology, after the warp beam is used, workers need to manually load and unload it. This method is inefficient for changing the warp beam, which affects the efficiency of warp beam replacement and, consequently, the efficiency of sizing. It is also very inconvenient to use. To address this problem, how to design an automatic sizing beam loading and unloading robot has become a problem that we need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an automatic sizing and loading / unloading robot.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an automatic sizing bobbin loading and unloading robot, including a robot body and a bobbin frame. A support member is fixedly installed inside the robot body, and a connecting platform is rotatably connected inside the bobbin frame. A warp beam is provided on one side of the connecting platform, and the support member is provided at the bottom of the connecting platform and the warp beam. The upper and lower shaft assembly is used to automatically move the warp beam up and down, and the upper and lower shaft assembly is connected to the support, the connecting platform and the warp beam.

[0006] In the above technical solution, the upper and lower shaft assembly further includes a motor fixedly installed inside the support member, a synchronous belt tensioned on the outer wall of the output shaft of the motor, a gear tensioned inside the synchronous belt, and the gear rotatably connected inside the support member.

[0007] In the above technical solution, toothed rings are fixedly installed on the outer walls of both the connecting platform and the warp shaft, and slots are provided on the outer walls of both the connecting platform and the warp shaft.

[0008] In the above technical solution, the outer wall of the rack is meshed with a gear, and a threaded sleeve is fixedly installed inside the gear, and the threaded sleeve is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting platform.

[0009] In the above technical solution, the threaded sleeve is further provided with a threaded rod connected by a thread, and a limiting member is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod away from the threaded sleeve.

[0014] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0015] like Figures 1 to 4The automatic sizing and unspinning robot shown includes a robot body 1 and a spindle frame 3. A support member 2 is fixedly installed inside the robot body 1. The robot body 1 moves, avoids obstacles, controls the displacement of the support member 2, and positions the support member 2. The support member 2 is a common technology in the prior art and is not directly related to the effect of this utility model, so it will not be described in detail. The support member 2 is fixedly connected to the drive component inside the robot body 1. A connecting platform 4 is rotatably connected inside the spindle frame 3, and the connecting platform 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the motor output shaft inside the spindle frame 3. A warp beam 5 is provided on one side of the connecting platform 4. The support member 2 is located at the bottom of the connecting platform 4 and the warp beam 5. The upper and lower spindle assembly is used to automatically move the warp beam 5 up and down. The upper and lower spindle assembly is connected to the support member 2, the connecting platform 4, and the warp beam 5.

[0016] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the upper and lower shaft assembly includes a motor 6 fixedly installed inside the support member 2. A synchronous belt 7 is tensioned on the outer wall of the output shaft of the motor 6. A gear 8 is tensioned inside the synchronous belt 7. The gear 8 is rotatably connected inside the support member 2. Gear rings 9 are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the connecting platform 4 and the warp shaft 5. Slots 10 are opened on the outer walls of the connecting platform 4 and the warp shaft 5. The outline of the slot 10 is larger than the outline of the gear 8. A gear 11 meshes with the outer wall of the gear 8. A threaded sleeve 12 is fixedly installed inside the gear 11. The threaded sleeve 12 is rotatably connected inside the connecting platform 4. A threaded rod 13 is threadedly connected inside the threaded sleeve 12. A limiting member 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod 13 away from the threaded sleeve 12. The limiting member 14 is slidably connected inside the connecting platform 4. A positioning groove 15 is opened at the end of the warp shaft 5. The limiting member 14 is inserted into the positioning groove 15. The outer outline of the limiting member 14 is adapted to the inner outline of the positioning groove 15.

[0017] Working principle: When the upper shaft needs to be adjusted, the robot body 1 moves to the position where the warp shaft 5 is placed, and then controls the support 2 to lift the warp shaft 5, so that the warp shaft 5 is confined inside the arc-shaped part of the support 2. During this process, the warp shaft 5 will press against the outer wall of the toothed bar 8 inside the arc-shaped part of the support 2. At this time, the robot body 1 will control the motor 6 to work, so that the motor 6 drives the toothed bar 8 to rotate through the synchronous belt 7, and then the toothed bar 8 drives the warp shaft 5 to rotate through the toothed ring 9 on the warp shaft 5, until the slot 10 on the warp shaft 5 rotates vertically downward and aligns with the toothed bar 8. Then the slot 10 on the warp shaft 5 will be sleeved on the outer wall of the toothed bar 8. At this time, the toothed bar 8 loses the pressure of the warp shaft 5 and is no longer in contact with the warp shaft 5. At this time, the position adjustment of the warp shaft 5 on the support 2 is completed. Then the robot body 1 drives the warp shaft 5 to the position of the shaft holder 3 through the support 2, and drives the warp shaft 5 to move through the support 2 until the axis of the warp shaft 5 coincides with the axis of the connecting table 4 and stops. When removing the lower shaft, the slot 10 on the connecting platform 4 has already rotated to a vertical downward position and aligned with the rack 8 (therefore, there is no need to adjust the position of the connecting platform 4). At this time, the rack 8 will be inserted into the slot 10 on the connecting platform 4, so that the rack 8 can mesh with the gear 11 and drive the gear 11 to rotate. In turn, the gear 11 drives the threaded sleeve 12 to rotate, so that the threaded rod 13 inside the threaded sleeve 12 is disengaged from the threaded sleeve 12 through the thread. The threaded rod 13 pushes the limiting member 14 to move away from the threaded sleeve 12. Since the position adjustment of the warp shaft 5 is completed, the limiting member 14 can be inserted into the positioning groove 15 at the end of the warp shaft 5, so that the connecting platform 4 and the warp shaft 5 are fixed together by the limiting member 14 and the positioning groove 15, so as to achieve the effect of automatically installing the upper shaft of the warp shaft 5, which is convenient for the staff to use. Then the robot body 1 will control the motor 6 to stop working, control the support member 2 to reset and move to the initial position to standby, waiting for the subsequent removal of the lower shaft of the warp shaft. Furthermore, when the warp shaft 5 is no longer in use, the motor inside the shaft holder 3 no longer drives the warp shaft 5 to rotate via the connecting platform 4 and the limiting member 14. When the lower shaft needs to be lowered, the robot body 1 moves to the side of the shaft holder 3, controls the support member 2 to move to the bottom of the connecting platform 4 and the warp shaft 5, and controls the motor 6 inside the support member 2 to rotate in the reverse direction. This causes the motor 6 to drive the rack 8 to rotate in the reverse direction via the synchronous belt 7. Subsequently, the support member 2 gradually rises, so that the support member 2 fits onto the outer wall of the connection between the connecting platform 4 and the warp shaft 5 from the bottom. This allows the rack 8 on the support member 2 to mesh with the gear ring 9 on the connecting platform 4, and drives the connecting platform 4 to rotate via the gear ring 9, until the slot 10 on the connecting platform 4 moves to the bottom and aligns with the rack 8. At this point, the rack 8 loses mesh with the gear ring 9 on the connecting platform 4 and no longer drives the connecting platform 4 to rotate via the gear ring 9. This causes the continuing to rise support member 2 to drive the rack 8 to insert into the slot 10 and engage with the gear. 11 meshes, causing the rack 8 to drive the threaded sleeve 12 to reverse through the gear 11. The threaded sleeve 12 then drives the limiting member 14 to reset through the threaded rod 13, causing the limiting member 14 to disengage from the positioning groove 15 and retract completely into the connecting table 4. At this point, the warp beam 5 loses its fixation and is supported by the support member 2. Finally, the robot body 1 controls the support member 2 to reset, causing the warp beam 5 to move together with the support member 2 and disengage from the shaft frame 3 and the connecting table 4. This achieves the effect of automatically removing the warp beam 5, improving the installation efficiency of the warp beam 5 and reducing the workload of the workers, thereby improving the efficiency of sizing and making it more convenient for workers to use. It should be noted that when the support member 2 gradually rises, the approach speed needs to be reduced when the support member 2 approaches the connecting table 4 and the warp beam 5 to avoid the rack 8 on the support member 2 not having enough time to drive the connecting table 4 to rotate through the gear ring 9 and drive the threaded sleeve 12 to rotate through the gear 11.
