Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water jet loom technology, and in particular to a left front cover for a loom. Background Technology

[0002] Water jet looms are key pieces of equipment in the modern textile industry. Their control consoles, integrating various instruments, switches, and operating buttons, are the core of equipment operation and control. However, existing control consoles and their surrounding protective structures on water jet looms have significant deficiencies. Currently, the control components of most machines are directly exposed, lacking effective and comprehensive protection.

[0003] Existing technologies include solutions for adding an integral cover to the control console, such as the easily detachable control console cover for a water-jet loom disclosed in Chinese Patent CN 211171072 U. While this integral cover provides some protection, it also has the following problems: 1. The integral cover is bulky, with high mold costs and complex manufacturing processes, resulting in high unit manufacturing costs. 2. In actual use, the probability and causes of damage to the control console area and the front guard plate area are different. For example, the front guard plate may be damaged due to material handling or operational collisions, while the control console cover may need to be disassembled due to frequent operation or internal component maintenance. If an integral structure is used, any local damage means that the entire bulky cover component needs to be replaced, which undoubtedly causes a great waste of materials and replacement costs, placing a heavy economic burden on users. In addition, the integral structure is not conducive to local reinforcement or targeted design, and is often not flexible enough during installation and disassembly. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a left front cover for a loom. Through the separate design of the front guard plate, the control console cover and the cover, it achieves "partial damage can be replaced separately", reduces maintenance costs, improves installation flexibility and extends the service life of the control console.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a left front cover for a loom, including a front guard plate and a control panel cover disposed above the front guard plate; a cover is provided at the seam between the front guard plate and the control panel cover, covering the seam; an opening is provided on the front guard plate, on which a switch door is rotatably installed; the upper surface of the control panel cover is provided with instrument clearance holes and operation button clearance holes; its bottom peripheral wall is adapted to the top peripheral wall of the front guard plate, ensuring that the top of the front guard plate is inserted into the control panel cover; and the two are set against the wall; the top of the front guard plate is provided with an insertion port at the bottom of the seam; the cover is provided with an elastic buckle that inserts into the insertion port and locks into the insertion port; when the cover is fastened, the top of the cover abuts against and is flush with the bottom of the control panel cover; its bottom arcs to the surface of the front guard plate.

[0006] The system features a modular design with separate front panel, control panel cover, and outer cover, allowing for individual replacement of damaged sections, reducing maintenance costs and material waste. The outer cover is secured with elastic clips at the seams, ensuring both a sealed seal and flexible installation and removal. The top of the cover is flush with the control panel cover, while the bottom has a rounded transition, resulting in a smooth appearance and preventing scratches from sharp edges. The front panel's door facilitates access to internal components, and the control panel cover's clearance holes accommodate instruments and operating buttons, balancing protection and practicality.

[0007] Furthermore, the front guard plate includes a vertically downward-extending front panel and a transition cover positioned on top of the front panel, with the front panel and transition cover integrally formed. Both the front panel and the transition cover include a front face and side faces, with the side faces located on either side of the front face and extending towards the loom. The front face and side faces form a groove structure. The peripheral wall dimension of the transition cover is larger than that of the front panel, and its bottom is connected to the front panel via an arc-shaped plate. The top dimension of the transition cover is adapted to the bottom dimension of the control panel guard, and its top peripheral wall is smaller than that of the bottom peripheral wall of the control panel guard. The integral formation of the front panel and transition cover of the front guard plate results in a robust structure and convenient production. The groove structure allows for better fitting and installation on the loom, enhancing the protective targeting. The peripheral wall dimension of the transition cover is larger than that of the front panel, and the arc-shaped plate transition enhances structural strength and optimizes the appearance lines. Simultaneously, the top dimension's adaptation to the control panel guard ensures a snug fit and improves the sealing effect.

[0008] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are evenly distributed on the curved plate. These ribs directly enhance the structural strength of the transition area of ​​the front guard plate, preventing deformation due to collisions and vibrations, extending the service life of the front guard plate, and adapting to the environmental requirements of the loom during operation.

[0009] Furthermore, the control panel cover includes an upper surface at a certain angle and a vertical surface; the bottom of the vertical surface is for the top of the front guard plate of the control panel cover to be inserted. The angled upper surface of the control panel cover conforms to operating habits, making it easy to observe the instruments and operating buttons, while the bottom of the vertical surface is for the front guard plate to be inserted, further enhancing the fit between the two and improving the overall structural stability and sealing protection.

[0010] Furthermore, the connector has two rows of elastic clips arranged vertically, and correspondingly, two rows of elastic clips are also arranged vertically. The two rows of elastic clips are symmetrically arranged vertically. Each elastic clip includes an extension arm that is fixed to the cover and extends into the cover. The end of the extension arm has a protruding head that bends away from the other row of elastic clips. The side of the protruding head away from the extension arm has a bevel. When the extension arm is fully inserted into the connector, the protruding head hooks onto the inner side of the connector. The two rows of symmetrical elastic clips, in conjunction with the connector, provide double fixation, enhancing the cover's installation stability and preventing it from falling off during use. The beveled protruding head of the elastic clip facilitates insertion and installation; after full insertion, the protruding head hooks onto the inner side of the connector, achieving reliable fixation while balancing ease of installation and connection stability.

[0011] Furthermore, once the cover is fully engaged, its inner side rests against the reinforcing ribs. On one hand, the reinforcing ribs support the cover, preventing it from deforming under stress; on the other hand, they further reduce the gap between the cover and the front skid plate, improving the sealing and protective effect.

[0012] Furthermore, one side of the front guard plate is provided with an elongated hole; the elongated hole extends horizontally from its outside to its inside; the starting end of the elongated hole is located on one side of the cover; the end of the elongated hole is on the side away from the cover; a hook is provided on the cover corresponding to the side of the elongated hole, extending away from the cover; the opening of the hook faces away from the cover, and when the cover is fastened, the bottom of the hook engages with the end of the elongated hole. This mechanism provides guidance for cover installation, ensuring that the elastic buckle is accurately inserted into the socket, while also adding a fixing point to improve the overall installation stability of the cover. The hook opening faces away from the cover, and after fastening, it locks into the end of the elongated hole, preventing lateral displacement of the cover and adapting to the vibration environment during loom operation.

[0013] Furthermore, the terminal has a planar structure that fits perfectly against the bottom of the hook. This increases the contact area, improves the uniformity of force distribution on the hook, avoids structural damage caused by localized stress concentration, and further enhances the reliability of the cover's fixation.

[0014] Furthermore, the starting end of the elongated hole extends directly to the front of the cover and completely avoids the hook. This prevents the hook from interfering with the front guard plate during installation, ensuring the cover can be smoothly inserted into place, improving installation convenience, and without affecting the overall sealing and protective effect.

[0015] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This utility model, a left front cover for a loom, solves the technical problem of high manufacturing and replacement costs of the overall structure of the left front cover for a loom in the prior art. This utility model achieves "partial damage can be replaced separately" through the separate design of the front guard plate, the control console cover and the cover, thereby reducing maintenance costs, improving installation flexibility and extending the service life of the control console.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] The orientations mentioned in this specification are based on the orientation of the left front cover of the loom when it is working normally. They do not limit the orientation during storage and transportation, and only represent relative positional relationships, not absolute positional relationships.

[0020] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a left front cover for a loom includes a front guard plate 1 and a control panel cover 2 disposed above the front guard plate 1. A cover 3 is provided at the seam between the front guard plate 1 and the control panel cover 2, and the cover 3 covers the seam.

[0021] The front guard plate 1 includes a vertically downward extending front panel 101 and a transition cover 102 disposed on top of the front panel 101; the front panel 101 and the transition cover 102 are integrally formed. Both the front panel 101 and the transition cover 102 include a front face and side faces extending towards the loom on both sides of the front face; the front face and side faces form a fastening groove structure. The peripheral wall dimension of the transition cover 102 is larger than that of the front panel 101; the width of the front face of the transition cover 102 is 10%-20% larger than the peripheral wall dimension of the front panel 101. The bottom of the transition cover 102 is connected to the front panel 101 by an arc-shaped plate 103. The top dimension of the transition cover 102 is adapted to the bottom dimension of the control panel cover 2, and its top peripheral wall is smaller than the bottom peripheral wall of the control panel cover 2, so that it can be inserted into the bottom of the control panel cover 2 and is flush against it. An opening 11 is provided on the front panel 101, and a switch door 12 is rotatably mounted on the opening 11. The door 12 is rotatably connected to the edge of the opening 11 via a hinge or pivot, and the door 12 can be opened by flipping outwards. Reinforcing ribs are evenly distributed on the arc-shaped plate 103.

[0022] The control panel cover 2 includes an upper surface and a vertical surface at a certain angle; the angle between the upper surface of the control panel cover and the horizontal plane is 15°-30° (the parameter can be determined according to the actual product), so as to facilitate the operator's observation of the instruments. The upper surface is located at the top and is provided with instrument clearance holes 21 and operation button clearance holes 22; the vertical surface extends vertically downward from the upper surface, and its bottom is for the top of the transition cover 102 to be inserted.

[0023] The top of the front guard plate 1 is provided with an insertion port 13 at the bottom of the splice seam; the cover 3 is provided with an elastic buckle 31 that inserts into the insertion port 13 and locks into the insertion port 13; when the cover 3 is fastened, the top of the cover 3 abuts against the control panel cover 2; its bottom curves to the surface of the front guard plate 1, that is, the front panel 101. The cover 3 and the elastic buckle 31 are made of a one-piece molded plastic structure.

[0024] Because the transition cover 102 is inserted into the vertical surface of the console cover 2, a step surface exists between them. To conceal this step surface, a cover 3 is installed at the gap. The cover 3 is installed on the front panel 1, and its upper surface abuts against and is flush with the console cover 2, i.e., flush with the step surface. The lower surface transitions to the front panel 101 in an arc shape, thus making the overall lines smoother and preventing sharp edges from causing injury.

[0025] As a further optimized technical solution, the socket 13 is provided with two rows of elastic buckles 31, and the elastic buckles 31 are also provided with two rows of elastic buckles 31. The two rows of elastic buckles 31 are symmetrically arranged vertically. The elastic buckles 31 include extension arms 311 that are fixed on the cover 3 and extend into the cover 3. The positions of the two rows of extension arms 311 are adapted to the distance between the two rows of sockets 13, thereby ensuring that the two rows of extension arms 311 can be smoothly inserted into the sockets 13. The end of the extension arm 311 is provided with a protrusion 312 that bends away from the other row of elastic buckles 31. The side of the protrusion 312 away from the extension arm 311 is provided with a slope. The slope forces the extension arm 311 to retract and pass through the socket 13. When the extension arm 311 is fully inserted into the socket 13, the protrusion 312 hooks onto the inner side of the socket 13. The extension arm 311 has deformable recovery capability, and the beveled surface of the protrusion 312 facilitates insertion into the socket 13. After insertion, the elastic recovery of the extension arm 311 causes the protrusion 312 to hook onto the inner side of the socket 13. When removing the cover 3, press the protrusion 312 to retract the extension arm 311, causing the protrusion 312 to disengage from the inner side of the socket 13, and then pull the cover 3 outward along the direction of the elongated hole.

[0026] In this embodiment, one row of connectors 13 is positioned on the transition cover 102, and another row is positioned on the front panel 101. This mechanism enhances the stability of the top and bottom of the cover 3, preventing it from detaching. The upper row of extension arms 311 of the cover 3 is located at the top of the cover 3, while the lower row of extension arms 311 is located at the bottom. When the cover 3 is fully engaged, the inner side of the cover 3 rests against the reinforcing ribs.

[0027] A long, narrow hole 14 is provided on the side of the front cover 1; the long, narrow hole 14 extends horizontally from its outside to its inside; a hook 32 is provided on the cover 3 on the side corresponding to the long, narrow hole 14, extending away from the cover 3; the opening 11 of the hook 32 faces away from the cover 3, and the starting section of the long, narrow hole 14 is located on the side of the cover 3; the end section of the long, narrow hole 14 is located on the side away from the cover 3; when the cover 3 is fastened, the bottom of the hook 32 engages with the end section of the long, narrow hole 14. The end section of the long, narrow hole 14 is a flat structure, completely fitting against the hook 32. The starting section of the long, narrow hole 14 extends to the front of the cover 3 and completely avoids the hook 32. The long, narrow hole 14 serves as a guide, allowing the cover 3 to be smoothly inserted into the slot 13.

[0028] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
