Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 schematically shows according to the air-jet loom jet loom 1 with control device of the present invention.In this embodiment, air-jet loom jet loom 1 is designed to spray air loom.The yarn 91 being appointed as weft yarn is arranged on online cylinder 21.Yarn 91 is transferred to storing weft threads unit 22 from line cylinder 21, and it can be designed as drum type storage element.From storing weft threads unit 22 extract out weft yarn 92 by one or more accelerating jet 31,32(also referred to as main burner) accelerate and be fed to air supply pipe 8, its be arranged on by shed forming device (not shown) formed shed open in.Longitudinal direction x along it the specific weft yarn section 93 be inserted in air supply pipe 8 is called chooses yarn (pick) 93.Choose yarn 93 and be conducted through air supply pipe 8 by multiple pilot jet 33.Pilot jet 33 is preferably divisible into multiple nozzle sets 34.1 ..., 34.n.In the embodiment in figure 1, there is the nozzle 34.1 of 6 groups ..., 34.6, each have four pilot jets 33.Accelerating jet 31,32 and nozzle sets 34.1 ..., 34.6 respectively via control valve 41,42,44.1 ..., 44.n, such as electromagnetism two-way valve supplies compressed air.Not shown compressed air is fed to control valve 41,42,44.1 in FIG for simplicity ..., 44.n, also other elements of not shown air-jet loom jet loom 1.
Sensor unit 5 for detecting at least one yarn parameter of weft yarn 92 is continuously arranged on air supply pipe 8 upstream, and preferably online between cylinder 21 and storing weft threads unit 22.Sensor unit 5 can be designed to yarn clearer substantially, such as used up to now on spinning machine or coil winding machine for in-service monitoring yarn qualities, and as known from prior art.It comprises at least two Yarn sensers 51,52.Yarn senser 51,52 preferably carry out work according to different measuring principle.First Yarn senser 51 can be such as capacitive sensor, and the second Yarn senser 52 can be such as optical pickocff.Other measuring principles electric principle that such as rubs also is possible.Sensor 51,52 measure the intrinsic yarn parameter of at least two differences.Intrinsic yarn parameter can be the yarn qualities of per unit length, yarn diameter, thread density, yam surface structure, Yarn filoplume, thread material composition, in the yarn the percentage of exterior materials, or any other intrinsic yarn parameter.The downstream that the first breakage of weft arresting stop 61 that yarn 93 comes off is arranged on storing weft threads unit 22 is chosen for detecting.The outlet of air supply pipe 8 is arranged on further for detecting the second breakage of weft arresting stop 62 choosing yarn 93 arrival.
Control valve 41,42,44.1 ..., 44.n is controlled by control unit 7.Control unit 7 can be a part for standalone module or loom control unit.It is from sensor unit 5, from the first breakage of weft arresting stop 61 and/or the second breakage of weft arresting stop 62 and may from other sensors and/or from the Received signal strength of jet loom 1 own and/or data.Control unit 7, based on the yarn parameter detected by Yarn senser 7, calculates the optimum nozzle opening times being used for each single weft yarn and inserting.The air validity of choosing yarn 93 can be comprised in the calculation.The air validity of yarn is defined as the aerial ratio carrying surface and yarn qualities of yarn in WO-89/12122A1.
The block diagram illustrating of Fig. 2 is according to the embodiment of control method of the present invention.Here the control unit 7 that the rectangle be shown in broken lines represents can provide two control loops.Utilize the first control loop of the first controller 71 corresponding to the known loom control ring of prior art, and utilize the second control loop of second controller 72 method according to the present invention required.For the ease of the reason explained, have selected view in fig. 2, illustrate for two of two controllers 71,72 separately square frames.In fact, two controllers 71,72 can physically separate, but alternatively also can be combined in an individual unit.
The first, Closed control ring is compared with the swing circle of air-jet loom jet loom 1, is slower or quasi-static.Controlling the speed of loom driver.The input parameter of the first control loop is the overall situation of weft yarn 91 for using or the initial value of static parameter 202 on the one hand, such as mean yarn counting, mean yarn diameter, mean yarn density, yarn heterogeneity is about yarn qualities or the statistics determined value of yarn diameter and/or the distribution of Yarn filoplume length.Initial value 201 can from such as in textile laboratory by the model of such as applicant yarn test device in advance on corresponding yarn 91 perform statistics inspection or simply from yarn supplier.On the other hand, other input parameters are loom datas 203.Actual control variable in the first control loop is weft yarn due in, as what detected by the second breakage of weft arresting stop 62.First controller 71 is mentioned and other input parameters calculating at least one controling parameters 204 for air-jet loom jet loom 1, as driving variable from above-mentioned.The example of controling parameters 204 is rotary speeies of loom driver and/or is fed to the air pressure of nozzle 31-33.Air pressure impacts weft yarn due in and/or air consumption 205.
The second, Open control ring is fast, namely its reaction time be the swing circle of jet loom 1 amplitude or less than it.Its input parameter is that next yarn inserts chooses the independent of yarn 93 or dynamic yarn parameter 206 as being supplied to of being determined by sensor unit 5.Second controller 72 calculates from these current dynamic yarn parameters 206 separately at least one controling parameters 204 being used for jet loom 1 by algorithm.The example of controling parameters 204 is independent start-up times (see Fig. 4) that nozzle 31-33 inserts for next weft yarn.It is minimum that second control loop target is to make air consumption 205, still keeps again due in 205 in acceptable preset range.Therefore realize independent weft yarn by the second control loop and insert control.
The controling parameters 204 calculated by the first controller 71 and second controller 72 must adjust mutually and/or interknit in a suitable manner.The quasistatic controling parameters 204 calculated by the first controller 71 is used as the basis of the Dynamic controlling parameter 204 calculating second controller 72.If the first controller 71 and second controller 72 calculate different controling parameters 204, such as nozzle air pressure or nozzle opening times, so the controling parameters 204 of the first controller 71 enters the algorithm run in second controller 72 as predefined parameter.If the first controller 71 and second controller 72 calculate identical controling parameters 204, so the controling parameters 204 of second controller 72 is used as the corrected value of the controling parameters 204 for the first controller 71, and it is used as basic value.
The dynamic yarn parameter 206 determined by sensor unit 5 also can affect the initial value 201 of weft yarn 91 alternatively, and it is used as the input parameter of the first control loop.This inserts not impact, because the first control loop more slowly reacts to next yarn.It relates to the correction of the initial value 201 of input in control unit 7 in advance on the contrary, and this correction has follow-up and long-term effect.
Required at synchronous 207 of sensor unit 5 and jet loom 1 loom for working satisfactorily of the second control loop.Particularly, need synchronous 207 the yarn parameter value 206 measured by sensor unit 5 to be assigned to and choosing the relevant position on yarn 93.As shown in Figure 1, sensor unit 5 is preferably arranged in storing weft threads unit 22 upstream.The benefit brought like this is, second controller 72 insertion corresponding choose yarn 93 before tool have sufficient time to calculate controling parameters 204.Therefore the controling parameters 204 calculated in advance to be stored in the storage element of second controller 72 and to fetch from storage element relevant choosing when yarn 93 prepares for inserting.Yarn 92 is stored in storing weft threads unit 22, and it has chooses yarn 93 corresponding to multiple, such as four, length.Synchronous 207 make the corresponding dynamic yarn parameter 206 for being determined by sensor unit 5 relevant to each position along the yarn 92 stored.Synchronous 207 can be used in from breakage of weft arresting stop 61,62 or from the signal of storing weft threads unit 22.
Fig. 3 relates to the modeling of choosing yarn 93, due to the simplification of the calculating in second controller 72.Fig. 3 (a) represents the longitudinal section by choosing yarn 93.The longitudinal section x choosing yarn 93 represents, radial direction r represents.The length of choosing yarn 93 x is in a longitudinal direction L.Yarn senser 51,52 x high local resolution scanning yarn parameters 206 in a longitudinal direction.Choose yarn 93 usually to have and can measure position correlated quality as yarn parameter 206 by the first Yarn senser 51 of sensor unit 5, and can be measured as by the second Yarn senser 52 of sensor unit 5 position associated diameters D (x) making yarn parameter 206.The measurement of single parameter such as diameter D (x) is enough for method according to the present invention.Except quality and diameter D (x), other yarn parameters 206 one or more can also be measured by sensor unit 5, such as thread density or filoplume, and be used in the model described below.
In second controller 72, calculate controling parameters 204 can consider in the local correlation position of the yarn parameter 206 chosen on yarn 93.It can perform with signal D (x) measured.But this calculating comprises a large amount of data.By as shown in Figure 3 (b) to choosing yarn 93 modeling, it can be simplified, and does not have any significant defect.For this reason, choose the idealized subsegment 94.1 that yarn 93 is divided into an integer m>1 with equal length L/m virtually ..., 94.m.Integer m can between 2 to 50, and preferably between 20 to 30; The simplified example of Fig. 3 (b) uses m=10.Each subsegment 94.i(i=1,2 ..., m) distribute to and choosing the position x on yarn 93 i, wherein such as,
x i = ( i - 1 ) L m
In addition, each subsegment 94.i(i=1,2 ..., m) distribute to same diameter D i, it is preferably the average diameter of this field 94.i:
D i = m L ∫ x i x i + 1 D ( x ) dx .
Average or sampling can come by the processing unit relevant to sensor unit 5 or by second controller 72.For this reason, sensor unit 5 or controller 72 are from breakage of weft arresting stop 61,62, receive appropriate synchronizing signal 207 from storing weft threads unit 22 or from miscellaneous part.This model decreases data volume, and because this simplify the calculating performed by second controller 72.
The concrete example of the model with m=1 is shown in fig. 3 (c).Here whole yarn 93 of choosing is assumed to be identical, has the average diameter D provided by following formula 0:
D 0 = 1 L ∫ 0 L D ( x ) dx .
The saving model illustrated in fig. 3 (c) is not a part of the present invention, but corresponding to prior art document US-4, the instruction of 4634783A1.It does not consider the local distribution in diameter value D (x) choosing yarn 93 measured by sensor unit 5.Therefore, this model does not solve the problem of described restriction in a satisfactory manner.
The sample chart of Fig. 4 represents that nozzle 31-33(for jet loom 1 is see Fig. 1) nozzle opening times.Substantially drawing on the horizontal axis corresponding to the anglec of rotation of time of jet loom 1, and each nozzle 31,32 and nozzle sets 44.1 ..., 44.n draws on a vertical axis.Horizontal bar 431,432,434.1 ... when 434.n represents respective nozzle 31,32 and nozzle sets 44.1 ..., 44.n is effective.In this example, select n=6, although without loss of generality.Some have white and black part.White portion symbol is according to the situation in the jet loom of prior art, and black relates to according to jet loom 1 of the present invention.The bar of filling black completely represents that nozzle opening times does not associatedly change with prior art.
In the fig. 4 embodiment compared with prior art, two controling parameters 204 change, and it is the duration section (or nozzle closed moment) that nozzle start time of opening and nozzle are opened.At least one of these controling parameters 204 is subject to corresponding impact of choosing the location-dependent parameters 206 that yarn 93 is determined by sensor unit 5.Prior art situation can be used as initial value, and then optimizes according to the present invention.Air effectively chooses yarn 93, namely large diameterly chooses yarn 93, many plumages that becomes mildewed, and little quality, needs shorter nozzle to open the cycle than the yarn 93 of choosing with lower air validity.
Make great efforts to optimize nozzle opening times 204 according to control method of the present invention and realize minimum possible air consumption 205.In optimization, need the critical boundaries condition of observing to be that each yarn 93 of choosing arrives and weaves process and do not interrupt.In addition, when the weft yarn due in 205 measured by the second breakage of weft arresting stop 62 should in preset range.On the one hand, nozzle opening times 204 can change for optimizing.The due in of control unit 7 calculation expectation and it is compared with the due in 205 measured.When the due in expected compares the due in of measurement in short-term, nozzle opening times can be reduced to reduce air consumption 205.In reverse situation, increase nozzle opening times a little to stop the possibility of the pause of loom 1.On the other hand, initial nozzle opening times also can change, and inserts because they affect weft yarn.Optimum initial nozzle opening times allows even shorter nozzle opening times and therefore allows lower air consumption 205.As shown in Figure 4, air consumption can be reduced relatively by method according to the present invention.
It should be noted that according to the present invention, bar 434.1 ..., the black part of 434.n is different mutually by chosen yarn 93 generally.In other words, certain chooses certain 434.j(j=1 of yarn 93, and 2 ..., different length n) can be had and/or choose the corresponding bar 434.j displacement of yarn along horizontal direction relative to another.This is because method according to the present invention is considered in each fact of choosing the local distribution of the weft yarn parameter value (206) measured in yarn 93.According to prior art, on the contrary, follow-uply choose yarn, bar 434.1 for multiple ..., the white portion of 434.n will not change, because prior art does not consider local distribution.
The yarn parameter measured by sensor unit 5 can not only be used in activated nozzle 31-33, and is used in the quality estimating weft yarn 91 in the mode similar to the yarn clearer on spinning machine or coil winding machine.According to the yarn faults that the estimation of certain QUALITY STANDARD detects, such as roughly square, comparatively thin local, or the exterior materials in weft yarn, it can be defined by the so-called clearing limit.When sensor unit 5 detects insupportable weft faults, defect chooses yarn 93 can from its regular path deflection so that it is not inserted into fabric.In the loom of at least two weft yarn cylinder accommodating fluid supply pipes, weft yarn, from the supply of line cylinder, can stop the defect yarn come from line cylinder.Alternatively or additionally, if the weft quality detected is inadequate, warning can be provided.
Be appreciated that and the invention is not restricted to embodiment as above.Those skilled in the art can will derive the more shape changeable also belonging to theme of the present invention by knowledge of the present invention.
