Réduit à sa structure essentielle et en référence aux dessins annexés, un dispositif pour transférer automatiquement les collants produits par une machine qui coud les collants à un transporteur des collants en paquets comprend, en conformité avec l'invention:

  • ― une structure portante 1 avec une voie rectiligne horizontale 10 qui s'étend de la station de déchargement d'une machine (LC) qui coud les collants à une station de chargement d'un transporteur (BG) des collants en paquets;
  • ― un chariot 2, avec mouvement alternatif sur ladite voie 10 et une brève pose au point mort en correspondance de la machine LC, et portant une pince 3 à pointes plates, parallèles et horizontales, l'une 30 fixe et l'autre 31 à mouvement vertical alternatif pour saisir et tenir, en un point correspondant de son coin supérieur, le bord élastique 40 du collant 4 lorsque son corps, qui est enfilé sur les formes 9 de la machine LC, est élargi en rectangle horizontal et qu'il est ouvert vers l'intérieur de la machine LC elle-même. A ladite pince 3 est associée un doigt 5, droit, parallèle aux pointes de la pince 3, à mouvement alternatif transversal par rapport à la pince et dont la course d'éloignement de la pince, alors que celle-ci est arrêtée en engageant le bord élastique du collant, fait en sorte que les coutures 42 du collant 4, qui se trouvent dans un même plan horizontal à la fin de la couture, se placent, hors de la machine LC, dans un même plan vertical;
  • ― des moyens pour faire tourner, d'environ 90° autour d'un axe horizontal et pendant la course aller du chariot 2, ladite pince 3 et ledit doigt 5 avec le bords élastique du collant 4 soutenu par elles et le reste du collant en position suspendue, comprenant une came 6, solidaire de la structure 1, un levier 7 avec un galet 70 coulissant sur ladite came 6, un secteur denté 8 solidaire avec ledit levier, une couronne dentée 9 en prise avec ledit secteur 8 et solidaire avec la pince 3, un ressort de rappel 11.
Reduced to its essential structure and with reference to the accompanying drawings, a device for automatically transferring the tights produced by a machine which sews the tights to a conveyor of tights in packs includes, in accordance with the invention:
  • - A supporting structure 1 with a horizontal rectilinear track 10 which extends from the unloading station of a machine (LC) which sews the tights to a loading station of a transporter (BG) of the tights in packages;
  • - A carriage 2, with reciprocating movement on said track 10 and a brief laying in neutral in correspondence of the LC machine, and carrying a clamp 3 with flat, parallel and horizontal points, one 30 fixed and the other 31 to reciprocating vertical movement to grasp and hold, at a corresponding point in its upper corner, the elastic edge 40 of the tights 4 when its body, which is threaded on the forms 9 of the LC machine, is widened into a horizontal rectangle and open towards the inside of the LC machine itself. Associated with said clamp 3 is a right finger 5, parallel to the tips of the clamp 3, with reciprocating transverse movement with respect to the clamp and whose distance from the clamp, while the latter is stopped by engaging the elastic edge of the tights, so that the seams 42 of the tights 4, which are in the same horizontal plane at the end of the seam, are placed, outside the LC machine, in the same vertical plane;
  • - Means for rotating, about 90 ° about a horizontal axis and during the outward travel of the carriage 2, said clamp 3 and said finger 5 with the elastic edges of the tights 4 supported by them and the rest of the tights in suspended position, comprising a cam 6, integral with the structure 1, a lever 7 with a roller 70 sliding on said cam 6, a toothed sector 8 integral with said lever, a toothed crown 9 engaged with said sector 8 and integral with the clamp 3, a return spring 11.

Ladite rotation est prévue pour permettre d'orienter et de poser le bord élastique du corps et au moins une partie du corps du collant, d'un coté d'une planchette verticale située au-dessous 12 prévue en correspondance de la station de chargement d'un transporteur des collants BG en paquets, et de poser respectivement les jambes disjointes du collant de l'autre côté de ladite planchette 12, et de manière à ce que le collant déposé fasse partie d'un paquet (P) de collants superposés.Said rotation is provided to allow the elastic edge of the body and at least a part of the body of the pantyhose to be oriented and placed, on one side of a vertical board situated below 12 provided in correspondence with the loading station d 'a pantyhose conveyor BG in packages, and respectively placing the disjointed legs of the pantyhose on the other side of said board 12, and so that the pantyhose deposited is part of a packet (P) of superimposed pantyhose.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques de l'invention, ledit doigt 5 est associé à un pied 51 coulissant verticalement dans un bloc 52 monté à l'extrémité libre d'une tige horizontale 53, coaxiale et passant dans le support 32 de la pince 3, et lequel est actionné par un cylindre pneumatique en ligne; en position de repos, ledit pied 51 se trouve disposé transversalement au-dessous de la pince 3 de sorte qu'en activant la pointe inférieure 31 de la pince, au moyen d'un cylindre pneumatique correspondant 33, on obtient l'abaissement simultané de la tige 5. Enfin, ledit doigt 5 a la pointe 55 en flèche pour permettre de retenir le bord élastique 40 du collant pendant son transfert et d'en empêcher la chute spontanée.According to other characteristics of the invention, said finger 5 is associated with a foot 51 sliding vertically in a block 52 mounted at the free end of a horizontal rod 53, coaxial and passing through the support 32 of the clamp 3, and which is actuated by an in-line pneumatic cylinder; in the rest position, said foot 51 is arranged transversely below the clamp 3 so that by activating the lower tip 31 of the clamp, by means of a corresponding pneumatic cylinder 33, the simultaneous lowering of the rod 5. Finally, said finger 5 has the tip 55 in arrow to allow the elastic edge 40 of the pantyhose to be retained during its transfer and prevent its spontaneous fall.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le mouvement rectiligne alternatif du chariot 2 est obtenu au moyen d'une vis sans fin 21, horizontale et parallèle à la voie 10, et qui est actionnée au moyen d'un moteur électrique à courant continu (non représenté) dont l'intervention est programmée de manière appropriée pour permettre d'inverser le sens du mouvement pendant la course de retour du chariot 2 et d'exécuter ladite course à une vitesse supérieure à celle de la course aller.According to another characteristic of the invention, the reciprocating rectilinear movement of the carriage 2 is obtained by means of an endless screw 21, horizontal and parallel to the track 10, and which is actuated by means of a direct current electric motor (not shown) whose intervention is appropriately programmed to allow the direction of movement to be reversed during the return stroke of the carriage 2 and to execute said stroke at a speed greater than that of the outward stroke.

Le fonctionnement est le suivant. Le collant, après la couture, arrive dans la station de déchargement de la machine LC, sur les formes 9 qui au départ, sont écartées l'une de l'autre et se ferment ensuite jusqu'à être rapprochées (Fig. 3-7) en montrant les deux coutures 42, qui sont symétriques, dans un même plan horizontal (Fig. 9). Lorsque le collant 4 arrive dans ladite station de déchargement de la machine LC, le chariot 2 se trouve en fin de course de retour, avec la pince 3 et le doigt 5 retirés, c'est-à-dire rapprochés et en position surélevée par rapport aux formes 9 avec le collant 4; la pointe inférieure 31 de la pince 3 et le doigt 5 sont ensuite abaissés jusqu'à ce qu'ils se trouvent en face de l'ouverture du collant; après quoi, le chariot 2 commence sa course aller, et dès que ladite pointe inférieure 31 de la pince 3 et le doigt 5 se trouvent avoir pénétré dans ladite ouverture du collant, ladite pointe inférieure 31 de la pince 3 et le doigt 5 sont soulevés jusqu'à ce que la pointe 31 serre, avec la pointe supérieure 30 de la pince 3, un point correspondant du bord élastique 40 du collant. Ensuite, le chariot, poursuivant dans sa course aller vers le transporteur BG, enlève le collant 4 des formes 9 tandis que le doigt 5 en avançant transversalement pourvoit à imposer au bord et au corps du collant, une rotation de 90° autour de leur propre axe, de manière à ce que les deux coutures 42 se trouvent placées dans un même plan vertical, c'est-à-dire médian. Environ à la moitié de ladite course aller, le levier 7 rencontre la came 6 en imposant au chariot 2 portant le collant 4, une rotation progressive jusqu'à environ 90° ou un peu plus (Fig. 11); après quoi, le doigt 5 est rapproché de la pince 3 et celle-ci est ouverte de manière à abandonner le bord élastique du collant 4 qui tombe avec le bord élastique d'un côté et les jambes disjointes de l'autre côté d'une planchette verticale 12, située au-dessous, prévue dans la station de chargement d'un transporteur BG des collants en paquets; enfin, la pince 3 se referme et le doigt 5 se rapproche de celle-ci et ceci, avant ou pendant que le chariot 2 effectue la course de retour, à vide, en se replaçant dans la position de départ.The operation is as follows. The tights, after sewing, arrive in the unloading station of the LC machine, on the forms 9 which at the start are separated from each other and then close until they are brought together (Fig. 3-7 ) by showing the two seams 42, which are symmetrical, in the same horizontal plane (Fig. 9). When the tights 4 arrive in said unloading station of the LC machine, the carriage 2 is at the end of the return stroke, with the clamp 3 and the finger 5 removed, that is to say close together and in the raised position by compared to shapes 9 with tights 4; the lower tip 31 of the clamp 3 and the finger 5 are then lowered until they are opposite the opening of the pantyhose; after which, the carriage 2 begins its outward travel, and as soon as said lower point 31 of the clamp 3 and the finger 5 are found to have penetrated into said opening of the tights, said lower tip 31 of the clamp 3 and the finger 5 are raised until the tip 31 clamps, with the upper tip 30 of the clamp 3, a corresponding point of the elastic edge 40 of the tights. Then, the carriage, continuing in its race towards the transporter BG, removes the tights 4 from the shapes 9 while the finger 5 advancing transversely provides to impose on the edge and the body of the tights, a rotation of 90 ° around their own axis, so that the two seams 42 are placed in the same vertical plane, that is to say median. About halfway through said forward stroke, the lever 7 meets the cam 6 by imposing on the carriage 2 carrying the tights 4, a progressive rotation up to approximately 90 ° or a little more (Fig. 11); after which, the finger 5 is brought closer to the clamp 3 and the latter is opened so as to abandon the elastic edge of the pantyhose 4 which falls with the elastic edge on one side and the disjointed legs on the other side of a vertical board 12, located below, provided in the loading station of a carrier BG of tights in packages; finally, the clamp 3 closes and the finger 5 approaches it and this, before or while the carriage 2 performs the return stroke, empty, by returning to the starting position.
