Abstract

The travelling cleaner for looms and such machines with rows of moving machine members comprises a compressed-air blower guided to and fro along the row of moving machine members, the compressed-air blower is disposed on a compressed-air linear motor which is movable to and fro along a guide attached to the loom supporting the row of moving loom members, and the compressed-air blower and the compressed-air linear motor are connected to a mutual compressed-air source. This renders possible for the first time, a fully-automatic, optimal cleaning of rows of moving loom or machine members on any desired loom or machine of this kind.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum Entfernen von sich niederschlagenden Verunreinigungen, wie Staub- und Flusenniederschlag an Reihen von bewegten Maschinenteilen bei Maschinen der Textilindustrie, wie Jacquardmaschinen, mit einem, entlang der Reihe von bewegten Maschinenteilen gesteuert hin und her bewegbarem Druckluft-Gebläse.The present invention relates to a device for removing precipitating impurities, such as dust and lint, from rows of moving machine parts in machines of the textile industry, such as jacquard machines, with a compressed air blower which can be moved back and forth along the row of moving machine parts.

Eine solche Einrichtung ist durch die FR-A-1 385 540 bekannt geworden, um bei einer Webmaschine mit einer grossen Anzahlen von Kettfäden das Problem der Verschmutzung durch sich niederschlagenden Staub oder Flusen, was schnell zu Störungen an der Maschine führt, zu beseitigen.Such a device has become known from FR-A-1 385 540 in order to eliminate the problem of contamination by precipitating dust or lint in a weaving machine with a large number of warp threads, which quickly leads to machine malfunctions.

Allerdings sind die hierfür verwendeten Mittel mit einem altertümlichen Riementrieb für die heutigen Anforderungen und auf modernen, schnellen Maschinen ungeeignet.However, the means used for this purpose with an ancient belt drive are unsuitable for today's requirements and on modern, fast machines.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist deshalb die Schaffung einer Einrichtung der vorgenannten Art, welche eine vollständige Automation bei optimalem Reinigungsvermögen, grosser Wirtschaftlichkeit und universeller Anwendbarkeit und Nachrüstbarkeit gestattet.The object of the present invention is therefore to create a device of the aforementioned type which allows complete automation with optimum cleaning ability, great economy and universal applicability and retrofittability.

Dies wird erfindungsgemäss erreicht durch die Kombination der Merkmale a), dass das Druckluft-Gebläse auf einem, an der Textilmaschine befestigten Führung hin und her bewegbaren Druckluft-Linearmotor angeordnet ist; b), dass das Druckluft-Gebläse und der Druckluft-Linearmotor an einer gemeinsamen Druckluft-Quelle angeschlossen sind; c), dass das Druckluft-Gebläse mehrere Venturi-Düsen umfasst, welche übereinander sind und d), dass die übereinander angeordneten Venturi-Düsen höhenverstellbar und/oder kippbar sind, derart, dass sich deren Luftkegel im Bereich der bewegten Maschinenteile überschneiden.This is achieved according to the invention by the combination of the features a) that the compressed air blower is arranged on a compressed air linear motor which can be moved back and forth on the textile machine; b) that the compressed air blower and the compressed air linear motor are connected to a common compressed air source; c) that the compressed air blower comprises a plurality of Venturi nozzles which are one above the other and d) that the Venturi nozzles arranged one above the other are height-adjustable and / or tiltable, such that their air cones overlap in the area of the moving machine parts.

Eine solche Einrichtung wird allen vorgenannten Bedingungen gerecht und ist zudem äusserst sparsam im Energieverbrauch.Such a facility meets all of the above conditions and is also extremely economical in energy consumption.

Eine beispielsweise Ausführungsform des Erfindungsgegenstandes ist nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

Fig. 1
in schematischer Darstellung eine Frontansicht der erfindungsgemässen Einrichtung zum Entfernen von Verunreinigungen an bewegten Maschinenteilen; und
Fig. 2
die Anordnung gemäss Fig. 1 in einer stirnseitigen Ansicht.
An example embodiment of the subject matter of the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing. Show it:
Fig. 1
a schematic representation of a front view of the inventive device for removing contaminants on moving machine parts; and
Fig. 2
the arrangement of FIG. 1 in an end view.

Die erfindungsgemässe Einrichtung zum Entfernen von sich niederschlagenden Verunreinigungen umfasst eine Führung 2 für ein, entlang einer nicht näher gezeigten Reihe von bewegten Maschinenteilen, wie Litze 10, gesteuert hin und her bewegbares Druckluft-Gebläse 1, wofür die Führung 2 eine geeignete Länge aufweist und sich am Rahmen der betreffenden Maschine montieren lässt.The device according to the invention for the removal of precipitating impurities comprises a guide 2 for a compressed air blower 1, which can be moved back and forth along a row of moving machine parts, such as strand 10, which is not shown in detail, for which purpose the guide 2 has a suitable length and can be mounted on the frame of the machine in question.

Da, wie bereits erwähnt ist, die erfindungsgemässe Wanderreiniger-Einrichtung für jede Art von Maschine, welche mindestens eine Reihe von bewegten Maschinenteilen umfasst, geeignet ist, wird auf eine solche, nicht erfindungswesentliche Maschine nicht weiter Bezug genommen.Since, as already mentioned, the traveling cleaner device according to the invention is suitable for any type of machine which comprises at least one row of moving machine parts, reference is not made to such a machine which is not essential to the invention.

Vorzugsweise wird sowohl das Druckluft-Gebläse 1 als auch ein, dieses Gebläse tragender Druckluft-Linearmotor 3 von einer gemeinsamen Druckluft-Quelle 5 gespeist, welche etwa ein maschineneigener Kompressor oder ein ferngespeister Luftanschluss sein kann.Both the compressed air blower 1 and a compressed air linear motor 3 carrying this blower are preferably fed by a common compressed air source 5, which can be, for example, a machine's own compressor or a remote-fed air connection.

Geeignete Verteilermittel 5′ sowie Steuergerätmittel 8, gegebenenfalls auch nicht näher gezeigte Timer und/oder Umsteuermittel steuern dabei vollautomatisch und zweckmässig vorprogrammierbar die Hin- und Herbewegung des Linearmotors 3 sowie die Tätigkeit des Druckluft-Gebläses 1, je nach den Abständen der zu reinigenden Maschinenteile, allfälligen Wiederholungsfrequenzen, Länge der Führung 2, Stärke der vorhandenen Druckluft u. dgl.Suitable distribution means 5 'and control device means 8, possibly also not shown timers and / or reversing means control the back and forth movement of the linear motor 3 and the activity of the compressed air blower 1 fully automatically and appropriately preprogrammed, depending on the distances between the machine parts to be cleaned, any repetition frequencies, length of the guide 2, strength of the existing compressed air and. the like

Vorteilhaft ist, wenn das Druckluft-Gebläse 1 mit mehreren Venturi-Düsen 4 ausgerüstet ist, die dann übereinander höhenverstellbar und/oder kippbar auf einer Säule 7 des Linearmotors 3 aufsitzen, derart, dass sich deren Luftkegel 9 im Bereich der zu reinigenden Maschinenteile, wie Litze 10 in Fig. 2, überschneiden, so dass auch längliche Maschinenteile, wie Litzen, Schnüre, Federn u. dgl. wirksam und vollständig von niedergeschlagenen Verunreinigungen befreit werden können.It is advantageous if the compressed air blower 1 is equipped with a plurality of Venturi nozzles 4, which are then vertically adjustable and / or tiltable one on top of the other on a column 7 of the linear motor 3, such that their air cone 9 is located in the area of the machine parts to be cleaned, such as 2, overlap strand 10, so that elongated machine parts such as strands, cords, springs and the like. Like. Can be effectively and completely freed of deposited impurities.

Eine solche Einrichtung kann gemäss den vorerwähnten Massnahmen automatisch, wirtschaftlich, universell und optimal den Reinigungserfordernissen genügen.Such a device can automatically, economically, universally and optimally meet the cleaning requirements in accordance with the aforementioned measures.
