Definitions
- the invention relates to a textile machine of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a textile machine is known for example from US-3,381,462 AI.
- the known thread waste device has the disadvantage that if the dimensioning of the transport channel is too narrow, the operational sequence can easily be disturbed due to a blockage. On the other hand, such a high flow velocity must be present in the transport channel that the vacuum present at the inlet openings for the thread waste is sufficient to ensure that the threads delivered continuously at high thread speeds are still safe can be sucked in and transported away, at all processing points of the texturing machine.
- a yarn waste container device is also known, which is used in a bobbin changing device (doffer) for a modern high-speed false twist crimping machine.
- the threads are delivered during the bobbin change through a pipe system which belongs to the bobbin changing device and is moved from this by a group of winding units to the next group of winding units to be operated.
- the negative pressure generated by a negative pressure source which is connected to an intermediate container of the waste container device, is used to transport the threads.
- the disadvantage here is that the negative pressure generated acts on the entire unit consisting of the intermediate container and waste container and for each change of a waste container the negative pressure source has to be switched off and the prevailing negative pressure has to be compensated in order to build it up again after the container has been changed.
- the object of the invention is to provide a textile machine of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1, which is capable of sucking in the threads or thread remnants reliably even at high working or production speeds and which promotes blockage of the transport channel in the provided container without risk of malfunction ,
- Another object is to provide a thread waste device which uses the energy sources already present on the textile machine for its operation.
- a sufficient negative pressure is generated in the transport channel for the thread remnants and in the area of the thread processing points, where the junctions lie in the transport channel, in order to reliably detect the thread remnants and to send them to the collecting container.
- the thread remnants are blown out into the connected collecting container, which is now not under the high negative pressure of a corresponding vacuum device. This also makes it easier to replace the collecting container when it is filled and has to be emptied, since there is no need to produce pressure compensation. Since a vacuum does not have to be re-established after a container change, the system is also always ready for operation without interruption. Blowing out the yarn waste also has the advantage that a much higher packing density of the yarn waste is generated in the collecting container. This allows larger quantities of yarn waste to be picked up without enlarging the collection container.
- the energy supply installed on the textile machine can be used to operate the jet apparatus, which is preferably designed as an ejector device operated with a gaseous working medium, in particular compressed air from the operating network, since this is usually already provided with installation connections of the company compressed air network. Retrofitting of the textile machine with the transport system for thread remnants according to the invention can thus also be carried out in a simple manner.
- the blasting apparatus according to the invention is particularly advantageous in terms of the investment required and its running costs, in particular in comparison to a corresponding vacuum system with the associated filter devices which are used in the transport systems according to the prior art. Finally, there is also a great advantage in that the proposed blasting apparatus is extremely low-maintenance, since it has no moving components.
- the proposal also has a great advantage in that a waste bag can be detachably and easily replaced as a collecting container for the thread waste. When it is filled, it can be exchanged in a few simple steps and without additional tools, and it can be recycled together with the thread remnants and the thread wastes that are conveyed into it. In the meantime, the collection container saves the remaining thread residues.
- the bottom of the collecting container can be closed at the bottom with a flap which is brought back into the operating position in which it is open after another empty rubbish bag has been attached. This can be done by the operating personnel of the textile machine by hand or by means of suitable electro-mechanical or pneumatic or hydraulic actuation devices.
- the thread transport system has a plurality of thread injectors assigned to the processing points. Each thread injector is assigned at least one inlet opening for receiving a thread.
- FIG. 1 shows a cross section of the end portion of a false twist crimping machine.
- FIG. 2 shows the winding units of the false twist curling machine from FIG. 1 lying one above the other in three floors and the associated thread transport system for suctioning off thread remnants when changing the bobbin in a schematic representation;
- Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a blasting apparatus according to the invention in cross section including thread and thread waste bag.
- a thread 1 consisting of several filaments is mis-twisted in the false twist curling machine 2 by a texturing unit 3.
- This consists, for example, of several interacting friction disks, which are lined up on driven, parallel spindles at a distance from one another and, in plan view, overlapping one another, the spindle axes passing through the corners of an equilateral triangle.
- the texturing unit 3 is driven directly by an electric motor 4, ie one of the three spindles is direct and, starting from this, the other two spindles are driven by toothed belts.
- the rotation applied to the thread 1 by the texturing unit 3 runs from the false twister 3 back to the fixing heater 5, where the filaments are softened thermoplastic, so that the applied rotation is impressed into the thread 1. Seen in the direction of the thread run, the impressed rotation of the thread 1 is frozen on a cooling plate 6 after leaving the fixing heater 5.
- the thread 1 drawn off by the delivery mechanism 7 at approximately the thread processing speed now runs with the heat-fixed rotation through the false twister 3 and is opened again in its outlet, ie the thread 1 is rotated in the thread running direction by the last disks of the false twister 3 in the opposite direction. Due to the previous heat treatment, the however, texture embossed in the thread is preserved.
- the textured thread 8 is then heat-set between the delivery mechanisms 9 and 10 in the so-called set heater 11 under adjustable shrinkage conditions, ie in particular thread tension and temperature, and wound into texturing coils 12.
- the windings for the textured threads 8 are arranged one above the other in three floors.
- the division of a winding unit 13 thus corresponds to the division width of three texturing units 3 arranged next to one another.
- the winding units 13 are all identical to one another. They each consist of a traversing device 15, from which the thread 8 is moved back and forth during its winding travel, a friction roller 16 for circumferential drive of the texturing coil 12 and the pivotably mounted bobbin lever 17, on which the texturing bobbin 12 or, after a bobbin change, the from above automatically supplied empty bobbin tube 18 is clamped.
- a thread waste device 24 is assigned to the winding devices 13 and has a processing point for each winding device 13.
- the thread waste device 24 has a thread transport system 14 for picking up and removing the threads 8 from the processing points 31.
- the thread transport system 14 is formed by guide tubes which, in this exemplary embodiment, simultaneously deflect the threads 8.
- the thread transport system 14 on which the textured and heat-stabilized threads 8 are deflected from their vertical thread path to the associated traversing devices 15, is formed here, for example, from a plurality of guide tubes, each of which is assigned to a processing point 31.
- the thread transport system 14 is under negative pressure, which is generated by a jet apparatus 20 operated with compressed air.
- additional thread injectors (not shown) in the region of circumferentially offset thread inlet openings 19, which ensure at very high working speeds of the false twist crimping machine 2 that the threads 8 which continue to run at the speed of the delivery mechanisms 10 during a bobbin change do not accumulate and undesirable Can form windings, but are transported away via the thread transport system 14 to a thread collecting container 21 for the thread remnants.
- the air supply to the respective additional injectors is preferably actuated by thread break sensors arranged in the thread run or by contacting triggered by the thread clamps.
- the tubes of the thread transport system 14, which run parallel to the longitudinal axis of the machine in the three levels of the winding units 13, are brought together and open on the suction side of the jet apparatus 20.
- This is supplied with the compressed working medium 22 from the in-house compressed air network via a pipeline in the direction of the arrow , It leaves the jet apparatus 20 in the direction of the thread collecting container 21 and can escape into the surroundings essentially without pressure.
- Fig. 3 shows a somewhat more detailed representation of the blasting apparatus 20 and the collecting container 21 attached thereto for those with thread breakage or a Bobbin change occurring threads 8 or thread remnants.
- the jet apparatus 20 is designed as an ejector device.
- the ejector device 20 consists of a flanged two-part housing 201, 202, the upper part 201 of which has a pressure connection 209 with a screwed-in and sealed pipe socket 203 for the supply of the working medium and the suction-side suction connection 204 for the thread transport system 14.
- a switching valve 23 preferably a solenoid valve, is arranged on the pipe socket 203 of the pressure medium line and can be switched by a thread break sensor (not shown) or a bobbin change signal at one of the thread processing points or winding units 13 of the textile machine.
- the pipe socket 203 opens into an injector nozzle 208, through which the supplied working medium 22, for example compressed air, is introduced into a mixing zone 205.
- the lower part 202 of the housing contains the mixing zone 205 and the blow connection 206 as well as an end flange 207, with which the housing part 202 is screwed to the cover 25 of the thread collecting container 21.
- a manifold 26 is also inserted through which the expanded working fluid can escape into the environment essentially without pressure.
- the thread collecting container 21 is preferably of circular cylindrical design and has a flap 27 on its bottom which can be pivoted about a horizontal axis 28. It can be actuated by a swivel drive (not shown in more detail) when the thread waste collecting container 29 attached to the thread collecting container 21 is filled and is to be replaced. Then the thread collecting container 21 also has the function of a thread buffer when the flap 27 is closed.
- the thread waste collection container 29 is preferably a thread waste bag, which is fastened to the collecting container 21 in a suitable manner, for example by means of a drawstring.
- a thread waste bag which is fastened to the collecting container 21 in a suitable manner, for example by means of a drawstring.
- Suitable materials for this are disposable plastic bags - similar to household garbage bags - made of perforated or gas-permeable film webs, as well as bags made of textile materials made of woven, knitted, knitted or especially shaved Sheets and nonwovens are made. Films and textile materials that are also processed on the textile machine, for example textured, are preferred in order to be able to easily recycle the thread waste filled with thread remnants as a whole.
- the usual materials are therefore polyester like PETP, polyamide like PA 6 and PA 6.6 as well as polypropylene.
- FIG. 4 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a thread waste device 24, as would be used, for example, in a false twist texturing machine according to FIG. 1.
- the thread waste device 24 consists of a thread transport system 14, an ejector 20 and a thread waste bag 29.
- the thread transport system 14 is essentially formed from a collecting pipe 33 and a plurality of suction pipes 34 connected to the collecting pipe.
- Each processing point 31 is assigned a suction pipe 34.
- the suction tube 34 at the end forms a thread inlet opening 19 in order to receive a thread during a bobbin change or a thread break.
- the thread inlet opening 19 on the suction pipe 34 is assigned a closure device 32, by means of which the thread inlet opening 19 on the suction pipe 34 can be closed.
- the closure device 32 of the processing points 31 can be controlled both individually and in groups.
- a thread injector 30 is arranged on the suction pipe 34 just below the thread inlet opening 19 in the suction direction, through which a compressed air is introduced into the suction pipe 34. This results in an additional intensification of the suction effect which arises at the thread inlet opening 19.
- Each of the processing points 31 is configured identically in the design of the suction pipe 34.
- the suction pipes 34 are connected to the manifold 33.
- the ejector device 20 is connected to a suction connection 204 at the downstream end of the collecting pipe 33.
- the ejector device 20 has a pressure connection 209, to which a preferably controllable compressed air source (not shown here) is connected.
- the working medium 22, preferably compressed air, supplied via the pressure connection 209 is fed via an injector nozzle 208 into a mixing zone 205, which is connected to the suction connection 204.
- the working medium 22 is then on the Blown port 206 removed.
- the threads in the connected thread transport system 14 are sucked in via the suction connection 204 and discharged with the working fluid through the blow connection 206.
- a thread waste bag 29 is detachably fastened directly to a pipe flange on the blow connection 206 as a collecting container. Thus, all threads picked up from the processing points 31 are blown together into the thread waste bag 29.
- the gaseous working medium is preferably discharged into the environment through the gas-permeable wall of the thread waste bag 29.
- the thread waste can be compressed to a high packing density in the thread waste bag 29 due to the blowing effect.
- the texturing machine according to the invention was described using a false twist crimping machine according to FIG. 1.
- such textile machines can also be used for spinning, twisting or texturing threads.
- Thread waste collection container thread waste bag
