- a fiber bundle 8 fed from the draft device 7 is spun by the air-jet spinning device 9.
- a spun yarn 10 produced by the air-jet spinning device 9 is fed via a yarn accumulating roller 21 and wound by the winding device 13, thus forming a package 45.
- a bobbin 48 (to be described later), and a yarn layer of the spun yarn 10 wound around the bobbin 48 are collectively referred to as the package 45.
- the spinning unit 2 forms a cylindrical package (cheese package) 45 using the cylindrical bobbin 48, but may also form a conical package (cone package) using a conical bobbin.
- the draft device 7 drafts a sliver 15 to obtain the fiber bundle 8.
- the draft device 7 includes four roller pairs, i.e., a back roller pair 16, a third roller pair 17, a middle roller pair 19 provided with an apron belt 18, and a front roller pair 20.
- a bottom roller of each of the roller pairs 16, 17, 19, and 20 is driven by power from the motor box 5, or by power of electric motors (not illustrated) arranged in each spinning unit 2.
- Each of the roller pairs 16, 17, 19, and 20 is driven with a different rotation speed.
- the draft device 7 can draft the sliver 15 supplied from the upstream to form the fiber bundle 8, and feed the fiber bundle 8 to the air-jet spinning device 9 located downstream.
- the air-jet spinning device 9 applies twists to the fiber bundle 8 using whirling airflow to produce the spun yarn 10.
- the air-jet spinning device 9 includes a fiber guiding section, a whirling airflow generating nozzle, and a hollow guide shaft body.
- the fiber guiding section guides the fiber bundle 8 fed from the draft device 7 to a spinning chamber formed inside the air-jet spinning device 9.
- the whirling airflow generating nozzle is arranged at a periphery of a path of the fiber bundle 8 to generate the whirling airflow in the spinning chamber. This whirling airflow causes fiber ends of the fiber bundle 8 in the spinning chamber to be reversed and to whirl.
- the hollow guide shaft body guides the spun yarn 10 from the spinning chamber to an outside of the air-jet spinning device 9. Driving and stopping of the air-jet spinning device 9 are controlled by a unit controller (not illustrated).
- the yarn accumulating device 12 is arranged downstream of the air-jet spinning device 9.
- the yarn accumulating device 12 includes the yarn accumulating roller 21, a yarn hooking member 22, an upstream guide 23, an electric motor 25, a downstream guide 26, and an accumulated amount sensor 27.
- the yarn hooking member 22 can be engaged (hooked) with the spun yarn 10.
- the yarn hooking member 22 integrally rotates with the yarn accumulating roller 21 while being engaged with the spun yarn 10 to guide the spun yarn 10 to an outer peripheral surface of the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the yarn hooking member 22 is supported in a relatively rotatable manner with respect to the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the yarn accumulating device 12 is configured to generate a torque against the relative rotation of the yarn hooking member 22 with respect to the yarn accumulating roller 21 by a torque generating means (not illustrated) including a magnetic means, for example.
- a torque generating means including a magnetic means, for example.
- Such a resistance torque enables the yarn hooking member 22 to rotate following a rotation of the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the yarn hooking member 22 and the yarn accumulating roller 21 can integrally rotate.
- the yarn hooking member 22 can relatively rotate with respect to the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the yarn accumulating roller 21 can accumulate the spun yarn 10 by winding the spun yarn 10 around the outer peripheral surface thereof.
- the yarn accumulating roller 21 is rotatably driven at a prescribed rotation speed by the electric motor 25 controlled by the unit controller.
- the spun yarn 10 guided to the outer peripheral surface of the yarn accumulating roller 21 by the yarn hooking member 22 is wound to tighten the yarn accumulating roller 21 by the rotation of the yarn accumulating roller 21, and the spun yarn 10 located upstream of the yarn accumulating device 12 is pulled. Accordingly, the spun yarn 10 can be continuously pulled out from the air-jet spinning device 9.
- the spun yarn 10 on the yarn accumulating roller 21 becomes greater than or equal to a prescribed amount, a contacting area between the yarn accumulating roller 21 and the spun yarn 10 becomes large, and a slip or the like hardly occurs. Therefore, by rotatably driving the yarn accumulating roller 21 with the spun yarn 10 of the prescribed amount or more wound around the yarn accumulating roller 21, the spun yarn 10 can be pulled out from the air-jet spinning device 9 at a stable speed without causing a slip or the like.
- the accumulated amount sensor 27 detects, in a non-contacting manner, an accumulated amount of the spun yarn 10 wound around the yarn accumulating roller 21, and transmits the accumulated amount to the unit controller.
- the upstream guide 23 is arranged slightly upstream of the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the upstream guide 23 appropriately guides the spun yarn 10 with respect to the outer peripheral surface of the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the upstream guide 23 prevents a twist of the spun yarn 10 propagating from the air-jet spinning device 9 from being transmitted downstream of the upstream guide 23.
- the downstream guide 26 is arranged slightly downstream of the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the downstream guide 26 regulates a path of the spun yarn 10 swung by the rotating yarn hooking member 22, and guides the spun yarn 10 while stabilizing a travelling path of the spun yarn 10 located downstream.
- a yarn clearer (yarn defect detection device) 52 is arranged on a front side of the frame 6 of the spinning machine 1, and at a position between the air-jet spinning device 9 and the yarn accumulating device 12.
- the spun yarn 10 spun by the air-jet spinning device 9 is passed through the yarn clearer 52 before being wound by the yarn accumulating device 12.
- the yarn clearer 52 monitors a thickness of the travelling spun yarn 10, and when a yarn defect of the spun yarn 10 is detected, the yarn clearer 52 transmits a yarn defect detection signal to the unit controller.
- the yarn clearer 52 may detect presence or absence of foreign substances contained in the spun yarn 10, in addition to the yarn defect of the thickness of the spun yarn 10.
- the unit controller Upon receiving a yarn defect detection signal, the unit controller immediately stops ejection of compressed air from the whirling airflow generating nozzle of the air-jet spinning device 9. Accordingly, the whirling airflow is stopped, the twist of the fiber bundle 8 is stopped, and introduction of the fiber bundle 8 to the air-jet spinning device 9 is also stopped. A continuation of the fibers is disconnected in the air-jet spinning device 9, and the spun yarn 10 is cut. Thereafter, the unit controller further stops the draft device 7 and the like. The unit controller transmits a control signal to the yarn joining cart 3, and the yarn joining cart 3 travels to the front of the spinning unit 2.
- the unit controller drives the air-jet spinning device 9 and the like again, the yarn joining cart 3 performs the yarn joining operation, and the winding is resumed.
- the yarn accumulating device 12 accumulates the spun yarn 10 continuously fed from the air-jet spinning device 9 around the yarn accumulating roller 21 to remove slackening of the spun yarn 10.
- the winding device 13 includes a cradle arm 71, a winding drum 72, and a traverse device 75.
- the winding drum 72 is adapted to be driven while making contact with an outer peripheral surface of the package 45.
- the traverse device 75 includes a traverse guide 76 capable of being engaged with the spun yarn 10.
- the winding device 13 drives the winding drum 72 with an electric motor (not illustrated) while reciprocating the traverse guide 76 by a driving means (not illustrated).
- the package 45 making contact with the winding drum 72 can be rotated and the spun yarn 10 can be wound into the package 45 while being traversed.
- the cradle arm 71 can rotatably support the bobbin 48, and is swingably supported about a supporting shaft (swing shaft) 70. Therefore, even if a yarn layer diameter of the package 45 is increased accompanying the winding of the spun yarn 10, the increase in the yarn layer diameter is absorbed by the swinging of the cradle arm 71, and the surface of the package 45 can be appropriately made in contact with the winding drum 72 continuously.

- a pipe unit 109 extending in the arrangement direction of the spinning units 2 is mounted on an inner wall of the frame 6.
- the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 are three parallel hollow tubes extending in the pipe unit 109 in an extending direction of the pipe unit 109.
- the three compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 are provided as a pipe group.
- One pipe unit 109 extends over a plurality of spinning units 2.
- a plurality of pipe units 109 are coupled at several coupling portions.
- the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 adjacent to one another at the coupling portion are respectively connected with an extendable extension pipe (not illustrated) .
- An insert port is provided on both ends of the extension pipe.
- the insertion port can be detachably mounted to an opening at the end of the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 without using a tool.
- the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 adjacent via the extension pipe are continuously coupled, and the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 are used to supply the compressed air to the plurality of spinning units 2.
- each pipe unit 109 can be connected to one another without a tool, and the operation can be efficiently performed even in a narrow place.
- the pipe unit 109 may be provided for each spinning unit 2.
- each of the connecting ports 103a of the male connector section 103 is inserted to each of the connecting ports 107a of the female connector section 107. Accordingly, each of the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 on the frame 6 side is connected to the port of the corresponding air cylinder 60 or the port of the lift-up air cylinder 160.
- a valve 107b (see FIG. 2 ) for preventing the leakage of the compressed air when the male connector section 103 is detached is provided at each of the connecting ports 107a of the female connector section 107.
- the valve 107b includes a valve body (not illustrated) urged from the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 towards the connecting port 107a on the flow path of the compressed air. Under a state in which the male connector section 103 is not connected to the female connector section 107, the valve body closely makes contact with the connecting port 107a to block the connecting port 107a. Accordingly, the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 are shut from the outside.
- the flow path of the air is formed by having the connecting ports 103a of the male connector section 103, which is inserted to the connecting ports 107a, pushing the valve body, and the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 are connected to the male connector section 103.
- a specific example of the valve 107b includes a check valve.
- the check valve is a device mounted to a pipe of a fluid to prohibit backflow of the fluid.
- the check valve is an example of the valve 107b, and a function of the check valve may be realized by providing a shutter or the like for preventing air leakage on the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69.
- the valve 107b is opened to pass through the compressed air from the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 to the male connector section 103. If the male connector section 103 is detached from the female connector section 107, the valve 107b is closed, and the compressed air from the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 is shut such that the compressed air does not leak outside. Even if the cradle device 100 of a spinning unit 2 is detached from the frame 6, since the compressed air does not leak out from the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69, the operation of other spinning units 2 is not required to be stopped. The cradle device 100 receives the supply of the compressed air from the three compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69, but similar configuration can be realized when receiving the supply of the compressed air from two or four or more compressed air pipes.
- the cradle device 100 can be collectively attached to or detached from the frame 6 as a module.
- all components of the cradle device 100 can be attached to or detached from the frame 6 at once. Therefore, the maintenance operation of the cradle device 100 can be easily performed.
- the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 provided on the frame 6 are also provided as a pipe group, the configuration of the entire spinning unit 2 and the entire spinning machine 1 can be simplified.
- the compressed air path can be connected with the male connector section 103 of the cradle device 100 and the female connector section 107 of the frame 6, a cumbersome operation such as attaching or detaching the tube does not arise and the cradle device 100 can be easily attached or detached.
- a plurality of cradle devices 100 of the spinning machine 1 can be individually detached from the frame 6 as a module. Even if at least one of the plurality of cradle devices 100 is detached, since flow of the compressed air from the compressed air pipes L65, L67, and L69 to the outside is shut by the valve 107b of the female connector section 107, a supplying state of the compressed air to other cradle devices 100 is hardly influenced. Thus, even when performing the maintenance operation on at least one of the cradle devices 100, the yarn winding operation can be continued in the other cradle devices 100.
- the opening-and-closing shaft 71c adapted to open and close the cradle arm 71 of the cradle device 100 is provided below the supporting shaft 70 of the cradle arm 71.
- the bobbin holder 105 and the opening-and-closing shaft 71c are located away from one another. Thus, even if the width of the package 45 is changed, change in an angle formed by the holding arm 71a and the holding arm 71b for sandwiching the package 45 is small.
- the package 45 can be sandwiched and held under a state in which the holding arm 71a and the holding arm 71b are almost parallel. As a result, a shift in rotational axis of the bobbin holders 105 is small, and the held package 45 can be smoothly rotated.
- the swing shaft of the cradle arm may extend across the plurality of spinning units 2, and may be commonly used for the plurality of spinning units 2.
- arranging the opening-and-closing shaft of the holding arm at a position lower than the swing shaft of the cradle arm is difficult.
- the cradle device 100 since the cradle device 100 is individually modularized for every spinning unit 2, the supporting shaft 70 and the opening-and-closing shaft 71c can be relatively freely arranged. As a result, the above-described configuration is achieved.
- the doffing device 59 performs the opening and closing of the cradle arm 71 by the cradle operating arm 89 to detach the package 45 or mount the bobbin 48. Thus, workability of the doffing operation is improved.
- the male connector section 103 is arranged to horizontally face the female connector section 107 provided on the vertical surface 6b of the frame 6, but the male connector section (the first connecting section) and the female connector section (the second connecting section) may be arranged to vertically face one another in the present invention.
- the female connector section may be provided on the horizontal surface 6a of the frame 6 with the connecting port directed upward, and the male connector section may be arranged at the corresponding position of the supporting leg section 101 with the connecting port directed downward.
- Combination of the male connector section and the female connector section is not limited to those described in the embodiment, and the male connector may be provided on the frame 6 and the female connector may be provided on the cradle device 100.
- the compressed air path is connected with the male connector section (the first connecting section) 103 and the female connector section (the second connecting section) 107, but the first and second connecting sections of the present invention may be connecting sections for connecting electrical wiring.
- the spun yarn 10 is pulled out from the air-jet spinning device 9 by the yarn accumulating roller 21.
- the present invention may be applied to a spinning machine and a spinning unit in which a spun yarn is pulled out from the air-jet spinning device with a delivery roller and a nip roller.
- the whirling airflow of the air-jet spinning device 9 is stopped when the yarn defect is detected, and the spun yarn 10 is cut.
- the present invention may be applied to a spinning machine and a spinning unit in which a spun yarn is cut using a cutter.
- the yarn path is arranged such that the spun yarn 10 travels downward from the draft device 7 at an upper part towards the winding device 13 at a lower part.
- the present invention may be applied to a spinning machine and a spinning unit in which a yarn path is arranged to travel from bottom to top.
- the air-jet spinning device 9 may include a needle held by the fiber guiding section, and arranged to protrude into the spinning chamber.
- the needle prevents the twists of the fiber bundle 8 from being propagated towards the upstream of the air-jet spinning device 9.
- the air-jet spinning device 9 may prevent the propagation of the twist of the fiber bundle 8 by a downstream edge of the fiber guiding section.
- the air-jet spinning device 9 may include a pair of air-jet nozzles adapted to apply twists in opposite directions from one another.
- the bottom rollers of the draft device 7 and the traverse mechanism of the traverse device 75 are commonly driven for a plurality of spinning units 2.
- the present invention may be applied to a spinning machine and a spinning unit in which each section of the spinning unit (e.g., the draft device, the air-jet spinning device, the yarn winding device, or the like) is independently driven for each spinning unit 2.
- the present invention is not limited to the air-jet spinning machine, and can be applied to other yarn winding machines such as an open-end spinning machine, an automatic winder, and the like.
