Description
- This invention relates to a device for transversely centring and widening a fabric in open-width form fed along a longitudinal direction and without mechanical contact.
- In the technology of the textile industry, a fabric being fed lengthways very often, and for various purposes, needs to be widened and spread out crossways using automated methods.
- To enable this to be done, mechanical devices are known which comprise helical widening rollers used to apply a widening action on the fabric.
- These devices may also comprise centring systems, also mechanical, which are disjoined from the wideners and whose purpose is to compensate for misalignment and keep the fabric centred on the feed line by applying corrective movements to the fabric in response to displacements which the fabric may undergo as it moves forward.
-
EP1050500A2 discloses a centring/widening device adapted to widen and centre a fabric strip on a reference axis, the device consisting of two parallel tubes which are separated between them and face each other by a part of their wall for their entire length, both of said parts of wall being provided with nozzles (intended to blow, on the fabric advancing between them, the pressured air which is sent through said tubes by a fan. -
DE19643524A1 discloses a device for moving a band of flexible material especially textile. It uses a blast of compressed air which enters terminal boxes which surround the edges of the strip of material. The compressed air is blown through nozzles which face back towards the edges of the strip of material. This ensures that the material is stretched laterally and crumpling and sagging in the middle is avoided. The air jets are angled so that the air issuing from them has an axial component so as to drag the strip along in its longitudinal direction. - Devices of this kind, although widely used in the sector, suffer from several disadvantages and functional limitations. In effect, some types of particularly delicate fabrics may be damaged by direct contact with mechanical parts which scrape the surface of the fabric or tangle its fibres. Another disadvantage is due to the fact that the operation of these mechanical devices requires keeping the fabric tensioned lengthways. As a result, certain types of fabric, such as knitted fabrics, for which lengthwise tensioning is highly inadvisable, may be treated with these mechanical devices with great difficulty and with relatively unsatisfactory results in terms of quality. Moreover, if the fabric also has to be subjected to thermal treatment - for example, drying or cooling - the above mentioned mechanical devices need to be integrated in other specific devices, creating working combinations which are complex in terms of plant engineering and which raise the overall cost of the production process.
- This invention therefore has for an aim to overcome the above mentioned disadvantages by providing a device whose technical features are set out in the appended claims and whose advantages are more apparent from the following detailed description made with reference to the accompanying drawings which illustrate a non-limiting example embodiment of it.
- In the drawings:
-
Figure 1 is a perspective assembly view of the device according to the invention represented in a schematic and partial form; -
Figure 2 is a view of the device ofFigure 1 , cut along a horizontal plane in order to better illustrate some internal parts of it; -
Figures 3a and 3b are perspective views, cut along a horizontal plane, of a variant embodiment of the invention ofFigure 1 in two different operating conditions; -
Figure 4 is a perspective assembly view of a more complex embodiment of the invention ofFigure 1 ; -
Figure 5 is a perspective horizontal cross section of the device ofFigure 4 ; -
Figures 6 ,7a ,7b ,8a, 8b are views of the device ofFigure 4 , with some parts cut away in order to better illustrate internal parts of it, according to specific operating states; -
Figure 9 illustrates a system for treating a knitted fabric comprising the device of the invention. - With reference to the accompanying drawings, the numeral 1 in
Figure 1 denotes a widening and centring device, without mechanical contact, for aportion 2 of fabric in open-width form fed along alongitudinal feed direction 3, preferably vertical. - The device 1 essentially comprises a
horizontal structure 30, in the shape of a parallelepiped, having a rectangular throughslot 23, which theportion 2 of fabric passes through as it moves continuously along the vertical,longitudinal direction 3 under a suitable feeding action applied to theportion 2 by respective feed means not illustrated. InFigure 2 , it may be noted that the device 1 comprises twogrooves 24 which are associated with theslot 23 and which are oriented in ahorizontal direction 8, transversal to theportion 2 of fabric. - More specifically, the
grooves 24 are located bilaterally to theportion 2 of fabric and the open sides of their contours are directed towards theopposite faces portion 2. - Substantially half way along the
slot 23, the device 1 comprises twoducts 5 connected to thegrooves 24 to supply thegrooves 24 with a pressurizedair flow 4. - As shown in
Figure 2 , theducts 5 blow into thegrooves 24 gaseous flows 4 of pressurized air which travel thegrooves 24 from the centre towards the periphery of theportion 2 of fabric tangentially along theportion 2 itself in thetransversal direction 8. Thestructure 30 of the device 1 also comprises directing means for selectively directing into eachgroove 24 thegaseous flow 4 delivered by therespective supply duct 5. - From
Figure 2 , it may be noted that the directing means comprise asmall diverter plate 6 housed in thegroove 24 facing therespective supply duct 5. Theplate 6, when struck by thetotal flow 4 from theduct 5, divides the flow into two oppositely directedflows portion 2 of fabric and flowing in thegrooves 24 tangentially to theportion 2 and progressively towards thelateral edges 2t thereof. - Since the
flows 4 operate in opposition to each other, theportion 2 of fabric is subjected to a strong tangential pulling action which causes it to spread out in itstransversal direction 8 and keeps it in that condition. If the opposite flows 4d and 4s were not identical, that is, such as to balance each other, theportion 2 of fabric would, in its entirety, be subjected to translation in thetransversal direction 8, which would cause it to be displaced sideways, resulting in its misalignment relative to the middle of theslot 23. - The air which supplies the
gaseous flow 4 thus operates on the fabric like a totally fluid widening and centring actuator without direct contact with rigid parts. - Moreover, the air can advantageously be heated or cooled to be used as fabric drying or cooling means. Such drying means might therefore be integrated or able to be integrated at a very low cost into the fluid actuator to meet other technological requirements related to fabric processing.
- Furthermore, the supply flow rate might be made variable in order to adjust the intensity of the actions applied to the fabric.
-
Figures 3a and 3b show a variant embodiment of the device ofFigure 2 , where the directing means include shutoff means 7 - preferably embodied in this specific case by swing flap valves - interposed between the fixeddiverter plate 6 inside thegrooves 24 and the end part of thesupply ducts 5. - By suitably adjusting the orientation of the flap valves it is possible to modulate the
flows 4 more or totally towards one or the other of theedges 2t of theportion 2 of fabric so as to cause theportion 2 in its entirety to move decidedly one way or the other along thetransversal direction 8, as may be clearly observed by comparingFigures 3a and 3b .Figure 4 shows another version of the device according to the invention, denoted in this case by thenumeral 9, which allows both widening and centring - if necessary with large displacements - of theportion 2 of fabric as it moves through theslot 23 continuously. In this drawing, as in the other drawings accompanying this specification, theportion 2 of fabric is considered as moving from the bottom up. This feature is totally exemplary and non-limiting, it being understood that the device 1 is perfectly reversible and can operate just as well with the fabric moving in the exact opposite direction. -
Figure 4 also shows theair flows 4 which supply thedevice 9 and those which travel along thegrooves 24 towards the outside in such a way as to act on the fabric. - In
Figure 5 it may be noted that in the embodiment of thedevice 9 described here, the directing means comprise, in addition to the twosmall middle plates 6, four furthersmall diverter plates 16 which are located at the sides of theslot 23 and which are designed to divert in a direction transversal to theportion 2 of fabric the air supplied into thedevice 9. - The directing means also comprise two
spool valves slot 23 and driven by pairs of pneumaticmini cylinders spool valves slot 23, that is, towards the right-hand side of theportion 2 of fabric, or towards the left-hand end. - The directing means also comprise two
further spool valves slot 23 and driven bypneumatic minicylinders 11 and 12; and twofurther spool valves slot 23 and driven bypneumatic minicylinders - The
spool valves other edge 2t of theportion 2 of fabric. This action makes it possible to implement pushing actuators acting on theedge 2t of theportion 2 and designed to push it, if necessary, in thetransversal direction 8 and to locally reinforce the main action produced by the state of themiddle spool valves portion 2 of fabric is greatly displaced to one side or the other relative to the middle of theslot 23. -
Figures 6 to 8b well clarify the technical concepts set out above. - From
Figure 6 , looking at the paths of theair flows 4 indicated by the arrows, it may be inferred that in the condition where theend spool valves middle spool valves device 9 applies a powerful pulling action on the fabric both ways along thetransversal direction 8, thereby imparting a strong widening action and a moderate centring action on theportion 2 of the fabric relative to the middle of theslot 23. - In
Figure 7a , theend spool valves middle spool valves device 9 applies a strong transversal pulling action on the fabric, causing theportion 2 in its entirety to be greatly displaced towards the right. -
Figure 7b shows the same condition but where theportion 2 of fabric undergoes a strong displacing action towards the left. - In
Figure 8a , theend spool valves slot 23 are open, while those on the right 18,19 are closed. Themiddle spool valves device 9 applies a very strong displacing action towards the right to return theportion 2 to the centre even if it is all to the left of theslot 23. - In
Figure 8b , the situation is reversed, that is to say: theend spool valves middle spool valves air flow 4 is directed towards the left. In this case, thedevice 9 applies a very strong displacing action towards the left even if theportion 2 is initially all to the right of theslot 23. - The device according to the invention fully achieves the aims of widening and centring a
portion 2 of fabric on the feed line and, moreover, offers further major advantages. - In effect, since the fabric does not come into contact with mechanical parts, or in any case, with any rigid parts, the
faces - The fabric is practically not stretched lengthways at all but the
portion 2 of fabric is subjected to a pulling action only in thetransversal direction 8, which means that a wide variety of fabrics, including knitted fabrics, can advantageously be treated without any limitations. - Fabric centring relative to the feed line can be controlled very effectively at all times, even when the fabric is totally off centre. This, on the contrary, constitutes a major limitation in prior art devices.
- Additional thermal treatments of the fabric can be easily and economically integrated in the device by heating and cooling the very same air which is used for the primary purposes of widening the centring the fabric.
- The totally reversible operation of the device on the feed line is decidedly more advantageous than traditional mechanical devices which operate in one direction only. The spool and/or flap valves used to control the transversal position of the fabric can advantageously be controlled automatically by a control system driven by electronic sensors which detect the position of the two edges of the fabric.

Figure 9 illustrates a system for treating a knitted fabric M, comprising two or more vibratory tanks (threetanks 90,91,92 in the example illustrated) placed one after the other. The fabric M is fed/picked up from each tank by means of widening/centring devices 93 having the features set out above and positioned at the infeed of thefirst tank 90, at the outfeed of the last tank 92 and between each pair of successive tanks (90,91 and 91,92 in the example). Advantageously, further widening/centring devices 94 can be located substantially in the middle of one ormore tanks 90,91 to pick up the fabric from the tank and release it into the same tank.
