In this conventional yarn tension detecting sensor, the measurable range and accuracy of the yarn tension largely depend on the mechanical properties of the base member. The range in which the yarn tension can be accurately measured has been limited. Therefore, there is no problem when the type and thickness of the yarn to be measured are not so different and the measurement range of the desired tension is narrow, but when the type and thickness of the yarn to be measured are greatly different, the following problems occur. Occurs.

[0004] Since the tension of the yarn to be measured is mainly high, when a base member corresponding to a high tension is used, the tension can be measured with high accuracy if the yarn is thick. The proportion occupied increased, and the tension could only be measured with a modest accuracy. For example, it is assumed that a measurement range of the tension is 50 g to 200 g and a tension detection sensor having an error of ± 6 g is used. When the yarn is thick and the set tension is 150 grams, the ratio of the error of 6 grams to the set tension is as small as 4%, but when the yarn is thin and the set tension is 60 grams, the error is small. The occupying ratio is as large as 10%.

On the contrary, when the base member corresponding to a low tension is used mainly because the tension of the yarn to be measured is low, the tension can be measured with high accuracy when the yarn is thin, but it is possible to measure when the yarn is thick. It is possible that the tension cannot be measured outside the range. For example, the measurable range of tension is 25 grams to 1
If a tension detecting sensor having an error of ± 2 gram is used for the 00 g, it cannot be measured when the yarn is thick and the set tension is 150 g. As a result, since a base member corresponding to a high tension is usually used so that measurement can be performed in a wide range, measurement accuracy at a low tension has been a problem.

When a tension F is applied to the thread guide 4, the tension F is transmitted from the thread guide 4 to the base member 2 via the load transmitting member 3. Since the load transmitting member 3 is a cantilever with respect to the base member 2, when tension is transmitted to the base member 2, a moment M opposite to the load direction acts on the base member 2, and the moment M Distortion occurs in the base member 2 according to the size of M. The strain detected in the strain detecting element 5 is distorted by the strain generated in the base member 2, and the amount of strain detected by distorting the strain detecting element 5 is converted into an electric signal, sent to a CPU (not shown), and converted into a tension value.

Even if an excessive tension is applied to the thread guide 4, the load transmitting member 3 comes into contact with the contact portion 7 of the protective member 6, so that the base member 2 is not distorted by a predetermined amount or more. For this reason, by setting the size of the diameter of the contact portion 7 of the protection member 6 to a size that does not break the strain detecting element 5, the strain detecting element 5 is protected from destruction.

A case in which the measurement in the low tension range to the measurement in the high tension range, such as when the yarn to be measured changes from a thin yarn to a thick yarn, will be described below. In the yarn quantity force detection sensor 1 according to the present embodiment, when a strong yarn tension is applied, the load transmitting member 3 comes into contact with the bending contact portion 9. Further, the load transmitting member 3 is configured so that only the fulcrum is bent with the contact portion 9 as a fulcrum. Tension is measured by the strain detecting elements 8 other than the strain detecting element 5 by using the deflection before the fulcrum. For this reason, the strain detecting element 8 is provided substantially at a position between the position where the load transmitting member 3 comes into contact with the contact portion 9 and the yarn guide 4. When a predetermined or more yarn tension is applied to the yarn guide 4, a moment m is applied in the same direction as the load direction before a position (fulcrum) where the yarn guide 4 comes into contact with the contact portion 9 of the load transmitting member 3. The strain due to the bending caused by the moment m is detected by the strain detecting element 8 and converted into an electric signal, whereby the tension (high tension) of the thick thread can be measured. That is, not only the weak tension detected by the strain detection element 5 but also the strong tension detected by the strain detection element 8 can be measured, and a wide range of tension measurement can be performed.
In the present embodiment, since the load transmitting member 3 is also used as a base member, it is not necessary to provide a separate base member.

Since the strain detecting element detects a force based on the amount of strain, the measurable range and accuracy vary depending on the mechanical properties of the base member on which the strain detecting element is provided. In other words, if the material of the base member is selected according to the measurable range, the tension can be measured with a desired accuracy in a desired measurable range. To this end, the material of the base member 2 is made of a material having an appropriate durability even though it is thin, such as stainless steel or a hollow metal plate processed from stainless steel, so that low tension can be accurately measured. And the load transmitting member 3
The material of the base member 2 is so light that the base member 2 is not distorted by the weight of the load transmitting member 3 even if the wall thickness is large, so that high tension can be accurately measured. To When the above-mentioned materials are used for the base member 2 and the load transmitting member 3, appropriate accuracy can be measured according to the thickness and type of each of the thick and thin yarns by adjusting the thickness and the like. .

However, if the material of the load transmitting member 3 is too soft, the load transmitting member 3 bends and absorbs the force, so that an appropriate force is not applied to the base member 2. Conversely, if it is too hard, there is no deflection, and measurement cannot be performed when the tension is large. For this reason, it is necessary to sufficiently consider the thickness, the material, and the like according to the measurable range of the desired tension.

The combination of the materials and thicknesses of the base member 2 and the load transmitting member 3 makes it possible to make the measurement range continuous, but it is possible that the base member 2 is distorted and the load transmitting member 3 is simultaneously bent. And the force is absorbed by the load transmitting member 3, which is not preferable from the viewpoint of measurement accuracy. Therefore, it is preferable to set a stepwise measurable range.

Further, the material and the like may be changed between one cylinder without changing the thickness of the diameter so as to be easily bent. Conversely, the amount of bending may be changed by making the bending difficult. The amount of deflection may be changed depending on the position of one load transmitting member 3, and a strain detecting element may be provided for each position to increase the measurable range of the yarn tension in a stepwise manner.

(3) As a member that can be used as a base member other than the base member 2 and the load transmitting member 3, a main body frame 10 that supports the protection member 6 is considered. If a strong tension is applied, the load transmitting member 3 comes into contact and a load is applied to the protective member 6. Then, similarly to the base member 2 supporting the load transmitting member 3, distortion occurs near the support of the protective member 6 of the main body frame 10 that cantileverly supports the protective member 6. By utilizing this distortion, a distortion detecting element may be provided to measure a high thread tension. Of course, if the main body frame 10 is too hard, the main body frame 10 will not be distorted. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the material, thickness, and the like in the vicinity of supporting the protection member 6.
