Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a yarn-feeding apparatus for textile machines, particularly knitting machines, with control of the main feeding parameters.
  • tension sensors are used for measuring/controlling the tension of the yarn fed to the machine in order to maintain it substantially constant.
  • a signal indicative of the yarn-feeding speed which is calculated on the basis of the speed of rotation and of the diameter of the yarn-winding drum, is transmitted to the control unit of the machine; the control unit adjusts the stitches as a function this speed in such a way as to compensate the difference between the yarn-feeding speed and the yarn-drawing speed.
  • a yarn feeding apparatus 10 in which a yarn 12 is drawn from a reel 14 and is fed to a conventional textile machine, preferably a knitting machine 16, via a yarn feeder 18 of a known type provided with a stationary drum.
  • a feeder of the above type is described, e.g., in EP 707 102 of Applicant, and comprises a stationary drum 20 on which a flywheel 22 driven by a motor 24 winds a plurality of yarn loops forming a weft stock 26. Upon request from machine 16, the loops are unwound from drum 20 and are fed to the machine.
  • Feeder 18 is also provided with braking means comprising a frustoconical, hollow braking member 28 which is coaxially arranged with its larger base in front of stationary drum 20 and is biased with its inner surface against the delivery edge of the drum by actuator means 30.
  • the yarn delivered by feeder 18 is pressed between the delivery edge of drum 20 and braking member 28, whereby it is subjected to a braking action by friction.
  • Actuator means 30 are controlled by a feeder control unit 32 which receives a tension signal TS from a tension sensor 33 arranged along the path of the yarn and, on the basis of it, applies a braking signal BS to actuator means 30, which signal is modulated in such a way as to maintain the yarn tension substantially constant.
  • Yarn feeder 18 is also provided with a sensor 34 for continuously measuring the yarn consumption, preferably a piezoelectric sensor connected as described in EP 1 335 054 of Applicant. Alternatively, an optical sensor as described in EP 0 327 973 could be used.
  • the term “consumption” or "speed” is intended to define the amount of yarn delivered from the drum over time.
  • the signal transmitted by sensor 34 which typically is a pulse signal PS, is processed by control unit 32 in order to calculate the exact number of loops and portions of loop which are unwound from the drum, thereby generating a very accurate comsumption signal YC.
  • Consumption signal YC is transmitted to a machine control unit 36 programmed to compare the measured consumption with a predetermined consumption range and to adjust the stitches (not shown) as a function of the difference between these two values.
  • yarn 12 is fed to machine 16 via feeder 24, with a tension which is maintained substantially constant by the modulated braking action applied by braking member 28. If the braking action applied by braking member 28 causes yarn 12, whose speed is measured by sensor 34, to slow down below the consumption range set on the downstream machine 16, machine control unit 36 adjusts the stitches in such a way as to compensate the difference between these two values.
  • apparatus 10 allows the tension of yarn 12 to be controlled, and the stitches to be adjusted, very accurately, by using a yarn feeder 18 of the type provided with a stationary drum and with braking means operated in such a way as to control the tension of the yarn without directly influencing the yarn-feeding speed. This leads to less frequent interventions of the loop compensating the variations of speed and, consequently, to reduced wear of the mechanisms which adjust the stitches.
  • the apparatus according to the invention is not subjected to the drawbacks deriving from the use of feeders having a rotating drum, with which, as mentioned above, the quickness of response of the system is affected by the inertia of the yarn-winding drum and by the adjusting criterion that is adopted.
  • the apparatus according to the invention makes use of a very accurate consumption-measuring system, which also enhances the accuracy of the loop compensating the variations of speed.
  • Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of the invention, in which the corresponding or similar parts are referred to by the same reference numbers.
  • yarn 12 is braked downstream of yarn consumption sensor 34, e.g., by a brake 128 of the type described in EP 1 072 707 , wherein the yarn is braked by friction between a pressure member operated by a motor and a stationary base.
  • a brake 128 of the type described in EP 1 072 707 wherein the yarn is braked by friction between a pressure member operated by a motor and a stationary base.
  • the braking means used in either the first or the second embodiment my be of different types, e.g., in the case of the first embodiment, metal foil brakes, brush brakes, and the like could be used, while, in the case of the second embodiment, swinging arm brakes could be used, as well known to the person skilled in the art.
