Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und ein System mit Fadenliefergeräten zur Überwachung der Produktion einer Strickmaschine. Die Fadenlieferung der Fadenliefergeräte wird mit einer Überwachungsvorrichtung, z. B. mit einem Laufwächter oder einem optischen Sensor, überwacht und die Strickmaschine bei fehlender Fadenlieferung gestoppt. Problematisch dabei ist, dass eine Überwachungsvorrichtung möglicherweise auch dann einen Fehler anzeigt, wenn die Strickmaschine steht oder wenn vom Bedienpersonal einzelne Fäden manuell bewegt werden.The invention relates to a method and a system with thread feed devices for monitoring the production of a knitting machine. The thread delivery of the thread feeding devices is monitored with a monitoring device, e.g. B. with a running monitor or an optical sensor, and the knitting machine is stopped if there is no thread delivery. The problem here is that a monitoring device may also indicate an error when the knitting machine is at a standstill or when individual threads are moved manually by the operating personnel.

Für jeden Laufwächter sind eine Anzeigevorrichtung mit einem Speicherglied und ein an dieses angeschlossenes Anzeigeorgan zur Daueranzeige eines Fadenbruchs sowie ein Schaltglied, das bewirkt, dass ein einen Fadenbruch anzeigendes Signal des Laufwächters nur während der Dauer des Kontrollsignals das Speicherglied setzt, vorgesehen.So that, in the event of a thread break, a standing individual display occurs only at the relevant work station, the electronic device has a circuit for generating a control signal within the interval in which the drive device is switched on. A display device with a memory element and a display element connected to this for continuous display of a thread breakage and a switching element which causes a signal from the movement sensor indicating a thread break to only set the memory element for the duration of the control signal are provided for each movement monitor.

Das Kontrollsignal wird aus dem Motorsteuerkreis der gemeinsamen Antriebsvorrichtung generiert.The monitoring device only triggers a shutdown when the control signal indicates that the machine is running. The control signal is generated from the motor control circuit of the common drive device.

Falls ja, sind die Strickmaschine und auch das Fadenliefergerät 1 in Betrieb. Die Überprüfung wird wiederholt.If so, the knitting machine and also the
Falls nein, d. h. falls bei laufender Strickmaschine keine Abzugsimpulse I vorhanden sind, erzeugt die Kontrolleinheit 8, und zwar die Steuereinheit, ein Stoppsignal. Dazu wird der Schalter S1 durch die Steuereinheit betätigt. Über die andere (untere) Halbwelle wird das Stoppsignal zur Relaiseinheit R der Strickmaschine gesendet und die Strickmaschine gestoppt.If not, d.
