Definitions

  • the invention relates to a combing device for combing a fiber material according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a combing machine whereby a tear-off roller cooperates with a tear-off segment of a combing roller for the tear-off process, has already been developed by Heilmann in 1845.
  • a tear-off roller in this case tear-off cylinder
  • the fiber bundle torn off by a tear-off roller in this case tear-off cylinder
  • the pair of rollers is driven by a
  • the length of the fiber tuft projecting beyond the clamping point of the tongs increases by the amount supplied, which is available for the subsequent combing operation in the event of subsequently closed tongs.
  • the combing process and the tearing off in relation to the distance between the pliers and the clamping point of the tear-off roller should be better matched.
  • the ends of the tear-off roller are stored in sleeves, which are received in forks.
  • the sleeves to achieve the clamping effect of the tear-off rollers, acted upon by weight-loaded hooks.
  • the hooks and thus the tear-off roller are loaded via correspondingly mounted mechanical springs.
  • Such devices are difficult to access for maintenance purposes in the area of the nipper unit and in some cases require special tools in order to transfer the elements loaded with load devices (such as the tear-off roller, feed roller, etc.) into an inoperative position.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to improve known devices and to propose a device by means of which a simple and quick accessibility to the nipper unit is made possible.
  • the nipper unit is associated with a pivotally mounted frame in the machine frame, the free end of which is pivotable about a fixedly mounted in the machine frame axis, which runs parallel to the axis of rotation of the tear-off roller, and means are provided, via which the pivotable end of the frame in an operating position and at least one Ausser Wegswolf in its position is determined and at least one of the elements, such as the storage of Abreisswalze and / or the storage of the feed roller and / or the Fixkamm is held on the frame.
  • the elements pivoted out by means of the frame such as the tear-off roller, the feed roller and the fixed comb, allow free access to the nipper unit.
  • possibly occurring material congestion in the nipper unit (short "pliers" called) to eliminate them after swinging the frame quickly and easily to resume the operation of the comber as quickly as possible.
  • this device also facilitates the piecing process of a new end of the wad after a roll change.
  • the tear-off roller is followed by a web-forming device, in which the fiber packages drawn off from the tear-off roller are brought together to form a fiber fleece, or are soldered. It is conceivable that also elements of this device are attached to the swing-out frame, via which they can also be moved into a shut-off position.
  • the claimed use of a swing-out frame is particularly suitable for one embodiment wherein the lower tong plate remains in a stationary position in the machine frame during a comb play.
  • the term "stationary” refers to the position of the tong plate tangent to the combing cylinder. A slight movement of the lower tong plate during a comb play, viewed in the radial direction of the combing cylinder, is still included under the term "stationary".
  • the feed roller can rest directly on the lower pliers plate or optionally be positioned at a small distance to the lower pliers plate in its working position.
  • the loading device for the upper tong plate is also held on the frame.
  • the loading device is formed of bellows cylinders, which is supported at one end to the frame and at its other end on connected to the upper pliers plate elements. This gives a space-saving and low-vibration load device, which is also easily coupled with the elements of the pliers plate.
  • the elements are each equipped with a support surface for the bellows cylinder, which are provided with an opening into which an extension of the bellows cylinder protrudes when the bellows cylinder is supported on the support surface.
  • an embodiment is proposed, wherein the support of the feed roll are movably held in guides connected to the frame receptacles and spring elements are provided in the guides, the are arranged between the receptacle and the respective storage of the feed roller.
  • the recordings can also be integrated directly in the frame.
  • the ridge be movably mounted on the pivotable frame and connected to drive means which are coupled to further drive means for driving the feed roller.
  • the tear-off roller is rotatably mounted on both sides in bearing receptacles, which are held on the pivotable frame via retaining elements.
  • the holding elements are movably mounted in the direction of the axis of rotation of the combing cylinder in guides on the pivotal frame and the loading means of the tear-off rest with one end on the respective holding element and with its other end on the pivotal frame.
  • loading means are proposed from pressurizable with compressed air bellows cylinders (B1, B2), which are each secured with its one end on the pivotable frame. These have excellent damping and noise reduction properties in this application and also require little space.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic side view of a combing head, of which, as a rule, several are arranged side by side.
  • a schematically indicated nipper unit 1 is provided above a combing cylinder 16.
  • the combing cylinder 16 is rotatably mounted about the axis 15 in the machine frame.
  • the combing cylinder 16 On its circumference, the combing cylinder 16 has a Kämmsegment equipped with sets 19, the opposite a tear-off segment 20 is arranged.

  • a plate 18 is fixed to the holders, on each of which a bellows cylinder B1, or B2 is supported on the support surface 28.
  • Each bellows cylinder B1, B2 is accommodated in a head part 35 and is fastened via a bracket 36 by means of screws 44 to the respective side plate 24a or 24b of the pivotable frame 24.
  • the bellows cylinders are connected via the lines 37, 38 and a valve 42 with a compressed air source 40 in connection.
  • the supply of compressed air via the valve 42 is controlled by a control unit ST, which is connected via the line 43 to the valve.
  • the bellows cylinder B1, B2 are supported with their free ends on support surfaces 28 of the plates 18.
  • the bellows cylinder at its end, with which they are supported on the support surface 18, an extension 31 which projects into an opening 33 which is mounted in the plates 18.
  • the bellows cylinder are laterally stabilized and held in position.
  • Fig. 1 shown schematically, the over the action of the nip KL withdrawn from a fiber tuft FB fiber package P is placed on the end of a fiber web V already formed on a drum T and soldered to this with partial overlap.
  • the nonwoven fabric V thus formed is removed via take-off rollers 64 of the screen drum T and fed to a device not shown in detail for forming a sliver.
  • a negative pressure is applied to guide the fiber web V.
  • the sieve drum T, or the device for Forming a combed fiber fleece can z.
  • the execution correspond to as published WO 2006/012759 A1 is shown and described in detail.
  • cams 26 are rotatably attached, on which during a comb play a respective roller 27 is guided, which are rotatably mounted in tabs 25.
  • the tabs 25 are attached to pivot arms 6 of an upper tong plate 3.
  • a pivot arm 6 is provided on both sides of the combing head, which are supported by a roller 27 on a correspondingly associated cam 26.
  • the movement of the pivot arms 6 and thus the closing movement of the nipper unit is controlled.
  • the nipper unit 1 consists of a fixed fixed in the machine frame bottom pliers plate 2, on which about an axis 4, the upper pliers plate 3 is pivotally mounted via pivot arms 6.
  • the pivot arms 6 At the pivot arms 6 in the region of the tong plate 3 load devices in the form of bellows cylinders B3, B4, via which a clamping force at the clamping point KS between the pliers lips of the forceps plates for clamping a fiber material F is generated with closed pliers.
  • the bellows cylinder B3, B4 rely on support surfaces 13 of attached to the arms 6 plates 14 from.
  • a plate 14 is provided in the respective end region of the upper tong plate 3.
  • Each bellows cylinder B3, B4 is received in a head portion 75 and is fastened via a bracket 76 via screws 44 on the pivotable frame 24.
  • the frame consists of two, mounted on an axle 46 side plates 24a, 24b, which are connected to one another via a plurality of struts V1, V2. For reasons of clarity, in the present example only two such struts ( Fig. 3 ).
  • a feed roller 5 is rotatably arranged, which are held at both ends (one end only) via holders 80 and screws 72 on the frame 24, or on its side plates 24a, 24b.
  • the holders 80 are provided with a guide slot 81 (FIG. Fig. 2 ), in which the bearing 79 for the axis 7 of the feed roller 5 is slidably guided.
  • a spring 84 is mounted between the bearing 79 and the end face 85 of the guide slot 81, which presses the bearing 79 in the direction of the lower tong plate 2 and generates a clamping force at the nip KK on the fibrous material F to be conveyed in the operating position shown .
  • the displacement of the bearing 79 within the guide slot 81 is limited by a plate 82 which is secured to the lower end of the respective holder 80. This limitation of the movement is necessary when the feed roller 5 is pivoted about the frame 24 upwards in a dot-dashed out of operation position.
  • the bearings 79 are held within the guide slots 81 in this position.
  • a distance, or a clearance 73 between the bearing 79 and the plate 82 is present, so that the compressive force of the springs 84 comes to full effect to produce the necessary clamping force.
  • the drive of the feed roller for the intermittent promotion of the fiber material F takes place in the example shown via a lever 86 which is connected to the axis of rotation 7 of the feed roller 5. Via a rotation axis 87, the lever 86 is connected to a further lever 89. This in turn is connected via a rotary joint 94 with a two-armed lever 100 which is pivotally mounted about an axis 99 fixed to the machine frame MS. At its other free end, the lever 100 has a rotatably mounted roller 83, which is supported by the action of a correspondingly arranged spring 51 on the peripheral surface of a cam 62. The cam 62 is driven via an axle 63 mounted in the machine frame. The spring 51 is supported on the machine frame MS.
  • a lever 97 is connected via a rotation axis 98, which at its other end via a further pivot axis 96 with a pivotable arranged fixed comb K is in drive connection.
  • the fixed comb K is pivotally mounted about an axis fixed to the frame 24. This drive connection ensures a synchronous movement of the feed and the fixed comb movement during a comb play.
  • the frame 24 is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis 46 on the machine frame MS.
  • a pivot axis 46 By pivoting the frame 24 about the axis 46 in an upper position, as dash-dotted lines in FIG. 1 is shown, the free access in the area of the nipper unit 1 is made possible for maintenance and cleaning purposes.
  • handles 88 are provided which are attached to the frame 24. This facilitates the operator the pivoting process, especially since the lever arm is extended by the handles.
  • the tear-off roller 8 When swinging up into the position shown in phantom with the machine stopped, the tear-off roller 8 is transferred via the guided guides 58 in the holder 12 in an upper position. In the pivoting operation, the respective plate 18 is moved by the weight of the tear-off roller 8 in the direction of the guide 58 until it is present there and further displacement is prevented.
  • the attached to the frame 24 elements such as the fixed comb F, the feed roller 5 and the bellows cylinder B3, B4 are pivoted to an upper dot-dash line position.
  • the geometric conditions are to be designed so that z. B. the feed roller 5 can be pivoted without collision with the upper tong plate 3 upwards.
  • the drive elements for driving the feed roller and the fixed comb are geometrically interpreted so that the pivoting process is not hindered by these elements and their function is not affected.
  • the locking devices 50a, 50b consist in each case of oblique contact surfaces provided with bolts 52a, 52b, which are attached to the machine frame MS.
  • This attachment of the latch 52a, 52b is such that the latch can move by a certain amount when engaging or disengaging the cam 48. This movement takes place against the force of a correspondingly arranged spring 55, which is also supported on the machine frame MS.
  • Fig. 1 After swiveling up to the inoperative position, the operator has a completely free access to the nipper unit and can easily perform maintenance and cleaning work there. As dashed in Fig. 1 indicated also the upper tong plate 2 can be swung over the pivot arms 6 effortlessly upwards, as no load device is more engaged.
  • the proposed invention allows a simple and fast operation of the individual combing heads without much effort and without special tools.
