[0048]
The present invention is provided for manufacturing the three-dimensional composition like the wire fabric composing three-dimensional structure based on the composition principle of the braid, utilizing [0049] filiform elements 1 having the rigidity like wire for example, more specifically for manufacturing a three-dimensional 3X composition ST1 shown in a reference mark 11 in FIG. 2A, a three-dimensional 4X composition ST2 shown in a reference mark 12 in FIG. 2B and a three-dimensional 6X-3X composition ST3 shown in a reference mark 13 in FIG. 2C as the concrete composition example.

First, the manufacturing device for three-dimensional composition according to the present invention, which composes the three-dimensional composition by the numerous filiform elements pulled out individually from the numerous bobbins [0051] 2 as shown in FIG. 1, has a filiform element supply means 3 for supplying the above numerous filiform elements 1 individually to a composed position P1, a filiform element distributing means 4 for composing the above numerous filiform elements 1 such as to accept the numerous filiform elements 1 supplied from the above filiform element supply means 3 by at least three, to interconnect the filiform elements 1 from at least three directions to the composing direction at intervals and to separate to at least three directions and a composition pulling-up means 5 pulled up the composed composition ST1, ST2 or ST3.
According to the present invention, the above filiform supply means [0052] 3 is composed such that, for example, the numerous bobbins 2 are supported rotatably to a creel stand CS and the above filiform elements 1 are respectively pulled out individually from the above numerous bobbins 2. The above filiform element supply means 3, including the tension adjustment mechanism, is arranged to be able to adjust the tension of the filiform elements 1 pulled out from the above bobbin 2 accordingly. In the former step to the composed position P1, the transferring direction of the numerous filiform elements 1 pulled out individually from the above numerous bobbins 2 are controlled such as to transfer mutually in omitted parallel by a traveling direction controlling member TR. The above traveling direction controlling member TR has the numerous insert holes inserted by the numerous filiform elements 1.
The above filiform [0053] element distributing means 4 is an extremely important component according to the present invention. The concrete embodiment of the above filiform element distributing means 4 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 1 and FIGS. 11˜15. The above filiform element distributing means 4 basically comprises numerous rotors 6 and a filiform element transfer means 7. The above rotor 6 is supported rotatably in the state of holding each other respectively by an interlocking means 8 in a chassis BU.
As shown in FIG. 14 or FIG. 15, the [0054] above rotor 6 is arranged to have at least three filiform element receiving grooves 9 (the six filiform element receiving grooves 9 in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15) around it. The above filiform element receiving groove 9 is composed by three grooves at intervals of the angle of 120 degrees in the device composing the 3X composition ST1, and is composed by four grooves at intervals of the angle of 90 degrees in the device composing the 4X composition ST2, and is composed by six grooves at intervals of the angle of 60 degrees in the device composing the 6X-3X composition ST3. The filiform element receiving groove 9 in the rotor 6 for composing the above 3X composition ST1 may be composed by six grooves at intervals of the angle of 60 degrees. In the case, the filiform elements 1 may be applied to support to three grooves of every one groove in six grooves.
The interlocking means [0055] 8 in the above filiform element distributing means 4 is composed by a gear mechanism 10 provided around the above rotor 6, and the concrete embodiment will be shown in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15. FIG. 14 illustrates the rotor 6, which shows the combination example of one unit of said drive means by unitizing the drive means of said rotor 6. FIG. 14A is a schematic front view showing one composition example that the helical gear system is adopted as the drive means, and FIG. 14B is the schematic perspective view. FIG. 15 illustrates the rotor 6, which shows the combination example of one unit of said drive means by unitizing the drive means of said rotor 6. FIG. 15A is a schematic front view showing the composition example that a super gear basis is adopted as the drive means and FIG. 15B is the schematic perspective view.
In the drive means seeing three [0056] rotors 6A, 6B and 6C as one unit, according to the composition example by a helical gear mechanism 14 shown in FIG. 14, a first rotor 6A has a helical gear 14A and a second rotor 6B has a helical gear 14B and a third rotor 6C has a helical gear 14C. According to the example shown in FIG. 14, the first rotor 6A, connecting to the drive source, is the drive rotor rotating counterclockwise, which engages to the helical gear 14B of the second rotor 6B and the helical gear 14C of the third rotor 6C through the helical gear 14A and makes the above second rotor 6B and the third rotor 6C rotate clockwise. The above second rotor 6B and the third rotor 6C are not engaged directly.
Since the gear mechanism is formed sidling along the bus line of the [0057] rotor 6 in the composition example by this helical gear system, the above filiform element receiving groove 9 may be designed as the parallel groove extended along the bus line of the rotor 6. According to this composition example, the transfer of the filiform element is easy as the groove is straight. On the other hand, the work accuracy is required for keeping the gear position (there is an advantage of not generating the hollow as the gear base and the pitch circle diameter may be designed to be accorded).
According to the composition example by a [0058] super gear system 15 shown in FIG. 15, the first rotor 6A has a super gear 15A and the second rotor 6B has a super gear 15B and the third rotor 6C has a super gear 15C. According to the example shown in FIG. 15, the first rotor 6A, connecting to the drive source, is the drive rotor rotating counterclockwise, which engages to the super gear 15B of the second rotor 6B and the super gear 15C of the third rotor 6C through the super gear 15A and makes the above second rotor 6B and the third rotor 6C rotate clockwise. The above second rotor 6B and the third rotor 6C are not engaged directly.
Since the gear mechanism is formed in parallel along the bus line of the [0059] rotor 6 in the composition example by this super gear system, the above filiform receiving groove 9 is required to be designed as the slanting groove slanting along the bus line of the rotor 6. According to this composition example, there is an advantage that the rotor part for maintaining the gear position may cover by slanting the groove.
