Abstract
At the outlet end (B) of a tentering frame (1), on the side of the tentering frame chains with needle plates (3) there are transport means (11) in the shape of conveyor belts (19) and clamping bands (23), whose runs (19′, 23′) intersect the plane (E) formed by the tentering frame chains (3) at an acute angle (alpha) at a point (X). The needles are removed from the fabric web (39) which is guided in a clamped way during the needle removal by the conveyor belts (19) and clamping bands (23).
Description
- The object of the invention is a device for removing needles from a fabric web carried on a tentering frame, with two tentering frame chains, which carry the fabric web by its longitudinal edges and which transport and hold the fabric web in tension perpendicular to a transport direction between a web receiving point and a web outlet point.
- For processing textile webs, especially knitted, double-ribbed, as well as stitched textiles, and also for nonwoven fabrics, the fabric web is fixed along its longitudinal edges by needles on a tentering frame. At the end of the tentering frame, the fabric web must be removed as carefully as possible from the needle setting, which is typically embodied on circular transport bands. The removal can be achieved by wedge-shaped rails, which lie at an acute angle to the fabric web, which extend parallel to the needled bands, and which successively lift the fabric web from the needle setting. In a tentering frame at the end of the run of the material web, because the latter is usually held in tension between the needles, removing the needles can damage the edges of the material web, as soon as the web is no longer completely held by the penetrating needles.
- An object of the present invention is to create a device for removing needles from a fabric web, in which the fabric web is not damaged by the needles when the needles are removed.
- This objective is achieved by a device according to the features of the invention, in which at the web outlet point at the side of the tentering frame chains there is at least one conveyor belt having a first segment intersects the transport plane of the tentering frame chains at an angle.
- With the device according to the invention, the fabric web is held in a controlled way during the needle removal and, as much as desired, also afterwards. The tensile forces acting from the fabric web perpendicular to the transport direction can be temporarily assumed by the device during the needle removal. The device further enables a controlled transition to the subsequent transport means, whether it is a transport belt running at the same speed or a transport belt at a lower speed in order to flatten the fabric web and to give the web the opportunity to shrink (relax).
- The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to an illustrated embodiment. Shown are:
-
FIG. 1 is a view of a tentering frame with diverging needled bands, -
FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section view along line II-II inFIG. 1 through the device, and -
FIG. 3 is an enlarged cut-out of the longitudinal section inFIG. 2 in the transfer/transition region. - In
FIG. 1 , illustrated by a trapezoid, atentering frame 1 with two tentering frame chains withneedle plates 3 designed for the web transport can be seen. The tentering frame chains withneedle plates 3 run endlessly aroundguide rollers guide rollers frame chains 3 are supported onsliding surfaces 9. The two tenteringframe chains 3 diverge in the illustrated example. Consequently, on the inlet side at the web receiving point A, the two tenteringframe chains 3 lie closer to each other than at the web outlet point B. The formation of thetentering frame 1, as shown schematically in the drawings, is not described in more detail, as it is known from the state of the art. - In the region of the web outlet point B, corresponding transport means 11 are arranged between the two
tentering frame chains 3 directly adjacent to each chain. The two transport means 11 can be arranged parallel to the adjacenttentering frame chains 3 or they can enclose an acute angle beta with these chains. The transport means are preferably endless conveyor belts orpulleys 19 rotating around at least twoguide rollers deflection roller 17, which divides the upper run of theconveyor belt 19 rotating on theguide rollers segments 19′ and 19″, is preferably inserted between the twoguide rollers lower run 19′″ can likewise be deflected upwards by asupport roller 21 as much as necessary for structural reasons. Theconveyor belts 19 can be driven by a motor (not shown), preferably a servo motor. Anendless clamping band 23 runs over eachconveyor belt 19 over at least twoguide rollers 25, 27. Theirlower runs 23′ contact both thesegment 19′ and also thesegment 19″ and in this way they are deflected. Theupper run 23′ can be lifted by adeflection roller 29, if necessary. - Alternatively, at the point where conveyor belts are deflected by deflection rollers, conveyor belts, which are offset relative to each other and which have a segment that assumes the desired angle, can be used.
- At the position x, the
upper run 19′ of thetransport belt 19 intersects the plane E, in which the upper segments of thetentering frame chains 3 run at an acute angle alpha in the illustrated example. The intersecting angle between the plane E and theupper run 19′ can equal up to 90°. - The transport means 11, including the
transport belt 19 and theclamping belt 23, extend past the web transfer region A and also extend past aconveyor system 33 cooperating with the tenteringframe 1. This system can be a band, lattice, orscreen 37, which extends around theguide rollers 35 and on which afabric web 39 passing through the tenteringframe 1 is carried away. - In the following, the method of operation of the device is explained in more detail. In the figures, the
fabric web 39 is guided from the left in a known way to thetentering frame 1 and connected to thetentering frame chains 3 along its edges. Thematerial web 39 in the example of adivergent tentering frame 1 is successively pulled apart perpendicular to the transport direction T by the twotentering frame chains 3, which are driven in sync. Shortly before reaching the web outlet point B, the edge regions of thefabric web 39 are brought into contact with thetransport bands 19 of the transport means 11. Due to thesegment 19′ of thetransport bands 19 running upwards at the acute angle alpha, the edges of thefabric web 39 are successively lifted and led out of the needles of thetentering frame chains 3 and thus the connection to theneedle bands 3 is broken. During the run-out of the web edges, thefabric web 39 is pressed by thelower run 23′ of theclamping band 23 to thesegment 19′ of thetransport band 19 and thus held or clamped tight. The clamping of thefabric web 39 during the needle removal cancels the tensile forces, which have been generated by the expansion of thefabric web 39 in thetentering frame 1 and prevents the needles from pulling threads out of the surface of the lower side of thefabric web 39. - The guidance of the
conveyor belts 19 andclamping bands 23 at an acute angle beta to the transport direction of thetentering frame chains 3 has proven to be especially advantageous. Through these measures, thefabric web 39 is stretched further perpendicular to the transport direction T by the mentioned bands during the needle removal and thus the tensile forces on the needles at the tenteringframe chains 3 are completely canceled. - The controlled needle removal of the
web 39 from the tenteringframe 1 enables the releasedweb 39 to be deposited on asubsequent conveyor system 33, whose conveyor speed v2, e.g., can be less than the conveyor speed v1 of the tenteringframe chains 3 in order to give thematerial web 39 the opportunity to shrink/relax. The conveyor speed of theconveyor band 19 and theclamping band 23 can likewise be different with reference to the speed v1 of the tenteringframe chains 3 in order to aid the needle removal.
