APPARATUS FOR CRIMPING GROUPS OF SYNTHETIC FILAMENTS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an apparatus for crimping groups of synthetic filaments, also called tows, which comprises a pair of rollers and a compression compartment provided with a movable, that is, a swivelable plate for holding the material back in the compression compartment and producing an adequate compression force.
When considering all of the elements of the production of synthetic fibers, the crimping devices are the most critical, necessitating very careful and lengthy maintenance. In order to produce a perfectly uniform crimp of the filaments, the device must at all times be absolutely clean and correctly adjusted. For cleaning purposes, the well-known forms of construction of the crimping device have to be dismounted, i.e., the compression compartment must be removed. This dismounting and remounting as well as the subsequent readjustments are very time consuming. This is the reason why the cleaning works are generally delayed as long as possible, even though this results in a somewhat inferior crimping effect. Very often, manufacturers install additional crimping devices in order to be able to dismount and clean the devices in turns.
With the well-known crimping devices it is inevitable that fibers will cling to the machine. This usually happens at the passages between the movable and stationary machine element, i.e., at the passages between the rollers and the top and bottom plates of the crimping compartment and at the edges of the top and bottom and the side plates.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to avoid the prior art disadvantages in crimping textile materials.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a crimping device which produces a uniform crimp and which can be much more easily cleaned and maintained.
Other objects and further scope of applicability of the present invention will become from the detailed description given hereinafter; it should be understood, however, that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
Pursuant to the present invention, the above-mentioned disadvantages may be eliminated and a much improved crimping device can be achieved by supporting the compression compartment and the movable plate to be swivelable, the movable plate being swung out to one side and the compression compartment to the other.
Here it is of advantage to provide the pressure cylinders, e.g., compressed air cylinders, with an appropriate pressure rod system which is connected to the swiveling machine elements. When the machine is set for operation, the compression compartment and the movable plate can be fixed by means of a mechanical quick-action lock, e.g., an eccentric crossbar. However, in this case, too, it is advantageous to use pressure cylinders for fixing the compression compartment and the movable plate in the operating position. These elements are then pressed against buffers by means of a certain amount of pressure force and maintained in the operation position. It is possible to use the pressure cylinders as well as the rod system connected therewith and serving for swinging out the compression compartment and the movable plate, for the adjustment and the fixing of these elements in the operation position, too. An especially sturdy support of the swivelable parts of the compression compartment can be obtained if the swivel axes, i.e., the swing bases of these parts are mounted outside the main bearing axis, i.e., the bearing axis of the pair of rollers. This arrangement permits the reinforcement of the main bearings and the avoidance of any undesired bending of said bearings. An absolutely smooth running of the crimping device is obtained if the top plate of the compression compartment is movable.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the ac companying drawings which are given by way of illustration only and thus are not limitative of the present invention and wherein;
FIG. 1 shows the apparatus of the present invention in operating position; and
FIG. 2 shows the apparatus of FIG. 1 in the cleaning position.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring now to the drawings, the apparatus of the present invention comprises a pair of rollers with a stationary top roller 1 and a swivelable bottom roller 2. By means of these rotating rollers, the groups of synthetic filaments (not shown in the drawing) are pressed into a subsequent compression compartment 3. This compression compartment 3 has a swivelable bottom plate 4 and a top plate 5 which is stationary in operating position and rigidly connected to sideplates 6.
According to the present invention, the movable plate 4 as well as the rest of the compartment, i.e., elements 6 and 5 are supported to be swivelable around an axis 7. Through a system of rods 8, these compartment elements 4, 5, and 6 are connected to compressed air cylinders 9, permitting the elements 4, 5 and 6 to be swung out into a cleaning position as well as to fix these compartment elements 4, 5 and 6 in the operating position.
The bottom roller 2 is supported to be swivelable around an axis 10 and in the operating position it is pressed against the top roller 1 by means of another pressure cylinder II. For cleaning purposes is can be moved downwards, as shown in FIG. 2. Since the movable plate 4 is supported on a traverse 13 on which also the roller 2 is supported, this moving-down action permits the swinging out of element 4 as well as the rest of the compression compartment, i.e., elements 5 and 6. At the sideplates 6 of the compression compartment 3 are provided with lamellas 12 which seal off the compression compartment against the rollers 1 and 2 when being set to operating position.
The axis 7 is supported on sideplates 14 which are in turn swivelable around the axis of the roller 2 so that the movable plate 4, the axis 7 and the sideplates 14 can be moved upwards by means of the pressure cylinder 9 until the bottom plate 4 is in contact with the top plate 5. When operation of the machine begins, these elements are maintained in this position until the compression force is produced. By means of this compression force the moved-up elements are then pressed into the position which is shown in FIG. I.
The invention being thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the invention, and all such modifications as would be apparent to one skilled in the art are intended to be included.
