Definitions

  • the invention relates to a carding machine with an inlet side for fiber flakes, which are supplied by means of rolling a rotating drum and dissolved between Festkardier instituten and rotating flat bars and the drum to single fiber, aligned and cleaned, and the resulting batt from the drum to a customer is passed, which is arranged downstream of at least one deduction unit for further processing or storage of the batt.
  • the object of the invention is the development of a carding machine on the outlet side for improved removal of the batt.
  • the carding machine comprises an inlet side for fiber flakes, which are fed by means of rolling a rotating drum, wherein the fiber flakes between Festkardierianan and rotating flat bars and the drum are dissolved, aligned and cleaned to single fiber, and the resulting batt is passed from the drum to a customer, which is arranged downstream of at least one deduction unit for further processing or storage of the batt.
  • the invention is characterized in that the withdrawal unit is designed as at least one conveyor belt, which discharges the batt directly from the customer, wherein the transfer of the batt is supported by the customer on the at least one conveyor belt by a suction.
  • the invention is based on the recognition that, as a result of a decrease in the fiber web directly from the pickup, at least one less warp is drawn through at least one conveyor belt of the fiber web than in the prior art.
  • the take-off speed can be increased up to 600 m / min.
  • the absence of the wiping and squeezing rollers shortens the space of the card and makes them less susceptible to interference, since in the area of wiping and squeezing often the fiber material jams, resulting in production disruption.
  • the support of the transfer of the batt from the customer to the conveyor by a suction train ensures an almost complete transfer of all fibers.
  • the induced draft can be generated by applying a negative pressure, or by an air flow, the resulting force supports the detachment of the batt from the customer or holds the batt or the resulting sliver on the conveyor belt.
  • the at least one conveyor belt is arranged drivable transversely to the direction of rotation of the pickup. This can be deducted depending on the embodiment of the batt laterally or transversely to the direction of the card, or optionally in the direction of the card when using two conveyor belts, which are operated in opposite directions. This is in particular a shortening of the installation space of the card connected.
  • the at least one conveyor belt has a perforation.
  • the induced draft thus acts directly on the batt, which is thus held flat on the conveyor belt. Since the batt in the transfer of the customer on the conveyor belt must be pulled out of the bent teeth of the customer or lifted out partially, the induced draft supports the transfer of the batt.
  • the at least one conveyor belt is designed as an endless circulating conveyor belt whose load space at the narrowest point at a distance from the customer of 0.5 to 5 mm, preferably 0.5 to 2 mm, over at least the entire working width of Extractor extends and compacts the batt into a sliver. It has been found that the adhesion of the conveyor belt to the batt acts well on this small distance between the conveyor belt and the customer, but on the other hand, the induced draft also has a particularly efficient effect.
  • At least one suction device for generating the induced draft is arranged within the at least one conveyor belt.
  • the at least one suction opening of the suction is aligned with the load strand.
  • a negative pressure is preferably generated which is between 0.05 to 0.3 bar.
  • the suction can thus be coupled to the air duct system of the card so that it can be dispensed with its own fan.
  • the conveyor belt extends over at least the entire working width of the pickup, so that the batt is removed laterally from the pickup. This results in a very short construction for the card, since all other elements for the acquisition of the sliver can be arranged laterally.

  • the previous machine configuration with an integrated drafting system and subsequent can storage can be maintained without sacrificing the advantage of the shortened overall length.
  • At least one cleaning roller is arranged in contact with the pickup in the area of the at least one conveyor belt and rotates counter to the pickup.
