At the same time some existing shortpoints of the mechanism are also pointed out.展开更多

According to the special requirements on rapier loom's weft-insertion system for weaving three-dimensional( 3-D) fabric,a new rapier electronic weft-insertion system is presented. The design principle for 3-D loom's weft insertion system is introduced,including the design of the motion law of electronic weft-insertion system,the driving system's hardware configure,and its software's controlling principle. The weft insertion system is computer-controlled and servocylinder driven so as to control the rapier's movement to insert the weft into the multi-shed while 3-D weaving. This method greatly simplifies the weft-insertion system,achieves weft-insertion with variable travel,and improves the flexibility and reliability. The weft insertion system has been applied in a 3-D loom successfully.展开更多

A reverse design and simulation software was compiled based on Visual Basic 6.0 to obtain the mechanism parameters, including the pitch curves and tooth profiles of the non-circular gears. A test-bed of this mechanism was developed according to these parameters. The kinematic performance of this weft insertion mechanism was tested by high-speed video tape recorder with its corresponding video analytical software Blaster's MAS. And the test results were identical with the theoretical calculation. Compared with the conjugate cam weft insertion mechanism which is applied on TT96 rapier loom, under the condition of same weft insertion rate, the variation of acceleration of this mechanism is smaller. This novel weft insertion mechanism can meet the requirements of weft insertion on rapier looms with smooth and steady motion.展开更多
