Description

Die Neuerung betrifft ein gestanztes Strickwerkzeug für Textilmaschinen, insbesondere Strick- und Wirkmaschinen, mit einem Schaft, der wenigstens einen Fuß trägt und zumindest einen mit einem schwingungsdämpfenden Kunststoff gefüllten Freiraum aufweist, dessen Kunststoffüllung mit dem Schaft fest verbunden ist.The innovation relates to a punched knitting tool for textile machines, in particular knitting and knitting machines, with a shaft which carries at least one foot and has at least one space filled with a vibration-damping plastic, the plastic filling of which is firmly connected to the shaft.

Unter Strickwerkzeugen sind dabei Zungennadeln, Spitzennadeln, Schiebernadeln, Nadeln ohne Zungen, Platinen u.dgl. zu verstehen.Among knitting tools there are latch needles, point needles, sliding needles, needles without tongues, sinkers and the like. to understand.

Um die bei zunehmender Strickgeschwindigkeit immer häufig auftretenden Haken- bzw. Kopfbrüche zu vermeiden oder zumindest in ihrer Häufigkeit herabzusetzen und damit die Lebensdauer der Strickwerkzeuge entsprechend zu verlängern, ist es aus der DE-PS 28 20 925 bekannt, Wenigstens einen an den Fuß gekoppelten, leicht biegsamen Steg im Schaft vorzusehen und so die durch die Schloßteile der Maschine in den Fuß eingeleitete Stoßenergie in Biegearbeit umzuwandeln. Dieser schmale Steg weist eine Höhe von höchstens 1,1 mm auf und ist deshalb bei einer Länge von beispielsweise mehr als 8 mm hochelastisch. Zur Erhöhung der Stabilität solcher einen stark gedämpft schwingungsfähigen Schaft aufweisender Strickwerkzeuge ist es aus der DE-OS 30 14 751 bekannt, im Schaft einen weiteren, an den Fuß angekoppelten, leicht biegbaren Steg vorzusehen, der gemeinsam mit dem vorerwähnten oberen Steg und mit von der Schaftoberkante zur Schaftunterkante durchgehenden Führungsteilen zumindest einen Freiraum begrenzt. Alle diese Strickwerkzeuge haben sich in der Praxis hervorragend bewährt.In order to avoid or at least reduce the frequency of hook or head breaks that occur frequently with increasing knitting speed and thus to extend the life of the knitting tools accordingly, it is known from DE-PS 28 20 925, at least one coupled to the foot, to provide a slightly flexible bridge in the shaft and thus to convert the impact energy introduced into the foot by the lock parts of the machine into bending work. This narrow web has a maximum height of 1.1 mm and is therefore highly elastic with a length of more than 8 mm, for example. To increase the stability of such a strongly damped oscillating shaft having knitting tools, it is known from DE-OS 30 14 751 to provide a further, easily bendable web coupled to the foot, which together with the above-mentioned upper web and with the Upper shaft edge to the lower shaft edge continuous guide parts limited at least one free space. All of these knitting tools have proven themselves extremely well in practice.

Aus der DE-PS 33 14 809 ist eine Weiterbildung dieser Strickwerkzeuge in dem Sinne bekannt geworden, daß zumindest ein in dem Schaft vorhandener randseitig geschlossener oder randoffener Freiraum mit einem schwingungsdämpfenden Kunststoff ausgefüllt ist, der mit dem anschließenden Schaft fest verbunden ist. Diese Freiräume sind quer zur Schaftlängsachse gerichtete Durchbrüche oder Ausnehmungen in dem Schaft, die gegebenenfalls randseitig mit Profilierungen etc. ausgebildet sind, um damit eine feste Verankerung der Kunststoffüllung zu gewährleisten. Durch die Kombination zwischen dem Kunststoff und den erwähnten, leicht biegbaren Stegen, die eine Höhe von höchstens 1,1 mm aufweisen, wird, wie sich gezeigt hat, das Schwingungsverhalten der Stege derart günstig beeinflußt, daß sich eine weitere Erhöhung der Strickgeschwindigkeit bei gleichzeitiger Verlängerung der Lebensdauer der Strickwerkzeuge erzielen läßt.From DE-PS 33 14 809, a further development of these knitting tools has become known in the sense that at least one space in the shaft which is closed or open at the edge is filled with a vibration-damping plastic which is firmly connected to the subsequent shaft. These free spaces are openings or recesses in the shaft which are directed transversely to the longitudinal axis of the shaft and which are optionally formed with profilings etc. on the edge side, in order thereby to ensure firm anchoring of the plastic filling. As a result of the combination between the plastic and the aforementioned, easily bendable webs, which have a height of at most 1.1 mm, the vibration behavior of the webs is influenced so favorably that there is a further increase in the knitting speed with simultaneous extension the life of the knitting tools can be achieved.

Wegen der von Breitseite zu Breitseite des Schaftes durchgehenden, den jeweiligen Freiraum bildenden Durchbrüche oder Ausnehmungen kann die Verankerung des den Freiraum ausfüllenden Kunststoffs nur an den Berandungsflächen des jeweiligen Freiraumes erfolgen, die wegen der geringen Dicke des Schaftes notwendigerweise schmal sind. Dieses Problem kann technisch einwandfrei gelöst werden, doch sind dazu gegebenenfalls besondere Maßnahmen hinsichtlich der Randgestaltung erforderlich (vgl. beispielsweise DE-PS 37 06 856).Because of the openings or recesses which form the respective free space and run from wide side to wide side of the shaft, the anchoring of the plastic filling the free space can only take place on the boundary surfaces of the respective free space, which are necessarily narrow due to the small thickness of the shaft. This problem can be solved technically without problems, but this may require special measures with regard to the edge design (see, for example, DE-PS 37 06 856).

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Neuerung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein für hohe Strickgeschwindigkeiten eingerichtetes Strickwerkzeug der eingangs genannten Art weiter in dem Sinne zu verbessern, daß es unter Beibehaltung der geschilderten vorteilhaften Eigenschaften bei der Massenfabrikation einfachere Verhältnisse hinsichtlich der Verankerung des den jeweiligen Freiraum in dem Schaft ausfüllenden Kunststoffs aufweist.Starting from this prior art, the innovation is based on the object of further improving a knitting tool of the type mentioned at the outset, which is set up for high knitting speeds in the sense that it maintains the described advantageous properties in mass production, simpler conditions with regard to the anchoring of the respective free space in the shaft filling plastic.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist das Strickwerkzeug neuerungsgemäß dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Schaft, ausgehend von der Schaftober- und/oder der Schaftunterkante in seiner Längsrichtung zumindest bereichsweise mit wenigstens einer schlitzartigen Vertiefung versehen ist, durch die der mit dem Kunststoff gefüllte Freiraum gebildet ist.To achieve this object, the knitting tool is characterized in accordance with the innovation that the shaft, starting from the upper and / or lower edge of the shaft in its longitudinal direction, is at least partially provided in its longitudinal direction with at least one slit-like depression through which the free space filled with the plastic is formed.

In dieser schlitzartigen Vertiefung findet der Kunststoff an allen Seiten Halt, so daß ohne weiteres eine hervorragende Verankerung an dem metallischen Schaft gewährleistet ist. Die die Freiräume bildenden Vertiefungen können mit entsprechend gestalteten Schlitzfräsern problemlos hergestellt werden. Bei einem einen Vollschaft aufweisenden Strickwerkzeug ist die Vertiefung beidseitig durch relativ dünne Schaftwangen begrenzt, die das Strickwerkzeug elastisch halten, so daß in Verbindung mit dem die Vertiefung ausfüllenden schwingungsdämpfenden Kunststoff die eingangs erläuterten vorteilhaften Eigenschaften, d.h. geringe Haken- bzw. Kopfbruchhäufigkeit und lange Lebensdauer bei hoher Strickgeschwindigkeit erhalten oder sogar noch weiter verbessert werden.The plastic is held on all sides in this slot-like depression, so that an excellent anchoring to the metallic shaft is easily ensured. The depressions forming the free spaces can be designed accordingly Slot cutters can be easily manufactured. In the case of a knitting tool having a full shaft, the depression is delimited on both sides by relatively thin cheek pieces, which hold the knitting tool elastically, so that in conjunction with the vibration-damping plastic filling the depression, the advantageous properties explained at the outset, i.e. low hook or head breakage frequency and long service life maintain high knitting speed or even further improve it.

Der Schaft kann mit Vorteil wenigstens einen, zumindest bereichsweise von der Schaftober- zur Schaftunterkante durchgehenden Freiraum aufweisen, der beispielsweise auf zumindest einer Seite wenigstens einen vor- oder zurückspringenden Bereich hat, so daß sich noch zusätzlich eine formschlüssige Verankerung des Kunststoffmaterials ergibt. Auch ist das Einpressen des Kunststoffs in eine solche durchgehende schlitzartige Vertiefung besonders einfach. Grundsätzlich sind aber auch Ausführungsformen denkbar, bei denen der Schaft wenigstens einen bodenseitig geschlossenen Freiraum aufweist, der dann eben lediglich von seiner Öffnung an der Schaftober- oder der Schaftunterkante aus mit dem Kunststoff befüllt wird.The shaft can advantageously have at least one free space, at least in some areas continuous from the upper edge of the shaft to the lower edge, which has, for example, at least one projecting or recessed area on at least one side, so that there is additionally a positive anchoring of the plastic material. Pressing the plastic into such a continuous slot-like depression is also particularly simple. In principle, however, embodiments are also conceivable in which the shaft has at least one free space which is closed on the bottom and which is then only filled with the plastic from its opening on the upper or lower edge of the shaft.

Bei einem Strickwerkzeug, dessen Schaft wenigstens zwei von der Schaftoberkante zur Schaftunterkante durchgehende Führungsteile aufweist, die durch schmale Stege miteinander verbunden sind, durch die gemeinsam mit den Führungsteilen ein mit dem Kunststoff gefüllter Freiraum begrenzt ist, ist neuerungsgemäß die Anordung mit Vorteil derart getroffen, daß eine schlitzartige Vertiefung der beschriebenen Art im Bereiche wenigstens eines Steges angeordnet ist, dessen so gebildeter Freiraum ebenfalls mit Kunststoff gefüllt ist.In the case of a knitting tool, the shaft of which has at least two guide parts which are continuous from the upper edge of the shaft to the lower edge of the shaft and which are connected to one another by narrow webs which, together with the guide parts, define a space filled with the plastic, the arrangement is advantageously made such that a slot-like depression of the type described is arranged in the area of at least one web, the free space thus formed is also filled with plastic.

Die Höhe des Steges kann von den Schaftabmessungen unter Berücksichtigung des zu erzielenden gedämpften Schwingungsverhaltens abhängig sein; sie beträgt bei den bevorzugten Ausführungsformen jedoch höchstens 1,1 mm.The height of the web can depend on the shaft dimensions, taking into account the damped vibration behavior to be achieved; however, in the preferred embodiments it is at most 1.1 mm.

Von dem in den Fig. 1 und 5 in zwei verschiedenen Ausführungsformen dargestellten, aus einem Stahlband ausgestanzten Strickwerkzeug ist lediglich der Schaft 1 veranschaulicht, der bei beiden Ausführungsformen jeweils einen angeformten Fuß 2 trägt. Das Strickwerkzeug ist beispielsweise eine Zungennadel, deren (nicht dargestellter) Hals- und Kopfteil in an sich bekannter Weise ausgebildet ist.Of the knitting tool shown in FIGS. 1 and 5 in two different embodiments and punched out of a steel band, only the shaft 1 is illustrated, which in each case carries a molded foot 2 in both embodiments. The knitting tool is, for example, a latch needle, the neck and head part (not shown) of which is formed in a manner known per se.

Bei der ersten Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 1 bis 4 ist der Schaft 1 als sogenannter Vollschaft ausgeführt. Er ist in dem Bereich vor dem Fuß 2 mit wenigstens einer in Schaftlängsrichtung sich erstreckenden schlitzartigen Vertiefungen 3 versehen, die auf den aus Fig. 1 ersichtlichen Schaftbereich beschränkt ist. Die schlitzartige Vertiefung 3 geht von der Schaftoberkante 4 bis zu der Schaftunterkante (Schaftrücken) 5 durch; sie ist symmetrisch zu der in Fig. 2 bei 6 angedeuteten Längsmittelebene des Schaftes 1 angeordnet und wurde, wie die Fig. 1, 3 erkennen lassen, mit geeigneten Schlitzfräsern, ausgehend von der Schaftoberkante 4 und der Schaftunterkante 5, eingefräst. Aus diesem Grunde ist die schlitzartige Vertiefung 3 an ihren beiden Stirnseiten durch zwickelartige Materialvorsprünge 7 begrenzt, die in den von der Vertiefung 3 in dem Schaft 1 ausgebildeten Freiraum ragen.In the first embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4, the shaft 1 is designed as a so-called full shaft. It is provided in the area in front of the foot 2 with at least one slot-like recesses 3 which extend in the longitudinal direction of the shaft and which is limited to the area of the shaft shown in FIG. 1. The slot-like depression 3 extends from the upper edge 4 of the shaft to the lower edge (back of the shaft) 5; it is arranged symmetrically to the longitudinal center plane of the shaft 1 indicated at 6 in FIG. 2 and, as can be seen in FIGS. 1, 3, was milled in with suitable slot cutters, starting from the upper shaft edge 4 and the lower shaft edge 5. For this reason, the slot-like depression 3 is delimited on its two end faces by gusset-like material projections 7 which protrude into the free space formed by the depression 3 in the shaft 1.

Dieser Freiraum ist mit einem in Fig. 3, 4 mit 8 bezeichneten Kunststoffmaterial vollständig ausgefüllt, das eben mit der Schaftoberkante 4 und der Schaftunterkante 5 abschließt und das mit dem den Freiraum begrenzenden Schaftmaterial fest verbunden ist. Die den von der schlitzartigen Vertiefung 3 gebildeten Freiraum breitseitig begrenzenden stehengebliebenen Schaftwangen 9 sind verhältnismäßig dünn, so daß sich eine hohe elastische Biegsamkeit des Schaftes 1 ergibt, die durch das den Freiraum ausfüllende Kunststoffmaterial 8 gedämpft ist.This free space is completely filled with a plastic material designated 8 in FIGS. 3, 4, which just ends with the upper edge 4 of the shaft and the lower edge 5 of the shaft and which is firmly connected to the upper material delimiting the free space. The remaining cheek pieces 9 which delimit the free space formed by the slot-like depression 3 on the broad side are relatively thin, so that there is a high elastic flexibility of the shaft 1, which is damped by the plastic material 8 filling the free space.

In den Fig. 1, 3 ist lediglich eine schlitzartige Vertiefung 3 dargestellt. Es sind Ausführungsformen denkbar, bei denen mehrere solcher Vertiefungen 3 vorgesehen sind, die auch vor und hinter dem Fuß angeordnet sein können. Auch kann es in bestimmten Fällen zweckmäßig sein, die schlitzartige Vertiefung 3 nicht von der Schaftoberkante 4 bis zur Schaftunterkante 5 durchzuführen, sondern sie,ausgehend von der Schaftoberkante 4 bzw. der Schaftunterkante 5, nur bis zu einer bestimmten Tiefe, die kleiner als die Schafthöhe ist, reichen zu lassen, derart, daß die schlitzartige Vertiefung 3 einen bodenseitig geschlossenen Freiraum bildet, der mit dem Kunststoff 8 oder 80 ausgefüllt ist.1, 3, only a slot-like depression 3 is shown. Embodiments are conceivable in which several such depressions 3 are provided, which can also be arranged in front of and behind the foot. In certain cases, it may also be expedient not to carry out the slot-like depression 3 from the upper shaft edge 4 to the lower shaft edge 5, but instead, starting from the upper shaft edge 4 or the lower shaft edge 5, only to a certain depth which is less than the shaft height is to be enough, such that the slot-like recess 3 forms a closed space on the bottom, which is filled with the plastic 8 or 80.

Bei der zweiten Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 5 bis 8 weist der Schaft 1 von der Schaftoberkante 4 bis zur Schaftunterkante 5 durchgehende Führungsteile 10, 11, 12 auf, die jeweils durch zwei parallele, einander gegenüberliegende schmale Stege 13, 14 miteinander verbunden sind, von denen die Stege 13 an der Schaftoberkante 4 und die Stege 14 an der Schaftunterkante 5 liegen.In the second embodiment according to FIGS. 5 to 8, the shaft 1 has continuous guide parts 10, 11, 12 from the upper shaft edge 4 to the lower shaft edge 5, each of which is connected to one another by two parallel, opposing narrow webs 13, 14 from which are the webs 13 on the upper edge 4 and the webs 14 on the lower edge 5.

Die Stege 13, 14, deren Höhe vorzugsweise höchstens 1,1 mm beträgt und die in der Regel länger als 8 mm sind, begrenzen gemeinsam mit den Führungsteilen 10, 11 bzw. 10, 12 jeweils einen länglichen Durchbruch 15 bzw. 16, der randseitig geschlossen und mit Kunststoff 80 gefüllt ist. Der Kunststoff 80 ist randseitig mit der Berandung des Durchbruches 15 bzw. 16 fest verbunden; er füllt den von dem Durchbruch gebildeten Freiraum vollständig aus.The webs 13, 14, the height of which is preferably at most 1.1 mm and which are generally longer than 8 mm, together with the guide parts 10, 11 and 10, 12 each delimit an elongated opening 15 and 16 on the edge side closed and filled with plastic 80. The plastic 80 is firmly connected on the edge to the edge of the opening 15 or 16; it fills the one from the breakthrough formed free space completely.

Bei dieser Ausführungsform sind im Bereiche der beiden Durchbrüche 15, 16 zwei schlitzartige Vertiefungen 30 in dem Schaft 1 ausgebildet, die sich ebenfalls in Schaftlängsrichtung erstrecken und symmetrisch zu der Längsmittelebene 6 (Fig. 6) des Schaftes angeordnet sind. Die beiden schlitzartigen Vertiefungen 30 durchdringen die oberen Stege 13 und verlaufen durch die unteren Stege 14, ohne daß sie im Bereiche der Schaftunterkante 5 aus dem Schaft 1 austreten. Ihr Umriß ist in Fig. 5 gestrichelt angedeutet und in seiner genauen Formgebung aus Fig. 7 zu ersehen. Die schlitzartigen Vertiefungen 30 sind wiederum mit dem Kunststoff 80 gefüllt, der in die Kunststoffüllung der Durchbrüche 15, 16 übergeht. Wie aus Fig. 7 hervorgeht, sind die schlitzartigen Vertiefungen stirnseitig wieder profiliert, derart, daß in den von den Vertiefungen 30 jeweils gebildeten Freiraum vorragende zwickelartige Bereiche7 und hinterschnittene Bereiche 17 vorhanden sind, die eine formschlüssige Verankerung der gesamten Kunststoffüllung bewirken.In this embodiment, two slot-like depressions 30 are formed in the shaft 1 in the region of the two openings 15, 16, which also extend in the longitudinal direction of the shaft and are arranged symmetrically to the longitudinal center plane 6 (FIG. 6) of the shaft. The two slot-like depressions 30 penetrate the upper webs 13 and run through the lower webs 14 without them emerging from the shaft 1 in the region of the lower shaft edge 5. Their outline is indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 5 and can be seen in its precise shape from FIG. 7. The slot-like depressions 30 are in turn filled with the plastic 80, which merges into the plastic filling of the openings 15, 16. As can be seen from FIG. 7, the slot-like depressions are profiled on the end face again in such a way that protruding gusset-like areas 7 and undercut areas 17 are present in the free space formed in each case by the depressions 30, which bring about a positive anchoring of the entire plastic filling.

Alternativ könnte wenigstens eine der schlitzartigen Vertiefungen 30 sich auch durch den unteren Steg 14 erstrecken und damit im Bereiche der Schaftunterkante 5 öffnen. Jede der schlitzartigen Vertiefungen 30 erstreckt sich im wesentlichen über die gesamte Länge des von ihr durchdrungenen Steges 13. Sie ist mit einem Schlitzfräser in den Schaft 1 eingefräst und damit zumindest teilweise im Bereich ihrer seitlichen Berandung kreisförmig gekrümmt.Alternatively, at least one of the slot-like depressions 30 could also extend through the lower web 14 and thus open in the region of the lower shaft edge 5. Each of the slot-like depressions 30 extends essentially over the entire length of the web 13 penetrated by it. It is milled into the shaft 1 with a slot cutter and thus at least partially curved in a circular manner in the region of its lateral edges.

Eine typische Schaftdicke für die beschriebenen Strickwerkzeuge beträgt ca. 0,4 mm. Die Breite der schlitzartigen Vertiefung 3 bzw. 30 liegt jeweils bei ca. einem Drittel der Schaftdicke, wenngleich naturgemäß auch andere Breiten-/Dickenverhältnisse denkbar sind. Als Kunststoff für die Kunststoffüllung 8 bzw. 80 kommt insbesondere ein Polyamid in Frage.A typical shaft thickness for the knitting tools described is approximately 0.4 mm. The width of the slot-like recess 3 or 30 is in each case approximately one third of the shaft thickness, although naturally other width / thickness ratios are also conceivable. A polyamide is particularly suitable as the plastic for the plastic filling 8 or 80.
