Title of Invention | BALE PLUCKER WITH LARGE RUBBER TYRES RUNNING DIRECTLY ON THE FLOOR OF THE SPINNING MILL AND GUIDED WITH SLIDING BLOCKS |
---|---|
Abstract | Bale plucker having inexpensive construction runs on large rubber tyres (1) without rails and is guided by the air channel or a guide profile. The bale plucker is guided by two guide rolls (7) each arranged on the left and right of the channel. A steel profile is fixed to the floor approximately parallel to the extraction channel, guides the bale plucker by means of lateral rolls or sliding blocks. |
Full Text | Field of Invention The invention relates to Bale pluckers used in the fibre processing industry. More particularly, the invention relates to provide a very much less expensive system for moving along the bales. Background of the Invention Bale pluckers, which run up and down on two parallel rails and, by means of a milling head with at least one rotating roll, work off flocks from bales placed along the rails, have been used in the fibre- processing industry since 1978. The flocks worked off by the rolls are continuously plucked. The fibres are sucked to the next processing stage through a covered suction channel, which is arranged between the rails. The bale plucker runs over the rails on cast steel wheels with flanges. This construction is used world-wide, but is very expensive. The tracks, which are up to 50 m in length, are very heavy and very bulky. The fabrication of the rails in the steelworks comprises the following steps: straightening, possibly surface milling, welding of fishplates, boring for attachment, painting, packing. This makes them not only expensive, but also expensive for shipment to customers who are predominantly overseas. The rails must be installed very straight, exactly parallel on a level and then back-filled. This very labour-intensive method takes approximately one week and represents the longest time in the installation process. Fibres drop onto low rails during operation. These fibres on the rails stop production and must be removed by hand. If the rails become worn out, a substantial expense is required to replace these. Object of the Invention The object of the invention is to provide a very much less expensive system for moving along the bales. Brief description of the accompanying drawings The invention can be described in detail with the help of the figures in accompanying drawings, where Figure 1 shows a side view of the bale plucker. Figure 2 shows the guidance of the bale plucker. Detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the Invention According to the invention this object is achieved by using large rubber tyres, which run directly on the floor of the spinning mill. It is advantageous to select an unusually large diameter so that as a result dropping cotton flocks do not become an obstacle and inexpensive tyres from the motor car industry can be used. It is important to guide the machine parallel to the air extraction channel. This can happen as a result of a steel angle or profile being laid exactly parallel to the air channel and by guiding the bale plucker at two points (in the front and rear region) with small guiding or sliding blocks. It is more economic to fabricate the extraction channel from thinner sheet metal than is usual at the present time, 1 mm steel sheet for example, and to have lateral concrete reinforcement cast in situ, which at the same time serves as a guide for the bale plucker. The bale plucker is guided by two rolls each arranged on the left and right of the channel. In order to achieve as much tolerance as possible for the levelness and straightness of the air channel, it is advantageous if the guide of the cover apron is not rigidly connected to the bale plucker but automatically adapts to the channel. This happens as a result of the pressing roll for the cover apron resting on the rubber apron and the inlet of the bale plucker extraction into the channel being attached to the remaining bale plucker in a movable way. Fig. 1 shows a side view of the bale plucker. The bale plucker runs on large tyres 1) directly on the floor. From the milling head 2) with the plucker rolls 3) the flocks are sucked via a suction hose 4) into the channel 5). A cover apron 6) covers the channel and is steered by a mobile roll 9) onto the channel. Fig. 2 shows the guidance of the bale plucker. Guide rolls 7) are supported on the channel 5). The channel is laterally stabilized with concrete 8). I Claim 1. Bale plucker with large rubber tyres (1) running directly on the floor of the spinning mill and guided with sliding blocks, the said Bale plucker comprising: a bale plucker for working off textile fibre bales placed in at least one row, characterized in that, the bale plucker rides on at least four synthetic tyres running along the hall floor and is guided parallel to an extraction channel by a guiding system, on which the bale plucker is not supported vertically wherein a steel profile, which is fixed to the floor approximately parallel to the extraction channel, guides the bale plucker by means of lateral rolls or sliding blocks. 2. Bale plucker as claimed in claim 1, wherein sections of the extraction channel act as guidance for the bale plucker. 3. Bale plucker as claimed in claim 1 and 2, wherein the intersection of the plucker extraction can be moved in the extraction channel opposite the bale plucker with a tolerance of at least ±10 mm. 4. Bale plucker as claimed in claim 1 to 3, wherein the wheels consist of solid rubber or are provided with a filling of gas or air and have a diameter of at least 320 mm. ABSTRACT BALE PLUCKER WITH LARGE RUBBER TYRES RUNNING DIRECTLY ON THE FLOOR OF THE SPINNING MILL AND GUIDED WITH SLIDING BLOCKS Bale plucker having inexpensive construction runs on large rubber tyres (1) without rails and is guided by the air channel or a guide profile. The bale plucker is guided by two guide rolls (7) each arranged on the left and right of the channel.
