Abstract

Abstract A detector wherein detecting element is opposed to the peripheral side of a drum so that a magnetic or optical variation may be given whenever a screw fixing the shaft of said drum passes and that therefore the rotation may be accurately detected without detecting the number of revolutions of each drum or attaching any additional element as in the conventional technique.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A rotation detector in a fixed length yarn winding apparatus comprising a drum engaging a bobbin for winding up yarn, a shaft through said drum rotatable therewith, a screw extending in the radial direction into said drum to fix the shaft to said drum and a detecting element adjacent to the peripheral side of said drum, said detecting element sensing the screw and producing signal pulses whenever the head part of said screw passes.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
A rotation detector in a fixed length yarn winding apparatus comprising a drum engaging a bobbin for winding up yarn, a shaft through said drum rotatable therewith, a screw extending in the radial direction into said drum to fix the shaft to said drum and a detecting element adjacent to the peripheral side of said drum, said detecting element sensing the screw and producing signal pulses whenever the head part of said screw passes.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A detector according to claim 1 wherein said detecting element comprises a pick-up coil connected with a wound yarn stopping means through a frequency divider.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 13 words
A detector according to claim 2 wherein said stopping means is a cutter.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
A detector according to claim 2 wherein said stopping means is a controlling device operating to move a roll connecting said drum with a driving means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 37 words
A detector according to claim 2 wherein said screw is formed of a magnetic material, said coil is provided with a U-shaped magnetic core aNd a permanent magnet is inserted in a part of said magnetic core.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
A detector according to claim 1 wherein a light reflecting layer is formed at least in the head part of said screw and said detecting element comprises a light source, prism and photoelectric converting means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
A detector according to claim 6 wherein said light source is a luminous diode and said photoelectric converting means is a phototransistor.
