Abstract

Abstract The control member herein described comprises an electromagnet 30 which is fixed with respect to a thread guide rail and acts on a swinging arm 37 l pivoted with respect to the electromagnet itself and slidably engaging a lifter 14. Due to the energization of the electromagnet 30 the swinging arm 37, is brought, against the action of a return spring 39, from a rest position in which the lifter is disposed in a disengagement condition, to a working position in which the lifter is in an engagement condition and is engaged by actuator means oscillating in synchronism with the thread guide rail in order to cause the actuation of a threading tube associated with said lifter.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 170 words
A control member for threading tube lifters in crochet galloon looms, comprising an electromagnet which is fixed with respect to a thread guide rail and associated with at least a lifter oscillatably engaged in relation to said thread guide rail, said electromagnet being energizable to bring the lifter from a disengagement condition in which the latter keeps a fixed positioning with respect to the thread guide rail, to an engagement condition in which it can be engaged by actuator means giving it an oscillating motion in synchronism with the oscillating motions performed by the thread guide rail wherein said control member further comprises a swing arm rotatably pivoted with respect to said electromagnet and provided with a guide element slidably engaging said lifter, said swinging arm being translatable, due to the energization of said electromagnet and against the action of at least a return spring, from a rest position corresponding to the disengagement condition of the lifter to a working position in which the lifter is in its engagement condition.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 170 words
A control member for threading tube lifters in crochet galloon looms, comprising an electromagnet which is fixed with respect to a thread guide rail and associated with at least a lifter oscillatably engaged in relation to said thread guide rail, said electromagnet being energizable to bring the lifter from a disengagement condition in which the latter keeps a fixed positioning with respect to the thread guide rail, to an engagement condition in which it can be engaged by actuator means giving it an oscillating motion in synchronism with the oscillating motions performed by the thread guide rail wherein said control member further comprises a swing arm rotatably pivoted with respect to said electromagnet and provided with a guide element slidably engaging said lifter, said swinging arm being translatable, due to the energization of said electromagnet and against the action of at least a return spring, from a rest position corresponding to the disengagement condition of the lifter to a working position in which the lifter is in its engagement condition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
The control member as claimed in claim 1, wherein said swing arm is pivoted on a fastening plate fixedly supporting the electromagnet and fixedly connected to the thread guide rail.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 32 words
The control member as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a guide element secured to the swinging arm and provided with at least a hole through which said lifter is slidably guided.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 52 words
The control member as claimed in claim 1, wherein the positioning of the swinging arm in its rest position is given by a stop pin fastened to the swinging arm and acting in abutment against one end of a slot formed in a block which is fixed with respect to the electromagnet.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
The control member as claimed in claim 1, wherein said return spring is accommodated in a housing formed in said block.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 21 words
The control member as claimed in claim 2, wherein said return spring is accommodated in a housing formed in said block.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 21 words
The control member as claimed in claim 3, wherein said return spring is accommodated in a housing formed in said block.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
The control member as claimed in claim 4, wherein said return spring is accommodated in a housing formed in said block.
