Comber for cotton fiber based on new parallel combing concept

The traditional plate type comber ″ single″ centralized mode hinders the further significant increase of the carding speed. This paper introduced the assembly line ″station″ parallel working mode concept,presented a new parallel combing concept,and designed a unit type servo motor drive prototype comber based on the principle. The cotton feed roller,the top comb and the output roller member are disposed in the cylinder circumference of different parts,eliminating the traditional comber' s complex reciprocating and inverting and intermittent motion mechanism. Several groups of nipper rotating with the cylinder clamped the fiber bundles in turn,carried out such actions as combing from the head to the end of fiber bundles,seperation and web forming and performed parallel combing in accordance with different types of fiber bundle,thus eliminating the the stringent requirements of the traditional comber such as all process actions being confined in a narrow area,aiming at the same fiber bundle,and precisely coordinating the space location and time. It is expected to make a breakthrough in the traditional comber speed,and realize compliant combing at high nipper speed.
