Description

The present invention is a pile loom, and in particular, pile forming information including the number of weaving cycles in one pile forming cycle is driven by driving means independent of the main drive motor of the loom according to the pile weaving pattern set for each weaving step. The pile weaving pattern used for the pile loom is created on the premise of a pile loom that changes the relative position between the punching position of the kite and the woven cloth before weaving. And an apparatus for editing.

The “one pile forming cycle” referred to in the present invention is a unit weaving cycle for forming a pile, and more specifically, from a plurality of weaving cycles performed to form one pile. It consists of. For example, when one pile is formed by wefting and punching three wefts, one pile forming cycle at that time is three weaving cycles. In addition, the “weaving step” in the present invention described above is a stage in which the weaving cycle proceeds in one repeat of the weaving structure, and the step No. (number) is what number stage (what number weaving cycle). ). Therefore, 1 step = 1 weaving cycle.

Further, the “pile weaving pattern” in the present invention described above means that pile forming information including at least the number of weaving cycles in the one pile forming cycle (hereinafter referred to as “pile pick number”) is included in each weaving step. The one set for one repeat of the woven structure. The “pile formation information” includes at least the number of pile picks as information as described above. For example, when the number of pile picks is 3 picks (3 weaving cycles), the numerical value “3” Is pile formation information. In addition to the number of pile picks described above, the number of loose picks (weft insertion operation in which the wefts are beaten at a position away from the weaving of the woven fabric) and the first pick (the weft yarns together with the loose pick wefts) In some cases, the pile formation information includes the number of weft insertion operations) and the relative position between the scissor striking position and the woven cloth before weaving.

As one of the above-described pile looms, there is a cloth movement type pile loom that forms a pile by displacing the front of the weaving with respect to a fixed hammering position (for example, Patent Document 1). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, the cloth moving pile loom 1 includes a pile warp beam 2 (upper side in the drawing) in which a large number of pile warps PT are wound in a sheet shape, and a large number of ground warps. A warp beam 3 (lower side in the drawing) for ground warp in which GT is wound in a sheet shape.

The pile warp PT is fed out from the warp beam 2 and is wound around the guide rolls 6 and 6 and the pile warp tension roll 7 provided on the downstream side thereof. After that, it is guided to the CF before the woven fabric W. The ground warp GT is fed out from the warp beam 3 and is then wound around the outer periphery of a ground warp tension roll 15 serving as a terry motion member on the sending side which is a pile forming element. Similar to PT, it is guided to the CF before passing through the heald 8 and the heel 5. Further, the pile woven fabric W formed by the pile warp PT and the ground warp GT together with the weft inserted (not shown) is guided to a cloth guide roll 16 as a terry motion member on the winding side which is a pile forming element. After being wound, it is finally wound on the cloth winding roll 4 through the clothing roll 11 and the guide rolls 12 and 13.

The weft thread inserted into the opening formed by the pile warp PT and the ground warp GT is beaten on the pre-woven CF by the reed 5. The feeding side as the pile forming element and the pile forming element are arranged so as to be separated from the striking position (the most advanced position of the scissors 5), and at the time of the first pick, so that the CF before weaving is in a position coincident with the striking position. The terry motion members 15 and 16 on the winding side are driven.

In the illustrated pile loom 1, both ends of the terry motion member 15 on the delivery side are supported by support levers 15a that are rotatably supported by a loom frame (not shown) via a rotation shaft 15b. ing. Further, both ends of the take-up-side terry motion member 16 are supported by support levers 16a that are rotatably supported by a loom frame via a rotation shaft 16b. Accordingly, the terry motion members 15 and 16 on the sending side and the winding side are provided so as to be rotatable and displaceable around the rotating shafts 15b and 16b with respect to the loom frame.

The support levers 15a and 16a are connected to the swing lever 18 by connecting rods 17 and 19, respectively. Accordingly, when the swing lever 18 is driven to swing, the terry motion members 15 and 16 on the sending side and the take-up side are rotationally displaced in the same direction, and the pre-woven CF is accordingly displaced.

Similarly to the one described in Patent Document 1, in the illustrated pile loom 1, the swing lever 18 is connected to the output shaft Ms of a drive motor M (drive means) independent of the main drive motor of the loom. Thus, it is driven to swing by a drive motor M. Accordingly, by appropriately controlling the drive of the drive motor M by the pile control device 48, the timing for displacing the CF before weaving can be arbitrarily set, and the timing can be changed during weaving. It becomes. That is, for example, a change from weaving with 3 pile picks to weaving with 4 pile picks, or 3 picks for the same 4 pick pile (1 pick for the first pick) The change from weaving to weaving in which the loose pick is 2 picks (the first pick is 2 picks) can be performed during continuous operation (weaving) without stopping the loom.

In the pile loom as described above, the opening device (not shown) for giving the opening movement to the pile warp PT and the ground warp GT as described above can electrically control the individual movements of the plurality of reed frames. If it is a thing (for example, an electronic dobby opening device, an electric opening device in which each frame is driven by a dedicated drive motor, etc.), the opening device is driven according to a preset opening pattern.

Further, as described in Patent Document 1, in a loom equipped with the opening device as described above, other weaving pattern information may be set for the opening device in addition to the opening pattern. . The weaving pattern information here includes information on the operation (control) mode of the apparatus involved in weaving other than the opening device, in addition to the above opening pattern. In the case of a pile loom, the one pile described above is included. The weaving pattern information includes a pile weaving pattern composed of pile forming information such as the number of pile picks in the forming cycle, the number of first picks, the number of loose picks, and the amount of displacement before weaving. In the pile loom, the above-described pile control device 48 controls the driving of the drive motor M based on the pile formation information included in the pile weaving pattern, and operates the pile forming elements in a manner according to the pile weaving pattern. Let

A setting example of the weaving pattern information is shown in FIG. FIG. 6 shows an example of a display screen when the setting state of the weaving pattern information is displayed on a display device included in the pattern editing apparatus. The pattern editing device is a display device provided on the loom and capable of editing the display contents (for example, a display device having a touch panel display), or a personal computer outside the loom. Is mentioned.

In FIG. 6, an opening pattern for the opening device, which is one of the weaving pattern information, is shown on the left side of the display screen 20. The illustrated example is a setting example of an opening pattern when weaving is performed using twelve hook frames (first to twelfth hook frames in order from the weaving front side). As shown in the figure, the opening pattern is set by setting the driving mode of each reed frame for each weaving cycle as one repeat of the weaving structure, and the position of the reed frame at the time of warp opening for each weaving cycle (maximum) The ascending position / the most descending position) is set for the total number of steps in order from step No. 1 (the first weaving cycle of the weaving structure 1 repeat). This total step is the number of weaving cycles (the number of picks) of one weave structure, and is 1000 picks in the illustrated example.

In the illustrated example, the setting display column 21 in which the cells 21a on the left side of the display screen 20 are arranged in a matrix form is a portion indicating the opening pattern. The number in the display column 22 on the left side of the setting display column 21 indicates the weaving step number. The weaving step number in the display field 22 corresponds to not only the opening pattern but also the weaving pattern information. Furthermore, the number group 23 attached to the upper part of the setting display column 21 indicates a hull frame (first to 20th hull frames) corresponding to each cell 21a. In the example shown in the figure, the set opening pattern is an opening pattern for weaving using the first to twelfth rib frames, and therefore the thirteenth to twentieth in the setting display field 21. The cell 21a corresponding to the frame is not displayed. The opening pattern of the cell 21a corresponding to each reed frame depends on whether the corresponding reed frame is at the highest position or the lowest position at the time of warp opening at each weaving step. The display modes are set in different formats and are displayed as shown in the figure.

Further, on the display screen 20, as shown on the right side of the setting display field 21, in addition to the opening pattern, as other weaving pattern information, the type (color) of the weft thread inserted at each weaving step (color), the weft density , And pile formation information for forming a pile weaving pattern, and the like are displayed.

In the illustrated example, the pile pattern information (P) as the pile formation information is set in the setting display field 23 with the symbol “P” attached to the upper portion, and for example, “3 2L-1F” or “4” 2L-2F ". Incidentally, the first “3” in “3 2L-1F” represents the number of pile picks. “2L” represents the number of loose picks, and the number of loose picks is two. Further, “1F” represents the number of first picks, and represents that the number of first picks is one pick. That is, “3 2L-1F” represents that one pile forming cycle is completed in a total of three picks by performing one pick first pick after two loose picks. Similarly, “4 2L-2F” has a pile pick number of 4 picks, both loose picks and first picks are 2 picks, and 2 picks are taken after 2 loose picks for a total of 4 picks. It shows that one pile formation cycle is completed by picking.

The setting work of the weaving pattern information as described above can be performed, for example, by using the display screen 20 shown in FIG. 1 as an editing / setting screen. That is, the display screen 20 is displayed on the display device of the pattern editing device, and each cell in each setting display column on the display screen 20 is made in a state where information can be input, and according to the weaving step corresponding to each cell. The above-mentioned weaving pattern setting operation can be performed by inputting and setting the information. In general, this input setting work is performed manually by an operator using the pattern editing apparatus.

By the way, conventionally, when setting the weaving pattern information, a setting operation is performed in which information corresponding to a corresponding weaving step is input one by one for each cell in which information is to be input. . That is, with regard to the pile weaving pattern, the above-described pile forming information such as “3 2L-1F” or “4 2L-2F” is input and set for each cell.

However, in such setting work, there is a problem that the input work requires a lot of time and labor, and an input error tends to be caused. Details are as follows.

The pile formation information includes information on the number of pile picks in one piece of information. Therefore, for example, the pile formation information whose pile pick number is “3” always sets the same information over three weaving steps. Thus, although it is essential to input and set the same information for a plurality of continuous weaving steps, conventionally, the same information is given to each cell corresponding to the plurality of continuous weaving steps. It is necessary to input one by one, and the input setting work is very complicated. In addition, since the work has to be performed for all the pile weaving portions in the woven structure 1 repeat, the number of inputs is large and time and labor are required.

Further, if there is only one type of pile formation information set for the pile weaving portion in one repeat of the weave structure, it can be said that there is a low possibility that an input error will occur. However, when it is necessary to set a plurality of different pieces of pile formation information, that is, when there is pile weaving with different numbers of pile picks in one repeat of the weaving structure, an erroneous input is performed in the setting operation. there is a possibility. For example, the pile formation information for which the number of pile picks is 4 is always the same information input over 4 weaving steps. There may be cases where information is input. If such an input mistake is made, further time and labor are required for the correction work.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-350303

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to facilitate the input setting work of the pile formation information in the pile loom including the pile weaving pattern in which the pile formation information is set as one repeat of the weaving structure as the weaving pattern information. The input of pile formation information is reliably performed by the number of pile picks included in the information, thereby preventing an input error from occurring and reducing the time and labor required for the setting work.

Based on the above problems, the present invention provides a pile forming information including the number of weaving cycles in one pile forming cycle according to a pile weaving pattern set for each weaving step, by a driving means independent of the main drive motor of the loom. It is premised on a pile loom that operates a driven pile forming element to change the relative position between the punching position of the heel and the pre-weaving of the woven fabric to form the pile. The present invention is a pile weaving pattern editing apparatus for creating and editing a pile weaving pattern used in such a pile loom, and is input and set for an arbitrary weaving step designated as a start step. Based on the pile formation information, the pile setting information corresponding to the input and setting is applied to a plurality of weaving steps following the start step in which the input setting is performed according to the number of weaving cycles included in the pile formation information. Control means for automatically setting pile formation information is provided.

The “input setting” mentioned above is not limited to the case where information is directly input into the setting field, but the setting field is selected and information to be set from a plurality of preset information is set. The selection includes setting the selected information in the setting field. In addition, when a setting field is specified and information is input on another input screen, the information is set in the corresponding setting field.

According to the above-described pile weaving pattern editing apparatus according to the present invention, the control unit is configured to input the pile according to the number of weaving cycles included in the pile forming information based on the pile forming information input and set for an arbitrary weaving step. The pile formation information corresponding to the input pile formation information is automatically set for a plurality of continuous weaving steps starting from the weaving step in which the formation information is input and set. Thereby, for example, in the case of inputting and setting pile formation information in which the number of pile picks is n picks, the operator can only apply the pile formation information to the first weaving step of one pile formation cycle including the n picks. For the remaining (n-1) pick weaving steps, the pile forming information is automatically input and set by the control means based on the pile forming information input by the operator. Accordingly, the number of inputs by the operator is reduced to 1 / n or less, and the input setting of the pile formation information for the n-pick weaving step is reliably performed. Therefore, the time and labor required for the operator to input and set the pile formation information can be greatly reduced.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1 shows a setting display screen 20 for inputting and setting the above-described weaving pattern information. In FIG. 1, parts common to those described above are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted below. In the following description, it is assumed that the pile loom to which the present invention is applied is the above-described cloth movement type pile loom. However, the pile loom to which the present invention is applied is not limited to the cloth moving type pile loom, and may be a pile loom in which the striking position is changed with respect to the fixed pre-weaving position.

In the setting display screen 20 shown in FIG. 1, setting display fields 23, 24, 25, and 26 in which weaving pattern information other than the opening pattern is input and set are provided on the right side of the setting display field 21 in which the opening pattern is set. ing. Among them, in the setting display field 26, as the weaving pattern information, the type (color) of the weft thread inserted at each weaving step and information (density) regarding the weft density are set.

The pile weaving pattern as one of the weaving pattern information referred to in the present invention is formed by the pile forming information set in the setting display fields 23, 24, and 25. In the illustrated example, the pile pattern information (P) ([3 2L-1F], [4 3L-1F], [4 2L-2F], [5 3L-2F] as one of the above-described pile formation information. ], Etc.) are set in the setting display field 23 with the symbol “P” attached at the top.

In this embodiment, it is assumed that pre-weaving position information (L), which is information related to the relative position between the hammering position and the pre-woven CF, is set as the pile formation information. Then, on the setting display screen 20 shown in the figure, the pre-weaving position information (L) is input and set in the setting display field 25 having the symbol “L” attached to the upper part. Further, in the illustrated example, the pile step information (S) in one pile forming cycle is displayed, and the pile step information (S) is displayed with a setting “S” on the upper side. Set in column 24.

The cells 23a, 24a, 25a in the setting display fields 23, 24, 25 correspond to the step numbers of the weaving steps in the leftmost display field 22 of the setting display screen 20, and the cells 23a, 24a, 25a. Is set with information corresponding to the corresponding weaving step.

FIG. 2 shows the use of a personal computer (hereinafter referred to as “PC”) 30 outside the loom as a pattern editing device, and the above-mentioned weaving pattern information set in the personal computer 30 is transferred to the loom side via the memory card MC. This is an example of setting for the setting device 40.

The personal computer 30 includes a personal computer main body 31, a display 33 as a display device, and a keyboard 35 as an input device. In the personal computer main body 31, a program for creating and editing the weaving pattern information is set. Therefore, in this embodiment, the personal computer main body 31 corresponds to the control means in the present invention.

The setting device 40 on the loom side includes a central processing unit (hereinafter referred to as “CPU”) 41, an input / output port (hereinafter referred to as “I / O port”) 42 connected to the CPU 74, and a storage device 43. . Further, a display device 45 on the loom, an input device 46 and a card interface (hereinafter referred to as “card I / F”) 47 are connected to the I / O port 42 of the setting device 40.

The weaving pattern information created by the personal computer 30 and stored in the memory card MC is read into the CPU 41 via the card I / F 47 and the I / O port 42 and stored in the storage device 43. The weaving pattern information stored in the storage unit 43 can be displayed on the display unit 45 by operating the input unit 46 and giving a display command from the input unit 46 to the CPU 41 via the I / O port 42. it can.

Further, based on the weaving pattern information stored in the storage device 43, the CPU 41 outputs the setting information to each control device of the device on the loom involved in weaving. For example, the pile formation information can be output to the pile control device 48 based on the set pile weaving pattern. In addition, although not shown in the figure, it is set for the opening control device for driving the opening device, the weft insertion control device for controlling the weft insertion, or the winding control device for controlling the density. The setting information can be output based on the open pattern, color, or density.

Next, the setting of the pile weaving pattern using the pile weaving pattern editing apparatus according to the present invention will be described in detail.

First, the worker displays a new setting display screen 20 on the display 33 of the personal computer 30. In this state, it is assumed that the setting display fields 21 and 23 to 26 on the setting display screen 20 are blank. Therefore, the operator starts setting the opening pattern, the information about the type and density of the weft inserted at each weaving step, and the pile weaving pattern as the weaving pattern information. The description about the setting of information regarding the type and density is omitted.

In order to set the pile weaving pattern, the operator first causes the personal computer main body 31 as the control means to execute a program for editing the pile weaving pattern. As a result, the cells 23a, 24a, and 25a in the setting display fields 23 to 25 in which the pile formation information is set are in a state where information can be input, and the cursors for setting the cells 23a, 24a, and 25a to the selected state. 27 is displayed. Therefore, the operator places the cursor 27 on the cell 23a of step No. 1 in the setting display field 23 in order to input the pile formation information of step No. 1, which is the start step, that is, the start step is designated. The pile pattern information (P) is input. The cursor 27 can be moved by, for example, a cursor key on the keyboard 35 and can be set at an arbitrary position.

In the illustrated example, a plurality of pile pattern information (P) that can be used is set in advance, and numbers 0 to 9 are assigned to each pile pattern information (P), which are displayed in the display column 28. Has been. This is for facilitating the input setting of the pile pattern information (P). Specifically, when inputting the pile pattern information (P) to the cell 23a of the setting display field 23, the numeric keys of the keyboard 35 are operated instead of operating the keyboard 35 and inputting characters one by one. Thus, the pile pattern information (P) assigned to the number is input and set.

According to the pile weaving pattern editing apparatus according to the present embodiment, when the pile pattern information (P) is input and set for the start step as described above by the operator, the control means 31 is set and input. Based on the pile pattern information (P), the number of pile pattern information (P) corresponding to the number of pile picks (for example, n) included in the pile pattern information (P) is automatically set. Specifically, the control means 31 includes the same pile pattern information (P) in the above-mentioned number of pile picks = n cells 23a including the start step cell (hereinafter referred to as “input cell”) 23a input and set by the operator. ) Is input to the input cell 23a for the (pile pick number (n) -1) cells 23a following the input cell 23a. The same pile pattern information (P) is automatically set.

For example, if the pile pattern information (P) input and set in the input cell 23a is [32L-1F] as shown in the figure, the control means 31 determines the number of pile picks based on the pile pattern information (P). Therefore, a program for automatically setting the same [32L-1F] pile pattern information (P) is executed for the two-pick cells 23a following the input cell 23a. As a result, the pile pattern information (P) of [32L-1F] set by the operator is set for each of the cells 23a for three consecutive picks including the input cell 23a. (State of FIG. 1). If the pile pattern information (P) input and set in the input cell 23a is for the number of pile picks = 4 picks ([4 3L-1F], [4 2L-2F]), the control means 31 A program for automatically setting the same pile pattern information (P) is executed for the cells 23a for three picks following the input cell 23a.

As described above, according to the pile weaving pattern editing apparatus according to the present embodiment, when inputting and setting the pile pattern information (P) in which the number of pile picks is n picks, the operator inputs the pile pattern information (P). It is only necessary to input and set the pile pattern information (P) only for the first cell 23a of the set n consecutive pick cells, and the setting for the remaining (n-1) pick cells 23a. Is automatically performed by the control means 31. Therefore, the number of operations for input setting by the operator is reduced, and the input setting for the number of pile picks included in the pile pattern information (P) is surely performed.

When the automatic setting of the pile pattern information (P) as described above is completed, the control unit 31 moves the cursor 27 to the cell 23a next to the automatically set cell and enters a standby state. Specifically, in the case of FIG. 1, in the state where the cursor 27 is placed on the cell 23a of step No. 1 (first weaving step) in the setting display field 23, the operator selects the number of pile picks. When the three-pick pile pattern information (P) is input, the control means 31 automatically sets the same pile pattern information (P) for the cells 23a of Steps No. 2 and 3, and when this is completed. Then, the cursor 27 is moved to the cell 23a of Step No. 4 to enter a standby state. According to this, since the cursor 27 automatically moves to the cell to be input next, the input setting of the pile pattern information (P) is continuously performed without performing the operation of moving the cursor 27. be able to.

In this embodiment, in addition to the pile pattern information (P), pre-weaving position information (L) and pile step information (S) are automatically set as pile formation information. That is, the control means 31 automatically sets the pre-weaving position information (L) corresponding to each weaving step for the corresponding cell in the setting display field 25 together with the automatic setting of the pile pattern information (P), Step numbers corresponding to the number of pile picks are automatically set in order from 1 as pile step information (S) for the corresponding cells in the setting display column 24.

Here, the pre-weaving position information (L) is the beat-up time at each weaving step in one pile forming cycle in the cloth movement type pile loom (the time when the weft thread inserted in the weaving step is beaten) This is information regarding the position of the CF before the strike position. Therefore, the pre-weaving position information in the first pick weaving step is 0 mm. In the example shown in the figure, the pre-weaving position information (L) is set as a plurality of distances from the striking position of the CF before the weaving in another database (not shown). Assigned (for example, 1: 0 mm, 2:10 mm, 3:12 mm,...). In each cell 25a of the setting display column 25, a number assigned to each of the weaving positions (distance from the hammering position) is set. Incidentally, in the above-mentioned another database, [1: 0 mm] is the pre-weaving position information (L) corresponding to the first pick, which is fixed.

A database as shown in FIG. 3 is set and stored in the control means 31. Then, the control means 31 executes a program for automatically setting pile formation information according to this database.

Specifically, when [32L-1F] is input by the operator, the control means 31 first displays [32L-1F] in the P column (setting display column 23) in the first step (Step). Is set to “1” in the S column (setting display column 24) and “2” in the L column (setting display column 25) of the same step number. Next, in the following step (Step + 1), the same pile pattern information (P) as [32L-1F] inputted is set for the cell of the next step No. in the P column, and further, the same step Set "2" in the S column of No. and "2" in the L column. Then, in the next step (Step + 2), [32L-1F] is set in the P column of the next step No., and “3” is set in the S column of the same step No. in the L column. “1” is set and the program is terminated (No. 0 in the database in FIG. 3).

Similarly, when the operator inputs [4 3L-1F], [4 2L-2F], [5 3L-2F],... As the pile pattern information (P), the database of FIG. The program is executed and pile setting information is automatically set. The number set for the L column in the database is appropriately selected from another database that sets the above-mentioned pre-weaving position information (L) according to the weaving at that time. However, in the first pick weaving step, the number set in the L column is “1” (= 0 mm).

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the control means 31 has a data check function for checking whether the pile pattern information (P) set as described above is set correctly. The data check for the setting of the pile pattern information (P) is performed by operating a data check execution button 29 on the left side of the setting display screen 20 or by a specific data assigned to execute the data check of the keyboard 35. It is executed by operating the key.

Incidentally, if the above-described program for automatically setting a pile weaving pattern is normally executed, there should be no setting error of each information. However, during execution of the program, if the program ends before being completed for some reason and the operator inputs and sets the next pile pattern information (P) without noticing it, the set pile weaving pattern Will be incorrect as a whole. If weaving is performed according to a pile weaving pattern with incorrect setting information, the pile woven fabric to be woven has a quality problem. On the other hand, if the control means 31 has a data check function, it is possible to check whether there is an error in the setting when the setting of the pile weaving pattern is completed. Occurrence can be prevented in advance.

Regarding the data check function of the control means 31 for the setting of the pile pattern information (P), the pile pattern information (P) should always be the same as the number of pile picks included in the information. Therefore, the check for the setting of the pile pattern information (P) is performed by checking whether or not the same pile pattern information (P) is set for each pile forming cycle by the number of pile picks. Can be confirmed. The check for the setting of the pile pattern information (P) can be performed, for example, by causing the control unit 31 to execute the following program.

1) When the data check execution button 29 is operated, first, the number of pile picks (n) included in the pile pattern information (P) from the pile pattern information (P) set in the cell 23a of step No. 1 Is determined and stored.

2) Whether the same pile pattern information (P) as the cell 23a of step No. 1 is set for each cell 23a from step No. 2 to step No. n according to the number of pile picks (n) stored above. Are checked sequentially.

3) If no setting error is found by the above check, the number of pile picks (n) stored in the previous pile formation cycle check is erased, and then the pile pattern set in the cell of step No. n + 1 The number of pile picks is determined from the information (P) and stored.

4) After that, the above-mentioned 2) and 3) are similarly repeated to check the setting in sequence, and when the check of the cells 23a for the total steps is completed, the above program is terminated.

If no error is found as a result of the setting check by the program, the program ends normally and a message to that effect is displayed. If an error is found in the settings during the checking process, the check program is stopped at that time, and an error message or the like may be displayed with the cursor 27 stopped at that position.

In the description of the above embodiment, the case of setting a new pile weaving pattern has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the case of editing and using an existing pile weaving pattern or the created pile weaving pattern It can also be used to correct a pattern.

For example, when a pile weaving pattern that has been previously set, used and saved is read out and edited and used, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), it is inserted into this existing pile weaving pattern. The weaving steps are inserted and added by the number of pile picks of the pile forming information to be performed, and the same automatic setting as in the above embodiment can be performed for the added weaving steps. In this case, the operator is not limited to setting the pile formation information after performing the operation of adding the weaving step. For example, “Add [Pile Pattern Information (P)] to Step No. X”. By designating, the control means 31 can automatically add a weaving step and set pile formation information.

Moreover, as shown in FIG.4 (b), it is the same also when changing to a part of existing pile weaving pattern. In the case of FIG. 4B, the pile formation information that has already been set as shown in the drawing is not limited to being erased and newly set, but the set pile formation information is overwritten. It is also possible to change.

Further, when the pile formation information is changed as described above, for example, a portion where the pile formation information having a pile pick number of 3 is set is changed to the pile formation information having a pile pick number of 4 picks. In this case, since the number of weaving steps is insufficient, the pile formation information cannot be set correctly as it is.

Therefore, a weaving step is automatically added to the control means 31 in order to cope with a case where the number of pile picks of the input pile forming information as described above cannot be matched with the number of weaving steps that can be entered. It may have a function. This function is realized, for example, by causing the control means 31 to execute a program as follows.

1) The number of pile picks (for example, n) of the pile pick information (P) input and set by the operator is determined.

2) Information (pile step information (S)) on the S column (setting display column 24) of the weaving step after the n steps of the weaving step set above based on the number of pile picks (n) determined above. It is determined whether or not is set. If it is determined that no information is set, pile setting information is automatically set as it is, and the program is terminated after the setting is completed.

3) If information is set for the S column, it is determined whether or not the set value is “1”. If it is determined that the setting value is “1”, the pile formation information is automatically set as it is, and the program is terminated after the setting is completed.

4) If it is determined that the set value is not “1” for the S column, it is determined that the number of pile picks in the input pile formation information does not match the number of weaving steps that can be input. A message confirming that the weaving step is added is displayed on the display screen.

5) When the above message is confirmed by the operator, a weaving step is added, and then pile formation information is automatically set, and the program is terminated after the setting is completed.

The function of automatically adding a weaving step as described above is also effective for correction when an error is found in the setting in the data check for the above-described pile pattern information (P). In other words, when only (n-1) pieces of pile formation information with n pieces of pile picks that should be set with n pieces of the same information are set, the above function is used when performing the correction work. For example, the correction work can be easily performed.

In the above embodiment, the start step is designated by the cursor 27 and the input setting of the pile pick information (P) is performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, for example, as shown in FIG. In the setting screen 50 different from the setting display screen 20 of the above embodiment, the start step is designated and the pile pattern information to be input is set, whereby the control means 31 designates the setting display screen 20. The pile pick information (P) may be input and set in the start step.

Specifically, in the example of FIG. 5A, a step number as a start step is input to the start step setting field 51 of the setting screen 50, and pile pattern information to be input and set to the start step is set. By operating the execution button 55 after inputting in the column 53, the control means 31 applies the pile pattern information (in the setting column 53 to the cell 23a corresponding to the designated start step) ( P) is input and set. Then, automatic setting such as pile pattern information (P) in the above embodiment is executed.

In the above embodiment, the input setting of the pile pattern information (P) for the start step is performed for each start step. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the control means 31 performs the specified number of times. You may make it perform the input setting of the pile pattern information (P) with respect to each start step.

Specifically, as in the example of FIG. 5A, on the setting screen 60 different from the setting display screen 20, the first start step and the pile pattern information (P) to be input and set are set in the setting fields 61 and 63. In addition to this, the number of piles as the number of repetitions is input to the setting field 67, and the execution button 65 is operated (FIG. 5B). Thereby, the control means 31 inputs and sets the pile pattern information (P) input to the setting field 63 for the cell 23a of the setting display field 23 corresponding to the first start step specified by the input to the setting field 61. Thereafter, automatic setting of pile pattern information (P) and the like in the above embodiment is executed. Furthermore, as the second iteration number, the control means 31 similarly applies the pile pattern information (P) to the cell 23a of the next step of the cell 23a automatically set as described above, which is the cell 23a corresponding to the next start step. Set the input. Thereafter, in the same manner, the control means 31 performs the automatic setting of the pile pattern information (P) or the like of the above embodiment and the input setting of the pile pattern information (P) for the start step by the number of repetitions specified in the setting column 67. Repeat. As described above, in addition to the automatic setting function of the above-described embodiment, the control unit 31 has a function of repeatedly performing the input setting of the pile pattern information (P) for the start step a designated number of times, thereby forming a plurality of piles. The setting of pile pattern information (P) or the like for the cycle can be automatically performed by one operation.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the pre-weaving position information (L) is set in advance according to the number of steps from the start step. Instead, the control means 31 receives the input pile setting. Based on the pick information (P), the same information as the pre-weaving position information (L) in the weaving step of one pile forming cycle in which the latest same pile pick information (P) is set may be set. Specifically, for example, when [32L-1F] is input and set in the cell 23a of the setting display field 23 corresponding to step No. 4 on the setting display screen 20 in FIG. Refer to the pre-weaving position information (L) set for the weaving step (steps No. 1 to 3) of one pile forming cycle in which the same pile forming information (P) ([3 2L-1F]) is set. The same information is set in the cells 25a of Step Nos. 4-6.

Note that the present invention is not limited to any of the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the claims of the present invention.
