Fabric turner

Abstract: For selectively inverting flexible and limp planar workpieces (100) such as fabric, an apparatus includes a primary workpiece propeller (112) having a cylindrical means for contacting the workpiece (100) about a central rotating axis. A slot (160) of sufficient size to receive the workpiece (100) is positioned in a substantially vertical orientation beneath the primary propeller (112). The slot (160) preferably has a flared upper end positioned directly beneath and in contact or near contact with the propeller (112). The workpiece (100) is drawn into the slot (160) by the rotation of the propeller (112) and follows the contour of the flared open end of the slot (160). The workpiece (100) enters into the slot (160) until the trailing edge of the workpiece (100) is in contact with the primary propeller (112). The trailing edge of the workpiece (100) is drawn by the propeller (112) to the opposite side of the flared opening of the slot (160) and is subsequently pulled out of the slot (160). Collisions are prevented between workpieces by a control circuit (36) that instructs the apparatus when to eject the workpieces (100).

Description: This invention relates to the field of automated handling of flexible limp planar objects. More particularly, this invention relates to the field of automated fabric handlers with the specific purpose of turning a piece of fabric over so that the top side is down and vice versa. In the field of automated material handling, the handling of rigid and semi-rigid objects is understood and utilizes machinery to push, pull, grab or flip such objects. Flexible and limp objects, such as pieces of fabric, pose particularly onerous problems in the field of automated handling. Such objects may only be pulled. An attempt to push such an object will generally result in the object bunching up, folding over itself and ultimately jamming the flow of the workpiece. EP-A-0391548, which is mentioned solely in connection with Article 54(3) and (4) EPC, describes an apparatus that carries out a method of inverting a flexible, limp workpiece having a first face and a second face, comprising the steps of: arranging the workpiece with a leading edge and a trailing edge and with its first face facing upwards; drawing the workpiece towards and down into a substantially vertical inversion slot by operation of a primary workpiece propeller at the upper end of the inversion slot; sensing the trailing edge of the workpiece adjacent the upper end of the inversion slot before engagement of the trailing edge with the primary workpiece propeller; generating in response to the sensing of the trailing edge a control signal; momentarily stopping downward movement of the workpiece in the inversion slot in response to the control signal with a trailing end portion of the workpiece remaining in contact with the primary workpiece propeller and the trailing edge of the workpiece being flipped over by the primary workpiece propeller; and pulling on the workpiece, starting with the trailing edge, by means of the primary workpiece propeller so as to withdraw the workpiece from the inversion slot with the said second face facing upwards. The apparatus may also include a non-inverting path coupled to receive the workpiece for transporting the workpiece through the apparatus so that the first face remains upwards. Control means are coupled to the non-inverting path and the inverting path for directing the workpiece to one or the other of the non-inverting path and the inverting path. EP-A-0047181 describes an apparatus for inverting a sheet of paper. The apparatus comprises means for receiving the sheet into the inverting apparatus starting with a leading edge; a pair of substantially parallel, spaced apart substantially horizontal walls defining an inversion slot having an opening at one end; a primary workpiece propeller for drawing the sheet by its leading edge from the receiving means into the inversion slot and for removing the sheet from the inversion slot by its trailing edge; and means for stopping the sheet at a selected location within the inversion slot in such a manner that a trailing end portion of the sheet remains in contact with the primary workpiece propeller and the primary workpiece propeller flips over the trailing edge of the sheet and withdraws the sheet from the inversion slot by pulling on the trailing edge of the sheet. This known apparatus is a sheet inverter in a xerographic copier for documents and relies upon the sheet having sufficient rigidity to remain uncrumpled when driven between a driver roller and an idler roller or an idling sphere which serve as the stopping means. The driven roller rotates continually in the direction for driving the sheet upwards in the inversion slot. The idler roller or idling sphere is held against the inserted sheet by gravity. A mechanical gate device is provided that operates as an inverter selector finger. Depending upon the position of this gate device, the sheet is either deflected into the sheet inverter or by-passes the inverter. In relation to a sheet inverter having the inversion slot horizontal and using a pair of non-contacting stopping rollers with complementary rings arranged to corrugate the sheet longitudinally, it is proposed in EP-A-0047181 that a pivoting or spring loaded ski be provided in the inversion slot between the primary workpiece propeller and the stopping rollers to prevent sheets of light weight paper buckling. Xerox Disclosure Journal, Volume 8, Number 5, September/October 1983 at page 403 describes an inverter for copy sheets in a copier in which a primary workpiece propeller in the form of three contacting rollers is mounted at the mouth of a wide inversion slot that is tilted from the vertical so that the wall adjacent the output nip of the three rollers slants away from the vertical position in the upwards direction in the slot. A sheet is allowed to drop away from the input nip of the three rollers and into the slot. A sensor senses when the sheet leaves the input nip and thereupon actuates a solenoid that in response forces a constantly rotating scuffer roller into contact with the lower part of the sheet in the slot so that the top part of the sheet tilts over towards the output nip of the three rollers and the scuffer roller drives the sheet upwards into the output nip. According to the present invention there is provided an apparatus as defined hereinafter in claim 1, to which reference should now be made. In a preferred embodiment, the inverting path for flipping over flexible and limp planar workpieces such as fabric has a primary workpiece propeller having, for contacting the workpiece, a cylindrical means disposed about a central rotating axis. A slot of sufficient size to receive the workpiece is positioned in a vertical orientation beneath the primary propeller. The slot has a flared upper end positioned directly beneath and in contact or near contact with the propeller. The fabric is drawn into the slot by the rotation of the propeller and follows the contour of the flared open end of the slot. The fabric enters into the slot until the trailing edge of the fabric is in contact with the primary propeller. The trailing edge of the fabric is gripped by the propeller and thereby drawn to the opposite side of the flared opening of the slot and is subsequently pulled out of the slot. The fabric has thereby been inverted so that the top surface of the fabric is now on the bottom. A preferred apparatus embodying the invention for selectively inverting a limp fabric workpiece having a top surface, a bottom surface, a leading edge and a trailing edge, comprises: a) an input means comprising a first pair of coacting rollers for receiving the leading edge and propelling the workpiece downstream; b) a first path having a downstream direction for inverting the workpiece, comprising: 1) a second pair of coacting rollers downstream of the input means for receiving the leading edge and propelling the workpiece downsteam, wherein one of the second pair of coacting rollers is a primary inversion propeller; 2) a pair of substantially vertical walls spaced apart from one another forming an inversion slot therebetween positioned downstream of and below the second pair of coacting rollers for receiving the workpiece therefrom; 3) means for stopping the workpiece at a selected location within the slot so that the trailing edge of the workpiece is in contact with the primary inversion propeller; 4) a third pair of coacting rollers downstream of the slot for receiving the trailing edge and withdrawing the workpiece from the slot, wherein one of the third pair of coacting rollers is the primary inversion propeller; and 5) a fourth pair of coacting rollers downstream of the third pair of coacting rollers for receiving the workpiece and propelling downstream; c) a second path having a downstream direction for passing the workpiece through the apparatus without inverting, comprising: 1) a diverter gate having a non-inverting position located downstream of the first pair of coacting rollers and upstream of the second pair of coacting rollers for diverting the workpiece away from the first path; 2) transfer means downstream of the diverter gate for receiving the workpiece from the gate in the non-inverting position and propelling it downstream to the fourth pair of coacting rollers; and d) control means coupled to the first path and the second path for providing instructions enabling the workpiece to exit from the apparatus. The means for stopping preferably comprises means for monitoring the position of the trailing edge of the workpiece relative to the slot and for generating a control signal to stop the progress of the workpiece so that the trailing edge remains in contact with the primary inversion propeller, and a fifth pair of coacting rollers including a movable roller which is movable between an extended position for stopping the progress of the workpiece into the slot and a retracted position for allowing the workpiece to move in the slot. The fifth pair of coacting rollers are driven in response to the control signal. The inverting path may be longer than the non-inverting path, and means may be provided for accelerating the workpiece through the inverting path. The control means then comprises a first workpiece sensor in the first path and a second workpiece sensor in the second path, which may each comprise a photo cell, connected to a control circuit. The control means may further include means for preventing collisions between workpieces. The invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:- Figures 1 through 8 show a cross-section of a fabric inverter through the various cycles of its operation. Figure 9 shows a cross-section view of a first alternative fabric inverter. Figure 10 shows a cross-section view of a second alternative fabric inverter. Figure 11 shows a cross-section view of a third alternative fabric inverter. Figures 12A and 12B show cross-section views of possible workpieces utilized in connection with the present invention. Figure 13 shows a cross-section view of a fourth alternative fabric inverter. It is pointed out that Figures 1 to 11 and 13 do not show a complete embodiment of the invention. Figures 14 through 26 show cross-sections of the preferred embodiment of the present invention through the various cycles of its operation. Figure 1 shows, in cross-section, the major components of the apparatus for inverting a fabric workpiece. The primary propeller 20 consists of a central rotating shaft 22 on which a cylindrical rotating means is positioned for propelling a fabric workpiece. The rotating means 24 is preferably an annular brush or roller or a series of annular brushes or rollers positioned along the central axis 22 for engaging a piece of fabric 48. The propeller 20 is positioned to come into contact or nearly in contact with the input tray 26. The input tray 26 may be formed of sheet metal or another planar surface along which the fabric 48 slides or is drawn by any convenient means prior to engaging the propeller 20. The output tray 28 is of similar construction to the input tray. The two trays each bend downward in a flared arcuate curve where the propeller 20 engages the input tray 26 and the output tray 28, and terminate at the top of the appropriate respective wall of the slot 30. The slot 30 is preferably formed between the two sheet metal portions. The slot 30 flares outwardly near its upper end where it contacts the propeller 20. A fabric sensing device 32 is positioned in the input tray 26 in close proximity to the propeller 20 and is preferably a light sensor such as a photo sensitive diode. The fabric sensor 32 is coupled to an electronic control circuit 36 through wires 34. A secondary propeller 38 is positioned along one side of the slot 30. When it is engaged with the fabric 48, the propeller 38 propels the fabric 48 upward. The propeller 38 includes a slideably mounted axle 40 around which is connected a brush or roller 42 similar to that for the primary propeller 24. The axle 40 is coupled at either end to a slideably controlled piston 44. The piston 44 is coupled to the air cylinder 46. The air cylinder 46 is controlled by the control signal A as shown. In Figure 1, a piece of fabric 48 is shown to be positioned on the input tray 26 and moving to the right. The top 48A of the fabric 48 is shown by a dotted line and the bottom 48B of the fabric 48 by a solid line. The movement to the right is shown by the arrow and may be generated by any convenient means. For example, there may be a conveyor belt or a propeller brush positioned over and contacting the input tray 26 thereby pulling the fabric 48 toward the primary propeller 20. A light source 50 is positioned over fabric sensor 32 and may be any commercially available light. The control circuitry 36 receives a signal from the fabric sensor 32 indicating that light is being received by fabric sensor 32. In Figure 2, the fabric 48 is engaged by the primary propeller 20 and drawn into the slot 30. The fabric 48 also covers the fabric sensor 32. By covering the fabric sensor 32, the light from the light source 50 is prevented from reaching the fabric sensor 32. The control circuit 36 is thus conditioned to indicate that a piece of fabric is covering the fabric sensor 32 indicating that a workpiece is entering the apparatus. Referring to Figure 3, the piece of fabric 48 passes beyond the fabric sensor 32. The propeller 20 continues to draw the fabric 48 off of the input tray 26 and into the slot 30. The fabric 48 has passed beyond the fabric sensor 32 allowing the light from light source 50 to once again reach the fabric sensor 32. Upon receiving indication that light is once more being received from fabric sensor 32 the control circuit 36, issues a signal A to control the air cylinder 46. The air cylinder 46 drives the piston 44 out of the air cylinder 46. Figure 4 shows that the motion of the piston 44 extends the secondary propeller 38 through an opening in one wall of the slot 30 and brings the secondary propeller 38 into contact with the fabric 48 to press the fabric 48 between the opposite wall of the slot 30 and the secondary propeller 38 and stops the downward motion of the fabric 48. The trailing end of the upper face 48A of the fabric 48 is still in contact with the primary propeller 20 in Figure 4. The primary propeller 20 causes the trailing end of the fabric 48 to flip from the input tray 26 and come into contact with the output tray 28 as shown in Figure 5. The rotation of the secondary propeller 38 prevents the fabric 48 from falling beyond the grasp and control of the primary propeller 20. The secondary propeller 38 need not be rotating at the time it contacts the fabric. In some applications, workpieces may bunch up if the secondary propeller 38 drives the workpiece upward before the primary propeller 24 engages the fabric to draw it out of the slot 30. The rotation of the secondary propeller can be activated in response to the trailing edge of the fabric being prepared to exit the slot 30 to avoid this. Figure 5 shows the primary propeller 20 and the secondary propeller 38 propelling the fabric 48, pulling it out of the slot 30 onto the exit tray 28. Figures 6 and 7 shows that after the fabric 48 has left contact with the secondary propeller 38 that the primary propeller 20 continues to pull the fabric 48. In some applications a light 51 and photo sensor 53 can be positioned in the exit tray 28 to sense when the fabric has left the apparatus. This sensor may be coupled to control the turning of the primary propeller 24 and secondary propeller 38. The progress of the work piece can be stopped by deactivating the propellers until the work piece is required downstream. Figure 8 shows the fabric 48 leaving contact with the primary propeller 20 to be removed from the exit tray 28 by any convenient means. Figure 9 shows a first alternative fabric inverter. Rollers 52 and 54 are positioned in the arcuate curvatures formed between the input and output trays 26 and 28 and the slot 30. These rollers 52 and 54 may be free-rolling and turned by the fabric 48 moving across their surfaces. The rollers 52 and 54 may also be driven for example by a motor to enhance the moveability of the fabric into and out of slot 30. Certain circumstances do not require a secondary propeller 38. In such circumstances, some means are needed to stop the fabric. For example, in Figure 10, an air cylinder piston 56 comes into contact with the fabric holding it in place against the opposite wall of the slot with sufficient friction to allow the primary propeller 20 to flip the workpiece from the input tray 26 to the output tray 28. The piston 56 is then retracted to allow the primary propeller 20 to remove the workpiece. This embodiment may be limited to certain configurations of fabric size and flexibility. The advantage of the light sensor is that fabric of any length may be flipped over. However, if only one size of fabric is to be flipped, a specific apparatus can be built including a bottom stop 31 positioned at an appropriate position in the slot to prevent the fabric from disengaging the primary propeller as shown in Figure 11. The bottom stop 31 ran be adjusted for example by a screw 33 positioned in a channel in a side wall of slot 30 as appropriate of the workpiece. In certain circumstances, not every object should be flipped. For example, in the garment industry a bolt of fabric may be folded into a large accordion pleat 70 as shown in Figure 12A. Ordinarily, such fabric has a good side and a bad side. After forming the pleat 70 a single cut is made to form a stack of workpieces 72 as shown in Figure 12B. The workpieces in the stack 72 are alternately face up and face down. Prior to further processing, it is desirable to turn every other piece of fabric over so that each piece is oriented face up or face down. It is also desireable that all the workpieces traverse the same path. These goals are accomplished with an air cylinder 60 as shown in Figure 13. The shaft 62 of air cylinder 60 is extended across the top of the slot 30. The shaft 62 may have a plate or grate coupled to its distal end in order to more fully block the slot 30. A workpiece that is delivered to the apparatus after the air cylinder 60 is activated will be prevented from entering the slot 30. Instead, the workpiece will be drawn through the apparatus by the brush or roller 24 with its top to bottom orientation unchanged. Because workpieces that are flipped travel a further distance than those that are not flipped, it is possible for consecutive workpieces to collide. Further, it may be desireable to have evenly timed workpiece delivery to downstream equipment that is independent of whether the workpiece was flipped or not. This is especially true for automatic equipment downstream of the fabric turner. Figure 14 shows a cross-section of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. The apparatus comprises an input tray 104. The input tray is coupled to receive a workpiece and provide it into the apparatus. A coacting pair of brushes or rollers 108 and 110 is positioned at the end of the input tray 104. An input arc member 246 is adjacent to and positioned to receive workpieces from the input tray 104. Coacting brushes or rollers 112 and 114 are positioned through an opening of the input arc member 246. A slot 160 is positioned directly below the roller or brush 112. The coacting rollers and brushes 118 and 120 are positioned near the top of the slot 160. The brush 118 is coupled to a pin 122 of the air cylinder 124. In this manner, the brush or roller 118 can be extended to contact the brush or roller 120. A second arc member 156 extends from the slot 160 away from the arc 246. The two arcs 246 and 156 and the walls of slot 160 form a shape somewhat similar to a Y. The coacting brushes 112 and 116 are positioned through an opening in the arc 156. The coacting brushes 126 and 128 are positioned at the upper end of the arc 156. The output tray 106 is adjacent to and positioned to receive workpieces from the arc 156. A horizontal tray 154 extends substantially across the top of the Y formed by arcs 246, 156 and the walls of the slot 160 between the coacting brushes 108 and 110 to the coacting brushes 126 and 128. There is a gap between tray 154 and the coacting brushes 108 and 110 which gate 250 can bridge as shown in Figure 23. A roller 130 is positioned at the opposite end of the horizontal tray 154 from the roller 126. The rollers 130 and 126 are coupled to one another by the belt 132 and accordingly rotate uniformly. A light source 138 is positioned over the input tray 104 to illuminate a photo sensor 140 which is located within the input tray 104. Similarly, a light source 242 illuminates a photo cell 244 which is positioned near the downstream end of tray 154 and a photo cell 264 which is positioned near the top of the arc 156. The light sources 242 and 138 may in fact be a single light source. Figures 14 through 22 shows the sequence of events which occur to flip a piece of fabric or other workpiece over within the apparatus of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Figure 14 shows a piece of fabric having a top surface 100 and bottom surface 102 and moving to the right along input tray 104. The piece of fabric is covering photo cell 140 thereby preventing the light from striking input tray 104. The input tray 104 can be, for example, a conveyor or other means for causing the fabric to traverse into the machine. Figure 15 shows that the fabric has been gripped by the coacting rollers 108 and 110; the roller 108 is rotating in a counterclockwise direction and roller 110 is rotating in a clockwise direction. The two rollers actually touch thereby gripping the fabric and propelling it into the apparatus. Due to the force of gravity, the piece of fabric will follow the input arc 246 downward. In Figure 16, the piece of fabric has been gripped by the coacting rollers 112 and 114. Roller 112 is shown to rotate in a counterclockwise and roller 114 is shown to rotate in a clockwise direction. The coacting rollers 112 and 114 touch to pull and propel the fabric downward into the slot 160. The piece of fabric has passed into the slot 160 and no longer covers the photo cell 140 which instructs the air cylinder 124 to extend its pin 122 to push the roller 118 into contact with roller 120 in Figure 17. At this point in the operation, neither roller 118 nor roller 120 are rotating but, by touching together they prevent further motion of the fabric in a downward direction into the slot 160. The workpiece has flipped from the input arc 152 to exit the arc 156 due to the rotational direction of roller 112 in Figure 18. What was the trailing end of the workpiece is now the leading end of the workpiece and is positioned between the coacting rollers 112 and 116. The photo cell 162 is blocked from receiving light by the piece of fabric which indicates that the piece of fabric has flipped and is in the exit cycle and instructs the rollers 118 and 120 to rotate. The photo cell 162 can receive light from light source 138 or 242. In the alternative, a third light source may be positioned to illuminate the photo cell 162. Figure 19 shows that the coacting rollers 118 and 120 have begun to rotate; the roller 118 is rotating in a counterclockwise direction and the roller 120 is rotating in a clockwise direction. The coacting rollers 112 and 116 continue to rotate counterclockwise and clockwise respectively. The combination of the rotation of these four rollers 112, 116, 118 and 120 acts to pull the fabric out of the slot 160. At this point the top surface 100 of the fabric workpiece is against the exit arc 156. The fabric is still blocking light from impinging on the photo cell 162. The fabric has passed beyond Photo sensor 162 in Figure 20 instructing the coacting rollers 118 and 120 to stop rotating and the air cylinder 124 and pin 122 to retract the roller 118 in preparation for the next workpiece. Also, the fabric blocks light from impinging on the photo cell 264 indicating that the workpiece is ready to exit the apparatus. Figure 21 shows that the rotation of the coacting rollers 126 and 128 operates to draw the workpiece out of the apparatus onto the output tray 106. The output tray 106 is preferably a conveyor. Figure 22 shows the workpiece leaving the apparatus of the present invention. The photo sensor 264 is now uncovered to indicate that the workpiece has left the apparatus. Figures 23 through 26 show the operation of the apparatus where the workpiece does not get flipped over. In Figure 23, the workpiece enters the apparatus on input tray 104 as before except that the fabric is inverted from that shown in Figure 14, i.e., the top of the workpiece 100 is on the bottom and the bottom of the workpiece 102 is on the top. The control mechanism for the gate 250 is activated moving the gate to its second non-flip position 251. In Figure 24 shows that the coacting rollers 108 and 110 have gripped the workpiece and propelled it into the apparatus on the arc 246 and onto the gate which is in the non-flip position 251. The workpiece is driven into contact with the belt 132 and is driven across the horizontal tray 154 by the belt 132 in Figure 25. The belt 132 is driven by the rollers 126 and 130. As the workpiece approaches the downstream end of the tray 154 it blocks the photo cell 244 indicating that the workpiece is ready to exit the apparatus. Figure 26 shows the workpiece being propelled by the coacting rollers 126 and 128 onto output tray 106. Figure 22 also shows the last figure in this sequence. After the workpiece clears the photo sensor 244, the gate returns to the flip position 250 in preparation for the next workpiece. The two photo cells 244 and 264 act cooperatively to prevent collisions of flipped and non-flipped workpieces. The electronic control apparatus 36 receives signals from each of the photo cells 140, 162, 244 and 264. Because the flipped and non-flipped workpieces travel different distances it is important to control when they are allowed to leave the apparatus. The rollers 112, 114, 116, 118 and 120 are driven faster than the remaining rollers but precise timing is difficult to achieve with such mechanical systems. In addition, rollers 108 and 110 can be clutched to high speed during a flip cycle. A flipped workpiece is stopped as it blocks the photo cell 264 because that cell instructs the rollers 112, 116, 118 and 120 to stop until downstream equipment needs that workpiece. A non-flipped workpiece can traverse through the apparatus at the same speed required by downstream equipment. Further, the flipped workpiece cannot begin moving again until the photo cell 244 tells the electronic control 36 that the non-flipped workpiece is clear.
