Method for starting a power loom as a function of standstill time
First Claim
1. A method for starting up a power loom comprising the following steps:
- (a) ascertaining a plurality of first parameters that influence the weaving quality, said first parameters including at least a standstill time duration, a cause for said standstill, and a weaving binding type employed at the instant when said standstill occurred,(b) supplying said first parameters to a micro-processor for producing a program selector signal,(c) selecting a start-up program from a plurality of start-up programs stored in a program memory connected to said microprocessor, said selecting taking place in accordance with said selector signal for providing a start-up program based on said selector signal, and(d) controlling said starting up in response to the selected start-up program.

Abstract
The starting or restarting of a power loom is controlled through a loom control system which controls the operation of a flywheel mass and the operation of the main electric motor of the loom. The control system ascertains the standstill time and the cause for the standstill, as well as the type of weaving binding that was employed at the time of the shut-down. These parameters are processed in a micro-processor which produces a respective result signal and uses that signal for the selection of a suitable start-up or run-up program. These programs are stored in a program library or memory. The micro-processor controls the run-up in response to the selected program, whereby conventionally occurring faults in the woven fabric are avoided. Even fabric faults caused by a standstill, are avoided.
