A mechanism for driving the nipper shaft of a comber provided with a plurality of combing units, wherein a driving shaft and a nipper shaft are extended along the longitudinal direction of the comber. An eccentric disc is rigidly mounted on the driving shaft. A slider link motion mechanism is provided with a slider connected to the eccentric disc in such a condition that the slider is capable of reciprocally displacing along its own displacing passage when the eccentric disc is driven. One of the link elements of the slider link motion mechanism is slidably engaged with the slider so that a swing motion about a fulcrum thereof is created. The other link element of the above-mentioned mechanism is mounted on the swing shaft and, therefore, a quick return motion of the reciprocal turning motion of the swing shaft can be created.
A mechanism for driving a nipper shaft of a comber, comprising:
A mechanism for driving a nipper shaft of a comber comprising a driving shaft extending along the longitudinal direction of the comber, an eccentric disc rigidly mounted on said driving shaft, a slider link motion mechanism provided with a slider connected to said eccentric disc in such a condition that said slider is capable of reciprocally displacing along its own displacing passage when said eccentric disc is driven and also provided with an arm slidably engaged with said slider, said arm being provided with a center for swinging thereof and provided with a function as a link of said slider link motion mechanism, a swing lever which functions as a link of slider link motion mechanism and is rigidly mounted on said nipper shaft arranged in a parallel condition to said driving shaft, said arm being a part of a guide member having a particular shape composed of a pair of straight guide arms arranged in parallel condition and an intermediate arm connecting one end of each of said guide arms, said intermediate arm is turnably mounted on pivot shaft, said slider is provided with a pair of guide apertures for slidably receiving a corresponding one of said straight guide arms, whereby when said driving shaft is driven, said intermediate arm is provided with a swing motion about said pivot shaft so that a quick return motion of said swing lever is created.
