Abstract

In the mounting device (1) in accordance with the invention, the mounting arm (4) is held on a guide arrangement (11), the guide direction of said guide arrangement being oriented parallel to the rotational axis of the drum (3) to be fitted. A force measuring arrangement 21 is provided to detect the tensile force in the profile wire 9, said force measuring arrangement detecting the total force acting on the mounting arm (4), at least in longitudinal direction of the wire. In doing so, essentially all the forces acting on the profile wire (9) are detected, namely, the braking forces of a brake arrangement (25) as well as the braking forces of other arrangements such as, for example of alignment arrangements 28, tilting arrangements 32 or the like.

Dependent claims

Mounting device (1) for an all-steel card clothing (2) on a drum (3), comprising:

a frame (5), on which a mounting arm (4) is supported so as to be adjustable using a guide arrangement (11) in a direction of a rotational axis (6) of a drum (3) that is to be fitted with the all-steel card clothing (2),
a guide rail (12) disposed to guide the guide arrangement (11) in a direction transverse to a direction of motion for the all-steel card clothing (2) toward the drum (3),
a force measuring arrangement (21) configured to measure a force acting on the mounting arm (4) during the fitting operation by measuring force between the guide arrangement (11) having a guide carriage (13) and the mounting arm (4) by being mounted between the guide arrangement (11) and the mounting arm (4) to measure force with which the mounting arm (4) abuts against the guide carriage (13).
