Title:
BRAIDING MACHINE AND COMPOSING METHOD THEREFOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/090925
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a braiding machine and composing method therefor that can reliably close branched parts even when switching closed paths and can reliably prevent offsetting among internal cores inside combined braids.
The present invention carries out an independent braid composing step in which two independent braids each having internal cores are composed by moving each of a plurality of carriers in each of two, left and right, closed paths, a combined braid composition step in which a single combined braid wherein two independent braids having internal cores are divided and combined by moving across closed paths (33, 34) formed substantially as a figure 8 while the carriers cross from one closed path to the other at crossing parts (35, 36) for the closed paths, and a switching step that switches, respectively, to the combined braid composing step when the independent braids have been composed to a required length by the independent braid composing step and to the independent braid composing step when a combined braid of a required length has been composed by the combined braid composing step.
