    Cone Under Picking

    The under picking mechanism uses a bottom shaft connected to two nose cams 180 degrees out of phase to drive the picking action. As the bottom shaft rotates due to input from the crank shaft, the nose cams cause horizontal picking shafts to move vertically. This vertical motion is transferred through lug straps and picking sticks to push the picker and shuttle from one shuttle box to the other, completing the picking process. On the return rotation of the bottom shaft, the opposite picking shaft activates to return the shuttle to the first box.

    Class note on under picking mechanism

    Supplied by: Md Samsu Alam


    Q.) Working principle of under picking mechanism.

    Working Principle: In power loom, motion for picking is come from bottom shaft. On each
    end of bottom shaft one nose cam is attached. These two cams are mounted on the shaft as 180°
    to each other. On each side of the loom there will be one picking mechanism. The bottom shaft
    received motion from crank shaft through a gear drive mechanism. The ratio of number of teeth
    on gear attached to crank shaft to bottom shaft remained as 1:2, as a result in each loom cycle
    bottom shaft make a half rotation or we can say r.p.m. ratio of crank shaft to bottom shaft is
    2:1.

    In under picking the picking shafts situated horizontally and picking sticks will swing
    vertically. The picker is slide over the spindle in shuttle box. Due to the half rotation of bottom
    shaft the nose cam make half rotation. The cone follower which attached with horizontal
    picking shaft will be displaced vertically to down wards direction. This causes rotation of
    picking shaft. The lug strap which attached with the extended ‘L’ portion of picking shaft apply
    a force in picking stick. The picking stick is fulcrum at the bottom will be swing inner ward in
    the loom, as a result the picker apply force on shuttle and shuttle travel from one shuttle box to
    other.

    On the other half rotation of bottom shaft the other picker which attached with second
    picking shaft will came in action, as a result shuttle fly from second shuttle box to first shuttle
    box.

    N.B.: 1) The picker is mounted on picking stick loosely.


    2) Rising and lowering of lug strap reduces and increases the shuttle velocity, respectively.
    2) Cone under picking is generally used in automatic loom.
