Abstract: An apparatus is described for needling a non-woven material with a support (3) which receives at least one needleboard (1) and is drivable in a reciprocating fashion both in the needle-penetration direction (5) as well as the direction of passage (6) of the non-woven material and on which are coupled the connecting rods (10) of two oppositely drivable eccentric drives (8, 9) for the drive in the needle-penetration direction (5) and on which there acts at least one additional eccentric drive (12).

Abstract: An apparatus is described for needling a non-woven (2) with at least one support (6) for a needleboard (4) held in a frame (12) and with two parallel eccentric drives (7, 8) which are disposed between the frame (12) and the needleboard support (6) and are made of two parallel eccentric shafts (9 and 10) each for the needleboard drive in the needling direction on the one hand and in the direction of passage of the non-woven on the other hand. In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that an intermediate support (13) is provided between the needleboard support (6) and the frame (12) and that the intermediate support (13) is guided with respect to the frame (12) and the needleboard support (6) with respect to the intermediate support (13) in circular paths by way of the two eccentric drives (7, 8) which are disposed on the one hand between the frame (12) and the intermediate support (13) and on the other hand between the intermediate support (13) and the needleboard support (6).

Abstract: An apparatus is described for needling a non-woven material with a support (1) for at least one needleboard (3) with at least two eccentric drives (7, 8) which are drivably connected with the support (1) via connecting rods (9, 10) and with a device for adjusting the mutual angular position of the two eccentric drives (7, 8). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the device for adjusting the mutual angular position of the two eccentric drives (7, 8) consists of a superposition gear (17) in a gear train (11) for the drive connection of the two eccentric drives (7, 8).

Abstract: There is described a needle board (1) for a device for needling a web, comprising a board body (2) of a light metal alloy, in particular a magnesium-aluminum alloy, and a plastic coating (3) cast onto the board body (2) on the side of the board facing the needle tips. To create advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the board body (2) preferably consisting of a cross-cut extruded section has undercut grooves (7) at its edges on the side of the board covered by the plastic coating (3), where the plastic coating (3) cast thereon positively fills the undercut grooves (7).

Abstract: An apparatus is described for needling a non-woven (2) with at least one support (6) for a needleboard (4) held in a frame (12) and with two parallel eccentric drives (7, 8) which are disposed between the frame (12) and the needleboard support (6) and are made of two parallel eccentric shafts (9 and 10) each for the needleboard drive in the needling direction on the one hand and in the direction of passage of the non-woven on the other hand.

Abstract: The description relates to a facility for needling of fleece with at least one needle board driven to and fro in stitching direction, which can be additionally driven in pendulum fashion in fleece feed direction (15) by means of an eccentric drive, which is provided with a connecting rod (3) articulated to a rocker arm (4) and a connecting pitman (8) to the needle board effective on this connecting rod assembly. To be able to easily adjust the rocking amplitude of the needle board in fleece feed direction (15) it is suggested that the swivel bearing (5) of the rocker arm (4) is seated on a rotatable crank arm (6) and that, for adjustment of the rocking amplitude of the connecting pitman (8), the neutral rocking position of the rocker arm (4) is adjustable via the crank arm (6) between an end position essentially running in the direction of the connecting pitman (8) and an end position running transverse thereto.

Abstract: The description relates to a facility for needling of fleece with at least one needle board (2) that can be driven to and fro in stitching direction (4) by means of pushing rods (3) borne displaceable in one guide sleeve (10) each, and with an additional drive (11) reciprocating in fleece feed direction (9) and effective on the movably borne guide sleeves (10), which is equipped with two parallel eccentric shafts (12, 13). To achieve simple constructional features it is suggested to bear the guide sleeves (10) via two brackets (16, 17) on the eccentrics (18) of the two equidirectionally driven eccentric shafts (12, 13), and to connect them non-rotatable with at least one of these brackets (16, 17).

Abstract: An apparatus which serves to needle a nonwoven web and comprises at least one needle beam for carrying at least one needle board, a rocker, which carries the needle beam and comprises at least two parallel arms, which are pivoted to a frame, and a slider-crank mechanism, which is coupled to the rocker or the needle beam. To permit an adjustment of the lift of the needle beam it is proposed that the slider-crank mechanism is adapted to be pivoted to the needle beam or the rocker at different distances from the pivotal axis of the rocker.
