Embroidery bead feeding apparatus and method

Abstract

The invention discloses an embroidery bead feeding apparatus, which comprises a bead guiding pipe for guiding embroidery beads to fall down, a time sharing clamping mechanism, an embroidery bead separation mechanism, a feeding mechanism and an automatic feeding mechanism, wherein the time sharing clamping mechanism comprises a plurality of clampers, and a one-way sleeve drives the mutually-spaced clampers to carry out time sharing separation and enclosing under clamping motor driving, such that the bead guiding pipe is always positioned on a fixation position. The present invention further provides an embroidery bead feeding method. According to the present invention, the embroidery beads are conveyed to processing positions one by one through the time sharing clamping mechanism, the embroidery bead separation mechanism and the automatic feeding mechanism so as to achieve automatic embroidery bead feeding. The apparatus has characteristics of ingenious structure, high production rate, high automation degree, easy installation and maintenance, low processing cost and high practical values.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device suitable for machine embroidery, in particular to a bead feeding device and method. Background technique [0002] Adding embroidered beads on the fabric is deeply loved by consumers because of its good ornamental value and strong decorative effect. [0003] Currently on the market, one-piece bead belts are used to embroider beads, and then cut. The material of the beads is relatively low-grade. If glass beads are used, the above-mentioned bead belt technology cannot be used; or more complicated techniques are used. Glue the beads on the dissolvable paper in an orderly manner, and then machine embroidery. [0004] For some high-end loose beads, some manufacturers think that the machine cannot identify the position of the middle threading hole due to its shape characteristics, so machine embroidery cannot be realized, so that the need to add embroidery beads on the fabric can only be solved by hand sewing. It is genera...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

It can be positioned through pipeline transportation, and the rolling of embroidered beads cannot be controlled during the transportation process, so the orientation cannot be guaranteed; if there is a central guiding mechanism, the problem of positioning and orientation can be solved, but the guiding mechanism only works when there is a guiding section; and the center guiding The mechanism is usually a closed mechanism or a semi-closed (connected) structure, and the same problem is still faced in the part without a guiding mechanism. At present, no similar central guiding mechanism has been found to be applied to the bead embroidery mechanism.
