Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of flat bed sewing machines, in particular, to an intelligent flat bed sewing machine for knitted garment production. BACKGROUND

[0002] Flat bed sewing machines are indispensable key equipment in the field of knitted garment production, and their performance and efficiency are directly related to the overall output and quality of garment manufacturing. However, existing conventional flat bed sewing machines mainly rely on manual operation by workers in terms of operation, and the level of automation and intelligence is generally not high.

[0003] In actual production, workers need to place the fabric to be sewn on the needle plate and skillfully guide the fabric with both hands to move it according to the predetermined sewing trajectory. For straight-line sewing, this operation is relatively simple, but when curved or arc edge sewing of garment patterns is required, the difficulty of operation increases significantly. The operator needs to coordinate both hands to constantly adjust the direction and speed of the fabric to match the sewing rhythm of the machine needle, which not only requires a high degree of skill from the operator, but also has low production efficiency and is difficult to ensure the consistency of product quality.

[0004] In addition, in the process of continuous sewing for a long time, the breakage of sewing thread or the depletion of thread cone is a common situation. Once such a situation occurs, the equipment must be stopped for manual thread changing and threading operation by the worker. Especially the needle threading step, which requires threading the fine thread through the tiny needle hole, is not only tedious and time-consuming, but also a test of the worker's eyesight. Frequent stoppages and manual interventions seriously affect the continuity and overall efficiency of the production line. At the same time, the existing equipment generally lacks real-time monitoring capability for the use state of the sewing thread, and cannot predict that the thread will soon run out or immediately alarm and stop after the thread breaks, which can easily lead to the production of defective products due to empty sewing.

[0026] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second" and the like are only used for differentiation in description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0027] As shown in Figure 1 , it shows an intelligent flat sewing machine for knitting garment production in an embodiment of the present application, mainly comprising a machine frame 1, a flat sewing machine body 2 mounted on the top wall of the machine frame 1, two intelligent mechanical arms 3 for grabbing and assisting in placing cloth and thread, a needle plate mechanism 4 cooperating with the needle of the flat sewing machine body 2, and further comprising: An auxiliary cloth feeding assembly 6 is used to assist in feeding cloth during sewing, especially when sewing curves, and can cooperate with the needle to rotate synchronously.

[0028] A rotating assembly 7 is used to drive the auxiliary cloth feeding assembly 6 to deflect at a precise angle.

[0029] An auxiliary threading mechanism 8 is used to quickly complete the threading operation after thread breakage or thread change in cooperation with the intelligent mechanical arm 3.

[0030] A bobbin switching assembly 10 is used to store multiple standby bobbins and automatically switch when needed. The assembly is fixed on the top wall of the machine frame 1 through a connecting frame 9.

[0031] A pressure detection assembly 11 is installed on the bobbin switching assembly 10 and is used to monitor the tension of the sewing thread in real time to determine whether thread breakage or thread running out is about to occur.

[0032] As shown in Figures 3-6 , it shows the auxiliary cloth feeding assembly 6 and the rotating assembly 7 in an embodiment of the present application.

[0033] In order to provide a rotation space for the auxiliary fabric feeding assembly 6, a fan-shaped deflection groove 5 is formed in the rear side of the top wall of the machine frame 1, and the main body of the auxiliary fabric feeding assembly 6 is rotationally arranged in the deflection groove 5.

[0034] The auxiliary fabric feeding assembly 6 comprises a hollow rotating plate 61. One end of the rotating plate 61 is fixedly connected with a rotating sleeve 66 which rotationally penetrates the top wall of the machine frame 1 through a bearing and is sleeved outside the needle plate mechanism 4. This design enables the entire auxiliary fabric feeding assembly 6 to rotate around the center of the needle plate mechanism 4 (i.e. the needle falling point).

[0035] In the inner cavity of the rotating plate 61, a lead screw 62 is rotationally arranged. A No. 1 motor 63 is fixed on the outer wall of the rotating plate 61, and the output shaft of the motor is connected with the lead screw 62 for driving the lead screw 62 to rotate forward and backward. A lead screw nut 64 which is matched with the lead screw 62 is threadedly connected on the lead screw 62.

[0036] A pressing mechanism 65 is arranged above the rotating plate 61 for applying slight pressure to the fabric to assist fabric feeding. As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The top wall of the rotating plate 61 is symmetrically provided with two parallel sliding grooves 12, and corresponding limiting through grooves 13 are formed between the sliding grooves 12 and the inner cavity of the rotating plate 61.

[0037] The pressing mechanism 65 comprises two symmetrically arranged sliding blocks 651 which are respectively slidingly arranged in the corresponding sliding grooves 12. Each sliding block 651 is fixedly connected with the side wall of the lead screw nut 64 through a connecting plate 652, and the connecting plate 652 is slidingly arranged in the corresponding limiting through groove 13. In this way, when the No. 1 motor 63 drives the lead screw 62 to rotate, the lead screw nut 64 will move axially along the lead screw 62, and then drive the two sliding blocks 651 to synchronously move in the sliding grooves 12 through the connecting plate 652.

[0038] A vertical plate 653 is fixed between the top walls of the two sliding blocks 651. An installation plate 654 is fixed on one side of the top wall of the vertical plate 653, and an electric push rod 655 is fixedly arranged on the installation plate 654. The movable end of the electric push rod 655 penetrates the installation plate 654 downward and is fixedly connected with a pressing plate 656.

[0039] In operation, the intelligent mechanical arm 3 places the fabric on the needle plate mechanism 4. The electric push rod 655 is extended to drive the pressing plate 656 to descend and press the fabric with appropriate pressure. During straight sewing, the No. 1 motor 63 can be started to drive the pressing mechanism 65 to move forward and backward as a whole, thereby assisting the feed dog of the lockstitch machine body 2 to convey the fabric.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 4The rotating assembly 7 is installed on the bottom wall of the frame 1. It comprises a housing 71, in which a second motor 72 is fixed. A driving gear 73 is fixed on the power shaft of the second motor 72. The driving gear 73 is engaged with an external gear ring 74. The external gear ring 74 is fixed on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 66. The bottom end of the needle plate mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the housing 71, so as to ensure the stability of the position.

[0041] When it is necessary to sew a curve, the control system starts the second motor 72 to drive the driving gear 73 to rotate, so as to drive the external gear ring 74 to rotate. Since the external gear ring 74 is fixedly connected with the rotating sleeve 66, the entire auxiliary cloth feeding assembly 6 will deflect around the needle plate mechanism 4 to guide the cloth to be sewn according to the preset curve track, so that high-precision curve sewing automation is realized.

[0042] As shown in Figures 1-2 , it shows the auxiliary threading mechanism 8 in an embodiment of the application.

[0043] The auxiliary threading mechanism 8 comprises a support 81 fixed on the side of the lockstitch machine body 2 close to the needle. The bottom end of the support 81 is fixed with a suction pipe 82, and the pipe opening of the suction pipe 82 is opposite to the rear of the threading hole of the needle. The suction pipe 82 is connected with an external air pump (not shown in the figure) through an electromagnetic valve.

[0044] When it is necessary to automatically thread, the intelligent mechanical arm 3 will clamp the sewing thread head and accurately send it to the front of the threading hole of the needle. At this time, the control system opens the electromagnetic valve, the air pump is started, and the suction pipe 82 generates strong suction force to instantly suck the thread head through the needle hole, so that the threading action is quickly completed.

[0045] As shown in Figures 7-9 , it shows the thread cylinder switching assembly 10 and the pressure detection assembly 11 in an embodiment of the application.

[0046] The thread cylinder switching assembly 10 is used to realize automatic replacement of the thread cylinder. It comprises a base 101 fixed on the frame 1 through the connecting frame 9. A hexagonal seat 102 is rotatably installed on the top wall of the base 101. A thread cylinder insertion rod 103 is perpendicularly fixed on each of the six top corners of the hexagonal seat 102, for inserting a sewing thread cylinder. A first guide ring 104 is also fixed at each corner, for guiding the sewing thread on the corresponding thread cylinder.

[0047] The bottom wall of the base 101 is provided with a driving mechanism 105 for driving the hexagonal seat 102 to intermittently rotate. As Figure 7As shown, the driving mechanism 105 adopts a Geneva mechanism. It includes a mounting shell 1051 fixed on the bottom wall of the base 101, and a partition plate 1052 is arranged in the shell. The bottom of the mounting shell 1051 is fixed with a No. 3 motor 1053, the power shaft of which penetrates the partition plate 1052 upward and is fixed with a driving disc 1054. A Geneva wheel 1055 cooperating with the driving disc 1054 is rotatably arranged on the top wall of the partition plate 1052. The mounting shaft of the Geneva wheel 1055 penetrates the bottom wall of the hexagonal seat 102 upward and is fixedly connected with the center of the hexagonal seat 102.

[0048] When it is necessary to switch the bobbin, the No. 3 motor 1053 is started to drive the driving disc 1054 to rotate. The driving pin on the driving disc 1054 is clamped into the groove of the Geneva wheel 1055 to drive the Geneva wheel 1055 to rotate through a fixed angle (60 degrees in this case), so that the hexagonal seat 102 also accurately rotates 60 degrees to switch the next full-load bobbin to the working position.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 9 The pressure detection assembly 11 is used for monitoring the tension of the sewing thread. It includes a sleeve 111 fixed on the front end of the base 101 through a connecting rod 112 and located on the thread path between the current working bobbin and the lockstitch machine body 2. A stand 113 is fixed on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the sleeve 111, and a pressure sensor 114 is fixed on the top end of the stand 113. An active column 115 is slidably sleeved on the top end of the sleeve 111, and a No. 2 guide ring 118 for guiding the sewing thread is fixed on the top end of the active column 115. A limiting plate 116 is fixed on the bottom end of the active column 115, and the limiting plate 116 can slide up and down in the sleeve 111. A spring 117 is arranged between the limiting plate 116 and the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the sleeve 111 to provide upward supporting force.

[0050] In work, the sewing thread drawn from the current working bobbin passes through the No. 1 guide ring 104, then passes through the No. 2 guide ring 118, and then is sent to the lockstitch machine body 2. The tension of the sewing thread itself pulls the active column 115 downward, so that the limiting plate 116 at the bottom of the active column 115 presses the pressure sensor 114 downward. The pressure sensor 114 transmits the pressure signal in real time to the control system.

[0051] Working principle: the overall working process of the present application includes: Preparation stage: install multiple full-load bobbins on the bobbin inserting rod 103 of the hexagonal seat 102. The intelligent mechanical arm 3 cooperates with the auxiliary threading mechanism 8 to complete the initial threading.

[0052] Sewing stage: the smart mechanical arm 3 places the cloth, and the electric push rod 655 drives the pressing plate 656 to press the cloth. The lockstitch machine starts to work. When sewing straight lines, the auxiliary cloth feeding assembly 6 can assist in feeding the cloth; when sewing curves, the rotating assembly 7 drives the auxiliary cloth feeding assembly 6 to deflect, guiding the cloth to complete the sewing of complex trajectories.

[0053] Monitoring and switching: during the sewing process, the pressure detection assembly 11 continuously monitors the sewing thread tension. When the thread breaks (the tension disappears instantaneously) or the thread spool is about to run out (the tension abnormally increases), the pressure sensor 114 sends a signal.

[0054] Automatic thread changing: after the control system receives the signal, the lockstitch machine stops immediately. The No. 3 motor 1053 is started to drive the hexagonal seat 102 to rotate 60 degrees, switching a brand new thread spool to the working position (when the thread spool is about to run out, the hexagonal seat 102 will automatically break the sewing thread during the rotating process).

[0055] Automatic threading: after the thread changing is completed, the smart mechanical arm 3 automatically grabs the new thread end and cooperates with the auxiliary threading mechanism 8 to quickly complete the threading.

[0056] Resuming work: after the threading is completed, the device automatically resumes the sewing work.

[0057] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, and they should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
