[0024] The purpose of this invention is to provide a 3D sewing master fixture structure for automotive seat sheets to solve the problems existing in the prior art.
[0025] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] This embodiment provides a 3D sewing main clamp structure for automotive seat sheet material, as shown in Figures 1-3. It includes an upper main clamp 1 and a lower main clamp 2. The upper main clamp 1 is slidably disposed below the upper support 4 via a connecting slide rail 3. The lower main clamp 2 is fixed above the lower support 5. The upper main clamp 1 is provided with an upper needle suction cup 6, and the lower main clamp 2 is provided with a lower needle suction cup 7. The upper needle suction cup 6 and the lower needle suction cup 7 cooperate with each other.
[0028] In one implementation, a lifting cylinder 8 is provided between the upper main clamp 1 and the upper support 4, which is used for the lifting and micro-movement of the upper main clamp 1.
[0029] As one implementation method, a buffer 9 is provided between the upper main clamp 1 and the upper support 4, which can play a buffering and shock-absorbing role during the lifting process.
[0030] In one embodiment, a lifting position fine-tuning bolt 10 is provided between the upper main clamp 1 and the upper support 4, which can finely adjust the lifting position of the upper main clamp 1.
[0031] In one implementation, the upper main clamp 1 is connected to the upper needle suction cup 6 via the upper slide rail 11.
[0032] In one implementation, the lower main clamp 2 is connected to the lower needle suction cup 7 via the lower slide rail 12, and the lower slide rail 12 is connected to the lower main clamp 2 via the cylinder 13, thereby realizing the independent lifting and lowering of the lower needle suction cup 7.
[0033] As one implementation method, a linear bearing 14 is provided between the lower slide rail 12 and the lower main clamp 2, which can guide the lifting and lowering.
[0034] As one implementation, a finger cylinder 15 is provided on the lower slide rail 12 for locking and securing after the slide rail is positioned.
[0035] As one implementation, the lower slide rail 12 is provided with a suction cup 16 for positioning the upper sheet material after it has been placed.
[0036] This invention provides a 3D sewing main clamp structure for automotive seat panels. Its working principle is as follows: Upper and lower panels are gradually placed onto the lower main clamp 2. The needle cylinder of the lower needle suction cup extends, and the needle is obliquely inserted into the sponge body of the lower panel to lock it in place. Simultaneously, the upper panel is placed behind the lower panel, and the suction cup 16 clamps and locks the upper panel. The upper main clamp 1 moves to the rear directly above the lower main clamp 2. The lifting cylinder 8 of the upper main clamp 1 extends, and the upper main clamp 1 descends. The needle of the upper needle suction cup 6 of the upper main clamp 1 extends, and the needle is obliquely inserted into the sponge body of the lower panel to lock it in place. When the vacuum pressure is released from plate 16, the lifting cylinder 8 of the upper main clamp 1 retracts, and the upper main clamp 1 is raised to its final position, completing the gripping of the upper and lower sheets. During the sewing process, the cylinders of the needle-punching suction cups on the sewn sheets are depressurized one by one, releasing the locking state, effectively solving the problem of sheet twisting and tearing caused by different trajectories. In particular, the cylinders of the needle-punching suction cups, after closing the needle and descending, can further solve the problem of interference between the sewn sheets and unsewn parts during the sewing process. For sheets of different shapes, the slide rail position is adjusted sequentially according to the sewing edge of the sheet, and the finger cylinder 15 is locked. The overall structural design ensures the sewing process and has stronger compatibility.
[0037] This invention has illustrated its principles and implementation methods using specific examples. The descriptions of these embodiments are merely illustrative of the method and its core ideas; furthermore, those skilled in the art will recognize that modifications may be made to the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the principles of this invention. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as limiting the invention.
