Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer embroidery machines, and more particularly to a computer embroidery machine with a dynamic holding mechanism and a working method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The working principle of the computer embroidery machine is that the upper thread and the lower thread cooperate to finally draw the embroidery pattern on the fabric. At present, when the embroidery machine starts embroidery, it is necessary to bring the embroidery upper thread into the shuttle box through the needle, and the rotary shuttle separates the upper thread and cooperates with the lower thread to tie a knot, and finally realizes the embroidery action. However, the embroidery action of the existing embroidery machine has the following defects: 1. When embroidering, if the upper thread is not long enough or the tension is not enough, it is easy for the first stitch to not be in place, and it is easy to not be able to bring up the lower thread, which will cause the upper thread and the lower thread to be unable to form a knot, and finally lead to the reduction of the quality of the embroidery pattern; 2. The embroidery machine will not be in place if the needle is not in place, which will cause missed stitches or it will take several stitches to bring up the lower thread, which will lead to reduced efficiency and quality.

[0003] Patent Zl201220744040.3 discloses a thread catcher for an embroidery machine, comprising an electromagnet and a return spring, characterized in that the thread catcher for the embroidery machine also comprises a thread catcher spring and a drive plate, the thread catcher spring is connected to the drive plate, the drive plate is connected to the electromagnet, a waist-shaped spring hole is arranged at the top of the thread catcher spring, and a return spring is arranged on the drive plate.

[0035] The technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a computer embroidery machine 10 with a dynamic holding mechanism, including: a shuttle box body 100 and a dynamic holding mechanism 200. The computer embroidery machine 10 also includes other mechanisms (not shown in the figure), such as an embroidery machine head, etc. The embroidery machine head controls the movement of the embroidery needle, and the prior art in this field will not be described in detail here.

[0037] The shuttle box body 100 includes a shuttle box 1000 having a needle plate 1010, and a fixed knife 1100 and a movable knife 1200 disposed in the shuttle box 1000. The needle plate 1010 is provided with a needle plate hole 1011. The movable knife 1200 can rotate to open and close relative to the fixed knife 1100, and the movable knife 1200 can complete the thread cutting action when it is closed relative to the fixed knife 1100. The needle plate hole 1011 on the needle plate 1010 allows the embroidery needle to enter and exit the shuttle box 1000 for embroidery.

[0038] The dynamic holding mechanism 200 is disposed in the shuttle box 1000 , and includes a holding piece 2100 , a paddle 2200 , a torsion spring 2300 , and a mounting pin 2400 located on the back side of the needle plate 1010 .

[0039] The mounting pin 2400 is fixedly connected to the back of the needle plate 1010, and the paddle 2200 is rotatably sleeved on the mounting pin 2400. The paddle 2200 is connected to the retaining plate 2100, and a center hole 2110 is provided at one end of the retaining plate 2100. The mounting pin 2400 is used to mount the paddle 2200, position the paddle 2200, and limit the radial movement of the paddle 2200 along the mounting pin 2400. The mounting pin 2400 can be integrally formed with the needle plate 1010, or the mounting pin 2400 and the needle plate 1010 can be separately manufactured and fixedly connected together by welding, threaded connection, etc. The paddle 2200 is used to drive the retaining plate 2100 to move, and the center hole 2110 is used for the embroidery needle to pass through when starting the first stitch.

[0040] When the movable knife 1200 is opened at a first angle relative to the fixed knife 1100, the movable knife 1200 is connected to the paddle 2200. When the movable knife 1200 continues to be opened relative to the fixed knife 1100, the movable knife 1200 drives the paddle 2200 to rotate around the mounting pin 2400. At the same time, the paddle 2200 drives the retaining plate 2100 to make linear motion toward the needle plate hole 1011, until the movable knife 1200 is opened at a second angle relative to the fixed knife 1100, the center hole 2110 is aligned with the needle plate hole 1011, so that the embroidery needle can pass the surface thread through the needle plate hole 1011 and the center hole 2110 and bring it into the shuttle box 1000 when starting to embroider. The second angle is greater than the first angle. The first angle is the angle at which the movable knife 1200 rotates from the position closed with the fixed knife 1100 to the position connected with the paddle 2200, and the second angle is the angle at which the movable knife 1200 rotates from the position closed with the fixed knife 1100 to the position where the center hole 2110 is aligned with the needle plate hole 1011.

[0041] The torsion spring 2300 is arranged between the needle plate 1010 and the paddle 2200 to provide a restoring force to the paddle 2200. After the embroidery needle starts to rise and leave the needle plate 1010, the movable knife 1200 moves back to a position where it opens at a first angle relative to the fixed knife 1100, and the force exerted by the movable knife 1200 on the paddle 2200 is cancelled. The paddle 2200 rotates under the restoring force of the torsion spring 2300, and drives the retaining plate 2100 to retract and reset in a linear motion. The upper thread end is pulled and pressed against the back of the needle plate 1010 by the retaining plate 2100, thereby improving the success rate of starting and tying a knot in the embroidery machine 10 and improving the embroidery efficiency.

[0042] The embroidery machine 10 provided by the embodiment of the present invention drives the retaining piece 2100 of the dynamic retaining mechanism 200 to make reciprocating linear motion through the existing movable knife 1200 of the shuttle box body 100, and does not need to set up a special driving mechanism to drive the retaining piece 2100 to capture the surface thread, thereby eliminating the need for an additional driving mechanism, and having a simple structure, without requiring additional driving costs, and thus reducing costs. At the same time, when the embroidery needle starts to sew, the retaining piece 2100 of the dynamic retaining mechanism 200 can pull and press the surface thread end onto the back of the needle plate 1010, thereby improving the success rate of starting to sew and knotting of the embroidery machine 10, and improving the embroidery efficiency.
