[0044] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] exist Figure 1-7 In the illustrated embodiment, the present invention provides a technical solution: a sewing device, comprising a fabric feeding platform 11 and a multi-needle sewing machine 2, the multi-needle sewing machine 2 being disposed at the tail end of the fabric feeding platform 11. The fabric is a long, uncut strip of fabric, fed by conveyor rollers (not shown in the figure) located at the front and rear ends, and a handle needs to be sewn on one side.

[0046] The pressing conveyor line 1 is located at the bottom edge of the fabric conveying platform 11, and the flanging plate 13 is located at the front end of the pressing conveyor line 1. It is used to convey the fabric after flanging. The edge of the fabric exceeds the fabric conveying platform 11 and bends. The flanging plate 13 presses the bend to form a flanging. The belt of the pressing conveyor line 1 is driven by a motor. The flanging part of the fabric is clamped by the pressing conveyor line 1 and the fabric conveying platform 11 and conveyed synchronously with the fabric.

[0047] Two sets of staggered belt-making devices 3 are provided on one side of the pressing production line 1. The belt-making device 3 includes:

[0048] Clamping assembly 35: Located on one side of the front end of the pressing production line 1, used to fix the material belt 4. The clamping assembly 35 clamps the material belt 4 by driving the pressure plate with a cylinder, and the material belt 4 is fed by an external material belt roll.

[0049] Cutting assembly 34: Located on one side of the clamping assembly 35, it is used to cut the material strip. The cutting assembly 34 is moved towards the tail end of the clamping assembly 35 by a push cylinder 36 located at its tail. The bottom of the cutting assembly 34 has a slide rail slidably connected to it. The cutting assembly 34 consists of a gripper cylinder and two sets of intersecting cutters. The intersecting cutters are connected in the middle by a rotating shaft, forming a cross shape. The two sets of cutters change between an open state and a shearing state via the gripper cylinder, mimicking the shape of scissors.

[0050] Clamping cylinder 31: Located behind the clamping assembly 35, it is used to clamp the end of the material belt and pull it along the conveying direction of the pressing production line 1. The pressing end is equipped with a pressure plate and is adapted to the material belt 4. The clamping cylinder 31 is driven to move by the transmission belt assembly 33. The tail end of the transmission belt assembly 33 is equipped with a first motor 32. The clamping cylinder 31 is slidably mounted on the track provided by the transmission belt assembly 33, and both ends of the clamping cylinder 31 are equipped with pulleys. The first motor 32 drives the pulleys to rotate, and the pulleys are wrapped with a belt. The belt is fixed to the clamping cylinder 31.

[0051] Bending and feeding mechanism 5: disposed between the clamping assembly 35 and the clamping cylinder 31;

[0052] The bending and feeding mechanism 5 includes: a first movable platform 53 movable towards the pressing production line 1; the first movable platform 53 is slidably mounted on a base 51 via a slide rail; the base 51 is fixed; and the first movable platform 53 is displaced towards the pressing production line 1 via a second cylinder 52; a track is provided on the base 51; the first movable platform 53 is slidably mounted on the track; a liftable lifting frame 55 is provided on the first movable platform 53; a third cylinder 54 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the first movable platform 53; the bottom end of the lifting frame 55 is connected to the output end of the third cylinder 54; two sets of clamping assemblies are provided above the lifting frame 55; the two sets of clamping assemblies are arranged along the feeding direction of the material belt; the two sets of clamping assemblies... The clamping components are rotatable. After clamping the material strip, the two sets of clamping components rotate in opposite directions, bending both ends of the material strip by 90 degrees and feeding it to the fabric edge between the pressing line 1 and the fabric conveying platform 11 for combined conveying. The strip is then sewn by a multi-needle sewing machine 2. Furthermore, the clamping components include a rotary motor 56 and a clamping top plate 57. The rotary motor 56 is fixed on the lifting frame 55, and the clamping top plate 57 is located at the output end of the rotary motor 56. Below the clamping top plate 57 is a liftable lifting clamping plate assembly 58, which is driven to rise and fall by a cylinder. The clamping points of the clamping top plate 57 and the lifting clamping assembly 58 are located on the extension line of their rotating shafts. Figure 4 As shown.

[0053] like Figure 7 As shown, the multi-needle sewing machine 2 is located at the end of the conveyor belt of the pressing production line 1. A pressing belt 12 is provided at the sewing point of the multi-needle sewing machine 2. The pressing belt 12 is divided into upper and lower sections, driven by a motor. The two belts are located outside the fabric feed platform 11 and are used to press the fabric hem and the fabric strip. The sewing point of the multi-needle sewing machine 2 is on the end face of the fabric feed platform 11. A notch is also provided at the sewing point on the end face of the fabric feed platform 11. A fixed platform is located at the lower end of the notch, used to transfer the fabric hem and the fabric strip to the sewing point on the upper end face of the fabric feed platform 11. The two pressing belts 12 are used to press the area behind the fabric sewing point (the hem and the end of the fabric strip). As the fabric moves, the multi-needle sewing machine 2 sews the fabric hem and the fabric strip together, achieving the stitching.

[0054] The specific working principle of the present invention will be described in detail below: The fabric passes through the fabric conveying platform 11, and the edge of the fabric is turned over by the edge-turning plate 13. The edge is then conveyed synchronously by the pressing production line 1 and the fabric conveying platform 11 to the belt making device 3. The end of the material belt 4 enters the clamping assembly 35. The clamping cylinder 31 is driven to move by the first motor 32 in conjunction with the transmission belt assembly 33. The clamping cylinder 31 pulls the material belt 4 from the tail end of the clamping assembly 35 and drives it to move towards the first motor 32. When it is pulled to a specified distance (i.e., the length of a single handle belt), the clamping assembly 35 clamps the material belt. The second cylinder 52 and the third cylinder 54 drive the two clamping assemblies to move back and forth and rise and fall towards the pressing production line 1, so as to place the material belt between the clamping top plate 57 and the lifting clamping plate assembly 58 and clamp it.

[0055] The cylinder 36 drives the cutter assembly 34 to cut the material strip 4 at the tail end of the clamping assembly 35. The rotary motor 56 drives the two clamping assemblies to rotate 90 degrees in opposite directions, bending the material strip. Both ends of the material strip are perpendicular to the pressing line 1, and part of the material strip ends are exposed outside the clamping point. Through the push of the second cylinder 52 and the lifting frame 55, the two ends of the material strip are placed under the fabric with the flange between the pressing line 1 and the fabric feeding platform 11. The lifting clamping plate assembly 58 releases the handle belt and resets. The bending and feeding mechanism 5 resets as a whole. The pressing line 1 drives the flanged fabric and handle belt to be transported to the multi-needle sewing machine 2. After reaching the multi-needle sewing machine 2, the two pressing belt lines 12 press the flanged part and the handle belt and move towards the multi-needle sewing machine 2. The fabric and handle belt are transferred to the top of the fabric feeding platform 11 through the notch on the end face of the fabric feeding platform 11 and sewn by the multi-needle sewing machine 2 to achieve uninterrupted sewing.

[0056] The belt feeding device 3 is equipped with at least two belts to match the speed of fabric conveying and improve work efficiency.

[0057] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
