Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of single-side suturing, and in particular relates to a single-side suturing device. Background Art

[0002] In the past two decades, fiber composite materials have developed rapidly. For example, carbon fiber composite materials are widely used in various fields, such as aerospace, military, automobile, shipbuilding, and construction industries, due to their excellent heat resistance, high-strength impact resistance, and corrosion resistance. The traditional production of three-dimensional composite preform products mainly adopts bonding, manual weaving and other technologies, but bonding can hardly ensure that the mechanical properties between layers do not change, while manual weaving has low efficiency, high labor costs, and poor product consistency. Traditional bilateral sewing technology requires operations on both sides of the fabric, which makes the sewing of preforms in various occasions limited to specific shapes and limited spatial position requirements.

[0003] At present, more and more single-sided suturing operations are performed using single-sided suturing equipment, but most of the single-sided suturing equipment in the prior art adopts a double-needle mechanism design. For the design of the double-needle mechanism, both the hook thread mechanism and the lead thread mechanism are driven by a crank-connecting rod mechanism. However, due to the singleness of the movement of the crank-connecting rod mechanism, it is difficult to ensure the adjustability of the "two needle intersection" position deviation while the hook thread mechanism and the lead thread mechanism achieve a larger working stroke, which greatly increases the coordination error of the mechanism design. Therefore, it is necessary to repeat experiments to debug the appropriate positioning and mechanism size, which greatly reduces the cost and feasibility.

[0004] In addition, the single-sided sewing equipment in the prior art takes out the thread taking-up mechanism of the traditional double-sided sewing machine separately as an independent thread taking-up mechanism, and has a two-stage "thread release-thread retraction" with a quick return feature. Although the quick return feature can shorten the time of the idle return stroke and is conducive to improving production efficiency, the quick return feature will cause instability of the mechanism when it moves at high speed, thereby affecting the operating efficiency and accuracy of the mechanism.

[0010] Furthermore, a suture pressing frame is fixed to the bottom of the inner side plate, and suturing begins after the suture pressing frame presses the suture material on the suture material placement table.

[0012] The present invention also provides a suturing method of a single-side suturing device, comprising the following steps: S1, during the retreat of the guide needle after the suture is inserted into the sewing material, the hook needle pierces the sewing material; S2, the thread guide needle retreats to form a thread loop, and the hook hooks the thread loop; S3, the hook hook lifts the thread loop out of the sewing material surface, and at the same time, the thread guide needle retreats to above the sewing material, and then the hook hook and thread guide needle move one stitch length at the same time; S4, the thread guide needle pierces the sewing material again, and a new thread loop is formed in the process of retreating. The hook needle with the thread loop pierces the sewing material again, so that the thread loop falls off on the surface of the sewing material, and at the same time, the hook needle hooks the new thread loop; S5, the hook needle brings the new thread loop out of the sewing material surface and just passes through the center of the last thread loop that fell off, and at the same time, the thread guide needle retreats to the top of the sewing material; S6, tighten the suture while cooperating with the gear thread taking-up mechanism to supply thread, repeat the suturing actions of step S4 and step S5, and obtain a single-sided suture trace formed by multiple cycles of suturing operations.

[0016] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention performs sewing from one side of the processed product. Single-sided sewing has less requirements on the shape of the processed product and the space for sewing operation, and can meet the sewing requirements in various occasions, with a wide range of applicability.

[0017] (2) The thread hooking mechanism of the present invention adopts a disc-shaped cam design, replacing the more common single-motion crank slider mechanism, and timely adapts to the spatial motion coordination of the hook needle and the thread guide needle by adjusting the cam profile. When the synchronous belt is driven, the thread guide needle movement is first determined, and then the cam profile is changed to reach the correct spatial landing point of the hook needle. At the same time, the hook needle amplitude driven by the cam is small, and the thread hooking mechanism is highly stable, which greatly improves the success rate of suturing.

[0018] (3) The gear thread taking-up mechanism of the present invention is composed of a five-bar mechanism with a self-aligning gear. The thread path layout is realized by cooperating with a thread passing column and a thread clamp with tension control. The two-stage "thread releasing-thread rewinding" of the traditional thread taking-up mechanism with a quick return characteristic is transformed into a four-stage "thread releasing-thread rewinding-thread releasing-thread rewinding" without a quick return characteristic to meet the one-to-one correspondence of the thread supply intervals.

[0019] (4) The present invention solves the problem of poor forming quality of unilateral suture stitches. The formed chain stitches are smooth, reducing the occurrence of floating threads, broken threads, mis-hooking, and missed hooks. At the same time, the unilateral suture device has a compact structure, a wide range of applicability, a stable line structure, and a high suture success rate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the gear thread taking mechanism 3 includes a main gear 303 and a sub-gear 301 of equal size meshing, the main gear 303 is connected to the mounting end of the main gear connecting rod 304, the sub-gear 301 is connected to the mounting end of the sub-gear connecting rod 302, the free end of the main gear connecting rod 304 is connected to the free end of the sub-gear connecting rod 302 through a wire ring bolt 305, the wire ring bolt 305 is provided with a thread taking hole, and the wire ring bolt 305 is fastened by a wire ring fastening nut 311; the main gear connecting rod 304 and the sub-gear connecting rod 302 are of equal length; the main gear 303 is connected to the main gear connecting rod 304 through the main gear The shaft 309 is connected to the synchronous belt transmission mechanism 8, the main gear shaft 309 is set through the frame shell 9, and is connected to the inner side plate 20 and the rear side plate 21 of the frame shell 9 through the flange bearing seat I 312 and the bearing seat III 310 respectively; the sub-gear 301 is connected to the frame shell 9 through the sub-gear shaft 306, and the sub-gear shaft 306 is connected to the inner side plate 20 and the rear side plate 21 of the frame shell 9 through the flange bearing seat II 308 and the bearing seat IV 307 respectively; the main gear shaft 309 drives the main gear 303 to rotate, thereby driving the meshing sub-gear 301 to rotate.

[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, the transmission route of the present invention is: In the frame housing 9, the stepper motor 6 is installed on the rear side plate 21, and the thread hook shaft 107, the main gear shaft 309, the sub-gear shaft 306 and the lead shaft 208 are arranged in parallel.

[0041] The thread pressing frame 10 is fixed on the inner side plate 20 , and sewing begins after the thread pressing frame 10 presses the sewing materials on the sewing material placement table 7 .

[0042] The wire reel 5 is fixed on the inner plate 20 through the wire reel fixing plate 19; the first wire clamp 17, the first wire passing post 14, the second wire passing post 15, the second wire clamp 18 and the third wire passing post 16 are all installed on the inner plate 20, the wire reel 5 is located at the edge of the inner plate 20, the first wire clamp 17 is located between the wire reel 5 and the main gear 303, the first wire passing post 14 is located between the wire reel 5 and the sub-gear 301, the second wire passing post 15 is located between the main gear 303 and the first wire clamp 17 and is adjacent to the main gear 303, the second wire clamp 18 is located below the main gear 303, and the third wire passing post 16 is located below the second wire clamp 18.

[0044] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the present invention also provides a suturing method of a single-side suturing device, comprising the following steps: S1, the thread guide needle 207 carries the suture thread and pierces the sewing material. During the process of retreating a certain distance, the hook needle 106 pierces the sewing material; S2, the thread guide needle 207 retreats to form a thread loop, and the hook needle 106 hooks the middle thread loop; S3, the hook needle 106 lifts the thread loop out of the sewing material surface, and at the same time, the thread guide needle 207 retreats to the top of the sewing material; the hook needle 106 and the thread guide needle 207 move relative to each other by one stitch length at the same time; S4, the thread guide needle 207 pierces the sewing material again, forms a new thread loop in the process of retreating a certain distance, and the hook needle 106 with the thread loop pierces the sewing material again, causing the thread loop to fall off on the surface of the sewing material; at the same time, the hook needle 106 hooks the new thread loop; S5, the hook needle 106 brings the new thread loop out of the sewing material surface and just passes through the center of the last thread loop that has fallen off. At the same time, the thread guide needle 207 retreats to the top of the sewing material; S6, tighten the suture while cooperating with the gear thread take-up mechanism 3 to supply thread, and repeat the suturing actions of step S4 and step S5, so as to obtain a single-sided suture trace formed by multiple cycles of suturing operations.

[0045] like Fig. 9As shown, the single-sided suturing device of the present invention optimizes the change in thread quantity before and after the stitches. The theoretical thread quantity required for a single-cycle suturing process includes three stages: the thread guide needle 207 piercing the sewing material, the hook needle 106 hooking out the thread loop and the movement between the stitches, namely step S1 to step S3.

[0046] The theoretical thread requirement curve of the unilateral suture device is obtained by combining the three stages. The actual thread usage is measured through experiments. The upper dead point of the thread guide needle 207 is taken as the phase zero degree, and the thread supply of the pay-off drum 5 is recorded.

[0047] The traditional thread take-up mechanism has a two-stage "release-retract" mechanism with quick return characteristics, such as Fig.10 As shown, the longitudinal displacement of the thread taking track of the four-link thread taking mechanism in the prior art before improvement reverses when the thread taking main shaft rotates at an angle of 128.6°, while the longitudinal displacement of the thread taking track of the gear thread taking mechanism 3 of the improved present invention reverses when the main gear shaft rotates at an angle of 180°, and no quick return characteristic occurs.

[0048] Since suture is a one-dimensional flexible body, it can only form the desired shape under specific tension conditions. The tension of the suture is mainly controlled by the tension regulator and the line layout. The design of the line layout is crucial to maintain the tension required for the suture process and to meet the thread supply during the thread picking process.

[0049] like Fig.11 As shown, the line layout of the present invention is as follows: the suture is led out from the pay-off drum 5, passes through the first thread clamp 17, the first thread post 14, the thread ring bolt 305, the second thread post 15, the second thread clamp 18, the third thread post 16 and the thread guide needle 207 in sequence, and finally passes out from the needle hole of the thread guide needle 207 to form a line layout.

[0050] Specifically, the actual thread supply amount of the gear thread take-up mechanism 3 while supplying thread and tightening the suture thread depends on the thread path formed by the movement trajectory of the thread take-up hole.

[0051] like Fig.12 As shown, the second thread passing post 15 is set as point M, the first thread passing post 14 is set as point N, and the thread taking hole in the gear thread taking-up mechanism 3 passes through points P1, P2, P0 and P3, where point P0 is the highest point of the thread taking-up hole, and point P1 is the lowest point of the thread taking-up hole. When points M, P2, P3 and N are collinear, the thread amount is the least, where the thread taking-up hole from point P1 to point P2 and from point P0 to point P3 is the suture tightening area; the thread taking-up hole from point P2 to point P0 and from point P3 to point P1 is the suture releasing area, ΔL1 is the thread amount difference between the tightening area from point P1 to point P2 and the releasing area from point P3 to point P1, and ΔL2 is the thread amount difference between the tightening area from point P0 to point P3 and the releasing area from point P2 to point P0. The thread amount change relationship of the thread taking-up hole of the gear thread taking-up mechanism 3 from the highest position to the lowest position and then back to the highest position can be derived: in, in, is the distance from point P0 to point M; is the distance from point P0 to point N; is the distance from point P1 to point M; is the distance from point P1 to point N; is the distance from point P0 to point M.
