Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of unilateral suturing, and in particular relates to a unilateral suturing device. Background Art
[0002] Over 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, automotive, shipbuilding, and construction due to their excellent properties such as excellent heat resistance, high-strength impact resistance, and corrosion resistance. Traditional production of three-dimensional composite preform products mainly uses bonding and manual weaving technologies. However, bonding cannot ensure that the mechanical properties between layers do not change, while manual weaving has low efficiency, high labor costs, and poor product consistency. Traditional double-sided 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 positioning requirements.
[0003] At present, more and more single-sided suturing devices are used for single-sided suturing operations, but most of the single-sided suturing devices in the existing technology adopt a double-needle mechanism design. For the design of the double-needle mechanism, both the hooking mechanism and the lead mechanism are driven by a crank-connecting rod mechanism. However, due to the singleness of the movement of the crank-connecting rod mechanism, while the hooking mechanism and the lead mechanism achieve a large working stroke, it is difficult to ensure the adjustability of the "two needle intersection" position deviation, 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, and the cost and feasibility are greatly reduced.
[0004] Furthermore, existing single-sided sewing machines utilize a separate thread take-up mechanism from a traditional double-sided sewing machine, creating a two-stage "pay-off-and-take-up" mechanism with a quick-return feature. While this quick-return feature can shorten the idle return stroke and improve production efficiency, it can also lead to instability at high speeds, affecting both efficiency and precision.

[0016] The present invention also provides a suturing method of a single-side suturing device, comprising the following steps:
[0017] S1, during the process of the guide needle carrying the suture into the sewing material retreating, the hook needle pierces the sewing material;
[0018] S2, the thread guide needle retreats to form a thread loop, and the hook hooks the thread loop;
[0019] S3, the crochet 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 crochet hook and the thread guide needle move one stitch length at the same time;
[0020] S4, the thread guide needle penetrates the sewing material again, forming a new thread loop during the retreat process, and the hook needle with the thread loop penetrates the sewing material again, causing the thread loop to fall off on the surface of the sewing material, and at the same time the hook needle hooks the new thread loop;
[0021] S5, the hook needle brings the new thread loop out of the sewing material surface and just passes through the center of the last detached thread loop. At the same time, the thread guide needle retreats to the top of the sewing material;
[0022] S6. Cooperate with the gear thread take-up mechanism to supply thread and tighten the suture at the same time, repeat the suturing actions of step S4 and step S5, and obtain a single-sided suture trace formed by multiple cycles of suturing operations.
[0023] Furthermore, the suture is led out from the wire drum, passes through the first wire clamp, the first wire post, the wire ring bolt, the second wire post, the second wire clamp, the third wire post and the thread guide needle in sequence, and finally passes through the needle hole of the thread guide needle to form a wire channel.
[0024] Furthermore, the amount of wire that changes when the wire take-up hole of the wire ring bolt descends from the highest position to the lowest position and then returns to the highest position is:
[0025] Set the second thread passing post as point M, the first thread passing post as point N, and the thread take-up hole in the gear thread take-up mechanism through points P1, P2, P0 and P3.

[0026]
[0027] in,
[0028]

[0030] Furthermore, the thread take-up hole, point M, and point N are all located in the same plane, so the formulas of ΔL1 and ΔL2 are converted to:
[0031]
[0032] in, is the horizontal coordinate of point P0; is the ordinate of point P0; is the vertical coordinate of point P0; is the horizontal coordinate of point P1; is the ordinate of point P1; is the vertical coordinate of point P1; is the horizontal coordinate of point M; is the ordinate of point M; is the vertical coordinate of point M; is the horizontal coordinate of point N; is the ordinate of point N; is the vertical coordinate of point N.
[0033] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0034] (1) The present invention performs sewing from one side of the processed product. Single-side sewing has less restrictions on the shape of the processed product and the space for sewing operation. It can meet the sewing needs in various occasions and has a wide range of applicability.
[0035] (2) The thread hooking mechanism of the present invention adopts a disc-shaped cam design, replacing the more common single-motion crank slider mechanism. By adjusting the cam profile, it can timely adapt to the spatial coordination of the hook and the guide needle. When the synchronous belt is driven, the guide needle movement is first determined, and then the cam profile is changed to reach the correct spatial landing point of the hook. At the same time, the hook amplitude driven by the cam is small, and the thread hooking mechanism is highly stable, which greatly improves the success rate of suturing.
[0036] (3) The gear thread taking-up mechanism of the present invention is composed of a five-bar mechanism with a concentric gear. The thread path layout is realized by cooperating with a thread passing column and a thread clamp with tension control. The two-stage "release-reel" of the traditional thread taking-up mechanism with a quick return characteristic is transformed into a four-stage "release-reel-release-reel" without a quick return characteristic to meet the one-to-one correspondence of the thread supply intervals.
[0037] (4) The present invention solves the problem of poor forming quality of unilateral suture stitches. The chain stitches formed are smooth, which reduces the occurrence of floating threads, broken threads, wrong hooks, 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

[0061] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the gear thread taking mechanism 3 includes a main gear 303 and a sub-gear 301 that are meshed with each other in equal size. The main gear 303 is connected to the mounting end of the main gear connecting rod 304, and the sub-gear 301 is connected to the mounting end of the sub-gear connecting rod 302.

[0062] like Figure 6 As shown, the transmission route of the present invention is:
[0063] Inside 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.

[0066] 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 .
[0067] The wire reel 5 is fixed to 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.

[0069] 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:
[0070] S1, the guide needle 207 carries the suture and pierces the sewing material. During the process of retreating a distance, the hook needle 106 pierces the sewing material;
[0071] S2, the thread guide needle 207 retreats to form a thread loop, and the hook 106 hooks the middle thread loop;
[0072] S3, the hook 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 106 and the thread guide needle 207 move relative to each other for one stitch length at the same time;
[0073] S4, the thread guide needle 207 penetrates the sewing material again, forms a new thread loop in the process of retreating a distance, and the hook needle 106 with the thread loop penetrates 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;
[0074] S5, the hook 106 brings the new thread loop out of the sewing material surface and just passes through the center of the last detached thread loop. At the same time, the thread guide needle 207 retreats to the top of the sewing material;
[0075] S6. Cooperate with the gear thread take-up mechanism 3 to supply thread and tighten the suture at the same time, repeat the suturing action of step S4 and step S5, and obtain a single-sided suture trace formed by multiple cycles of suturing operation.
[0076] like Figure 9 As shown, the unilateral 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 guide needle 207 punctures the sewing material, the hook needle 106 hooks out the thread loop, and moves between stitch lengths, namely steps S1 to S3.
[0077] The theoretical thread requirement curve of the unilateral suture device is obtained by combining the three stages. The actual thread usage is measured experimentally, with the top dead point of the thread guide needle 207 as phase zero, and the thread supply of the pay-off drum 5 is recorded.
[0078] The traditional thread take-up mechanism has a two-stage "release-rewind" mechanism with quick return characteristics, such as Figure 10 As shown, the longitudinal displacement of the thread taking-up track of the four-link thread taking-up mechanism in the prior art before the improvement is reversed when the rotation angle of the thread taking-up main shaft is 128.6°, and the longitudinal displacement of the thread taking-up track of the gear thread taking-up mechanism 3 of the improved present invention is reversed when the rotation angle of the main gear shaft is 180°, and no quick return characteristic occurs.
[0079] Because suture is a one-dimensional, flexible material, it can only form the desired shape under specific tension conditions. Suture tension is primarily controlled by the tension regulator and the thread path layout. The design of the thread path layout is crucial for maintaining the desired tension during the suturing process and ensuring adequate thread supply during the thread take-up process.
[0080] like Figure 11 As shown, the line layout of the present invention is as follows: the suture is led out from the wire drum 5, passes through the first wire clamp 17, the first wire post 14, the wire ring bolt 305, the second wire post 15, the second wire clamp 18, the third wire 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.
[0081] Specifically, the actual thread supply amount of the gear thread take-up mechanism 3 while tightening the suture thread depends on the thread path formed by the movement trajectory of the thread take-up hole.
[0082] like Figure 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-up hole in the gear thread taking-up mechanism 3 passes through points P1, P2, P0 and P3, wherein 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, wherein 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 when it drops from the highest position to the lowest position and then returns to the highest position can be derived:
