Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field related to zipper sewing, in particular to a sewing mechanism for sewing a zipper and cutting a base fabric. Background Art

[0002] When the zipper is produced, the zipper head is connected to the two chain belts, and the chain teeth on the two chain belts fit together. When the two chain belts need to be sewn together with the base fabric, the zipper head on the zipper needs to be removed first, and then the base fabric and the zipper belt are stacked together, and then sewn by a sewing machine to connect the zipper belt to the base fabric and slit the base fabric with a slit knife, and then the zipper head is connected to the two chain belts; the sewing method of the zipper and the base fabric requires removing the zipper head first, sewing, and then installing the zipper head, resulting in slow connection speed and low efficiency between the zipper and the base fabric. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to overcome the existing technical defects, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a sewing mechanism for sewing a zipper and cutting a base fabric to solve the above technical problems.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, a sewing mechanism for sewing a zipper and cutting a base fabric is designed, comprising:

[0006] The needle plate is provided with a receiving groove for receiving and guiding the zipper head to move horizontally, and is provided with two receiving holes located at the front and rear sides of the receiving groove;

[0007] A cloth feeding frame, the upper end of which has two cloth feeding blocks with cloth feeding teeth on the top, and the two cloth feeding blocks extend into the two accommodating holes correspondingly;

[0008] A first presser foot stand, comprising two inner presser feet, wherein the two inner presser feet are correspondingly arranged above the two cloth feeding blocks;

[0009] A needle seat is provided with two needles, and the two needles correspond to the first through holes on the two inner presser feet and the second through holes on the two cloth feeding blocks in a vertical manner;

[0010] The slitting knife is arranged above the accommodating groove and between the two inner presser feet. The slitting knife is connected to a driving assembly for driving the slitting knife to move up and down. When the driving assembly drives the slitting knife to move downward, the slitting knife can extend into the accommodating groove.

[0011] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the base fabric and the zipper need to be sewn together, one end of the zipper is laid on the top surface of the needle plate, the zipper head on the zipper is placed in the receiving groove, and the base fabric and the zipper are placed on the top of the zipper, and the base fabric and the zipper are pushed to the left to move. After the left end of the base fabric and the zipper moves to under the slit knife, the base fabric is pressed by two inner presser feet, and the driving assembly drives the slit knife to move down to pierce the base fabric, and the fabric is fed to the left by the fabric feed block on the fabric feed frame. At the same time, the base fabric and the zipper tape are sewn together by two needles. The base fabric and the zipper tape are sewn and moved to the left, and the slit knife slits the base fabric that is moved to the left, thereby achieving the goal of not removing the zipper head when sewing the zipper and the base fabric, thereby improving the sewing speed and processing efficiency of the base fabric and the zipper; in addition to accommodating the zipper head, the receiving groove can also guide the zipper to move laterally to ensure the straightness of the sewing line and improve the sewing effect.

[0012] In order to better solve the above technical defects, the present invention also has a better technical solution:

[0013] In some embodiments, a limiting gap is provided on the top of the needle plate for the zipper tape to pass through, so that the top surface of the base fabric needle plate can be closely fitted through the limiting gap to ensure the sewing effect.

[0014] In some embodiments, a second presser foot stand is further included, wherein the second presser foot stand has two outer presser feet, and the two inner presser feet are correspondingly arranged in the receiving openings on the two outer presser feet. Thus, the inner presser feet can have a better pressing effect on the base fabric and the zipper, further ensuring the sewing effect of the two.

[0015] In some embodiments, the needle plate is provided with a passage opening that connects the right end of the receiving groove with the outside and is used for the zipper teeth to pass through, and the left end of the receiving groove is connected with the outside. The passage opening can avoid the teeth, so that the zipper tape and the base fabric are laid flat on the top of the needle plate to prevent the zipper and the base fabric from warping at the right end of the needle plate, and can guide the lateral movement of the teeth to ensure the straightness of the sewing line between the base fabric and the zipper, further improving the sewing effect.

[0016] In some embodiments, a limiting partition is provided on the top of the needle plate, the limiting gap is formed between the limiting partition and the needle plate, a limiting plate extending between the two inner presser feet is provided at the left end of the limiting partition, and a through hole for the lower end of the slitting knife to pass through is provided on the limiting plate. The limiting plate can improve the sewing quality and prevent the zipper tape from bulging after passing through the limiting gap. When the zipper tape bulges and is sewn with the base fabric tape, the quality of the zipper and the base fabric tape after sewing is affected and even caused to be scrapped; in addition, the limiting partition also has the function of blocking the right end of the knife rod and the descending distance of the slitting knife, so as to prevent the slitting knife from descending too far and damaging the zipper.

[0017] In some embodiments, the driving assembly includes a knife rod and a driving member for driving the knife rod to move, and the slitting knife is mounted on the knife rod.

[0018] In some embodiments, the knife rod is rotatably engaged with the base via a pin shaft, and the driving member is installed at the left end of the base and is drivingly connected to the knife rod to drive the left end of the knife rod to move up and down, thereby linking the slitting knife at the right end of the knife rod to move up and down.

[0019] In some embodiments, the driving member is a hydraulic cylinder, an electric cylinder, or an electric push rod.

[0020] In some embodiments, the driving member includes a cylinder and a tension spring. The cylinder is installed at the left end of the base and is drivingly connected to the left end of the knife rod. The upper end of the tension spring is connected to the base, and the lower end is connected to the knife rod and is in a stretched state. A limiting member is connected to the left end of the knife rod. When the left end of the knife rod is driven upward, the limiting member abuts against the cylinder or the base to limit the descending height of the slitting knife at the right end of the knife rod.

[0021] In some embodiments, a wedge block is provided at the right end of the needle plate, and a link tooth channel groove corresponding to the channel opening and used for link teeth to pass through is provided on the wedge block, and the longitudinal widths of the channel opening and the link tooth channel groove are both smaller than the longitudinal width of the accommodating groove.
