Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0070] In actual production applications, since the length of the embroidery machine can reach 10 to 20 meters and the operating head is generally only located on one side of the machine, when workers need to adjust and control the embroidery machine through the operating head, they need to move back and forth between the machine and the operating head, which brings inconvenience to daily work and reduces efficiency.

However, there is a time delay in the displayed images of the two operating heads.

[0072] In view of the above problems existing in the prior art, the present application provides a method for synchronous control of multiple operating heads of an embroidery machine. The method connects a master operating box with a master control box, connects a slave operating box with the master control box through a signal transfer box, and synchronizes the master operating box with the slave operating box through the data stream of the embedded operating system in the master operating box and the slave operating box.

The signal transfer box communicates with the main control box through the network to complete the corresponding data processing. The slave operation box interacts with the signal transfer box to transmit video signals, touch screen input and keyboard input and other information. The switch power supply is used to power the main control box, the main operation box, the signal transfer box and the slave operation box.

[0075] Figure 2 This is a method for synchronously controlling multiple operating heads of an embroidery machine provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 .like Figure 2 As shown, the embroidery machine multi-operation head synchronous control method provided in this embodiment includes:

[0076] S101: obtaining an operation instruction input by a user through a main operation box or a slave operation box, and parsing the operation instruction to obtain parsed first data information.

[0077] It can be understood that the main operation box or the slave operation box, as the main medium for the user to interact with the embroidery machine, can receive and process the operation instructions input by the user. The main operation box or the slave operation box is usually equipped with input devices such as a touch screen and a keyboard, and the user can input the operation instructions to the main operation box or the slave operation box through the input device. Among them, the touch screen can display menus, options and graphical interfaces, and the user can input instructions by touching the icons or text on the screen. The first data information is the data information related to the execution of the operation instructions generated by the main operation box or the slave operation box in the process of parsing and processing the operation instructions, which includes various parameters and status information required for the embroidery process.

[0078] The operation instructions input by the user may be, for example, starting / stopping embroidery, selecting a pattern, adjusting the embroidery speed, setting the embroidery starting point, etc. The input device on the main operation box or the slave operation box transmits the operation instructions input by the user to the operating system inside the main operation box or the slave operation box, and the operating system parses the input operation instructions and identifies the type and parameters of the instructions.

[0079] This process ensures that the instructions input by the user can be accurately and efficiently converted into actions and data information that can be executed by the embroidery machine, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the embroidery process.

[0080] S102: Sending the first data information to the main control box, the main control box controls the embroidery machine to perform embroidery operation according to the first data information.

[0081] Among them, the main control box is the core part of the embroidery machine control system, which is responsible for receiving, processing and forwarding control instructions, as well as monitoring the operating status of the embroidery machine.

[0082] It can be understood that after receiving the first data information, the main control box generates a corresponding control signal or command according to the data information, and sends the generated control signal or command to each execution component of the embroidery machine to realize accurate control of the embroidery machine.

[0083] Furthermore, after receiving and identifying the corresponding control signal or command, each execution component of the embroidery machine performs embroidery operations according to predetermined procedures and parameters, such as moving the embroidery frame, adjusting the needle position, etc. This process ensures that the embroidery process can be accurately performed according to the user's requirements.

[0084] S103: Perform data conversion processing on the first data information through the signal conversion box to obtain converted second data information, and send the second data information to the main operation box or the slave operation box.

[0085] It can be understood that the signal transfer box receives the unconverted original operation data from the master operation box or the slave operation box, and converts the received data information using the built-in processing algorithm or logic circuit. The conversion process includes operations such as changing the data format and converting the data encoding, and the converted second data information is sent to the master operation box or the slave operation box through the corresponding communication interface.

[0086] The first data information is converted through the signal adapter box, and the converted second data information is sent to the main operation box or the slave operation box, ensuring the accurate transmission of data between different parts, which is beneficial for the main operation box or the slave operation box to perform further processing or operation according to the converted second data information.

[0087] S104: The master operation box or the slave operation box updates its own operation status according to the second data information.

[0088] It can be understood that the main operation box or the slave operation box receives the second data information from the signal conversion box through the corresponding communication interface. The operating system inside the main operation box or the slave operation box analyzes and processes the received second data information to determine key information related to the operation status, including embroidery progress, current working status, etc.

[0089] The main operation box or the slave operation box adjusts the corresponding parameter settings according to the above embroidery progress, current working status, etc., and updates its display interface.

[0090] This process ensures that the user can understand the status information of the embroidery process in real time. The user can make reasonable adjustments to the embroidery process based on the status information of the embroidery process to ensure the smooth progress and high-quality completion of the embroidery.

[0091] The embodiment of the present application provides a synchronous control method for multiple operation heads of an embroidery machine, which obtains the operation instruction input by the user through the main operation box or the slave operation box, and parses and processes the operation instruction to obtain the parsed first data information; sends the first data information to the main control box, and the main control box controls the embroidery machine to perform embroidery operation according to the first data information; performs data conversion processing on the first data information through the signal conversion box to obtain the converted second data information, and sends the second data information to the main operation box or the slave operation box; the main operation box or the slave operation box updates its own operation status according to the second data information. The method realizes the synchronous control of multiple operation heads of the embroidery machine, which is convenient for users to operate the embroidery machine.

[0092] Figure 3 A synchronous control method for multiple operating heads of an embroidery machine provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 This embodiment is in Figure 2 Based on the embodiment, a possible implementation method of the synchronous control method of multiple operating heads of an embroidery machine is described in detail. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0093] S201: Determine whether the operation instruction comes from the main operation box; if so, execute step S202, if not, execute step S203.

[0094] The operation instruction can be input through different input devices. The master operation box and the slave operation box correspond to different input interfaces respectively. By determining the input interface of the operation instruction, the source of the operation instruction is determined.

[0095] S202: parsing the operation instruction through the first operating system running in the main operation box to obtain parsed first data information, where the first data information includes: pattern parameters.

[0102] The embroidery frame moving path parameter describes the moving trajectory of the embroidery frame during the embroidery process, and the embroidery needle moving path parameter describes the moving trajectory of the embroidery needle on the embroidery product.

[0103] It can be understood that the main control box generates the above-mentioned embroidery frame movement path parameters and embroidery needle movement path parameters according to the input pattern parameters through the built-in algorithm and calculation model, ensuring that the embroidery machine can perform precise embroidery operations according to the preset patterns and requirements to achieve the expected embroidery effect.

[0104] S206: Controlling the embroidery machine to perform embroidery operation according to the preset pattern according to the embroidery frame moving path parameters and the embroidery needle moving path parameters.

[0107] During this process, it should also be ensured that the movement of the embroidery frame and the embroidery needle is synchronized to maintain the accuracy and consistency of the embroidery. For example, a synchronization signal can be used to control the movement of the embroidery frame and the embroidery needle, and the positions of the embroidery frame and the embroidery needle can be monitored in real time to ensure that both reach the target position at the same time.

[0108] By receiving the embroidery frame moving path parameters and the embroidery needle moving path parameters, the embroidery machine can accurately control the movement and embroidery action of the embroidery frame and the embroidery needle to ensure that the embroidery operation is performed according to the preset pattern.
