Description

Technical Field

[0001] One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the technical field of embroidery machines, and in particular, to a tape embroidery device, an embroidery machine, and a tape embroidery feeding control method. Background Art

[0002] The tape embroidery device is used to embroider ribbons and / or ropes and other ribbon-like objects. The tape embroidery device is generally composed of a housing, a drive spindle, a needle bar, a feeder, a presser foot, and a thread take-up bar. The existing feeder uses a tray to carry a large volume of tape. During the tape embroidery operation, the needle pierces the embroidery material, and the surface thread locks the rope or belt on the embroidery material. At this time, the embroidery frame is moved, and the embroidery frame will drive the rope / belt to move. When the size of the tray increases, the rope or belt will be mechanically pulled out of the tray, and there is a large pulling force between the embroidery frame and the tray, which will deform the embroidery and cause poor embroidery.

[0003] In some related technologies, embroidery machines use a rope collection mechanism and a tensioning mechanism to realize the collection and release of the tape. However, the rope collection mechanism and the tensioning mechanism have complex structures. When they are hung on the machine head, they increase the load of the entire tape embroidery device and affect the high-speed operation of the tape embroidery device.

[0004] In the applicant's prior invention patent CN113584748B, the coiled tape embroidery device is provided with a feed rack, and the rope or tape transported on the material tray is transported to the presser foot mounting part of the presser foot after passing through the feed rack. This patent controls the lifting and lowering of the feed rack to pull and lower the rope or tape transported on the material tray. Although compared with the rope collection mechanism and the tensioning mechanism, the feed rack structure is relatively simple. However, in actual application, after the tape is fed from the material tray into the feed rack and passed through the feed rack, the tape is easy to flip over. When the flipped tape is locked by the surface thread, the embroidery pattern is distorted, reducing the quality of the embroidery. In addition, as the material tray keeps rotating, the flipped tape is pressed tighter and tighter, and there will be a large pulling force between the embroidery frame and the material tray, which will deform the embroidery and even break the tape. Summary of the invention

[0005] One or more embodiments of the present disclosure describe a tape embroidery device, an embroidery machine, and a tape embroidery feeding control method, aiming to solve one or more of the above-mentioned problems and other potential problems.

[0006] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a tape embroidery device. The device includes a housing, a presser foot portion, a material tray portion, and a rotary drive mechanism. The presser foot sleeve of the presser foot portion vertically passes through the housing, and the rotary drive mechanism is used to drive the material tray frame of the material tray portion to rotate, and a first sleeve is provided outside the presser foot sleeve. The device also includes a second sleeve, a feed ring, and a feed drive mechanism. The second sleeve is provided outside the first sleeve. The feed ring is installed on the second sleeve to allow a rope or belt on the material tray frame to pass through and be fed into the nozzle or presser foot of the presser foot portion. The feed drive mechanism drives the second sleeve to move up and down to drive the feed ring to move up and down in the vertical direction. The rotary drive mechanism is used to drive the first sleeve to rotate to drive the second sleeve on which the feed ring is installed to rotate.

[0007] In some embodiments, the feeding ring has an arc-shaped concave surface at the feeding port, and the arc-shaped concave surface is horizontally downward.

[0008] In some embodiments, the arcuate concave surface of the feeding ring is arranged toward the material tray on the material tray rack.

[0009] In some embodiments, there are several feeding rings, and each feeding ring is installed on the second shaft sleeve corresponding to a material tray on the material tray rack.

[0010] In some embodiments, the feed ring is mounted on the second sleeve via a mounting member.

[0011] In some embodiments, the feeding drive mechanism includes a feeding drive motor and a driving rod disposed on the housing. The feeding drive motor drives the driving rod to rise and fall, and the second shaft sleeve rises and falls with the driving rod to drive the feeding ring to rise and fall in the vertical direction.

[0012] In some embodiments, the rotary drive mechanism includes a rotary drive motor and a transmission assembly. The rotary drive motor drives the transmission assembly to drive the first sleeve to rotate, and the presser foot sleeve rotates with the first sleeve to drive the presser foot or nozzle of the presser foot part and the material tray frame to rotate synchronously.

[0013] In some embodiments, the rotary drive mechanism includes a presser foot rotary drive mechanism and a material tray rotary drive mechanism. The presser foot rotary drive mechanism drives the presser foot sleeve to rotate, so as to drive the presser foot or nozzle of the presser foot part to rotate. The material tray rotary drive mechanism drives the first shaft sleeve to rotate, so as to drive the material tray frame to rotate.

[0014] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides an embroidery machine, which includes the tape embroidery device according to the first aspect.

[0015] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a feeding control method for tape embroidery. The method is implemented based on the tape embroidery device described in the first aspect. The method includes controlling the machine needle to insert the needle into the embroidery material so that the rope or belt is locked on the embroidery material by the surface thread. The method also includes controlling the feeding drive mechanism to drive the feeding ring to lift so as to pull out the rope or belt on the material tray. The method also includes controlling the machine needle to lift away from the embroidery material. The method also includes controlling the movement of the embroidery frame to pull the rope or belt to move, and synchronously controlling the feeding drive mechanism to drive the feeding ring to descend so as to lower the rope or belt pulled out from the material tray, or first controlling the feeding drive mechanism to drive the feeding ring to descend so as to lower the rope or belt pulled out from the material tray, and then controlling the movement of the embroidery frame. In addition, the method also includes controlling the machine needle to insert the needle into the embroidery material again, and repeating the above steps until the tape embroidery is completed.

[0016] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the drawings required for use in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present disclosure. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying any creative work.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present disclosure more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0019] The term "including" and its variations used in this document represent open inclusion, that is, "including but not limited to". Unless otherwise stated, the term "or" means "and / or". The term "based on" means "based at least in part on". The terms "an example embodiment" and "an embodiment" mean "at least one example embodiment". The term "another embodiment" means "at least one other embodiment". Terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", and "rear" indicating placement or positional relationships are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the principles of the present disclosure, and do not indicate or imply that the referred elements must have a specific orientation, be constructed or operate in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limitations on the present disclosure.

[0020] As mentioned above, the tape embroidery device requires a material tray to transport the tape (such as a rope or a belt) to the presser foot. The needle inserts into the embroidery material, and the upper thread locks the tape to the embroidery material. Continuous operation can complete the tape embroidery. During the tape embroidery operation, the upper thread locks the tape to the embroidery material. At this time, when the embroidery frame is moved, the embroidery frame will drive the tape to move. The tape will be pulled out of the material tray by the embroidery frame. The larger the material tray, the greater the pulling force, which may cause the embroidery to deform and result in defective embroidery.

[0021] In the applicant's prior invention patent, the tape embroidery device is equipped with a feed rack, which is used to draw out the tape on the material tray and put it down, so that when the embroidery frame is moved, the tape will not be pulled tight by the embroidery frame. Although this structure can solve the problem of deformation of embroidery due to excessive pulling force to a certain extent, since the tape generally has a certain width, there is a high probability that the tape will flip over (that is, the tape is not flattened) when it is output from the material tray to the feed rack and then from the feed rack to the presser foot. When the flipped tape is locked by the fabric, the tape embroidery is not smooth. In addition, the feed rack has a certain pressing force on the flipped tape, and as the material tray continues to rotate, the pressing force on the tape becomes greater and greater. When the embroidery frame is moved, the pulling force between the embroidery frame and the material tray increases the pressing force on the tape, which will still pull the embroidery material out of shape and affect the quality of the embroidery.

[0022] In view of this, according to the embodiment of the present invention, a feeding ring with a simple structure is designed to replace the feeding rack, so that when it is installed on the tape embroidery device, the tape material can be pulled out from the material tray and fed into the feeding ring, and the feeding ring can output the flattened tape material to the presser foot, ensuring that the tape material locked by the surface thread is smooth and the embroidery quality is high.

[0023] Figure 1 FIG. 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of a tape embroidery device 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1As shown, the coiling embroidery device 10 includes a housing 101, a needle bar portion, a presser foot portion, and a material tray portion 102. The needle bar portion includes a needle bar 103 and a needle bar driving mechanism, and the needle bar 103 is arranged vertically through the housing. The needle bar driving mechanism includes a cam and a connecting rod mechanism, which is used to drive the needle bar 103 to move up and down. The presser foot portion includes a presser foot mounting member 110 and a presser foot sleeve 104. The presser foot sleeve 104 is sleeved outside the needle bar 103, and the presser foot mounting member 110 is connected to the presser foot sleeve 104. The presser foot mounting member 110 is used to install a presser foot and a nozzle (not shown in the figure, where the presser foot here is a presser foot for threading a belt, and the nozzle is used for threading a rope). The material tray portion 102 includes a material tray frame and a material tray, and a material tray (there can be one or more) is installed on the material tray frame. The material tray is used to transport ribbon-like objects such as ropes or belts to the place to be embroidered for coiling embroidery.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the coiling embroidery device 10 further includes a rotary drive mechanism 109, which is mounted on the housing 101 and is used to drive the tray frame of the tray part 102 to rotate. The tray frame is fixed on the first sleeve 105, which is sleeved outside the presser foot sleeve 104, and the first sleeve 105 is rotatably clamped on the housing 101 or the beam of the embroidery machine. The first sleeve 105 rotates under the drive of the rotary drive mechanism 109, thereby driving the tray frame to rotate.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the tape embroidery device 10 further includes a second sleeve 106, a feed ring 107, and a feed drive mechanism 108. The second sleeve 106 is sleeved on the first sleeve 105, and the feed ring 107 is installed on the second sleeve 106. The feed drive mechanism 108 is arranged on the housing 101, and is used to drive the second sleeve 105 to move up and down, so as to drive the feed ring 107 to move up and down in the vertical direction, and realize the pulling and putting down of the tape during the lifting process. When the first sleeve 105 rotates under the drive of the rotary drive mechanism 109, the second sleeve 106 rotates under the drive of the first sleeve 105, so that the feed ring rotates with the rotation of the material tray.

[0026] In some embodiments, the feed ring 107 can be configured according to the number of trays. That is, when there is one tray, one feed ring is configured and is placed close to the tray. When there are two trays, two feed rings are configured, and each feed ring is placed close to one tray. Figure 1 As shown, the coiling and tape embroidery device 10 has two material trays, and two feed rings 107 are respectively installed on both sides of the second sleeve 106. Like this, the rope or belt conveyed on the material tray can pass through the feed ring 107 and be sent into the presser foot or the nozzle.

[0027] In some embodiments, the feeding ring 107 can be a closed ring or an unclosed ring with a gap, such as a feeding ring in the shape of a three-quarter ring or a semicircular ring. In this way, the rope or belt can enter the feeding ring 107 in any direction along the circumference of the ring surface, and can adapt to the feeding material entering from all directions as the material tray rotates. At the same time, the ring surface can guide the material to move smoothly.

[0028] In some embodiments, the feeding ring 107 has an arc-shaped concave surface at the feeding port, and the arc-shaped concave surface is horizontal and downward. Figure 1 As shown, the strip generally enters from the top of the feed ring 107, is output from the bottom, and is then sent to the presser foot or nozzle below. The top entry is the feed port, and the bottom output is the discharge port. The end face of the feed port of the feed ring 107 is an arc end face, which extends downward toward the center of the feed port, so that the caliber at the feed port gradually decreases, and the whole is concave, which is defined as an arc-shaped concave surface in the embodiment disclosed in the present invention. In this way, a strip of material with a certain width can enter from the arc-shaped concave surface at the feed port, and the arc-shaped concave surface can facilitate the strip to enter smoothly and flatten, and at the same time, the presser foot or nozzle is introduced downward along the direction of the arc-shaped concave surface (mainly horizontally downward). In some examples, the strip can enter the feed ring 107 obliquely, and be vertically guided out of the feed ring 107, and then inserted into the presser foot or nozzle.

[0029] In some embodiments, the arc-shaped concave surface of the feed ring 107 is arranged toward the corresponding material tray on the material tray frame. This can facilitate the guiding of the tape material into and output to the presser foot or nozzle of the presser foot part. In one example, the feed ring 107 can be vertically installed on the tape embroidery device 10. For example, the feed inlet and the discharge port of the feed ring 107 are arranged on the same vertical line. In another example, the feed ring 107 can be tiltedly installed on the tape embroidery device 10. For example, the feed inlet is arranged close to the material tray on the same side, and the discharge port is arranged close to the rotation center of the material tray.

[0030] Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the structure of the feed ring 107 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The feed ring 107 can be a feed collar structure, which has an arc-shaped concave surface 107-1. The strip enters from the arc-shaped concave surface 107-1 of the feed ring 107 and is guided downward. Following the arc-shaped guidance, the strip is flattened, and after being guided along the arc-shaped concave surface through the line, the strip can be guided vertically downward. Figure 2 In the example, the feeding ring 107 has a certain thickness, which can better guide the strip material to be led out in a flat state. In other examples, the feeding ring 107 can be a thin sheet ring.

[0031] exist Figure 2In the example shown, the feed ring 107 includes an upper ring portion and a lower ring portion, and the outer diameter of the upper ring portion is greater than the outer diameter of the lower ring portion. In some embodiments, the feed ring 107 can also be a ring of other structural forms, such as a cylindrical ring formed by equal outer diameters of the upper and lower ring portions.

[0032] Figure 3 FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a structure in which a feed ring 107 is installed on a second sleeve 106 through a mounting member 111 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown, the mounting member 111 can be a mounting plate, which is fixed on the second sleeve 106, for example, it can be fixed on the outside of the second sleeve 106, or it can be fixed on the inside of the second sleeve. In some embodiments, the mounting member 111 also has a mounting hole, allowing the feed ring 107 to be sleeved in the mounting hole. The feed ring 107 can cooperate with the mounting hole without relative rotation. In some embodiments, the mounting member 111 can also be welded to the feed ring 107, or screwed and fixed, or screwed.

[0033] In some embodiments, the mounting member 111 can be used to tilt the feed ring 107. In this way, the arc-shaped concave surface of the feed ring 107 can face the feed tray. In one example, the mounting member 111 can be an obtuse-angle connector or a connector of other forms. In some embodiments, the mounting member 111 can be used to vertically mount the feed ring 107. The mounting member 111 can be a right-angle connector or a connector of other forms.

[0034] In some embodiments, there are several feed rings 107, and each feed ring is mounted on the second sleeve 106 corresponding to a tray on the tray rack. In some examples, each feed ring is mounted on the second sleeve 106 via a mounting member, for example Figure 3 In some examples, several feed members can be mounted on the second sleeve 106 by a mounting member. In one example, the mounting member can be an annular plate for fixing several feed ring members.

[0035] Figure 4 FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the transmission structure between the feeding ring 107 and the driving mechanism that drives the feeding ring 107 to rotate and lift according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4As shown, the feeding drive mechanism includes a feeding motor 108-1, a conveying structure 108-2, and a driving rod 108-3. The motor shaft of the feeding motor 108-1 drives the conveying structure 108-2 to transmit, and then drives the driving rod 108-3 connected to the conveying structure 108-2 to move up and down. Among them, the conveying structure can be implemented by conveying components such as pulleys or sprockets. In one example, the conveying structure is composed of a conveyor belt, a driving wheel, and a driven wheel. The motor 108-1 drives the driving wheel to rotate, and the driven wheel rotates under the transmission of the conveyor belt. The conveying structure 108-2 is connected to one end of the driving rod 108-3, and during the transmission process of the conveyor belt, the driving rod 108-3 can be controlled to rise and fall. The other end of the driving rod 108-3 is connected to the second sleeve 106 (for example, through Figure 4 The driving fork structure in the embodiment realizes the connection between the driving rod 108-3 and the second sleeve 106), and the other end of the driving rod 108-3 lifts and lowers with the second sleeve 106. Accordingly, the feeding ring 107 connected to the second sleeve 106 also lifts and lowers accordingly.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the rotary drive mechanism includes a rotary drive motor 109-1, a transmission rod 109-3, and a transmission assembly 109-2. In some embodiments, the transmission assembly can adopt a transmission structure of a master and slave pulley. The transmission assembly 109-2 includes a driving wheel, a belt, and a driven wheel. The rotary drive motor 109-1 drives the transmission rod 109-3 to rotate, and then the transmission assembly connected to the transmission rod 109-3 also rotates accordingly, and the first sleeve 105 connected to the driven wheel also rotates accordingly to drive the material tray frame to rotate, and the feed ring 107 installed on the second sleeve 106 to rotate. In some embodiments, the rotary drive mechanism can be used alone for the rotation of the material tray, that is, as a presser foot rotary drive mechanism, and accordingly, the rotation of the presser foot is realized by another set of presser foot rotary drive mechanisms. For example, in the applicant's prior invention patent CN113584748B, the presser foot rotary drive mechanism includes a presser foot drive motor and a transmission assembly. The presser foot drive motor drives the transmission assembly to move, and then drives the presser foot sleeve to rotate, so as to drive the presser foot or the nozzle to rotate. In some embodiments, a rotary drive mechanism is used, which can simultaneously drive the presser foot or nozzle and the material tray frame to rotate synchronously. The rotary drive motor drives the transmission assembly to drive the first shaft sleeve to rotate, and the presser foot sleeve rotates with the first shaft sleeve to drive the presser foot or nozzle of the presser foot part to rotate. At the same time, the material tray frame is installed on the first shaft sleeve, and the material tray frame and the feeding frame also rotate synchronously.

[0037] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an embroidery machine, including an embroidery frame and a plurality of embroidery machine heads. The plurality of embroidery machine heads include a plurality of flat embroidery device heads and a plurality of tape embroidery device heads. The tape embroidery device can be used Figure 1The tape embroidery device 10 shown. The main shaft drives the needle bars of multiple machine heads (flat embroidery devices) to move synchronously. The main shaft is also connected to the camshaft on the tape embroidery device, and then the main shaft drives the cam and connecting rod mechanism to drive, so as to realize the movement of the needle bar on the tape embroidery device. When the tape embroidery device and the flat embroidery device are arranged together on a computer embroidery machine, the tape embroidery device is prevented from moving with the flat embroidery device to cause mechanical wear and loose threads. The tape embroidery device also includes a separation mechanism, so that the tape embroidery device can be disengaged from the main shaft and stop rotating when the flat embroidery device is in operation.

[0038] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a method for controlling the feeding of tape embroidery. The method is implemented based on the tape embroidery device of the embodiment of the present disclosure. The method is executed by a controller at the embroidery machine end. In some embodiments, the method includes controlling the machine needle to insert the needle into the embroidery material so that the rope or belt is locked on the embroidery material by the surface thread. The method also includes controlling the feeding drive mechanism to drive the feeding ring to lift so as to pull out the rope or belt on the material tray. The method also includes controlling the machine needle to lift away from the embroidery material. The method also includes controlling the embroidery frame to move so as to pull the rope or belt to move, and synchronously controlling the feeding drive mechanism to drive the feeding ring to descend so as to lower the rope or belt pulled out from the material tray. In addition, the method also includes controlling the machine needle to insert the needle into the embroidery material again, and repeating the above steps until the tape embroidery is completed.

[0039] In some embodiments, the method includes controlling the needle to penetrate the embroidery material so that the rope or belt is locked on the embroidery material by the upper thread. The method also includes controlling the feed drive mechanism to drive the feed ring to lift so as to pull out the rope or belt on the material tray. The method also includes controlling the needle to lift away from the embroidery material. The method also includes first controlling the feed drive mechanism to drive the feed ring to descend so as to lower the rope or belt pulled out from the material tray, and then controlling the embroidery frame to move. In addition, the method also includes controlling the needle to penetrate the embroidery material again, and repeating the above steps until the tape embroidery is completed.

[0040] In this way, when the needle is controlled to penetrate the embroidery material, the rope or belt is locked by the upper thread. At this time, the feed drive mechanism is used to control the feed ring to move upward, so that the rope or belt on the material tray is pulled out from the material tray. After that, the needle is controlled to move upward to leave the embroidery material and move the frame. The feed ring can release the thread when it moves downward, and the embroidery frame pulls the rope or belt to move, which can solve the problem that the embroidery frame generates a large mechanical pulling force when moving due to the increase in the size of the material tray, which will then deform the embroidery and cause the embroidery to be defective.

[0041] Furthermore, due to the provision of an annular feeding piece, the rope or belt transported by the material tray can be introduced from any circumferential angle and led out in a flattened state, the rope or belt can be smoothly guided and pulled, and the dynamic pulling process when the material tray rotates can be adapted. The rope or belt can be smoothly transported to the presser foot or nozzle, and the transported rope is not subjected to a large pulling force or pressure due to the rotation of the material tray, thereby ensuring that the embroidery will not be deformed due to pulling, thereby improving the quality of the embroidery.

[0042] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Without departing from the design spirit of the present disclosure, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present disclosure.
