Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sewing machines, and in particular relates to a thread trimming mechanism of a sewing machine. Background Art

[0002] The sewing machine is mainly composed of a base (i.e., the casing and bottom plate), a needle bar mechanism, a feeding mechanism, a thread hook mechanism, a presser foot mechanism, a thread trimming mechanism and accessories. Through the reasonable coordination of the movements of each mechanism and the circulation work, the sewing materials are sewed together.

[0003] During the sewing machine's initial and final stages of sewing, long thread ends are left on the fabric surface. These thread ends can form a bird's nest-like pattern on the finished garment, affecting the overall quality of the garment. To ensure the quality of the garment, these thread ends must be manually trimmed, which increases labor intensity and affects production efficiency.

[0004] To improve sewing efficiency, automatic thread trimming mechanisms are commonly used in sewing equipment. This not only allows for smoother sewing but also reduces thread ends in clothing, improving the efficiency of subsequent finishing. CN202322683791.X discloses a single-action knife anti-bird nest thread trimming mechanism and a sewing machine. This technical solution can cut off excess sewing thread at the beginning of the seam and also cut the thread after the sewing process is completed.

[0005] In actual application, this technical solution still leaves less than ideal thread ends on the fabric surface. For some ordinary clothes, the thread ends are generally long enough to avoid the need for manual trimming. However, for some high-end clothes, the thread ends left on the fabric are still quite long and still require manual trimming. Therefore, the applicant has further researched and developed a new technical solution to achieve the effect of even shorter thread ends. Summary of the Invention

[0044] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0045] Example 1, as Figure 1-10As shown, the double movable knife assembly of the thread trimming mechanism of the sewing machine includes a first movable knife assembly 10 and a second movable knife assembly 20; the first movable knife assembly 10 and the second movable knife assembly 20 are both rotatably sleeved on the outside of the adapted rotary hook mechanism; the first movable knife assembly is used to hook the sewing thread, and the second movable knife assembly cooperates with the first movable knife assembly to cut the sewing thread;

[0046] The first movable knife assembly 10 includes a first movable knife holder 11 and a first movable knife 12. A first ring portion 111 is provided in the middle of the first movable knife holder. The first ring portion 111 is used to be rotatably mounted on the outer side of the rotary hook mechanism 30. A first driving portion 112 is provided on one side of the first ring portion 111, and a first movable knife mounting portion 113 is provided on the other side. The first movable knife mounting portion 113 is a component extending along the axial direction of the first ring portion 111. The first movable knife 12 is mounted on the first movable knife mounting portion 113. The tip of the first movable knife is provided with a first cutting edge 121.

[0047] The second movable knife assembly 20 includes a second movable knife holder 21 and a second movable knife 22. A second ring portion 211 is provided in the middle of the second movable knife holder 21, and the second ring portion is used to be rotatably mounted on the outer side of the rotary hook mechanism. A second driving portion 212 is provided on one side of the second ring portion, and a second movable knife mounting portion 213 is provided on the other side. The second movable knife mounting portion 213 is a component extending along the axial direction of the second ring portion 211, and the second movable knife 22 is mounted on the second movable knife mounting portion 213.

[0048] The second movable blade 22 is positioned above the first movable blade 12, with its front end resting against the upper surface of the first movable blade 12. A second cutting edge 221 is provided at the front end of the second movable blade. When the second movable blade 22 slides to a set position on the surface of the first movable blade 12, the second cutting edge 221 cooperates with the first cutting edge 121 to cut the sewing thread. Specifically, the first loop portion 111 and the second loop portion 211 are both mounted on the front end of the rotary hook sleeve 301 of the rotary hook mechanism 30. A ring portion 302 is provided at the front end of the rotary hook sleeve 301. The first loop portion 111 and the second loop portion 211 are adjacently mounted on the ring portion 302.

[0049] The first movable knife 12 and the second movable knife 22 are both located on the same side of the needle position so that the first movable knife can be retracted and the second movable knife can be advanced to achieve thread cutting. During the thread cutting process, the first movable knife 12 first rotates in the first direction to a set position, and then rotates in the second direction to drive the sewing thread; when the first movable knife rotates in the second direction, the second movable knife 22 rotates in the first direction, and the second movable knife 22 slides on the surface of the first movable knife 12. The second cutting edge 221 cooperates with the first cutting edge 121 to cut the sewing thread; the first direction of rotation is counterclockwise, and the second direction of rotation is clockwise; or, the first direction of rotation is clockwise, and the second direction of rotation is counterclockwise. Preferably, a front hole groove 122 and a thread hooking groove 123 are provided on the first movable knife 12, and the front hole groove 122 and the thread hooking groove 123 are arranged along the rotation direction of the first movable knife 12; the front hole groove 122 is arranged at the tip of the first movable knife 12, and the first cutting edge 121 is provided at the front edge of the front hole groove 122; the thread hooking groove 123 is provided in the middle of the first movable knife, and an opening 1231 for hooking the thread is provided on the thread hooking groove 123; a accommodating groove 124 for accommodating sewing thread is provided between the front hole groove and the thread hooking groove.

[0050] Preferably, the first ring portion 111 and the second ring portion 211 are arranged in parallel front and back, or the first ring portion 111 and the second ring portion 211 are arranged inside and outside;

[0051] The first ring portion 111 and the second ring portion 211 are arranged on the same axis to ensure tight fit between the first movable knife and the second movable knife.

[0052] Preferably, the first drive unit 112 and the second drive unit 212 are both located on the same side; the first movable knife 12 and the second movable knife 22 are both located on the same side. If the two movable knives are both located on the same side, it is possible to achieve a coordinated thread cutting operation in which one knife moves forward and the other knife moves backward. If the two movable knives are located on different sides, only the thread cutting action at the end of sewing can be achieved, and the thread cutting action at the beginning of sewing cannot be achieved; when the two movable knives are located on different sides, the two knives move forward or backward synchronously. Even if a front hole slot 122 is provided on one of the knives, before the front hole slot 122 moves under the needle, the other movable knife will move to the needle position and will not be able to cut the thread.

[0053] Described front hole slot 122 and / or hook thread slot 123 allow the needle 90 of sewing machine to pass through. This design corresponds to the needle position of needle 90, and both positions are applicable.

[0054] The thread trimming mechanism of the sewing machine includes the double-moving knife assembly described above; and further includes:

[0055] A first transmission assembly 40, which is used to drive the first driving portion 112 of the first ring portion;

[0056] A second transmission assembly 50, which is used to drive the second driving portion 212 of the second ring portion;

[0057] At least one drive assembly 60 is used to drive the first transmission assembly 40 and / or the second transmission assembly 50. A single drive assembly 60 offers lower costs and simpler electronic control. Ideally, the first and second transmission assemblies 40 and 50 are located on opposite sides of the drive assembly. This facilitates the configuration of the transmission structure, enabling one drive assembly to swing upward for feed and the other to swing downward for retraction.

[0058] Preferably, the driving component is a motor 101, and the motor shaft of the motor drives the first transmission component 40 and the second transmission component 50; the motor can be set as a dual-axis motor, and the other end of its motor shaft is used to drive another set of mechanisms 102, such as a presser foot lifting mechanism or a needle distance adjustment mechanism, etc. The technical solution for how to share a motor between the two sets of mechanisms is relatively mature and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0059] The first transmission assembly includes a first crank 41 and a first connecting rod 42; one end of the first crank 41 is fixedly mounted on a tangent crank shaft 103, which is in transmission with the motor shaft; the other end of the first crank is hingedly connected to one end of the first connecting rod 42, and the other end of the first connecting rod is hingedly connected to the first driving portion 112 of the first movable tool holder; a first spring 48 is mounted on the first crank 41, which ensures that the first transmission assembly has a tendency to maintain its reset motion;

[0060] The second transmission assembly 50 includes an intermittent motion mechanism 59; when the first movable knife 12 rotates in the first direction, the intermittent motion mechanism 59 isolates the power transmission between the drive assembly and the second movable knife assembly 20; when the first movable knife 12 rotates in the second direction, the intermittent motion mechanism 59 transmits the power of the drive assembly to the second movable knife assembly 20. Specifically, the second transmission assembly includes a drive cam 51, a second drive crank 52, and a second connecting rod 53; the second drive crank 52 is rotatably mounted on the frame via a hinge point 521; one end of the second connecting rod 52 is hinged to the second drive portion 212 of the second movable knife frame, and the other end of the second connecting rod 53 is hinged to one end of the second drive crank 52, and the second drive crank is rotatably mounted on the frame;

[0061] The intermittent motion mechanism 59 is arranged between the second driving crank 52 and the driving cam 51; the intermittent motion mechanism 59 includes a movable or deformable abutment portion 54 arranged at the other end of the second driving crank 52; the driving cam 51 is fixedly mounted on the tangent crank shaft 103, and the driving cam 51 and the first crank 41 move synchronously; one side of the driving cam 51 abuts on the abutment portion 54; when the driving cam applies force to the abutment portion 54 from a first set direction (the first set direction of the driving cam is counterclockwise rotation, corresponding to the process of the first movable knife 12 rotating in the first direction), the abutment portion moves or deforms and offsets the transmission of the driving cam 51, and when the driving cam applies force to the abutment portion from a second set direction (the second set direction of the driving cam is clockwise rotation, corresponding to the process of the first movable knife 12 rotating in the second direction), the abutment portion 54 links the second driving crank 52. If there is no intermittent motion mechanism 59, when the first movable knife assembly moves in the first direction, the second movable knife assembly will also move in the first direction, and the second movable knife assembly will interfere with the action of the first movable knife assembly to hook the sewing thread, resulting in thread cutting failure.

[0062] Preferably, a guide slot 522 is provided at the lower portion of the second drive crank 52. The abutment portion 54 includes a movable rod 545 disposed within the guide slot 522. An elastic component 541 is disposed within the guide slot 522 to reposition the movable rod 545. When the drive cam 51 rotates from a first set direction and compresses the movable rod, the drive cam abuts against the end 544 of the movable rod, causing the movable rod 545 to retract into the guide slot 522 and isolate power transmission. When the drive cam rotates from a second set direction and compresses the movable rod 545, the drive cam abuts against the side 543 of the movable rod, causing the movable rod to rotate the second drive crank 52. An adjusting nut 542 is mounted at the rear end of the movable rod 545. Rotating the adjusting nut 542 controls the elastic force of the elastic component 541. A second shock-absorbing pad 523 is provided on one side of the second drive crank 52. The second shock-absorbing pad 523 abuts against a bracket 524, which is fixed to the frame 100. A second spring 58 is mounted on the second driving crank 52 so that the second driving crank 52 can be quickly reset after the moving rod 545 leaves the surface of the driving cam 51. The elastic force of the second spring 58 is relatively weak and does not hinder the retraction of the moving rod 545.

[0063] A sewing machine comprises the thread trimming mechanism.

[0064] The cooperation of the first movable knife and the second movable knife in this embodiment is as follows Figure 4As shown; in this embodiment, the front hole groove 122 of the first movable knife 12 is used as the needle lowering position of the needle to perform the thread cutting action in the sewing start stage; the thread hooking groove 123 of the first movable knife 12 is used to perform the thread cutting action at the end of the sewing stage.

[0065] The thread trimming method of the thread trimming mechanism at the beginning of the seam, such as Figure 9 As shown:

[0066] (1) Position a0 is the initial position of the drive assembly;

[0067] (2) The driving assembly rotates clockwise from the a0 position to the a1 position, the first movable knife 12 moves forward, and the second movable knife 22 does not move; the corresponding transmission process is: the driving assembly drives the first crank 41, the first connecting rod 42 and the first movable knife assembly 10, and the first movable knife 12 moves toward the needle direction; during this process, the front hole groove 122 of the first movable knife 12 has passed the needle position; the driving assembly simultaneously drives the driving cam 51, and the wheel surface of the driving cam 51 abuts against the end 544 of the moving rod and compresses the moving rod; at the a1 position, the driving cam has rotated past the change node, and the wheel surface of the driving cam abuts against the side 543 of the moving rod; as shown Figure 5 and 6 As shown, before the change node, the driving cam cannot drive the second crank 52 by rotating counterclockwise or clockwise. After the change node, the driving cam can drive the second crank 52 by rotating counterclockwise.

[0068] (3) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a1 to position a2, and the first movable knife 12 retreats to the front hole slot 122 below the needle; the controller then controls the needle to first pass downward through the front hole slot 122, then upwardly exit the front hole slot 122 and be lifted to a suitable position (the suitable position must ensure that the movement of the first movable knife 12 is not disturbed, and the needle is generally lifted to the top of the needle plate); at this time, the upper thread on the needle will remain in the front hole slot 122;

[0069] (4) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a2 to position a3, at which time the first movable knife 12 and the second movable knife 22 move toward each other; the front hole groove 122 of the first movable knife 12 drives the end of the face thread toward the second movable knife; the second cutting edge 221 of the second movable knife 22 slides toward the front hole groove 122; at position a3, the second cutting edge 221 cooperates with the first cutting edge 121 to cut the face thread; the corresponding transmission process is as follows: the tangent crank shaft 103 rotates counterclockwise, the first crank 41 drives the first movable knife backward; the wheel surface of the driving cam abuts against the side portion 543 of the moving rod, driving the second movable knife forward;

[0070] (5) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a3 to position a4, and the first movable knife 12 and the second movable knife 22 continue to move toward each other; at position a4, after the outermost wheel surface of the driving cam passes the side portion 543 of the moving rod, the second movable knife 22 moves to the limit position and is reset under the action of the spring;

[0071] (6) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a4 to position a0, and the first movable knife 12 also completes the reset.

[0072] The sewing thread of the thread trimming mechanism at the end of sewing stage is a twisted combination of the upper thread and the lower thread; the transmission process at the end of sewing stage is consistent with the transmission process at the start of sewing stage, so it will not be expanded in detail.

[0073] The thread trimming method of the thread trimming mechanism at the end of the sewing stage, such as Figure 9 As shown:

[0074] (1) Position a0 is the initial position of the drive assembly;

[0075] (2) The driving assembly rotates clockwise from position a0 to position a1, the first movable knife 12 moves forward, and the second movable knife 22 does not move; the thread hooking groove 123 of the first movable knife 12 is used to clamp the sewing thread;

[0076] (3) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a1 to position a3, at which point the first movable knife 12 and the second movable knife 22 move toward each other; the thread hooking groove 123 of the first movable knife 12 drives the sewing thread toward the second movable knife, and the sewing thread automatically snaps into the receiving groove and then presses against the first cutting edge 121 of the front hole groove 122; the second cutting edge 221 of the second movable knife 22 slides toward the front hole groove 122; at position a3, the second cutting edge 221 cooperates with the first cutting edge 121 to cut the sewing thread;

[0077] (4) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a3 to position a4, and the first movable knife 12 and the second movable knife 22 continue to move toward each other; at position a4, the second movable knife is reset under the action of the spring;

[0078] (5) The driving assembly rotates counterclockwise from position a4 to position a0, and the first movable knife 12 also completes the reset.

[0079] The main difference between the end of sewing stage and the start of sewing stage is the early process of the first moving knife hooking the sewing thread.

[0080] Example 2, as a new variation, Figure 11As shown, the shape of the new first movable knife 80 has been changed. The original front hole groove 122 and the thread hooking groove 123 are merged into a new joint groove 801. A second cutting edge 802 is provided on the front side of the joint groove 801, and a second thread hooking groove 803 is provided on the back side of the joint groove. The steps of the new first movable knife 80 in the sewing starting stage and the sewing ending stage are the same; Figure 9 At position a1, the joint groove 801 of the new first movable knife 80 allows the needle to insert the needle and complete the upper thread hooking at the beginning of the seam. The second thread hooking groove 803 of the joint groove 801 completes the sewing thread hooking at the end of the sewing. From position a1, the machine moves directly to position a3 for thread trimming, and the subsequent steps remain unchanged.

[0081] Embodiment 3: This embodiment is basically the same as embodiment 1, except that the transmission structure is different, specifically, the structures of the first transmission assembly and the second transmission assembly are different.

[0082] The first transmission assembly 40 includes a third crank 61, a slider 66, a chute 62, a first transmission shaft 63, a fourth crank 64, and a third connecting rod 65. The third crank 61 is fixed to the motor shaft. A slider 66 is hingedly connected to the swinging end of the third crank 61. The slider 66 is disposed within a sliding groove 621 of the chute 62, which is fixed to the first transmission shaft 63. The swinging of the third crank 61 drives the first transmission shaft 63 to swing. The fourth crank 64 is fixed to the other end of the first transmission shaft 63, and the first movable blade assembly 10 is driven by the third connecting rod 65. The combination of the slider 66 and the chute 62 allows the third crank to rotate 360 ​​degrees without hindrance. That is, the motor can rotate 360 ​​degrees. During one rotation of the motor, the first movable blade advances and retreats. The angular range corresponding to the retreat of the first movable blade is then allocated to the second transmission assembly, and the second movable blade advances within this angular range, completing the thread trimming operation.

[0083] The second transmission assembly 50 includes a second drive cam 71, a fifth crank 72, a second transmission shaft 73, a sixth crank 74 and a fourth connecting rod 75; the second drive cam and the fifth crank constitute the intermittent motion mechanism 59; the second drive cam is provided with a working curved surface 711 and a non-working curved surface 712, the working curved surface transmits power to the fifth crank 72, and the non-working curved surface isolates the power transmission between the second drive cam and the fifth crank. A roller 721 is installed at the swinging end of the fifth crank 72. The fifth crank is fixed on the second transmission shaft 73, and the second transmission shaft directly or indirectly transmits power to the second movable knife assembly. This design ensures that when the first transmission assembly is working, there is an angle range within which the second transmission assembly is not actually working, thereby achieving the technical purpose of the second movable knife not moving when the first movable knife moves forward.
