The push rod of the trimmer crank is located at the yielding part of the knife return device and the upper part of the trimmer connecting rod, and the force rod is located above the lifting part. When the trimmer crank starts to press down, the push rod presses down the trimmer connecting rod, so that the force rod and the lifting part are pressed down together, that is, the trimmer connecting rod is pressed down; when the trimmer crank starts to lift, the push rod lifts the yielding part, and the knife return device lifts up to drive the lifting part to lift the force rod, thereby realizing the lifting of the trimmer connecting rod. Here, the knife return device part participates in the thread cutting action and is dedicated to the knife return action, so that the mechanical noise generated by the knife return action of the knife return device is greatly reduced.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following is combined with Figure 1-6 The preferred embodiments of the present application are described in detail so that the advantages and features of the present application can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more explicit definition of the protection scope of the present application. These embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, but not to limit the present invention. In addition, the terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle" and "one" cited in this specification are only for the convenience of description, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention. The change or adjustment of their relative relationship shall also be regarded as the scope of the present invention without substantial change in the technical content.

[0024] Referring to the above drawings, a sewing machine of the present application has a thread trimming mechanism 10, a stitch length adjustment mechanism 20, a presser foot lifting mechanism 30 and a control system, etc. The thread trimming mechanism 10 performs the thread trimming action of the sewing machine under the control of the control system, the stitch length adjustment mechanism 20 performs the stitch length adjustment action of the sewing machine under the control of the control system, and the presser foot lifting mechanism 30 also performs the presser foot lifting action of the sewing machine under the control of the control system. Among them, the thread trimming mechanism 10 and the stitch length adjustment mechanism 20 are realized under the drive of the first driver 11 of the sewing machine, and the presser foot lifting mechanism 30 is realized under the drive of the second driver 31 of the sewing machine. In addition, the first driver 11 is installed and fixed at the side position of the sewing machine head, and the second driver 31 is installed and fixed at the rear position of the sewing machine head. The first driver 11 and the second driver 31 are both electrically connected to the control system.

[0025] The thread trimming mechanism 10 comprises components such as a thread trimming transmission rod 12, a thread trimming crank 13, a thread trimming connecting rod 14, a knife return device 15, a knife return bracket 16 and a thread trimming execution end 17. The first driver 11 has a driving shaft 111 on which the thread trimming transmission rod 12 and a stitch crank 21 are fixed, and the thread trimming crank 13 is sleeved. The thread trimming transmission rod 12 and the thread trimming crank 13 are close to each other.

[0026] Driven by the first driver 11, the thread trimming transmission rod 12 rotates to press down the thread trimming crank 13, which in turn presses down the hinged thread trimming connecting rod 14, and the pressed thread trimming connecting rod 14 causes the indirectly connected thread trimming execution end 17 to execute the thread trimming action. When the thread trimming is completed, the thread trimming knife needs to be returned immediately. Under the reverse drive of the first driver 11, the knife return device 15 is lifted up to drive the thread trimming connecting rod 14 to lift up, and then the thread trimming connecting rod 14 causes the thread trimming execution end 17 to return the knife quickly, completing the reset of the thread trimming mechanism.

[0027] The knife return device 15 is movably arranged on the knife return bracket 16, and the knife return bracket 16 is fixed on the sewing machine body. The knife return device 15 has a lifting portion 151 and a yielding portion 152, the thread trimmer crank 13 has a push rod 131, and the thread trimmer connecting rod 14 has a force rod 141. The push rod 131 of the thread trimmer crank 13 is located above the yielding portion 152 of the knife return device 15 and the thread trimmer connecting rod 14, and the force rod 141 is located above the lifting portion 151. When the thread trimmer crank 13 starts to press down, the push rod 131 presses down the thread trimmer connecting rod 14, so that the force rod 141 and the lifting portion 151 are pressed down together, that is, the thread trimmer connecting rod 14 is pressed down. When the thread trimmer crank 13 starts to lift, the push rod 131 lifts the yielding portion 152, and the knife return device 15 lifts up to drive the lifting portion 151 to lift the force rod 141, thereby realizing the lifting of the thread trimmer connecting rod 14. Here, the knife return device partly participates in the thread trimming action and is dedicated to the knife return action, so that the mechanical noise generated by the knife return action of the knife return device is greatly reduced.

[0028] The stitch length adjustment mechanism 20 comprises components such as a first driver 11, a stitch length crank 21, a stitch length connecting rod 22, a swing seat 23 and a feed dog 24. The stitch length crank 21 is fixed on the drive shaft 111 and is located on the side close to the first driver 11; the stitch length crank 21 is hinged to the stitch length connecting rod 22, and the other end of the stitch length connecting rod 22 is hinged to the swing seat 23, and the swing seat 23 can output a swing source and indirectly transmit the swing source to the feed dog 24. When the stitch length needs to be adjusted, the first driver 11 is driven to rotate a certain angle under the control of the control system, and the swing amplitude of the swing seat 23 is changed by the stitch length crank 21 and the stitch length connecting rod 22, and the feed amplitude of the feed dog 24 is indirectly changed, thereby realizing the stitch length adjustment action of the sewing machine, and the sewing machine can sew at the new stitch length.

[0029] In the above-mentioned thread trimming mechanism 10 and needle length adjustment mechanism 20, the first driver 11 drives these two mechanisms to perform two sewing actions at different times, so that the thread trimming mechanism 10 can be driven without affecting the needle length adjustment mechanism 20; and the needle length adjustment mechanism 20 can be driven without interfering with the thread trimming mechanism 10.

[0030] The presser foot lifting mechanism 30 comprises components such as a second driver 31, a presser foot lifting cam 32, a presser foot lifting lever 33, a presser foot lifting connecting rod 34, a presser foot rod 35 and a presser foot 36. The second driver 31 comprises a driving shaft 311, on which the presser foot lifting cam 32 is fixed, the presser foot lifting lever 33 is movably arranged on the machine body, a shaft sleeve 331 is arranged on the presser foot lifting lever 33, the presser foot lifting cam 32 rotates to contact the shaft sleeve 331 so as to push the presser foot lifting lever 33 to move, the other end of the presser foot lifting lever 33 is hinged to the presser foot lifting connecting rod 34, and the other end of the presser foot lifting connecting rod 34 is indirectly connected to the presser foot rod 35 and the presser foot 36.

[0031] The presser foot lifting cam 32 has a lifting contour surface 321 and an origin contour surface 322. When the second driver 31 is driven, the sleeve 331 is transferred from the origin contour surface 322 of the presser foot lifting cam 32 to the lifting contour surface 321, and the sleeve 331 is gradually pushed. Under the action of the presser foot lifting lever 33, the presser foot lifting connecting rod 34 is pulled. When the sleeve 331 contacts the highest point 3211 of the lifting contour surface 321, the presser foot is at the highest position. When the presser foot is to be lowered, the second driver 31 drives in the reverse direction, and the highest point 3211 begins to separate from the sleeve 331, gradually separates from the lifting contour surface 321 and enters the origin contour surface 322. The second driver 31 stops driving, and the presser foot is placed on the needle plate, completing a presser foot lifting process.
