Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of embroidery machines, in particular to a parallel mechanism used for embroidery machines. Background Art
[0002] An embroidery machine is an automated machine used to sew patterns or designs onto fabric or other materials in the form of embroidery.
[0003] For example, an embroidery machine head with publication number CN214060896U includes a head housing, a guide rod is vertically fixed at the front of the head housing, a presser foot driver and a needle bar driver are axially spaced and movably arranged on the guide rod, the needle bar driver is connected to the needle bar driving mechanism, and the presser foot driver is connected to the presser foot driving mechanism. The utility model switches the needle bar to a state of being connected to drop the needle and disconnected from not dropping the needle during high-speed embroidery. When the needle bar is not required to drop the needle, the needle bar is disconnected from the needle bar driver to avoid the high-speed needle bar hitting the presser foot and damaging mechanical parts. To reconnect the needle bar and make it fall again, the clutch structure only needs to be rotated to the initial position, and the needle bar is driven to continue to fall by the needle bar driver. The utility model has a high degree of automation, and the connection or disconnection switching of the needle bar is simple and fast, with strong practicality and stability, reducing the loss of needle bar dropping due to lock motor failure.
[0004] An embroidery machine head in the above technical solution reduces the loss of needle bar needle drop caused by the failure of the locking motor by connecting or disconnecting the needle bar. In the actual production process, when the embroidery machine is in operation, it is generally adopted to process the fabric in a manner of equidistantly arranged multiple needles. When only a single row of needles is used to embroider the fabric, due to the elastic properties of the fabric itself, this elasticity may cause the fabric to move during the embroidery process, thereby affecting the overall quality of the embroidery.

[0033] A mounting groove 4 in a ring shape is provided on the top of the base plate 1 , and the mounting groove 4 is located outside the top of the reserved hole 2 , and an anti-collision ring 5 is fixedly connected inside the mounting groove 4 , and the anti-collision ring 5 is made of elastic material.
[0034] A connecting rod 12 is rotatably connected inside the connecting seat 8, and one end of the connecting rod 12 away from the connecting seat 8 is fixedly connected to a connecting sleeve 13. Three connecting rods 12 are provided, and the inner ends of the three connecting rods 12 extend toward the direction of the linkage structure.
[0035] The linkage structure is provided with a linkage plate 14 , and the linkage plate 14 is set to an equilateral triangle structure, and the linkage plate 14 is vertically distributed relative to the base plate 1 in a direction.
[0036] Three connecting rods 15 distributed in an annular shape are fixedly connected to the outside of the linkage plate 14 , and the outside of the connecting rods 15 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting sleeve 13 , and the connecting sleeve 13 has a certain sliding space outside the connecting rods 15 .
[0037] A pinhole 16 is provided in the middle of the linkage plate 14, and three positioning holes 17 distributed in a ring shape are provided inside the linkage plate 14, and the positioning holes 17 are distributed outside the pinhole 16.

[0038] Embodiment 2:
[0039] Based on the first embodiment, the specific working principle is as follows:
[0040] The parallel mechanism for an embroidery machine is installed on the embroidery machine as a whole through a plurality of mounting holes 3 on a base plate 1, so that the parallel mechanism as a whole is located on the embroidery head of the embroidery machine, so that the parallel mechanism is located between the embroidery head and the cloth, and the embroidery needle passes through the needle hole 16, so that the embroidery needle passes through the reserved hole 2 when moving downward, so that the base plate 1 does not interfere with the movement of the embroidery needle, and at the same time, the linkage plate 14 is installed on the bottom of the embroidery head through the positioning hole 17. During the operation of the embroidery needle, the embroidery needle will move downward periodically, and at this time, the needle head will drive the linkage plate 14 to perform vertical periodic movement;
[0041] When the linkage plate 14 performs vertical periodic motion, the linkage plate 14 will drive the connecting rod 15 to follow the linkage plate 14 to move vertically, so that the connecting rod 15 drives the connecting sleeve 13 to move vertically, and then the connecting sleeve 13 drives the connecting rod 12 to move vertically, and the connecting seat 8 is driven up and down by the connecting rod 12. When the connecting seat 8 moves up and down, the connecting seat 8 will drive the piston rod 7 to slide up and down inside the fixed sleeve 6. In the process of the fixed sleeve 6 sliding downward, the fixed sleeve 6 will drive the support block 11 and the extension rod 10 to move downward. When the fixed sleeve 6 slides downward, the embroidery needle slides downward. When the embroidery needle contacts the cloth, the support block 11 will also contact the cloth. The three support blocks 11 contact the cloth at the same time. The three support blocks 11 support the cloth at the same time, reducing the movement amplitude of the cloth between the three support blocks 11, maintaining the stability of the processing position of the embroidery needle on the cloth, and preventing the cloth from being displaced during the embroidery process, which affects the overall quality of the embroidery.
[0042] The linkage plate 14 is connected to the piston structure through the connecting rod 12 as a whole. When the linkage plate 14 moves, multiple piston structures can be driven to move simultaneously. The linkage plate 14 and the connecting sleeve 13 are non-rigidly connected, and the connection between the connecting rod 12 and the piston rod 7 is also non-rigidly connected. When the embroidery machine is performing embroidery operations, it needs to perform a large amount of vertical reciprocating motion. Through the non-rigid connection between the connecting rod 12 and the piston rod 7 and between the linkage plate 14 and the connecting sleeve 13, the connecting rod 12, the piston rod 7, the linkage plate 14 and the connecting sleeve 13 follow the movement of the embroidery machine. Through the movable connection mode of the parts connecting rod 12, the piston rod 7, the linkage plate 14 and the connecting sleeve 13, when the connecting rod 12, the piston rod 7, the linkage plate 14 and the connecting sleeve 13 are subjected to force, the slight movement of the connection improves their overall flexibility, thereby improving the service life of the parallel mechanism.
