Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a sewing machine needle bar assembly, in particular to a sewing machine needle bar assembly into which a temperature regulating medium can flow and a needle bar structure thereof. Background Art

[0002] The needle bar assembly of a sewing machine refers to the component inside the sewing machine used to perform sewing up and down. It includes the needle bar and the needle. It is mainly responsible for lifting and reciprocating the thread, and then cooperates with the shuttle to hook the thread to form a cross-stitching seam line on the fabric.

[0003] The existing needle bar assembly has no openings and does not have the function of allowing the temperature control medium to flow in. Therefore, the needle bar assembly cannot be effectively temperature controlled. The purpose of the present utility model application is to overcome this technical problem.

[0004] (In addition, since the needle bar assembly of sewing machines on the market has no openings, all sewing machines on the market use an additional set of cooling devices to cool the sewing machines (this is because the needle bar assembly rubs against the sewing material at high speed when moving the thread up and down, thereby generating high temperature. Generally, high-end high-speed sewing machines try to be equipped with additional cooling devices). For example, the patent document number is CN211620830U, and the patent name is: A utility model patent for a needle cooling device in a sewing machine. The specific content of the patent is summarized as: using an additional needle cooling device to blow on the needle on the needle bar assembly to cool the needle, but the use of this additional needle cooling device has the following disadvantages:

[0005] 1. The additional needle cooling device will block the sewing operator's field of vision, making it difficult for the sewing operator to observe the sewing situation;

[0006] 2. The cooling speed is slow and the cooling is unstable;

[0007] 3. Because the additional needle cooling device is an additional installation, it can only be tilted towards the needle. As a result, during the sewing process, the cooling gas ejected by the needle cooling device has kinetic energy that is tilted downward (this kinetic energy is large relative to the thread). This downward kinetic energy causes the thread on the needle to be unevenly stressed and tangled, resulting in disordered rotation and entanglement, resulting in poor sewing quality.

[0008] 4. The additional needle cooling device can only provide a refrigerated air source, but in the face of some special sewing occasions, high temperature heating, liquid nitrogen, and oil temperature cooling are required, which cannot be achieved in this case. Utility Model Content

[0045] The working principle of a sewing machine needle bar assembly capable of allowing a temperature regulating medium to flow into an embodiment of the present utility model is explained in the following second embodiment.

[0046] The working advantages of a sewing machine needle bar assembly capable of allowing a temperature regulating medium to flow into the embodiment of the present utility model are explained in the following embodiment 2.

[0047] Example 2:

[0048] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a needle bar 1 structure, including a sewing machine needle bar assembly into which a temperature-regulating medium can flow as described in Example 1, wherein the top of the first connecting channel 3A of the needle bar 1 of the sewing machine needle bar assembly into which a temperature-regulating medium can flow is connected to a medium inflow pipeline, one end of the medium inflow pipeline is connected to a switch regulating valve, and one end of the switch regulating valve is connected to a medium supply source.

[0049] Among them, the above-mentioned medium inflow pipeline, switch regulating valve and medium supply source are existing technologies and are not shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0050] The working principle of this needle bar structure is:

[0051] S1: The medium supply source provides a gaseous medium or a liquid medium. The gaseous medium includes warm water vapor, high-temperature gas (some sewing materials are brittle in cold conditions and require the needle 2 to be heated to achieve better sewing results), cold air (some sewing materials cause the needle 2 to become hot during sewing friction, which can easily melt the sewing materials and requires the needle 2 to be cooled). The liquid medium includes liquid nitrogen (which has a good cooling effect and is suitable for expensive or new sewing materials).

[0052] S2: By switching the regulating valve on and off and controlling the size, the medium supply source is controlled to provide a certain amount, which is then delivered to the first inlet 30 of the medium inflow channel of the needle rod 1 through the medium inflow pipeline;

[0053] S3: Then, the medium in the medium inflow channel flows sequentially to the first medium flow channel 32, the second medium flow channel 35, the guide channel 36 and the guide port 37 of the guide channel 36;

[0054] S4: Then, the medium source has downward kinetic energy, which pushes the medium source downward from the first groove 38, so that the medium source flows downward along the first groove 38 to the threading hole 4, thereby quickly and stably adjusting the temperature of the entire machine needle 2.

[0055] S5: Furthermore, the first groove 38 is longer than the second groove 5. In actual work, the thread of the needle 2 passes through the threading hole 4 on one side of the long first groove 38 to the other end of the threading hole 4 on the side of the short second groove 5 (this is based on the actual regulations of the sewing machine structure, and this cannot be reversed. Otherwise, sewing cannot work normally). Since the medium source flows downward and the direction of the medium source flow is away from the other end of the threading hole 4, the thread in the threading hole 4 will not be disordered, ensuring that the thread of the needle 2 and the hook of the shuttle cooperate normally.

[0056] The working advantages of this needle bar 1 structure are: by switching the regulating valve on and off or adjusting the size, the size of the medium source entering the medium inflow pipeline is controlled, and finally the size of the medium source of the sewing machine needle 2 rod 1 assembly is controlled, thereby ensuring that the sewing needle bar 1 assembly can quickly and stably adjust the temperature of the medium flowing out of its own top, and at the same time will not cause the thread on the machine needle 2 to be disordered.

[0057] Example 3:

[0058] The embodiment of the present utility model provides a sewing machine head (the head is prior art and not shown in the accompanying drawings). The sewing machine head is equipped with a sewing machine needle bar assembly as described in the first embodiment, into which a temperature-regulating medium can flow. A medium supply source is installed on the outer side of the sewing machine head. The medium supply source is connected to an on-off regulating valve. The on-off regulating valve is connected to a medium inlet pipeline. The medium inlet pipeline is connected to the medium inlet flow channel 31 of the needle bar 1 of the sewing machine needle bar assembly. The medium inlet pipeline runs through the top of the sewing machine head.

[0059] Example 4:

[0060] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a method for manufacturing a sewing machine needle bar assembly capable of allowing a temperature regulating medium to flow in, as described in the first embodiment.

[0061] The needle bar 1 can be machined or injection molded.

[0062] The needle 2 can be machined (by drilling an oblique hole in the guide channel 36) or injection molded.

[0063] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
