[0023] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0024] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the automatic thread trimming mechanism of the sewing machine provided by the utility model is now described. The automatic thread trimming mechanism of the sewing machine includes a base plate 1, an inserting plate 3, a shearing rod 4 and a pushing member 5. The base plate 1 is used to be fixed to the operating table 2 of the sewing machine; the inserting plate 3 is slidably arranged on the base plate 1 in the horizontal direction, and a lower cutting edge is provided on the inserting plate 3; the middle part of the shearing rod 4 is hingedly arranged on the base plate 1, and the shearing rod 4 has the freedom to rotate along the pitch angle on the base plate 1, and an upper cutting edge for engaging with the lower cutting edge is provided on the shearing rod 4; the pushing member 5 is installed on the base plate 1, and the driving end of the pushing member 5 is connected to the inserting plate 3, and is used to drive the inserting plate 3 to move on the base plate 1.
[0025] Compared to the prior art, the automatic thread trimming mechanism for a sewing machine provided in this embodiment comprises a base plate 1 with a slot disposed therein, a plug plate 3 slidably disposed within the slot, and a lower cutting edge and a clearance for the upper cutting edge disposed at one end of the plug plate 3. The end of the plug plate 3 with the lower cutting edge can slide out of the base plate 1, thereby allowing the lower cutting edge to slide out of the base plate 1. During use, when the sewing machine is sewing a product, the plug plate 3 slides into the base plate 1 to avoid interfering with the product's movement and transport. When the product is sewn, the pusher 5 drives the plug plate 3 out of the base plate 1. Once the product is sewn, the pusher 5 drives the plug plate 3 to slide out of the base plate 1. Once the product is sewn, the plug plate 3 is positioned below the sewing thread, positioning the sewing thread at the lower cutting edge. The shear lever 4 is then pushed to swing, causing the upper cutting edge of the shear lever 4 to engage with the lower cutting edge, thereby cutting the sewing thread. After cutting is completed, the shear lever 4 drives the upper cutting edge to swing upward, and the pusher 5 retracts the plug plate 3. This effectively prevents interference with product transport and sewing, ensuring a perfect sewing effect.
[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, an oblong through hole is provided at the end of the inserting plate 3 along the sliding direction of the inserting plate 3 , and the lower cutting edge is located on the inner wall of the oblong through hole.
[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the base plate 1 is mounted on the operating table 2 of the sewing machine, the sliding direction of the inserting plate 3 and the conveying direction of the product are perpendicular to each other.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the pusher 5 is a push cylinder or an electric push rod. The control method of the working state of the pusher 5 adopts the existing technology and will not be elaborated here.
[0029] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the inserting plate 3 slides out from the bottom plate 1 , the lower cutting edge on the inserting plate 3 is in a state ready to engage with the upper cutting edge.
[0030] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned plugboard 3 can be used as follows Figure 2 、 Figure 3 See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The end of the insert plate 3 is bent downward and provided with a guide portion 31 for guiding the sewing thread to move above the insert plate 3. The guide portion 31 is slidably mounted on the operating table 2 of the sewing machine. The guide portion 31 is always located outside the base plate 1. The guide portion 31 is gradually bent downward in a direction away from the insert plate 3. The end of the guide portion 31 away from the insert plate 3 abuts against the operating table 2 of the sewing machine. Therefore, when the insert plate 3 slides out of the outside of the base plate 1, it can guide the sewing thread to move above the insert plate 3, so that the sewing thread is located above the lower cutting edge.
[0031] Optionally, in this embodiment, the sewing thread can be placed above the inserting plate 3 by an operator.
[0032] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned plugboard 3 can be used as follows Figure 2 、 Figure 3 See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The middle part of the inserting plate 3 protrudes upward and is provided with a pushing portion 32. The pushing portion 32 can abut against the end of the shearing rod 4 away from the upper cutting edge, and is used to push the shearing rod 4 to swing. An elastic member 6 is also provided between the shearing rod 4 and the base plate 1 for pulling the end of the shearing rod 4 with the upper cutting edge to swing upward. When the inserting plate 3 moves outward, the pushing portion 32 can abut against the end of the shearing rod 4, thereby driving the end of the shearing rod 4 away from the upper cutting edge to swing upward, so as to achieve the effect of the upper cutting edge swinging downward. When the pushing member 5 pushes the inserting plate 3 outward to a certain distance, the action of the upper cutting edge swinging downward can be achieved at the same time. The action of the shearing rod 4 and the inserting plate 3 can be completed by the pushing member 5 alone.
[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the elastic member 6 is a tension spring, one end of the elastic member 6 is mounted on the end of the shear rod 4 away from the upper cutting edge, and the other end is mounted on the base plate 1 .
[0034] In some embodiments, the pushing portion 32 may be configured as follows: Figure 2 、 Figure 3 See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The top surface of the pushing portion 32 is an inclined surface, and the height of the pushing portion 32 gradually decreases as it approaches the shear rod 4. The pushing portion 32 extends from the top surface of the bottom plate 1, which facilitates connection with the pushing member 5. At the same time, the top surface of the pushing portion 32 is an inclined surface. When the pushing portion 32 contacts the end of the shear rod 4, it can gradually push the shear rod 4 to swing the upper cutting edge downward, thereby achieving the operation of cutting the sewing thread.
[0035] In some embodiments, the shear bar 4 may be Figure 3 The structure shown. Figure 3 A guide wheel 41 is rotatably mounted on the end of the shear lever 4. When the inserting plate 3 moves outward from the base plate 1, the pusher 32 abuts against the guide wheel 41. A guide wheel 41 is rotatably mounted on the end of the shear lever 4. The axis of the guide wheel 41 is spaced parallel to the axis of the hinge of the shear lever 4 on the base plate 1. When the inserting plate 3 moves outward a certain distance, the guide wheel 41 abuts against the pusher 32, and the shear lever 4 is flipped by the guidance between the pusher 32 and the guide wheel 41.
[0036] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 1 may be formed as follows: Figure 3 The structure shown. Figure 3 The base plate 1 is provided with a mounting seat 7 for mounting the shear rod 4. The middle portion of the shear rod 4 is hingedly mounted on the mounting seat 7. The axis of the hinge shaft of the shear rod 4 on the mounting seat 7 is defined as the first direction. The mounting seat 7 is provided with a baffle 71. The shear rod 4 abuts against the baffle 71 to limit the movement of the shear rod 4 in the first direction. The top of the base plate 1 is provided with a mounting seat 7 for mounting the shear rod 4. The middle portion of the shear rod 4 is hingedly mounted on the mounting seat 7. The mounting seat 7 is provided with a baffle 71. The shear rod 4 abuts against the baffle 71, thereby preventing the shear rod 4 from moving in the first direction and ensuring the stability of the upper cutting edge position.
[0037] Optionally, in this embodiment, a mounting shaft is fixedly mounted on the baffle 71 , the shear rod 4 is rotatably mounted on the mounting shaft, and a limiting portion for limiting the shear rod 4 on the baffle 71 is provided on the mounting shaft.
[0038] Preferably, in this embodiment, there are two baffles 71 , which are respectively located on both sides of the shear rod 4 , and are used to limit the shear rod 4 from moving along the first direction, thereby effectively ensuring the position of the upper cutting edge.
[0039] In some embodiments, the shear bar 4 may be Figure 4 The structure shown. Figure 4 , a blade 8 is detachably mounted on the shear rod 4, and the upper cutting edge is located on the blade 8. A blade 8 is detachably mounted on the end of the shear rod 4, and the upper cutting edge is located on the blade 8, which is convenient for replacing the upper cutting edge and facilitating the position of the upper cutting edge in the later stage.
[0040] In some embodiments, the blade 8 may be Figure 4 The structure shown.

A groove for mounting the blade 8 is provided at one end of the shear rod 4. The blade 8 is placed inside the groove, and the side of the blade 8 away from the upper cutting edge rests against the retaining wall. This improves the stability of the position of the blade 8 when cutting the sewing thread. The pressure block 9 is fixed to the shear rod 4 by bolts, and a protrusion is provided on the pressure block 9 for squeezing the blade 8 against the bottom of the groove. This further improves the stability of the fixation of the blade 8.
[0041] Preferably, in this embodiment, gaskets are provided between the blade 8 and the shear rod 4 and between the blade 8 and the pressure block 9. By adjusting the position of the gasket, the position of the blade 8 along the first direction can be adjusted to ensure effective engagement between the upper cutting edge and the lower cutting edge.
