DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] A three-eye connecting rod for a high-speed head of an embroidery machine includes a rod body 10, on which are provided a hole 1, a hole 2, and a hole 3. The hole 3 and the hole 2 are located between the holes 1 and 3. The hole 2 is mounted with a shaft 6 or a locking groove 4 for locking the shaft 6; and / or the hole 3 is mounted with a shaft 7 or a locking groove 5 for locking the shaft 7. The axes of the holes 1, 2, and 3 are parallel to each other. Hole 1, located at the lower end, connects to the body of the high-speed machine head. Rod 10 can swing around hole 1. Hole 2, located in the middle, connects to a cam mechanism. This connection is achieved through shaft 1 (6). This solution provides two methods for connecting shaft 1 (6) to hole 2 (2). One is a split-type method, in which shaft 1 (6) is inserted into hole 2 (2) and then locked and secured to hole 2 (2) and shaft 1 (6) via a locking groove. The other method involves first axially securing shaft 1 (6) to hole 2 (2), then installing shaft 1 (6) within hole 2 (2), specifically connecting them via a bearing structure. Similarly, the connection between shaft 2 (7) and hole 3 (3) is similar to the connection between shaft 1 (6) and hole 2 (2). The following sections describe each method separately.

[0028] In this embodiment, shaft 1 (6) and rod 10 are separate components; hole 2 (2) defines a locking groove structure to secure shaft 1 (6). Specifically, locking groove 1 (4) and hole 2 (2) form a notch structure, connecting locking groove 1 (4) and hole 2 (2). Deformation of locking groove 1 (4) under force can cause the inner diameter of hole 2 (2) to change. Specifically, the locking groove extends outward from the inner wall of hole 2 (2). When the upper and lower portions of the locking groove are tightened under force, rod 10 at these portions deforms toward the center of the locking groove, thereby reducing the inner diameter of hole 2 and clamping shaft 1 (6) within hole 2 (2).

[0029] Specifically, the locking groove 1 4 is opened on the side wall of the rod body 10 and communicates with the hole 2 2. The locking groove 1 4 passes through the end faces at both ends of the hole 2. The end faces at both ends are the planes where the openings at the axial ends of the hole 2 are located.

[0030] To facilitate securing, the rod body 10 includes a fixing boss 8, a locking groove 4 defined on the side of the fixing boss 8, and a fixing hole 11 extending through the locking groove 4. The fixing boss 8 is located on one side of the hole 2, and the fixing hole 11 is used to receive a locking screw or bolt. The locking screw or bolt draws the fixing boss 8 portions on either side of the locking groove 4 closer together, thereby narrowing the locking groove 4 and, consequently, the inner diameter of the hole 2, thereby tightening the shaft 6 mounted within the hole 2. The fixing hole 11 can be a threaded hole or a blind hole. The fixing holes 11 are located on either side of the locking hole 1. The fixing hole 11 portion on one side is necessarily a through hole, while the fixing hole 11 portion on the other side is a blind hole or a through hole. If the portion is a blind hole, the fixing hole 11 is preferably a threaded hole, with at least the blind hole portion being threaded, allowing a screw to be inserted from the through hole portion into the blind hole portion for securing.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the fixing hole 11 passes through and is fixed on the upper end surface and the lower end surface of the boss 1, that is, the fixing hole 11 is a through hole structure that passes through a part of the boss on both sides of the locking groove 1 4, and the fixing hole 11 is a threaded hole or a smooth hole.

[0033] Example 3

[0034] This embodiment differs from Example 1 in that the locking groove 4 is replaced by an integrated structure of shaft 1 6 and hole 2 2 . Groove 15 is provided on the outer annular surface of shaft 1 6 , and groove 2 16 is provided on the inner wall of hole 2 2 . Roller 13 and retainer 14 are disposed between groove 15 and groove 2 16 . Groove 15 and groove 2 16 form the complete raceway for bearing roller 13 , and together with roller 13, retainer 14, and other components required for the bearing, form a complete bearing structure.

[0035] Example 4

[0036] This embodiment further defines the bearing structure based on the embodiment 3. The groove 1 15 and the groove 2 16 are both double groove structures. The bearing structure formed by the shaft 1 6 and the hole 2 2 and its inner wall is a double groove ball bearing structure.

[0037] Example 5

[0038] This embodiment further defines the structure of hole 3, which can be used in conjunction with the structure of hole 2 in any of the above embodiments. The locking groove 2 and hole 3 form a notch, connecting them. Deformation of the locking groove 5 can cause the inner diameter of hole 3 to change. This achieves the same function as the structural connection between hole 2 and locking groove 1.

[0039] The locking groove 25 is opened on the side wall of the rod body 10 and is connected to the hole 3 3. The locking groove passes through the end faces of both ends of the hole 3. The rod body 10 includes a fixing boss 2 9. The locking groove 25 is opened on the side of the fixing boss 2 9. The fixing boss 2 9 is provided with a fixing hole 2 12, and the fixing hole 2 12 passes through the locking groove 2 5.

[0040] Example 6

[0041] The second fixing hole 12 is further defined based on the fifth embodiment. The second fixing hole 12 passes through the upper and lower end surfaces of the second fixing boss 9. The structure design of the second fixing hole 12 is similar to that of the first locking groove 4, the second hole 2, and the first fixing hole 11.

[0042] Example 7

[0043] This embodiment further defines the structure of hole 3, which can be used in conjunction with the structure of hole 2 in any of embodiments 1-4. Groove 3 17 is provided on the outer annular surface of shaft 2 7, and groove 4 18 is provided on the inner wall of hole 3. Rollers 13 and retainer 14 are disposed between grooves 3 17 and 4 18. Specifically, this embodiment discloses a method for integrally connecting shaft 2 7 and hole 3 through a designed bearing structure. This structure is similar to the connection method between shaft 1 6 and hole 2 in embodiments 3 and 4.

[0044] Example 8

[0045] A double-groove ball bearing is integrated in hole 1, and the outer ring raceway of the double-groove ball bearing is a groove opened on the inner wall of hole 1. This structure is applicable to the three-eye connecting rod structure of all the above embodiments.
