Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a sewing machine presser foot, and more particularly to an active low-resistance fabric drag presser foot. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional sewing machines typically use a single feed dog to move the fabric. The presser foot presses the fabric down, while the lower feed dog lifts up, working together to move the fabric away from the needle plate and forward or backward. Sewing machines usually require sewing two layers of fabric together with needle and thread. During fabric feeding, the lower feed dog is the active force, moving the fabric forward or backward, while the presser foot passively holds the fabric in place, creating friction between the fabric and the feed dog. However, when the presser foot presses the fabric, friction is also generated between the presser foot and the fabric, and these two frictional forces are in opposite directions. Therefore, during sewing, the two layers of fabric may shift. This is especially true for slippery fabrics such as polyester and silk, where the friction between the two layers is lower, making shifting more likely. This results in uneven, bulging, and twisting of the sewn fabric, causing wrinkles and unevenness.
[0003] To solve the problem of friction between the presser foot and the fabric, a presser foot with rollers has been developed, such as... Figure 1 The device features a free roller at the rear of the presser foot assembly, which reduces friction. However, the front of the presser foot still rubs against the fabric, causing displacement. Furthermore, the roller creates an angle between the presser foot and the fabric, reducing their contact area and hindering the feed dog from effectively moving the upper fabric.

[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0035] Example 1
[0036] Please see Figures 2 to 4 As shown, an active low-resistance mop presser foot includes a presser foot connecting frame 1, a first mop wheel 2 and a presser foot plate 3 rotatably connected below the presser foot connecting frame 1, a first mop motor 4 fixed to the rear side, and a push-pull mechanism 5 fixed to the right side, wherein:
[0037] The first mop motor 4 is connected to the first mop wheel 2 and drives it to rotate, thereby driving the fabric forward from above and avoiding relative displacement between the upper and lower layers of fabric.
[0038] The push-pull mechanism 5 has a push-pull rod 6 at its bottom. The up-and-down movement of the push-pull rod 6 is controlled by the push-pull mechanism 5. The push-pull rod 6 is hinged to the right end of the presser foot plate 3, and the left end of the presser foot plate 3 is tilted upward. With this design, when the fabric stops moving, the push-pull mechanism 5 pushes the push-pull rod 6 downward. At this time, the left end of the presser foot plate 3 is lifted upward and does not contact the fabric, thereby reducing friction, eliminating fabric displacement, and solving the problem of wrinkling during fabric sewing.
[0039] It should be noted that this utility model also includes a controller, which is electrically connected to the first mop motor 4 and the push-pull mechanism 5 to coordinate their start and stop times. Specifically, the movement of the fabric is usually intermittent. Therefore, under the control of the controller, the first mop motor 4 can be started and the push-pull rod 6 can be pushed out when the fabric is moving, so that the left end of the presser foot 3 is raised. When sewing, the first mop motor 4 can be turned off and the push-pull rod 6 can be pulled back, so that the left end of the presser foot 3 presses down on the fabric to ensure the sewing effect.
[0040] Understandably, to prevent the motor from touching the cloth or tabletop, the first mop motor 4 is an eccentric motor. On the one hand, it can be installed at an upward angle during installation, and on the other hand, it has a built-in reduction gear to effectively increase the motor's output torque and ensure the mopping effect.
[0041] It is worth mentioning that the push-pull mechanism 5 is a push-pull electromagnet, which is small in size and responds quickly.
[0042] It should be added that, since the push-pull rod 6 moves vertically, while the right end of the pressure foot plate 3 moves in an arc, a certain gap needs to be left between the two. Figure 4 The push-pull rod 6 has a horizontally oriented oblong hole 61 at its bottom, and a pin is provided at the right end of the pressure foot plate 3, which passes through the oblong hole 61. Thus, when the push-pull rod 6 moves up and down, the pin will move left and right within the oblong hole 61 without causing motion interference.
[0043] For ease of installation, the top of the presser foot connecting bracket 1 is provided with a mounting bracket 11 for connecting to a sewing machine, and the push-pull mechanism 5 is fixed to the right side of the mounting bracket 11.
[0044] Example 2
[0045] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: Figure 5 and Figure 6 Below the presser foot connecting frame 1, a second mopping wheel 7 is also provided. The second mopping wheel 7 is located on the left side of the presser foot plate 3, and a second mopping motor 8 electrically connected to the controller is fixed to the rear side of the presser foot connecting frame 1. The second mopping motor 8 is connected to the second mopping wheel 7 and drives it to rotate. By setting the second mopping wheel 7 on the left side of the presser foot plate 3, the mopping effect can be improved, and the two ends of the seam can be pressed down during sewing, resulting in a better sewing effect.
[0046] It should be noted that the second mop roller 7 should start and stop synchronously with the first mop roller 2 and rotate at the same speed. Similarly, the second mop motor 8 is also an eccentric motor.
[0047] like Figure 5 The top of the presser foot connector 1 needs to have an opening for the sewing needle to pass through.
[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
