Detailed Implementation

[0031] This utility model discloses an automatic collar attaching machine based on visual positioning, which solves the technical problem that the collar attaching process of existing sweaters still relies on manual operation, resulting in low production efficiency.

[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides an automatic collar attaching machine based on vision positioning, specifically used for the collar attaching process of a round neck sweater. It specifically includes a workbench 1, a main controller, an electric sewing machine 2, a sewing machine control device, a support assembly 3, a correction assembly, and a vision positioning assembly.

[0034] The main controller is electrically connected to the sewing machine control device, and the sewing machine control device is electrically connected to the electric sewing machine 2 to control the sewing action and sewing path of the electric sewing machine 2;

[0035] The electric sewing machine 2 is mounted on the workbench 1. The electric sewing machine 2 includes a sewing table 202 and a needle 201 for sewing the collar to be sewn through the sewing table 202.

[0036] The support component 3 is mounted on the workbench 1 to support the collar to be sewn.

[0037] The visual positioning component is installed on the workbench 1 and electrically connected to the main controller. The camera end of the visual positioning component is set facing the sewing table 202. The visual positioning component is used to detect the position of the seam eye of the collar to be sewn.

[0038] The correction component is installed on the sewing table 202 and electrically connected to the main controller. The correction component is used to adjust the position of the collar to be sewn according to the position of the seam eye so that the seam eye corresponds to the needle 201.

[0039] It should be noted that the electric sewing machine 2 in this embodiment is a commercially available electric sewing machine 2. The electric sewing machine 2 can complete the corresponding sewing action and sewing path under the drive of the sewing machine control device. Under the control of the sewing machine control device, the needle 201 of the electric sewing machine 2 can be driven to move up and down to perform the sewing operation. In addition, the electric sewing machine 2 can automatically move the collar to be sewn during the sewing process. The sewing machine control device and the electric sewing machine 2 mentioned above are specific technologies. This embodiment will not describe them in detail here. Those skilled in the art should understand.

[0040] In this embodiment of the vision-based automatic collar attaching machine, firstly, the support component 3 supports the collar to be sewn. Then, the vision positioning component performs visual detection on the collar to be sewn on the sewing table 202 to obtain the specific position of the seam hole. The vision detection component sends the detected seam hole position to the main controller. If the seam hole position corresponds to the position of the needle 201, the main controller controls the needle 201 to start sewing through the sewing machine control device. If there is a deviation between the seam hole position and the position of the needle 201, the main controller controls the correction component to correct the deviation of the collar to be sewn, so that the seam hole and the needle 201 are aligned. Then, the main controller controls the needle 201 to start sewing through the sewing machine control device. In the above design, the visual detection component automatically identifies the specific location of the eyelets on the collar to be sewn, and the correction component corrects the position of the eyelets in a timely manner, so that the needle 201 can automatically and accurately align with each eyelet and complete the sewing work. This design can effectively reduce the difficulty of operation for operators and greatly improve the production efficiency of the collar sewing process.

[0041] Furthermore, the guide assembly in this embodiment includes a mounting plate 301, a first support frame 302, a second support frame 304, a first sleeve 303, and a second sleeve 305;

[0042] The mounting plate 301 is mounted on the workbench 1 and extends along the sewing direction of the collar to be sewn. The first support frame 302 and the second support frame 304 are both mounted on the mounting plate 301, and the first support frame 302 and the second support frame 304 are respectively located at the feed end and the discharge end of the sewing table 202. The first sleeve 303 and the second sleeve 305 are respectively connected to the first support frame 302 and the second support frame 304 for the collar to be sewn.

[0043] It should be noted that, through the above design, when the collar to be sewn is fitted onto the first sleeve 303 and the second sleeve 305, the first sleeve 303 and the second sleeve 305 can work together to support the collar to be sewn, thereby enabling the collar to be sewn to be sewn smoothly.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the mounting plate 301 is provided with a sliding groove extending along the sewing direction of the collar to be sewn, and both the first support frame 302 and the second support frame 304 can be detachably installed on the sliding groove.

[0045] It should be noted that, through the above design, the distance between the first support frame 302 and the second support frame 304 can be changed to accommodate collars of different sizes to be sewn.

[0046] Furthermore, the visual positioning component in this embodiment includes a camera and a light source;

[0047] The camera's shooting end and the light source are both positioned facing the sewing table 202.

[0048] It should be noted that the light source in this embodiment is specifically used to provide light for the camera, so that the camera can clearly acquire the image of the seam of the collar to be sewn.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the correction component is specifically located between the first sleeve 303 and the needle 201, and specifically includes the correction frame 4, the first straight module and the second straight module;

[0050] The correction frame 4 is used to correct the deviation of the collar to be sewn. Specifically, the correction frame 4 is provided with a limiting groove 401 for the collar to be sewn to pass through, and the limiting groove 401 matches the width of the collar to be sewn.

[0051] The first linear module is mounted on the sewing table 202, and the second linear module is connected to the first linear module. The first linear module is used to drive the second linear module to move along the sewing direction of the collar to be sewn. The correction frame 4 is connected to the second linear module, and the second linear module is used to drive the correction frame 4 to move along a first horizontal direction perpendicular to the sewing direction of the collar to be sewn. Simply put, the correction frame 4 can be driven to move in two different horizontal directions, thereby moving the collar to be sewn together, thus adjusting the position of the collar to be sewn, and consequently adjusting the position of the seam hole. In addition, in order to achieve movement in more directions, the above-mentioned correction component may also include more linear modules to enable the correction frame 4 to move in more different directions, thereby making the position adjustment range of the seam hole wider.

[0052] The first linear module and the second linear module are electrically connected to the main controller.

[0053] It should be noted that when the vision detection component detects that the eyelet and the needle 201 do not correspond, the first straight module and the second straight module work together to adjust the position of the correction frame 4, thereby adjusting the position of the collar to be sewn, so that the eyelet can be aligned with the needle 201, and finally the sewing work is completed.

[0054] In addition, the aforementioned straightening frame 4 can be replaced according to different collar sizes.

[0055] Specifically, both the first linear module and the second linear module are linear modules driven by a cylinder or motor in conjunction with a lead screw.

[0056] Furthermore, the vision-based automatic collar attaching machine in this embodiment also includes a loading robot electrically connected to the main controller. The loading robot is used to attach the collar to be sewn onto the first sleeve 303 and the second sleeve 305.

[0057] It should be noted that the above design enables fully automated feeding operations, further improving production material handling.

[0058] The vision-based automatic collar attaching machine in this embodiment also includes a cutting robot electrically connected to the main controller, which is used to cut the sewn products.

[0059] It should be noted that the above design enables fully automated material feeding, further improving production efficiency.

[0060] The above provides a detailed description of an automatic collar loading machine based on visual positioning provided by this utility model. For those skilled in the art, based on the ideas of the embodiments of this utility model, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
