[0043] Embodiment 1:

[0044] A thread lever clutch device, referring to Figures 1-12 , in particular referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , comprising a head 1, a main shaft 11, a thread lever shaft 21, a thread lever 22, a driving swing arm 12. Wherein, the main shaft 11 is transversely arranged and penetrates the head 1, the thread lever shaft 21 is transversely arranged on the head 1, and the driving swing arm 12 is driven by the main shaft 11 to reciprocate. The thread lever 22 has a matching part 23, and the thread lever 22 has two states, one of which is that the matching part 23 of the thread lever 22 cooperates with the driving swing arm 12, so that the thread lever 22 is driven by the driving swing arm 12 to reciprocate around the axis of the thread lever shaft 21 as the rotation axis, so that the thread lever 22 can pull the surface thread of the corresponding needle bar in the embroidery process to adjust the supply amount of the surface thread and keep the tension of the thread balanced; the other state is that the matching part 23 of the thread lever 22 is separated from the driving swing arm 12, so that the corresponding needle bar of the thread lever 22 stops pulling the surface thread when the corresponding needle bar stops embroidering. The thread lever 22 can move in the axial positive direction or in the axial reverse direction of the thread lever shaft 21, the axial positive direction refers to the direction in which the matching part 23 gradually approaches the driving swing arm 12, and the axial reverse direction refers to the direction in which the matching part 23 gradually moves away from the driving swing arm 12, and the axial positive movement of the thread lever 22 makes the matching part 23 cooperate with the driving swing arm 12, and the axial reverse movement makes the matching part 23 separate from the driving swing arm 12.

[0045] The thread lever clutch device further comprises a transmission assembly and a driving mechanism, wherein the transmission assembly has an actuating swing lever 31, the actuating swing lever 31 can swing in the positive direction and in the reverse direction around its rotation support point, the positive swing of the actuating swing lever 31 matches the axial positive movement of the thread lever 22, and the reverse swing matches the axial reverse movement of the thread lever 22, and the driving mechanism is used to drive the actuating swing lever 31 to swing in the positive direction and in the reverse direction.

[0046] In an embodiment, the axial positive movement of the thread lever 22 is driven by the positive swing of the actuating swing lever 31, that is, under the driving of the positive swing of the actuating swing lever 31, the thread lever shaft 21 moves in the positive direction so that the matching part 23 cooperates with the driving swing arm 12 to drive the driving swing arm 12 to reciprocate the thread lever 22 to pull the thread; the axial reverse movement of the thread lever 22 is driven by the reverse swing of the actuating swing lever 31, that is, under the driving of the reverse swing of the actuating swing lever 31, the thread lever shaft 21 moves in the reverse direction so that the matching part 23 separates from the driving swing arm 12.

[0047] In another embodiment, the thread tension lever clutch device is further provided with an elastic reset member 24. One of the axial forward movement and the axial reverse movement of the thread tension lever 22 is driven by the swing of the actuating swing lever 31, and the other is driven by the elastic recovery of the elastic reset member 24. For example, the axial reverse movement of the thread tension lever 22 is driven by the elastic recovery of the elastic reset member 24, that is, the elastic reset member 24 is elastically deformed during the axial forward movement of the thread tension lever 22, and the thread tension lever shaft 21 moves reversely under the driving of the elastic force generated by the elastic recovery of the elastic reset member 24. In the case where one of the axial forward movement and the axial reverse movement of the thread tension lever 22 is driven by the elastic reset member 24, the thread tension lever clutch device must be provided with the elastic reset member 24, and the elastic reset member 24 can not be provided in the former embodiment.

[0048] In the present embodiment, the axial forward movement of the thread tension lever 22 is directly driven by the forward and reverse swing of the actuating swing lever 31, so that the cooperation part 23 cooperates with the driving swing arm 12 and forms a rigid mechanical linkage, so that the reciprocating swing power of the driving swing arm 12 can be transmitted to the thread tension lever 22 without delay; the axial reverse movement of the thread tension lever 22 is driven by the reverse swing of the actuating swing lever 31 or the intervention of the elastic reset member 24, so that the cooperation part 23 and the driving swing arm 12 can be quickly separated, so that the thread tension lever 22 stops reciprocating swing to avoid repeated friction of the embroidery thread and the thread tension lever 22 and even cause the embroidery thread to break.

[0049] As for the movement mode of the thread tension lever shaft 21, there are two modes, the first mode is that the thread tension lever shaft 21 is axially movable on the machine head 1, and the axial movement of the thread tension lever 22 relative to the thread tension lever shaft 21 is limited, and the second mode is that the axial movement of the thread tension lever shaft 21 on the machine head 1 is limited, and the thread tension lever 22 is axially movable along the thread tension lever shaft 21. Both modes can realize the axial bidirectional movement of the thread tension lever 22, so that the cooperation part 23 of the thread tension lever 22 cooperates with or separates from the driving swing arm 12.

The driving part 311 of the driving swing lever 31 is located between the forward abutting part 251 and the reverse abutting part 252. When the driving mechanism drives the driving swing lever 31 to swing forward, the driving part 311 of the driving swing lever 31 abuts against the forward abutting part 251 of the matching component 25 and exerts a pushing force on the forward abutting part 251, thereby driving the thread tension lever shaft 21 and the thread tension lever 22 to move along the axial direction in a forward direction under the driving of the forward swing of the driving swing lever 31, so that the matching part 23 cooperates with the driving swing arm 12; when the driving swing lever 31 swings reversely, the driving part 311 of the driving swing lever 31 abuts against the reverse abutting part 252 of the matching component 25 and exerts a pushing force on the reverse abutting part 252, thereby driving the thread tension lever shaft 21 and the thread tension lever 22 to move along the axial direction in a reverse direction under the driving of the reverse swing of the driving swing lever 31, so that the matching part 23 is separated from the driving swing arm 12.

[0051] In the second embodiment of the first mode, referring to Figure 4 The thread tension lever shaft 21 is slidingly connected to the machine head 1 and can move along the axial direction of the thread tension lever shaft 21, and the axial movement of the thread tension lever 22 is limited. The thread tension lever shaft 21 is provided with a matching component 25, and the matching component 25 has a forward abutting part 251 and a reverse abutting part 252, which are arranged in a transverse direction and spaced apart from each other. The driving part 311 of the driving swing lever 31 is located between the forward abutting part 251 and the reverse abutting part 252. When the driving mechanism drives the driving swing lever 31 to swing forward, the driving part 311 of the driving swing lever 31 abuts against the forward abutting part 251 of the matching component 25 and exerts a pushing force on the forward abutting part 251, thereby driving the thread tension lever shaft 21 and the thread tension lever 22 to move along the axial direction in a forward direction under the driving of the forward swing of the driving swing lever 31, so that the matching part 23 cooperates with the driving swing arm 12; when the driving swing lever 31 swings reversely, the driving part 311 of the driving swing lever 31 abuts against the reverse abutting part 252 of the matching component 25 and exerts a pushing force on the reverse abutting part 252, thereby driving the thread tension lever shaft 21 and the thread tension lever 22 to move along the axial direction in a reverse direction under the driving of the reverse swing of the driving swing lever 31, so that the matching part 23 is separated from the driving swing arm 12.

[0052] In the above two embodiments, the thread tension lever 22 can be fixedly sleeved on the thread tension lever shaft 21, and when the matching part 23 of the thread tension lever 22 matches the driving swing arm 12, the thread tension lever 22 and the thread tension lever shaft 21 jointly swing back and forth around the axis of the thread tension lever shaft 21.

By arranging the sliding block 422 and the guide shaft 451 in sliding connection, the axial movement of the push-pull rod 42 can be prevented from deviation or shaking, thereby ensuring the transmission accuracy.

[0060] In the above two embodiments, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the groove g has a holding section at the minimum stroke and the maximum stroke of the push-pull rod 42. When the transmission member 421 slides along the holding section, the push-pull rod 42 maintains its minimum stroke or maximum stroke. Since the holding section is arranged in the groove g, the control accuracy of the driving motor 41 can be reduced. Even if the driving motor 41 drives the groove cam 43 or the cylindrical cam 44 to rotate by too much or too little, as long as the transmission member 421 is located in the holding section, the push-pull rod 42 will maintain the maximum stroke or the minimum stroke, and will not move axially to change the stroke of the push-pull rod 42, thereby ensuring the forward and reverse swing angles of the actuating swing rod 31, and ensuring the accuracy of the engagement and disengagement of the thread picking rod 22.

[0061] In the above two embodiments, the driving motor 41 is set as an alternating current motor. The alternating current motor has the advantages of low cost, simple structure and convenient maintenance. Since the alternating current motor does not need a commutator and brush structure, the manufacturing cost and maintenance cost are lower than those of the direct current motor, and the service life is longer. The disadvantage of the alternating current motor is the insufficient control accuracy. Since the above two embodiments can reduce the requirement for control accuracy by setting the retaining section in the groove g, the disadvantage of the alternating current motor can be compensated.

[0062] With reference to Figure 2 For the cooperation between the cooperation part 23 and the driving swing arm 12, the cooperation part 23 of the thread lifting lever 22 has a clamping groove 231. The clamping groove 231 and the end of the driving swing arm 12 are clamped and cooperated when the thread lifting lever 22 moves along the axial direction of the thread lifting lever shaft 21 in the forward direction, and the clamping groove 231 and the end of the driving swing arm 12 are separated when the thread lifting lever 22 moves along the axial direction of the thread lifting lever shaft 21 in the reverse direction. The cooperation between the cooperation part 23 and the driving swing arm 12 is achieved by clamping and cooperating, which can ensure the rigid connection of the power transmission between the driving swing arm 12 and the thread lifting lever 22, so that the thread lifting lever 22 can stably and reliably reciprocate to lift the embroidery thread.

[0063] The end of the driving swing arm 12 is provided with a roller 121, so that the groove wall of the clamping groove 231 and the rolling surface of the roller 121 are in close contact when the clamping groove 231 and the end of the driving swing arm 12 are clamped and cooperated. The roller 121 can be specifically set as a bearing. The rolling contact between the roller 121 and the wall of the clamping groove 231 replaces the traditional sliding friction, which can greatly reduce the friction generated between the two, effectively prolong the service life, and also reduce the operating noise caused by friction.

[0064] In one embodiment, with reference to Figure 11 and in combination with Figure 1 The machine head 1 is provided with a plurality of machine heads and is arranged in a transverse direction. The machine head 1 is divided into odd and even according to the arrangement order. The driving mechanism is provided with two driving mechanisms. The push-pull rod 42 of one of the driving mechanisms is in driving connection with the transmission swing lever 32 on the odd machine head 1, and the push-pull rod 42 of the other driving mechanism is in driving connection with the transmission swing lever 32 on the even machine head 1. This embodiment is suitable for the case where the number of machine heads 1 is large. The load is shared by the two push-pull rods 42.

[0065] In another embodiment, with reference to Figure 12 and in combination with Figure 1 The machine head 1 is provided with a plurality of machine heads and is arranged in a transverse direction. The driving mechanism is provided with one driving mechanism, and the push-pull rod 42 of the driving mechanism is in driving connection with the transmission swing lever 32 on all machine heads 1. This embodiment is suitable for the case where the number of machine heads 1 is small. Only one push-pull rod 42 is needed.

[0066] Case 2:

[0067] An embroidery machine for disc band embroidery, with reference to Figure 13 , comprising a thread tension lever clutch device, as shown in embodiment 1.

[0068] In this embodiment, the machine head 1 is provided with a plurality of and fixed on the beam 5.

[0069] In this embodiment, the bottom of the machine head 1 is provided with a tray 13, which provides a disc band to cooperate with the needle bar on the machine head 1 for disc band embroidery.
