Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sewing machine auxiliary devices, specifically an elastic waistband auxiliary sewing device. Background Technology

[0002] The waistband, as the upper opening of trousers, is a key structural component connecting the trousers to the waist. Its core function is to adaptively adjust to fit the waist curve through built-in elastic materials (such as elastic bands). A typical waistband consists of two layers of fabric wrapped around an elastic band. These three layers (outer fabric, elastic band, and inner fabric) must be sewn together simultaneously using an overlock stitching process to form a uniformly elastic ring-shaped drawstring structure. This special construction places dual technical requirements on the sewing process: ensuring that the elastic band remains evenly stretched throughout the sewing process, and ensuring that the inner and outer fabrics are smoothly covered without wrinkles.

[0003] As the core equipment for this process, the overlock sewing machine's unique multi-thread chain stitch effectively locks the fabric edges, preventing the elastic band from slipping off. In traditional operations, operators manually place the elastic band within the fabric layer of the waistband and simultaneously stretch the elastic band and fabric with both hands, feeding it into the overlock sewing machine under tension. This operating mode presents the following technical bottlenecks in actual production:

[0004] The uniformity of force applied manually is difficult to guarantee. The operator must manually maintain the tension of the elastic band throughout the sewing process. The worker needs to stretch the elastic band to a certain length before sewing it to the binding fabric, applying even force while ensuring straight stitching. This requires considerable practical experience. Furthermore, the continuous application of force by human muscles is susceptible to fatigue, leading to significant differences in tension across different sections of the elastic band. Especially when handling highly elastic materials, uneven force can directly cause localized looseness or excessive tightness in the waistband of the sewn trousers, severely impacting wearing comfort and product consistency.

[0005] The aforementioned technical defects have led to problems such as unstable quality and high rework rate in the traditional waistband sewing process, which has restricted the standardization of trouser production. Utility Model Content

[0006] This invention provides an auxiliary sewing device for elastic waistbands. By selecting different roller groups to match the appropriate waistband size, and utilizing adjustable connecting rods, the distance and height of the rollers can be precisely adjusted. Combined with high-pressure pneumatic waste collection, the working surface is kept clean. This device effectively solves the problem of uneven tension in manual sewing, significantly improving the quality and efficiency of waistband sewing.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: an elastic waistband auxiliary sewing device, comprising a base, a table, and an overlock sewing machine head. The table is positioned above the base, and the overlock sewing machine head is mounted above the table.

[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an elastic waistband auxiliary sewing device includes a base 1, a table 2, and an overlock sewing machine head 3.

[0025] The tabletop 2 is positioned above the base 1, and a notch 5 is provided on the tabletop 2. The notch 5 is U-shaped, and the overlock sewing machine head 3 is installed on the right rear side of the notch 5 above the tabletop 2.

[0026] The overlock sewing machine head 3 used in this embodiment is a commercially available Pegasus brand model EX5114-03. The overlock sewing machine head 3 includes a needle mechanism, a looper mechanism, and a stitch forming device. The needle uses a vertical reciprocating motion to pierce the fabric, while the looper is positioned behind the needle and swings horizontally. Together, they form a chain stitch. During stitch formation, the thread on the needle penetrates the fabric and interweaves with the bobbin thread carried by the looper. The stitch tension is adjusted by the take-up lever, ultimately forming a multi-thread chain structure covering the fabric edge. The cutter 25 assembly is located to the side of the needle and is used to simultaneously cut the raw edges of the fabric. Its structure and working principle are known in the prior art and are not protected by this patent, so they will not be described further. An overlock sewing machine table 4 is provided on one side of the overlock sewing machine head 3. The overlock sewing machine needle 24 is positioned above the overlock sewing machine table 4, and a cutter 25 is provided on one side of the overlock sewing machine needle 24.

[0027] A first support 6 is provided in front of the sewing table 4 of the overlock sewing machine, and a guide rail 7 is provided above the first support 6. The guide rail 7 has a "︺" shaped cross-section, and the guide rail 7 is connected to the top of the first support 6 through an elongated hole and bolts. The waistband is located in the groove of the guide rail 7 during operation, and the position of the guide rail 7 is adjusted according to the width of the waistband.

[0028] A first roller 9 and a fourth roller 14 are respectively arranged behind and in front of the guide rail 7. A second roller 10 and a third roller 12 are arranged side by side at the bottom of the overlock sewing machine table 4. A fifth roller 18 is arranged below the third roller 12 and the fourth roller 14. The first roller 9, the second roller 10, the third roller 12, the fourth roller 14 and the fifth roller 18 are all arranged in the notch 5 of the table surface 2.

[0029] Specifically, the first roller 9 and the second roller 10 are mounted on the second support 8, which is installed on the right rear side of the notch 5 in the table surface 2. The third roller 12 is mounted on the third support 11, which is installed on the right middle side of the notch 5 in the table surface 2. One end of the third support 11 is pivotally connected to one end of the first connecting rod 13, and the fourth roller 14 is mounted on the other end of the first connecting rod 13. By adjusting the first connecting rod 13, the distance between the first roller 9 and the fourth roller 14 can be adjusted, thereby allowing for fine-tuning of the dimensions. One end of the third support 11 is pivotally connected to one end of the first connecting rod 13 through an elongated hole. The fifth roller 18 is mounted on one end of the third connecting rod 17, which is pivotally connected to one end of the second connecting rod 16. The other end of the second connecting rod 16 is pivotally connected to the fourth support 15, which is constructed of an L-shaped bent steel plate and bolted to the right front side of the notch 5 in the table surface 2. The fourth support 15 is provided with an elongated hole. The other end of the second connecting rod 16 is pivotally connected to the elongated hole of the fourth support 15 with a nut. The third connecting rod 17 is provided with an elongated hole, and one end of the second connecting rod 16 is pivotally connected to the elongated hole of the third connecting rod 17. By adjusting the posture and position of the third connecting rod 17 and the second connecting rod 16, the height and horizontal position of the fifth roller 18 can be adjusted, thereby accommodating the sewing of waistbands of various sizes.

[0030] With the above technical solution, when sewing waistbands using this device, the appropriate rollers are selected according to the size of the waistband. For smaller sizes, the first roller 9 and the fourth roller 14 are used; for medium sizes, the first roller 9, the second roller 10, the third roller 12, and the fourth roller 14 are used; and for larger sizes, the first roller 9, the fourth roller 14, and the fifth roller 18 are used. A negative pressure is created in the waste conveying pipe 20 by a high-pressure air source, thereby conveying the waste falling into the waste collection cylinder 19 to the designated position.

[0031] Adjustment rings 23 are provided on the first roller 9 and the fourth roller 14. By adjusting the position of the adjustment rings 23 on the first roller 9 and the fourth roller 14, the running trajectory of the waistband is made consistent with the guide rail 7.

[0032] A further aspect of this invention is that a waste collection cylinder 19 is provided on the lower side of the cutter 25. The waste collection cylinder 19 is conical and connected to a waste conveying pipe 20. The middle section of the waste conveying pipe 20 is connected to a high-pressure pipe 21, which is connected to a high-pressure air source. The middle section of the high-pressure pipe 21 forms a Venturi effect negative pressure chamber. The high-pressure air source is controlled by a foot switch 22. When the foot switch 22 is pressed, the high-pressure airflow generates negative pressure in the waste conveying pipe 20, drawing the cloth scraps cut by the cutter 25 into the waste collection cylinder 19 and transporting them to the trash can.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, during operation, the operator selects the roller combination according to the waistband size: for small sizes, the first roller 99 and the fourth roller 14 form the basic tension; for medium sizes, the second roller 10 and the third roller 12 are added to form a composite tension zone; for large sizes, the fifth roller 18 is used to expand the working surface. The distance between the fourth roller 14 and the first roller 9 is adjusted by moving the first connecting rod 13, and the spatial coordinates of the fifth roller 18 are adjusted by rotating the second connecting rod 16 and the third connecting rod 17. The waste material generated during sewing is sucked into the waste conveying pipe 20 through the waste collection cylinder 19 under negative pressure for centralized processing.

[0034] This implementation method, through the combination of modular roller layout and multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment mechanism, achieves integrated operation of elastic band tension control, fabric flatness maintenance and automated waste cleaning, effectively improving the stability of waistband sewing process.

[0035] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
