Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sewing machine technology, and relates to a sewing machine, and particularly to a sewing machine stitch length and presser foot adjustment device. Background Technology
[0002] Sewing machines require pressing foot lifting and stitch length adjustment during operation. Existing designs, such as the one disclosed in Chinese Patent [Authorization Announcement No.: CN111593497A], include a presser foot assembly and a swing seat for adjusting stitch length. The key feature is the inclusion of a stepper motor. This stepper motor drives the presser foot lifting assembly to perform the pressing action and drives the swing seat to perform the rotational swing action. A presser foot lifting cam is connected to the stepper motor, and the presser foot lifting cam includes a stitch length travel surface and a presser foot travel surface. The presser foot lifting assembly includes a presser foot lever, a pressure rod, and a presser foot. The presser foot is connected to the bottom end of the pressure rod. One end of the presser foot lever is connected to the pressure rod via a linkage mechanism, and the other end of the presser foot lever is adapted to the presser foot stroke surface. The stepper motor includes an output shaft, and the presser foot cam is fixedly connected to the output shaft, with the cam located at the end closest to the stepper motor body. A pin pitch drive handle is fixedly connected to the other end of the output shaft, away from the stepper motor body. The pin pitch drive handle is connected to the swing seat via a pin pitch pull rod. In the technical solution disclosed in this patent, since both the pin pitch drive handle and the presser foot cam are fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the stepper motor, when the presser foot cam rotates and drives the presser foot lever, circumferential vibration is generated. This causes the pin pitch drive handle to rotate, resulting in vibration of the pin pitch adjustment components such as the swing seat, affecting the working stability. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a sewing machine stitch length and presser foot adjustment device.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: a stitch length and presser foot adjustment device for a sewing machine, comprising a drive motor, a presser foot cam, a presser foot lever, and a swing seat. The presser foot cam is connected to the motor shaft of the drive motor and is used to drive the presser foot lever to work. The characteristic is that a stitch length cam is also connected to the motor shaft. The stitch length cam drives the swing seat to swing through a stitch length crank and a stitch length adjustment linkage. One end of the stitch length adjustment linkage is hinged to the stitch length crank, and the other end is hinged to the swing seat.
[0005] In the above-mentioned stitch length and presser foot adjustment device for the sewing machine, the middle part of the stitch length crank is hinged to the sewing machine housing by a screw at the end of the feed adjuster shaft. One end of the stitch length crank is rotatably connected to a stitch length roller, the wheel surface of the stitch length roller abuts against the wheel surface of the stitch length cam, and the other end of the stitch length crank is hinged to one end of the stitch length adjustment linkage.
[0006] In the above-mentioned sewing machine's stitch length and presser foot adjustment device, a bolt assembly for connecting a reverse stitch feed spring is inserted through the stitch length adjustment linkage. One end of the reverse stitch feed spring is connected to the bolt assembly, and the other end is connected to a fixing plate. The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the sewing machine's housing.
[0007] In the above-mentioned sewing machine's stitch length and presser foot adjustment device, the stitch length cam includes a circular plate-shaped stitch length cam body and a stitch length cam drive block located on the outer circumferential surface of the stitch length cam body and protruding outward in a comma shape. The stitch length cam drive block includes a concave drive surface one and a convex drive surface two.
[0008] In the above-mentioned sewing machine's stitch length and presser foot adjustment device, the presser foot cam and the stitch length cam are sequentially connected to the motor shaft, and the stitch length cam is connected to the free end of the motor shaft. The presser foot cam includes a circular presser foot cam body and a presser foot cam drive block located on the outer circumferential surface of the stitch length cam body and protruding outward. The presser foot cam drive block has a driving surface with varying heights on one side wall facing the stitch length cam.
[0009] In the above-mentioned sewing machine's stitch length and presser foot adjustment device, the middle part of the presser foot lever is hinged to the sewing machine housing by a presser foot lever shaft screw. One end of the presser foot lever is connected to the presser foot assembly through a presser foot pull rod, and the other end is connected to a presser foot roller. The presser foot roller is abutted against the drive surface three of the presser foot cam drive block.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, in this utility model, when the presser foot lifting assembly moves up and down with the presser foot lifting cam, the needle pitch crank will only rotate intermittently with the rotation of the needle pitch cam, thereby driving the swing seat to swing. It will not rotate due to the circumferential vibration of the presser foot lifting cam during operation, thus ensuring that the swing seat will not swing unnecessarily, ensuring the stability of the operation, and also reducing vibration and noise.
