[0002] In the garment manufacturing industry, buttons are essential for common garments such as jeans, denim jackets, and dress pants. In the traditional garment manufacturing process, the button-making process relies on manual labor, requiring the buttons to be manually threaded through the fabric and then hammered in with a nail to complete the rivet connection. This work method is inefficient and labor-intensive.
[0003] Existing button-attaching devices for garment production have significant flaws in the button conveying stage. The button pushing component cannot accurately control the button's positioning within the stamping groove, making it difficult for the button to remain stably centered. This not only causes uneven force distribution on the button during stamping, leading to weak rivets and reduced garment quality, but in extreme cases, unevenly stressed buttons may even eject, posing a safety hazard to operators. To ensure processing accuracy, operators must frequently manually calibrate the button position, increasing manpower and diminishing the automation advantages of the equipment. Furthermore, current button-attaching devices lack emergency safety devices, posing a safety hazard of workers being injured by the hammer during manual operation. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a button-attaching device for garment production.

[0026] Example 1
[0027] This invention provides a button-sewing device for garment production, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1-5As shown, the device includes a work box 21, the upper surface of which is a worktable 18. A stop block frame 1 and a button storage bin 4 are provided on the worktable 18. A stamping stop block 3 is provided below the stop block frame 1. A stamping hole 19 is located on the worktable directly below the stamping stop block 3. The stamping hole 19 is connected to the stamping pipe 10 below the worktable. The stamping pipe 10, together with the stamping head 12, stamping rod 9, and cylinder 8 below it, form a stamping mechanism. A guide slide 16 is connected to the stamping mechanism. A push block 13 is arranged on the guide slide 16, and an electric push block 14 connected to the push block forms a button conveying mechanism. A servo motor 15 drives the electric push block 14 to provide power for the movement of the push block 13.
[0028] The stamping stop 3 works in conjunction with the stamping head 12 when it impacts upward. An annular buffer rubber pad 17 is installed on the lower surface of the stamping stop 3. The part with the opening in the middle of the buffer rubber pad 17 exposes the metal part of the stamping stop 3. During operation, the metal part on the lower surface of the stamping stop 3 collides with the button 11 and attaches the button 11 to the clothing. The buffer rubber pad 17 effectively reduces the damage that the impact may cause to the fabric.
[0029] Three capacitive sensors 2 are installed on the stamping stop 3. These capacitive sensors 2 can identify and detect human skin and fabric. When the stamping action is about to be performed, if the operator's hand is located in the circular detection area formed by the capacitive sensors 2, that is, the operator's hand is located between the stamping stop 3 and the stamping head 12, the capacitive sensors 2 will send a signal to the controller 7. The controller 7 will then control the device to terminate the stamping, thereby eliminating the safety hazards during the stamping process.
[0030] The stamping head 12 in the stamping mechanism is connected to the cylinder 8 via the stamping rod 9 below it. The cylinder 8 provides power for the upward movement of the stamping head 12. The stamping head 12 and the stamping rod 9 are connected by a threaded connection for easy disassembly and replacement. A groove structure is provided in the middle of the stamping head 12. During the upward stamping process, the button 11 is placed in the groove when the stamping head 12 impacts upward, ensuring the accurate positioning of the button 11.
[0031] The depth of the groove on the stamping head 12 is equal to the height of the button cap of the button 11, and the button foot of the button 11 is completely exposed, ensuring that the button 11 is installed on the garment after impact. When not stamping, the stamping head 12 is located inside the stamping tube 10, and its top height is lower than the button inlet hole 20 on the side of the stamping tube 10. The button 11 will be pushed by the pusher through the button inlet hole 20 onto the stamping head 12, thus being placed in the groove in the center of the stamping head 12. During use, a suitable stamping head 12 must be selected according to the size specifications of the button 11, and it must be disassembled and replaced to avoid positional displacement of the button 11 during the stamping process.
[0032] The guide slide 16, push block 13, electric push block 14, and servo motor 15 constitute the button conveying mechanism. One end of the guide slide 16 is connected to the button inlet hole 20 on the stamping tube, and the other end is located directly below the button outlet of the button storage tank 4. When a button 11 in the button storage tank 4 falls onto the guide slide 16, the push block 13 on the guide slide 16 pushes the button 11 forward along the guide slide 16, allowing the button 11 to pass through the button inlet hole 20 and push the button 11 into the stamping head 12 located in the stamping tube 10.
[0033] The push block 13 has an overall arc shape, and the arc formed by the structure of the push block 13 is consistent with the arc presented by the push block 13 during actual movement. The shape of the guide slide 16 matches the arc of the push block 13 during movement. The side of the push block 13 is connected to the electric push block 14, and the other end of the electric push block 14 is connected to the servo motor 15. The servo motor 15 acts as a power source to drive the electric push block 14, causing the push block 13 to swing back and forth along the guide slide 16.
[0034] The pusher block 13 has a certain length. As it moves forward and pushes the button 11 from below the button storage tank 4 into the stamping tube 10, it closes the button 11 outlet below the button storage tank 4, preventing the buttons 11 inside from falling into the guide slide 16. When the pusher block 13 resets, the button 11 outlet reopens, and the button 11 slides from the button storage tank 4 into the guide slide 16. The distance between the button storage tank 4 and the guide slide 16 can only accommodate a single button 11; therefore, once the first button 11 falls into the guide slide 16, the second button 11 will not fall.
[0035] The storage bucket 4 is fixed on the workbench 18, with the upper half of the storage bucket 4 above the workbench 18, making it easy to add buttons 11.
[0036] The side of the work box 21 is equipped with a stamping button 5, an emergency stop button 6, and a controller 7. The stamping button 5 is used for manual control of stamping. In case of malfunction, the emergency stop button 6 can shut down the device immediately. The controller 7 is used to debug the device, adjust the stamping pressure, control the device to switch between automatic and active stamping, modify the stamping frequency parameters during automatic stamping, and shut down the device in case of malfunction.
[0037] The button-attaching device for garment production described in this embodiment operates as follows:
[0038] The button 11 in the storage bin 4 falls onto the guide slide 16. The servo motor 15 drives the electric push block 14, which in turn drives the push block 13 to slide forward. The push block 13 pushes the button 11 through the button hole 20 into the stamping tube 10. The button 11 is placed in the groove on the stamping head 12, and because the center of gravity is located at the button cap, the button cap of the button 11 contacts the groove. Then the push block 13 retracts to the initial position, and another button 11 in the storage bin 4 falls onto the guide slide 16. Driven by the cylinder 8, the stamping head 12 carries the button 11 upward along the stamping tube 10 until the upper surface of the stamping head 12 is flush with the worktable 18. At this time, the button foot of the button 11 is higher than the surface of the worktable 18.
[0039] In manual mode, the worker places the garment for which buttons 11 need to be installed onto the stamping head 12, ensuring the button pin of button 11 passes through the buttonhole. The worker then presses the stamping button 5, causing the stamping head 12 to impact upwards against the stamping stop 3, thus installing the button 11 onto the garment. After the impact is complete, the stamping head 12 returns downwards to the buttonhole 20 position of the stamping tube 10, and the pusher block 13 pushes down one button 11 into the groove on the stamping head 12. This process is repeated continuously.
[0040] In automatic mode, the worker places the garment to be buttoned onto the punch head 12, allowing the button pin of the button 11 to pass through the buttonhole. After a certain period, the punch head 12 automatically impacts the punching stop 3, and the button 11 is installed on the garment. The punch head 12 then returns downwards to the buttonhole 20 position of the punch tube 10, and the pusher block 13 pushes the next button 11 onto the punch head 12, thus repeating the cycle. During automatic impact, if the worker's hand is placed between the punching stop 3 and the punch head 12, the punch head 12 will not impact upwards.
[0041] Therefore, this utility model adopts the above-mentioned button-attaching device for garment production, with a button conveying mechanism arranged below the workbench to realize automatic button conveying; the groove and stamping tube on the stamping head accurately position the buttons; the capacitive sensor on the stamping baffle avoids safety hazards during operation; the electric buffer rubber pad on the stamping baffle reduces damage to the garment itself during the stamping process; and the controller enables the efficient and safe operation of this button-attaching device for garment production through orderly control of the entire device.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the technical solution of this utility model, and these modifications or equivalent substitutions cannot cause the modified technical solution to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
