Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical protection technology, specifically relating to a protective mechanism for an embroidery machine. Background Technology

[0002] An embroidery machine is an automated textile machinery device mainly used to embroider various patterns, texts, and designs on fabrics. The embroidery machine converts the designed pattern in the computer into digital signals, controls the embroidery frame to move precisely in the X and Y axes, and drives the needle bar to move up and down, so that the embroidery needle carries the embroidery thread through the fabric. Combined with the rotary hook mechanism, the top thread and bottom thread are interwoven, thus embroidering the predetermined pattern on the fabric.

[0003] Currently, when embroidery machines on the market are performing embroidery tasks, the embroidery needles reciprocate at extremely high speeds. During continuous operation, due to the high-speed movement of the embroidery needles, the needles and other parts are exposed to the air, and operators may be at risk of being pricked by the needles. Furthermore, the transmission components of the embroidery machine, such as belts and gears, may accidentally get caught in the operator's clothing, hair, or fingers during operation. This can not only interrupt the production process but may also cause serious bodily injury to the operator. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a protective mechanism for an embroidery machine that can fully cover the high-speed moving parts and transmission parts of the embroidery machine, thereby effectively isolating the operator from contact with these potentially dangerous parts.

[0005] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] An embroidery machine protective mechanism includes a leg frame, an embroidery component fixedly connected to the top of the leg frame, an embroidery frame fixedly connected to the top of one side of the embroidery component, a machine head installed on one side of the embroidery component and at the top of the embroidery frame, and a protective component provided on the embroidery component.

[0007] Preferably, the protective component includes strip grooves fixedly formed on both sides of the bottom of the embroidery component. A bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected in one of the strip grooves, and a slide rod is fixedly connected in the other strip groove. A motor is fixedly installed on one side of the embroidery component, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw. Two sets of sliders are slidably connected to both sides of the surface of the bidirectional lead screw and the slide rod. A support plate is fixedly connected to the side of each set of sliders that is close to each other. A protective cover is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the support plate. A control panel is fixedly installed on one of the protective covers, and a cleaning component is provided on the inner side of the protective cover.

[0008] Preferably, the cleaning assembly includes a viewing window on one side of the two protective covers, a transparent plate is fixedly installed on the viewing window, and two strip rods are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective covers. Cleaning rollers are rotatably connected to the side of the two strip rods that are close to each other.

[0009] Preferably, the two cleaning rollers have different lengths, and the surfaces of both cleaning rollers are attached to the transparent plate.

[0010] Preferably, each of the two protective covers has two circular holes on its opposite side, a fan is rotatably connected to each circular hole, and a protective net is fixedly installed inside each circular hole.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the embroidery frame has a groove, and a magnetic plate is fixedly installed in the groove.

[0012] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This utility model discloses a protective mechanism for an embroidery machine. By incorporating protective components and driving a motor via a control panel, the mechanism rotates a bidirectional lead screw. Two sets of sliders on the lead screw move a support plate closer together on the lead screw and slide bar, thus enveloping the embroidery frame and machine head with a protective cover. This effectively protects the frame and machine head, isolating dangerous components such as embroidery needles from the operator and reducing the risk of injury. When the machine head is not in operation, the operator can reverse the bidirectional lead screw via the control panel, causing the two sets of sliders to move away from each other on the lead screw and slide bar, opening the protective cover for maintenance and needle replacement. The design of the bar and cleaning rollers ensures that the cleaning rollers clean the transparent panels on the protective covers during the reverse movement of the two protective covers, maintaining their clarity and allowing the operator to clearly observe the working status of the embroidery frame and machine head. This device comprehensively covers the high-speed moving and transmission components of the embroidery machine, effectively isolating the operator from contact with these potentially dangerous parts.

[0020] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a leg frame 1, an embroidery component 2 fixedly connected to the top of the leg frame 1, an embroidery frame 3 fixedly connected to the top of one side of the embroidery component 2, an embroidery head 4 installed on one side of the embroidery component 2 and on top of the embroidery frame 3, and a protective component provided on the embroidery component 2.

[0022] The device is composed of several components: leg 1 supports the entire device, embroidery assembly 2 supports embroidery frame 3 and machine head 4, embroidery frame 3 supports the embroidery fabric at the bottom of machine head 4 to prevent the fabric from moving or shifting during embroidery, thus ensuring the accuracy and stability of the embroidery and improving the fineness of the embroidery process; machine head 4 is an embroidery device that can perform precise embroidery operations on fixed fabric. The entire device is ingeniously designed, with each component working together to make the embroidery process more efficient and accurate. The protective assembly effectively protects embroidery frame 3 and machine head 4, isolating dangerous parts such as embroidery needles from the operator and reducing the risk of injury. During the operation of machine head 4, there may be situations such as broken embroidery needles, broken embroidery threads, and flying fabric fragments. The protective assembly can block these flying objects.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the protective component includes strip grooves 5 fixedly opened on both sides of the bottom of the embroidery component 2. A bidirectional lead screw 6 is rotatably connected in one strip groove 5, and a slide rod 7 is fixedly connected in the other strip groove 5. A motor 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the embroidery component 2, and the output end of the motor 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 6. Two sets of sliders 9 are slidably connected to both sides of the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 6 and the slide rod 7. A support plate 10 is fixedly connected to the side of each set of sliders 9 that is close to each other. A protective cover 11 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the support plate 10. A control panel is fixedly installed on one of the protective covers 11, and a cleaning component is provided on the inside of the protective cover 11.

[0024] Specifically, the control panel is used to control the operation of the entire device. The control panel drives the motor 8, which in turn drives the bidirectional lead screw 6 to rotate. This causes the two sets of sliders 9 on the bidirectional lead screw 6 to move the support plate 10 closer to each other on the bidirectional lead screw 6 and the slide bar 7, thereby causing the protective cover 11 to surround the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4, thus protecting them. When the machine head 4 is not working, the operator can operate the control panel to reverse the bidirectional lead screw 6, causing the two sets of sliders 9 to move away from each other on the bidirectional lead screw 6 and the slide bar 7, thereby opening the protective cover 11. This allows the operator to perform maintenance on the machine head 4 and replace embroidery needles. The cleaning component is used to clean and maintain the transparent plate 13 to ensure the visibility of the embroidery machine, making it easy for the staff to observe the working status of the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the cleaning assembly includes a viewing window 12 on one side of two protective covers 11, a transparent plate 13 fixedly installed on the viewing window 12, and two strip rods 14 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective cover 11. A cleaning roller 15 is rotatably connected to the side of the two strip rods 14 that are close to each other.

[0026] The design of the viewing window 12 and the transparent plate 13 allows for observation of the working environment and status of the embroidery frame 3 and machine head 4 within the inner cavity of the protective cover 11 after the protective covers 11 on both sides have covered them. The transparent plate 13 is designed to be easy to clean, preventing dust or debris from embroidery from obstructing the view and affecting the observation effect. The design of the bar 14 and the cleaning roller 15 allows the cleaning roller 15 on each of the two protective covers 11 to clean the transparent plate 13 when the two protective covers 11 move in opposite directions, thus ensuring the clarity of the transparent plate 13 and allowing the staff to clearly observe the working status of the embroidery frame 3 and machine head 4 at all times. The surface of the cleaning roller 15 may be covered with a soft cleaning material to avoid damaging the transparent plate 13 during the cleaning process.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the lengths of the two cleaning rollers 15 are not equal, and the surfaces of both cleaning rollers 15 are attached to the transparent plate 13.

[0028] Specifically, this design difference in length values ​​allows the two cleaning rollers 15 to clean the surface of the transparent plate 13 separately when the two protective covers 11 move in opposite directions, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the entire surface of the transparent plate 13, improving cleaning efficiency, and ensuring comprehensive cleaning. The surfaces of the two cleaning rollers 15 are both in close contact with the transparent plate 13. This tight fit design ensures that no dead corners are left during the cleaning process, and also avoids the accumulation of dust or debris on the surface of the transparent plate 13, further improving the clarity of observation.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, two circular holes 16 are opened on the side of the two protective covers 11 that are far apart from each other. A fan 17 is rotatably connected in the circular holes 16, and a protective net is fixedly installed in the circular holes 16.

[0030] The design of the round hole 16 and the fan 17 allows the protective cover 11 to protect the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4 while the fan 17 can dissipate heat inside the protective cover 11, thereby effectively reducing the temperature inside the protective cover 11 and ensuring the normal operation of the embroidery machine. The design of the protective net can effectively prevent external debris or dust from entering the protective cover 11 and damaging the precision parts of the machine head 4.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the top of the embroidery frame 3 has a groove 18, and a magnetic plate is fixedly installed in the groove 18.

[0032] Specifically, the design of the groove 18 and the magnetic plate is designed to prevent needle breakage during the operation of the machine head 4. When a needle breaks, it is attracted by the magnetic plate, preventing it from falling into the machine and damaging other parts of the machine head 4, thus improving the safety of the machine head 4 and ensuring its stable operation. At the same time, the design of the groove 18 and the magnetic plate makes replacing the magnetic plate simple and quick. When too many broken needles are attracted to the magnetic plate, the user can easily remove the magnetic plate for cleaning, improving the maintenance efficiency of the embroidery machine.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the control panel drives the motor 8, which in turn drives the bidirectional lead screw 6 to rotate. This causes the two sets of sliders 9 on the bidirectional lead screw 6 to move the support plate 10 closer together on the bidirectional lead screw 6 and the slide bar 7, thereby causing the protective cover 11 to surround the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4, thus protecting them. When the machine head 4 is not working, the operator can operate the control panel to reverse the bidirectional lead screw 6, causing the two sets of sliders 9 to move away from each other on the bidirectional lead screw 6 and the slide bar 7, thereby opening the protective cover 11 and facilitating maintenance of the machine head 4 by the operator. Operations such as changing embroidery needles; the design of the viewing window 12 and the transparent plate 13 allows the protective covers 11 on both sides to cover the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4, and the transparent plate 13 to observe the working environment and working status of the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4 inside the protective cover 11. Finally, the design of the bar rod 14 and the cleaning roller 15 allows the cleaning roller 15 on each of the two protective covers 11 to clean the transparent plate 13 on the protective cover 11 when the two protective covers 11 move in opposite directions, so that the staff can clearly observe the working status of the embroidery frame 3 and the machine head 4 at all times, thus completing the comprehensive protection of the machine head 4.

[0034] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
