Detailed Implementation

[0016] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. Example 1

[0017] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the feed dog adjustment device of this sewing machine includes a drive motor 1, a transmission assembly and an adjustment assembly 2. The drive motor 1 drives the adjustment assembly 2 to swing through the transmission assembly. The adjustment assembly 2 is used to adjust the angle of the differential feed shaft 3 in the forward and reverse swing.

[0018] In the above technical solution: the adjustment assembly 2 includes an adjustment seat 21, an adjustment shaft 22 is fixed to the side of the adjustment seat 21, the adjustment seat 21 is hinged to the machine housing via the adjustment shaft 22, and the drive motor 1 is connected to the adjustment seat 21 via a transmission assembly and drives the adjustment seat 21 to rotate. The adjustment seat 21 is provided with an adjustment groove 27. The adjustment assembly 2 also includes two first swing plates 23, two second swing plates 24, an adjustment connecting rod 25, and a transmission connecting rod 26. One end of each of the two first swing plates 23 is hinged to the ends of the two groove walls of the adjustment groove 27, and the other end of each of the two first swing plates 23 is hinged to the ends of the two second swing plates 24. The other ends of each of the two second swing plates 24 are hinged to the adjustment connecting rod 25, and the adjustment connecting rod 25 is fixedly connected to the differential feeding shaft 3. One end of the transmission connecting rod 26 is hinged to the eccentric wheel 41 fixed to the main shaft 4, and the other end of the transmission connecting rod 26 is coaxially hinged to both the first swing plates 23 and the second swing plates 24.

[0019] When the main shaft 4 rotates one revolution, the eccentric wheel 41 drives the transmission link 26 to swing. The transmission link 26 transmits the swing to the first swing plate 23, the second swing plate 24, and the adjusting link 25, causing the differential feeding shaft 3 to swing and achieve differential feeding. The drive motor 1 is connected to the adjusting seat 21 through the transmission assembly and drives the adjusting seat 21 to rotate. The rotation of the adjusting seat 21 changes the relative connection angle of the first swing plate 23 and the two second swing plates 24, and also changes the angle at which the transmission link 26 drives the first swing plate 23 and the second swing plate 24 to swing. Thus, the adjusting link 25 drives the differential feeding shaft 3 to change its swing amplitude, thereby achieving differential adjustment.

[0020] In the above technical solution: the transmission assembly includes a slider 5 and a slide groove 211 located on the side of the adjusting seat 21. The slider 5 is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor 1, and the adjusting shaft 22 is arranged parallel to the output shaft of the drive motor 1. The slider 5 is slidably disposed within the slide groove 211. The drive motor 1 drives the slider 5 to rotate, and the slider 5 drives the adjusting seat 21 to swing. The slider 5 can slide up and down within the slide groove 211, ensuring smooth transmission between the slider 5 and the adjusting seat 21 and preventing transmission jamming.

[0021] In the above technical solution: a fixing block 6 is fixed inside the housing, and the fixing block 6 is divided into a first fixing part and a second fixing part by a partition plate 61. The drive motor 1 is fixed on the first fixing part, and the end of the adjusting shaft 22 is fixed on the side wall of the second fixing part. Example 2

[0022] This embodiment is largely similar to the previous embodiment in terms of technical solution. The differences will be described in detail, while the contents that are the same in both will not be repeated here.

[0023] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , 4As shown, the transmission assembly includes a meshing worm gear 7 and a worm 8. The worm 8 is hinged inside the machine housing, and the worm 8 is laterally hinged to the side wall of the first fixed part of the fixed block 6. The drive motor 1 is vertically mounted on the first fixed part, and the worm gear 7 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 1. The end of the worm 8 is fixed to the side of the adjusting seat 21, and the adjusting shaft 22 is parallel to the worm 8 and perpendicular to the output shaft of the drive motor 1. The drive motor 1 drives the worm gear 7 to rotate, and the worm gear 7 drives the worm 8 to rotate, causing the adjusting seat 21 to swing. Through the transmission of the worm gear 7 and the worm 8, the drive motor 1 is vertically placed, resulting in a compact structure suitable for sewing machine housings with limited space. This allows for a reasonable arrangement of the installation position of the drive motor 1 according to the size of the space inside the housing. At the same time, the transmission of the worm gear 7 and the worm 8 is smooth, with low vibration and noise.

[0024] The feed dog adjustment device of this sewing machine achieves automatic feed dog adjustment through drive motor 1. The structure is reasonable and simple, and the transmission and adjustment components for adjusting the angle of the differential feed shaft's forward and reverse swing are simplified. The structure has high stability, is not easy to stop or jam, has low manufacturing cost, and is easy to use. The transmission component allows the installation position of drive motor 1 to be reasonably arranged according to the space inside the machine housing. It can choose slider 3 and groove 211 transmission or worm gear 7 and worm 8 transmission. The structure is compact, suitable for sewing machine housings with limited space, has a wide range of applications, and is traditionally stable.
