Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of positioning devices for sewing fabrics in sewing machines, and belongs to an auxiliary mechanism for sewing work. Background Technology
[0002] In industrialized sewing processes, the fixing and positioning of fabric are crucial to the sewing effect. In traditional hand sewing, the skilled operation of industrial workers can ensure the sewing effect, such as ensuring the accuracy of the sewing path and the uniformity of the stitch spacing. Another approach is to use temporary machine sewing aids, such as a fabric clamp specifically designed for temporary fabric fixing, to assist in the positioning of the fabric. For example, Chinese patent document CN203692641U discloses a sewing auxiliary clamp and device. This sewing auxiliary clamp includes a fixed plate connected to a sewing machine, a pair of lifting mechanisms connected to the fixed plate, an adjusting mechanism corresponding to each lifting mechanism, and a positioning mechanism corresponding to each adjusting mechanism. Each positioning mechanism has a friction step block that can move horizontally, and multiple pressure blocks detachably connected to the friction step block. This allows for excellent positioning of sewn fabric pieces or garments, improving product yield. Therefore, machine sewing auxiliary tools can indeed improve industrial efficiency and industrial standards. However, in the actual industrial production, each factory's products and equipment are not the same. This technology is a special auxiliary tooling designed for the actual production use of this unit. Utility Model Content

[0023] This embodiment will be described in conjunction with the appendix to the instruction manual. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 9 This paper details a positioning device for sewing fabrics in a sewing machine. This device assists in positioning and temporarily securing the fabric to be sewn, such as cloth 600 or non-woven fabric, keeping the cloth 600 in an open, flat state. It also allows for movement in two-dimensional space (horizontal and vertical) to coordinate with the sewing action of the sewing machine head 300, ensuring that seams and seams are in the correct positions, guaranteeing the accuracy of the finished product's dimensions and shape. The device has excellent fixing performance, preventing relative slippage between layers of cloth 600 during sewing, thus avoiding wrinkles and skewing.
[0024] The device includes a mounting platform 100, a two-dimensional spatial cross slide assembly 200 and a sewing machine head 300 mounted on the mounting platform 100, and a fabric clamping plate assembly 500 mounted on the two-dimensional spatial cross slide assembly 200. The two-dimensional spatial cross slide assembly 200 is located directly below the sewing machine head 300 and has precise movement capabilities in both the horizontal and vertical directions. It uses a servo motor in conjunction with a synchronous belt motion mechanism and a linear sliding mechanism for precise position control, achieving precise feed within two-dimensional space. The sewing machine head 300 is used for sewing actions and has a sewing needle. This sewing machine head 300 is an industrial sewing module; its specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail.
[0025] Define the horizontal and vertical directions, refer to Figure 1 The length direction along the sewing machine head 300 is defined as longitudinal. Figure 1 Using the Y-axis, the direction perpendicular to the sewing machine head 300 is defined as the horizontal direction. Figure 1 The X-axis is used for representation.
[0026] A mounting slot 110 for mounting linear guide rails is provided on each of the left and right sides of the aforementioned mounting platform 100.
[0027] The two-dimensional spatial cross slide assembly 200, in the longitudinal direction, includes a first linear guide rail 210, a first slider 220, a first synchronous belt mechanism 230, and a first servo motor 240. There are two first linear guide rails 210, arranged one on the left and one on the right, with their length direction along the longitudinal direction. They are installed in the mounting slot 110 of the mounting platform 100, and the first sliders 220 are mounted on the first linear guide rails 210. A crossbeam 400 is overlapped and fixedly mounted on the two first sliders 220. Two synchronous pulleys in the first synchronous belt mechanism 230 are installed inside the mounting platform 100, and one of the synchronous pulleys is mechanically connected to and driven by the first servo motor 240. A first clamp 231 is fixedly mounted on the synchronous belt, and the first clamp 231 is also fixedly connected to the crossbeam 400. Driven by the first servo motor 240, the crossbeam 400 is fed longitudinally, realizing the change of coordinates in the longitudinal direction.
[0028] In the horizontal direction, the two-dimensional spatial cross slide assembly 200 includes a crossbeam 400, a second linear guide rail 250, a second slider 260, a second synchronous belt mechanism 270, and a second servo motor 280. The crossbeam 400 is a hollow shell structure with a C-shaped cross-section. A synchronous belt, synchronous pulley, and reversing pulley are installed inside the crossbeam 400. A protruding motor mounting housing 410 is installed in the middle section of the crossbeam 400, and a second servo motor 280 is installed inside the motor mounting housing 410. The second servo motor 280 is mechanically connected to one of the synchronous pulleys and drives the synchronous belt to rotate, thus driving it. The crossbeam 400 has a sliding groove, and the second linear guide rail 250 is installed on the outside of the sliding groove. The second linear guide rail 250 is fixed to the side of the crossbeam 400, fixedly connected, and arranged along the length of the crossbeam 400. The second slider 260 is slidably mounted on the second linear guide 250, and is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt inside the crossbeam 400 using a second clamp 271. The synchronous belt drives the second slider 260 to slide. There are two second sliders 260, and a cover plate 420 is fixedly installed between them, providing installation space for the fabric clamp assembly 500. The cover plate 420 is snapped and fixed to the outside of the second sliders 260. An L-shaped angle iron 430 is fixedly installed on the cover plate 420, with its vertical part fixedly connected to the cover plate 420. A bottom liner 510 and three hinged hinges 520 are fixedly connected to the horizontal part of the angle iron 430. The bottom liner 510 is fixedly connected to the horizontal part of the angle iron 430 by welding or riveting. It also includes a clamping plate 530, which is hinged to the horizontal part of the angle iron 430 via a hinged hinge 520, and forms a clamping effect on the fabric 600 on the bottom liner 510 during the opening and closing of the clamping plate 530.
[0029] In this embodiment, the bottom liner 510 and the clamping plate 530 are thin plates made of stainless steel. The two clamp each other to form a clamping space for the fabric 600, and together they form the fabric clamping plate assembly 500.
[0030] Further, preferably, the base plate 510 and the clamping plate 530 have rectangular windows 540, and strong magnetic blocks 550 are provided on the edges of the base plate 510 and the clamping plate 530 of the rectangular window 540. The strong magnetic blocks 550 are embedded in the base plate 510 and the clamping plate 530, and the magnetic poles of the strong magnetic blocks 550 in the base plate 510 and the clamping plate 530 are arranged oppositely and attract each other. That is, the clamping plate 530 is fastened to the base plate 510 through the hinged joint 520 to achieve the clamping of the fabric 600. After clamping, the fabric 600 is clamped between the two plates to prevent the fabric 600 from sliding relative to each other during the sewing process and to avoid wrinkles and skewing.
[0031] During the sewing process, the rectangular window 540 feeds horizontally and vertically at the sewing needle position in the sewing machine head 300, realizing two-dimensional space movement in the plane, thereby realizing the sewing of the fabric 600 in the clamping and positioning state. With the help of programming, it can realize the splicing and sewing of complex patterns.
[0032] Furthermore, an operating handle 531 is provided on the aforementioned clamping plate 530. This handle is U-shaped and is used to raise and lower the clamping plate 530. Specifically, by operating this handle, the angle of the clamping plate 530 can be rotated, allowing the fabric 600 to be picked up, placed, and its position adjusted. This is a commonly used handle.
[0033] Furthermore, the clamping surfaces of the aforementioned clamping plate 530 and bottom liner 510 are provided with embossed concave-convex structures or rubber composite layers to improve the clamping force on the fabric 600.
