Description
Technical fields:
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sewing equipment technology, specifically referring to an automatic thread cutting, presser foot lifting, and tooth lowering device and sewing machine. Background technology:
[0002] In the garment manufacturing industry, sewing machines are core production equipment, and their performance directly affects the efficiency and quality of garment production. In recent years, with the rapid changes in market demand, the garment industry has shown a trend of "small-batch, fast-response," which has led to garment factories frequently needing to change fabrics of different thicknesses and materials for sewing. Due to the significant differences in the characteristics of different fabrics (such as elasticity, thickness, and surface smoothness), sewing machines often need to adjust the height of the feed dog when changing fabrics to ensure a stable feeding effect and avoid problems such as skipped stitches, thread breakage, fabric wrinkling, or poor feeding.
[0003] Currently, adjusting the feed dog height typically relies on manual operation, requiring maintenance personnel to manually adjust relevant parts of the sewing machine. While maintenance personnel possess the professional skills to accurately perform the adjustments, in actual production, garment factories have a limited number of maintenance personnel compared to the large number of sewing machines on the production line. When frequent adjustments to the feed dog height are needed to accommodate different fabrics, maintenance personnel often cannot respond promptly, leading to prolonged machine downtime and significantly impacting production efficiency. Furthermore, manual adjustment also suffers from cumbersome operation, low efficiency, and susceptibility to human error affecting sewing quality. Utility model content:
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic thread trimming, presser foot lifting, and tooth arching device and sewing machine that is driven by a rotary drive to adjust the height of the teeth.
[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows:

The presser foot lifting crank and the other end of the presser foot lifting lever abut against each other, driving the presser foot shaft to rotate in one direction. The presser foot shaft is connected to the presser foot via a presser foot arm.
[0015] In the above-mentioned automatic wire cutting, presser foot lifting, and tooth lowering device, the wire cutting mechanism includes a first drive lever and a second drive lever rotatably mounted on the housing. The first drive lever is in contact with the outer cam surface of the wire cutting cam. One end of the second drive lever is located below the first drive rod, and the other end is connected to one end of the wire cutting shaft through a first connecting rod and a first crank.

[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. See also: Figure 1 —12:
[0035] Example 1:
[0036] This embodiment provides an automatic wire cutting, presser foot lifting, and tooth lowering device, which includes a rotary drive component 1, a ratchet locking mechanism, and a cam mechanism. The rotary drive component 1 has a rotary output end 2. The rotary drive component 1 is generally a drive motor, and the rotary output end 2 is the motor shaft. The rotary drive component 1 is mounted on the housing 4 via a drive component mounting plate 3.
[0037] The cam mechanism includes a tooth-lowering cam 5, a pressure foot lifting cam 6, and a wire-cutting cam 7, all mounted on the rotary output end 2. The tooth-lowering cam 5 has a tooth-lowering driving section 8 and a tooth-lowering base circle section 9. The tooth-lowering driving section 8 is used to drive the tooth-lowering mechanism to perform tooth-lowering and adjust tooth height. The pressure foot lifting cam 6 has a pressure foot lifting driving section 10 and a pressure foot lifting base circle section 11. The pressure foot lifting driving section 10 is used to drive the pressure foot lifting mechanism to lift the pressure foot, and the height of the pressure foot 12 can be adjusted according to the distance from the pressure foot lifting driving section 10 to the center of the pressure foot lifting cam 6. The wire-cutting cam 7 has a wire-cutting driving section 13 and a wire-cutting base circle section 14. The wire-cutting driving section 13 is used to drive the wire-cutting mechanism to perform wire-cutting.
[0038] The ratchet mechanism includes a ratchet 15 mounted on the rotating output end 2 and not rotating with it, a retaining assembly mounted on the drive mounting plate 2, and a follower mounted on the ratchet 15. The tooth lowering drive section 8, in addition to driving the tooth lowering mechanism, can also drive the ratchet 15 and retaining assembly via the follower to adjust the tooth height. Adjusting the tooth height triggers the tooth lowering and presser foot lifting mechanisms.
[0039] Specifically, the ratchet 15 is mounted on the rotary output end 2 via a sleeve 40, and one end of the sleeve 40 is fixed to the drive component mounting plate 3.
[0040] In this embodiment, the follower is a top pin 16, which is disposed on the side of the ratchet 15 adjacent to the lower tooth arch cam. One end of the top pin 16 is mounted on the ratchet 15, and the other end is suspended in the air to facilitate interference with the lower tooth arch drive section 8 and to follow the lower tooth arch cam 5.
[0041] The rotary output end 2 drives the cam mechanism to rotate, so that the presser foot lifting mechanism and the wire cutting mechanism can independently perform the presser foot lifting and wire cutting actions without interfering with each other.
[0042] The ratchet 15 of this invention has multiple ratchet teeth 18 and front reset grooves 17a and rear reset grooves 17b located at both ends of the multiple ratchet teeth 18. The retaining assembly includes a limiting block 19 rotatably mounted on the drive component mounting plate 2. The upper end of the limiting block 19 is connected to the drive component mounting plate 2 via a reset spring 20. The lower end of the limiting block 19 can engage with the ratchet teeth 18 to ensure that the ratchet 15 is kept in the current position, thereby maintaining the current tooth height. When the lower end of the limiting block 19 is located in the front reset groove 17a, the limiting block 19 releases its restriction on the ratchet 15, and the ratchet 15 is driven to reset by the reset structure. At this time, the lower end of the limiting block 19 is located in the rear reset groove 17b, and the teeth are at the initial height.
[0043] It should be noted that one end of the return spring 20 is mounted on the drive component mounting plate 2 by a screw. The return structure uses a return torsion spring 39.
[0044] In this embodiment, the ratchet 15 has three ratchet teeth 18, corresponding to tooth heights of 0.8mm, 1.0mm, and 1.2mm (thin, medium-thick, and thick materials), respectively, to accommodate sewing fabrics of different thicknesses. From the rear reset groove 17b to the front reset groove 17a, the order is thick material, medium-thick material, and thin material. When the tooth height is adjusted from thin material to thick material, the ratchet 15 first rotates until the lower end of the limiting block enters the front reset groove 17a. The reset structure drives the ratchet 15 to reset. At this time, the lower end of the limiting block 19 enters the rear reset groove 17b, and the teeth are at the initial height. Continuing to rotate the lower tooth arch cam 5 clockwise, the lower end of the limiting block 19 engages with the ratchet tooth 13 corresponding to the thick material.
[0045] This invention utilizes a tooth-lowering mechanism to drive a ratchet mechanism, automatically adjusting the tooth height. This solves the technical problem in existing technologies where manual tooth height adjustment by specialized technicians is required, reducing reliance on maintenance personnel at the processing site and improving the operational efficiency of garment factories. Furthermore, this invention can also achieve thread-cutting and presser foot lifting actions using the same motor, further improving production efficiency and reducing production costs for enterprises.
[0046] Furthermore, the presser foot mechanism includes a presser foot lever 21, a presser foot crank 22, and a presser foot roller 23 that contacts the outer cam surface of the presser foot cam 6. The presser foot roller 23 is disposed at one end of the presser foot lever 21. One end of the presser foot lever 21 extends to one side of the presser foot cam 6, and the other end rotates around the axis of the presser foot shaft 24. The presser foot crank 22 is fixed on the presser foot shaft 24. The presser foot crank 22 and the other end of the presser foot lever 21 abut against each other to drive the presser foot shaft 24 to rotate in one direction. The presser foot shaft 24 is connected to the presser foot 12 through the presser foot arm 25.
[0047] When the lifting foot cam 6 rotates to the point where the lifting foot drive section 10 contacts and connects with the lifting foot roller 23, the lifting foot drive section 10 drives the lifting foot lever 21 to rotate downward around the pressing foot shaft 24, which in turn drives the lifting foot crank 22 and the pressing foot shaft 24 to rotate, causing the pressing foot arm 25 to rotate upward around the pressing foot shaft 24 and the pressing foot 12 to be lifted upward.
[0048] When the lifting foot cam 6 rotates to the point where the lifting foot base segment 11 contacts and connects with the lifting foot roller 23, the lifting foot lever 21 does not move, and the pressing foot 12 also does not move.
[0049] In this utility model, the wire cutting mechanism includes a first driving lever 26 and a second driving lever 27 rotatably mounted on the housing 4. The first driving lever 26 is in contact with the outer cam surface of the wire cutting cam 7. One end of the second driving lever 27 is located below the first driving lever 26, and the other end is connected to one end of the wire cutting shaft 30 through the first connecting rod 28 and the first crank 29. The other end of the wire cutting shaft 30 is provided with a moving blade 31.
[0050] When cutting the thread, the thread cutting cam 7 rotates until the thread cutting drive section 13 contacts the first drive lever 26. The first drive lever 26 rotates downward, driving the second drive lever 27 and its connecting end to rotate downward and the other end to rotate upward. This, in turn, drives the thread cutting shaft 30 to rotate through the first connecting rod 28 and the first crank 29, thereby driving the moving blade 31 to cooperate with the fixed blade to cut the thread.
[0051] When the wire-cutting cam 7 rotates to the point where the wire-cutting base circle 14 contacts the first drive lever 26, the first drive lever 26 does not move.
[0052] It should be noted that after the first drive lever 26 rotates downward, it is reset by a reset component (such as a torsion spring).
[0053] The second drive lever 27 of this invention has a ball head 32 at one end, and the bottom surface of the first drive lever 26 has an arc-shaped surface. The ball head 32 is located below the arc-shaped surface, making the transmission between the two smoother.
[0054] Furthermore, the tooth lowering mechanism of this utility model includes a tooth adjusting lever 33 disposed on the drive component mounting plate 2. One end of the tooth adjusting lever 33 is rotatably connected to the drive component mounting plate 2, and the other end is connected to the tooth adjusting eccentric shaft 36 through the second connecting rod 34 and the second crank 35. The tooth adjusting eccentric shaft 36 is connected to the slide groove 38 at one end of the feeding tooth frame and the differential tooth frame through the slider 37. The other end of the feeding tooth frame and the differential tooth frame are respectively provided with the feeding tooth and the differential tooth.
[0055] The working principle of this utility model:
[0056] The rotating shaft 2 of the rotary drive 1 rotates counterclockwise, driving the wire-cutting cam 7 to rotate counterclockwise. When the wire-cutting drive section 13 on the wire-cutting cam 7 acts on the first lever 25, the first lever 25 rotates downward, driving one end of the second lever 26 to also rotate downward. The other end of the second lever 26 drives the wire-cutting shaft 30 to rotate through the first connecting rod 28 and the first crank 29, ultimately realizing the rotation of the moving blade 31 and its cooperation with the fixed blade to cut the wire. During the wire cutting process, the lifting foot base circle section 11 of the lifting foot cam 6 acts on the lifting foot lever 21, preventing it from rotating, and the lifting foot mechanism does not move; the tooth lower arch cam 5 rotates in the direction away from the top pin 16, the ratchet 15 does not rotate, the tooth adjusting lever 33 does not move, and the tooth height is at its original height.
[0057] The rotating shaft 2 of the rotary drive 1 rotates clockwise, and the lifting foot drive section 10 of the lifting foot cam 6 drives one end of the lifting foot lever 21 to rotate downward through the lifting foot roller 23, thereby driving the pressing foot shaft 24 to rotate and causing the pressing foot arm 25 to rotate upward around the pressing foot shaft 24, lifting the pressing foot 12 located at the other end of the pressing foot arm 25. During the lifting of the pressing foot, the wire-cutting base circle section 14 of the wire-cutting cam 7 acts on the first lever 25, and the first lever 25 does not rotate, so the wire-cutting mechanism does not operate; the rotating shaft 2 continues to rotate clockwise, and the tooth-lowering drive section 8 of the tooth-lowering cam 5 drives the tooth-adjusting lever 33 to operate, causing the lower teeth to lower. At this time, the ratchet mechanism does not operate.
[0058] After the lower tooth arch is achieved, the rotating shaft 2 of the rotary drive 1 continues to rotate clockwise. The lower tooth arch drive section 8 of the lower tooth arch cam 5 rotates until it abuts against the top pin 16. The clockwise rotation of the lower tooth arch cam 5 drives the ratchet 15 to rotate synchronously. At the same time, the lower tooth arch drive section 8 drives the tooth adjusting lever 33 to rotate, which in turn drives the tooth adjusting eccentric shaft 36 to rotate. The rotation amplitude of the tooth adjusting lever 33 controls different tooth heights. At this time, the limit block 14 meshes with different ratchet teeth 18 of the ratchet 15 to achieve multi-level tooth height adjustment. When adjusting the tooth height, the wire cutting cam 7 has its wire cutting base circle section 14 in contact with the first lever 25, and the wire cutting mechanism does not move. However, the pressure foot lifting drive section of the pressure foot lifting cam 6 is in contact with the pressure foot lifting lever 21, and the pressure foot is lifted.
[0059] Example 2:
[0060] This embodiment provides a sewing machine, including the automatic thread trimmer, presser foot lifter, and tooth lowering device described in the above embodiment.
[0061] The above embodiments are only one of the preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the shape, structure and principle of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
