Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sewing technology, specifically to a pressure plate assembly for a bag-applying machine. Background Technology
[0002] In the garment manufacturing industry, patch pocket machines are commonly used for sewing pockets onto denim garments and shirts, precisely attaching pockets to the clothing. A pressure plate assembly is used to hold the pocket in place and facilitates the sewing process. Different styles or sizes of garments have different pocket shapes or sizes; therefore, the pressure plate needs to be modified and adjusted accordingly. A traditional approach is to equip each pocket style with a corresponding pressure plate assembly; when changing pocket sizes, the entire pressure plate needs to be replaced.
[0003] The pressure plate assembly typically includes an inner pressure plate and an outer pressure plate. Traditional bag-applying machines have certain limitations in the design and drive of the inner and outer pressure plates. The inner pressure plate of traditional bag-applying machines is driven by a cylinder, and the outer pressure plate is divided into left, center, and right sections, each driven by a cylinder. For example, CN222809692U discloses a quick-adjustment outer pressure frame and bag-applying machine, which allows for rapid adjustment of the spatial position of multiple pressure plates via a drive handle, enabling the outer pressure frame to be quickly adjusted for different fabric sizes. However, it does not disclose the structure and drive method of the inner pressure plate. The inner pressure plate is usually a fixed structure, requiring a separate mold for each style and size of bag. This results in high mold manufacturing costs, low efficiency, and difficulty in adapting to diverse production needs. Utility Model Content
