Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sewing equipment technology, and in particular to a follow-up sewing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the textile processing industry, including apparel and home textiles, labels such as brand logos, composition information, washing instructions, and size tags serve as crucial carriers of product information and typically need to be securely and precisely fixed to designated locations on the fabric. Traditional label-to-fabric fixing processes rely primarily on manual operation or semi-automated equipment. The general process involves: first, manually placing the label in the target area of ​​the fabric using a simple clamp; then, manually pressing the label to ensure a tight fit; subsequently, manually adjusting the fabric position and aligning the sewing machine needle with the label edge, then operating the sewing machine to sew along the label outline segment by segment, ultimately securing the label to the fabric. However, manual label placement is susceptible to issues such as operator experience, visual errors, and hand stability, making it difficult to guarantee the relative position of the label and fabric. This is especially problematic in mass production, where label misalignment and tilting are common. Furthermore, uneven pressure distribution during manual label pressing can cause localized label lifting or wrinkling, further affecting the quality of subsequent sewing. Utility Model Content

In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0022] In the textile processing industry, including apparel and home textiles, labels such as brand logos, composition information, washing instructions, and size tags serve as crucial carriers of product information and typically need to be securely and precisely fixed to designated locations on the fabric. Traditional label-to-fabric fixing processes rely primarily on manual operation or semi-automated equipment. The general process involves: first, manually placing the label in the target area of ​​the fabric using a simple clamp; then, manually pressing the label to ensure a tight fit; subsequently, manually adjusting the fabric position and aligning the sewing machine needle with the label edge, then operating the sewing machine to sew along the label outline segment by segment, ultimately securing the label to the fabric. However, manual label placement is susceptible to issues such as operator experience, visual errors, and hand stability, making it difficult to guarantee the relative position of the label and fabric. This is especially problematic in mass production, where label misalignment and tilting are common. Furthermore, uneven pressure distribution during manual label pressing can cause localized label lifting or wrinkling, further affecting the quality of subsequent sewing.

[0023] Therefore, such as Figures 1 to 9As shown, the following is the following: ... Furthermore, a follower block 400 is fixedly connected to the pressing plate 330. During sewing, the follower block 400 can drive the pressing plate 330 to slide out of the positioning plate 320, gradually revealing the sewing path between the label and the fabric 201. It should be noted that the positioning plate 320 is driven vertically downward by the drive cylinder 310, firmly pressing the fabric 201 and label onto the worktable 200 to prevent displacement of the fabric 201 during sewing. The positioning plate 320 has a vertical through-hole positioning groove 3201 that matches the shape of the label, accurately positioning the initial position of the label and ensuring accurate relative positioning between the label and the fabric 201. In addition, the pressing plate 330 is horizontally slidably connected to the positioning plate 320 and has an avoidance groove 3301, which allows the pressing plate 330 to cover the top of the label before sewing. The label is flattened, and the seam area between the label and the fabric 201 is exposed during sewing through the avoidance groove 3301. The follower block 400 drives the pressing plate 330 to slide horizontally as the sewing machine head 110 progresses, gradually exposing more sewing paths. This avoids collisions or sewing interruptions caused by the pressing plate 330 covering the entire process. Thus, through the linkage of the mechanical structure, the problems of large deviations, low efficiency, poor safety, and sewing interference in traditional manual positioning operations are solved, significantly improving the accuracy, consistency, and production safety of label sewing.

[0024] It is understandable that the shape of the positioning groove 3201 matches the shape of the label. By precisely adapting to the outline of labels such as square, round, or other specific shapes, the label can naturally conform to the fabric 201 and its position is uniquely determined when embedded in the positioning groove 3201. This prevents the label from shifting or rotating before pressing, thereby further improving the accuracy of the initial positioning of the label and ensuring that the subsequent sewing path is strictly distributed along the edge of the label, improving the consistency and quality stability of the sewn product. In some embodiments of this utility model, the label is square. Combined with the regular geometric features of the square label, the structural design of the positioning groove 3201, the avoidance groove 3301, and the follower block 400 can adopt a standardized symmetrical layout, simplifying the overall structural design and manufacturing process of the device. At the same time, the square shape makes it easy to achieve precise alignment and automated control, reducing the positioning difficulty in the label placement and pressing process, and improving the adaptability and versatility of the device to common label shapes.

[0025] In some embodiments of this utility model, the clearance groove 3301 extends laterally on the horizontal plane, and the extension path of the clearance groove 3301 matches the adjacent edge line of the label, so that the layout of the clearance groove 3301 directly corresponds to the edge of the label to be sewn. The sewing machine head 110 can accurately pass through the pressing plate 330 through the clearance groove 3301 and align with the edge of the label for sewing, avoiding sewing offset or incomplete label sewing caused by the positional deviation of the clearance groove 3301. At the same time, it simplifies the process of adjusting the sewing path and ensures that the sewing trajectory closely matches the actual position of the label. Specifically, refer to Figures 2 to 5 , Figure 8 In some embodiments of this utility model, the clearance groove 3301 includes a long side segment 33011 and a short side segment 33012. The long side segment 33011 and the short side segment 33012 are combined to form an L-shape, so that the sewing machine head 110 can sew and fix the adjacent long and short sides of the label, enabling the sewing machine head 110 to sew two adjacent sides of the label continuously in sequence, avoiding sewing interruptions or path jumps. At the same time, the layout of the L-shaped clearance groove 3301 strictly matches the edge of the label, ensuring that the sewing trajectory accurately covers the edge line required for label fixing, further improving sewing efficiency and stitch strength. Furthermore, referring to... Figures 6 to 8 The clearance groove 3301 includes an overlapping section 33013, a long side section 33011, and a short side section 33012, all of which are connected to one end of the overlapping section 33013. The other end of the overlapping section 33013 extends outward along the extension direction of the long side section 33011 and passes through the pressing plate 330. It should be noted that the extension design of the overlapping section 33013 and the long side section 33011 is suitable for re-sewing the initial sewing position of the label, thereby enhancing the stability of the sewing between the label and the fabric 201.

[0026] Refer to Figures 1 to 5In some embodiments of this utility model, the sewing machine head 110 includes a sewing needle and a sleeve 111 located on the outer periphery of the sewing needle. A follower block 400 is located on one side of the sleeve 111 and abuts against the outer wall of the sleeve 111. This allows for dynamic avoidance of the pressing plate 330 without an additional power source, simplifying the control logic and transmission structure of the device. Simultaneously, the follower block 400 is driven by the kinetic energy of the sewing machine head 110 itself, improving the coordination and response speed of the various components and ensuring strict synchronization between the follower avoidance process and the sewing process. It is understood that the sleeve 111 is a fixed component, and the sewing needle reciprocates within the sleeve 111 to achieve sewing processing. Therefore, the structure of the sewing machine head 110 can refer to the structure of a conventional garment sewing machine head, and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] Optionally, the follower block 400 is made of wood and is glued and fixed to the press plate 330. Wood has the characteristics of being lightweight, having a low coefficient of friction, and being easy to process. The glued fixing method ensures that the follower block 400 is firmly installed and easy to replace and maintain, reducing the maintenance cost and assembly difficulty of the device.

[0028] Optionally, the pressing plate 330 is made of translucent acrylic, allowing operators to visually observe the pressing status of the label and the fabric 201 and the sewing process, facilitating real-time monitoring of whether the label is offset or whether the sewing path is accurate. At the same time, the acrylic material is lightweight and resistant to the impact of the sewing machine head 110, taking into account both structural strength and operational visibility, thus improving the ease of use and production control of the device.

[0029] In some embodiments of this utility model, the sewing machine head 110 is located in a fixed position above the worktable 200, and only performs sewing processing through the reciprocating motion of the sewing needle. For this purpose, the base 100 includes a drive assembly for driving the worktable 200 to move horizontally. Through the active displacement of the worktable 200, automated drive replaces manual movement of the fabric 201, further improving positioning accuracy and operational efficiency, and reducing the labor intensity of workers. For example, see reference... Figure 9 The drive assembly includes a first linear module 120 and a second linear module 130 arranged perpendicularly to each other on a horizontal plane. The first linear module 120, the second linear module 130, and the worktable 200 are sequentially connected for transmission, thereby driving the worktable 200 to move along the X and Y directions on the horizontal plane. It should be noted that the first linear module 120 and the second linear module 130 can refer to linear modules with common motor screw drive structures, which will not be described in detail here.

[0030] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
