Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sewing machine technology and relates to a sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure. Background Technology

[0002] A sewing machine is a machine that sews fabric together using thread. A sewing machine consists of a needle bar mechanism, thread take-up mechanism, feed mechanism, thread hook mechanism, pressing mechanism, thread winding device, and lubrication device, among which the pressing mechanism includes a presser foot for pressing the fabric down.

[0003] Traditional presser feet typically adjust pressure by compressing a spring using an adjusting screw. However, this method lacks real-time pressure control, and the spring pressure varies significantly between thin and thick materials. Another approach directly adjusts presser foot pressure by controlling the rotational force of a motor, as illustrated in patent document CN204199003U. This sewing machine includes a servo motor, whose output shaft is fixedly connected to a roller. The outer ring of the roller is connected to one end of a pull rod, and the other end of the pull rod is connected to one end of a swing plate. The other end of the swing plate is fixedly connected to a slider, which is embedded in the slider groove of the presser foot crank. The presser foot crank is fixed to a vertically mounted presser foot rod, which also has a pulley bracket. The pulley bracket has a pin and a pulley fixedly mounted on it. The pin movably passes through a guide seat with a transverse groove. The pulley connects to the presser foot bracket, and the presser foot is fixedly mounted on the presser foot bracket.

[0004] In the aforementioned sewing machine, the servo motor rotates, driving the presser foot upwards to lift it, allowing the fabric to be placed on the feed plate below the presser foot. The servo motor then rotates in the opposite direction, driving the presser foot downwards to press the fabric firmly against the feed plate. The fabric is then moved via the feed bracket to perform the sewing operation. The pressure applied to the fabric during sewing is controlled by the rotational force of the servo motor, allowing for different pressure settings for different fabrics. However, in this sewing machine, the presser foot lever is only limited by a pin and rollers, making it prone to circumferential wobbling during operation, affecting the stability of the sewing machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by proposing a sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure, thus solving the technical problem of insufficient working stability in existing sewing machines.

[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure includes a machine housing, a motor fixed to the machine housing, a swing plate hinged to the machine housing, and a presser foot rod that passes through the machine housing and can slide up and down. A sliding seat is fixedly connected to the presser foot rod. A pull rod is connected between the swing plate and the motor shaft. A sliding block embedded in the sliding seat is also hinged to the swing plate. A presser foot assembly is connected to the lower end of the presser foot rod. The machine housing has a guide seat located on one side of the presser foot rod. The guide seat has a vertically arranged guide groove on the side facing the presser foot rod. A fixing block located below the sliding seat is fixedly connected to the presser foot rod. A slider embedded in the guide groove is hinged to the fixing block. The two sides of the slider are respectively abutted against the two sides of the guide groove.

[0007] When the sewing machine is working, the motor rotates, driving the swing plate to swing via a pull rod. The swing plate, through a sliding block, drives the sliding seat and presser foot bar to move up and down. During the up-and-down movement of the presser foot bar, the slider slides within the guide groove of the guide seat. The two sides of the slider are respectively in contact with the two sides of the guide groove, thus limiting the slider's position. This, in turn, restricts the presser foot bar circumferentially by the cooperation of the slider and the guide seat, reducing circumferential wobbling of the presser foot bar. Therefore, this sewing machine can improve operational stability.

[0008] In the aforementioned sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure, the fixed block has a cylindrical protrusion, and the slider is fitted onto the protrusion. After the slider is fitted onto the protrusion of the fixed block, rotating the slider can adjust its circumferential position on the protrusion, allowing the slider to better adapt to the guide seat and ensuring smooth sliding.

[0009] In the aforementioned sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure, the guide seat's side facing away from the presser foot bar rests against the inner side of the machine housing, and the guide seat is fixedly connected to the machine housing by bolts. Several bolts are located on one side of the guide groove and are arranged vertically. This ensures the guide seat is stably fixed to the machine housing, thereby stabilizing the presser foot bar through the slider and the guide seat's circumferential positioning, thus ensuring stable operation of the sewing machine.

[0010] In the aforementioned sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure, a motor base is fixedly connected to the machine housing, the motor is fixedly connected to the motor base, a drive gear is fixedly connected to the motor shaft, and a driven gear meshing with the drive gear is hinged to the motor base. One end of the pull rod is hinged to the driven gear. When the motor is working, it drives the drive gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear to rotate, thereby driving the presser foot lever to move up and down via the pull rod. The drive and driven gears allow for speed reduction, enabling more precise control of the presser foot by the motor.

[0011] In the aforementioned sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure, the motor base has an arc-shaped limiting groove, into which the hinge shaft between the pull rod and the driven gear is embedded. The limiting groove is used to limit the rotation angle of the driven gear, preventing excessive rotation.

[0012] In the aforementioned sewing machine with adjustable presser foot pressure, an oil groove is provided on the side of the slider. The oil groove can store lubricating oil, which provides lubrication for the slider's sliding motion, allowing the slider to slide smoothly within the guide groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: A fixed block is fixedly connected to the presser foot bar, located below the sliding seat. A slider is hinged to the fixed block. The slider is embedded in the guide groove of the guide seat, and the two sides of the slider are respectively in contact with the two sides of the guide groove of the guide seat. The cooperation between the guide seat and the slider limits the presser foot bar in the circumferential direction, reduces the wobbling of the presser foot bar in the circumferential direction, and makes the sewing machine work stably.
