Detailed Description
The sewing machine 1 has a base plate 2 with a bed 3 extending upwardly therefrom and an angled arm 4. The arm ends with a head 5. The base plate 2, the bed 3, the arm 4 and the head 5 are enclosed by a housing 6 of the sewing machine 1. An arm shaft (not shown in the figure) is rotatably mounted in the arm 4. Which in the head 5 drives via a crank-link mechanism a needle bar 7 mounted axially movably in the head 5. The shank 7 has a needle 8 at its lower end. The needle can move up and down on the vertical shaft through a crank connecting rod mechanism. The needle 8 guides a needle thread (not shown) fed from a stitch (not shown) in an eye of the needle.
The base plate 2 supports a bed plate 9, and a sewing material to be sewn by the sewing machine 1 can be placed on the bed plate 9. The bottom plate 9 is divided into several parts. Part of the base plate 9 is a needle plate 10 (see for example fig. 2) which is screwed to the base plate 2. In the case of the non-needle feed sewing machine 1, the needle plate has a needle hole 11 through which the needle 8 passes. The needle board 10 also has a rectangular through-opening 12, through which the upper run of the lower slider 13 passes. The lower slide 13 is in driving connection in a known manner with a drive shaft which is arranged below the base plate 2. For the needle-feed sewing machine 1, the needle hole 11 can be designed in the lower slider 13.
When the sewing machine 1 is used for sewing, the gripper 14 engages the needle 8 in a known manner, and can be rotated about a vertical gripping axis. In the grip body 15 of the gripper 14, a pot-shaped bobbin case for accommodating the remaining grip thread or under thread is mounted.
A wire cutter or a wire drawing knife 16 is used to cut the clamping wire. The pull-wire knife can be swung about a vertical swing axis between a home position shown in fig. 4 and a wire sensing position shown in fig. 2. The oscillating movement of the wire cutter 16 is driven, for example, via a pneumatic drive. Other drive mechanisms may also be used.
In the illustration according to fig. 2, the thread-cutter 16 has a sickle-shaped basic shape, the free end of which extends around the bobbin case of the gripper 14 in the home position.
The blade surface 17 (see fig. 10) of the stay wire cutter 16 is fitted with the cutting edge of the stationary blade surface 18 of a fixed cutting wire 19 fixed to the housing for wire cutting. The stationary blade 19 has a roughly ground rectangular parallelepiped shape and has a stopper groove 19a for fixing a stopper pin 20 to the housing to set a stopper stationary blade position 19 at which the stationary blade 19 is swingably supported1、192(see fig. 9), which is carried out about a pivot axis 21 in a stationary knife holder yet to be described. Furthermore, the stationary knife 19 has a through-opening for the bearing pin 22 (see fig. 8). The bearing pin 22 predetermines the swing axis 21 of the stationary blade 19 swing-supported in the stationary blade accommodating portion.
The stationary blade accommodating portion 23 for the stationary blade 19 is a part of the stationary blade accommodating holder 24. The stationary blade housing holder is fixed to the housing 6 of the sewing machine 1 via a stationary blade holder 25.
The stationary blade receiving holder 24 is mounted positionally adjustably relative to the stationary blade holder 25.
The fixed knife 19 in the fixed knife containing part 23 fixed on the shell is at the first stop fixed knife position (see the position 19 in figure 9)1) And a second stop stationary knife position corresponding thereto (see position 19 in fig. 9)2) With respect to the position of the cutting stationary knife in the position area therebetween (see, for example, the position of the stationary knife 19 in fig. 10)) Is continuously adjustable and fixable. This continuous adjustment is carried out by the stationary blade 19 oscillating about the oscillation axis 21 within an oscillation range which is predetermined by the stop groove 19a in the circumferential direction about the oscillation axis 21. In the stop stationary knife position 191In (1), the stopper pin 20 is hit by the restricting wall of the stopper groove 19 a; and in a second stop stationary knife position 192In the middle, the stopper pin 20 is hit by the restricting wall of the opposite side stopper groove 19 a. The bearing pin 22 passes through a passage or bore 26 of the stationary knife 19 for pivotal mounting.
During the wire cutting process, the stationary knife 19 is continuously adjusted while being engaged with the wire cutter 16. For this purpose, the stationary blade 19 is floatingly mounted in the stationary blade accommodating portion 23.
In addition, the fixed knife 19 in the fixed knife holder 23 can be moved into the limit fixed knife position 19 by means of a fixed clamping device (not shown in the figures)1And 192And fixed at the desired fixed knife position. Then, when the cut surfaces of the wire cutter 16 and the fixed knife 19 are brought into contact with each other in cooperation with cutting, such fixation may be performed at the time of initial adjustment of the fixed knife 19. Then, in the relative cutting position of the stationary knife 19, it can be fixed in the stationary knife accommodating portion 23. This fixation is not mandatory.
The clamping spring 27 is fixed to the stationary blade receiving holder 24 via a screw 28. In the home position of the thread cutting knife 16 (see fig. 4), the thread clamping spring 27 cooperates with the thread cutting knife 16 to clamp and hold the cut thread, i.e. the upper thread and the lower thread.
The stationary knife 19 can be designed as a reversible stationary knife, that is to say can be designed such that it can be used in different orientations in the stationary knife holder, wherein the respective other cutting edge of the stationary knife cooperates with the blade face of the thread cutting knife 16 for thread cutting. The stationary knife 19 can in principle be constructed as described in EP 1992726 a1, except that the stationary knife 19 has a recess for the bearing pin 22 on the one hand and the retaining pin 20 on the other hand. Also stationary knives may be used in different directions, for example as disclosed in WO 95/19245 a1 or DE 3621785 a 1.
After sewing by means of the sewing machine 1, the thread cutting knife is operated, wherein it is first transferred from the home position to the thread detecting position, and then, after detecting the upper thread and the lower thread, it is transferred again to the home position. In this case, the wire cutting is carried out by the engagement of the blade surface 17 with the stationary blade 19 and the cut wire is then held in a defined manner between the wire cutter 16 and the wire clamping spring 27.
The sewing machine may be a sewing machine that feeds a sewing material in the form of a pulley. The sewing machine 1 can be designed as a cylinder sewing machine. The sewing machine 1 can also be designed as a platform-type or free-arm sewing machine. The described configuration of the thread cutting/stationary knife can be applied to vertical sewing machines, in addition to the horizontal sewing machine exemplified in the figures, for which the bed is extended vertically instead of horizontally and the stitch forming tool is correspondingly inclined by 90 °.
