するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a button feeding device suitable for feeding a button to a sewing position of a sewing machine in a button sewing machine.
一般に、ボタン縫付はミシンにおいてボタンをミシンの
縫い付は位置（針落点）に自動的に供給する自動ボタン
供給装置が知られている。In general, an automatic button feeding device is known that automatically feeds a button to a sewing position (needle drop point) of a sewing machine in a button sewing machine.

製斜を示す。Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 9, this type of feeding device includes a button feeder ball 1, an inclined chute 2 directly connected to the button feeder ball, and a button/set machine groove 3 connected to the inclined chute. There is. The button/feeder ball 1 has a known configuration in which it has a vibrating plate 4 that accommodates a number of buttons (not shown), and feeds the buttons one by one into the inclined chute 2 by vibration of the vibrating plate. The inclined chute 2 is composed of a hollow band-shaped body of tightly wound wire having a rectangular cross section, and the button falls through this chute under its own weight. The button/setting mechanism 6 sequentially feeds and tacks the buttons from the inclined chute and arranges them in an orderly manner and feeds them to the sewing position of the button 5. In FIG. 9, reference numeral 6 indicates the sewing slope of the sewing machine.
しかしながら、上述の如き従来技術では、ボタンフィー
ダボールの振動皿の振動によって各ボタンに静電気が発
生し、これら静電気を帯びたボタンが傾斜シュート内壁

ないという欠点があった。％Ｋ、傾斜シュート内にはボ
タンフィーダボールからボタンが連続的且つ自重で送ら
れるのでボタン送シの詰まる可能性はきわめて高いもの
であった。However, with the above-mentioned conventional technology, static electricity is generated on each button due to the vibration of the vibrating plate of the button feeder ball, and the buttons charged with static electricity may land on the inner wall of the inclined chute or adjacent buttons may come into close contact with each other. This has the drawback that button feeding cannot be carried out smoothly. %K, since buttons are continuously fed into the inclined chute from the button feeder ball under their own weight, there is a very high possibility that the button feeder will become jammed.
又、従来技術ではボタンフィーダボールとボタンセット
機構との間に傾斜シュートを介在させているのでボタン
送給行程が長い上構成が複雑になり且つ高価になるとい
う欠点があった。Further, in the prior art, since an inclined chute is interposed between the button feeder ball and the button setting mechanism, there are disadvantages in that the button feeding stroke is long and the structure is complicated and expensive.
上述の如き従来技術の欠点を解決するために、本発明は

サー板を入れる方法がある。The other side plate 12 is provided with an elongated hole 16 into which a screw 14 is inserted, so that the side plate is movable in the direction indicated by the arrow in FIG. It is preferable to make the side plate movable in this manner because the width of the conveyance path can be adjusted appropriately depending on the size of the button 17 (FIG. 1). Further, as a method for adjusting the thickness of the button, there is a method of inserting a spacer plate between the side plate 12 and the top plate 16.

The feeding body includes, for example, a disk 26 and a button accommodation groove 2 formed in this disk.
It consists of 4. As shown in FIG. 1, the feeding body receives the button 17 from the button feeder ball through the button conveyance path l0=i, and rotates about 90 clockwise from this position in the clockwise direction as seen in FIG. It is repeatedly rotated back and forth by the driving means 22 between the feeding position and the feeding position where it is forcibly fed to the setting mechanism.

回路（図示せず）とから成っている。In the present invention, a control means for controlling the timing of sending the button of the sending body 21 is provided. This control means is located adjacent to the machine frame 33 so that it is turned on when the pivot arm pivots to move the button toward the sewing position. The first sensor 40 (Fig. 6) attached to the
and a second sensor 41 (FIG. 1) for detecting a button passing through the button transport path 10, and a sentence control circuit (not shown) connected to these sensors.

。The link mechanism 32 includes a connecting rod 55 connected to a drive body (not shown) and a first lever 34 connected to the tip of this connecting rod.
and a second lever 65 read directly from the first lever. The first sensor 40 has a fork 40-, and when the tip of the second lever 35 enters the fork 40, the first sensor is turned on. As described above, the tip of the second lever 65 enters the forked portion during the process in which the pivot arm 50 moves the button to the sewing position.

is activated and forces the button into the button set mechanism. At this time, the second sensor 41 confirms the passage of the button. That is, it is detected that one button has been sent to the button setting mechanism. In this case, if the button is not detected, the driving means drives the sending body to the button receiving position and repeats this operation until the button is sent.

。As described above, according to the present invention, since the button is forcibly fed toward the button setting mechanism, the button feeding can be performed reliably without being affected by static electricity, which has been a problem in conventional feeding. There are advantages. In addition, by controlling all 16 feeding timings of the feeding body, the buttons can be fed intermittently in a well-ordered manner, so there is an advantage that reliable button feeding can be achieved. Further, since the button feeder pole and the button setting mechanism can be directly connected without using a long inclined chute as in the conventional method, there is a practical benefit that the soil structure that allows safe and smooth feeding is simplified and is inexpensive.
