Definitions
- the invention relates to a sewing machine having a thread finger assembly.
- Sewing machines are known in many embodiments, for example from EP 3 088 589 B1, EP 3 360 994 A1, U.S. Pat. No. 6,276,289 B1 and DE 10 2013 107 270 B3.
- DE 20 2012 104 187 U1 discloses a chain stitch sewing machine.
- DE 87 13 500 U1 discloses a double chain stitch sewing machine with a hook and a hook thread spreader.
- thread beginning portions may be drawn away from a visible region of the sewing material in a controlled manner at the seam beginning. In this case, there is no thread beginning portion in the visible region that might spoil the visual appearance. The sewn seam begins with a neat stitch.
- the fingertip of the at least one thread finger is located between a hook and a stitch plate of the sewing machine. Such an arrangement of the fingertip of the at least one thread finger enables secure catching of the thread loop.
- the loop pull-out position of the at least one thread finger may at the same time be a neutral position of the thread finger, in which it may remain during further sewing after its use at the seam beginning.
- the thread loop pulled out by the thread finger of the thread finger assembly may be an upper thread loop.
- the thread finger may be of small thickness.
- a bent embodiment of the at least one thread finger according to the invention results in the thread finger occupying very little installation space during its displacement movement in the critical stitch forming region.
- the bending of the bent thread finger embodiment may be adapted to a displacement movement of the thread finger with respect to its curvature, so that a trajectory of the thread finger is at least approximately bent like the thread finger.
- a catcher hook disposed at the free end of the at least one thread finger has proven to be particularly suitable for securely catching the thread loop.
- a thread finger assembly having two thread fingers which can be assigned to two thread loops of a two-needle sewing machine may be used together with a two-needle sewing machine.

- thread finger drive designed as a pneumatic drive.
- an electric motor drive may be used as the thread finger drive.
- the sewing machine may be a chain stitch sewing machine and, in particular, a double chain stitch sewing machine.
- a thickness of the thread finger in the direction of the distance between the hook and the stitch plate of the sewing machine which is at most 2 mm makes it possible to guide a hook tip of the hook close to the stitch plate despite the finger tip of the thread finger being intermediate in the loop engagement position, which leads to the possibility of working with short thread loops and correspondingly to short possible thread beginning portions and thread end portions.
- the distance between the hook and the stitch plate where the thread finger engages between these two components need only be configured slightly larger than the thickness of the thread finger, for example at most 2 mm larger than the thickness of the thread finger.
- the thickness of the thread finger in the direction of the distance between the hook and the stitch plate is preferably at most 1.8 mm and may in particular be at most 1.5 mm.
- a small width of the thread finger transverse to its longitudinal extension being smaller than 5 mm allows a clean engagement even with small thread loops, which in turn keeps the maximum thread length required for the thread loop advantageously small.
- the width of the thread finger transverse to the longitudinal extension thereof may be less than 4 mm, may be less than 3 mm and may also be less than 2 mm.
- FIG. 1 perspectively shows main components of a sewing machine of a sewing system for sewing, in particular, seams located multi-dimensionally in space;
- FIG. 2 from a viewing direction similar to FIG. 1 , shows a magnified thread finger assembly of the sewing machine, wherein thread fingers of the thread finger assembly are in a loop engagement position for the engagement in thread loops generated by the sewing machine in a stitch forming region;
- FIG. 3 perspectively, in a front view, shows stitch forming components of the sewing machines, including the thread fingers, again in the loop engagement position;

patent application DE 10 2019 205 303.3, filed Apr. 12, 2019, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. - The invention relates to a sewing machine having a thread finger assembly.
- Sewing machines are known in many embodiments, for example from
EP 3 088 589 B1,EP 3 360 994 A1, U.S. Pat. No. 6,276,289 B1 and DE 10 2013 107 270 B3. - DE 20 2012 104 187 U1 discloses a chain stitch sewing machine. DE 87 13 500 U1 discloses a double chain stitch sewing machine with a hook and a hook thread spreader.
- It is an object of the present invention to further develop an assembly of a sewing machine such that an appealing seam pattern is generated in a reproducible manner at a seam beginning.
- This object is achieved according to the invention by a sewing machine with a thread finger assembly
-
- with at least one thread finger, which can be actuated between a
- loop engagement position for the engagement of the thread finger in a thread loop generated by the sewing machine in a stitch forming region and a
- loop pull-out position, which is displaced away from the stitch forming region relative to the loop engagement position for pulling out the thread loop with the thread finger,
- with a thread finger drive for actuating the thread finger between the loop engagement position and the loop pull-out position,
- wherein in the loop engagement position a fingertip of the at least one thread finger is located between a hook and a stitch plate of the sewing machine.
- with at least one thread finger, which can be actuated between a
- According to the invention, it has been found that with the aid of a thread finger assembly with at least one thread finger, thread beginning portions may be drawn away from a visible region of the sewing material in a controlled manner at the seam beginning. In this case, there is no thread beginning portion in the visible region that might spoil the visual appearance. The sewn seam begins with a neat stitch.
- In the loop engagement position, the fingertip of the at least one thread finger is located between a hook and a stitch plate of the sewing machine. Such an arrangement of the fingertip of the at least one thread finger enables secure catching of the thread loop.
- The loop pull-out position of the at least one thread finger may at the same time be a neutral position of the thread finger, in which it may remain during further sewing after its use at the seam beginning. The thread loop pulled out by the thread finger of the thread finger assembly may be an upper thread loop.
- The thread finger may be of small thickness.
- A bent embodiment of the at least one thread finger according to the invention results in the thread finger occupying very little installation space during its displacement movement in the critical stitch forming region.
- The bending of the bent thread finger embodiment may be adapted to a displacement movement of the thread finger with respect to its curvature, so that a trajectory of the thread finger is at least approximately bent like the thread finger.
- A catcher hook disposed at the free end of the at least one thread finger has proven to be particularly suitable for securely catching the thread loop.
- A thread finger assembly having two thread fingers which can be assigned to two thread loops of a two-needle sewing machine may be used together with a two-needle sewing machine.
- A slotted guide for guiding a displacement movement of the thread finger between the loop engagement position and the loop pull-out position has proven to be particularly suitable for guiding the displacement movement in a reproducible and quick manner.
- This applies correspondingly to the thread finger drive designed as a pneumatic drive. Alternatively, an electric motor drive may be used as the thread finger drive.
- The sewing machine may be a chain stitch sewing machine and, in particular, a double chain stitch sewing machine.
- A thickness of the thread finger in the direction of the distance between the hook and the stitch plate of the sewing machine which is at most 2 mm makes it possible to guide a hook tip of the hook close to the stitch plate despite the finger tip of the thread finger being intermediate in the loop engagement position, which leads to the possibility of working with short thread loops and correspondingly to short possible thread beginning portions and thread end portions. The distance between the hook and the stitch plate where the thread finger engages between these two components need only be configured slightly larger than the thickness of the thread finger, for example at most 2 mm larger than the thickness of the thread finger. The thickness of the thread finger in the direction of the distance between the hook and the stitch plate is preferably at most 1.8 mm and may in particular be at most 1.5 mm.
- A small width of the thread finger transverse to its longitudinal extension being smaller than 5 mm allows a clean engagement even with small thread loops, which in turn keeps the maximum thread length required for the thread loop advantageously small. The width of the thread finger transverse to the longitudinal extension thereof may be less than 4 mm, may be less than 3 mm and may also be less than 2 mm.
- An embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing.
