Definitions

  • FIG. 2 MEANS FOR ADJUSTING THE STROKE OF THE FEED DOG IN SEWING-MACHINES Filed Nov. :50, 1956 FIG. 2
  • the present invention relatesto a device for stopping said actuating lever in any chosen position, that is to a device making it possible to establish the feed dog displacing amplitude each time in any desired manner, and'keeping said amplitude equal for both the forward and the backward displacing; said device differs from already known devices of the same kind due to a particular structure adapted to give it a wide possibility of varying the stop-position, assuring, at the same time, by simple means, a speedy and safe operation.
  • This device is characterized in that two double-armed levers, mounted on two pivots respectively placed on either side of the pivot of the actuating lever of the adjusting mechanism, are so combined with two cams mounted the one over the other, with different orientation on a common pivot, that said cams, placed between two corresponding arms of said levers, held by springs adherent to the cams, impart by their rotation in either direction a movement for opening or shutting respectively said levers like scissors said levers serving by means of their other two arms as stops for a pivot carried by the actuating lever of the adjusting mechanism.
  • the spring by means of which the lever for determining the forward displacing of the cloth-pushing feed dog is held adherent to the corresponding driving cam, is disposed in such a manner as to always hold said lever approached to the stop of the actuating lever of the adjusting mechanism, the latter lever being thus always carried along by said former lever, in its movement.
  • the only driving of the stop device according to the invention is sufficient for producing, at the same time, the driving of forward seam of the adjusting mechanism, thus greatly simplifying the relative handling.
  • Fig. 1 shows in front view the device in a zero position, that is in the position not displacing the feed dog
  • Fig. 2 is a cross section ofthe device according to lines A-B of Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a front view of the device shown in position for a maximum stitch length
  • Fig. 4 shows a modification of the driving means for the actuating lever of the adjusting mechanism.
  • pin 1 preferably eccentric for the phase adjusting, is fixed on bell crank lever 2 actuating the mechanism for adjusting the dis placement of the cloth-feeding dog, that is to the lever, the position of which through a mechanism shown in More British Patent No. 788,081, controls the pitch and the displacing direction. of the feed dog transporting the cloth.
  • Lever 2 is fixed on pivot 3 adapted to rotate in hole 4 of bearing 5 fixed to the machine frame. Externally to hearing 5, handle 6 for shifting lever 2 is fixed on pivot 3.' Pin 1 is restrained in its displacings about the axis of pivot 3 by the two arms 7 and 8 of the two levers 9 and 10, respectively pivoted at 11 and 12.
  • the other two arms 13 and 14 of levers 9 and 10 have the respective surfaces 15 and 16 always in contact with the peripheral surfaces 17 and 18 respectively, of two cams 19 and 20 similar to each other but having different orientation, said cams being mounted on shaft 21 rotated from the outside by knob 22.
  • These cams can be relatively displaceable between each other for the phase adjusting,,and can be fixed on shaft 21 after the displacing.
  • Pin 1 of lever 2 is always held against arm 7 by spring 23, which keeps the cam-engaging surface 15 on cam 17.
  • Cam-engaging surface 16 of arm 14 is always held in engagement with cam 18 by a spring 24.
  • knob 22 is provided with a graduation 29 adapted to be read in correspondence of the fixed index 39, the graduation values, for instance, can cor- 3 respond to millimeters of the feed dog displacement for each stitch.
  • Fig. 3 shows cams l9 and 20 and, respectively lever, 7 and 8 in position of a maximum opening corresponding to the maximum stitch length: lever 2 can be brought, according to arrow 28, from where pin 1 is in position 31 to where it is in position 32, thus preparing the feed dog for the maximum forward and, respectively, backward stroke.
  • lever 2 carries another arm 2 connected through tie rod 33 to end 34 of a lever pivoted at 35 and being remote from lever 2; the rotation of lever 2 is effected by actuating lever 36, all the remainder working as previously described.
  • Mechanism for controlling the setting of a feed dog control lever comprising a feed dog control lever, said lever having a pin on one arm thereof, a shaft rotatably mounting said lever, second and third shafts disposed on opposite sides of said first shaft, a pair of displacement control levers mounted on said second and third shafts and having cam follower surfaces on the lower arms thereof and engagement surfaces for said pin on the upper arms thereof, and adjustable cam means contacting said cam follower surfaces to vary the positions of said displacement control levers and thereby control the range of movement of said pin and feed dog control lever.
  • said adjustable cam means comprising a pair of cam plates mounted on a common shaft, and means to turn said shaft to vary the setting of said cams.
