FEED DEVICE FOR A SEWING-MACHINE Filed March 18, 1958 FIG 3 FIG.2
FIG. 4
z fiE QZS Irwin 3,919,756 FEED DEVICE Filth A SEWIIJG-MACHINE Luigi Bone, Pavia, Italy, assigns: to Necchi S.p,A.,
Pavia, Etaly, a firm Filed Mar. 18, 1958, Ser. No. 722,168 Claims priority, application Italy Apr. 12, 1957 12 filaims. (Cl. 112-415) Object of the present invention is a mechanical feeding unit for a sewing-machine.
As it is known the base plate of the sewing-machine has under the needle an opening through which protrudes a feed member provided with teeth. The feed member performs a composite movement along a rectangular path composed of rising, moving forward, going down and moving backwards.
Generally these movements are controlled by two distinct kinematic synchronized actuating means driven from the rotating main shaft of the machine, so that by means of cams or eccentrics the continuous rotary motion is transformed into oscillatory movements. Such movements, suitably in phase coincidence, are transmitted by means of shafts to the feed dog, which is thus operated to move along a rectangular path.
The device of the present invention directly actuates the feed dog, completely eliminating intermediate shafts. In this manner the unit functions very precisely and obtains a perfect seam.
Besides, due to its compact construction, it is particularly suitable for sewing sleeves, stockings etc.
The following description refers to the appended drawings in which FIG. 1 is a plan view of the feed device.
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2-2 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 33 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view taken on line 4-4 of FIG. 1.
The movement of the unit is obtained from a shaft 1, performing a continuous rotating movement, and driven by means not shown in the figures.
Said shaft carries two cams 2 and 3. Cam 2 causes the horizontal motion of feed dog and cam 3 causes its rising and sinking movement.
Cam 2 acts inside a fork 4, on one end of lever 5, and moves said lever in an oscillatory up and down movement. Lever 5 is fulcrumed at about half of its length on a pivot 6 on a vertical lever 7, which is fulcrumed on a fixed pivot 8.
Lever 5 pivotally supports on its other end the guide block 9 which is slidable in a guide 10 on shaft 11, which can be manually rotated and set in a selected position in order to obtain the regulation of the stitch length and of the feeding direction. The regulation is obtained by angularly displacing the trajectory of guide block 9 in guide it). Such angular rotations of guide 10 with respect to vertical a cause longitudinal motions of lever 5 during its oscillation, thus displacing pivot 6 and consequently lever 7 with respect to its middle position shown in FIG. 3.
These reciprocating motions cause an oscillation of lever 7, whose amplitude corresponds to the inclination of guide 10 with respect to the vertical. Besides, the oscillation will be influenced by placing the same end of guide it on different sides of a vertical plane a.
The oscillatory motion of lever 7 is directly transmitted to feed member 17 through slide 12 mounted on lever 7 by means of pivot 13. The slide actuates a bearing block 14 engaged thereby and consequently shifts feed dog 17 which is secured to block 14. Nevertheless the latter can rotate about the axis of pivot on which it is mounted for sliding movement in axial direction of the same together with block 14.
Block 14 and therefore feed dog 17 can therefore be displaced along the axis of pivot 15 while able to rotate about the axis of the same pivot.
Such rotation is utilized to obtain the up and. down movement of feed deg 17 by means or" eccentric cam 3 which acts on small adjustable plate 18 connected with the end of lever 19, which has its journal 20 on the base plate of the machine.
At about the middle of lever 19 a ball 21 is turnably mounted in a longitudinal slot 19 of lever I? and contacts the bottom face of feed member 17 to transmit the rising movement to the same. The downward movement of feed dog 17 is obtained by return spring 22.
Consequently, lever '7, actuated by lever 5, directly operates feed dog 17 in its forwards and backwards movement.
As it is shown in FIG. 3, the vertical lever 7 is provided with an opening 23 through which passes shaft 24 actuating the shuttle, not shown in the drawing.
One embodiment has been described as an example and variations of the form, the dimensions, the material and the assembly of the various members should be considered the limits of the present invention as defined in the claims.
