Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Mechanism for enabling an overedging or other edge-treating machines automatically to operate progressively about the periphery of successive flexible work pieces, especially those of fabric having margin configuration including portions of constant convex curvature.
  • improvements and refinements relating, for instance and without limitation, to automatic corner turning, to marginal label securement in the course of each operating cycle, so called sewing-off near the end of the cycle, kickout of the work piece from the operating zone, and associated thread cutoff, all contribute towards increasing productivity and relieving burden on an operator to the extent that the operator may simultaneously attend more than one machine.
  • Face cloths, work towels and wipe cloths require their edges to be uniformly and smoothly formed and secured by stitching or other suitable processing. They are commonly of limp cloth and differ greatly in shape, size, and other physical characteristics. Very often they have generally rectangular perimetcrs comprised of four rectilinear and four convexly curved or corner" marginal portions.
  • edge finishing machines such as overedgers can operate at high speed, i.e., with large numbers of stitches per second, and neatly trim when performing straight line operations, but that under manual manipulation turning of corners, even though of fixed radius, is apt to result in considerably diminished output, less uniform quality in the results, and increased defects in work pieces.
  • the cited copending application pertains to work quidance and certain related improvements seeking to more effectively deal with attaining the full output of which the stitcher or like margin processing machine is capable regardless of work piece configuration.
  • the usual rectilinear feed means of an overedging machine is supplemented in the Kitchener et al disclosure, when negotiating curvature, by work guidance mechanism responsive to the position of an edge of the work ahead of the needle relative to an edge gage.
  • the guidance mechanism includes a work turning member engageable with the work on the bed and rotatable to swing the work and thus substantially maintain its edge gage contact. While in general the Kitchener et al arrangement is advantageous, it is considered highly desirable to refine this with further automatic features and improvements insuring greater industrial output while aiding the operator in handling automatically a wider variety of work pieces with fewer, if any, irregulars being produced.
  • the former and the present embodiment of the invention enable a more or less conventional machine, such as an overedger, to be used in a fabric handling system more effectively and without significant change in its structure.
  • an improved guidance control system is provided together with mechanism for automatically terminating the edge finishing operation substantially at the edge locality where it started.
  • a further feature of the invention resides in the provision of an automatic mechanism for severing the overedging thread when the finishing operation is terminated and then ejecting the work from the operating zone.
  • Another feature of the invention pertains to incorporation in an edge finishing machine of a tag or label positioning mechanism whereby an operator, either before or after initially presenting a work piece to the machine, merely places the tag or label in a safe and convenient loading position and the positioning mechanism insures that the tag or label will be accurately secured to the margin of the work piece.
  • Another feature resides, in a machine of the aforesaid type, in provision of a margin finishing tool, means for sensing approach to the operating tool of a work margin to be given a are processing by the tool, and mechanism responsive to the sensing means for engaging the work substantially at the center of the are curvature and a point spaced therefrom to rotate the work about the center until the tool has operated over the 90 arc and then be disengaged.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an automatic edge finishing machine wherein work pieces are to be successively operated upon, for instance by an overedge sewing machine of known type;
  • FIG. 2 is a view in front elevation of the machine shown in FIG. 1, in inoperative condition and with portions broken away;
  • FIG. 3 is a view in side elevation of major portions of the machine shown in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a view in front elevation of portions of the machine including a label or loop applying mechanism shown in FIG. v2;
  • FIG. 5 is a plan view of a major portion of the operating instrumentalities shown in FIG. 2 including a work supporting table and holddown plate together with corner turning mechanism;
  • FIG. 6 is a view corresponding to a portion of FIG. 5 and indicating relationship of a sewing machine needle and the label or loop feed finger mechanism shown in FIG. 4;
  • FIG. 7 is an enlarged vertical section taken on the line .VII-VII of FIG. 6 showing the steps in presentation of a label to the needle operating zone;
  • FIG. 8 is an enlarged plan view corresponding to a portion of FIG. 5, and showing the edge gages and sewoff means in relation to feed dog mechanism and cor ner turning means;
  • FIG. 9 is a plan view illustrating automatic retracting of an edge gage to accommodate corner trimming and guidance
  • FIG. 10 is a plan view illustrating the sew-off mechanism at termination of operation
  • FIG. 11 is a vertical section of a collapsible work turning center shown in FIGS. 2-4;
  • FIGS. 12 and 13 are views in side elevation showing sequentially operation of the automatic work kickout mechanism.
  • FIG. 14 is a plan view of thread cutoff mechanism operative after work kickout
  • An edge finishing machine generally designated 10 (FIGS. 1-4), which may for instance be an overedging machine of commercially available type, is fixedly mounted on a horizontal plate 12 bolted onto a table 14. Also mounted on the plate 12 is a hollow platform for a flat work supporting table or bed 16 (FIGS. 2-6) disposed with a cut-away portion to accommodate an overedging needle 18 of the machine 10, and usual rectilinear feed dog and presser foot mechanism 20.
  • a work piece W (FIGS. 8-13) to be edge finished is herein assumed to be generally rectangular sheet material, i.e., to have four straight sides interconnected by four corners to be rounded as is the usual case with a large number of items. It will be understood from what follows that the machine can marginally process sheet material to be provided in part with constant convex curvature margins but not a work piece having a concave portion in its periphery due to the nature of the corner turning mechanism later described.
  • a bracket 22 (FIGS. 1-5) is secured on the plate 12 and, by means of a hinge pin 24 (FIGS. 3 and pivotally supports an upper frame 26 whereby a handle 27 can be used, when desired, to tilt the frame 26 and all mechanism associated therewith as will be explained to an out-of-the-way position permitting full access to the sewing machine and its bed 16.
  • an automatic and further improved corner turning mechanism is provided and operative in response to a light sensor 28 signaling work edge interruption or clearance and hence change in margin contour approaching the operating zone of the needle 18 and an adjacent pair of margin trimming shears 30,30 (FIGS. 8-10) conventionally provided with the overedging machine 10.
  • the comer turning mechanism includes a work swinging finger 32 movable heightwise into and out of work engaging relation as controlled by the edge sensing means 28 in the manner described in the cited copending application.
  • this corner sensing means 28 further recreates a fixed turning center by causing a yieldable rotary clamp 34 (FIGS. 2-4 and 11) simultaneously to engage the work W on the bed substantially at the center of the marginal corner curvature to be trimmed and overedged. This is accomplished while the needle and feed dog mechanism 20 continue operation at regular speed as will now be described.
  • a composite, ordinarily straight-lined edge gage 36-38 comprised of the front or workcontacting ends of a forked horizontally retractable edge sensor 36 (FIGS. 2, 4, and 8) and of a forked, horizontally advanceable sew-off sensor 38.
  • a straight side edge of each work piece W will initially be positioned under the needle 18 and in abutment with this composite edge gage 36-38 prior to starting the stitcher 10 by suitable means such as actuation of a foot switch not shown.
  • the rotary clamp 34 is driven continuously, while a motor 40 (FIG. 3) driving the stitcher 10 is in operation, by means of a motor 41 (FIGS.
  • a solenoid plunger 54 coupled to the spindle 46 and acting against the spring 50 causes the clutch member 48 to descent to axially engage the clutch pulley 44 and thereby lower the clamp 34 while it rotates counterclockwise as viewed from above, this clamp being slidably mounted in an extension 56 (FIGS. 2-4 and 11) coupled to the lower end of the spindle 46.
  • the upper limit of movement of the solenoid plunger 54 is determined by its abutment with a bracket 57 (FIG. 3) secured to the frame 26.
  • a stem of the clamp 34 is longitudinally slotted to receive a cross pin 58 secured in the extension 56, and a spring 60 nested in the extension urges the clamp downwardly against the work when it is caused by the solenoid 52 to be engaged.
  • the effective rotation of the clamp 34 continues for substantially 90, i.e., until a light beam directed from a source on the opposite side of the work to the sensor 28 again is being interrupted by the work margin, when the solenoid 52 is deenergized to declutch and allow raising of the member 48 with the spindle 46.
  • a tension spring 62 (FIG. 3) connecting an arm 64 secured on the spindle 46 with the frame 26 thereupon acts to return a free end of the arm 64 for abutment with a stop 66 secured to the frame 26.
  • the clamp 34 While the clamp 34 is serving as turning center, the work swinging finger 32 depending from an end of an arm 68 secured to the extension 56, is frictionally engaging as by means of card cloth a portion of the work accessible through an arcuate slot 70 (FIGS. 5-8) in a work-spreading or upper workconfining plate 72 functioning largely as does the plate designated 30 in the mentioned Kitchener et al application.
  • the work is accordingly swung about the axis of the spindle 46 to enable the convex margin to be finished and to enable connecting straight margins to be similarly processed, all without decrease in operating speed.
  • the sensor 28 also acts, when the clamp 34 engages the work, to energize a solenoid 74 (FIGS. 5 and 8) connected by links 76,78'to the edge sensor 36 whereby the latter is retracted from possible interference with the original corner margin M to be rounded off.
  • a solenoid 74 (FIGS. 5 and 8) connected by links 76,78'to the edge sensor 36 whereby the latter is retracted from possible interference with the original corner margin M to be rounded off.
  • a spring restores the edge gage to its normal gaging position.
  • an air stream is directed through a nozzle 79 (FIG. 14) for urging margin material under the presser foot.
  • the top plate 72 is of low friction material, desirably plexiglass, and is adjustable heightwise in its operating position to accommodate difi'erent thicknesses of work W.
  • the plate 72 depends horizontally from a vertical slide 80 (FIGS. 2 and 3) movable heightwise in a guideway formed in the bracket 22 between adjustable limits as next explained.
  • a bracket 82 secured to the slide 80 carries a cylinder 84 (FIG. 3) having a rubber tipped piston 86 arranged, at its upper position, to abut a threaded stop 88.
  • This stop 88 is adjusted heightwise in a lug 90 projecting from the frame 26 by means of a thumb screw 92 an upper edge of which serves as an indicator and may have its position read against a vertical scale 94 affixed to the frame 26.
  • a set screw 96 threaded into the lug 90 engages the stop 88 to lock it in selected heightwise position.
  • a tension spring 98 interconnecting the slide 80 and the frame 26 automatically restores the plate 72 to a relatively raised inoperative position when the edge finishing )s completed to allow automatic removal of the work.
  • the plate 72 may remain down during stitching of many work pieces, tho/ugh on work towels having thicker edges, the plate 72 may be raised for clearance purposes at the fourth corner.
  • a mechanism for enabling successive labels L to be positioned and presented for securing to the margin of the work W as it is being finished will next be described largely with reference to FIGS. 4-7 inclusive.
  • a back portion of the plate 72 is formed with an upstanding guide cam 100 extending adjacent to, and ahead of, the needle 18 and parallel with the rectilinear line of work feed.
  • the cam 100 controls in part the heightwise position of a follower roll 102 carried by the piston rod 104 of a cylinder 106.
  • This cylinder as shown in FIG. 4 has one end pivoted at 108 to a bracket 110 connected to the frame 26, the other end of the cylinder 106 being pivotally suspended from a pin 112 slidable within a longitudinal slot of a piston rod 114 of a cylinder 116.
  • the cylinder 116 is itself pivotally carried at its upper end by an arm 118 affixed to the bracket 110.
  • the work-confining plate 72 is formed to provide, parallel with the cam 100, a horizontal label-receiving pocket 120, a ramp 122 inclined downwardly therefrom, and a lower release level 124 where the label, as indicated in FIG. 6, is partly on the work W and immediately above the feed dog mechanism 20.
  • a leading edge of the label L is closely adjacent to the operating path of the needle 18 as shown in.
  • FIG. 6 After it has been manually placed in the pocket 120, usually just before starting an operating cycle, means is provided for automatically advancing each label L successively therefrom, down the ramp 122 and onto the release level 124.
  • a bent finger 126 connected to the piston rod 104 is provided for cyclically presenting each label to theneedle and feed dog mechanism. As indicated in FIG. 7 the arrangement is such that fluid pressure admitted to the cylinders 106, 116 urges the roll 102 leftward along with the finger 126 causing the latter frictionally to engage and slide the label L down the ramp 122 and onto the level 124 whence the machine 10 advances the label beneath the needle to secure the label in aligned relation with the trimmed and finished margin.
  • An operators hand supplying the labels is at no time endangered in reloading the pocket 120.
  • a corner counting mechanism not herein shown but of the type described for instance in the aforesaid Kitchener et al application, is effective to actuate sewing-off" mechanism next to be described.

  • the kickout and thread cut-ofi mechanism is signaled to operate by actuation of the just-described sew-off mechanism.
  • a switch actuating roller 134 (FIG. 8) is engaged by a cam 136 secured on the rod 132.
  • the work swinging finger 32 and perhaps the work spreading plate 72 have now been automatically raised from the completed work piece W. It is connected to the needle 18 by chain stitch thread T still being formed by the machine 10 and this thread must be severed prior to work removal.
