- the grip body 1261 since the grip body 1261 is closed, the movement of the balance does not hinder the pulling out of the needle thread, so that the needle thread can be smoothly pulled out from the wound thread, and the thread breaks. The risk can be reduced. Between,
- the rotation arm 1281 does not rotate downward when the balance shifts to the top dead point in the torque control section, that is, the rotation arm 1281 Since the needle thread motor 1286 is not pulled in the direction opposite to the direction in which the rotational force is applied, thread breakage can be detected by detecting that the rotation arm 1281 does not rotate downward, and thread breakage can also be detected. In the torque control section, the rotating arm 1281 rotates downward, so that thread breakage can be detected accurately.
- the position control section in the first position control section, the current position of the needle thread motor 1286 is detected, and the position is controlled so as to pull out the needle thread corresponding to the required amount of needle thread after correction. Since the data is created and the position of the needle thread motor 1286 is controlled according to the first angle correspondence data, the needle thread required in the torque control section of the next stitch is not insufficient.
- the amount of needle thread used is detected according to the rotation angle of the rotation arm 1281, but the length of the needle thread used in the torque control section may be detected by another method.
- a mechanism for detecting the length through which the needle thread passes may be provided on the downstream side of the downstream side grip portion 1260 (particularly, the grip portion main body 1261) in the needle thread path.
- the mechanism a configuration including a pulley that rotates with the transfer of the needle thread and an encoder that detects the rotation angle of the pulley can be considered.
- the sewing machine 1 is a sewing machine for embroidery, but it may be a sewing machine other than the sewing machine for embroidery (that is, a sewing machine for sewing).
- the balance is in a state where the upstream grip portion main body is in the closed state and the downstream side grip portion main body is in the open state.
- Torque control is performed to apply a rotational force to the rotary arm by controlling the needle thread motor according to the torque value of the torque data so that tension is applied to the needle thread against the direction in which the needle thread is pulled.
- the needle thread motor is in a state where the upstream grip portion main body is in the open state and the downstream grip portion main body is in the closed state.
- Torque control by controlling the position of the needle thread motor so that the required needle thread amount in the corrected required needle thread amount data rotates by an angle corresponding to the required needle thread amount in the stitch of the torque control section that has arrived most recently.
- the first position control for pulling out the needle thread from the upstream is performed by rotating the rotary arm in the same direction as the direction in which the rotary force is applied to the rotary arm in the section, and at least one of the sections other than the torque control section.
- the needle thread motor In the second position control section, which is a section after the first position control section, the needle thread motor is in a state where the upstream grip portion main body is in the closed state and the downstream grip portion main body is in the open state.
- the second position control is performed to control the position of the needle thread motor so that the angle of the needle thread motor returns to the initial position in the angle of the needle thread motor which is the position in the rotation direction of.
- the length or torque of the needle thread used in the torque control section for the target stitch or a plurality of stitches including the target stitch which is one stitch sequentially specified in the stitches in the sewing data.
- the required needle thread amount is used by comparing the used needle thread amount, which indicates the needle thread length specified from the rotation angle of the needle thread motor in the control section, with the required needle thread amount in the required needle thread amount data before correction. If it is larger than the thread amount, a correction is made to increase the required needle thread amount in the corrected required needle thread amount data after the next stitch of the target stitch, while the required needle thread amount is larger than the used thread amount. If it is small, a correction is performed to reduce the required needle thread amount in the corrected required needle thread amount data after the next stitch of the target stitch.
- the balance between the amount of needle thread used and the amount of bobbin thread used can be a desired balance, and the balance between the amount of needle thread used and the amount of bobbin thread used. Can obtain a stable sewing finish. Further, even when the bobbin case for bobbin thread uses the conventional configuration using the bobbin case to which the thread tension spring is attached, the balance between the amount of needle thread used and the amount of bobbin thread used should be the desired balance. Therefore, it is possible to submit a sewing machine (that is, a sewing machine capable of achieving a desired balance between the amount of needle thread used and the amount of bobbin thread used) at low cost.
- the first angle maintenance section for maintaining the angle of the rotating arm 1281 is set from the end point of the control section to the start point of the thread drawing section, and the angle of the rotating arm 1281 is maintained from the end point of the initial position movement section to the start point of the torque control section. It may be a second angle maintenance section.
- the upstream grip portion 1240 is opened from closed, and the downstream grip portion 1260 is closed from open to any position from the end point of the torque control section to the start point of the thread drawing section.
- sewing data is a superordinate concept of "embroidery data”, and it can be said that embroidery data is included in sewing data.
- the Y1-Y2 direction is a direction perpendicular to the X1-X2 direction
- the Z1-Z2 direction is a direction perpendicular to the X1-X2 direction and the Y1-Y2 direction.
