The ribbon is advanced by a peg wheel, with an intermittent drive. The ribbon guide (25) is a swing lever, with a magnet (27) at its free end, to hold the lever in the closed position at a ferromagnetic limit stop (37). When the lever is open, the ribbon can be moved easily into the machine without a shaft (17) rotation. In operation, the ribbon is advanced in steps to bring each sequin opening into position in front of the needle (11) for the needle to penetrate through and the sequin is detached (31) from the ribbon by a beating plate. On a blockage, the swing lever is moved away from the peg wheel.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung für Stickmaschinen, insbesondere Schifflistickmaschinen, zum Ansticken von Pailletten oder dergleichen, die in Form eines Bandes zuführbar sind, mit einem intermittierend antreibbaren Warzenrad zum Vorschub des Bandes, einer das Warzenrad teilweise umgreifenden Führung für das Band und einer Trennvorrichtung, um jeweils eine Paillette vor dem Ansticken vom Band abzutrennen. Die Erfindung betrifft ferner eine Stickmaschine mit einer Vielzahl solcher Vorrichtungen.The present invention relates to a device for embroidery machines, in particular Schifflitickmaschinen, for embroidering sequins or The like, which can be supplied in the form of a band, with an intermittent drivable Warzenrad for advancing the tape, one the Warzenrad partially encompassing guide for the band and a separator to separate one sequin from the band before embroidering. The invention further relates to an embroidery machine having a plurality of such devices.

Vorrichtungen zum Ansticken von Verzierungsmaterialien gibt es schon seit rund hundert Jahren. So beschreibt beispielsweise die DE 174 086 das Aufnähen von sogenannten Flittern oder Schuppen auf Stoffe, wobei der Nadel die Flitter, auch Pailletten genannt, aus einem rohrförmigen Behälter einzeln zugeführt werden. Die Nadel sticht dabei durch ein in jeder Flitter vorgesehenes Loch und befestigt sie so auf den Stoff.Devices for embroidering decorative materials have been around for a long time a hundred years. For example, DE 174 086 describes the sewing of so-called flitter or scales on fabrics, the needle being the baubles, too Sequin called to be fed from a tubular container individually. The needle pierces through a provided in each bauble hole and attached she so on the fabric.

In neueren Vorrichtungen wird das Verzierungsmaterial in Form eines Bandes zugeführt. So zeigt die WO 9300468 ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Ausführen von Stickereien mit Perlen, bei der ein Perlenband zugeführt und vor dem Ansticken jeweils eine Perle vom Band abgeschnitten wird. Entsprechende Vorrichtungen zum Ansticken von Pailletten oder dergleichen werden durch die US 3,390,650 und US 5,562,057 beschrieben. Bei diesen bekannten Vorrichtungen wird das Band von über den Nadelstösseln angeordneten Bandspulen über ein Förderband, z.B. ein Warzenrad, der Nadel zugeführt. Zum Einführen des Bandes kann eine Führung in Form eines Schwenkhebels oder Blattfeder entgegen der Federkraft vorn verschwenkt werden. Im Betrieb der Vorrichtung steht die Führung mit der Hinterseite des Bandes in Kontakt, d.h. mit derjenigen Seite, die nach dem Ansticken der Paillette auf dem Stoff aufliegt.In newer devices, the decorating material is in the form of a ribbon fed. Thus, WO 9300468 shows a method and an apparatus for Perform embroidery with beads, in which a beaded tape is fed in and out the embroidery is cut off a bead from the band. Appropriate Devices for embroidering sequins or the like are characterized by US 3,390,650 and US 5,562,057. In these known devices The tape is about of the needle tappets arranged on a tape reels Conveyor belt, e.g. a worm gear, fed to the needle. To insert the tape can be a guide in the form of a pivot lever or leaf spring against the Spring force can be pivoted forward. In the operation of the device is the Guide in contact with the back of the tape, i. with the side that rests on the fabric after embroidering the sequin.

Als Nachteil dieser Vorrichtungen erweist sich der grosse Umschlingungswinkel. Wenn die Teilgenauigkeit, d.h. der Abstand von Paillette zu Paillette ungenau ist, kann das Band nicht richtig erfasst und werden und kann sich verklemmen. Nachteilig ist auch der relativ lange und für eine Inspektion unzulängliche Führungskanal. Dadurch wird die Gefahr, dass das Band geknickt wird, erhöht. Ein langer Kanal verursacht nicht nur eine grössere Reibung, sondern ist auch anfälliger für eine Verstopfung durch Rückstände und Schmutz. Bei einem Verklemmen des Bandes besteht die Gefahr eines Nadelbruchs und einer Beschädigung der Vorrichtung. Als nachteilig hat sich auch das komplizierte Einführen des Paillettenbandes erwiesen. Dieses muss zwischen Warzenrad und Führung eingeführt und dann durch Drehen des Warzenrades zur Trennvorrichtung gefördert werden. Dies erweist sich als besonders umständlich, weil bei einer Stickmaschine eine Vielzahl von Paillettenbändern eingelegt werden muss.The disadvantage of these devices is the large wrap angle. If the part accuracy, i. the distance from sequin to sequin is inaccurate, The tape can not be picked up properly and can jam. Another disadvantage is the relatively long and inadequate for an inspection Guide channel. This increases the risk of the belt kinking. A long channel not only causes greater friction, it is also more susceptible to clogging by residues and dirt. At a Jamming of the tape is a risk of needle breakage and a Damage to the device. The disadvantage is also the complicated Introduce the sequin tape proved. This must be between Warzenrad and Guide introduced and then by turning the Warzenrades to Separator be promoted. This proves to be particularly cumbersome because in an embroidery machine a variety of sequin bands are inserted got to.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs erwähnten Gattung zu schaffen, welche das Einführen des Paillettenbandes erleichtert und die Gefahr eines Verklemmens des Paillettenbandes, eines Nadelbruchs und einer Beschädigung der Vorrichtung praktisch ausschliesst.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a device of the initially mentioned genus, which introducing the sequin tape relieved and the risk of jamming the sequin tape, one Needle breakage and damage to the device practically excludes.

Erfindungsgemäss wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass die Führung von der Vorderseite des Bandes und vom Warzenrad weg beweglich ausgestaltet ist und dass ein Kraftelement vorgesehen ist, welches die Führung im Betrieb der Vorrichtung in Führungslage hält, aber beim Auftreten einer vorbestimmten Gegenkraft unwirksam wird, so dass die Führung vom Warzenrad abgehoben wird. Im Gegensatz zum bekannten Stand der Technik steht bei dieser Vorrichtung die Führung im Betrieb nicht mit der Hinterseite, sondern mit der Vorderseite des Bandes in Kontakt, also der Seite, an welcher beim Ansticken die Nadel in das Loch der jeweiligen Paillette eindringt.According to the invention this is achieved in that the leadership of the Front side of the band and is designed to move away from the Warzenrad and that a force element is provided, which guides the operation of the Device in guiding position holds, but when a predetermined Counteracting force is ineffective, so that the guide lifted from the Warzenrad becomes. In contrast to the known state of the art is in this Device the leadership in the operation not with the back, but with the Front of the band in contact, so the side at which when embroidering the Needle penetrates into the hole of the respective sequin.

Diese Vorrichtung ermöglicht es, das Band von vorn einzuführen, indem vor dem Einführen des Bandes die Führung vom Warzenrad abgehoben wird. Nach dem Einführen des Bandes wird aber die Führung durch das Kraftelement in der Führungslage gehalten. Sollte sich im Betrieb das Band verklemmen, so wird die Führung vom Band abgehoben, was auch zur Folge hat, dass das Warzenrad das Band nicht mehr fördert. Dadurch wird eine Beschädigung der Vorrichtung und der Nadel verhindert. Ferner kann durch das Abheben der Führung eine Alarmvorrichtung betätigt werden.This device makes it possible to insert the tape from the front, before the Inserting the band, the guide is lifted off the worm wheel. After this Insertion of the band will be but the leadership of the force element in the Management position held. If the tape jams during operation, the Leadership lifted off the belt, which also has the consequence that the Warzenrad the No longer supports the band. This will damage the device and prevents the needle. Furthermore, by lifting the guide a Alarm device are actuated.

Zweckmässigerweise ist ein Anschlag vorgesehen, an welchem die Führung in der Führungslage anschlägt. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass die Führung durch das Kraftelement gegen das Band gedrückt wird.Conveniently, a stop is provided on which the guide in the Management position strikes. This will prevent the guide from passing through Force element is pressed against the belt.

Vorteilhaft ist die Führung als Schwenkhebel ausgebildet. Dies ermöglicht ein bequemes Verschwenken der Führung zum Einführen des Bandes. Vorteilhaft ist der Schwenkhebel unterhalb des Warzenrades verschwenkbar gelagert. Dies ermöglicht eine einfache Konstruktion und der Umschlingungswinkel kann klein gehalten werden. Als Kraftelement kann ein Magnet dienen. Die Verwendung eines Magneten hat den Vorteil, dass die Führung nur in der Führungslage mit einer relativ grossen Kraft festgehalten wird. Bei einem Verklemmen des Bandes wird daher die Führung vom Warzenrad abgehoben und verbleibt in der abgehobenen Lage. Zweckmässigerweise ist der Magnet durch eine Schraube verstellbar am freien Ende des Schwenkhebels angeordnet. Durch Verdrehen der Schraube kann der Spalt zwischen dem Warzenrad und der Führung eingestellt werden. Advantageously, the guide is designed as a pivot lever. This allows a convenient pivoting of the guide for inserting the tape. Is advantageous the pivot lever mounted pivotally below the Warzenrades. This allows a simple construction and the wrap angle can be small being held. As a force element can serve a magnet. The usage a magnet has the advantage that the guide only in the guiding position with a relatively large force is held. When jamming the tape Therefore, the guide is lifted from the Warzenrad and remains in the off-hook position. Conveniently, the magnet is by a screw adjustably arranged at the free end of the pivot lever. By twisting the Screw can adjust the gap between the worm wheel and the guide become.

Zweckmässigerweise wird eine stationäre Führung in Förderrichtung des Bandes dem Warzenrad nachgeschaltet, um das Band der Trennvorrichtung zuzuführen.Conveniently, a stationary guide in the conveying direction of the tape the Warzenrad downstream to supply the band of the separator.

Die Erfindung betrifft auch eine Stickmaschine mit einer Vielzahl von Vorrichtungen der beschriebenen Art, wobei die Warzenräder auf einer gemeinsamen Welle angeordnet sind, welche an ein von der Maschinensteuerung steuerbares Antriebsorgan, zum Beispiel einen Servomotor, gekoppelt ist. Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, den Antrieb der Welle in der Mitte vorzunehmen, so dass die Torsion der Welle klein gehalten werden kann.The invention also relates to an embroidery machine with a plurality of Devices of the type described, wherein the Warzenräder on a common shaft, which are connected to one of the machine control controllable drive member, for example a servomotor, is coupled. there it is advantageous to make the drive of the shaft in the middle, so that the Torsion of the shaft can be kept small.

Es gibt verschiedene Möglichkeiten, die Trennvorrichtung zu gestalten. Vorteilhaft weist die Trennvorrichtung eine stationäre Abschlagkante und eine bewegliche Schlagplatte auf, wobei die bewegliche Schlagplatte durch den Nadelstössel betätigbar ist. Die Schlagplatte kann auch am Nadelstössel angeordnet sein. Dies ergibt eine besonders einfache und kostengünstige Konstruktion.There are several ways to design the separator. Advantageous the separation device has a stationary knock-off edge and a movable one Impact plate on, with the movable impact plate through the needle plunger is operable. The striking plate can also be arranged on the needle plunger. This results in a particularly simple and inexpensive construction.

Wie aus den Figuren 3 und 4 ersichtlich ist, wird bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel das jeweilige Warzenrad 19 durch die Hohlwelle 17 gebildet, in welcher Stifte 33 eingelassen sind, welche die Warzen 33 bilden. As is apparent from Figures 3 and 4, in this embodiment, the respective cam 19 formed by the hollow shaft 17, in which pins 33 embedded are the warts 33 form.

Die bewegliche Führung 25 ist als Schwenkhebel ausgebildet, welcher mittels eines Stifts 35 unterhalb des Warzenrads 19 verschwenkbar gelagert ist. Eine Stange 37 aus ferromagnetischem Material dient als Anschlag für den Schwenkhebel 25 in der in Figur 4 gezeigten Führungslage.The movable guide 25 is designed as a pivot lever, which by means of a pin 35 is mounted pivotably below the Warzenrads 19. A rod 37 off ferromagnetic material serves as a stop for the pivot lever 25 in the in Figure 4 shown management position.

Als Kraftelement 27 kann ein Magnet dienen, der mittels einer Schraube 39 am freien Ende des Schwenkhebels 25 verstellbar angeordnet ist. Es wäre aber auch möglich, den Magneten 27 an der Stange 37 anzuordnen, in welchem Fall die Führung 25 aus ferromagnetischem Material besteht.As a force element 27 may serve a magnet which by means of a screw 39 at the free End of the pivot lever 25 is arranged adjustable. It would also be possible, the Magnets 27 to be arranged on the rod 37, in which case the guide 25 from ferromagnetic material.

Dem Warzenrad 19 ist in Förderrichtung des Bandes 15 eine stationäre Führung 41 nachgeschaltet, um das Band 15 der Nadel 11 bzw. der Trennvorrichtung 31 zuzuführen.The Warzenrad 19 is in the conveying direction of the belt 15, a stationary guide 41st downstream to supply the tape 15 to the needle 11 and the separator 31, respectively.

Wie Fig. 5 zeigt, besteht die Trennvorrichtung 31 beispielsweise aus der stationären Abschlagkante 43 und der beweglichen Schlagplatte 45, die am Nadelstössel 47 angeordnet ist.As shown in FIG. 5, the separation device 31 consists for example of the stationary Abschlagkante 43 and the movable striking plate 45, the needle ram 47 is arranged.

Es ist aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich, dass bei der beschriebenen Vorrichtung das Paillettenband 15 mit Leichtigkeit von vom eingeführt werden kann, wenn sich der Schwenkhebel 25 in der geöffneten Lage befindet. Beim Schliessen des Schwenkhebels 25 liegt dieser an der Vorderseite des Paillettenbandes 15 an, also an der Seite, an welcher die Nadel 11 beim Ansticken in das Loch 16 der Paillette 13 eindringt.It can be seen from Fig. 3 that in the described device, the sequin tape 15th can be introduced with ease of from when the pivot lever 25 in the opened position.
