Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for actuating a thread cutting and thread clamping device according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and an actuating member for a device for carrying out the method according to patent claim 4.
  • Thread cutting devices for large embroidery machines have been known for many years, which are assigned to each individual embroidery location and which, controlled by the program, can cut individual or a plurality of selected shuttle threads between the shuttle and the embroidery material.
  • Such a thread cutting device is for example from the EP 0 638 682 B1 known.
  • a shuttle embroidery machine with a driver bar unit is also known, with which the independent shutdown of each individual shuttle is made possible.
  • a shuttle prevents the cut thread end on the shutdown shuttle from being destroyed by the rapid up and down movement of the shuttle, or even literally being crushed, and consequently a safe stitching is no longer guaranteed.
  • a pneumatic piston-cylinder unit is provided, with which the lower driver nail in the driver bar can be extended from the area of the boat train via an angle lever. The shuttle located in the respective shuttle track slides down slightly after the driver nail has been pulled out and is held in this position.
  • the pneumatic nail unit is used to guide the driver nail back into the shuttle train and to slightly raise the shuttle again when it is inserted. Thanks to this stopping of the shuttle, the shuttle thread leading away from the shuttle of an unneeded shuttle is not destroyed during embroidery.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a method and a device which make it possible to cut the shuttle thread between the needle plate and the embroidery base with the embroidery close to the embroidery base. Another task is to cut the thread end between the shuttle and hold the embroidery base temporarily until the stopped embroidery site is put back into operation.
  • the thread held in the clamping device is ready to be sewn on at any time.
  • the construction of the device can also be produced very inexpensively, since a switchover drive for a large number, for example for 48 embroidery sites, can be combined for switching on the thread cutting and thread clamping device.
  • a single drive makes it possible to actuate the thread cutting and thread clamping arrangement at, for example, 48 or more locations.
  • the control of the drive for cutting and clamping is simplified and, in addition, far less space is required and the area of the individual embroidery points on the shuttle side is therefore less obstructed.
  • a driver bar 1 with an upper driver nail 3 and a lower driver nail 5 extending over the entire length of an embroidery machine with a plurality of embroidery positions is visible on the left side.
  • the two driver nails 3 and 5 are spaced apart from a tap hole plate 7 with a tap hole 72 and protrude with their end regions 3 'and 5' into a shuttle track 9 of a stick 48.
  • the Driver bar 1 is designed to be movable in an oscillating manner according to arrow P, essentially in the vertical direction, for example inclined 15 ° from the vertical, by known drive means, not shown.
  • the lower driver nail 5 arranged there can be moved in the figures in the horizontal direction according to arrow Z and pulled out of the boat track 9 (position according to Fig. 2 ).
  • the boat 11 is then no longer set in motion by the driver bar 1, since the lower driver nail 5 no longer contacts the boat 11 when it is started up.
  • the lower driver nail 5 is inserted and the boat 11 between the two driver nails 3 and 5 in the Figure 1 held invisible game.
  • the lower driver nail 5 is in the retracted position, so that the shuttle 11 slides down a little and is held there in the lowered position in the shuttle track 9.
  • the lower driver nail 5 is pulled back, for example, by an angle lever 13 which is supported on its elbow 15 so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis B.
  • the shorter arm 17 of the angle lever 13 is in engagement with the end of the piston rod 19 of a piston 23 which is displaceable in a cylinder 21.
  • the piston 23 can be actuated by a fluid, for example compressed air, which flows through a valve 25 into the lower one Cylinder space is inserted, can be moved upward against the force of a spring 27 (as in Figures 1 and 2 ) Shown.
  • the longer arm 29 of the angle lever 13 is somewhat spaced on the right side of a radially protruding finger 31 attached to the lower driver nail 5.
  • the piston 23 with the piston rod 19 is guided downward by the spring 27 and the angle lever 13 thereby pivots counterclockwise and pulls the lower driver nail 5 out of the area of the shuttle track 9 into the position as shown in FIG Figure 2 is shown.
  • the angle lever 13 can be pivoted back into the starting position after pulling back the driver nail 5 and lifting the driver bar 1.
  • the shuttle 11 can no longer be moved upward in the shuttle track 9 despite the oscillating movement of the driver bar 1 in the direction of the arrows P due to the lack of engagement of the lower driver nail 5.
  • the boat 11 is stopped.
  • driver bar 1 is shown in the raised position, in which position the angle lever 13 lies during a pivoting movement in the counterclockwise direction outside the engagement with the finger 31 on the lower driver nail 5. From this position, the driver nail 5 can also be pushed back into the shuttle track 9 after the driver bar 1 has been lowered.
  • a thread clamping and cutting device 33 is actuated in the lowest position of the shuttle 11 (cf. Fig. 4-6 . 9 ). They are driven according to Figure 4 and Figure 5 with a connecting rod 35 that can be latched onto the long arm 29 of the angle lever 13.
  • the connecting rod 35 is pivotally supported on one side on a shaft 37 on a rocker 39 for the thread clamping and cutting device 33.
  • the other free end 36 of the connecting rod 35 lies on the boom 42 of a lifting device 46.
  • the lifting device 46 extends over a plurality, for example 48, of embroidery points and makes it possible to detach the connecting rod (s) 35 at the embroidery points from a form-fitting connecting element 49 with the long arm 29 of the angle lever 13 ( Fig.
  • the connecting element 49 comprises, for example, a semicircular, one-sided open recess 50 in the connecting rod 35 on its underside and a cylindrical cam 52, which is laterally projecting from the long arm 29 (cf. also Figure 5 ).
  • the connecting rod 35 is preferably pressed onto the cam 52 or the extension arm 42 of the device 46 by means of a leg spring 69, as long as the free end 36 of the connecting rod 35 is not raised by the device 46. If the cam 52 is pushed into the recess 50 of the connecting rod 35 on the angle lever 13, the thread catching and cutting device can be used with the angle lever 13 and the connecting rod 35 33 are pivoted forward or backward about a pivot axis A formed at the lower end thereof. If the long arm 29 on the angle lever 13, as described in the introduction, is not connected to the connecting rod 35, the long arm 29 serves to push the lower driver nail 5 forward or backward. The thread cutting and thread clamping device 33 is then disengaged.
  • a knife lever 63 projects upwards.
  • the upper end of the knife lever 63 extends into the area between the two driving nails 3 and 5 (in section according to Fig. 6 Not shown).
  • the upper end of the knife lever 63 engages from below in a slot 51 on a first clamping element 47 and a second knife 43 (see Fig. 7 )
  • the cutting and clamping arrangement 75 comprises a first knife 41 made of a rectangular flat body made of metal, the rear end 70 of which is T-shaped and the front end of which has a cutting edge 53.
  • a second knife 43 is arranged adjacent to the first knife 41, the front end of which is hook-shaped and comprises a cutting edge 53 'on the rear side of the hook-shaped part.
  • the second knife 43 projects beyond the rear end 70 of the of the first knife 41 and ends in a recess 51.
  • the second knife 43 is adjoined by a second clamping element 45, the front end of which is also hook-shaped and the rear end of which, like the second knife 43, comprises a slot 51 on its underside.
  • a second clamping element 47 adjoins the second clamping element 45 at the rear and lying in parallel, which on its front side (on the right in FIG Figures 7 ) has an end edge running at right angles to the longitudinal edges and which is essentially T-shaped at its rear end 70.
  • the two knives 41, 43 and the two clamping elements 45, 47 abut each other laterally and are held in a rectangular channel 59 in the Stöckli 48 (cf. Fig. 6 ).
  • the two T-shaped end regions of the second knife 43 and the second clamping element 45 lie laterally on the Stöckli 48 and are pressed against the Stöckli 48 by the clamp holder 67.
  • the rear or rear ends 70 of the first knife 41 and the first clamping element 47 protrude beyond the stick Figure 6 on the left-hand side and are in engagement with the free end of the knife lever 63.
  • the front hook-shaped ends of the second knife 43 and the second clamping element 45 protrude beyond the stick 48 and those in Figure 6 Needle plate 7 not shown.
  • the knife lever 63 is pivoted and this pulls with its upper end the second knife 43 and the second clamping element 45 to the left and with this also the shuttle thread 68 in the direction of the needle plate 7.
  • the shuttle thread 68 which leads from the stick bottom 79 to the boat 11, is first clamped between the second clamping element 45 and the first clamping element 47.
  • the shuttle thread 68 is subsequently cut at the cutting edge 53 'on the second knife 43 and the cutting edge 53 of the first knife 41.
  • the end of the shuttle thread 68 which continues to the embroidery base 79, now protrudes freely from the embroidery base 79 as a short tail.
  • the shuttle thread 68 is only released again from the clamping as soon as this embroidery site is put into operation again and thus the shuttle 11 is again driven by the driver bar 1.
  • the thread cutting and thread clamping device 33 is now in a position as in FIG Fig. 9 shown.
  • the leaf spring 65 on the knife lever 63 ensures that the thread cutting and thread clamping arrangement 75 no longer projects above the surface of the needle plate 7 ( Fig. 9 ).
