摘要:
A lower thread drawing-out device for a computerized sewing machine, the device having a cup-shaped loop taker with a surrounding wall. The loop taker is rotatable in a timed relation with a vertical reciprocation of the needle to catch the upper thread to concatenate with the lower thread and thereby form lock stitches. A bobbin is arranged in the loop taker so as to form a space between the bobbin and the loop taker surrounding wall. A lower thread drawing out element having a free end in the space is arranged so that when a lower thread is wrapped around the bobbin and extends to a needle, the free end contacts the lower thread at a location. The lower thread drawing out element is rotatable relative to the loop taker. The lower thread is movable transversely at the contact location relative to the lower thread when extended and in response to a rotation of the element relative to the loop taker, thereby compensating for biasing of the lower thread.

A tension setting device of the sewing machine comprises an upper thread tension device on the machine frame. A selecting device for selecting a thread tension in response to a thickness of a fabric being sewn is mounted to the machine frame. An auxiliary upper thread tension device cooperating with the selecting device and actuated thereby to adjust upper thread tension in response to the thickness of the fabric is provided in the tension setting device. A lower thread adjusting device cooperates with the thread tension selecting device to adjust the lower thread in response to the thickness of the fabric being sewn.

For a hem stitching operation with a sewing machine having a needle vertically reciprocating and also laterally swingable, a hem stitching presser foot is detachably mounted to a lower end of a presser bar of the sewing machine. The presser foot includes a brush like element which confronts a needle dropping hole formed in a sole of the presser foot, a frictional contact between the needle and the brush like element is produced when the needle passes the outside of the fabric edge, without penetrating the fabric, to stitch a portion of hem stitches on the outside of the fabric edge. The brush like element may be secured to the sole of the presser foot, or alternatively to a fabric guide member for engaging and guiding the fabric edge. The brush may be projected in the fabric feeding direction or across the fabric feeding direction. A pin may be located just beneath the brush like element for constant placement thereof.

An upper thread carried by a vertically reciprocating needle is drawn from a bobbin through a tensioning device, a supply device and a take-up lever. A predetermined amount of the upper thread is first supplied by actuating the supply device, while applying no tension thereto. An additional amount of the upper thread is then supplied by operation of the take-up lever with a predetermined tension being given thereto. The additional amount is detected by a sensor. The supply device includes a one-way clutch for allowing the upper thread to travel in a predetermined direction which, however, may not be conveyed from the needle side when the supply device is made operative. A CPU controls the amount of thread first supplied by the supply device which will always be smaller than an amount actually required for producing a stitch, resulting in an additional amount to be supplied supplemental in cooperation with the tensioning device.

A zigzag sewing machine includes a needle hole member having a round needle hole of a diameter slightly larger than that of a stitching needle. The needle hole member engages a laterally elongated hole in a needle plate and is swingable along the latter. A base member is mounted coaxially with a loop taker and is rotatable relative to the loop taker. The needle hole member is pivoted to the base member for relative vertically swinging movement. A lever swingably mounted on the machine housing engages with the needle hole member, and a cam rotated in synchronism with the vertical reciprocation of the needle is in engagement with the swinging lever. A stepping motor is operatively connected to the needle to reciprocate the needle laterally in the elongated needle plate hole, and the motor is also operatively connected to the base member to reciprocate the base member.

A method of automatically adjusting thread tension in a sewing machine including detecting changes of load subjected on the needle bar caused when the needle penetrates the fabric to be sewn and adjusting the electric driving part of the thread tension device in accordance with the values of the changing components of the load.

A lower thread tension adjusting device is disclosed, which is used in combination with a sewing machine having a horizontal rotary loop taker and a stationary bobbin carrier accomodating a bobbin. A lower thread drawn from the bobbin is passed between a base plate secured to the outer face of the bobbin carrier and the free end of a resilient plate having one end secured to the base plate, so that by manipulation of an adjusting screw a variable degree of tension can be applied to the lower thread. The device is so designed that when an index provided on the adjusting screw is in alignment with a reference mark of the base plate, the lower thread will be given a predetermined standard value of tension.

A lock stitching and overlock stitching machine has a primary driving means, a lock stitching device including a drive shaft, an overlock stitching device including a separate drive shaft and being spaced apart from the lock stitching device, the drive shafts of respective stitching devices being coupled to the primary driving means by a clutch means which is operable to rotate the drive shaft of the lock-stitching device in one direction relative to the user and the drive shaft of the overlock-stitching device in an opposite direction relative to the user.
摘要:
An automatic thread tensioning device for positioning the crossing points of upper and lower threads in the center of thickness of a fabric undergoing stitching. The positioning is effected by making calculations based on measured results of thread tension, without needing to detect the various kinds of characteristics of fabrics, threads, or lower thread tension responding to an existing type of stitching condition. The proper upper thread tension may be determined for the stitching conditions of fabrics which have different characteristics and for stitching conditions of fabrics which have conventionally been difficult to deal with, simply by pressing buttons and making test stitchings. If an upper thread tensioning device has a motor, a stitching operation may be made more easily.

A device for guiding a lower thread in a zigzag stitching sewing machine is provided with a lower thread guiding unit that determines two lower thread drawing positions in accordance with a selected pattern. The lower thread guiding unit includes a lower thread guiding part which, at one of the two positions, acts on the lower thread to guide a lower thread drawing position to a center of a needle amplitude. A lower thread releasing element, at the other of the two positions, cooperates with the lower thread guiding unit to release the lower thread engaged with the lower thread guiding part.
