Definitions

  • the severing device includes a thread catcher movable between the thread carrying looper blade and the stitching plate for catching the thread and drawing the thread into clamping engagement with clamping means and into cutting engagement with cutting means whereby the looper thread is cut and clamped at a predetermined point and whereby the needle thread may be cut and released at said point.
  • the cutting and clamping means may be movable to and retractible from the predetermined point and control provisions are disclosed for controlling the operation of the severing device and for drawing off a predetermined amount of looper and needle thread upon actuation of the severing device such that a new sewing operation may be begun.
  • the invention concerns a thread severing device embodied in double chain stitch sewing machines, wherein the needle thread loop lies around the blade of the thread carrying looper when the needle is in high position.
  • the present invention serves the purpose of cutting off the threads on double chain stitch sewing machines wherein the loop of the needle thread in the high position of the needle lies around the blade of the thread carrying looper, whenever the seam ends in the material being sewn, and is based on the problem of creating a thread severing device by which the threads can be cut off closely below the material and be held in a manner, which assures that a faultless formation of the stitch will be guaranteed upon restarting of the sewing machine.
  • a thread seizing device or thread catcher which moves between the looper blade and the stitching plate, and will cooperate with a cutting blade and a fiat Elamping spring or spring clip, and whose seizing beak or catcher hook moves on a course in relation to the looper being in its foremost end position, said course extending within the area of the looper point, across the looper blade and from there through the path of the needle up to a point on that side of the path of the needle which faces away from the looper.
  • the thread catcher moves preferably between the cutting blade and the clamping spring or clip and has a cutting edge which corresponds to the edge of the cutting blade.
  • the clamping spring or clip presses the catcher hook against the cutting blade and serves, at the same time, for clamping the threads against the thread catcher, whereby at least the severed looper thread extending to the eye of the looper is retained by the clip spring in the end position of the catcher hook.
  • the cutting blade and the spring clip are movable in relation to the thread catcher, in such a manner that the shearing effect of the cutting edges takes place a predetermined distance from the path of the needle and the end position of the cutting edges with the cutting edges spaced from the upper edge of the stitch hole at a distance approximately twice the length of the stitch.
  • thread severing device or thread catcher consists in providing one catcher hook or seizing beak each for the needle thread and the looper thread, preferably on one common thread catcher. Through this arrangement it becomes possible to draw out the threads individually, to cut them off and to clamp them.
  • the catcher hook for the needle thread has been displaced in the direction of movement of the hooks, in such a manner in relation to the catcher hook for the looper thread that in its pushed out or projected position it will extend between the looper thread and the needle thread.
  • the novel arrangement is such that only the catcher hook or seizing beak for the looper thread cooperates with the clamping spring or clip, in order to clamp the looper thread in the rest position of the catcher hook.
  • a preferred embodiment of the cutting-off device is characterized by the fact that the spring clip is equipped with a notch, the edge of which is spaced from the free end of the spring clip at a distance that is smaller than the clamping surfaces of the catcher hooks.
  • catcher hooks are displaced laterally in relation to one another in their direction of movement and in that the spring clip covers only the course of movement of the catcher hook for the looper thread, or else in that that surface of the catcher hook which faces-the spring clip and which is intended for the needle thread recedes in relation to the remaining surface of the catcher hook, or in that the catcher hook for the needle thread has an edge to break the needle thread.
  • FIGURE 1 is a front elevation, parts being broken away, showing a double chain stitch sewing machine embodying the invention.
  • FIGURE 2 shows a part of the opened machine bed viewed from above.
  • FIGURE 3 is a perspective view schematically illustrating one form of thread cutting device embodying the invention, the same being shown in the swung-in or projected condition.
  • FIGURE 4 shows the thread cutting device in the retracted position.
  • FIGURE 5 is an enlarged sectional view showing the end of the seam with threads cut off and protruding a considerable distance from the fabric.
  • FIGURE 5 is a view similar to FIGURE 5 with the dangling needle thread pulled in toward the preceding needle thread loop.
  • FIGURE 6 is a circuit diagram.
  • FIGURES 7 and 8 are views similar to FIGURES 3 and 4 and showing similar positions of a modified form of the invention.
  • the sewing machine has a customary housing 1, in which a needle bar 2 carrying a needle 3 is guided.
  • the needle bar and needle are driven in the known manner and the needle operates together with a thread carrying double chain stitch looper 4.
  • the drive of the machine takes place via a belt pulley 5, which is connected with a known type of transmitter, not shown, which puts the needle into high position in the stopping position.
  • the needle thread 6 and the looper thread 7 are moved via tension discs 8, 9 and the customary thread guiding parts to the needle 3 and the looper 4.
  • a spreader 10 cooperates in the well known manner with the needle 3 and looper 4 in the formation of stitches, the spreader serving to widen out the thread triangles during sewing, opposite to the normal sewing direction.
  • thread draw-off parts 11, 12 have been provided which, preferably, have been adjustably secured to a shiftable plate 13. These thread drawing-off parts, furthermore, carry disc spacers 14, 15, which are engageable between the tension discs 8 and 9 for deactivating the same.
  • An actuating electromagnet 16 is provided for bringing about desired shifting of the plate 13 which magnet operates a bar 17 via a lever 18 engaging in a slot 19 of the plate 13, as shown in FIGURE 1.
  • the actuating magnet 16 also serves in the operation of the device for severing the threads via moving means including a draw bar 21.
  • the draw bar 21 is connected with a lever 22 which can be swung about an axis 23 and which carries a thread catcher 24.
  • the thread catcher 24 operates together with a cutting blade 26 and aclamiping spring or clip 27 and is guided between these parts.
  • the cutting blade 26 and the spring clip 27 are movable relative to the thread severing device or thread catcher 24 and, for this purpose, they have been secured to a carrier 25 that can be swung about the swinging axis 23.
  • the carrier 25 is connected with an anchored tension spring 28 and has a stop 29 which is engageable with a stop portion of the support means 31 for the cutting device.
  • the thread cutting device is in the starting position.
  • the thread seizing beak or thread catcher 24 lies against the carrier 25 of the cutting blade 26 and against the clamping spring or clip 27, and has swung back the carrier 25 from the position shown in FIGURE 2 and against the pull of the spring 28. If the magnet is now switched on, the thread severing device will swing to position shown in FIGURE 3.
  • the thread catcher 24 will be disposed with its seizing beak or catcher hook 32 above the looper blade approximately within the area of the looper point when the magnet 16 has been energized.
  • the carrier 25 will have followed the thread catcher 24 under the influence of the spring 28, until the stop 29 abuts against the support 31.
  • the thread draw-off parts 11, 12 will have seized the needle thread 6 and the looper thread 7 and drawn them off by a predetermined length.
  • the tension disk spacers 14, 15 will have moved in simultaneously between the tension discs and have released the thread tension, in order to facilitate the drawing off of the threads.
  • the thread catcher 24 swings back through the path of the needle up to a point which lies on that side of the path of the needle which faces away from the looper (FIGURE 4).
  • the seizing beak or catcher hook 32 of the thread catcher will seize the strand 35 of the looper thread 7 guided from the looper eye 34 to the last stitch, as well as that strand 36 of the needle thread 6 extending from the looper blade to the last stitch.
  • the catcher hook reaches the clamping spring or clip 27 it claimps both strands thereagainst and then cuts them off immediately afterwards against the cutting edge 33 of the cutting blade.
  • the thread catcher 24 After the catcher hook 32 has been retracted into position between the cutting blade 26 and the clamping spring or clip 27, the thread catcher 24 again engages against the carrier 25, and on its path into its end position, it will move said carrier with it against the retractile force of the spring 28.
  • the thread draw-oft parts 11, 12 likewise move back into position for releasing the necessary quantity of thread which is required to draw out the threads during swinging back of the thread severing device into its end position.
  • the disc spacers 14, 15 retract from between the tension discs 8, 9, whereupon said discs will again act on the threads 6, 7 and clamp the same.
  • enough needle thread is drawn oif so that the latter will be released by the clamping spring or clip 27 just prior to the thread severing device reaching its end position.
  • enough looper thread will be drawn off so that it will remain held by the clamping spring or clip 27 in its end position.
  • the looper thread will be held tensed in its position on that side of the path of the needle which faces away from the looper.
  • the needle will enter between the looper blade and the clamped in strand of the looper thread when the machine starts Operating again, so that the looper thread upon the return of the looper places itself around the needle.
  • a faultless stitch formation will be insured.
  • the looper thread will remain clamped in and will finally be drawn off from the spring clip 27 by the advance of the material through the machine.
  • the threads are cut olf approximately at a length as shown in FIGURE 5 so that the needle thread 6 and the looper thread 7 protrude by about a double stitch length from the bottom side of the material.
  • an automatic unraveling of the seam has been prevented, since the needle thread will prevent a sliding back of the loop of the looper thread through the preceding loop of the needle thread.
  • the drawing olf of looper thread 7 will be adjusted in such a manner, that the looper thread 7 will draw the suspended end of the needle thread 6 toward the preceding needle thread loop and will clamp it there, as a result of which an increased security is oifered against unraveling of the seam.
  • the control circuit seen in FIGURE 6, is provided in order to prevent the magnet 16 from being switched on for the operation of the thread severing device during the sewing, a relay 41 has been provided, which obtains current only when the sewing machine operates and which opens a switch 42 in the circuit leading to the magnet 16. In this manner the circuit to the magnet will be interrupted when the machine is running and it will not be possible to switch in the magnet 16. If the machine stops, the relay 41 will be deactivated and the switch 42 closes the contacts in the circuit of the magnet 16.
  • an additional switch 43 which can be manually operated at will, which preferably is arranged on the treadle controlling the transmitter. The switch 43 will be closed, for example, whenever the treadle is moved opposite to the transmitter engaging position.
  • an additional switch 44 will be provided in the circuit to the magnet 16, which, controlled by the transmitter, will open when the needle is at its lower point and will close when the needle is in high position.
  • an automatic holding relay 45 In order to deenergize the magnet after switching on, and in order to avoid a repeated switching on, an automatic holding relay 45 has been provided.
  • a switch 46 which closes the control circuit when the relay 41 is energized.
  • the relay 45 is activated and closes a holding circuit via the holding contacts 47, in which a switch 48 has been arranged.
  • the automatic holding relay 45 will bridge contacts in the circuit of the magnet 16 with a switch 49.
  • the switch 42 is closed and the switch 46 is opened.
  • the automatic holding relay 45 remains energized via its holding circuit, so that the switch 49 also remains closed. Assuming that the needle is in its high position and the switch 44 is likewise closed, then the only break in the circuit to the magnet 16 will be the switch 43. If this switch 43 is now closed, the magnet will be energized and will initiate the cutting process.
  • the switch 49 is opened and the circuit of the magnet 16 is interrupted, as a result of which the magnet 16 is deenergized. It will be apparent that with this the switch 48 in the holding circuit of the relay 45 is again closed, since however the switch 47 remains open and the switch 46 does not close, before the sewing machine starts to operate again, the switch 49 also remains open. A renewed closing of the switch 43, therefore, remains without effect.
  • the magnet 16 can be switched on again only through the switch 43, after the machine has again sewn and after the automatic holding relay 45 has been energized via the relay 41. This insurance against repeated cutting is necessary in order to assure that the clamping spring or clip 27 will not release the looper thread before at least one stitch has been sewn.
  • the thread catcher 24 carries two thread seizing beaks or catcher hooks 52 and 53, both of which coact with the cutting blade 26*.
  • the spring clip 27 has a notch 54 formed therein (FIGURE 8). If the thread catcher 24 is swung in (FIGURE 7), then the catcher hook 52 will move beyond the strand of the looper thread 7 in the direction of the looper point 4*, while the hook 53 is in a swung in position between the loop of the needle thread 6 hanging on the looper and the strand of the looper thread 7 leading to the last stitch.
  • the hook 52 will grasp the looper thread, while the hook 53 will seize the strand of the needle thread loop running from the looper blade to the last stitch. Both threads will thus be cut off against the cutting blade 26 but only the looper thread 7 will be clamped in between the catcher hook 52 and the clamping spring or clip 27
  • the catcher hook 53 in the end or starting position, is in the area of the notch 54 of the spring clip 27 as a result of which the needle thread is released, or in other words, will not be clamped.
  • the clamping of the needle thread can be avoided in that the catcher hook 53 is formed with a recess at the bottom side as compared to the catcher hook 52 and thus, in the end or starting position is disposed at a distance from the spring clip 27, or in that the catcher hook 53 is formed with a cutting blade on which the needle thread will be broken, before the catcher hook 53 reaches the spring clip 27.
  • the catcher hook 53 may be arranged on the spring clip 27.
  • the clamping spring or clip 27 together with the thread catcher 24 swings into position in which the catcher hook 53 will be between the needle thread loop and the looper thread.
  • the thread catcher 24 of the spring clip 27 will be in advance and clamp the looper thread 7 between the catcher hook 52 and the catcher hook 53, which is located on the spring clip, whereupon both elements will swing back together and both threads 6*, 7 will be cut ofi against the cutting blade 26*".
