ATTORNEYS United States Patent 3,424,115 CUT-OFF DEVICE FOR THE THREADS OF DOUBLE CHAIN STITCH SEWING MACHINE Dieter Schopf, Gerlingen, Germany, assignor to Union Special Maschinenfabrik, G.m.b.H., Stuttgart, Wurttemberg, Germany Filed July 31, 1967, Ser. No. 657,212 Claims priority, application Germany, Aug. 6, 1966,
U 12,972 U.S. Cl. 112252 Claims Int. Cl. D05b 65/02 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE being effective upon retraction of the thread catcher to engage and conduct portions of the needle thread loops against the thread cutting edge and the other of said hooks being effective upon said retraction to conduct the looper thread against said cutting edge, thereby to separately cut said looper and needle thread portions by engagement thereof between the cutting edge and the hooks.
The invention concerns a cut-off device of the general nature of the devices covered in my copending application for U.S. Letters Patent Ser. No. 548,126, filed May 6, 1966 but improved for adaptation especially for double chain stitch sewing machines where several needles cooperate with a single looper. In the case of such double chain stitch sewing machines wherein several needles and a single looper are employed, the looper thread will cross, depending on the distance of lateral spacing of the needles relative to one another, the needle thread loop located closest to the point of the looper at the height of the path of movement of the thread catcher, whenever the looper is approximately in its foremost end portion. If the thread catcher during its forward movement passes by the loops of the needle thread and the loop thread, then it is diflicult to single out the threads within the area of the crossing, in such a manner that upon the return movement or retraction of the thread catcher the loops of the needle threads will be seized by one catcher hook and the looper thread by the other of the catcher hooks.
The present invention has for its purpose improvement in form and arrangement of the thread severing device of my above mentioned copending application for patent so that the catching hooks of the thread catcher Will correctly single out the individual threads and seize them upon retraction of the thread catcher in such a manner, that one catching hook conducts both loops of the needle threads, and the other catching hook the looper thread, separately, to the cutting edge and to the spring clip of the thread severing device to be severed in the manner desired.
Essentially, the desired purpose is accomplished in that the path of movement of the thread catcher in the case where the looper is disposed approximately in its foremost end position, is arranged to extend above and along the looper blade and pass through the loops of the two needle threads hanging on the blade.
A further characteristic consists in that at least the catching hook for the looper thread is arranged on that Patented Jan. 28, 1969 side of the thread catcher which faces the looper thread piece running to the last stitch, or stated another way, generally in the direction in which the fabric is being fed during progression of the formation of the stitch line. As a result of the fact that the path of movement of the thread catcher passes through the loops of the needle threads hanging around the looper blade when it is in its foremost projected position, the loops of the needle threads are widened during the forward movement of the catching hooks therethrough and the respective pieces of threads are deflected sideways or spread apart. After the catching hooks have passed through said needle thread loops, said loops quickly return to their original position, so that they can be seized by one of the catching hooks when the latter is on its Way back. The looper thread, on the other hand, is forced upwards by the catching hooks and moves sideways only then when it is forced by a catching hook into the near vicinity of the eye of the looper. As a result of this, the looper thread will flex back behind the catching hook only after the latter has moved beyond the loops of the needle threads. Thus, when the catching hooks have arrived at a respective distance beyond the needle thread loops, the looper thread, after the catching hook assigned to it has passed it, will flex back into the recess between the catching hook for the looper thread and that for the needle threads, and will lie across the catcher hook assigned to the loops of the needle threads.
With the above and other objects in view that will hereinafter appear, the nature of the invention will be more clearly understood by reference to the following detailed description, the appended claims and the several views illustrated in the accompanying drawing.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a somewhat schematic perspective View illustrating a portion of a two needle thread, looper thread double chain stitch line and the cooperating thread catcher, thread severing and looper devices, with the looper blade in its foremost position in the needle loops and the thread catcher in position for being projected closely over the blade and through the needle thread loops thereon.
FIGURE 2 is a view similar to FIGURE 1 with the thread catcher projected through the needle thread loops and in effective engagement with the looper supported looper thread.
In this preferred form example presentation of the invention, the loops 1a, 2a of the needle threads 1, 2 are shown hanging around the blade 3 of the looper 4 standing about in its foremost end position. The piece of thread 5a of the looper thread 5 runs in the customary manner from the eye 6 of the looper through the loops 1a, 2a of the needle thread to the preceding stitch.
According to the present invention the path of movement of the thread catcher 7 has been arranged in such a manner that the catching books 8, 9 will move from the position shown in FIGURE 1 to the position shown in FIGURE 2, right through the loops 1a, 2a, of the needle threads. On their way forward, from the position shown in FIGURE 1 to the position shown in FIGURE 2, the catcher hooks 8, 9 will deflect or spread the loops of the needle threads sideways and the legs or portions of each loop facing each other will flex back to their original position after passage of the catching hooks, so that in the part positions shown in FIGURE 2, the pieces of the loop 1a, 2a of the needle threads will again lie in the path of movement of the catching hooks 8, 9 and Will be seized by the catcher book 9 during the return movement or retraction of the thread catcher 7. During its forward movement, the catching book 8 will have engaged, at its side edge facing in the general direction of the arrow SL on FIGURE 2, under the downwardly inclining looper thread portion 5a positioned as shown in FIGURE 1, and permitting said looper thread portion 5a to slide into the recess between catch hooks 8 and 9. However, shortly before reaching the position shown in FIGURE 2, this piece of thread 5a of the looper thread is placed under tension by said engagement thereunder of the mentioned side edge portion of the catcher hook 8 and will extend at an increasingly steeper angle downwardly toward said looper blade eye 6 and due to its steeper angular disposition will slide off the catcher hook 8 and flex back into the recess between the catcher hooks 8, 9 as shown in FIGURE 2, and thus place itself across the catcher hook 9 as shown in FIGURE 2. Upon the return movement or retraction of the thread catcher 7, the catcher hook 9 will be unable to seize the portion 5a of looper thread, but said looper thread portion will be engaged and conducted by the catcher hook 8, separately from the loops of the needle threads seized by the catcher hook 9, to the cutting blade 10 and the spring clip 11 to be severed in the manner previously described. As in the disclosure in my presently copending application Ser. No. 548,126 hereinbefore mentioned the threads will be clamped between the catcher and the spring clip 11 and will be severed against the cutting edge of the cutting blade 10, in this improved invention, however, three threads being clamped and then cut, namely the two needle thread portions 1a and 2a and the looper thread portion 5a. There may also be a preference to employ a spring clip or clamp spring, cutter blade and a thread catcher of improved form and arrangement as herein disclosed sandwiched therebetween, in the manner generally shown in FIGURES 7 and 8 of said copending application Ser. No. 548,126, in which arrangement only the looper thread will be clamped whilst the needle threads will be released after cutting.
It will be apparent from the foregoing, and the schematic illustrations in FIGURES l and 2, that the usual vertically reciprocable needles, not shown in interest of avoiding confusion of the illustrated two needle thread, single looper thread example stitch pattern, pass the needle thread loops 1a and 2a through the material being worked into the position shown in FIGURE 1 wherein said loops receive the looper blade 3 and the looper thread 5 carried and guided thereby as shown in FIG- URE 1, said looper blade, in this illustration being at its foremost projected position. It is at this time that the thread catcher 7 and its hooks 8 and 9, projecting from the catcher 7 generally in the direction in which the fabric is being fed during progression of the formation of the stitch line as indicated by the arrow SL, passes through the needle thread loops 1a and 211 into the position illustrated in FIGURE 2, for purposes previously described. While it is preferred that the path of travel of the thread catcher be arcuate and about a fixed center, and brought about through means such as are shown in my copending application for US. Letters Patent Ser. No. 548,126, filed May 6, 1966, or comparable means, it is to be understood that the thread catcher path may be other than arcuate and brought about through other means within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
