| 20080257240 | Machine-assisted free-hand embroidery method - A method and device for free-hand embroidering on a sewing material with a sewing machine which has a memory for stitch data for a sewing pattern and a processor for reading the stitch data and for causing the sewing machine to execute stitches according to stitch data, which sewing machine has a needle and a sewing material feeder for moving the sewing material in a direction, which processor controls movements according to the direction relative to the position of the needle for the execution of stitches according to the sewing pattern, and which method includes during use of the sewing machine in a free-hand mode: storage in the memory of stitch data for at least one stitch type for free-hand embroidering, choice of a stitch type, maneuvering, via first control signals, a movement of the sewing material feeder in any desired the direction by using a hand-operated control, detection of the first control signals in the processor, calculation in the processor, from the first control signals, of the direction and/or speed of the movement, and control of the sewing material feeder by the processor, via second control signals, for the execution of stitches in the direction and/or at the speed in accordance with stitch data for the chosen stitch type. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20080308026 | Embroiderable sewing machine - An embroiderable sewing machine, including a plurality types of embroidery frames that hold a workpiece cloth to be embroidered; a carriage allowing selective attachment and detachment of the embroidery frames; a transfer mechanism that transfers the carriage independently in two orthogonal directions; a first detector that outputs a constant signal corresponding to the type of embroidery frame attached to the carriage; a second detector capable of outputting a detection signal based on presence and absence of a detection subject provided at the embroidery frame; and a signal converter that converts the constant signal outputted from the first detector into a periodic signal based on the detection signal outputted from the second detector. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20090013911 | THREAD FEEDING APPARATUS FOR AN AUTOMATIC EMBROIDERING MACHINE - A thread feeding apparatus for an automatic embroidering machine comprises a thread supplying unit to supply one upper thread selected among a plurality of upper threads different in color; a pair of thread guides formed with a thread guiding channel to guide the upper thread supplied from the thread supplying unit, and continuously formed along a thread transferring path of the thread guiding channel, leaving a space portion; a thread take-up unit provided with a thread retainer to retain the upper thread, oscillating between a top dead point and a bottom dead point, and strengthening and releasing the tension of the upper thread; and a thread take-out unit comprising a thread take-out lever to hold and take out the upper thread passing through the space portion, and a thread take-out driver to reciprocate the thread take-out lever to put the upper thread held by the thread take-out lever into the thread retainer. Thus, the present invention provides a thread feeding apparatus for an automatic embroidering machine, which prevents an upper thread from being cut when the upper thread is replaced, and reduces time taken to replace the upper thread, thereby enhancing work efficiency. | 01-15-2009 |
