Abstract
A sewing machine for sewing two material layers to each other in aligned positions, comprises a top feeding mechanism engageable with a top layer for feeding it and a bottom feed mechanism engageable with a bottom layer of material for feeding it. The top and bottom feeding mechanisms are connected to a synchronizing device which regulates the relative speed between the two. A sensor or measuring means is engageable with the material being fed and is connected to the synchronizing means in order to vary the relative speed of the top and bottom feeds in accordance with the actual feed of the material layers.
Claims6
A sewing machine for sewing two material layers to each other in aligned positions, comprising top feed means for feeding a top layer of material, bottom feed means for feeding a bottom layer of material, synchronizing means connected between said top feed means and said bottom feed means for regulating the speed of said top feed means in respect to said bottom feed means, and continuously operable measuring means engageable with the material being fed adjacent the portion being sewed together and continuously producing measuring pulses and being connected to said synchronizing means to deliver the measuring pulses to said synchronizing means to cause it to vary the relative speed of said top and bottom feed means in accordance with the feed of said material layers.
A sewing machine for sewing two material layers to each other in aligned positions, comprising top feed means for feeding a top layer of material, bottom feed means for feeding a bottom layer of material, synchronizing means connected between said top feed means and said bottom feed means for regulating the speed of said top feed means in respect to said bottom feed means, and measuring means engageable with the material being fed and connected to said synchronizing means to vary the relative speed of said top and bottom feed means in accordance with the feed of said material layers;
- said measuring means comprising a top and bottom rotatable roller engageable with the individual top and bottom layers of material being fed, said rollers comprising impulse transmitters, said synchronizing means comprising an adjusting device connected to said impulse transmitters and responsive thereto for regulating the speed of said top feed means in respect to said bottom feed means.
A sewing machine for sewing two material layers to each other in aligned positions, comprising top feed means for feeding a top layer of material, bottom feed means for feeding a bottom layer of material, synchronizing means connected between said top feed means and said bottom feed means for regulating the speed of said top feed means in respect to said bottom feed means, and measuring means engageable with the material being fed and connected to said synchronizing means to vary the relative speed of said top and bottom feed means in accordance with the feed of said material layers;
- a guide fixture for an edge parallel sewing of the two material layers to each other, said guide fixture comprising supporting plates for the material layers which are superposed in spaced relationship, the supporting plate for the upper material layer comprising an abutment, said measuring means comprising a separate top and bottom measuring roller engageable with the responsive materials being fed, said top one of said supporting plates comprising an abutment of the two measuring wheels.
