Abstract
A stopping device for an eyelet button holing machine provides a stopper arm which plunges into a recess portion of a stopper cam positioned coaxial to the main shaft. To absorb the stopping impulse, extra wheel cams are provided coaxial to the main shaft which induce the stopper arm to be inclined such that its position causes a clutch pulley to contact with a low speed pulley and then the stopper arm plunges into the recess portion of the stopper cam. Thus, the machine is stopped in two steps and the stopping impulse force is effectively alleviated.
Claims2
In an eyelet button holing machine which provides a stopper cam at a main shaft, a stopper arm having a stopper hook which is arranged to engage with said stopper cam by plunging said stopper hook into a recess portion of the stopper cam, a stopping device comprising:
- (a) wheel cams provided at the main shaft and arranged to vary the inclination of the stopper arm by engaging with the stopper arm;
- (b) a high-speed pulley adapted to transmit the high speed of the main shaft;
- (c) a low-speed pulley adapted to transmit the low speed of the main shaft;
- (d) a clutch pulley slidably placed between said high-speed pulley and said low-speed pulley;
- (e) a clutch cam adapted to rotate in association with the stopper arm;
- and
- (f) a yoke adapted to cause said clutch pulley to contact with said high-speed pulley or with said low-speed pulley by rotating said clutch cam.
