| 20080216720 | Embroidery Machine - An embroidery machine includes a sewing arm having an upper shaft for providing a driving force, a needle bar support case, which is assembled to a front portion of the sewing arm so as to be laterally movable, a needle bar provided in a needle bar support case, the needle bar having a needle at a lower end thereof and vertically carrying the needle using a rotation driving force of the upper shaft, and a presser foot, which is provided in the needle bar support case so as to be vertically movable, characterized in that each of the needle bar and the presser foot is operated by an individual drive mechanism. The presser foot is separately driven by its own drive source, independent of the drive source of the needle bar. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080257242 | Apparatus for Lifting Presser Foot of Embroidery Machine - An apparatus for lifting the presser foot of an embroidery machine includes an arm having an upper shaft providing a driving force, a presser foot driving cam mounted on the upper shaft, a transmission member coupled to the presser foot driving cam and making an oscillating motion, a presser foot driving lever connected to the transmission member and pivoting around a predetermined pivoting point thereof in a vertical direction, a presser foot driving block reciprocating along a needle bar guide shaft according to an amount that the presser foot driving lever is pivoted and moving the presser foot in a vertical direction, and a presser foot height adjustor, displacing the pivoting point of the presser foot driving lever to adjust a height of the presser foot. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20090249990 | Presser Foot Drive Structure for Embroidery Machine - A presser foot drive structure of an embroidery machine, by which a vertically movable presser foot for preventing a sheet of cloth to be sewn from rising in a sewing operation is vertically moved inside a sewing head. The presser foot drive structure includes a presser foot drive holder, which is vertically slidable and is mounted on the outer circumference of a needle bar, which is vertically driven; a presser foot drive shaft, which is disposed parallel to the needle bar via the presser foot drive holder; and the presser foot, which is disposed at the lower end of the presser foot drive shaft and vertically reciprocates. It is possible to reduce the stroke of a presser foot so that it is smaller than that of a needle bar, enhance the supporting force for a needle bar, and reduce the shaking of a presser foot. | 10-08-2009 |
