Abstract: An embroidery machine includes a plurality of heads installed above a working table and spaced apart from each other. A needle holder inside each head is slidingly movable up and down and includes a plurality of hooks at a lower part vertically opposite to the needle holder. A plurality of embroidery frames are installed between the needle holder and the hook. A guide rail is disposed in the X direction with respect to each embroidery frame, and an X-axis driver linear motor moves the embroidery frame in the X direction. A guide rail is disposed in the Y direction with respect to each embroidery frame, and a Y-axis driver linear motor moves the embroidery frame in the Y direction. A controller controls a plurality of X-axis and Y-axis driver linear motors and actuates or stops only one of the plurality of embroidery frames.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for driving an embroidery frame of a multi-headed embroidery machine having a plurality of heads. Linear motors, for driving the embroidery frame in a direction of X-axis or Y-axis, are subdivided by their capacities so that they can be wired externally to prevent the deflection of the embroidery frame. The plurality of linear motors can be controlled simultaneously by means of a driver and a linear scale.

Abstract: An embroidery machine technical support system includes at least one technical support server and a plurality of embroidery machines communicating with the technical support server through a public network. Each embroidery machine has an emulator in order for the embroidery machine to establish connection to the technical support server through the public network, receive a technical support page from the technical support server, send a technical information request signal to the technical support server using the technical support page, and receive corresponding technical information from the technical supporter server. The technical support server sends the technical support page when the embroidery machine establishes connection with the technical support server and sends technical information in response to the technical information request signal from the embroidery machine.

Abstract: A head control device and its control method for a multi-head embroidery machine having a plurality of heads are disclosed. The present invention provides a head control device and its control method for a multi-head embroidery machine having a plurality of heads. The head control device comprises a central control unit controlling a whole system, the central control unit outputs a control signal for controlling a drive state of the respective head in response to an operation of an operator, so that the plurality of heads are selectively driven, and a embroidery task is performed by the selected head; and at least one head control unit for controlling the drive state of the respective head in response to the control signal from the central control unit.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for driving a shuttle of an embroidery machine. The apparatus comprises: a rotation shaft of the shuttle; a lower shaft which transfers a driving power to the rotation shaft, so as to rotate the shuttle; a first magnet provided at the rotation shaft; and a second magnet provided at the lower shaft and corresponding to the first magnet. The first magnet has a hollow cylindrical shape so that the rotation shaft can be inserted through the first magnet while firmly holding the first magnet. The second magnet has a hollow cylindrical shape so that the lower shaft can be inserted through the second magnet while firmly holding the second magnet.

Abstract: The embroidery machine for reducing vibration and noise comprises a table 2; an embroidery frame 4 placed on the table 2; a head 12 located above the embroidery frame 4, the head having a plurality of needles; a hook 14 installed below the table 2, the hook being opposite to the head 12; an X-axis driver unit 17 for providing power to move the embroidery frame 4 forward and backward in X direction; an Y-axis driver unit 39 for providing power to move the embroidery frame 4 forward and backward in Y direction; and a control unit 28 for being connected to the X-axis and Y-axis driver units 17, 139.

Abstract: A method for diagnosing a fault of a embroidery machine, includes the steps of: (a) indicating that an embroidery operation is stopped by the fault of the embroidery machine and displaying a web-browser drive guide message; (b) displaying a fault diagnosis-dedicated web-page in response to a web-browser drive signal inputted by an operator; (c) transmitting fault-related information, inputted into the fault diagnosis-dedicated web-page by the operator, from an embroidery system to a server computer system; and (d) transmitting the fault diagnosis-dedicated web-page from a server computer system to the embroidery system, diagnosing the fault of the embroidery machine by employing the fault-related information inputted into the fault diagnosis-dedicated web-page in order to generate fault diagnosis information, and transmitting the fault diagnosis information to the embroidery system.
