  • Patent number: 9187853
    Abstract: A head unit fixed sewing machine is provided, which includes a table, support posts, an upper beam, a head unit and a bed unit. An object is placed on the table. The support posts are provided on opposite sides of the table. The upper beam connects the support posts to each other and is coupled to upper ends of the support posts. The head unit is fastened to the upper beam and has a head-unit-rotating means for rotating a sewing head within a predetermined range. The bed unit is provided below the head unit and has a bed-unit-rotating means for rotating a sewing bed within a predetermined range. Because the head unit and the bed unit can be rotated while sewing, the orientation of a sewn thread can be maintained constant. Hence, a perfect stitch can be realized over the entirety of the object.

  • Publication number: 20140135971
    Abstract: Provided are a sewing design manufacturing management apparatus and method, which can provide information associated with sewing processes necessary for manufacturing an end product, on the basis of sewing design information. In order for a user to easily input information and data necessary for a sewing process, a design shape for each process is provided by analyzing the sewing design information of an end product generated or provided from the outside. The design shape for each process makes it easier to input sewing information and sewing data on a corresponding process. Working hours and cost may be calculated on the basis of at least one of the input sewing information and sewing data. The sewing information and sewing data may be transmitted to a corresponding sewing manufacturing device over a network, thereby setting work parameters for performing a necessary process.

  • Patent number: 8499704
    Abstract: A motor pulley for an overlock sewing machine is provided. The motor pulley includes a frame which forms a body of the pulley, and a plurality of ribs which are integrally formed with the frame. Each rib is oriented in a radial direction at a predetermined angle displaced from an axial center line of the pulley. The motor pulley further includes a ramp which is formed on one side surface of each of the ribs, and a slot which is formed in the pulley so that outside air can enter the motor pulley. The motor pulley of the present invention increases the flow rate of air that is blown from the pulley to a motor of the overlock sewing machine. Furthermore, the path of air flow of the motor pulley is improved, thus reducing a loss of air flow and increasing the flow rate of air.

  • Publication number: 20120166237
    Abstract: A method of predicting expected work contents based on the analysis of an embroidery design, and a method of managing productivity and method of analyzing the return of investment and machine residual value using the method are provided. In the method of predicting productivity of an embroidering machine, basic work information such as a total number of stitches for an embroidery design, a number of times a thread is trimmed, a number of changes in a color of a thread, and a size of the embroidery design is analyzed. Expected work information that is predicted in order for an embroidering machine to produce the embroidery design is calculated based on the analyzed basic work information.
