15.15 Trimming and Clamping Device for the Needle Threads

Function
–
After the seam end and during drawing forward of the thread the
long stroke of the cylinder 1 is switched on.
The thread catcher 5 lowers and takes up the needle threads.
–
After a predetermined time the thread catcher 5 runs rapidly up
(spring return of the cylinder).
The needle threads are clamped onto the clamping piece 4 and
trimmed at the knife 2.
–
After the first stitches of the next seam the clamped needle
threads are released.
The release occurs through the short stroke of the cylinder 1.
–
The spring-mounted clamping piece 4 causes the thread catcher 5
to lay flat onto the knife 2.
Because of this the knife 2 automatically lies at cut.
Setting is not necessary.
Replacing the knife and thread catcher
After a certain period of operation the knife 2 loses its sharpness. The
blunt knife must be removed for regrinding.
When changing to a different needle spacing the thread catcher 5 must
also be changed.
