  • Page 8 Needle throwing The needle throwing motion is controlled by transmitting an angle of rotation of the needle throwing STM shaft to the needle bar frame by way of link. The time to compensate the origin of STM is when the needle throws to the left stitch base line as long as the power to the machine is ON. When the STM is turned beyond the right stitch base line, the needle bar disengaging mechanism actuates.
  • Page 9 Embroidring device 1) The machine is fed, when embroidering, by the X feed STM and Y feed STM. An angle of rotation of each STM is transmitted, by means of a gear and belt, to the embroidery frame as a linear travel amount in X/Y direction. This causes the machine to sew an embroidery pattern. 2) When a large, medium or small embroidery frame is installed on the machine, three frame detection switches are turned ON or OFF, and the machine determinates the possible range of layout of the patterns that can be sewn in accordance with the size of embroidery frame, i.e., large, medium or small, installed.
  • Page 10 Memory 1) When a pattern or a letter is selected, it is automatically stored in memory. 2) The maximum number that can be stored in memory is 120. For the embroidery patterns, the number of patterns to be sewn changes in accordance with the size of the frame or the size of the patterns stored in memory, and the limit ofthe number of patterns stored in memory is automatically computed and set.
  • Page 11 5) The main shaft which has been disengaged stops at 40˚ to 50˚ by the main shaft disengaging stopper. 6) Main shaft returns from disengagement when the data other than the disengagement of main shaft occur (70˚), the needle throwing STM starts driving at 287˚ and the main shaft disengaging link moves to the waiting position.
