DESCRIPTION

electro-mechanical

underbed

thread

trimming

unit,

which

is an

integral

part of the

machine,

incorporated

in the "B"

variety machines.

The

machine

driven

by a

needle

positioner motor, and its

sensor

and controlbox

relay

the electronic

commands

to the

built-in

solenoids

the

machine.

The needle and bobbin threads are trimmed below the throat plate after the sewing operation.

A threadwiper

"Wipes"

the

needle

thread to proper positionfor startingthe next

sewing

operation.

In addition to the under bed thread trimming unit, a back tackingsystem is incorporatedin the "G"

variety

machines. The

automatic back tack switch and control box relay the electronic commandsto the built-insolenoidfor automatic back tacking

at start and at end of stitching. The push button switch

provided

adjacentto the

needle

barpermitsback

tacking

in the midst

the sewing operation.

This manual should be used in connection with the Service Manual Form U3208 for the regular 591 machine. It informs

especially regarding the operation and maintenance

the underbed thread trimmer and back tacking

device

and their

drive

systems.

DESCRIPTION

THE

TRIMMING

OPERATION

When

the foot treadle is returned to its neutral position

upon completion

the sewing cycle, the machine

stops approximately Smm (.118") beyond the bottom

dead center of the needle (Fig. 5, hook point in the

loop of needle thread) when the sensor plate A (red)

reaches a point shown in Fig. 6.

2. Heeling the foot treadle will start the machine to run

at the trimming speed (200 r.p.m).

The trimmer solenoid is energized when the sensor

plate B (yellow) reaches a point shown in Fig, 7.

SENSOR

PLATE

Fig. 7

When the cam follower on the thread puller action plate slips into the recessed portion

the thread puller action cam

adjustingplate, the thread puller is activated to move through the loop (Fig. 8) to a point shown in solid line in Fig.9,

and the needle and bobbin threads are positioned as shown also in Fig. 9. Simultaneously, the thread puller action plate

pushes

the tension

release

action plate

making

its pin ride on the tension

release

action cam. Immediately when the pin

rides on the tension

release

action cam,the electroniccommandrelayedfrom the sensorplate C (yellow,Fig. 10) cuts

off

the current supply to the trimmersolenoid. The

above

motion

5. As the needle thread is cast

off

the rotating hook, it

catches on the hook portion

the thread puller.

(Fig. 11)

6. The tension release action plate pin reaches the inclina

tion

the

tension

release

action

cam

and

starts

leasing the tension discs immediately after the needle

thread catches on

the

thread puller.

Fig. 11

While

the above takes place,the camfolloweron the thread pulleraction plate reachesthe inclinationon the thread puller

action camand the thread puller beginsto pull the bobbin and needlethreads toward the stationary knife.

The

bobbin

and

needle

threads

are

severed

when

the

cutting edge

the thread puller closes in against the

cutting edge

the stationary knife. (Fig. 12 and 13)

9. When the threads are trimmed, the spring biased

tension release action plate moves back to its rest

position

disengaging

its pin from the tension release

action cam and thus completesits function of

releasing

and holding the needle thread tension open.

10. The trimmer and tension releasing mechanisms return

to their rest positions upon completion

the

trimming operation and the machine stopsin the upper

needle position. When the sensor plate D (yellow)

reaches a point shown in Fig. 14.
