ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are presented for feeding a cloth in an embroidery machine. The method comprises the steps of holding the embroidery area of the cloth in a substantially arcuate manner about a horizontal axis disposed below the needle location and parallel to the Y axis of the Cartesian coordinate system the origin of which is the needle location, and feeding the cloth in the direction of the Y axis, while at the same time, feeding the cloth along the arcuate path about the horizontal axis.
Apparatus for performing the method is disclosed which comprises a transverse feed plate mounted on the table and movable in the direction of the Y axis, a longitudinal feed plate mounted on the table in operative association with the transverse feed plate and individually movable in the direction of the X axis, a holder secured to the transverse feed plate, an interlocking bar operatively connected to the longitudinal feed plate for longitudinal movement therewith, a driving ring mounted on the holder for rotation about a horizontal axis disposed below the needle location and parallel to the Y axis, a cloth gripping frame mounted on the driving ring for holding the embroidery area of the cloth in a substantially arcuate manner about the axis of rotation of the driving ring, and a link motion for converting longitudinal movement of the longitudinal feed plate into a rotational movement of the driving ring.
