INTERPOLATION AMONG DIFFERENT KINDS OF PATTERNS BY MEANS OF ELECTRONIC SEWING MACHINE

摘要

An electronic pattern stitching sewing machine has an arrangement for producing signals directing it to stitch a selectable number of patterns in series. These signals are then used to identify the last needle position coordinate of a preceding stitched pattern of the series and the initial needle position coordinate of the next-following pattern to be stitched in the series and, in dependence upon this, the most appropriate interconnecting pattern from a memorized group of such interconnected patterns is selected and stitched, so as to interconnect the preceding stitched pattern and the next-following pattern of the series.
