Abstract A quick-release clamping holder for a sewing needle, embroidery needle or the like has a needle receptacle (2) on which a needle clamping part (8) is preferably pivotally supported. A fixing element (14) is provided in order to clamp and fix the needle clamping part (8) in place, whereby said fixing element is pivotally or rotatably supported relative to a longitudinal central axis (13) of the needle and thus can be slid onto and off the needle clamping part (8). Actuation is simple and safe.
Full Text Clamping Device for Needles
The invention relates to a needle holder that is suitable,
in general, for needles and, in particular for embroidery
needles, for example, Schifflin needles.
Embroidery machines, in particular large embroidery
machines, are provided with needle rods, each having on its end
a clamping device for a needle. The needles are also referred
to as embroidery needles or as Schifflin needles. During the
embroidery process, the needle rods are moved back and forth in
axial direction in order to repeatedly puncture the needle
through a textile product.
The frequent change of needles is necessary.
To do so, document GB 387 073 suggests that needles held
on a bar be mounted in a revolver head which, for example, can
be moved inzo four index positions. If one of the four needles
held on the revolver head breaks, the revolver head may be
rotated forward by 90° in order to bring a new needle into
position. The needles are held on the revolver head by means of
a clamping claw, which can be tightened or loosened by means of
a fastening screw.
Furthermore, document DE-OS 1 927 498 discloses a needle
holder in which several needles are held in a pivotable manner.

They can be selectively moved into a rest position or a working
position. Consequently, threads of different colors can be
selected.
It is the object of the invention to provide a possibility
for fastening the needles to the needle rods so as to make
possible a simple and rapid needle change.
This object is achieved with a needle holder in accordance
with Claim 1:
The needle holder in accordance with the invention
comprises a needle-receiving part with a clamping part and a
fixing part, by means of which the needle clamping part can be
fixed in a clamping position. The needle holder is provided on
a needle rod in an extension. It may also be seamlessly
connected in one piece thereto. The fixing element is pushed
onto the needle clamping part in order to fix it in place and
is moved away from the clamping part in order to release it.
Thus, the needle can be fastened in a particularly easy manner
to the needle rod, and removed therefrom in an equally easy
manner, in one simple manual step. The direction of insertion
or removal of the needle is possible transverse to the
longitudinal direction of the needle or the needle rod. Thus,
the change of the needle is not affected by objects that are in
front of the needle tip. Therefore, the manual effort required
for changing the needle is quite minimal. On the other hand,
the needle is securely held on the needle rod.
The needle-receiving part of the needle holder or the
needle rod has, as the seat for the accommodation of the
needle, preferably an elongated channel-like recess which is

adapted to one end of the needle. This end of the needle, also
referred to as the "plunger", represents the holding section. A
transverse pin or a transverse rib may be located in the
channel-like recess. This pin or this rib may be associated
with a notch provided in one end of the needle. However, it is
also possible to set state-of-the-art needles with a flattened
plunger or end - as they are currently used in large numbers in
the textile industry - into such a needle holder. Thus, it is
retro-compatible.
Preferably, the needle clamping part is configured as a
tension flap that is supported in a manner so as to be
pivotable toward the end of the needle and away therefrom. On
one side, the end of the plunger or the needle is accommodated
by the needle-receiving part. Its other side is held by the
needle clamping part, for example having the form of a clamping
flap. In tensioned state, the clamping flap or the needle
clamping part is radially pushed against the plunger of the
needle, as a result of which the needle, in turn, is pushed
into the needle-receiving part and thus clamped in place. This
clamping position is secured by the fixing element. If, as
opposed to this, the fixing element is released, the clamping
flap may be folded away from the plunger of the needle. Thus it
clears half of the cylindrical space enclosing the plunger. In
other words, when the end of the needle is clamped in place,
the needle clamping part is moved into a space, which is
located - relative to the end of the needle - radially above
the seat of said needle. During the release step, the needle
clamping part is cleared, i.e., the clamping flap, is moved out
of the region of this space. Thus, the embroidery needle can be
easily removed from the needle holder. A new needle can simply
be set into the needle holder. It is not necessary to axially

thread or fit said needle into any openings.
Preferably the needle clamping part and the needle-
receiving part, together, essentially complement each other to
form a cylindrical external contour when the needle clamping
element, e.g., the clamping flap, is in clamping position. This
permits a slim design, as well as also a simple fixation of the
needle clamping part in the clamping position. This applies,
independent of whether the clamping flap can be pivoted about a
pivot axis that is transverse to the longitudinal direction of
the needle and approximately parallel to a separating surface
between the needle-receiving part and the needle clamping part,
or can be pivoted about a pivot axis that is oriented in a
direction parallel to the needle axis. In both cases, the
fixing element may easily be slid over the resultant
cylindrical external contour in order to secure the needle
clamping part in clamping position.
This shifting of the fixing element preferably occurs in
the course of a pivoting motion. For example, the fixing
element is configured as a notch lever that is laterally slid
over the needle clamping part. In so doing, the fixing element,
in one embodiment, may be pivotally supported on the needle-
receiving part. The pivot axis is oriented parallel to the
needle, for example. It is also possible to support the fixing
element so as to be rotatable about the needle-receiving part
about a central axis that is concentric to the axis of
rotation. Alternatively, the fixing element may also be
supported in a pivotable manner on the needle clamping part in
order to come into engagement with the needle-receiving part
when in clamping position.

The fixing element may be held in its fixing position by
at least one detent means. For example, the fixing means may
consist of a slightly elastic plastic material that imparts the
fixing element with resilience or a spring effect. When
configured as a pivotally supported lever with a recess, this
lever can be pivoted toward the needle clamping part in such a
manner that said lever's recess comes into engagement with the
needle clamping part and, at the same time, tensions said
needle clamping part relative to the plunger of the needle.
When the aforementioned principles are applied, numerous
modifications are possible. In addition, it is possible to used
said features in almost any combination with each other. In so
doing, the features may be used individually, as well as in any
combination or partial combination.
The description hereinafter is restricted to several
embodiments of the invention in order to explain essential
elements of said invention, as well as other situations. The
drawings disclose additional details and are to be referred to

Figure 1 shows a needle holder 1 in accordance with the
invention, said needle holder being configured as a quick-
release clamping holder. This needle holder comprises a needle-
receiving part 2 that is disposed to fasten a needle rod. To
achieve this, the needle-receiving part 2 is provided with a
journal 3 on its one end. Extending away therefrom is the
remaining body 4 of the needle-receiving part 2. The body 4
has, on its end opposite the journal 3, approximately the shape
of a longitudinally divided semi-cylinder which has a
preferably flat surface 5 extending essentially in longitudinal
direction. This surface is traversed by a channel-like recess
that forms a seat 6 for the accommodation, of the end 7 of a
needle. This end 7 ("plunger") is disposed to support or fasten
the needle. The needle is an embroidery needle, for example.
The seat 6 is associated with a needle clamping part 8
that is configured as a pivotable clamping jaw. This needle
clamping part has a semi-cylindrical form and has an also
preferably flat surface 9 that faces the preferably flat
surface 5. If necessary, the surface 9 may be provided with a
groove or other recesses. In the present exemplary embodiment,
the end 7 of the needle is flattened, whereby the flattened
side faces the surface 9. Apart from that, the needle clamping
part 8 is essentially semi-cylindrical, whereby it has, on one
end, an extension 10 that is disposed to provide a pivotable
support for the clamping part 8 on the body 4. The extension 10
extends into a corresponding recess of the body 4 and is held
there by a not specifically illustrated transverse pin. This
pi.n is seated in an appropriate transverse bore 11 and defines
a pivot axis 12 for the clamping part 8. As a result of this,
the clamping part 8 can be pivoted toward the end 7 of the
needle and away therefrom. The pivot axis 12 is preferably

oriented in a direction transverse to a longitudinal center
axis 13 of the needle. In addition, the pivot axis 12 is
preferably oriented parallel to the surface 5. Figure 1 shows
the needle clamping part 8 in its release position. In this
release position, an acute aperture angle of at least 45
degrees, preferably at least 75 degrees, is formed between the
surface 9 of the needle clamping part 8 and the surface 5 of
the body 4. Due to this, it is easy to remove the needle by its
end 7 from its seat 6. This is done with the clamping part 8
folded open and with the seat completely exposed.
In addition, a fixing element 14 belongs to the needle
holder 1, said fixing element being represented by a notch
lever 15 in the present exemplary embodiment. This notch lever
is preferably mounted on the needle-receiving part 2 so as to
be pivotable about a pivot axis 16, said axis being defined by
a journal 17 extending through an opening of the notch lever
15. The journal 17 and the pivot axis 16 preferably extend
parallel to the longitudinal central axis 13 that is defined by
the seat 6 and thus in a direction transverse to the pivot axis
12.
The notch lever 15 consists, for example, of a slightly
resilient plastic material. It is provided with an opening or a
recess 18 that approximately follows the cylindrical contour
that is defined, together by the needle-receiving part 2 and
the needle clamping part 8 when the needle clamping part 8 is
in clamping position as shown by Figure 2. In so doing, the
contour of the recess 18 follows the contour of the cylinder up
to a projection 19 with which the notch lever 15 extends over
the needle clamping part 8, thus tensioning against the end 7
of the needle.

The one bearing end 20 of the lever 15 is seated on the
pin 17 and has a handle end 21 located on the opposite side,
said handle end acting as a feature for moving the lever 15 out
of its relea.se position shown in Figure 1 into its fixing
position shown in Figure 2. In addition, a thread guide 22
configured as an eyelet may be held on the notch lever 15.
Particularly suitable therefor is the rear side of the notch
lever 15 facing away from the recess 18. The thread guide 22
may be represented by a screwed-on bent sheet metal piece.
Furthermore, the notch lever 15 is secured on the journal
17 by means of a retaining ring.
In some embodiments the notch lever 15 may consist
entirely of slightly elastic plastic material, as mentioned,
and can thus itself provide the spring action with respect to
the radial direction of the journal 17, as is necessary for the
engagement effect. It is also possible to make the notch lever
15 of a stiff material, for example metal, and to provide
elastic means in the region of its recess 18, for example, in
the form of resiliently supported tongues or other elements,
elastic linings or the like. Furthermore, it is possible to
elastically support the journal 17 or to provide an elastic
bushing or similarly elastic means between the journal 17 and
the bearing end 20. All of these measures and additional
corresponding measures are suitable to permit the projection 19
to yield in an elastic manner when said projection is pushed
over the rounded outside of the needle clamping part 8.
Figure 3 illustrates the needle holder 1 in a side view,
in closed state, in which case the notch lever 15 has been

omitted. As is obvious, the end 7 of the needle is clamped
between the needle clamping part 8 and the needle-receiving
part 2. However, as shown by Figure 4, positioning of the end 7
is defined by a pin 24 which fits into a notch 25 of the
plunger or end 7 of the needle. The pin 24 is arranged at least
approximately parallel to a pin 26 seated in the transverse
bore 11, thus forming the hinge joint for the needle clamping
part 8. The pin 24 traverses the depression-shaped or channel-
shaped seat 6.
The needle holder 1 described so far operates as follows:
In order to change the needle, the notch lever 15 is moved
into a release position, as shown by Figure 1, in that said
lever is pivoted away from the needle clamping part 8. This
part is now freely movable and can be pivoted away from the
needle or its end 7. In so doing, the needle clamping part 8
frees a semi-cylindrical space relative to a longitudinal
central axis 13, said space being largely cleared, preferably
completely cleared, so that the needle is exposed to daylight
in its seat 6. The needle may be removed, e.g., by hand, and,
if necessary be replaced in the seat or be exchanged for
another needle. In so doing, the removal direction of the
needle is transverse to the longitudinal direction of the
needle. In order to clamp the needle in place, the needle
clamping part 8 is moved from the release position shown by
Figure 1 to the end 7 of the needle. In so doing, the notch
lever 15 is slid over the needle clamping part 8 by a pivoting
motion, as shown by Figure 2. Due to the adapted diameter of
the recess 18, as well as due to the flexibility or elasticity
of the notch lever 15, the clamping element 8 is pushed against
the end 7 and thus fixed in clamping position. Consequently,

the notch lever 15 forms a fixing element for the clamping part
The needle holder forms a quick-release clamping holder
which can be opened and closed with a few particularly simple
motions of the hands, so that exchanging the needle is
particularly easy.
Figure 5 shows a modified embodiment of the needle holder
1. Different from the description so far, the journal 17
supports two notch levers 15a, 15, which can be pivoted in
opposite directions, and whereby said levers can be slid from
opposite sides over the needle clamping part 8. Other than
that, the above description applies analogously, using the same
reference numbers, whereby only details relating to the notch
levers 15a, 15b are labeled with letters for differentiation.
As is obvious from Figure 6, in particular, the clamping levers
15a, 15b, together, form a fixing element for the needle
clamping part 8. In fixing position, the handle ends 21a, 21b
can be in alignment with each other or, as illustrated, can be
offset relative to each other.
Referring to the above embodiments of the needle holder,
the fixing element is supported on the needle-receiving part 2
or the body 4 that is preferably connected seamlessly in one
piece with the needle-receiving part. However, as is shown by
Figures 7 and 8, it is also possible to support the fixing
element on the needle clamping part 8. To do so, the needle
clamping part 8 - which, in turn, may have on its outside a
preferably cylindrically curved surface (but need not be that
way) - is provided with an extension 27, from which the journal
28 extends parallel to the longitudinal axis of a cylinder that

is defined by the needle-receiving part 2 and the needle
clamping part 8. Again, a notch lever 29 may be seated on the
journal 28 as the fixing element, said notch lever having an
appropriate opening 30 for the accommodation of the journal 28.
The notch lever 29 has a hook-shaped end 31 that can extend
around under the needle seat. On its opposite end, said hook-
shaped end may be provided with a thread guide device 32.
The actuation takes place as is obvious from Figures 7 and
8. If the hook-shaped end 31 is slid under the needle-receiving
part 2, the outermost section of the end 31 forms a projection
19 that engages the notch lever 29 in this position. At the
same time, the needle clamping part 8 is tensioned against the
needle-receiving part 2. If the end 31, however, is moved away
from the needle-receiving part 2 by appropriately pivoting the
notch lever, the needle clamping part 8 is released. It can now
be folded into the open position. As shown by Figures 1 and 2,
this is accomplished with a needle clamping part 8 that can be
pivoted about a pivot axis 12 transverse to the needle. This
can also be accomplished with other embodiments, in which the
needle clamping part 8, as shown in particular by Figure 8, can
be pivoted about a pivot axis 12a that is oriented parallel to
the longitudinal extension of the seat 6 and thus is aligned
with the longitudinal axis 13 that is also indicated in Figure
8. Other than that, the previous description, in particular
also with regard to the pin 24, applies analogously.
Figure 9 shows another modified embodiment of the
invention. This embodiment is essentially based on the
embodiment in accordance with Figures 1 and 2, with analogous
reference being made to the description of said embodiment and
using the same reference numbers. However, there are

differences regarding the design of the fixing element which,
in this case is not configured as a notch lever but as a
clamping lever 33. Said latter lever is provided with a
pivotally supported lever-actuated eccentric clamping device
34, instead of with a detent projection. The lever-actuated
eccentric clamping device 34 is represented by a clamping cam
35 that is arranged on the clamping lever 33 so as to be
pivotable and preferably located on the outermost end or edge
of said lever's recess 18. It replaces the (detent) projection
19. A pin 36 that radially extends away from the clamping cam
35 acts as the lever for tightening and releasing the clamping
cam 35.
Figures 10 and 11 show another possible modification. This
embodiment applies similar principles as the above-described
embodiments. However, different from the aforementioned
embodiments, it is particularly suitable for the direct
integration in a needle rod 37, while, based on the above-
described concept, the needle holder 1 is intended as an
attachment component for a needle rod.
Thus, in accordance with Figures 10 and 11, the needle rod
37 forms its own needle holder 1', whereby its needle-side end
is configured accordingly. A longitudinal groove is provided in
the end of the needle rod so that the end of the needle rod 37
forms the needle-receiving part 2' with the seat 6'. The end 7
of the needle can be placed in this seat 6'. In the groove
forming the seat 6', the needle clamping part 8' having the
shape of a tongue or finger can be pivoted in the groove and be
folded into the groove. In so doing, the needle clamping part
8' is dimensioned in such a manner that said clamping part
projects minimally beyond the outside circumference of the end

of the needle rod 37 when said clamping part is in clamping
position, i.e., in the groove. As is obvious from Figure 11,
said clamping part's rear-side edges are provided with chamfers
38, 39, i.e., they are chamfered, so that a fixing part can be
smoothly pushed beyond the needle clamping part 8', or its
section that projects beyond the outside circumference of the
needle rod 37, in order to fix the needle in place.
Around the end of the needle rod 37, i.e., around the
needle-receiving part 2', there is a flat groove 40 in which is
seated a fixing element. In this case, this element is
represented by a rotary body 41 that is seated with an opening
on the needle-receiving part 2' in the groove 40 and, in so
doing, extends around the needle-receiving part 2'. However,
the edge of the opening of the rotary body 41 is not
continuously closed. Rather, the edge has a passage 42 which
can act as a passage for the needle clamping part 8'. Figure 10
shows the release position, and Figure 11 shows the clamping
position. In clamping position, the rotary body 41 is slid over
the needle clamping part 8' in such a manner that said body
tensions said clamping part against the end 7 of the needle. In
order to move the clamping body 41, a handle 43 connected
thereto may be used. Other than that, the above description
applies analogously, with the supplementary use of the same
reference numbers.
Additional modifications are possible. For example the
rotary body 41 may be rounded on its outside, as shown by
Figure 12, in which case - other than that - the description of
the embodiments in accordance with Figures 10 and 11 applies
analogously.

The rotary body 41 may consist, for example, of plastic
material, or it may also consist of another less resilient
material such as, for example metal. It may be made in such a
manner that said rotary body tensions the needle clamping part
8' against the end 7 of the needle when said rotary body is
rotated about the longitudinal central axis 13 and thus slid
over the outward-located rear surface of the needle clamping
part 8'. In so doing, this longitudinal central axis 13
represents the axis of rotation for the rotary body 41.
As shown by Figure 13, the rotary body 41 may also be
configured as a slim C-clip. This clip is slightly resilient in
radial direction and, in clamping position of the needle
clamping part 8', pushes against the end 7 of the needle. When
the rotary body 41 is rotated away from the needle clamping
part 8', said rotary body releases said needle clamping part.
The needle clamping part can be folded out of the groove
analogously to Figure 10, thus releasing the needle.
Referring to another exemplary embodiment (not
illustrated), the rotary body 41 is configured as a slim
bushing that is slid over the needle clamping part 8' in order
to clamp the needle clamping part 8' in place the longitudinal
direction of the needle. To do so, the groove 40 is wider in
axial direction, so that sliding the rotary body or the sliding
body 41 becomes possible. For the release of the needle
clamping part 8', the sliding body 41 is slid in the direction
of the needle rod 37 until the needle clamping part 8' can be
folded open.
All the above-described embodiments, together, have in
common that a needle clamping part 8, 8' - that is movable in

whatever way, in particular, pivotable - is secured in clamping
position by means of a fixing element 14, in which case the
fixing element 14 is supported so as to be rotatable or
pivotable about a rotational axis or pivot axis 16 or 13, said
axis coinciding with the longitudinal central axis of the
needle or being oriented parallel thereto. As a result of this,
simple and rapid handling is possible.
A quick-release clamping holder for a sewing needle,
embroidery needle or the like has a needle receptacle 2 on
which a needle clamping part 8 is preferably pivotally
supported. A fixing element 14 is provided in order to clamp
and fix the needle clamping part 8 in place, whereby said
fixing element is pivotally or rotatably supported relative to
a longitudinal central axis 13 of the needle and thus can be
slid onto and off the needle clamping part 8. Actuation is
simple and safe.
