DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(12) In the appended figures, corresponding elements will be identified by the same numeral references.

(13) FIG. 1 shows schematically an exploded view of a rotary hook 1 with a horizontal axis “α” of rotation, of the prior art in which only the elements relevant to the present description have been identified by numeral references: a hook body 2, comprising a cylindrical cavity 11 which, in the example shown, has a central hole 17 (FIG. 2) suitable to receive a shaft (omitted for the sake of simplicity of the graphic representation) from which the hook 1 receives motion; in a different embodiment (of which the graphical representation is omitted), the shaft is integral with the hook 1; a basket 6, free to rotate within the cylindrical cavity 11 to which it is constrained by a rib 14, formed on the outer surface of the basket 6 and comprising: a well 18 of the basket 6 in which is housed the bobbin case 8 complete with bobbin 4, an inner diameter 19 delimiting said well 18 of the basket 6 in which fits the external diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, a projection 21 on the inner diameter 19 of said well 18 of the basket 6, that coupling with the guide 22 (in the figures are indicated with 22 the edges of said guide) on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 allows the angular reference of the bobbin case for the correct mounting of the bobbin case 8 in the basket 6, a possible post 23 into which the hole 24 of the shaft 25 (FIG. 2) of the bobbin case 8 is inserted; a race 10, formed in the inside wall of the cylindrical cavity 11 of the hook body 2 and delimited by two plane surfaces parallel with each other and by a cylindrical surface perpendicular to the plane ones, in which the rib 14 of the basket 6 engages to prevent the axial and radial translation of the basket 6 in the cylindrical cavity 11, but leaving it free to rotate; a bobbin case 8 housed in the well 18 of the basket 6, complete with latch slide 15 for the axial constraint of the bobbin case 8 on the basket 6 to prevent accidental disassembly during sewing, latch lever 16 that with the leverage created on latch slide 15 allows the operator to release the latch slide 15, and herewith the bobbin case 8, from its axial constraint on the basket 6, allowing the removal of the bobbin case 8, and with a tension spring 9 to give tension to the bobbin thread (of which the graphical representation is omitted) wound on the bobbin 4 housed inside the bobbin case 8. There is present also the guide 22 on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 and parallel to the axis “α”, which coupling with the projection 21 on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 allows the angular reference for the correct mounting of the bobbin case 8 in the basket 6. The mounting of the bobbin case 8 in the basket 6 occurs trough a free translation along the axis “α” of the bobbin case 8, at a coupling with play and after that guide 22 on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 and parallel to the axis “α”, has been rotated until the angular correspondence with the projection 21 on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6; accidental disassembly is prevented by the axial constraint created by the latch slide 15 that engages on the basket 6; a bobbin 4, on which is wound the bobbin thread (not shown), is housed in the bobbin case 8 and is constrained inside the basket 6 by the mounting of the bobbin case 8 in the basket 6.

(14) FIG. 2 shows schematically the rotary hook 1 of FIG. 1, of the prior art, assembled and sectioned through a plane passing through its axis of rotation “α”; visible in FIG. 2 are the hook body 2 comprising the cylindrical cavity 11, the rib 14 of the basket 6, the race 10 of the hook body in which the rib 14 of the basket 6 is engaged, and the central hole 17 of the cylindrical cavity 11 able to accommodate a shaft (omitted for the sake of simplicity of the graphic representation) from which the hook 1 receives motion; in a different embodiment, (not shown), on the other hand, the shaft can be also integral with the hook 1, further are also shown the bobbin case 8 and the bobbin 4. The same section used for FIG. 2, is also used for the other Figures, with the exception of FIGS. 7, 16 and 18, which are perpendicular and are made according to the section line A-A of FIG. 2. Finally, FIG. 15 is made on a section which in horizontal plan is slightly counter-clockwise rotated with respect to the section A-A, to show the elastic means in correspondence with the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6, where said diameter 19 is developed for its entire height, up to the top edge of the basket.

(15) The rotary hook 1 object of the present invention comprises means suitable to create a friction between the bobbin case 8 and the basket 6, such as to annul the plays between bobbin case 8 and basket 6, preventing the consequent vibration and noisiness.

(16) In a preferred embodiment of a rotary hook 1 according to the invention, schematically described in FIGS. 3-7 and 13, the means able to create such friction comprise at least one elastic means integral with the basket 6 of the hook 1, which can:

(17) A) Be constituted by an annular elastic means 30 (in its most simple embodiment it is an O-ring) housed in a circular groove 31 formed in the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 (FIG. 3), which is deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the outer diameter 20 of said bobbin case 8. That elastic means 30 may have different shapes and be made from different materials. Such variations fall within the modifications of detail within the reach of competence of a person skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of the invention itself. By way of non-limiting example, some examples of realization of said elastic means are depicted in top view (FIG. 13), where the first (30a) can also be constituted by a well-known O-ring made of rubber, while the followings (30b, 30c, 30d, 30e) are possible alternative configurations of an elastic metal wire (preferably made of spring steel). Through appropriate form of said elastic means is also possible to realize protrusions (32) towards the outside , which, matching with appropriate niches on the diameter of the circular groove 31 on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6, are constraining angularly said elastic means and prevent it from rotating inside said circular groove 31.

(18) B) Be constituted by an annular elastic means 40 (in its most simple embodiment it is an O-ring) housed in a circular groove 41 formed in the post of the basket (FIG. 4) which is deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the inner diameter of the hole 24 of the shaft 25 of said bobbin case 8.

(19) C) Be constituted by two or more annular elastic means 50 (in the simplest realization they are O-rings) housed in respective circular grooves 52 formed in the post 23 of the basket 6 (FIG. 5) which are deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the inner diameter of the hole 24 of the shaft 25 of said bobbin case 8.

(20) D) Be constituted by one or more means 60, 61 of material that is elastic to compression and fixed (for example, stuck or glued or affixed as coating) on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6, which are deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the outer diameter 20 of said bobbin case. In FIG. 6 are represented, by way of example, but not limiting, respectively two cylindrical means 60 embedded in respective seats formed on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 and two means of elastic material of rectangular shape 61 glued on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6.

(21) E) Be constituted by one or more means 70 of material that is elastic to compression and which go to constitute a projection 21 on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 for the angular coupling with the guide 22 on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, which are deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the edges of said guide 22 on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8. FIG. 7 represents a section A-A (see FIG. 2) perpendicular to that used for all other FIGS. 2-6 and 8-13.

(22) In another preferred embodiment of a rotary hook 1 according to the invention, the means for creating such friction comprise at least one elastic means integral with the bobbin case 8 of the hook 1. Said at least one elastic means integral with the bobbin case 8 can be constituted by one or more means 60 of material that is elastic to compression and fixed (for example, stuck or glued or affixed as coating) on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, which are deformed while mounting the basket 6 by the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6. In FIG. 6 is represented, by way of example, but not limiting, a means of elastic material of rectangular shape 61 glued on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 (it is the same graphical representation as already previously used, for the fact that the same means can either be glued on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 or on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8). In another preferred embodiment of a rotary hook 1 according to the invention, said at least one elastic means integral with the bobbin case 8 can be constituted by a coating of non-metallic material of the entire bobbin case 8 or only the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 for its entire circumference and throughout its development in height , or even of only a portion of the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 , formed by the development for the whole circumference of only a portion of the height, preferably comprising the lower edge 80 (FIG. 8). This latter embodiment can be easily obtained by partial immersion of the bobbin case in the coating bath and also brings with it the advantage of covering also part of the inner diameter of the bobbin case 8 in the area where it is coupled with the bobbin 4, thereby reducing the noise generated also by the play between bobbin case 8 and bobbin 4.

(23) In other embodiments FIGS. 14-19, said at least one elastic means integral with the bobbin case 8 can be constituted by one or more elastic means protruding from the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, which are deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 or by a niche formed in said inner diameter 19.

(24) FIG. 14 shows in section, by way of example, but not limiting, an elastic means 130 (for example of metal sheet) that is fixed to the bobbin case 8 (for example by a screw 133) and protrudes from the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 and creates a pressure on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 or on a niche 131 formed in said inner diameter 19, and which is facilitated during the mounting operation by a chamfer 132 realized on the top edge of the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6. FIG. 15 shows the sole bobbin case 8 (without basket 6) in the same embodiment in a side view from B, as shown in FIG. 14.

(25) In other embodiments, said at least one elastic means integral with the bobbin case 8 can be constituted by one or more elastic means made of a single piece on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case, which are possibly equipped with a protrusion from said outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case and which are deformed while mounting the bobbin case 8 by the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 or by a niche formed in said inner diameter 19.

(26) FIG. 16 shows in section, by way of example, but not limiting, an elastic means 140 made of a single piece on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, 8b, which comprises a protrusion 143 from the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, which creates a pressure on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 or on a niche 141 that is formed in said inner diameter 19 and is facilitated in the mounting by a chamfer 142 made on the protrusion 143 on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8. FIG. 17 shows the sole bobbin case 8 (without basket 6) in the same embodiment in a side view from C, as indicated in FIG. 16.

(27) FIG. 18 shows in section, by way of examples, but not limiting, more elastic means 150 made in a single piece on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8, which create a pressure on a protrusion 151 formed on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 and which are facilitated in the mounting by a chamfer 152 made on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 and similar to that of FIG. 10. For simplicity of construction it is possible to realize the protrusion 151 on the inner diameter 19 of the well 18 of the basket 6 in circular form (i.e. for the entire development of the diameter 19) and make an relief 153 on the outer diameter 20 of the bobbin case 8 for the whole arc of circumference where the elastic means 150 are not present. FIG. 19 shows the sole bobbin case 8 (without basket 6) in the same embodiment in a side view from D, as shown in FIG. 18.
