    摘要: In image figure processing method and apparatus, an original picture, in which inner spaces of readable outlines are painted with desired colors, is read out by an image scanner to extract boundary lines defining closed areas in the original picture. Subsequently, the average value of brightness values in each closed area is calculated for each of R, G and B components, and the average value is compared with a data table value stored in a memory to identify the attribute of each closed area. Thereafter, embroidery data are prepared to embroider the respective closed areas in the original picture so that the colors and shapes thereof match those of the original picture.

    摘要: In an embroidery data preparing device, after an embroidery figure is blocked and a stitch order for the blocks is determined, it is judged whether the stitch terminal end portions of continuous embroidery blocks are adjacent to one another. If the stitch terminal end portions are not adjacent to one another, needle location points for mat-type stitches are calculated from a stitch start side. If the stitch terminal end portions are adjacent to one another, needle location points for mat-type stitches are calculated from a stitch terminal side for the block. Accordingly, mat-type stitch needle location lines which are obtained as virtual lines over plural blocks by needle points for mat-type stitches can be made continuous over the blocks even when the stitch advancing direction is different between the blocks.

    摘要翻译: 在刺绣数据准备装置中,在刺绣图形被阻挡并且确定块的针脚顺序之后,判断连续刺绣块的针脚末端部是否彼此相邻。 如果针脚末端部彼此不相邻,则从缝合开始侧计算垫型针迹的针位置点。 如果线圈端子端部彼此相邻,则针对块型针脚的针位置点由块的针脚端子侧计算。 因此,即使在块之间的线圈前进方向不同的情况下,也可以在块上连续地在块多个块之上作为虚拟线作为虚线而获得垫型针迹位置线。

    摘要: A stitch data producing system scans an original pattern by an image scanner to acquire image data and segments the original pattern into a plurality of embroidering regions and determines distances from the periphery of a set of pixels included in each embroidering region to each of the pixels, i.e., the depths of the pixels by a CPU. The stitch data producing system produces stitch data suitable for embroidering a comparatively large, substantially circular embroidering region when the sum of the distances is large and produces stitch data suitable for embroidering an elongate embroidering region when the sum of the distances is small. Thus, the stitch data producing system automatically produces stitch data for carrying out a stitching method, such as a satin stitching method, a fill stitching method, a running stitching method or such, suitable for embroidering each embroidering region.

    摘要: The data producing apparatus for producing a produced data set displays data sizes of one or more sets of previously stored data stored in the memory of the stitch data producing apparatus and a shortage capacity. Based on the size of the shortage capacity, the data producing apparatus automatically identifies a smallest one of the sets of previously stored data which can be erased to allow for storing the produced data set. The set of the previously stored data can alternately or also be selected based on ages of the previously stored data sets and/or the frequency of use of the previously stored data sets.

    摘要: An embroidery data creating system capable of creating embroidery data that enables an operator having no knowledge of stitch characteristics to form an embroidered pattern having a beautiful appearance. The operator scans an original picture with an image scanner to obtain image data and coordinates of points defining a closed embroidering region are extracted from the image data. An end point, e.g., the lowermost point among the points specified by the extracted coordinates, is specified, the rightmost point and the leftmost point among the points specified by the extracted coordinates are determined, a stitching direction is determined on the basis of the greatest distance of the distance between the rightmost point and a boundary line passing through the end point and perpendicular to the embroidering direction and the distance between the leftmost point and the boundary line, and embroidery data is created on the basis of the stitching direction and the coordinates of the boundary points.

    摘要: An original picture of a pattern is scanned with an image scanner to obtain bitmap image data. A border line defining the original picture is extracted. A closed region enclosed by the border line is subjected to a linearizing process. Shape-defining line data is produced for the closed region and stitch data for entirely covering the closed region with zigzag stitches when the closed region can completely be linearized by a number of sequential pixel deleting cycles not greater than a given number. Border line data is produced and stitch data for entirely covering the closed region with satin stitches is automatically produced when the closed region could not be completely linearized by the number of sequential pixel deleting cycles within the given number. Thus, stitch data for satisfactorily embroidering a pattern consisting of a plurality of partial patterns respectively having different widths can be readily and automatically produced from the original picture of the pattern.
