Abstract

The industrial sewing machine includes: a web server, based on a request from a web browser installed on an information terminal, providing the web browser with an operation screen simulating an operation panel, and receiving operation data generated by operating the operation screen; and a sewing machine control part, controlling a sewing machine operating part based on the operation data.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An industrial sewing machine comprising:
a web server, based on a request from a web browser installed on an information terminal, providing the web browser with an operation screen simulating an operation panel for producing a sewn product, and receiving operation data generated by operating the operation screen; and a sewing machine control part, controlling a sewing machine operating part to perform a sewing operation based on the operation data, wherein the web server provides the web browser with a login screen for selecting a specific process from a plurality of processes for producing the sewn product and inputting a login ID corresponding to the selected specific process, and, based on a request generated by operating the login screen, provides the operation screen, wherein the plurality of processes comprise a sewing process, an inspection process or an adjustment process.

2 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
the operation data is transmitted from the information terminal to the sewing machine control part via the web server.

3 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a communication device, receiving the operation data.

4 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 3 , wherein,
in a case where the communication device receives the operation data via a cable, a control command that causes the sewing machine operating part to operate is output from the sewing machine control part; and in a case where the communication device receives the operation data wirelessly, an operation of the sewing machine operating part is prohibited.

5 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
the web server customizes the operation screen based on a process for producing a sewn product.

6 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
the web server customizes the operation screen based on user data pertaining to a user.

7 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 5 , wherein,
due to operation of the operation screen, customization data for customizing the operation screen is generated; and the industrial sewing machine further comprises a storage part that stores the customization data.

8 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 6 , wherein,
due to operation of the operation screen, customization data for customizing the operation screen is generated; and the industrial sewing machine further comprises a storage part that stores the customization data.

9 . The industrial sewing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
user data pertaining to a user is acquired from an external server shared in a sewing factory.
