Abstract: A sewing machine needle clamp includes a seat and a threading element. The seat includes an assembly rod disposed at an upper portion, and an installation groove disposed at one side away from the assembly rod. The threading element includes an assembly section adhered in the installation groove, a threading section extended from the assembly section, and a plurality of thread holes disposed at the threading section. The hardness of the threading element is greater than the hardness of the seat to prevent the threading element from wear caused by sewing operations. In the sewing machine needle clamp of the present invention, the seat and the threading element are manufactured and formed separately, so as solve the issue of crookedness of machine needle holes caused by a thermal process in a conventional needle clamp.

Abstract: A direct drive cloth feeding mechanism of a sewing machine includes a cloth feeding structure, a vertical driving structure and a direction adjustment structure. The cloth feeding structure includes a swing shaft and a cloth feeding teeth member. The vertical driving structure includes an eccentric shaft connected to the cloth feeding teeth member, and an eccentric cam disposed on the eccentric shaft. The direction adjustment structure includes a stepping motor, and a rotating shaft driven by the stepping motor to rotate and switch between a first position and a second position. When the stepping motor directly drives the rotating shaft to the first position, the cloth feeding teeth member performs a forward feeding process. When the stepping motor directly drives the rotating shaft to the second position, the cloth feeding teeth member performs a reverse feeding process.

Abstract: A thread cutting mechanism is mounted on a sewing machine which includes a sewing platform. The thread cutting mechanism includes a driver assembly and a thread cutting assembly. The driver assembly includes a stepping motor, a swing lever pivotally connected to the stepping motor, and a pushing rod connected to the stepping motor and swing lever and driven jointly with the swing lever by the stepping motor to perform a back-and-forth process. The thread cutting mechanism is disposed on the sewing platform, and includes a thread hooking blade connected to and driven by the swing lever to move back-and-forth along a thread hooking path and to hook back a sewing thread, and a thread cutting blade disposed on the thread hooking path and for cutting the sewing thread when the thread hooking blade hooks back the sewing thread.

Abstract: A differential feeding mechanism of the front and rear translation gears of a transverse shuttle-type sewing machine can adjust the fabric feeding speeds of the front and rear translation gears. A main shaft coupled to the power source of the sewing machine is used to drive a front and a rear rocking shafts parallel to but not coaxial with the main shaft to swing up and down, which further drives the front and rear translation gears to feed fabric in. The front and rear rocking shafts are separately pivotedly coupled to front and rear swing arms to form a swing unit. Counter balance weights are pivotedly installed to the swing unit. Shift elements are pivotedly installed to the counter balance weights, which can control the ranges of the planar to-and fro travels of the front and rear translation gears and creates different effects of the sewing thread.

Abstract: A transverse longitudinal-cylinder sewing machine includes an automatic thread loosening device, a tension adjustment mechanism, an automatic thread cutting bi-directional solenoid device and a differential fabric driving teeth displacement control device. The differential fabric driving teeth displacement control device consists of a primary transmission mechanism, first and second push mechanisms, a rocking mechanism, first and second adjustment mechanisms that are co-axle, and first and second fabric driving mechanisms located inside a cylinder normal to the co-axle. The second push mechanism has a linkage arm coupled on the co-axle that includes a bearing and a cam. The cam can generate eccentric movements to form an independent driving operation. The axial direction of the cylinder is directed towards the operator so that the axis of the cylinder is normal to the entire transverse work station of the sewing machine.

Abstract: A structure of a motor driven driving mechanism of a sewing machine comprises a motor mounted on one side of the sewing machine and a driving mechanism disposed inside the frame of the sewing machine driven by the motor. A rotor shaft extends out of the cover, the rotor shaft comprises a connecting portion for connecting with the driving mechanism, and at least one resilient element is disposed on two sides of the connecting portion for connecting the connecting portion with the driving mechanism. Since the rotor shaft rotatably drives the driving mechanism, therefore frictional or ramming effects among the assembly parts can be eliminated or at least substantially reduced. Thus noise during operation and the damage to the mechanical parts can be effectively reduced.

Abstract: A needle guard mechanism for sewing machines aims at stabilizing needles during lowering for stitching operation to prevent needle wobbling caused by high speed motion thereby to avoid the needles from breaking or skipping. The needle guard mechanism adopts an independent design to adjust needle lowering and lifting time separately. The mechanism includes a needle guard and a transmission mechanism. The needle guard consists of a movable member, a front needle guard straddled on the movable member and a rear needle guard fastened to the movable member. The transmission mechanism provides a force to drive the movable member to move reciprocally so that the front needle guard swings in the opposite direction against the reciprocal motion thereby it moves close to the rear needle guard to hold the lowering needles steadily to prevent needle wobbling.

Abstract: An automatic thread cutting apparatus for sewing machines to cut off a thread and hold the remaining portion of bottom yarns after sewing operation is completed includes a thread cutter, a linkage mechanism and a driver. The thread cutter includes a cutting blade and an upper and a lower fixed blade. The cutting blade has a first cutting section and a second cutting section. When the driver provides power to drive the linkage mechanism, the cutting blade is swung between the upper and lower fixed blades. The thread is cut off by the first cutting section and the bottom yarns are cut off by the second cutting section and held for use in the successive sewing operation without the need of redoing yarn threading.
