  • Publication number: 20210404100
    Abstract: Provided is a sewing machine capable of positioning feed dogs with a sufficient distance below the upper surface of a throat plate when the feed dogs are retracted. Feed dogs 3 protrude and retract from a throat plate 1. A horizontal feed drive unit 8 converts the rotation of a drive shaft 7 into a reciprocating motion in the horizontal direction and transmits the horizontal reciprocating motion to the feed dogs 3. A vertical drive unit 9 converts the rotation of the drive shaft 7 into a reciprocating motion in the vertical direction and transmits the vertical reciprocating motion to the feed dogs 3. A vertical position changing part moves turn-back points P at both ends of a forward path and a return path when the feed dogs 3 reciprocate in the horizontal direction below the throat plate 1.
