Abstract: Disclosed is a sewing machine having a pattern selecting device including a pattern selecting dial and an electronic indicator for indicating a pattern selected by the pattern selecting device. More particularly, the pattern selecting device includes a mode switch 2 which is rotated by a pattern selecting dial 5 and has a plurality of switches Sw arranged in coaxial circles, a plurality of projections 2c arranged in coaxial circles, and an electronic indicator 10. A pattern is optionally selected by the projections 2c and switches Sw which are turned on in optional combination by rotation of the mode switch 2, and the selected pattern is indicated at the electronic indicator 10.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electric press having a substantially airtight casing containing therein a drive device for reciprocatingly moving a ram relative to a work positioned on a base to press the work, and a device for exhausting the dusts produced within the casing from a room where the electric press is located to the outside into open air through a pipe connected to the casing, the electric press comprising dust exhausting means including at least two openings provided at the casing thereof, one of the openings being of a relatively small diameter to be used in connection with an exhauster of a normal level of exhausting ability and the other of the openings being of a relatively large diameter to be used in connection with an exhauster of a relatively low level of exhausting ability. Further the casing is divided into an upper portion and a lower portion, and the upper portion is detachably mounted to said lower portion.
