  • Publication number: 20080271659
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a needle holder of multiple needles, the needle holder is connected with a needle bar on one end and equipped with a needle receiver with several open needle accommodating parts on the other end, so that it is convenient to process and manufacture. With cooperation of a needle retainer, the needle accommodating part of the needle receiver can become a closed structure to allow the ends of the needles to insert and be fixed on position by a needle fastening member on the needle retainer. Wherein, due to the open structure of the whole needle receiver of the needle holder, the manufacture is more precise and accurate, in addition, the processing, maintenance and replacement are more convenient, so as to become a structure of high precision and easy manufacture.

  • Patent number: 7357089
    Abstract: The present invention is an automatic thread cutting device for a sewing machine, which is equipped with an automatic thread cutting device on the position that a needle thread passes through. The automatic thread cutting device comprises a main body that is equipped with a worm gear rod of active piece actuated by a motor of driving piece, wherein the active piece is engaged with a worm gear denture of passive piece that motivates a thread hooking member, a knife base with a knife is fixed on the main body and cooperates with the thread hooking member to cut a needle thread. Thus the size of the whole device can be minimized effectively to fit in the small space of a sewing machine, and then the objective of effort-saving and fast thread cutting is attained.

  • Patent number: 6843189
    Abstract: A sewing machine includes a thread tension adjusting device, and a thread tension releasing device. The thread tension adjusting device includes a thread press member formed with a release extension portion. The thread tension releasing device presses the release extension portion of the thread press member to pivot the thread press member so as to move the thread clamping portion of the thread press member. Thus, the thread tension releasing device directly presses the release extension portion of the thread press member, so as to release the tension of the sewing thread, so that the tension of the sewing thread can be released easily and rapidly.
