ABSTRACT:
In a conventional sewing machine, as the take-up lever is driven by the take-up lever crank, the take-up lever does not keep its uppermost position during the feed motion of a work fabric. Accordingly, the length of the thread path extending from the thread supply source to the eye of the needle varies remarkably during feed motion, and thus the needle thread equivalent to the amount consumed by stitch feed motion cannot be extracted from the supply source. In the present automatic needle thread supply control system, during a specific period from a time before finishing of each feed motion to a time when the needle reaches the throat plate, the take-up lever is held at its uppermost position. During a given period corresponding to the comparatively latter half of the specified period, thread supply stopping is released, whereby the needle thread equivalent to the amount consumed by each stitch feed motion can be extracted certainly from the supply source toward the take-up lever. The present thread supply control system comprises, at least, thread securing means or driving means, thread supply stopping means and mechanical control means.
