ABSTRACT:
A tufting machine employs a manual crank and gearing on one side of a support plate for driving a rotary eccentric and a crank arm on the other side. The rotary eccentric causes orbital motion of the upper end of a body, and a hollow needle fixed to the body is guided in a stationary ring fixed to the support plate. The crank arm is connected by a link to a slide block guided for movement longitudinally of the body. A solid needle fixed to the slide block has a lower end which moves above and below the yarn entrance window near the lower end of the hollow needle. A grip handle at the upper end of the support plate enables the device to be manually tilted to control the length of the stitch.
