ABSTRACT:
In a sewing machine, a presser foot lifting mechanism provides two springs, a first spring the compression of which can be changed by a solenoid actuated coil linkage and a second spring the compression of which can be changed by an operator's knee-action for lowering a presser foot. An operation lever rotated by an operator's knee-action controls the timing of solenoid action. A positional difference or gap is provided for the operation lever between a "solenoid on" position and a "first spring off" position, so that an operator can rotate the operation lever without feeling the resisting force of the first spring.
