The invention belongs to the technical field of garment sewing overlock machines, and particularly discloses a household overlock
machine which comprises a base plate, a limiting
assembly, a thread feeding structure and a pressing
assembly, a rack is fixed to the right side of the top end of the base plate, a cross beam is transversely erected above the rack, a
machine head is installed at the lower left corner of the cross beam, and a pressing block is installed below the
machine head; a hand wheel is installed on the right side of the rack, and a limiting
assembly limiting rotation of the hand wheel is installed at the upper right corner of the base plate. According to the household overlock machine, a sleeve wound with a
cotton thread is connected to a limiting rod in a sleeving mode, a thread body of the
cotton thread penetrates through an
insertion hole in a sliding block and then enters a machine needle of a machine head through a first rotating wheel, a second rotating wheel and a guide block for sewing, the sliding block is shifted left and right along a rail in advance according to the
toughness of the thread, and then the sliding block is locked on a hole through a second bolt; therefore, tension for drawing the
cotton thread is increased or reduced in advance, twisting and knotting of the cotton thread are prevented, the problem that the thread body lacks limiting is solved, and the device is worthy of application and popularization.
