On the side of the speed controller bottom shell away from the mounting bracket, a speed controller housing and a speed controller top cover are sequentially fitted with self-tapping screws. The speed controller housing has, from top to bottom, six chambers arranged in sequence: a first chamber, a second chamber, a third chamber, a fourth chamber, a fifth chamber, and a sixth chamber. These chambers are interconnected. The second and fourth chambers have the same diameter, while the diameters of the first, third, fifth, and sixth chambers are all larger than those of the second and fourth chambers. A lever is vertically installed inside each of the six chambers, and the lower end of the lever is mounted on the sewing machine foot pedal via a foot pedal lever. The speed controller housing is equipped with a grating control mechanism for speed adjustment detection.

[0006] As a further aspect of the present invention: the grating control mechanism includes an internal hexagonal flat-head screw and a cylindrical pin; a first sliding groove is formed on the side wall of the speed controller housing where the third, fourth, and fifth chambers are located; a circuit board is installed on the upper end of the side wall of the speed controller housing near the speed controller cover; a grating plate reader and a magnetic induction element are installed on the side of the circuit board away from the speed controller housing; a grating plate is vertically slidably connected in the second sliding groove of the magnetic induction element; grating plate supports for driving the grating plate to move up and down are installed on both sides of the grating plate; a magnet mounting hole corresponding to the magnetic induction element is formed at the upper end of the grating plate support; and a magnetic induction element is installed inside the magnet mounting hole. The magnet is used in conjunction with the components. A slider is provided at the lower end of the side wall of the grating plate bracket near the speed controller housing. The grating plate bracket, grating plate, and slider are connected together by hexagonal flat head screws. A pin hole is provided on the pull rod. A positioning sleeve is fitted on the side wall of the pull rod. The positioning sleeve is slidably disposed inside the fourth chamber. The cylindrical pin passes through the positioning sleeve, the pin hole, and the first sliding groove on the side wall of the speed controller housing and is connected to the grating plate bracket, grating plate, and slider by hexagonal flat head screws. A first resistance component is provided at the upper end of the pull rod. A second resistance component is provided inside the second and third chambers. A third resistance component is provided inside the fifth and sixth chambers.

[0007] As a further embodiment of the present invention: the first resistance component includes a pull rod inner compression spring, the top of the pull rod has a groove, the pull rod inner compression spring is installed in the groove at the top of the pull rod, a probe is installed at the end of the pull rod inner compression spring away from the pin hole, and a retaining ring for preventing the probe from being completely ejected is installed at the upper end of the pull rod.

[0008] As a further embodiment of the present invention: the second resistance component includes a sliding sleeve, which is slidably disposed inside the second chamber and slidably sleeved on the side wall of the pull rod. A stop block for preventing the sliding sleeve from moving upward is provided between the first chamber and the second chamber.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This invention separates the speed controller from the scope of electronic control schemes and uses mature grating ruler technology, which makes the speed controller have good control performance and can generate stable and high-precision control signals. The grating plate has a large number of parallel slits of equal width and spacing, with a spacing of 1µm, similar to a ruler with µm-level precision. The optical reading head can effectively identify the grating plate and obtain relevant parameters through photoelectric effect.

[0011] This invention uses a sewing machine foot pedal to move a foot pedal lever, which in turn moves a pull rod, which in turn moves a positioning sleeve. The positioning sleeve, via a cylindrical pin, moves a slider, a grating sheet support, and a grating sheet. The grating sheet moves along the detection groove of the grating sheet reader head, which generates a control signal. Based on the moving distance, speed, and direction of the grating sheet, a stable and reliable control signal can be generated.

[0012] This invention provides a practical and effective technical support solution for the standardization of sewing machine foot pedals, thereby solving the problem of large differences in sewing machine foot pedals. Attached Figure Description
