10. A convenient line changing method for a small circular knitting machine, characterized in that: The following steps are also included: S1: The motor (34) drives the first gear (35) to rotate, the first gear (35) drives the second gear (36) to rotate, the second gear (36) drives the support seat (37), the electric push rod 1 (371) and the support shaft 2 (381) to rotate, and the direction of the support shaft 2 (381) is adjusted; S2: The second electric push rod (39) pushes the push plate (391), so that the push plate (391) moves to the top of the pressure rod (222), the first electric push rod (371) pushes down the connecting plate (38) and the push plate (391), the push plate (391) presses down the pressure rod (222), the pressure rod (222) presses down the second support block (221), so that the second support block (221) and the first support shaft (24) rotate downward with the connection between the second support block (221) and the first support block (22) as the rotation axis, and the return spring (231) is stretched; S3: The first electromagnet (241) and the second electromagnet (251) are both powered off and lose their magnetism. The bobbin (25) and the second electromagnet (251) slide downward into the guide rail (27) due to the inclination of the first support shaft (24), and then slide out through the guide rail (27). Finally, the push plate (391) is reset, the second support shaft (381) rises and resets to one end of the second conveyor belt (32), and the reset spring (231) pulls the first support shaft (24) back to a horizontal state. S4: Put the full-line bobbins (25) into the narrow conveyor belt 1 (31) in sequence, and convey them to the conveyor belt 2 (32) through the conveyor belt 1 (31), and the latter bobbin (25) pushes the former bobbin (25) to be inserted into the supporting shaft 2 (381); S5: The electric push rod 1 (371) pushes down the connecting plate (38), so that the supporting shaft 2 (381) and the supporting shaft 1 (24) are aligned flush, the electric push rod 2 (39) pushes the push plate (391), and the push plate (391) pushes the bobbin (25), so that the bobbin (25) is inserted into the supporting shaft 1 (24), the electromagnet 1 (241) and the electromagnet 2 (251) are both energized to generate magnetism, and are magnetically adsorbed and connected, so that the bobbin (25) will not fall off the supporting shaft 1 (24) while rotating, and finally the supporting shaft 2 (381) rises and resets to one end of the conveyor belt 2 (32) to complete the line change; S6: Similarly, all the thread spools (25) in the support ring (21) can be quickly and automatically changed in the same way.
