[0028] A first cylinder 5 is provided on the front side of the first mounting plate 4. The cylinder body of the first cylinder 5 is obliquely mounted on the front side of the first mounting plate 4 through the first cylinder mounting bracket 6. The drive rod of the first cylinder 5 is provided with a hook 7. The hook 7 is fixedly connected to the drive rod of the first cylinder 5 through a hook connecting block 8. The front end of the hook 7 is provided with a hooking part 7a, which hooks the surface line.
[0029] The lower end of the first mounting plate 4 has an inclined connecting rod portion 4a. A connecting seat 9, which guides the movement of the hook 7, is fixedly mounted at the end of the connecting rod portion 4a. The connecting seat 9 has a hook mounting portion 9a and a suction mounting portion 9b.

[0030] After sewing is completed, the drive rod of the first cylinder 5 extends, causing the hook 7 to move diagonally downwards, so that the hook part 7a of the hook 7 hooks the top thread between the needle and the fabric. Then, the drive rod of the first cylinder 5 retracts, causing the hook 7 to move diagonally upwards, and the hook part 7a pulls the top thread back. The hook part 7a cooperates with the lower surface of the pressure plate 10 to clamp the top thread. The thread end is fixed on the hook part 7a, which can prevent bird's nests when starting the next stitch.
[0031] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the thread cutting mechanism includes a second fixed seat 12 fixed to the front side of the sewing machine housing 1, a second cylinder 13 vertically mounted on the second fixed seat 12, a second connecting plate 14 mounted on the drive rod of the second cylinder 13, a third connecting plate 15 connected to the front end of the second connecting plate 14, and a second mounting plate 16 provided on the front side of the third connecting plate 15.
[0032] The second connecting plate 14 has a second adjusting groove 14a and a third adjusting groove 14b, which are arranged in parallel. A second screw passes through the second adjusting groove 14a and is connected to the third connecting plate 15, and a third screw passes through the third adjusting groove 14b and is connected to the third connecting plate 15. By adjusting the position of the second screw in the second adjusting groove 14a and the position of the third screw in the third adjusting groove 14b, the rotation angle of the third connecting plate 15 can be adjusted.
[0033] A first mounting base 17 is installed at the front end of the second fixed base 12. A first connecting block 18 is slidably installed at the front end of the first mounting base 17. The top of the first connecting block 18 is fixedly connected to the second connecting plate 14. A first guide rail 19 is vertically installed at the front end of the first mounting base 17. A first slider that cooperates with the first guide rail 19 is installed on the rear side of the first connecting block 18. The first connecting block 18 can move up and down along the first guide rail 19. The drive rod of the second cylinder 13 drives the second connecting plate 14 to move up and down along the first guide rail 19. The tangent mechanism can avoid interference with other mechanisms.
[0034] A third mounting plate 20 is slidably mounted on the front side of the second mounting plate 16. A second guide rail 21 is obliquely mounted on the front side of the second mounting plate 16. A second slider that cooperates with the second guide rail 21 is provided on the rear side of the third mounting plate 20.

[0035] A third cylinder 22 is provided obliquely downward on the front side of the second mounting plate 16. The cylinder body of the third cylinder 22 is fixed to the front side of the second mounting plate 16 by the third cylinder mounting bracket 23. The drive rod of the third cylinder 22 is fixedly connected to the third mounting plate 20. The drive rod of the third cylinder 22 can drive the third mounting plate 20 to move obliquely upward and downward along the second slide rail.
[0036] The third mounting plate 20 is provided with a rotatable cutting handle 24. The third mounting plate 20 is rotatably mounted with a first mounting block 26 via a first rotating shaft 25. A second mounting block 27 is mounted on the lower end of the first mounting block 26. The lower end of the first mounting block 26 has an upper recess 26a, and the upper end of the second mounting block 27 has a lower recess 27a. A space for mounting the cutting handle 24 is formed between the upper recess 26a and the lower recess 27a. The end of the cutting handle 24 is provided with a cutter 28. The cutter 28 is mounted at a certain angle to the end of the cutting handle 24, so that the blade of the cutter 28 is close to the surface line and accurately cuts the surface line.
[0037] The third mounting plate 20 is provided with a fourth adjustment groove 20a, and a fourth screw 29 is installed in the fourth adjustment groove 20a. A fifth screw 30 is installed on the first mounting block 26. One end of the tension spring 31 is connected to the fourth screw 29, and the other end of the tension spring 31 is connected to the fifth screw 30. When the third cylinder 22 drives the cutting handle 24 to perform the cutting operation, the cutting handle 24 will pull the tension spring 31 to generate a restoring force. Under the action of the restoring force, the cutting handle 24 tends to rotate to the right with the first rotating shaft 25, so that the cutting blade 28 at the end of the cutting handle 24 is in close contact with the surface thread between the hook 7 and the needle and cuts the surface thread.
[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, the thread control mechanism includes a third fixed seat 32 fixed to the upper end of the sewing machine housing 1. An extension seat 33 is installed at the right end of the third fixed seat 32. A thread control rod 34 is rotatably installed on the extension seat 33. A thread take-up part 34a is made at the bottom of the thread control rod 34. The thread take-up part 34a has a through hole for the top thread to pass through.
[0039] A fourth cylinder 35 is mounted on the third fixed base 32. The drive shaft of the fourth cylinder 35 is connected to a first connecting member 37. A spring 36 is fitted on the drive shaft of the fourth cylinder 35. One end of the spring 36 abuts against the cylinder body of the fourth cylinder 35, and the other end abuts against the first connecting member 37. One end of the first connecting member 37 is connected to the drive shaft of the fourth cylinder 35, and the other end of the first connecting member 37 is rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting member 38. The other end of the second connecting member 38 is rotatably connected to one end of the third connecting member 39, and the other end of the second connecting member 38 and the third connecting member 39 form an angle. A second rotating shaft 40 is provided at the other end of the third connecting member 39. The second rotating shaft 40 is rotatably mounted in the extension base 33, and the control rod 34 is fixedly mounted on the end of the second rotating shaft 40.
[0040] The drive rod of the fourth cylinder 35 extends, causing the first connecting member 37 to move to the right. The first connecting member 37 pushes the second connecting member 38 to rotate, reducing the angle between the second connecting member 38 and the third connecting member 39. The second connecting member 38 then drives the third connecting member 39 to rotate to the right, and the second rotating shaft 40 drives the control rod 34 to rotate to the left, lowering the control rod 34, at which point the top thread is in a relaxed state. The drive rod of the fourth cylinder 35 retracts, causing the first connecting member 37 to move to the left. The angle between the second connecting member 38 and the third connecting member 39 increases, causing the second connecting member 38 to rotate the third connecting member 39 to rotate to the left. The second rotating shaft 40 then drives the control rod 34 to rotate to the right, raising the control rod 34, at which point the top thread is in a taut state.
[0041] When sewing begins, the second cylinder 13 drives the second mounting plate 16 to be positioned downwards, at which time the thread end on the needle is clamped between the hook part 7a and the lower surface of the pressure plate 10.
[0042] Before the first stitch is sewn, the fourth cylinder 35 in the thread control mechanism drives the thread control lever 34 to lower, loosening a small amount of top thread. After the first stitch is sewn, the third cylinder 22 in the thread cutting mechanism drives the cutter 28 at the end of the thread cutting handle 24 to cut the top thread between the thread hook 7 and the needle. The suction pipe 11 in the hooking mechanism picks up the cut thread end, and then the fourth cylinder 35 in the thread control mechanism drives the thread control lever 34 to raise, tightening a small amount of top thread. After the sewing is completed, the first cylinder 5 in the hooking mechanism drives the rod to extend, causing the hooking part 7a of the thread hook 7 to hook the top thread on the needle. Then the first cylinder 5 drives the rod to retract, fixing the top thread between the hooking part 7a and the lower surface of the pressure plate 10. The above steps are repeated when sewing the next piece of fabric.
[0043] The preferred embodiment of this utility model has been described, and various changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art will not depart from the scope of this utility model.
