Obviously, the described embodiments are only one embodiment of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this application provides a feeding device for a sewing machine, including a stitch length control motor 1, an eccentric connecting rod 2 connected to the output shaft of the stitch length control motor 1, a stitch length switching connector 3 connected to the other end of the eccentric connecting rod 2, a stitch length switching shaft 4 connected to the stitch length switching connector 3 and extending away from the stitch length control motor 1, a switcher assembly 5 connected at both ends to the stitch length switching shaft 4 and the feeding shaft 6 respectively, and a feed dog assembly connected to the far end of the feeding shaft 6. The feed dog assembly is connected to a feed dog lifting motor 7 via a feed dog lifting assembly. The rotation of the output shaft of the stitch length control motor 1 drives the eccentric connecting rod 2, the stitch length switching shaft 4, and the feeding shaft 6 in a coordinated manner, causing the feed dog assembly to move back and forth, thereby achieving the position adjustment of the feed dog 12 as detailed below; the rotation of the output shaft of the feed dog lifting motor 7 drives the feed dog lifting assembly connected to it to rotate, thereby causing the height of the feed dog assembly connected to it to change, thereby achieving the height adjustment of the feed dog 12. The switcher assembly 5 is used to control the sewing mode, stitch, and speed, and is an existing structure, which will not be described in detail here.

[0020] Specifically, the tooth holder assembly includes a tooth holder crank 14, one end of which is connected to the feed shaft 6. A tooth holder 13, on which a feed tooth 12 is mounted, is connected to the tooth holder crank 14. The feed tooth 12 is mounted on the tooth holder 13. The tooth holder crank 14 rotates with the feed shaft 6, that is, it rotates clockwise or counterclockwise along the feed shaft 6, thereby driving the tooth holder 13 connected to it to move back and forth, realizing the adjustment of the back and forth position of the feed tooth 12 mounted on the tooth holder 13.

[0021] The lifting tooth assembly includes a lifting tooth crank assembly 8 connected to a lifting tooth motor 7. One end of a lifting tooth shaft 9 is connected to the lifting tooth crank assembly 8, and the other end is connected to a lifting tooth crank 11. The lifting tooth crank 11 and a lifting tooth fork 10 are hinged together. The lifting tooth fork 10 swings circumferentially along the hinge axis. The other end of the lifting tooth fork 10 is fixed to one end of a tooth holder 13, and a feed tooth 12 is fixed on the tooth holder 13. The lifting tooth shaft 9 is parallel to the feed shaft 6. The lifting tooth fork 10 is used to adjust the lifting range of the feed tooth 12 during sewing. When the feed shaft 6 rotates, the tooth holder 13 moves back and forth, simultaneously causing the lifting tooth fork 10 connected to it to swing. The rotation of the lifting tooth shaft 9, through the lifting tooth crank 11, causes the lifting tooth fork 10, which is hinged to it, to swing, changing the height of the lifting tooth fork 10 from the fabric, thus adjusting the height of the feed tooth 12.

[0022] Specifically, the output shaft of the needle pitch control motor 1 is connected to the eccentric connecting rod 2, the eccentric connecting rod 2 is hinged to the needle pitch switching joint 3, one end of the needle pitch switching shaft 4 is connected to the switcher assembly 5 and the other end is connected to the needle pitch switching joint 3, one end of the feeding shaft 6 is connected to the switcher assembly 5 and the other end is connected to the tooth frame crank 14, the tooth frame crank 14 is connected to one end of the tooth frame 13, and the feeding tooth 12 is fixed on the tooth frame 13.

[0023] During the feeding process, the needle pitch control motor 1 drives the eccentric connecting rod 2 to rotate, the eccentric connecting rod 2 drives the needle pitch switching joint 3 to rotate, the needle pitch switching joint 3 drives the switcher assembly 5 to rotate through the needle pitch switching shaft 4, the switcher assembly 5 drives the tooth frame crank 14 to rotate through the feeding shaft 6, the tooth frame crank 14 drives the feeding tooth 12 on the tooth frame 13 to rotate, and adjusts the forward and backward movement of the feeding tooth 12.

[0024] During the tooth lifting motion, the tooth lifting motor 7 drives the tooth lifting crank assembly 8, which in turn drives the tooth lifting crank 11 via the tooth lifting shaft 9. The tooth lifting crank 11 drives the tooth lifting fork 10, which in turn drives the feeding tooth 12 on the tooth frame 13. The feeding tooth 12 moves up and down through the motor output.

[0025] The motor reverses to enable the sewing machine to perform reverse sewing.
