Textile machine clamping device includes a first arm comprising a moveable blade that moves inwardly relative to a compression surface and a second arm comprising a moveable blade that moves inwardly relative to a compression surface. Each of the moveable blades defines a resilient portion that compresses against an article of clothing positioned between the respective resilient portion and compression surface of each of the first arm and the second arm. The direction of travel of each of the first arm and the second arm as each of the arms is being translated into a compressed state is towards each other. In operation, the user may engage one portion of clothing between the resilient portion and compression surface of the first arm, pull taut on the article of clothing and then engage a second portion of clothing between the resilient portion and compression surface of the second arm.

It is a tensioning accessory for tubular device of embroidery machines, belonging to the industrial sector of the components of textile equipment intended to embroider certain areas of articles of clothing, and said tensioning accessory (1) forming a substantially longitudinal rectangular bulkhead (2), affixed through resilient extensions (3) with spring action below and tangentially to the body of the tubular channel (4), creating a spacer gap (5), which can be adjusted according to the necessary tension/stretch to be applied to the type of fabric/garment to be embroidered, adding a functional process for tubular pieces in which only the lining is subjected to tension when pulled, and not the material or article to be embroidered, allowing the application of embroidery in elastic, flexible, fragile and delicate materials.

An embroidery frame transport device includes a carriage, a guide portion, a rotation shaft, and a lock release lever including a first restricting portion and a contact portion. The lock release lever is configured to rotate to a first position and a second position around the rotation shaft. The first restricting portion contacts the coupling portion to restrict an embroidery frame from moving in a removing direction by moving to the first position when the embroidery frame is moved in a mounting direction in a process of mounting the coupling portion on the carriage. The contact portion contacts the coupling portion and presses the embroidery frame in the removing direction as a result of the lock release lever moving to a third position when the lock release lever is rotated in a releasing direction while the coupling portion is mounted on the carriage.

A cap frame includes a body member including an arc-shaped curved wall extending in a particular direction, an attaching portion connected to the body member, and a retaining member including a clamping portion having a plurality of protrusions aligned along the particular direction, and a facing portion. The attaching portion is removably attachable to a moving mechanism of an embroidery machine. In a state where the retaining member is attached to the body member, the clamping portion is elastically deformed in conformance with the curved wall and presses, toward the curved wall, a cap sandwiched between the curved wall and the clamping portion. The facing portion faces the curved wall of the body member. Each protrusion extends toward the curved wall from a leading end of the facing portion in a removing direction and faces a leading end of the curved wall of the body member in the removing direction.

A cap frame includes a body member including an arc-shaped curved wall extending in a particular direction, a retaining member including a clamping portion made of elastic material and first and second engagement portions disposed at end portions of the clamping portion in the particular direction, and an attaching portion. In a state where the retaining member is attached to the body member, the retaining member holds a cap between the retaining member itself and the body member. The clamping portion is elastically deformed in conformance with the curved wall and presses the cap toward the curved wall. The body member includes third and fourth engagement portions engageable with the first and second engagement portions, respectively, and first and second guide portions that define movable directions of the first and second engagement portions as first and second guide directions, respectively, and their opposite directions.
