A shiftable backing feed or shiftable needle assembly is utilized with a tufting machine having reciprocating needles and gauge parts for seizing or cutting yarns wherein yarn placement patterns can be utilized to tuft at different gauge densities while maintaining the same pattern sizes and appearance.

A control panel for motor vehicle includes a mount; a printed circuit board, which is fastened on the mount; a facade element, which is assembled on the mount and which covers the printed circuit board; the facade element comprising at least one actionable control key, which is integral with a fixed part of the facade element and which extends above a zone of the printed circuit board; the control key including an end joining the fixed part of the facade element and a mobile free end; the control key includes at its joining end a first protuberance bearing against the mount and/or against the printed circuit board, and includes at its free end a pressing zone provided to be touched by an operator with a view to actuating the control key; the control key also includes a second protuberance arranged between the first protuberance and the pressing zone, said second protuberance having a lesser height than the first protuberance and including at its free end opposite the printed circuit board a bearing surface provided to come into contact with a sensor arranged opposite on the printed circuit board when the control key is actuated.

A sewing machine includes a column, a bed, an arm, and an input interface. The column extends in an upper-lower direction. The bed extends in a first particular direction from the column at a position above a lower end of the column. A first direction includes the first particular direction and a first opposite direction opposite to each other. The first direction is perpendicular to the upper-lower direction. The arm extends in the first particular direction from the column at a position spaced upward from the bed. The input interface is arranged on a front plate. The front plate is a plate located at an end of the arm in the first particular direction. The input interface is an interface for operating the sewing machine.

A sewing machine assembly includes a sewing machine frame, a presser bar mounted to a frame head of the sewing machine frame, and a feed dog assembly. The feed dog assembly includes a feed dog mounted to the frame base to reciprocate vertically and horizontally relative to the frame base to pull fabric between the pressure bar and the frame base through the sewing machine frame, a feed dog drive system coupled to the feed dog to drive reciprocation of the feed dog relative to the frame base, and a feed dog cover selectively coupled to a frame base of the sewing machine frame to extend over the feed dog to shield the fabric from the feed dog.

The invention discloses an embroidery machine and a thread clamping device, including an embroidery machine body, a machine head, an embroidery frame, and a thread clamping device on the embroidery machine body. The thread clamping device comprises a thread clamping device mounting seat, corresponding thread regulator components, and functional buttons, or indicator lights and functional buttons in the functional area, for controlling the embroidery frame or/and the machine head on the thread clamping device mounting seat. As the thread clamping device is typically positioned above the machine head in a corresponding configuration, the embroidery frame and machine head can be controlled and adjusted via functional buttons on the thread clamping device corresponding to the machine head during embroidery machine operation observation. The invention simplifies operation, alleviates operator burden, and enhances work efficiency. With a simple structure and ease of use, the invention boasts high practical value and broad market prospects.
