The invention provides a thread take-up mechanism for a
sewing machine and the
sewing machine. The thread take-up mechanism comprises a thread take-up rod, a connecting rod
assembly and a fixedly arranged driving member, wherein the thread take-up rod is a bent member, the bent portion of the bent member is rotationally arranged, one end of the thread take-up rod is provided with a thread guide hole, one end of the connecting rod
assembly is connected with the driving member, the other end of the connecting rod
assembly is connected with the other end of the thread take-up rod, the driving member drives the connecting rod assembly to reciprocate between two states, the thread guide hole of the thread take-up rod is located at the lowest point in the first state, and the thread guide hole of the thread take-up rod is located at the highest point in the second state. The thread take-up mechanism for the
sewing machine and the sewing
machine have the advantages that by changing the swinging scope of the driving member, the
stroke of the thread guide hole in the thread take-up rod can be changed, or the thread take-up moment is changed when the
stroke of the thread guide hole in the thread take-up rod does not change, so that the thread take-up mechanism adapts to sewing of sewing materials of different thicknesses, and the amount of thread take-up can be adjusted according to different rotating shuttles.
