Abstract
A bobbin case for use in machines having underbed thread trimmers incorporates a thread guide consisting of a piano wire soldered to the cylindrical skirt of the case in the region between the leaf tension spring and the point at which the thread is cut by the trimming blade. A groove is formed under and partly through the wire and also partly through the cylindrical skirt. The groove is directed at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the skirt such as to place the groove in line with the direction of movement of the thread to facilitate smooth thread handling.
