Abstract
An automatic cloth feeding device in a cycle sewing machine is provided with first and a second cloth pressers which are placed on a working table and respectively hold and release both ends of the cloth in the lateral direction. Rotary motion of a first rotary shaft is changed to a linear motion by a first converting mechanism to cause the first cloth presser to move laterally while rotary motion of a second rotary shaft is changed to a linear motion by a second converting mechanism to cause the second cloth presser to move laterally. The first rotary shaft and the second rotary shaft are connected with or disconnected from each other by a clutch so that the first rotary shaft is driven by or released from a drive unit.
