Abstract
A thread cutting device for a sewing machine includes a stationary blade which is disposed downwardly of a needle plate and a movable blade. The stationary blade is provided at its one end with a cutting edge. The movable blade which is formed with a cutout in the surface opposite to the stationary blade, is adapted to rotate about a shaft and pass over the needle plate and the stationary blade. The cutout is adapted to catch and guide a thread along a path for the thread and provided with a cutting edge to cooperate with the cutting edge of the stationary blade to cut the thread. A through hole is formed between the cutout and the cutting edge of the movable blade to meander the thread through the hole.
