Abstract

A holing sewing machine including a workpiece-presser elevating and lowering mechanism which elevates and lowers a workpiece presser, a needle-thread cutting mechanism which cuts a needle thread conveyed by a sewing needle; a bobbin-thread cutting mechanism which draws a bobbin thread from a bobbin and cuts the bobbin thread, an interlocking mechanism which mechanically interlocks the elevating and lowering mechanism, the needle-thread cutting mechanism, and the bobbin-thread cutting mechanism, with one another, such that the elevating and lowering mechanism elevates the workpiece presser after the needle-thread cutting mechanism cuts the needle thread and the bobbin-thread cutting mechanism cuts the bobbin thread, a drive source which drives the interlocking mechanism to operate the workpiece-presser elevating and lowering mechanism, the needle-thread cutting mechanism, and the bobbin-thread cutting mechanism, the drive source being controllable with respect to a speed of operation thereof to drive the interlocking mechanism, and a control device which controls the drive source such that the drive source is operated at a higher speed at at least one of a time when the needle-thread cutting mechanism cuts the needle thread and a time when the elevating and lowering mechanism elevates the workpiece presser, than a speed at a time when the bobbin-thread cutting mechanism draws the bobbin thread from the bobbin.
