Abstract
An automatic thread trimming device of a sewing machine contains: a holding disc, a cutter assembly, a fixed cutter, and a protective sheet. The automatic thread trimming device further contains an abutting segment formed on a distal portion of a curved section of a front end of an elastic extension and corresponding to a contact zone of a movable cutter, such that the movable cutter moves to the fixed cutter horizontally to produce cutting force. In the meantime, a longitudinal thickness of a protrusion corresponding to a receiving orifice is 0.5 mm so that a short thread end is cut between a thread and a cut portion of the thread, and the short thread end retracts inward because of a woven fabric, thus obtaining a flatness of a sewing product. Preferably, the automatic thread trimming device is capable of being driven by drive elements of any sewing machines.
