Abstract

A sewing machine loop taker support bracket that is adjustable to permit the use of various size loop takers. The loop taker shaft is journalled in one end of the support bracket and is coupled by a timing belt to a lateral stud shaft journalled in the opposite end of the bracket, the stud shaft being driven through bevel gears by the machine bed shaft. Various size loop takers are accommodated by loosening the support bracket from the machine frame and adjusting the bracket about the stud shaft axis until the loop taker is properly positioned.
