Abstract

See full text

A presser foot for a sewing machine includes a presser foot with a shank. The end of the presser-foot shank is articulated with a presser-foot sole having a stitching opening for a needle, which is attached to a needle bar. The presser-foot sole is capable of being swung relative to an upper-part of a housing therefor about the axis of the needle. In a preferred embodiment, the presser foot of the invention, which is connected to the sewing machine in a manner so that it is capable of being swung at least 180.degree., makes it possible for the operator of the sewing machine to adjust the presser foot and/or the presser-foot sole so as to make it essentially parallel to the sewing direction and, in this fashion, to allow the sewing-over of thickenings, hemmed borders and the like.
