Abstract (en)

A needle unit which is changeable in movement and which is free of friction loss while the needle body is moving up and down. It has a select jack (1), a push-up jack (2) and a needle body (3) arranged in a needle groove in this order from bottom to top. The needle body (3) has at its bottom a bifurcated portion made up of a support piece (9) and a resilient piece (10). The push-up jack (2) has its top end slidably inserted between the support piece (9) and the resilient piece (10), with the resilient piece (10) biased toward the push-up jack (2). The resilient piece is provided in its inner surface with two recesses (11,12) having different depths and on its outer surface with a butt (14). The push-up jack has a protrusion (8) on one side thereof adapted to engage in the recesses when the push-up jack slides up and down. <IMAGE>
