As illustrated in, in this implementation case, a thread clamping device is presented, including a thread clamping device mounting seat, a corresponding thread regulator componentlocated on the thread clamping device mounting seat, and the thread regulator componentsare used to control the delivery of the upper thread. The thread clamping device mounting seatis provided with functional buttonsfor controlling the embroidery frame or/and the machine head. Or the thread clamping device mounting seatis equipped with indicator lights and functional buttonsfor controlling the embroidery frame or/and the machine head. The functional buttonscan be arranged in the vacant space, on the side, or the outer side of the thread clamping device mounting seatand the vacant space, side, or outer side of the existing thread clamp basecan fully accommodate the functional buttons. The functional buttons can cover the regular operations of the embroidery frame and the machine head of the existing embroidery machine. The functions may include, but are not limited to, operations such as start, stop, inching, pause, emergency stop, and any other actions required by the embroidery machine that can be realized through the functional buttons.

As a preferred embodiment of this implementation case, one side, both sides, or each side of the thread clamping device mounting seatis provided with protruding features, and the protruding featuresare provided with a functional area.
