hat I claim aS m invention is:

1. An electrically riven sewing machine, comprising atubular sewin machine head having a horizontally exten ing shaft in its upper arm portion, and an e ectric motor havin a horizontally extending armature exten ing parallel to the horizontal shaft and mounted in said upper arm portion and approximately in co-axial alinement with said shaft having a. driving connection between the armature and the shaft.

2. The combination with a sewing machine having a horizontal shaft for actuating a needle bar and a shuttle mechanism, of a motor encased within the head of the machine and having a horizontally extending armature extending parallel to the horizontal shaft and approximately in co-axial alinement therewith, and means for transmitting motion from the motor armature to the shaft at a less rate of speed of rotation than the speed of rotation of the motor.

3. The combination with a sewin machine having a tubular head provide with a horizontal shaft'. `lof a motor encased with-v in the head and extending around the shaft and having a driving connection therewith.

4. The combination with a sewing machine having a tubular head provided with a horizontal shaft, of a motor encased within the headand extending aroundthe shaft', and means for transmittingwmo*i i from the motor to the horizontal shaft at a less rate of speed of rotation than the speed of rotation of the motor.

5. The combination with a sewing machine having a tubular head provided with u horizontal shaft, of a motor with-in the head and having an, armature provided with a tubular shaft through which the horizontal shaft extends, and a geared connection betven the tubular shaft and the horizontal s a t.

6. The combination with aA sewing machine having a tubular head rovided with a horizontal two part shaft, o a motor within the head and havin an armature rovided with a tubular s aft through which the horizontal shaft extends, and a red connection between the tubular sha t and the horizontal shaft for transmitting motion from the motor to the horizontal shaft 'at a l less rate of speed of rotation than the speed of rotation of the ,armature 7. The combination with a sewing machine having a tubular head provided with a horizontal shaft, of a motor within the head and having an armature provided with a vtubular shaft through'which the horizontal shaft extends, a pinion mounted fast i on the tubular shaft, a counter shaft mounted in the head, a gear wheel `journaled on the counter shaft and in mesh with the pinion, said fear wheel having a pinion pro3ecting there rom, and a gear wheel mounted fast on the horizontal shaft and in mesh with the last mentioned inion.

8. The Combination with a sewin machine having a tubular head provide with an end opening and a removable end portion therefor, of a horizontal shaft journaled in the tubular head and the removable end portion, an electric motor within the tubular head and having an armature provided with a tubular shaft through which thehorizontal shaft extends, said motor being removable throughl the end opening, and means for transmitting motion from the armature shaft to the horizontal shaft at a less rate of speed of rotation than the speed of rotation of the armature shaft.

9. The combination with aegewing machine having a tubular head rvided `with an end opening and a removable end portion therefor, of a horizontal shaft journaled in the tubular head and the removable end por tion, an electric motor withinthe tubular head andhaving an armature provided with a tubular shaftthrough which thc horizon-q tal shaft extends, said motor being removable through the end o ening, a pinion mounted fast on the tubu ar shaft, a co nter shaft mounted in the head, a gear wh l journaled on the counter shaft -and in' mesh with the pinion, said gear wheel having a pinion projecting therefrom, and a r wheel mounted fast on the horizontal and in mesh with the last mentioned pnion.

10. The combination with 'a sewin ma- Y chine having a tubular head provide with tal shaft extends, said motor and Va, portion of the horizontal shaft being""remov abl'e through the end opening, and a -train of gears connecting the tubular shaft to the horizontal shaft for transmitting motion to the horizontal shaft at a lees r te of speed of rotation than the speed'of ro 'ation of the tubular shaft.
