Letters Patent No. 112,576, dated March 14, 1871.
IMPROVEMENT lN NEEDLES AND HOLDERS FOR SEWING-MACHINES The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it-may concern.-
ing my improvedspl'it open-eyed needle attached.
Figure 2 is a front view of the device forholding the needle in the bar.
Figure 3 is a modification of the needle detached.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts. v
This invention relates to an improvement in the construction of a needle for a sewing-machine, and consists in splitting the needle longitudinally in such manner as to open one end for the admission of the thread into the eye, whereby the needle may be threaded with greater facility than byrunuing the thread through the 'eye endwise in the ordinary manner.
A represents a needle-bar of the classworking in a In the head B is fitted a slide-piece, a,'the lower end of which slipsover the topend' of the needle 12, to hold it fast, by means of a thumbscrew, c, which clamps the slide-piece a down upon the needle when it is used. v
When the slide-piece ais released by unscrewing the thumb-screw c, it rises in the head B bymeans .of arspring, d, connected. with its upper end.
Behind thehead B is a forked bent arm, 0, the
lower end of which is formed so as to act as a spring-' clamp, e',,within which is held suspended, on pivots,
thread it, and also shall bear on one side of the split needle only, so that the other side may be opened for the purpose of threading, as seen clearly in fig. 1.
The needle b is split longitudinally from the upper end down to the eye in such manner that the two sides thus formed may be sprung far enough apart to introduce the thread between them and pass it down to the eye, as shown in red in fig. 1; or the needle may be made in two parts, nicely fitted together, and one end of one side secured to the other at the eye by a pivot or hinge-joint, h,'as shown in fig. 3..
To thread the needle the upper end is released from the slide-piece a, and is swung forward in the suspended clamp g, so that the sides may be spread to introduce the thread.
:Needles of any size may be fastened in the cleftclauip g, which, with the spring-clamp e, adapts itself to diti'erent sizes.
By means of this construction both of the divisions of the needle formed by the split are securely held, when in operation, .by' the needle-arm, and, consequently, it possesses the same strength as though it were not divided.
Having thus described my invention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure'by Let ters Patent, is i V l. The combination of alongitudinally-split eyepointed needle, having the split extending from the eye upward through its top, with a needle-arm adapted to clamp or hold both of the divisions of the needle, as described. 1
2. The cleft-swinging clamp g, in combination with the split needle 1), arranged and operating as herein described.
'3. The slidepiece a, with the spring d, in combination with the needle b and the thumb-screw 0, conetructed and operating as and for the 'purpose herein described.
