EMIL FRANCK, 0F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
' sToCKING,
Specication of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 18, 1916.
Application led December 13, 1913. Serial No. 806,383.
To all whom it may concern.'
'Be it known that I, EMIL J. FRANCK, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and' State of Pennsylvania, have in-Y vented certain new and useful ImprovementsV in Stockings, of which the following is a specification.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide an attractive, neat'looking stocking having a seamless fashioned leg and which can be conveniently and expeditiously made ,on a circular knitting machine.
The invention comprises the improvements to be claimed at the end hereof, but first described in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1, is a diagrammatic view of so much of a stocking as is necessary for an explanation of the invention, and Fig. 2, is a diagrammatic view of a circular knitting machine which is helpful in a description of the invention.
A The stocking is a seamless one and the widening fabric structure gradually in-y creases from a point a, on each side until the edges 4 of the said widening fabric structure meet at the point 2 at'the back and at 4the place where the leg attains its largest diameter. The section indicated by 1 is the portion of the fabric which has been pushed aside by the introduction of the vtwo gores. It may be said tooe V-shaped with its top or point at the back of the stocking and at the point 2 where the stocking attains its full diameter. The stocking therefore'is of attractive shape and presents a good appearance when'viewed from either the front or .the back, more' particularlylthat the back which is ordinarily visib e. An imaginary line drawn vfrom about the point 3 verticallyA af Fig. 1 to thelower end of dotted line 4 will, together lwith the dotted line, indicate the shape end position of one of said gores. By this arrangement the stocking attains its full vdiam' t r.. artof appearance of the stocking is attractive Decause the front part of the stocking does not show the gore which, as has been said, is arranged at the back of the stocking and there' fore in the properA position, which is out of sight.
To further explain the invention reference may be made to Fig. Q, in which the short lines represent the ordinary needles of a circular machine and the long lines represent extra needles. As shown the long lines or extra needles occupy one-third of the circumference and the short lines or regular needles occupy the entire circumference. The narrow part of the stocking is knit on the regular needles and the wide part of the stocking is knit on the regular needles plus the eXtra needles. In vmaking the described gore the extra needles, 6 and 7, are introduced when one course of stitches is made and the extra needles 8 and 9 are introduced when another course of stitches is made and this is continued by introducing needles frequently from the outer sides of the extra. needles to the center of the group. In this way the described gore is produced..
What l claim is:
A seamless stockin having on each side a widening gore which extends from a point toward the rear of the stocking upward and backward, the two widening gores meeting at a point in the back of the stocking where the latter'v attains its full diameter, and having'a section pushed back by theintroduction of the two gores and of generally triangular shape ;With its point at the back Aof the stockingand fat the .place where the In testimony whereQf signed my name. i
