UNITED STATE err GEORGE E. SERAK, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR I0 ALFRED DECKER & OOHN, INC., OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION OF ILLINOIS.
PATTERN FOR MAKINGGLOTHING Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 25, 1921.
Application filed November 3, 1919. Serial No. 335,298.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE EDWARD SERAK, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Chicago, Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Patterns for Making Clothing, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to patterns for use in making clothing, and more particularly to the patterns employed in tailoring establishments for trousers. These patterns have a center line. which must extend parallel with the stripe or design of the fabric, so that the same will extend straight up and down at the front and rear of the trousers When the latter are finished. This is ordinarily accomplished by measuring from the center line of the pattern to a line on the goods or fabric. This of course takes time and is also liable to be inaccurate.
Generally stated, therefore, the object of the invention is to provide a pattern having means or provisions which will obviate the necessity of measuring in the above described manner to ascertain the correct locationof the pattern on the goods or fabric, and whereby, at the same time, such means or provisions will not in any way interfere with the use of the pattern in the usual or required manner.
It is also an object to provide certain details of construction tending to increase the general efficiency and the desirability of a pattern of this particular character.
To these and other useful ends the invention consists in matters hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a plan of a pattern embodying.
the principles of the invention.
Fig. 2 is a similar view.
Fig. 3 is a plan view showing the way in which the pattern shown in Fig. 1 is placed on the. goods or fabric.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged detail section on line H in Fig. 1. I In the manufacture of trousers, one pattern, such as that shown in Fig. 1,-is employed in the making of what are calledthe front leg sections, and another pattern, such as the one shown in Fig. 2, is employed in the making of what are called the rear leg sections. The pattern 1, shown in Fig. 1,
is made of any suitable sheet material, such and is also provided with a center line 2 where the front crease of the trousers is located. The pattern 2 of Fig. 2 is of similar character, but of different outline, and has the center line 4: where the rear crease of the trousers is located. Pivoted gages 5 and 6, of different lengths, are pivoted on the pattern 1 at 7 and 8, in any suitable manner, and are adapted to be swung into the positions shown in dotted lines. Similar gages 9 and 10 are pivoted on the pattern 3 at 11 and 12, and are adapted to be swung into the positions shown in dotted lines. Thus each gage is adapted to extend evenly on a straight linewith a fixed point on the edge of the pattern.
Now assume that the pattern 1 is to be used in making leg sections for trousers in the usual or ordinary manner. In such case,
the pattern is laid upon the goods or fabric as'shown in Fig. 3, with the center line 2 extending parallel, or as nearly parallel as possible, with the stripe or design or the weave of the cloth. Before marking the cloth, however, the cutter will swing one of the gages 5 and 6 into extended position. The end edge of the gage 5, when the latter is in the fully extended position thereof, is exactly the same distance from the line 2 that the corner 13 is at the other end portion of the pattern, so that a line drawn from. the corner 13 to said'end edge of the gage 5 will be parallel with the line 2 and in a similar way, the end edge of the gage 6, when the latter is in the extended position thereof, is exactly the same distance'froni the line 2 that the corner 14: is, so that a line intersecting this corner and the edge of the gage will be parallel with the line 2 at the center of the pattern. Therefore, when the corner 14, for example, and the end edge of the gage 6 are exactly onv the same line of the fabric or cloth, it follows that the line 2 is then necessarily parallel with the design or stripe of the cloth. The cutter, in this way, can accurately adjust the pattern on the cloth, in order to bring it into proper position before tracing the outline thereof on the surface of the fabric. This obviates the necessity of measuring from the center line in order to obtain the correct position of the pattern on the fabric, and saves time, and tends to minimize inaccuracy, as it is important, of course, and more especially so in cases where the cloth has a pronounced tape lines or-yard pattern on the cloth in the usual and well known manner. Also, the gages are foldable over onto the surface of the pattern, so that they will notbe in the way when the patterns are stacked and stored away.
As previously stated, the invention relates to patterns in general, and while a pattern 20.
for trousers is shown and described, it will be understood that the inventlon 1s applicable to patterns for other articles of clothmg, and is not hmltedto patterns of any particular shape size, or character, or for any particular purpose.
The gages assist in positioning'the pat tern relatively to the weave of the cloth, and obviate the necessity of measuring with sticks, and greatly facilitate the work.
When each gage is extended, its end edge extends evenly with a fixed point on the edge of the pattern, so that this point and the end of the gage are in line, and such line is parallel withjthe line 2 or the line 4: of the pattern, as'explained, and in this way the placing of the pattern on the cloth (in such a manner that all of said lines will be parallel with the Weave or design of the cloth) is'made comparatively easy and greatly facilitated.
What I claim as my invention is 1. As an article of manufacture, a pattern for use in cutting cloth, said pattern being provided with means for assisting the user in properly positioning the pattern on the cloth, having a longitudinal center line and. side edges, the pattern being wider at one end than at the other, and said means comprising one or more gages pivoted on the narrower end portions of the pattern, the length of each gage being such that When extended its outer end is on a line whichrepresents the mazzimiimaviclt-h of the pattern at one side of said center line.
2. The improved pattern of fixed dimensions and shape and having provisions for gaging the position thereof on the cloth, so that the longitudinal center line of the pat tern will be parallel with the edge of the cloth, and with the weave thereof, substantially as shown and described.
3. As an article of manufacture, a' pattern of i'ixed dimensions and outline for use in cutting cloth having an irregular edge, said pattern having means extending ,from said irregular edge to the straight edge of the cloth to insure a proper positioning of the patternjrelativelyto the weave or designof the cloth. V f
a, as an article of manufacture, a pattern for use in cutting cloth, having an irregular edge or outline, and a gage movably mounted on said patternto extend therefrom, so that the end of said gage will be in line with a fixed point on the edge of said pattern, and said pattern having a line which is'parallel with said line upon which said fixed point and the, end of said gage are located, when the gage is extended from the edge of the pattern,'thereby to facilitate the placing of the pattern on the cloth in such a manner that both said lines will be parallel with the weave or design' of the cloth. I Y v A structure as specified in claim 4,said gage being pivotedtoswing back upon the pattern to permit the marking of the cloth along the edge of the pattern/ r .6. A structure as specified in claim 4, in combination with another gage onthe opposite side of the pattern, so that the two gages are at opposite sides of said line on the pattern, and one gage being longer than the other, substantially as shown and described.
