Definitions

  • Theinvention relates to new anduseful improvements in stitchlforming mechanisms for sewing machines, and more particularly to the mechanism for laying a crossthread between and connecting needle threads on the upper surface of the fabric.
  • An object of the invention 1 character having a thread-hook for engaging the cross-thread and forming a loop therein, and with a stationaryV finger against which the cross-thread is drawn bythe hool
  • Figure 2 is an enlarged front view of the end of the sewing machine with the edging guide removed;
  • Figure Si an end view of the machine, showing the parts at the end of the overhanging arm, the overhangingarm being omitted;
  • Figure isV a view partly in top plan and'partly in section, the section being taken directly beneath the lower bearing ofthe cverhanging arm; l
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view showing the' needles, the thread-hook, the thread nger and the thread-'guides forthe cros ⁇ - thread, the hook'being at the forward end of its stroke;
  • Figure 6 is a plan View showing the Athread s to provide ,y a stitch-forming mechanism ofthe above llA in part y'be obvious and willin part be hereinafter morey 1917; Serial No.. 1"s1,2os.
  • Figure 7 is a'view similar to. Figure 5,
  • Figure 8 is av plan Vview showing the thread-hook, thethrea'd-finger and the fixed thread-guides for the cross-thread;
  • FIG. 10 is a 'diagrammatic view, showing the relation of the threads to the fabricv 'n and the edging.
  • the invention is embodied 'in' astitching y mechanism consisting of a plurality' of needles whichv are arranged abreast andwith which a single looper co-operates beneath ⁇ the Work support. (lo-operating vwith these needles above the work support is a crossthread-laying hook adapted to engage a cross-thread and form a loop therein for one of the needles to enter.,
  • Vcross-thread-l'aying Vhook Associated with the Vcross-thread-l'aying Vhook is a finger against which the cross# thread is drawn, and this finger is so shaped that the pull of the hook on the cross-thread will cause the cross-thread 'to slide( rear Wardly on the finger and be positioned between the needles. Also associated with the finger and the cross-thread-laying hook is a needle bar, through Vwhich the cross-thread extends, andthis thread-guide on its .downward movement serves to bring the lcrossthread to its forward position on the' threadfingerwhere it willbe engaged by the hook thread-guide movable up and down with the as it next movesy forward to form a loop.
  • my improved stitch-forming mechanism is shown as applied to a sewing machine having a work support 1, an overhanging arm 2 in which reciprocates a needle bar 3, carrying a pair of needles 4 and 5; (3o-operating with the needles 4f and 5 beneath the work support' is a threaded looper 6. Said looper is pivoted at 7 and is oscillated by alink 8. This link 8 is pivoted at its other end to the needle lever extension 9 carried bythe needle lever l0.
  • the needle lever 10 is connected by a link l1 to the needle bar@
  • the needle lever is'oscillated by the eccen Y triclstrap 12 which, eo-operateswith the eccentric on the main shaft, and the main shaft is rotated by the usual belt wheel'13.
  • the material is held on the worksupport by a presser foot 14 carried by a presser bar 154 mounted in the overhanglng arm.
  • needle 4 is provided with a needle-thread 4,
  • the needles pass down through the fabric vand the looper enters, ⁇ both threaddoops formed by the needles, and the looper-thread is thereby concatenated' ⁇ with both needlethread loops.
  • j p The needle-threads are joined on the upper face of the fabric by a cross-thread 20. This secured to a bracket 25 attached to the overhanging arm of the machine.v An arm 22 ⁇ carried by the needle bar .engages the crossthread between the guides 22, 22 for pulling,
  • the needle bar d3 Mounted on the needle bar d3 is an arm 26 havinga thread-eye 27.- The cross-thread passes through thisvthread-eye; Thecross'- thread is formed into loops by a thread-hook 'y means of screws 33, 33.L
  • the lever. 32 extends to lthe rear of the overhang-ing' arm, 'and is 28.v v V'1 ⁇ histhread-hook is formed with'a notched end 29 and-with a shank 30, which' extends vertically vthrough a sleevel carried by a lever orf thread-hook carrier 32.

  • the lever32 is'provided with a ball stud 35 and a link 86bis pivotally attached to this vball stud.
  • the link 36 at itsother end is piv- :otally connected at 39 to a bracket 40 carried at the lower end of the needle lever extension 9. As the needle lever extension oscillates, the lever 32 will be oseillated, and thiswill move' the vthread-hook back and forth across lthe line of feed, or across a vertical plane passing centrally between theneedles.
  • the thread-finger 41 asV sho-wn in the drawings, is provided with a slot 43.
  • the wall 44 of this slot is, however, the only active .surface against which the threadvis moved.
  • thissurface is shownas yconsisting of a concave. curved surf-ace, which leads into a convex curved'surface, the convex curved surface forming theV curved shoulder 45.-
  • thread-hook is at the extreme rear end of its stroke.

  • the notch in the thread-hook moves-underneath the finger at thel forward end of the curved slot.
  • the cross-thread After the' hook has engaged the cross-thread, it forms the crossthread yinto a looprin the well known way, which loop wil-l be entered bythe needle farthest from the thread-finger. It is also desirable that the cross-thread should pass4 between As the hook; moves forward,
