4UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
COMPANY, OF LOCKLAND, OHIO, A V('JOlitt?ORACLI( )Ilil' OF OHIO.
c i UPHOLSTERING- MACHINE.
Application led October 19, 1923. Serial No. 869,620.
To all whom it may concern Be it knownthat I, TRUMAN- G. PADDACK, a citizen o f the United States, and a resident of Wyomin in the county of Hamilton and State .-of io, have invented certain new and 'useful Improvements in Upholstering Machines,
of which the following is a full,
. clear, and exact description, reference be ing had to the accompanying drawings,
orming part of this specification. The object of -my invention is to provide an apparatus for packing the pockets of upholstery goods with soft material such as cotton battin and the like, which is usually employe to provide a soft cushion for the goods.
It is quite a diiiicult' task to fill the pockets effectively by reason of the friction of i the packing on the side walls of the pockets which tends to cause uneven spots and lack of uniform distribution. This is particularly noticeable where strips of cotton batting j are employed, which are usually furnished in a roll, which have to be the pockets.
'It is the purpose, therefore, of my invenpulled through tion to provide an apparatus in which these diiiculties in handling the ustrips are avoided, and the str ips may be inserted in the pockets uniformly and evenly. l
The invention consists of that novelconstruction of funnel for filling the pleats y and .pockets and method of operation'to be herelnafter particularly pointed out and claimed, tained. v
`In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my machine.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the machine with the funnel carrying the packingin the pocket to be filled..
. AFigure 3 is a similar view lwith the pocketwithdrawn.
Figure 4 is a cross section of the machine taken through the funnel.
A table 1 is provided about twice the length of the upholstery goods to be stuffed,
and preferably of a width slightly greater than the width of 'one of the pockets `to be filled, and also preferably with asheet mctal to surface, rounded 0E at the sides to provi' e aprons 2, .2. lMounted on this table lengthwise at one end is a trough or channel of sheet metal 3, raised slightly from the table surface to leave a. space to permit of whereby this result maybe at-4 y the upholstery.
After the machine is loaded, one pocket 4, 4, under which edges a cover plate 5 fits.
TBUMAN'G. PDDAK, OF WYOMING, OHIO, ASSIGN'OR TO THE STEABNS AND FOSTER he cover is substantially double the len th of the body of the trough, and is provi ed with a handle 6 for convenience in sliding the cover back and forth-for the purpose to be described. yThe trough with its cover thus forms a funnel which is of the cross' sectional shape of the filled pocket of the upholstery goods. The 'upholstery 7 is furnished in lengthsl of the desired width and with the pockets 8 backing, and the table in front of the funnel. machine is ready for use, first loaded with the strip of cotton batting, or other suitable filling material 9. This material is usually folded in bellows folds or comes in rolls and the roll is mounted in a receptacle 10 at the end of the table. To load tle machine the cover 5 is slipped completely oftl ofv the Vtrough which 'leaves it open on top, and the strip of batting 9 is Before the the funnel body is threaded into the trough by holding the tip formed with the desired i goods is passed over the trough 3, so that the trough 3 and cover 5 l forma complete funnel filled withbatting 9. It will be understood that the strip of batting before it is placed in the funnel is iuify and occupies a greater space than the section of the funnel, and that when located in the funnel, the strip is compressed as it is intended to be when filled into the pocket of strip 9 and the ocket 8 while thepcover plate is drawn out o -the pocket back'through the funnel trough to position shown in Figure 1, leaving the strip of batting 9 in the pocket. Y
The batting strip is then severed at the end of the'funnel nearest the pocket, the
next pocket is pulled over the form, and the operator proceeds as before, the cover plate being drawn with the upholstery as the pocket is drawn off the funnel, and then the cover is slid back to place. In this way the pockets can be lled uniformly and very rapidly, and the strain in the packing strip is reduced to a minimum. The movement of the cover plate prevents any undue friction as the strip of cotton batting is never pulled against the friction of the trough and cover .at the same time, and the cover plate goes with the strip as the pocket is pulled olf the trough and serves as a backing for the strip. Then the batting strip in the pocket permits the cover to be returned to its normal position without disturbing the conformation.
I have illustrated the principles of my invention with a single funnel, but any number of funnels might be mounted side by side, and a plurality of pockets filled simultaneously. Also Iinstead of pulling the goods upon a fixed trough, the funnel could be arranged to be inserted into the pocket and the top cover held with the packing as the trough is withdrawn. The essential feature of my invention resides in the open trough or funnelswith the sliding cover.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent,'is:- ,I
1. In a-device of the character specified, a iixedly held funnel open at both ends for the reception and delivery of the material for packing the pockets of upholstery goods, said funnel having atleast one longitudinal section, slidable on the xedly held portion to enter the pocket with the packing material and to be withdrawn therefrom separately.
2. In a device of the character specified, afxedly held funnel open at both ends for the reception and delivery of the material for packing the pockets of upholstery goods, said funnel constructed of a body portion `for the bottomy and sides and a slidablentop cover, adapted to be drawn as a unit into the pocket and withdrawn therefrom separately.
3. In a device of the character specified, 'a table, with a funnel secured thereto, with the body of the funnel raised from the table surface to permit the pockets in the goods to be upholstered to be drawn thereon, the funnel provided with a sliding top portion, adapted to be drawn into the pocket of the goods and to be drawn therefrom separately. 4. In a device of the character specified, a table, with a receptacle at one end for a roll of a narrow strip of filling material, a funnel mounted on the table to receive the strip as drawn from the roll, the body of the funnel raised from the surface of the table to permit the pockets to be drawn thereon, and a slidable top cover for the funnel, adapted to be slid out of the funnel body into the pockets for the strip and withdrawn therefrom separately, the top cover being substantially twice the length of the body of the funnel.'
Y 5.* A machine for stuliing upholstery which comprises akfunnel shaped to receive -an upholstery pocket, said funnel having a separate longitudinal section held against lateral displacement but slidable upon the funnel, said slidable section being provided with a handle.
