METHOD 0F EINISHING HOSIERY.
Application tiled October 18, 1921. Serial' No. 508,488. g
To all Lc/wm 'it may concern.'
Be it known that we, FREDERICK J. KIENEL and WALTER M. SCHWARTZ, citizens ot' the United States, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements' in a Method of Finishing Hosiery, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to certain improvements in the process of finishing hosiery.
One object of our invention is to a-pply the hosiery to the forms more rapidly than heretofore and to moi-sten the hosiery while on the forms prior to the final drying and shaping of the hosiery.
A further object of the invention 1s to straighten the hosiery on the form after the form, with the hosiery thereon, has passed through the moistening chamber and prior to its passage into the drying chamber.
These objects we attain in the VJfollowing manner, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a plan view in diagram showing a stocking drying machine equipped to dry hosiery in accordance with our invention; and Y Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2 2,
While our invention can be carried out by hand, or by any well known stocking drying machine, the machine illustrated is of the type illustrated and claimed in the patent granted to Harry- Coulston and falter M.l Schwartz, No. 1,126,619, January 26, 1915.
Referring to the drawing, 1 is the frame ot the machine. 2 is the drying chamber.l 3 arc'guideways for the stocking boards 4, which are traversed in a rectangular path in front of the drying chamber and then through the drying chamber. At the front of the' machine is a moistening chamber, or hor, 5 through which pass the forms` with the. stockings thereon. 'l` his chamber can be of any length desired and the moisture can be regulated by any well known means.
In the present instance, a steam pipe 8 is shown exhausting into the moistening chamber, but any means may be used for supplying moisture,
The stockings are placed upon the forms in a dry condition at the point a and the forms, with the stockings thereon, pass into the moistening chamber 5, where they are moistened. The stockings, when lmoistened to the proper degree, pass out `ot' the moistening box and a second operator at the point b straightens the stockings on the forms. The stocking forms, with the stockings thereon, pass into the drying chamber 2. The stockings are subjected to hot air in circul ation while in the chamber, suitable steam coils 6 being provided to heat the air to the proper degree and a circulating fan 7, driven in any suitable manner, circulates the air in the drying chamber.
When the forms, with the dried stockings thereon, emerge from the drying chamber, the stockings can be removed by hand, or by automatic mechanism illustrated in the patent hereinbefore alluded to, or by other suit able devices for accomplishing this purpose. l
By our invention, the stockings can be placed on forms in a dry condition. This can be accomplished much more readilythan when the. stockings are damp. By passing the forms, with the stockings thereon, through a moistening chamber, the amount of moisture can be regulated so that the stockings will be properly moistcned, after which the stockings can be straightened on the forms before being finally 'dried and shaped.
"We claim:
The method herein described of finishing stockings, said method consisting in placing the stockings on forms while in a dry condition; passing the stockings while on 4the forms through a moistening chamber in which they will rece'vc the proper degree ofy moisture; straightening the stockings while on the forms after vthey leave the moisteniug chamber; and then passing the stockings while on the forms through a drying chamber in which the heated air is circulated inl direct contact with the stockings.
