Fi i fhft'i BELT OR BELT-STRAP TURNER.
Application filed February 23, 1824.
T he present invention provides an instrument to facilitate the work of tailors and seamstresses when forming a belt or belt strap. A narrow strip of goods, after being folded longitudinally, is stitched along the meeting longitudinal edges and the tube thus formed constitutes the belt or belt strap and is required to be turned inside out in order to conceal the seams and the raw edges, Great difficulty is experienced in the turning of the tube and in consequence various ways have been devised for forming a belt or belt strap which obviates the necessity of turning the same and which are more or less objectionable and difficult to effect.
The present invention provides an instrument whereby the strip, after being folded and stitched, may be readily turned inside out, thereby overcoming the objections and (lliiiCUlti6S usually experienced in forming belts or belt straps.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent and suggest themselves as the nature of the invention is understood.
While the drawings illustrate an embodi ment of the invention it is to be understood that in adapting the same to meet different condi ions and requirements, various changes in the form, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the accompanying drawings forming a part of the application:
Figure 1 1s a plan view of a belt or belt strap turner embodying the invention Figure 2 is an edge view thereof,
Figure 3 is a sectional view showing the application of the invention,
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional view on the line l& of Figure 1, looking in the di rection of the arrows, and
Figure 5 is a detail perspective view of the hook and an end portion of the rod, the parts being separated and shown on a larger scale.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and designated in the several views of the drawings by like reference characters.
The numeral 1 designates a rod which preferably consists of a stout wire of suitable gage and length and which is sufficiently stiff and tempered to preserve its shape. An eye 2 is provided at one end of the rod and constitutes a fingerpiece and provides for suspending the device from a nail or like Serial No. 694,651.
part driven into a wall or partition. The
opposite end of the rod 1 is flattened, as indicated at 3, and a hook is attached thereto.
The hook is preferably formed from a strip of sheet metal which is doubled upon itself to provide a shank 4 and a bill 5, the shank 4t being attached to the fiat end 3 of the rod, preferably by rivets and solder, the latter filling the space at the sides of the flattened oortion 3 and vanishin into the side of the shank f to which the part 3 is attached, thereby obviating the formation of abrupt projections between the parts 3 and at. The sides of the inner end of the shank i: slope towards the rod 1 so as not to catch upon the goods and impede the movement of the instrument through the tube when turning the latter inside out. The hook is flattened so as to pass readily through the tube and the end of the bill 5 is toothed, as indicated at 6, and is inwardly beveled to prevent injury to the goods, The hook may be formed in any preferred way and its outer end is constructed to give a minimum resistance to the passage of the instrument through the tube when placing-it in position preliminary to turning the tube inside out.
The belt or belt strap is formed from a strip of goodswhich is folded upon itself longitudinally, the meeting edges being stitched, thereby forming a tube which re quires to be turned inside out in order to conceal the rawedges of the strip and the stitching. In accordance with the present invention the instrument ispassed through the tube and the hooked end thereof is en gaged with the end of the tube remote from that through which the instrument was introduced. After the hook has been engaged with the tube, the rod 1 is withdrawn and the end of the tube engaged with the hook thereof is drawn through the tube with the rod, thereby turning the tube inside out, as indicated most clearly in Figure 3.
What is claimed is:
An instrument of the character and for the purpose specified comprising an operating rod, a metallic strip secured to one end portion of said rod, said strip being doubled upon itself to provide a hook surrounding said end, and the free edge portion of said hook being wider than the rod and adapted for engagement with the material to be turned.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
