GARMENT-FASTENER TAIPE- Application filed April 1,
This invention relates to improvements in garment fastener tape, and more especially to such tapes in which the fastener elements are in the form of metal eyes adapted for cooperation with an opposed tape having fasteners of hook form.-
Tapes of the general character above mentioned are rovided with the fastener elements in pre etermined spaced apart relation and firmly secured to and between the tape body and a cover strip, so that a garment manufacturer merely is required to insert the edge of a garment to be e uipped with fasteners between the body an cover strip portions of the tape and then stitch the same together, whereby the tape not only serves as a bindin for the garment edge but provides the astener elements at desired points along the garment edge.
Garment manu acturers purchase fastener tape of the kind above mentioned from the tape manufacturer, and it is one of the objects of this invention to provide eye fastener tape in such initial form that the garment manufacturer may apply the same to a garment edge by machine sewing with greater ease and facility, and so that a smooth, even and secure engagement of the garment edge with the tape may be assured without necessity of employing especially skilled operators. To this end the present invention provides a fastener tape havin an initially open cover-strip, the fold 0 which serves as a guide to the operator when applying the garment edge portion thereto, the tape being so constructed that the fastener attaching and reenforcing stitches which secure the fasteners to the tape do not obstruct or unduly limit the garment receiving space of the tape.
Another object of this invention is to provide a novel arrangement of fastener attaching stitches which are beyond the line of fold of the initially 0 en cover strip of the tape, and which include reenforcing bar stitches extending transversely outward from the line of running stitches traversing the fasteners, whereby said bar stitches are disposed adjacent to each side of each fastener, to thus firmly anchor and secure said fasteners to and between the tape-body and cover strip with the operative endsof the same exteriorly expose Other objects of this invention, not at this time more particularly enumerated, will be 1927. Serial No. 180,115.
clearly understood from the following detailed description of the same.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in wlrichz- Figure 1 is a face view. of the initially nished by the tape manufacturer to the g'arment maker; and Figure 2 is a face vlew showing the finished application of the fastener tape to a garment.
Figure 3 is a transverse section on an enlarged scale, taken on line 33 in Figure 1; and Figure 4 is a transverse section on an enlarged scale, taken on line 4-4: in Figure ployed in said above described views to indicate corresponding parts.
Referring to the drawings, the complete fastener tape comprises a tape-body 5 made of suitable fabric material having its side marginal portions 5' folded over to provide a plurality of plies of the fabric material and at the same time furnishingthe tape with smooth finished edges, thus producing a strong tape body of any desired predetermined width. The tape thus produced may be fiurnished in any yardage or length desire The reference character 6 indicates a cover-strip which is also made of suitable fabric material with its longitudinal edge portions folded under as at 6 to furnish a stri of desired width having smooth finished ed es Said cover-strip is usually made of ess width than the width of the tape body 5.
In manufacturing the tape suitable automatic machines are employed to stitch together the tape body 5 and cover-strip 6,
with the bases 7 of the eye-fasteners 7 disposed intermediate the tape body and cover-strip but so as to leave the operative eye portions of the fasteners exposed in exterior projection beyond the outer or forward margin of the cover-strip; said eyefasteners being longitudinally spaced apart at predetermined distances one from another.
To secure the tape body 5, cover-strip 6 and intermediate eye-fasteners 7 in proper assembled relation, with the latter firmly and securely anchored against displacement, the tape body and cover-strip are together passed through a sewing machine so that a line of running stitches 8 is produced which 0 open fastener tape in 'the condition f 1 v Similar characters of reference are emjoins' said tape body and cover-strip to- 'versely gether along the outer or forward margin ofthe latter, said running stitches 8 traversing the sides of the eye-portions of the eye-fasteners 7. Said line of running stitches 8 is interrupted at points adjacent to each side of the eye-portions of the fasteners, at-which points outwardly and transextending groups of reenforcing bar-stitches 9 are formed. Said bar-stitches 9 extend directly. outward from the line of running stitches 8 across the outer or forward margin of the cover-strip 6, as-shown more especially in Figures 2, 3 and 4 of the \folded disposition of the cover strip drawings. The line of running stitches is continued between the sides of each fastener 7, as indicated at 8' in Figure 2, thus producing a very'xstrong anchoring attachment of the fasteners, such attachment being strongly reenforced at the respective sides of the eye-portions of the fasteners 7, so that "the latter not only easily withstand very considerable pulling strains, but also are secure against lateral displacement, canting, or other shifting.
In the manufacture of the tape, after the parts have been assembled and secured together in the manner above described, the cover-strip 6 is turned over and outwardly from the line of stitches 8 so as to be initially disposed in an opened out relation to the tape body 5, as shown in Figures 1 and 3. The fastener tape is sold to the garment manufacturer in this initially open condition.
The above described open disposition of the cover-strip 6 produces at the inner edge of the opened cover-strip a fold edge 10 which serves as a guide or abutment against which an edge of the garment, to which the tape is to beapplied, may be'stopped and 1 aligned, whereby the operator is enabled to more smoothly and evenly apply the garment edge portion 11 in overlying relation to the exposed inner or rearward portions of the tape body 5, as said garment and tape are fed together to a sewing machine. The sewing machine is provided in advance of the sewing mechanism with means to automatically turn said cover strip 6 rearwardly and over upon the applied garment edge as a guidin I garment to 51 portion 11,whereupon stitching 12 is sewn through the inner or rearward edges of the cover-strip 6 and tape body 5 and through the intermediate garment edge portion 11, thus firmly uniting the tape in operative relation to the garment. It will be noticed that the bar-stitches 9 project outwardly from the line ofru'nning' stitches 8 and 8', which latter stitches alone determine the line of fold for the initially open cover-strip 6, and consequently said barstitches do not limit or interfere in any way in obtaining the desired initially outwardly neither do the said bar-stitches interfere with the smooth and even continuity of the fold edge 10 whereby the same'may serve abutment when applylng the e ta e. I
Having thus described my present invention, I claim 1 In a fastenertape for garments, a tape body, a cover strip disposed in overlying relation to and upon the rearward portion of said tape body, fasteners disposed between said tape body and cover strip with their operative ends projecting exteriorly beyond the forward edge of asid cover strip, stitching joining said. forward edge portion of said cover strip and tape body and transversing said fasteners, said stitchingincluding at each side of each fastener outwardly extending transverse bar stitches extending across said forward edge of said cover-strip, and the rearward free portion of said cover-strip being initially folded out- LEO ROSEMAN.
