A. A. BAKER MACHINE STITGHED CRAVAT OR TIE Aug. 14; 1928.

UNITED STATES ALFRED A. BAKER, OI BUFFALO, NEW YORK.
MACHINE-STITCHED CRA'VAT 0R TIE.
Application filed July 8,
This invention relates to apparel, particularly to cravats or ties of the four-in-hand type, and has for its general object the rovision of a cut fabric tie which is mac ine stitched, the stitching being loose whereby the tie will possess all the advantages of the handmade type.
It is well known that ties of the cut fabric type are generally cut on the bias so as to have a certain amount of give when subjected to a lengthwise pull, this feature being preferable for the reason that the tie Wlll spring back into place after, being stretched or pulled and will therefore preserve its neat and attractive appearance for a much longer time than would be the case otherwise. It is customary to la'p'the edges at the interior and stitch it by hand, the thread being quite loose and being knotted at both ends to prevent withdrawal, the looseness of the stitch permitting the longitudinal elastic-like. action. Furthermore, practically all ties are provided with a lining or filler which, in the case of a, handmade tie, is generally likewise cut on the bias so as to be yielding when the tie is pulled lengthwise as when getting it into proper place with respect to the collar with which it is used. Ordinarily the hand stitching passes throu h the lining at intervals. While ties ma e in this manner are generally considered to be quite su erior to others, there is the disadvantage t at hand work is necessary, the cost of the completed iilrticle being consequently comparatively igh.
It is with the above facts in view that I have designed the present invention which has for an important object the provision of a fabr'c tie cut on the bias, loosely stitched by machine and provided'interiorly with a lining or filler which is preferably secured to the fabric at only one end so that it may accommodate itself to any pulls upon the tie instead of becoming bunched or otherwise misplaced. 7
Another object of the invention is to provide a tie and method of making the same in which the stitching is effected by a sewing machine to form the tie into tubular form, the tie being subsequently turned inside out so that the seam will not show, the method involved being simpler and cheaper than that required under ordinary circumstances, and the cost of production being thereby reduced.
To the attainment of the above and other 1926. Serial No. 121,241.
objects and advantages, the invention preferably consists in the detailed construction and the method steps to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which Figure l is an elevation of a tie made in accordance with the invention, parts being broken away and in section to show the formation more clearly,
Figure 2 is an enlarged cross sectional view taken on the line 2.2 of Figure 1, and
Figure 3 is a fragmentary enlarged longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, the numeral 10 designates the tie or cravat as a whole. This tie is shown as being made of fabric cut on the bias so as to be yielding longitudinally. The shape may of course be anything desired, though the tie is represented as having a main end portion 11 and a smallerend portion 12, the end portion 11 being comparatively wide and tapering down to the intermedlate or neck band portion 13.
In the making of the tie, the fabric is folded over, wrong side out and the ed es lapped. A reinforcing tape 14, prefera ly straight cut, is placed at the lapping edges and stitching is then efl'ected as shown at 15.
It is intended that the stitching be done by means of an ord nary sewing machine havin its tension adjusted so that the stitches Wi 1 be very loose so as to permit longitudinal stretching when the tie is pulled. The tie having been stitched, it is reversed or turned right side out so that the seam will be on the interior as indicated in Figures 2 and 3, nothing showing on the back except the stitches andthey not being conspicuous. It might be conceivable to omit the reinforcing tape though its presence is an advantage for the reason that it prevents tearing out or ravelling out of the fabric at the stitches.
The lining or filler 16 which is cut on the bias so as to be longitudinally yieldable is then threaded through the tie in the usual or any preferred manner and is secured, as by stitching 17, to the fabric at a single point near the wide end. Except at this one point the filler or lining is entirely free so that it may accommodate itself to any pulls applied to the tie.
In actual practice, a tie constructed in this manner is very elastic or resilient and is capable of being stretched lengthwise to a considerable extent without any ill effects as it has been discovered that by virtue of the elasticity the tie will spring back into normal shape and condition when any pulling pressure is relieved. Experience has demonstrated that the tie, while easy and cheap to make, in so far as labor is.conoerned, possesses unusual durability and maintains its neat, attractive and artistic appearance for a comparatively long period of time.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention and the method of constructing it, it should of course be understood that various changes in the shape, size and details may be resorted to provided such modifications or variations constitute no departure from the spirit of the ALFRED A. BAKER.
