CARPET.
No. 175,499. Patented March-28.18.76.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIEMIM" ATTORNEYS UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES A. READ, OF BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT.
IMPROVEMENT IN CARPETS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 175,499, dated March 28, 1876 application filed December 12, 1874.
.To all whom it may concern Be it .knoWn that I, CHARLES A. READ, of Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Carpets; and I do herebyfdeclare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawing, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawing is a representation of a plan view of a piece of my carpet. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the same.
This invention has relation to fancy-colored ingrain carpets, wherein it is desired to throw into the weft a great variety of colors; and the nature of my invention consists in the employment, in the manufacture of ingrain carpets, ot' a weft-yarn which is variegated, using for such yarn only one shuttle, and producing the figures by the Jacquard movements of the warp, as will be hereinafter explained.
In the annexed drawings I have represented a pattern having a black groundwork; but any color or combination of colors may be selected for the groundwork which will develop and render prominent the fancy colors or figures which it is designed to produce.
The variegated weft-yarn is continuous that is to say, it is filled in by means ofa single shuttle, which may be thrown by pickers in the usual way of weaving in power-looms, or it may be thrown by hand. This weftyarn is parti-colored, and the colors may be blended one in another, so as to leave welldefinc'd colors alternating with shades of the colors.
The colors and the arrangement of the colors in the weft-yarn are arbitrary, and they give a mottled appearance to the carpet, which cannot be produced with any number of yarns which are not variegated.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
'1. The process of manufacturing a figured ingrain carpet herein described, consisting in producing the figures by the Jacquard movements, and in giving a mottled appearance by the employment of a continuous variegated weft-yarn, the colors on which are arbitrarily located in any position, without care as to the position of the colors of the parti-colored weft in the fabric, and the variegated yarn being.
carried by a single shuttle, substantially as described.
2. As a new article of manufacture, the figured ingrain carpet herein described, mottled by a variegated Weft-yarn, the colors on which are arbitrarily locatedin any position, without care as to the position of the colors of the parti-colored weft in the fabric, substantially as set forth. I
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES A. READ. Witnesses:
J. WILBUR PARROTT, CURTIS THOMPSON.
