Referring more in detail to the drawing,
a presser bar 2. The shank 1 has a forwardly projecting portion 3 to which the foot por-v I indicated in dotted lines in Fig. l. The upf per face of the foot portiondirectly beneath .the'shahk portion 3 engages said shank portion and limits the upward movement of the heel of the foot portion. The front end or toe of the foot portion may, however, rise when a fabric section is inserted beneath the foot. This tilting of the foot portion is of the usual operation in a felling presser foot. The foot foot to the rear end of the foot. This guiding channelis of a width corresponding to the I width of'the fell seam, that is, the fabric sec tions are inter-folded and guidedintoflthe channel, and the edge of the fold in one secdirectly'beneath the other side wall o'ffthe channel. This channel decreasesin' depth from the front end of the foot to the rear of' the foot, as is-usual in a fellingfoo't. I
The interfolded fabric sections are secured by a stitching mechanismfwhich consists preferably of tw'o needles 7 and 8. i A looper 9 cooperates with the needle 7 ,1 and a looper 3 i 10 cooperateswith the needle 8, and thus it;

The invention is directed particularly to 7 the devices which cooperate in holding the enchained thread loops when the machine is chaining and in stitching fabric sections.
; There is a yielding clamping device 14'asso-' ciated with each needle. The shank portion 3 is provided with openings in which these clamping devices are located. The clamping devices are similar in constructionand a de scription ofone'will answer vfor the other. The clamping device 14 consists of an elongated member placed in vertical position and extending through the recess therefor inthe shank portion 8, and also through the open- .vice 14L is rigidly attached at its upper end to a spring arm 16 by means of a'cl'amping screw 17. The twospring arms 16, lfifor ,the clamping devices are preferably formed integral with a supporting shank'member 18 Swhich is clamped by means of a screw 19 to the shank 1 of the'presser foot. These spring arms normally force the clamp'ingdevices in a downward direction, and their ektentof downward movement is limited by the spring arm coming in contact with the upper face of the shank portion 8 Each clamping device'is rounded off at the lower front side thereof as. indicated at Each of the 40 clamping devices 14 relatively short the direction of feed being even of less length than the solid section of the throat plate' pp r ng shan fQ t pe tien pivoted t 12. lVhen the material being stitched passes the needle this yielding section will almost immediately engage the-enchained thread loops, while theremainder of the presser. foot is held raised from. the throatplate by the material being stitched passing beneath the same; This enables the threads to-Ybe controlled during the pchaining between stitched articles from the time when one ar: ticle passesthe needle until the next article is fed thereto.
