Filed March 30. 192-7 I i7206-7Z/b7" Patented June 24,- 1930 ALICE ANTHONY, I
DARNING V A pnation filed March so,
Myinvention relates to a darning form or frame which is designed to facihtate the repair of hosiery, and theob ect thereof is to provide a frame embodyingfnovel features of construction which Wlll be apparent from the description hereinafter:contained, and which render the de'vllce super or in certain respects to any devices for thesame purpose 7 known to me. In the appended claims I' have more particularly pointed out the es- A sential elements of my invention, and distinguished it'from theprior art,so far as I have knowledge of the same, 7
In the drawings Figure l is a face viewvof my inventionin a preferred formji";
Fig. 2 is a cross-section of the same in a planeindicatedfby the'dotted line'2 2 of Fig.1; U v s Figs. 3 and 4 are'similar cross-sections of slightly'modified forms of my invention Like reference characters, indicate like parts in all the views of the drawings.
Describing first the preferred form of my invention'illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2,vthe darning frame there shown consists of an elongated oval ring portion or rii'n member 1" which may conveniently be formed of wood, though, celluloid, rubber, or hard compositions of other suitable material may be employed ifdesired, and a partition or.
centrally thereof, the parts being fastened together in any suitable manner asby glue, metal brads, or other means- The frame-is of such size as'to permit asoclr or stocking In the form my inventionshownin Fig."
; 3, the partition member 3 is made removable,
to which end it is constructed ofa material sufficiently flexible to permit it to'be sprung into the'inside groove of the rim member 4. The latter, as illustrated,'isfformed with a gram e,- ILLINoIs 1e27, Serial hammer .narrowperiphery, has the eii ect of retaining 5' a stocking in adjusted position upon the frame somewhat more effectively than a rim which is circularincrosssseetion.
In the form ofmy invention illustrated in I F g. 4 the rim-1s formedin two sections, 5 r r and Offixed to the partition 7, the parts being finished to; present a peripheralsurface similar to that of-Fig. 3. v It will readily be understood that a stocking foot, or leg will be stretched by a darn-.
ingframe of appropriate size so that it will the rim portion, and that a darningneedle may be effectively plied 'to- Weave a repair connecting the margins of a'rent inthe article. In any form of solid darning last the, fabric of course lies flat upon the surface of the last and the needle must be worked up and down against the underlying impenetrablesurface of the last, whereas in my improved .darning frame the point of the needle may be carried down into the free working space beneath, "and moreover" a crotchet needle may be employed to repair what are known as runners, which are longitudinal open linesin the fabric due't'o I the breaking of a thread, this procedure being in many cases, particularly in the case of finely knittedfabrics', the best and most satisfactory method of making such a repair.
The central septum prevents the needle fabric'on the side of the article opposite that being repaired, and prevents any flap eX- lie'in parallel sections on-opposite' sides of s vfrom being incautiously carried into the 1 tending inwardly from a rention one side being caught by the needle when working upon rent on the opposite side. The size a and shape of my novel frame is such,'moreover, that in use it will ordinarily lie fiat,- or nearly flat, in the palmofonehand of the person using it, and the partition serves to protect the hand lagai-n'st'needle pricks f due to incautious manipulation of the needle. 1
Incidentally, this partition provides alsuitable face for ornamentation, orthe reception of advertising matter, in cases where my novel darnlng frames" are distributed as premiums, or prizes, or as advertisements by i.
ii'eo those desiring to reach users ofsuclrdevices.
While the cross-sectional dimensions of the rim. of my' frame may vary somewhat,
it will be understood that they should be such as to provide adequate space between the opposite stretched sections of the article (and on each side -of the partition) for I I manipulation of the needle, a suitable proportlonate size being-shown n the drawings.
