LABEL STRIP Filed Jan. 2, 1930 INVENTOR M/a/fer Bias/Jar ATTORNEY Patented Sept. 1, 1931 sass WALTER B. LASHAR, F FAIRFIELD,
CONNECTICUT, ,ASSIGNOR TO THE AMERICAN FABRICS COMPANY, A CORPGRATION OF CONNECTICUT LABEL STRIP Application filed January 2, 1930. Serial No. 418,006.
My invention relates to labels to be attached to garments and other articles for distinguishing or identifying purposes. Such labels are usually made in the form of continuous strips of fabric in which numbers, charactcrs, trade-marks or other identifying markings are woven in successive, spaced relation. The label strip is then cut by an automatic machine between the label markings and the cut edges of the label lengths are folded over so as to leave no exposed raw edge when the label is attached to the garment,
One of the difiiculties encountered in cutting label strips by automatic machinery is that the length and relative spacings of the label markings vary somewhat due to irregularities in the weave, so that the feed of the label strip to the cutter of the machine must be constantly varied or corrected to compensate for such irregularities.
It is an object of my invention to provide a label strip on which means are provided between the successive label markings which will coact with mechanism of the cutting machine to properly position the successive label markings with respect to the cutter of the machine.
I am aware that label strips have been prepared in which a rib or raised portion is woven in the label strip intermediate between the label markings, this rib being utilized to intercept a pusher device by which the label strip is fed to the cutter. It is an object of my invention to provide a more positive scans on the label strip for controlling the feed in the cutting machine. To this end I provide a loop in the label strip between each pair of abel marl 'ngs, this loop being preferably formed by the loom as the strip is 40 being woven.
In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of my improved label strip, showing the obverse side of the strip, and
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the label strip, showing the reverse side of the strip.
The drawings illustrate a label strip comprising a. continuous strip of fabric or tape .10 in which label markings 11 are woven.
0 Between the successive markings are loops 12 which are formed during the weaving of the strip bv temporarily interrupting certain of the hcddles in the loom so that one or more of the warp threads will be held out and not be interwoven with the weft. By thus holding out the warp threads for a definite number of picks and at intervalsmeasured by the picking, the resultant loops will vary in length and spacing according to the weave of the fabric and will bear a definite relation to the label markings woven in the strip. The loops thus formed provide a positive means of controlling mechanism in the label cutting machine, whereby the label strip will be properly positioned with respect to the cutter so that the label lengths will always be cut off at a predetermined line intermediate between successive label markings. A method of using my improved label strip is disclosed in my copending application, Serial No. ll-18,692 filed Jan. 6, 1930.
Although I prefer to form the label strip with a warp loop, my invention is not limited to the construction shown in the drawings but includes a label strip with any form of loops arranged in predetermined relation to the label markings and providing position determining means in a label cutting machine.
The loops 12 are preferably formed on the underside of the label strip so as not to appear on the face of the labels, and they are preferably centered between the label markings. Hence in the cutting and folding machine the loops are cut by the cutter as the label lengths are severed from the strip and the free ends of the severed loops are folded under with the cut ends of the label lengths by the folding mechanism. Thus there is no evidence in the cut and folded label of any special positioning means formed on the label strip.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: i
1. A strip of fabric formed with label markings arranged in successive spaced relation and a loop of thread overlying one face of the fabric in each space between markings,
said loop forming a constituent part of the fabric.
2. A strip of fabric formed with label markings arranged in mutually spaced relation and a loop of thread overlying one face of the fabric extending longitudinally of the strip between each pair of markings, said loop forming a constituent part of the fabric.
3. A strip of fabric bearing label markings. on one face thereof and formed with loops of thread on the opposite face thereof located between said markings, said loop forming a constituent part of the fabric.
4. A strip of fabric formed with successive, mutually spaced label markings and. a loop in'the Warp of the fabric between each pair of label markings, said loop overlying one face of the fabric.
5. A strip of fabric formed With successive, mutually spaced label markings and a loop in the Warp of the fabric centered between each pair of label markings, said loop overlying one face of the fabric.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification- WALTER B. LASHAR.
