ATTORNEYS,
T time tis'rrasss MANUFACTURE Wilbur H. Oerlebeck, Lockland, Ohio, assignor to The Stearns & Foster; Company, Lockland, Ohio, a corporation of Ohio Application October 5, 1929. Serial No. 397,658
2 Claims.
My invention relates to mattress manufacture,
and particularly to a novel method of preparing,
the border edges of mattresses with straight nonpuckering piping or cording. v
In the art, it has been customary in the past to decorate and reinforce the outer border edges or peripheries of the top and bottom faces of mattresses with piping or cording. Mattresses are usually composed of a number of layers of resilient padding, such as cotton'or wool, re-
tained within a sewn bag. To prevent the filling from shifting, it has been customary to quilt the cover by securing stitches in difierent positions across through the padding. Deco'rative buttons or tassels are frequently tied to the ends of the quiltingstrings. As a result of the numerous puckers in the cover of the mattress, due to the quilting, it is necessary to start with a much bigger bag than the size of the finished mattress will be. For example, in a mattress which is to measure six feet four inches in length, an allowance of from four to five inches is necessary in that dimension of the bag. Due to the puckering of the mattress cover, where piping or cording is used to decorate and reinforce the corner edges, the piping or cording is pucked into wavy lines which mar the appearance of the article.
It is theobject of my invention to provide a method of so manipulating the center cord within the piping of a mattress, constructed accordingly, that as a final step in the manufacture, border edges of straight non-puckered appearance will result. It is a further object of my invention to provide a mattress having border edge piping or beading in whichthe piping or beading will extend continuously in straight lines about the edges of the mattress.
The above and other objects to which reference will be made inthe ensuing disclosure, I accomplish by that certain combination and arrangement of parts of which I have shown a preferred embodiment.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a mattress having an appearance similar to that which has been customary in the past, and such as a mattress assumes prior to the manipulation in accordance with my invention. 7
Figure .2 is a perspective View of a mattress made in accordance with my invention.
cover is turned inside out and is in condition for filling with padding.
Figure 5 is a perspective View of a piece of cording which may be used instead of piping.
Referring first to Figures 3 and 4, the mat- 0 tress bag or cover is formed by stitching together sheets of ticking such as are indicated at l. A preferred method of bag construction consists in incorporating between plies of the ticking plies of a cover 2 of a strip of piping 5 having a central cord 3. The piping is stitched with stitches at the same time the plies of ticking are secured together. The bag is then turned inside out, and the corner, .as stitched, and appearing in Figure 3, will then assume the appearance of the corner appearing in Figure 4, with the piping retained atthe outside corner of the juncture of the piles of ticking.
As soon as the bag has been turned inside out, the padding material is inserted. Quilting 7 stitches are then taken across between the cover pieces, forming depressions 5 at spaced intervals throughout the area of the mattress. The corners may then be tucked, as indicated, with stitches 6 forming a pillow like bead along the border edges. In orderto improve the appearance of the mattress andto increase its permanency of thickness, further stitches 7 may be made through the sides of the mattress, forming side pleats.
After the mattress is otherwise completed, the piping will extend in a puckered line around the border edges. By slitting the cover of the piping at the corners and stretching the cord within the piping, either due to the compression of the pad- 9 ding within the pillow like bead or U0 some other unobvious reason, the piping will extend in a straight line around the corner edges, as is shown in Figure 2. After stretching the inner cord, the cord is stitched to its cover at the corners or in some other suitable position so that it remains taut.
' Ordinarily'the pulling of a draw string results in the hem, within which the drawstring is re- 100,
Having thus described my invention, What I cidental to the contraction, and then relieving the piping of its puckered condition by drawing the strand taut in the piping, and securing said strand in its taut condition.
2. In a mattress comprising a filler, a cover and hollow piping in unitary relation, with the piping incorporated in the periphery of one of the faces thereof, and a strand enclosed in the piping, said cover and piping being secured in contracted condition around the filler and a part of the cover adjacent to the piping being puckered by the contraction, and said strand being under tension greater than that of the adjacent puckered part of the cover, holding said piping substantially free of the puckered condition which it would have incident to its contraction with the cover.
