Application January 23,
Ll Claims.
My invention Vrelates to wearing apparel and particularly to trousers or pants,the invention having to do with the upper waist portieri of the garment, and particularly to the method of sewing the parts thereof together with the belt loops.
I-Ieretofore it has been the practice to construct the waistband of an inner lining, usually having a canvas or other suitable stifener and an outer band composed of the fabric of which the gar-` ment is made; the upper edge of the garment proper is sewn in between the outer and inner bands along the bottom edge of the same. Belt receiving loops are provided at intervals and these usually have their top ends tucked in between the upper edges of the inner and outer bands and sewn thereto by the top row of stitches which sews the inner and outer bands together along their top edges. The lower ends of the loops are then folded back upon themselves and sewn to the outside of the waistband at the bottom thereof, thus requiring` two sewing operations. Also the surplus portion of Y the lower ends of the loops must be clipped oli after sewing the loops to the lower portion of the waistband. This makes three operations, two sewing operations and one clipping operation. My invention has for an object to dispense` with the clipping operation and withV one of the sewing operations, and to reduce not only the labor involved in the making of a garment but also the amount of sewing thread used and the amount of material necessary for the belt loops.
Other objects will inv part be obvious and in part be pointed out hereinafter.
To the attainment of the aforesaid objects and ends, the invention still further resides in those novel details of construction, combination and rrangement of parts, all of which will be iirst fully described in the following detailed description, then be particularly pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the'accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a pair of folded knee pants embodying my invention.
Figure 2 is a sectional perspective view thereof taken on the line 2 2 of Figure 1. Y
Figure 3 is a diagrammatic perspective View showing the method of assembling and sewing the parts together in one operation.
In the drawing, in which like numerals of reference indicate like parts in all of the figures, 1 is the body portion of the garment to which the waistband is attached. The waistband consists of the lining band 4 usually reinforced by a stiif- 193s. sel-ramo. 653,141
(ci. L-236) ener of canvas or other suitable material 6, the edges 5 of the band 4 being folded over the stiffener 6 by means of a suitable binder attachment to the sewing machine. 2 designates the outer band of the material of which the body portion 1 is composed and this outer band also has its edges folded under, as at 3 3.
In carrying out my invention the parts are assembled as indicated in Figure 3, the top edge of the body portion 1 lying between the inner and Q5 outer bands 4 and 2, respectively. As the operator feeds the assemblage to the sewing machine (which is a double needle machine having the usual sewing needles 11 for simultaneously sewing the rows 9 and 10 of stitches) she puts the belt loop 7 over the band 2 and tucks their ends 8 under the same, see dotted lines, Figure 3, so that when the band 2 lies on the band 4, the ends 8 will be held between the outer and inner waistbands so that as the assemblage passes the sew- (7 5 ing needles they will sew through the belt loop 7 and its tucked under ends 8 at the same time sewing the parts 2, l and 4, together. Thus in one operation of sewing the parts 4, 1, 2 and 7 are simultaneously sewed together, it being understood that as the material is fed through the sewing machine the operator places additional loops 7 at proper intervals along the waistband 2.
By the use of my invention one operator can do the work of three and approximately one spool of thread out of every six spools is saved over the old method of sewing garments.
Other advantages of my invention will be clear to those skilled in the art.
What I claim is: 4
1. The method of assembling and sewing waistbands and belt loops together and to the upper edge of garments, which consists in taking an inner lining band and an outer band, placing the upper edge of the garment proper on the lining 95 band, placing the outer band over the lining band with the upper edge of the garment between the bands, taking belt loops and folding their two ends under the top and bottom edges respectively of the outer band whereby the folded under ends will lie between the inner and outer bands and feeding the assemblage to a double needle sewing machine whereby in one operation the parts will be sewn together with a top and a bottom row of parallel stitches.
2. rEhe method of assembling and sewing waistbands and belt loops together and to the upper edge of garments, which consists in taking an inner lining band and a; reinforcing strip and an outer band, placing the upper edge of the gar- #1 10 .geo
ment proper on the lining band, placing the outer band over the lining band with the upper edge of the garment between the bands, taking belt loops and folding their two ends under the top and bottom edges respectively of the outer band whereby the folded under ends will lie between the inner and outer bands and feeding the assemblage to a double needle sewing machine whereby in one operation the parts will be sewn together with a top and a bottom row of parallelstitches.
3. An article of wearing apparel comprising a body having an upper edge and a waistband cornprising an inner band and an outer band between which said upper edge is located, and b'eltyloops having their ends folded under the top andbottom edges of said outer band to lie betweenl said inner and outer bands, a single line of stitching securing the lower edges of bothof Isaid bands, the upper edge of said body and the'lower yends of said loops together, and a second line of loops located at intervals and crosswise of said outer band and having their top and bottom ends folded under said outer band, and a row of stitches along the bottom edges of said bands securing said bands and the upper edge of the l"garment and the Ylower ends of the loops together, :and a row of stitches along the top edges of said bands securing said bands and the upper ends ofnsaid loops together as and for the purposes de- Ascribed.
