COLLAR OR THE LIKE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME Filed Oct. 20, 1934 S'5ATTORNEY i Patented Mar. 31, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE COLLAR OR THE LIKE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME 4 Claims.
- Among the principal objects which the present invention has in view are: To manufacture collars having the material thereof woven as of a heavy integral thickness, such as of multi-ply fabric; to produce a collar or the like for permanent or detachable to the wearing apparel, such as a shirt; to prevent the unraveling of the threads comprising the fabric along the hem edges; to produce the material providing the top edge with a pinked or notched edge; to produce the forward thrust or throat portion of the collar or the like with a similar pinked or notched edge; to avoid bulging or uneven appearance at the corner points of the collar; to provide an enlargednotch or cut-out portion in the hem adjacent said corner points to allow take-up in the material when forming the hem edges; to present a collar for attachment to a shirt having perfect corner point construction; and to obtain other 20 advantages and results as may be brought out in the following description.
Drawing Figure 1 is a face view of a blank strip of material from which a collar or the like is out, the outline of the collar being shown in broken lines;
Figure 2 is a face view of the collar blank shown as cut from the strip of material;
Figures 3, 41, 5 and 6 are similar views of one corner of the collar and showing the successive steps utilized in carrying out forming the collar.
Description As seen in the drawing, the reference numeral l0 indicates a strip of appropriate material, the body portion ll of which is shown as a woven material of a heavy integral thickness, preferably a multi-ply fabric having a selvage at least at the edge at the bottom of the collar. Referring to Figure 1, it will be understood that the first operation in collar making is cutting the collar blank from the strip of material I0 whereon is shown in broken lines the outline of a collar. Said collar blank may be cut from the material by suitable means (not shown) which is more specifically shown and described in my co-pending application Serial No. 752,192 filed November 9, 1934. The present disclosure is 50 furthermore an improvement over the method shown in Patent No. 1,934,154 issued to me November 7, 1933,
In cutting the collar blank [2 from the strip of material ill, the lowermost part of the blank at the corners preferably includes the selvage of the material and between those lowermost corners, the material is cut on an arc inwardly of the selvage. Heretofore, in cutting collar blanks from the material it has usually been done with a straight edge cutter, and in so doing the 5 threads comprising the woven material have unraveled thereby causing considerable wastage of material. According to the present invention, the collar blank l2 when out from the material is preferably provided at its longitudinal lower 10 arcuate part with a pinked edge or V-shaped notches l3 extending from adjacent the one end or selvage part of the corner to adjacent the other end. In the present disclosure the pinked or V- shaped notched edge interrupts or prevents any possibility of the threads deleteriously unraveling, thereby assuring the forming and preservation of a perfect hem, without wastage of material, also, assisting in the application of the binding and stitching the same thereto.
It will be noted that the pinked edge runs parallel to an indicated broken line l4, said broken line representing the fold line for creating the hem. At the outer ends of said broken or fold line [4 and on either side of the collar blank [2 the blank is cut to obtain an acute point l5 which includes the selvage I6 of the blank. The transverse edges of the collar blank likewise may be provided with a pinked edge I1, and in this instance the pinking does not occur along the full or entire edge, but begins next the point and extends part-way along said edge. Towards the acute point 15 and in the transverse pinked edge, it will be observed that the blank is provided with an enlarged V-shaped notch l8 substantially the depth of the hem, the purpose of which will be hereinafter more fully described. It further will be noted that a fold line I9 is indicated as extending upwardly at an angle from the extreme outer ends of the fold line M to the outside corner of the first notch of the pinked edge I1.
As seen in Figure 3, the first step is to fold the longitudinal hem edge along the fold line H, and then the material comprising the acute point l5 may be folded substantially simultaneously on the fold line l9, said corner resting on and overlying the end of the longitudinal hem edge. It will be noted that owing to the angle of the fold line IS the acute point substantially meets the outside point of one notch of the longitudinal pinked edge l3. Creasing and folding the hem and the corner point is effected in any suitable manner.
The next step, as illustrated in Figures 4 and. 5
is to complete the folding of the unfolded portion of the end hems on the fold line of Figure 3. In making this final fold, it will be observed that the folds meet at the corner thereby obtaining a perfect point 2|. In carrying out this fold the selvage [6 comprising the corner point I5 is folded upon itself thereby obtaining reinforcement for the corner, which during laundering operations will withstand the usual. rough handling and so forth. As will further be seen in Figure 4, the end hem after having been folded,
particularly the part comprising the corner will have a tendency of protruding or meeting the fold line 14, which in practice is disadvantageous.
To overcome this disadvantage of the hem protruding over the fold line i l, I now refer more particularly'to the large notch 13 shown in Figure 5. During the folding operation through mechanical folding means, the material comprising the hem is pushed slightly towards the said notch thereby closing the gap existing between one side wall of the notch and theother side wall. In other words, the spread of the notch is somewhat lessened simultaneously with the pushing of the material, heat is then applied which prevents the material from again spreading at the notch.
Upon completion of the folds, as indicated, a strip of tape 22 or other suitable material is then applied entirely around the hem and rows of stitches 23 are applied and the collar completed as shown in Figure 6.
I claim:
1. A method of manufacturing collars and the like comprising cutting a blank for providing a hem at two sides intersecting to make a corner, making a notch inwardly of the edge of one hem adjacent said corner, and folding the hems, contracting the notch and withdrawing the end of said notched hem back of the folded edge of the other hem.
2. A collar and the like comprising a body portion having a longitudinal and transverse hems with straight folded edges meeting at a corner, one of said hems intersecting the other hem at said corner, the first said hem having a notch htly back from its end enabling said end to be pressed inwardly toward said notch without disturbing the straight edges at the folds of the hems.
3. A collar and the like comprising a body portion having a longitudinal and transverse hems with straight folded edges meeting at a corner, one of said hems intersecting the other hem at said corner, the other hem having a notch slightly back from the folded edge and slightly spaced from its end with the portion of the material from said. end: to the notch pressed inwardly toward the notch and backfrom. the folded edge of the first said hem.
4:. A collar and the like having a longitudinal and transverse hems each provided with straight folded edges and meeting at a corner, said lon-.
gitudinal hem intersecting the transverse hem at said corner, each of said hems having aplurality of V-shaped notches with the transverse hem having an enlarged notch slightly. spaced back from the end at the corner, one wall. of
said enlarged notch being pressed inwardly to.-
ward the other wall and back from'thefolded.
edge of the longitudinal hem: whereby the said transverse hem with the enlarged notch will not overlapthe folded edge of said longitudinal hem.
