5e 3Q, 1936. B. BRATMAN STITQHED CLOTH AND PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING SAME Filed Nov. 8, 1954- l INVENTOR EAR/v57 5H1? TAM/v.
Patented June 30, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE STITCHED CLOTH AND PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING SAME 4 Claims.
This invention relates to stitched cloth and processes of manufacturing same.
An object of thisinvention is to provide tuck stitched and shirred cloth for use in garments or other purposes.
A further object of this invention is to provide a. highly improved and economical process for manufacturing a tuck stitched and shirred piece of cloth.
Another object of this invention is to provide a highly improved garment having a tucked and shirred part to constrict a portion of the garment.
A still further object of this invention is to provide an elastic and durable stitched cloth of the character described, which shall be highly attractivein appearance, adapted for a large variety of uses, and which shall yet be practical and efficient to a high degree.
Other objects of this invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and
of which the scope of application will be indicated in the following claims.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is shown one of the various possible illustrative embodiments of this invention,
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of a piece of cloth embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged bottom plan view illustrating the tuck chain stitch in exaggeration.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged top plan view of a portion of my improved cloth; and
Fig. 6 is a rear elevational view of a vest having a tucked and shirred constricted portion at the back.
Referring now in detail to'the drawing, l0 designates a piece of substantially inelastic cloth or any other soft, flexible sheet, for example, silk, cotton, wool, or the like, stitched in the manner hereinafter explained, to produce a plurality of elongated tucked portions II and being shirred as at I2 whereby the stitched portion of the cloth is elastic. The tucking may be carried out on a tucking machine which applies a tuck chain stitch utilizing three threads. The tucking may be along parallel lines, as shown in Fig. 1, or otherwise arranged to produce any other suitable or desired design.
As illustrated in Figs. 2 to 5, the tuck stitching may be done with two inelastic threads l5 and a third elastic thread IT. The threads ii are sym- 5 metrically disposed with respect to one another and form similar stitching. The threads l5 pass upwardly through the cloth ID to form a pair of substantially contacting loops l8 and then downwardly through the cloth and beneath the cloth and forwardly as at l9, and then again upwardly to form the next pair of loops l8, and so on. The thread I! has a portion 20 passing through the first pair of loops l8, a portion 2| passing around the second pair of loops IS, a portion 22 going a back and also through the first pair of loops I8, and a portion 23 then passing forwardly and extending through the second pair of loops l8, and so on.
It will thus be seen that the thread I'I passes through a. pair of loops, then around the next pair of loops, and then back and through the first pair of loops, and then through the second pair of loops, and so on. The portions 2i of the thread I'I lie between the portions 20. 22, 23 of said. thread and the cloth. In accordance with my invention, the thread I! is elastic. Thus, upon forming the tucked stitching by reason of one of the three threads being elastic, a shirring is produced so that the cloth may be stretched. In making a waist, for example, the bottom portion of the garment may be tuck stitched along parallel adjacent lines to form a tucked and shirred band which will contract and yet be stretchable to permit donning and doffing of the waist over the head of the wearer. Preferably, after tuck stitching the cloth with the use of an elastic thread, the stitched portion of the cloth is steamed to cause the elastic thread to further contract and per- 40 mit a greater stretch. Obviously, any one or more of the threads l5, IT or even all of said threads may be elastic. It will be noted that the raised or tucked portion II is formed between the portions is of the threads I5. 45
In Fig. 6 there is shown a vest 33 having a back portion 30 and side portions 34 buttoned at the front in the usual manner. The back portion may be made as usual of silk, cotton or other fabric, and is preferably in two sections stitched together 50 at the center seam 3i. Said back portion 30 may be provided adjacent the bottom edge thereof with a tucked and shirred portion preferably extending to the side seams 32. This portion is elastic and constricted, thus eliminating the usual straps for drawing in the vest.
It will thus be seen that thereJs provided a device and process in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made.
of the above invention, and as various changes mightbe made in the embodiment set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein contained, or shown in the accompanying drawing, is to be interpreted asillustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:--
1. A piece of tuck stitched cloth, the tuck stitching including a pair of symmetrically disposed threads passing upwardly through the cloth to form a pair of substantially contacting loops and then downwardly through the cloth and beneath the cloth and forwardly, and then again upwardly to form the next pair of loops, and so on, and a third thread passing through the first pair of loops, then around the next pair of loops, and then back through the first pair of loops, and then forwardly again through the second pair of loops, and so on, said third thread being elastic.
2. The art of preparing a piece of fabric consisting in tuck stitching said fabric longitudinally with a three-thread chain tuck stitch, one of the threads of which is elastic, to produce an elongated tuck and simultaneously shir the fabric transversely of the tuck.
3. The art of preparing a piece of fabric consisting in tuck stitching said fabric longitudinally with a three-thread chain tuck stitch, one of the threads of which is elastic, to produce an elongated tuck and simultaneously shir the fabric transversely of the tuck, and then steaming the stitched portion of the cloth.
4. A piece of tuck stitched cloth, the tuck stitching including a pair of threads passing upwardly and then downwardly through the cloth to form a pair of loops on one side of the cloth, and then extending forwardly on the other side of the cloth, and then again upwardly and downwardly to form the next pair of loops and so on, and a third thread passing through each pair of loops, one of said threads being elastic.
BARNET BRATMAN.
