POINT FOR TRANSFER RINGS 1 Original Filed July 28, 1934 I TiTl.
INVENTCR SELMER ROINESTAD BY HIS ATTORNEYS Patented Dec. 1, 1936 UNITED STATES POINT FOR TRANSFER RINGS Selmer Roinestad, Kenosha,
Wis., assignor to Scott & Williams, Incorporated, New York, N. Y., a corporation of Massachusetts Original application July 28, 1934, Serial No.
737,446. Divided and this application December 24, 1935, Serial No. 56,092
'7 Claims.
This invention relates to transfer rings and more particularly to points therefor and it is an object of this invention to provide an improved point for transfer rings which will hold the loops in position thereon and particularly the loops of short rib tops for stockings where elastic is laid or knitted in the tops to serve as garters.
In the drawing Fig. l is a view in section of a transfer ring equipped with points in accordance with this invention, a fabric being shown on the points and engaged by a suitable weight device;
Fig. 2 is a view in section of the transfer ring inverted for transferring the fabric to machine needles, the weight device being positioned for use during knitting of additional fabric by the machine;
Fig. 3 is a view in elevation of a point; and
Fig. 4 is a transverse section on the line 4-4 of Fig. 3.
As shown in the drawing, a point I constructed in accordance with this invention has a body 2 of U-shaped cross section with the sides thereof tapering to a point 3 at an end of the device from a shoulder d on each side. Projecting from the body 2 at the base of the U-section inwardly from the point 3 of the device is an abutment 5 formed by pressing out the metal of the base of the U-section and which serves to prevent loops of the fabric being drawn from the body 2 by the tension under which the fabric is held when in position on the points and particularly in the case of short ribbed tops Where elastic is knit or looped in to serve in place of garters. The points I are arranged in a transfer ring 5 in the usual manner.
When a fabric 8 is in position on the points i in a transfer ring and particularly a fabric having elastic therein, the tendency of the fabric to draw the loops from the points is overcome by the engagement of the loops with the abutments 5 on the points and the fabric is held thereon until a weight device Hi can be engaged with the fabric. During the ravelling back of the fabric by the operator, the engagement of the loops on the abutments 5 aids in preventing the withdrawal of the loops from the points I by the pull on the fabric. After the fabric has been rave-lled back and the weight device withdrawn from the fabric the abutments 5 retain the fabric on the points during the turning of the transfer ring 6 and the application of the points to the needles [2 of a knitting machine for the transfer of the fabric thereto. Upon again applying the weight device I!) to the fabric, as shown in Fig. 2, the abutments 5 permit of the ready transfer of the fabric 8 from the points I to the needles i2 by applying pressure to the weight device II] or to the fabric directly.
The weight device ID is not claimed herein as it is disclosed and claimed in my co-pending application, Serial No. 737,446, filed July 28, 1934, of which application this application is a division.
What is claimed is:
1. A one piece point for transfer rings comprising a member of U-shaped cross-section having a loop retaining abutment projecting from the base of said U-section.
2. A one piece point for transfer rings comprising a member of U-shaped cross-section, the sides of said U-section tapering to merge with the base thereof to form a point and a loop retaining abutment projecting from said base.
3. A one piece point for transfer rings comprising a member of U-shaped cross-section the sides of said U-section having shoulders thereon and tapering from said shoulders to merge into a rounded point in the plane of the base of the U-section and a projection in the base of the U-section extending oppositely to the sides from said base intermediate the shoulders and the rounded point to retain loops on said member.
4. A transfer ring having a circular series of one-piece points of U-shaped cross-section arranged with the bases of the U-sections directed inwardly of the ring and provided with loop retaining abutments projecting inwardly of the ring from the bases of the U-sections.
5. A transfer ring having a circular series of points provided with loops engaging abutments thereon intermediate the length of said points, said abutments being directed inwardly of the ring and arranged to prevent the tension of stocking tops with elastic inlay when on said points withdrawing fabric loops from said points.
6. A transfer ring having a circular series of one-piece points of U-shaped cross-section, the sides of said U-sections tapering to merge with the bases thereof to form points, and loop retaining abutments projecting inwardly of said ring from the bases of said U-sections.
'7. A transfer ring having a circular series of one-piece points of U-shaped cross-section, the sides of said U-sections projecting outwardly of said ring and having shoulders thereon, said sides tapering from said shoulders to merge with the bases of said U-sections to form points, and loop retaining projections on the bases of said U-sections directed inwardly of said ring intermediate said shoulders and points.
SELMER ROINESTAD.
