Description
April 8, 1941.. W, SACKNER EDGING Filed July 24, 1939 INVENTOR. Wade 5 Jac/rner BY ATTORNEY5.
Patented Apr. 8, 1941 ED GING Wade E. Sackner, Grand Rapids, Mich, assignor to Grand Rapids Fibre Cord Company, Grand Rapids, Mich.
Application July 24, 1939, Serial No. 286,135
4 Claims.
This invention relates to edging for upholstered furniture and has for its objects:
First, to produce a new and improved edging.
Second, to produce such an edging which is suitable for use either as a seat front or spring edging and also for an edging on the arms and backframes of furniture to retain the padding or filling in position.
Third, to provide such an edging which is extremely pliable and which may be easily and simply applied at turns, sharp curves and angles on the furniture leaving an extremely smooth, even surface without any sharp breaks.
Fourth, to provide such an edging which has the necessary body for use in furniture but which also has resiliency and softness so that the feel of the edging to the user of the furniture is pleasing and so that undue wear of the fabric upholstery cover will not occur.
Fifth, to provide such an edging which may be made easily and inexpensively.
Further objects and advantages pertaining to details and economies of construction and operation will appear from the description to follow. The invention is defined in the claims. Preferred embodiments of my invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a view showing my improved edging with certain portions cut away to show the construction.
Fig. 2 is a detail sectional view taken on line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a view showing one method of forming the core for my improved edging.
Fig. l is a view showing the soft pad or blanket used as a covering for the core.
Fig. 5 is a View showing another core which may be used in place of the core of Fig. 3,
Fig. 6 is a view showing a different method of fastening the edges of the outer covering of the edging to form a thin lip.
My improved edging I consists of a core 2 made of tissue paper. Tissue paper has the necessary body and the necessary resilience for use as the inner core in my edging and is quite inexpensive. In the drawing, Figs 1-4, I show a form of my invention in which the core 2 is made up of tissue paper 3 which is twisted to form the cylindrical or rope-like core 2.
Tissue paper is suitable for use as an inner core r in my improved edging, but it does not have the necessary softness to give the proper feel and the proper resiliency to resist wear of the covering material. In order to give my core the necessary softness and feel, I apply a pad 4 to the core. This pad is formed of a material sold under the trade name Kimpak. It consists of sheets of cellulose tissue material and when slightly compressed has considerable resiliency and softness so that when it is applied over the tissue paper core 2, the finished edging has the desired feel, resiliency and softness. The pad 4 is a strip of the loose Kimpak material. The strip lies longitudinally of the core 2 and substantially surrounds it.
A fabric cover 5 preferably of burlap is applied around and enclosing the core 2 and the pad 4, slightly compressing the pad 4 and holding the pad and core in assembled position. The edges of the burlap cover without any padding material in them extend from the edging to form a thin attaching lip. In the form of invention shown in Figs. 1-4, a row of stitches ii join the edges of the fabric cover 5 at a point closely adjacent the pad and core. I prefer to have the stitches pass through the core so as to hold the outer covering and core together to prevent shifting of the core or the pad.
The pad 4 surrounds all portions of the core 2 and the finished edging has at all points the necessary softness for preventing undue Wear of the fabric cover and to give the desired feel to the padding.
In place of the core 2 used in Figs. 1-4, I may employ a core l2. This core consists not of twisted tissue paper, but of tissue paper which is compressed and formed into a cylindrical or rope-like form. The tissue paper I3 is retained in place by braided wrapping threads I4. A core thus made is as satisfactory as the twisted tissue paper core of Figs. 1-4 and may be produced at substantially the same cost.
In Fig. 6, I show another manner of fastening the extended edges 1 of the fabric cover 5 to form the thin attaching rib for my edging. In place of the row of stitches 6, I there employ a layer of cement [6 which serves to hold the fabric cover 5 in position on the edging to hold the core and the pad in assembled relation.
It will be apparent that my edging may be produced very inexpensively and that it will be superior to an edging formed simply of tissue paper. It will have the necessary softness and resiliency. It will be apparent that the edging formed is extremely pliable and may be employed on the arms and back frames of furniture and that it may be bent around sharp turns, due to the fact that the padding material does not extend out into the attaching web. This also makes the production of the cord less expensive.
The combination of the core and padding is particularly important when the cord is used on sharp bends because the cord has the necessary softness and resiliency to give a gradual, smooth bend rather than the sharper bend which would be obtained if stiffer material were used. The edging has, however, the necessary body in addition to the desired softness and resiliency,
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. An edging comprising a central core of tissue paper, a strip of soft cellulose tissue wadding of a Width to substantially cover said core folded around and substantially covering said core to form a shallow soft padding thereon, and a fabric cover embracing said core and strip with its edges extending laterally to form an attachingweb, and a row of stitches through said fabric extending adjacent the edge of and through said core and adjacent the edges of said strip of wadding to hold the elements of the edging in assembled relation. l
2. An edging comprising a central round core of tissue paper, a shallow covering pad of soft cellulose tissue wadding embracing and substantially covering said core, and a fabric cover embracing said core and pad.
3. An edging comprising a central core of tissue paper, a strip of soft cellulose tissue wadding of a width to substantially cover said core folded around and substantially covering said core to form a shallow soft padding thereon, and a fabric cover embracing said core and strip with its edges extending laterally to form an attaching web, and a layer of cementextending between the edges of said strip closely adjacent the core and pad to fasten said edges together and to hold the elements of the edging in assembled relation.
'4. An edging comprising a central core of tissue paper, a strip of soft cellulose tissue wadding of a width to substantially cover said core folded around and substantially covering said core to form a shallow soft padding thereon, and a fabric cover embracing said core and strip with its edges extending laterally to form an attaching web, and a row of stitches through said fabric extending adjacent the edge of said core and the edges of said pad to hold the elements of the edging in assembled relation.
