PATENT OF ICE.
NEW YORK, ASSIGNOR OF. ONE-HALF TO GEORGE MANLEY, OF SUMMIT TOWNSHIP, NEW-JERSEY, AND WASH- INGTON MANLEY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
RUFFLING AND SHIRRlNG ATTACHMENT FOR SEWING-MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 243,104, dated June 21, 1881.
Application filed November 15, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OHARLEs HARGOURT CARTER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, .in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ruftlin g and Shirrin g Attachments for Sewing-Machines; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
One object of this invention is to utilize the hole or holes which have been drilled transversely or otherwise through the lower part or boss of the head of the Wheeler 85 Wilson or kindred machines in adapting it for use in the fastening of the rufliing or other attachment, so as to avoid the necessity and expense of drilling special holes for this purpose, as is sometimes practiced.
Another object of the invention is the improvement of the means for adjusting the throw of the feeder-plate of a ruffiing attachment.
Another object of the invention is to improve 3c the construction of the separator-plate of that class of ruflil-ing attachments in which this plate is secured to the bed of the machine, and the feeder-plate to the head of the machine, as illustrated in my Patent No. 234,242, dated No- 3 5 vember 9, 1880. This separator-plate is also applicable to the Toof, Johnston, and similar rufflers.
The invention consists in a frame adapted to fit over the lower part or boss of a sewing- 0 machine head, and secured thereto by a bolt, having a head preferably constructed to be locked against the lower arm of the goose-neck, and extended through the hole made in said head for the reception of the thread-cutter ap- 5 plied in the Wheeler 85 Wilson machine, and threaded at its outer end to engage a threaded hole in the frame, or to receive a nut exteriorly of the said frame.
The invention also consists in applying to the dog of a Garter ruffler, above referred to,
a swiveled threaded eye, provided with an adjusting-screw secured in an eye swiveled to the index-dog in such manner that said screw is capable of adjusting the arms of said dogs relatively to one another to vary the length of throw of the feeder-plate.
Finally, the invention consists in grooving the separator-plate to adapt it to receive a cord or tape or any other suitable material, which is introduced into ruffling, puffing, or shirring to strengthen the same.
In the accompanying drawings, in the several figures of which like parts are similarly designated, Figure l is a front side elevation of the head of a sewing-machine with my device applied. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the righthand side of my ruffler. Fig. 3 is a partial longitudinal section, enlarged, of the dogs and their adjusting devices; and Fig. 4, is a perspective and partial or broken edge view of the improved separator-plate.
a is the arm or goose-neck of the machine, having the lower head portion, 11, through which a hole is drilled, as indicated by the broken lines, in which hole is now placed a threadcutter by the Wheeler & Wilson company.
0 is the frame of my ruffler, made with a curved or otherwise-shaped extension, 01, having lugs or lips o, by means of which the frame may overhang the boss b.
f is a bolt, having a head, 9, cut away angularly, or beveled at h, to adapt it to fit against and be locked by the goose-neck, to prevent it (the said bolt) from turning when once in place. This bolt is driven through the threadcutter hole, displacing said cutter, which may be replaced when the bolt is withdrawn, and extends through a hole in the extension (1, its end being threaded, and a nut, i, employed exteriorly of the extension to bind the said extension and frame rigidly and securely to the sewing-machine head. The extension being curved or shaped like the sewin g-m achine head, and having the lips c, which rest upon the said head, the ruffler-frame is rigidly secured to the head with great stability. By utilizing the thread-cutter hole I save the expense of drilling a special hole for the attachment of the ruftler and, besides, by the self-locking screw, I obtain a very strong and secure fastening at small expense, and of great simplicity and efficiency.
It is preferable to make the bolt with its head as described; but such construction is not essential, and the head may be plain.
The boltfand nut 2 act as a clamp to tighten the frame to the machine. Instead of the nut i, the extension (I may have a threaded hole to receive the boltf. In some machines two or more holes are already drilled, as in the Remington, New Home, &c., and in such machines two or more bolts or their equivalents, 2', may be used.
The dogs 70 l, actuated by the needle-bar, for operating the feeder-plate-carryin g arm m, are adjustable relatively to one another, to vary the throw of the feeder-plate n,by means of a set or regulating screw, 0, carried in a threaded eye, 1), swiveled to the dog k, and having its other end secured in an eye, q, swivelcd to the dog I. The end of the screw in the swiveled eye qis held therein rotaril y by means of a pin, 7, playing in a groove, 8, in said screw. Said screw is thus fixedly connected with the dog I, while free to turn in its eye, and thereby, as said screw is adjusted in the screw-eye p, it causes the dogs, or rather their outer ends, to approach to and recede from one another, to vary the distance between them, and so Vary the extent of oscillation of the arm m consequent upon the action of the needle-bar on the dogs, and finally effect the required length of movement of the feeder-plate n in making ruffles or gathers of different fineness.
My improved separator-plate, for use on the bed-plate when the ruffler proper or feederplate is attached to the head of the machine, is constructed with a number of holes, which are so placed as to adapt it for use on a variety of sewing-machines 5 and to this end I adjust the screw-holes correspondingly and mark them, as D for the Domestic, W St W for the Wheeler 85 Wilson, and so on, the screw being put in the hole marked with the 'name of the machine upon which the plate is to be used.
To adapt this separator-plate for use in making ruffiing or puffing employing a strengthening tape, cord, braid, or any other suitable material, I form a groove, t, in the under face of the feed-dog-coverin g portion a, through which groove the tape or cord or braid is fed. This groove may be rectangular or curved, as shown.
My separator-plate employing the groove is also applicable to the Toof, Johnston, and other rufflers, and is attachable thereto in the same manner as the ordinary plate.
It will be understood that the separator-plate is shown in Fig. 4 in somewhat exaggerated proportions, this the better to illustrate its formation.
What I claim is- 1. In a ruffiing or shirring attachment for sewing-machines, the frame thereot', provided with an extension, d, having lips e, and adapted to fit about the head of the sewing-machine, and combined with a bolt, f, passed freely through an unthreaded holein the sewing-machine head to attach it thereto, substantially as described, the said hole not being specially drilled therefor.
2. The combination, with the dogs for operating the feeder-plate, of swiveled eyes and an adjusting-screw, substantially as and forthe purpose described.
3.. A separator-plate havinga portion adapted to cover a sewing-machine feed-dog, and provided with a groove to adapt it for use in making ruffling or putting in which a stay of cord, braid, or tape is introduced, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CHAS. H. CARTER.
