Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method for the manufacture of stockings, underwear and the like.
  • stockings and like articles can be made by cutting the whole of the stocking from a piece of fabric such as tulle, for instance, which is reinforced in the regions from which are to be cut the parts of the blank which are intended to form the portions of the article which must have the highest strength, that is to say, for instance, in a stocking, the top part, the heel, the toe and possibly the sole.
  • the so prepared fabric comprises the repetition of groups of portions which are not reinforced and of portions which are reinforced and from which blanks are cut out in such a manner that each of them comprises together the nonreinforced body of the article and the reinforced parts of the latter.
  • the reinforced parts of the blank which are to be lined are then folded on themselves and sewn together, then the so prepared blank is folded along its longitudinal axis and the edges which are to be united for formin the finished article are sewn edge on edge after which, if necessary, the article is pressed in the presence of heat to confer on it its definitive form.
  • the non-used reinforced parts having generally cost more to manufacture than the remainder of the fabric.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a method of manufacturing stockings or underwear and similar articles which allows the elimination of all the said disadvantages and con-- quizs to a manufacture of higher quality at lower cost.
  • This method essentially consists in preparing a fabric corresponding to the article which is to be made and in which the only reinforced areas of fabric are those which will form, after sewing, the reinforced parts of the stocking.
  • the reinforced parts of the fabric are strictly limited to the reinforced parts of the article to be manufactured; therefore, the area of the reinforced parts of the fabric is, with the exception of the seams, that of the reinforced parts of the article.
  • the blank is then cut out, as regards the parts of the article which are to be reinforced, along theedges of the reinforced surfaces of the fabric.
  • the reinforced part or parts which must form the lined part or parts of the article are sewn together edge on edge and then the whole of the so prepared blank is sewn edge on edge along the parts which are to be united.
  • Figure 1 shows a fragment of a fabric for the manufacture of stockings from a reinforced fabric, according to hitherto known practice.
  • Figure 2 shows a fragment of a fabric according to the invention and intended for the manufacture of a stocking.
  • Figure 3 shows a stockin made from the fabric shown in Figure 2.
  • Figure 4 shows a fragment of a fabric according to the invention and intended for the manufacture of a pair of drawers reinforced between the legs.
  • Figure 5 is a front view of the finished pair of drawers.
  • Figure 6 is a front view of a fragment of fabric according to the invention for the manufacture of a stocking with partially lined reinforcements.
  • Figure '7 shows one of the stockings obtained with the fabric according to Figure 6.
  • the reinforced fabric intended for the manufacture of stockings by cutting out and sewing comprised (see Figure 1) a fabric I from which the stocking blank was to be cut and a reinforced part 2 from which the reinforced parts were to be cut for the heel, the foot and the toe.
  • the folding for the manufacture of the stockings was effected along the lines A--A, A'-A and so on.
  • the cutting was effected along outlines such as 3, 4, 5, 6, I, 8, 9, II), II. It can be seen that, in the manufacture of a stocking by this method, the cutting out and the sewing can give rise to mistakes even if a tracing pattern is used.
  • the reinforcement of the fabric is strictly limited to the reinforced parts of the finished article.
  • the fabric is reinforced along the areas I2, I3, I4 and I5 and along the area which is delimited by the outline I6, I'I, I8, I9, 28, 2I, 22, 23 and I6 representing the reinforced parts of the fabric which exactly correspond to the reinforcements of the finished stocking shown in Figure 3.
  • I6 exactly represents the part of the fabric which, after cutting out and sewing, will form the heel, the foot and the toe of the stocking.
  • FIG 2 two very narrow reinforcements 25 and 26 may also be seen, which determine the outline for cutting out the blank of the stocking and which are subsequently comprised in therear seam 25, 26.
  • the body of the stocking is formed by the area of non-reinforced fabric 21 delimited by the outline I3, 25, I6, 23, 22, 2
  • the outline I2, I3, 25, I6, Il, I8, I9, 20, 26, I4, I5, I2 and I3 can be outwardly provided with a border formed of a very narrow band of fabric the stitches of which are larger than the stitches of the fabric proper.
  • a stocking such as that which is shown in Figure 3 and in which one can see the body of the stocking 21 made of nonreinforced fabric sewn from I3I4 to I628 and. from 22 to I3a and, on the other hand, the lined top part B, I3a, I3, I43, B and finally the heel, the foot and the toe which is sewn at 22,
  • the reinforcement from I3 to I6 and from I4 to 28 (indicated at 25 and 26) of the fabric area intended to form the body of the stocking permits the obtaining of a great regularity in the conformation of the said body during the sewing together of two edges 25 and 26.
  • the very narrow reinforcements 25, 26 which may be reduced, for instance, to the dimension of a strengthened stitch, can be used to provide a seam of the desired thickness along the said narrow reinforcements and without having to fold or roll the fabric nor to sew it with thicker threads or with a larger number of threads.
  • the piece of fabric is reinforced during weaving in all the areas which are delimited by the outline 28, 29, 38, 3
  • the blank is cut out from the piece of fabric along the outline 28, 29, 29a, 32, 33, 33a, 38, 39, 40, 4
  • the elasticity of the reinforced fabric which forms the waistband may be obtained in known ways by weaving elastic threads into the said reinforced parts I) and c. The only thing which then remains to do is to finish the pair of drawers in the usual manner, for instance by providing it with a border along the opening provided for the legs.
  • the method under consideration permits the provision of all the linings which the finished article must comprise and more particularly the linings of the toes and heels, in stockings.
  • the piece of fabric can be prepared, during weaving, so as to comprise complementary reinforced parts 45, 46 and 41 the outline of which corresponds to the desired lining.
  • the areas of the normal reinforcements and of the complementary linings are cut out according to the outline and then during the making of the stocking, the said complementary reinforcements are folded along the lines DD, EE, FF and sewn with their free edges onto the normal reinforcements.
  • a method for the manufacture of stockings and the like provided with reinforced portions which consists in weaving a fabric constituting a blank provided with reinforced portions which have substantially the exact form of the reinforced parts of the finished blank, in cutting the blank from the said fabric along the outline of the reinforced portions, and in uniting by means of a seam the edges of the blank, the sewing being Number effected, as regards the reinforced portions, along the edges thereof.
  • a method according to claim 1 which includes the steps of weaving narrow reinforcements which delimit the area of the fabric corresponding to the blank of the article to be made, in cutting out the blank and in uniting the edges of the said blank by means of a seam along the said narrow reinforcements.
  • a method according to claim 1 which includes the steps of weaving narrow reinforcements which delimit the area of the fabric corresponding to the blank of the article to be made, in cutting out the blank and in uniting the edges of the said blank by means of a seam along the said narrow reinforcements, the said reinforcements being incorporated with the seam.
  • a method according to claim 1 which includes the step of weaving along the edges of the reinforced portions a narrow band of fabric with stitches which are larger than the titches of the fabric constituting the body of the article to be made.
