3 Claims. (Cl. 28-78) This invention relates to a novel deep pile article of manufacture and to the method of making it.
In the prior art, inserts of design area conguration disposed in a base area produced a resulting article of manufacture having an unnatural appearance of lumpy contour. Thus where a deep-pile black dog was sewn into a bathmat of white deep-pile, the dog had an unpleasing appearance due to the deep-pile fibers being rotated into the seam formed by the stitches.
It is an object of this invention to provide a deep-pile article of manufacture having a design outlined therein, said outline being formed by a plurality of filaments or guard hairs disposed above the normal plane of the filaments of the base material.
It is another object of this invention to provide an article of manufacture having displayed therein a design formed by a shadowy line.
It is a further object to provide novel rugs having designs therein of a heretofore unattainable appearance.
These and other objects of this invention will become apparent upon reading the following descriptive disclosure taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in which;
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a rug having outlined therein an animal made according to this invention,
Fig. 2 is a view taken on line 2 2 of Fig. l and showing the manner of elevating the design 'forming deep-pile iilaments above the plane of the deep-pile of the base material, and
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a segment of the strip material used to effect the outline of a design disposed in the base material.
Turning to the drawing a deep-pile base or mat for example, of rectangular configuration is made from deep-pile textile having a plurality of laments 11. The mat 10 may be made from any of the conventional synthetic fiber materials available for making synthetic furry base stock.
In effecting the designs of this invention, the mat 10 is cut to provide an outline of the desired object or animal. Where the design is cut peripherally the cut-out area is re-sewn back into place using a strip 12 of color contrasting deep-pile material intermediate the cut edges thereby outlining the design with the contrasting color. The strip 12 of deep-pile may be, for example, of black color whereas the mat 1t) is made of white deep-pile material.
The width of strip 12 is sewn along one edge only and is suitably narrow so as to be normally hidden from view. Y
The strip material is sewn vertically or on edge 13 in between two opposing edges of the base or mat 10 mate` rial. It is important to sew the edge 13 to the opposing edges of the base material so as to form a seam or line of stitches in substantially planar relationship to the back surface of the mat 10 (Fig. 2). This can be done where only one longitudinal edge of a narrow strip 12 is sewn Patented June 28, 1960 ice leaving the other longitudinal edge 14 unsecured and buried in the deep-pile.
As shown in Fig. 2 the filaments 15 of the strip 12 are disposed parallel to the iilaments 11 of mat 10 and extend above the level of the top of the filaments 11 (Fig. 2) The filaments 15 are preferably of suitable firmness to function like the guard hairs of natural animal fur. The guard hairs or filaments 15 of'strip 12 thereby form a nebulous line or a line of shadowy appearance. The filaments 15 are commingled with the iilaments 11, although in great measure the tips of the lilaments 15 extend beyond the tips of the laments 11.
The degree to which the filament tips of filaments 15 extend beyond the level of the tips 12 of the base 11i produces shadowy lines of varying qualities.
This degree of extension of tips of lilaments 15 beyond those of iilanients 1l may be effected by increasing the width of strip 12 or by using filaments 15 of suitably greater length than filaments 11.
Thus the seen shadowy line 16 forming the outline of the design (Fig. l) is made by the tips of a plurality of guard hairs or filaments 15 commingled in a vast expanse or area of base material 10.
This invention thereby in eiect orients all or substantially all the filaments 15 in parallel relationship to the filaments of the base material 10 thereby avoiding the hunched-up or lumpy quality of the prior art where many filaments of the strip material are disposed in confiicting relationship to the iilaments of the base material because of the curved edges given to the material sewn. The free edge 14 of the strip material of this invention avoids producing angularly or obliquely disposed filaments 15 on the free edge as well as on the sewn edge. Thus both edges 13- and 14 are free from round or curved sewn-in edge stresses of the prior art.
The design formed by a strip or plurality of strips 12 are of a three dimensional nature because of the elevated plane of the filament 15 tops relative to the tops of the filaments 11. Moreover, the three dimensional effect while present is not too sharply demarked but rather pleasingly nebulous giving a novel appearance to the article of manufacture.
This invention has been illustrated by means of a design on a mat but it is not to be restricted to its illustration since it is of generic scope.
Thus the strip 12 may be secured to the base material by Ymeans of adhesive in lieu of threaded seams. Other obvious modifications will become apparent to those skilled in the art after reading the above descriptive disclosure.
l claim:
l. An article of manufacture consisting of a design forming suitably narrow strip of deep-pile material ot suitable width disposed on one longitudinal edge into a base deep-pile material with substantially all the filaments of said strip being in parallel relationship to the filaments of said base material, the other longitudinalv or free edge of said strip being hidden in the deep-pile of said base material, whereby the tops of the filaments of said strip extend above the plane of the tops of the base material thereby forming a three dimensional outline of said design.
2. The article of manufacture of claim l wherein the strip of deep-pile material'is sewn to opposed edges of the base material.
3.- The article of manufacture of claim 2 wherein the sewn seam is substantially planar to the back of the deep-pile material. f
