A rzole/vsv United States Patent 2,979,128 near 211's TAPE Nicholas Murgolo, 400 Maple Grove Ave., Uniondale, N-Y.
Filed Mar. 12, 1958, Ser. No. 720,915
1 Claim. (Cl. 160-348) This invention relates to a novel pleat pin used in the drapery art and to said novel pin in combination with a novel drapery tape.
It is an object of this invention to provide a six prong pleat pin.
It is a further object to provide a pleat pin for making box pleats.
It is a further object to provide a drapery tape useable in combination with the pin to form a box pleat.
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 front view of a portion of the tape showing in a break-a-way manner a piece of drapery sewn to a part of the tape,
Fig. 2 is a section view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 3 is a front view of a box pleat made with the six prong pin showing the location of the pin prongs,
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the six prong pin,
Fig. 5 is a top view of the pin,
Fig. 6 is a rear view of the pin, and
Fig. 7 is a side view of the pin with one of the pin prongs broken away to show the manner of affixing the hanger loop.
Turning to the drawing, the tape 10 is sewn to the drape 11 by top stitches 12 and bottom stitches 13.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the tape 10 consists of a longitudinal web folded longitudinally along a top fold line 14. The folded tape thus consists of a front panel 15 and a rear panel 16. The bottom edges of both panel 15 and panel 16 are turned inwardly toward one another and sewn together by stitch line 17.
As shown in the drawing the back panel 16 extends below the front panel 15. Furthermore, the stitch line 17 is of unique configuration in that it forms finger-like prong receiving pockets 18 having prong receiving openings 19 on each side of a single pocket 18.
Thus the tape 10 is unique in that it is adapted to receive pin prongs within each pocket 18 formed by stitches on three sides or the pin prongs may be inserted on each exterior side of the pockets 18.
As shown in Fig. 1, the stitch line 17 undulates between adjacent pockets 18. Thus stitch line 17 (Fig. 1) rises to form a vertical leg 21 which continues at its top as stitch portion 22 and then communicates with leg 23. Thus stitch lines 21, 22 and 23 form a finger pocket 18.
The right side of stitch line 26 connects to a descendingly inclined stitch line 27 which connects at its base with stitch 28 disposed entirely in the back panel 16.
2,979,128 Patented Apr. 11, 1961 .5 cl rqs sl on a h side o e h P k 1 ar a l of receiving a drapery pin prong as will be hereinafter si scribed- Turning to the pin shown in Figs. 4-7, each drapery pin'consists of two identical side U-shaped elements 30, each element 30 having a front prong 31 and a like rear prong 32 connected at their base by an integral bridge 33.
As shown in Fig. 5, the two side members 30 are connected to a middle or intermediate U-shaped element or member 34. Element 34 consists of a pair of identical prongs 35 joined together by a suitable short bridge 36.
The side or lateral elements 30 are joined to the intermediate element 34 by conventional solder or welding. As shown in Figs. 6 and 7 the prongs 35 are preferably of shorter length than lateral prongs 31 and 32 but they may be of equal length if so desired.
A conventional hanger lo0p 37 is soldered tothe base or bridge 36 of element 34, thereby permitting the pins to be secured to a drapery pole.
An important feature of this pleat pin is that the plane of the bridge elements 33 are in parallel relationship to the plane of the hanger loop 37.
In order to describe the formation of the box pleat of Fig. 3, the pleat pin prongs" have also been given letter indicia a to f inclusive (Fig. 4).
In forming the box pleat of Fig. 3 the pin prong a (Fig. 4) is inserted into finger pocket A; next prong b is inserted into finger pocket B; next prong c is inserted under edge 19 into the non-finger pocket C located to the left (Fig. 1) of finger pocket X; next-prong d is inserted into the non-finger pocket D located .to the right of finger pocket X; next prong e is inserted into the finger pocket E and lastly prong d is inserted into the finger pocket D. The result is the novel box pleat of Fig. 3 having a front panel L and side panels M and N disposed respectively on each side.
The tape of this invention may be a stitchless or woven tape having three contiguous woven-in prong receiving finger pockets disposed in suitable spaced-apart relationship from the next group of three contiguous woven-in finger pockets. In short the woven tape consists of a plurality of groups of three contiguous woven-in prong receiving pockets suitably spaced-apart from the next group of three woven-in finger pockets.
In inserting the pleat pin of this invention into the woven tape described above, five consecutive groups of three pockets are used. Thus prong a is inserted in the middle or center pocket of the first group of three pockets, prong b is inserted in the center of the next or second group of three contiguous pockets, prongs c and d are inserted in the respective exterior pockets of the third group of three pockets leaving vacant the middle pocket of this group, prong e is inserted in the middle pocket of the fourth group of three woven-in contiguous pockets and prong f is inserted in the middle pocket of the fifth group of three contiguous pockets. like that shown in Fig. 3.
I claim:
In an integral continuous folded drapery tape having a fold forming a front panel having a horizontal edge and a rear panel having a portion extending beyond said edge of said front panel, said front panel and said rear panel being sewn together by a continuous stitch line, said stitch line having a plurality of spaced-apart horizontal sections disposed entirely in said extending portion of said rear panel parallel to and below said edge of said front panel, and vertical pocket forming stitch line sections disposed through both said front and said rear panel in perpendicular relationship to and respectively between said horizontal stitch line sections, said vertical The result is a box pleat stitch line sections extending substantially to said fold, the improvement comprising a center segment of each of said horizontal stitch line sections extending upwardly to provide a portion disposed through said frontandsaid' rear paneiand adjacent the horizontal edges" of said front panel, whereby said horizontal stitch line section isipr ovided with twoadditional pockets, said additionalipockets being disposed one each side of and contiguous to said vertical pocket forming stitch line sections.
