Description
Aug. 28, 1962 w. SIMPSON HOOK FASTENINGS FOR GARMENTS Filed Dec. 1, 1958 FIG I United States Patent 3,050,740 HOOK FASTENINGS FOR GARMENTS William Simpson, Handsworth, Birmingham, England,
assignor to Newey Brothers Limited, Birmingham, England, a company of Great Britain Filed Dec. 1, 1958, Ser. No. 777,293 Claims priority, application Great Britain Dec. 21, 1957 1 Claim. (Cl. 2-265) This invention relates to hook fastenings for garments and more particularly to hook tape in which spaced hooks are secured to a folded fabric tape which is adapted to be stitched to a garment, the hooks co-operating with similarly spaced eyes on a tape adapted to be stitched to another part of a garment.
For some purposes it is desirable that the hooks should be as close as possible to an edge of the garment so that this edge can abut against the edge of another portion of the garment carrying the eye tape and there is no overlapping.
Hitherto this has involved two separate operations in stitching the hook tape to the garment. The edge portion of the tape extends laterally beyond the hooks and this is stitched to the garment first with the bill of the hook uppermost. The garment is then folded back and the other edge is secured by a second line of stitching parallel to the first.
According to my invention, in hook tape for stitching a garment with the hooks located substantially at an edge of the garment, the bills of the hooks are formed from two substantially parallel wires spaced apart at such a distance as to allow a needle to pass between them and the tape is stitched to a garment by a two-needle machine producing two parallel lines of stitching of which one is close to the hook edge of the tape and intersects the line of hooks, and the other is close to the other edge of the tape.
The stitching of the hook tape to a garment can thus be eilected in a single operation, which results in a considerable saving of time and labour.
Further advantages are that the extended portion of the tape beyond the bills of the hooks which receives the first row of stitching in the normal construction is no longer necessary, and the row of stitching at the edge is much closer to the books so that the hooks cannot draw away from the garment under strain.
A length of hook tape stitched to a garment in accordance with my invention and one of the hooks employed are illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a plan of a length of hook tape stitched to a garment,
FIGURE 2 is a view of a portion of FIGURE 1 from the back,
FIGURE 3 is an end view of a portion of the garment and of the hook tape before being stitched together.
FIGURE 4 is a perspective view of one of the hooks.
The hook tape illustrated comprises a folded strip of fabric to which hooks 11 are stitched at regularly spaced intervals by stitching 12. The hooks are of the form shown in FIGURE 4, the bill 13 of the hook being formed of a wire loop having parallel sides, the two sides Patented Aug. 28, 1962 being continuations of curved loop portions 13a and 13b which are spaced apart at such a distance that a needle can pass between them. The fabric forming the tape has its edges folded over inwardly and then is doubled over so that the lower folded edge 14 projects slightly beyond the upper folded edge as shown in FIGURES 1 and 3, and the hooks are stitched into position between the layers With the outer ends of the bills substantially in alignment with the edge 14 or set in only very slightly from that edge.
To apply the tape to a garment, the tape is placed on the garment with the edge 14 of the tape in alignment with the edge of the garment, which may be folded over as shown at 15, and the tape is stitched to the garment in a single operation by a twoneedle sewing machine producing two spaced lines of stitching 16, 17. The line of stitching 16 passes through the edge 14- of the tape and intersects the supporting loop portions 13a and 13b of the bill 13 or the curved portions thereof, whereby the stitching loops of theline 16 may be drawn downwardly over the outer ends of the bill loops 13a and 13b upon the application thereof by the sewing machine needle. The other line of stitching 17 lies close to the inner edge of the tape and behind the attachment parts of the hooks.
The stitching of the hook tape to the garment may conveniently be effected in a machine having an attachment as described in the specification of my co-pending application No. 777,320, filed Dec. 1, 1958, now Patent No. 2,960,944, the machine incorporating means for guiding the hook tape and for momentarily displacing a hook as the needles descend if a wire of the hook bill should be in the path of a needle.
What is claimed is:
A garment fastening assembly comprising in combina tion: a hook tape having spaced longitudinal edges and a plurality of hooks secured at spaced intervals along said tape, eachof said hooks having a bill defined by a pair of wires spaced by a distance at least as great as the thickness of a needle, the outer ends'of said bills being a smoothly curved loop portion of the wires and positioned substantially flush with one edge of the tape; a garment having a longitudinal edge; and a substantially straight line of stitching securing said hook tape to said garment along the longitudinal edge thereof, said line of stitching being close to the said one edge of said tape under the outer ends of said bills with at least one point of stitch penetration through the tape located between the Wires defining the bill of each of said hooks.
