Definitions

  • a conventional quilting machine of the endless guidetrack type comprises: (A) a sewing machine having an an upper thread-sewing mechanism and a lower threadlocking mechanism; (B) a stationary floor-mounted main frame having (1) a pair of horizontally-spaced verticallyarranged side standards and (2) a pair of vertically-spaced horizontally-arranged cross members extending from one side standard to the other, including (a) a transverse base frame for the lower thread-locking mechanism and (b) a transverse head frame for the upper thread-sewing mechanism; (C) movable carriage means mounted on the floor to support a workpiece for operative universal uniplanar movement relative to said sewing machine, said carriage means including (1) a lower carriage mounted on the floor for longitudinal back and forth movement, and (2) an upper carriage mounted on the lower carriage for transverse back and forth movement; (D) an elongate endless guide-track shaped to reproduce a given sewing line pattern or design and stationarily mounted on the upper carriage with its lengthwise dimension extending parallel to the lengthwise dimension or longitude of the quilt
  • Size-number 5(b) normally varies in W from 72 to 80.
  • Size-number 5(b) normally varies in L from 74 to 84.
  • the present invention relates broadly to quilting machines having one or more sewing machines.
  • One of the principal objects of the present invention is to provide a quilting machine which can be easily, quickly and inexpensively adapted to sew one pattern over one area of one length and one width (say half-width or full-width) on one size of quilt-assembly in the twin-size to king-size range, which can be easily and quickly changed to sew the same pattern over a different area of say the same length and a different width on a different size of quilt assembly in said range.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to provide a quilting machine with an improved guidetrack which can be used in sewing one pattern over a wide range of different areas on a corresponding range of differently-sized quilt-assemblies.
  • my invention may be carried out by doing the following: (1) providing a king-size guide-track having transverse end edges at opposite ends of its largest (i.e. king-size) length dimension and longitudinal side edges at opposite ends of its (king-size) width dimension; (2) interrupting that guide-track along different longitudinal narrow band-like limits which are parallel to one longitudinal side edge and which are spaced therefrom at different distances corresponding to the different width dimensions desired; and
  • each turn-around section restricting the sewing operation to the corresponding width and each extension section extending the guide-track beyond the limit provided by the turnaround section it replaces.
  • a single king-size guide-track will provide a twin-size width from one of its longitudinal side edges to the first interruption, a three-quarter width from that same longitudinal side edge to the second interruption, a full-size width to the third interruption and a queen-size width to the fourth interruption.
  • an extension section is placed in each internuption.
  • a turn-around section is placed in the first or twin-size interruption.
  • a turn around section is placed in the interruption corresponding to that larger size while an extension section is placed in each interruption which corresponds to each smaller size.
  • one single guide-track, sectionalized for transverse adjustment tfrom twin-size to king-size is used in combination with one sewing machine, that combination will sew a twin-size design completely across the width of a twin-size area and each larger design completely across the width of each larger sewing area.
  • This arrangement presents no problem.
  • one sewing machine will sew a twin-size design completely across the width of one-half of the sewing area of a twin-size quilt assembly while the other sewing machine will duplicate that design at a transverse distance equal to the needle spacing. This presents problems.
  • the guide track will cooperate with one sewing machine to sew one 14" wide design on one-half of the 28" wide sewing area of the twin-size quilt assembly while the other sewing machine will sew a duplicate 14" wide design 14 inches away.
  • the 14" wide designs will be in side-by-side relationship on the 28" wide sewing area without one design overlapping the other or being spaced from the other.
  • the duplicate king-size half width designs will be in side-by-side edge abutting relationship aggregating the full king-size width of 64".
  • the sewing machines will cooperate to sew duplicate 14" designs, which are spaced some 32 inches apart on a center-tocenter basis.
  • their inner edges will be spaced some 18" apart and this spacing, plus their respective 14" widths, will produce an aggregate width of 46" from the outer edge of one design to the outer edge of the other design.
  • the twin-size sewing area available is only 28"
  • the 46" aggregate width of the two patterns exceeds the available sewing area by some 18".
  • Another important object of this invention is to overcome this difliculty in sewing duplicate patterns over a range of different widths and to make possible the sewing of (full, overlapping or spaced) duplicate designs of desired widths in each different size over the full range of widths.
  • This object is accomplished by sectionalizing the guidetrack for adjustment in width (throughout the range desired) and by sewing the variable width dimension of the duplicate patterns in directions parallel to each other instead of toward and away from each other. More particularly, this phase of my invention is accomplished by mounting both the unsewn quilt assembly and the guidetrack for that assembly on the quilting machine with their corresponding length-dimensions extending across the machine rather than along the machine and with thevariable width dimension of the guide-track and the corresponding width dimension of the quilt-assembly extending along the machine rather than across it.
  • the relatively constant lengthwise dimension of one design is sewn lengthwise on the top or bottom half of the quilt assembly but crosswise on the machine while the (variable) width dimension of said one design is sewn crosswise on the same half of the quilt-assembly but lengthwise along the machine.
  • the duplicate design is similarly sewn across the other half of the quilt-assembly.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a quilting machine of the type using two transversely spaced sewing machines, the guide track being schematically shown in a somewhat conventional manner;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a king-size guide-track sectionalized in accordance with my invention
  • FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the guide track of FIG. 2 with all removable sections removed therefrom;
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary view of the FIG. 3 guide-track with a removable turn-around section in the twin-size interruption;
  • FIG. 5 is a fragmentary view similar to FIG. 4 but showing a turn-around section in the three-quarter width interruption and an extension section in the twin-size interruption;
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view of the FIG. 3 guide-track with extension sections in the 1st three interruptions and a turn-around section in the 4th or queen-size interruption;
  • FIG. 7 is a top plan view of a removable turn-around section used for the twin-size width
  • FIG. 8 is a plan view of the extension section used in the twin-size interruption
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 are plan views of the turn-around and extension sections used in the three-quarter, full-size and queen-size interruptions.
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 are removably mounted track sections for changing the sewing path.
  • the quilting machine shown in FIG. 1 conventionally comprises: (A) a support; (B) a pair of sewing machines; (C) movable carriage means; (D) an endless guide-track means; and (E) drive means.
  • the element A support is provided by the floor Al on which the quilting machine rests and a stationary floormounted metal frame having a pair of horizontally-spaced vertically-arranged side standards A2 and a pair of ver tically-spaced horizontally-arranged upper and lower cross frame members A3 and 4A extending from one side standard to the other and secured to both, the upper cross member A3 constituting head frame A3 and the lower cross member A4 constituting base frame A4.
