  • the loops have one or two folded over ends. Where a loop has two folded ends, the stitch is made through the folded ends to the stitch is made through the one folded end at one end of the loop. At the other end of the loop, the stitch is made only through the top part of the loop.
  • the present invention relates to apparatus for automatically forming loops from a elongated piece of material and for delivering the loops sequentially to the sewing machine.
  • the apparatus includes a station where the individual pieces of material are cut; a station where the cut pieces of material are formed into a loop having one or two bent ends and a mechanism for delivering the loops to the sewing machine.
  • the apparatus also includes an arrangement for shifting the needle of the sewing machine from one end of the loop to the other while still holding the loop in a folded condition.
  • the apparatus of the invention is fully automatic in the sense that the operator no longer has to touch any part of the material to form the loop.
  • the speed of delivery of the folded loops from the apparatus to the sewing machine is under the control of the operator, preferably by the use of pedals or treadles which are a part of the sewing machine. It has been found that the apparatus can fold and deliver loops to the sewing machine at a rate which is considerably faster than what can be accomplished manually. This increases the speed at which the sewing machine operator can work and thereby decreases the end cost of the garment.
  • a further object is to provide apparatus which can form loops and deliver the loops to a sewing machine.
  • Another object is to provide apparatus for sequentially forming loops of material from an elongated piece of material and for sequentially delivering the loops to a sewing machine and holding them while they are sewn to a garment.
  • FIG. 1 is an overall side elevational view of one embodiment of the machine
  • FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the machine of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a front view of the machine looking along the lines 3-3 of FIG. 1 and showing the loop forming and loop transfer mechanism;
  • FIG. 4 is a top view showing the tape feed mechanism taken along the line 44 of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-section view of the tape feed mechanism of FIG. 4 taken along lines 5-5 of FIG. 4;
  • FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the front portion of the carriage for transporting cut pieces of tape from the tape supply to the loop forming mechanism and of the tape cutting mechanism looking along lines 6-6 of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 7 is a side view in cross-section of the mechanism for moving the tape from the supply to the cutter
  • FIG. 8 is across-sectional view of the mechanism of FIG. 7 taken along lines 8-8 of FIG. 7;
  • FIG. 9 is a side elevational view of the loop forming jaws taken along the line 9-9 of FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of the mechanism for delivering folded loops from the jaws to the sewing machine taken along lines 10-10 of FIG. 3;
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 are views similar to FIG. 3 showing a portion of the delivery system and the loop forming jaws in a different position;
  • FIGS. 13 and 14 are side views similar to FIG. 9 of the loop forming jaws and a portion of the delivery system shown in different positions of operation;
  • FIG. 15 is a section -view of the mechanism for delivering folded loops from the jaws to the sewing machine taken along the line 15-15 of FIG. 12;
  • FIG. 16 is a view in section similar to FIG. 15, but showing the mechanism for delivering folded loops in position for sewing the loop;
  • FIG. 17 is a top plan view of a portion of another embodiment of mechanism for transporting a folded loop from the folding station to the sewing machine;
  • FIG. 18 is a side elevational view, in cross-section, along lines 18-18 of FIG. 17;
  • FIG. 19 is a front view, partially in cross-section, of a portion of the loop delivery mechanism and a portion of the sewing machine;
  • FIG. 20 is a top view, in cross-section, along lines 20-20 of FIG. 19;
  • FIG. 21 is a side elevational view partly in cross-section, of the mechanism of FIG. 20.
  • FIG. 1 shows a general overall view of the machine, the various portions of which are described in detail below.
  • the machine is mounted on a base B and includes a supply reel 1 for fabric material mounted on a frame support 2.
  • the fabric material on the reel 1 is usually in the form of a narrow tape T, for example from about one-quarter to 1 inch wide which is to be used for making loops for such articles as pants, dresses, etc., through which a belt is to pass.
  • the term tape is used to designate all types of material of any width or length.
  • the machine will form loops from material of any manageable width which is consistent with the design of the apparatus.
  • lengths of the material can be used, for example in the order of one to several feet long, for short runs of making the loops or for better shade, color, matching or pattern matching.
  • the purpose of the machine is to take the tape T, which is fed in a continuous web, cut it into predetermined lengths, fold the predetermined lengths with one or two bent-under ends and then to deliver the completed bent loop to a sewing machine station.
