SEPARATOR-PLATE FOR SEWING-MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 406,316, dated July 2, 1889.
Application filed November 26, 1887. $erial No. 256,227. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: E, which I prefer to makein the curved form Be it known that I, MELZAR G. TURNER, of shown. The arm E carries the separator-plate WVestborough, county of lVorcester, and State J, the lower end of the arm being above the of Massachusetts, have invented certain new work-plate A a sufficient distance to enable and useful ImprovementsinSewing-Machines, the work to be freely passed under the arm 5 5 of which the following is a specification, referand under the separator-plate at the point at ence being had to the drawings accompanywhich the plate is attached to the arm.
ing and forming a part hereof, in whi'oh- The separator-plate J is preferably of the Figure 1 is a front elevation of the machine form shown in Fig. 2, the end a of the rear [0 above the work-plate so far as necessary to portion thereof being turned upwardly, formshow my improvements. Fig. 2 is a top view, ing a flange at right angles to the body of the looking down from the line x 00, Fig. 1. Fig. plate to enable the plate to be pivoted, as 3 is a front end view of a complete machine shown at b, to the lower end of the arm E, the embodying my invention. pivot extending through the flange a and the I 5 My present invention is an improvement lower end of the arm. A stud m, set in the on the invention shown and described in Letarm E, projects through a short slot in the ters Patent No. 312,306, dated February 17, flange a and assists in securing the separator- 1885;, granted to me. In the device there plate in position and steadyin g it in its moveshown and described the separator-plate is ments.

The lever H is provided with two proin my said patent is incapable of being easily jections c and cl. The projection c is in front raised to admit of the insertion of the work, of the pivot, and serves to throw and hold the and this is also objectionable. plate down, so that its forward end rests upon To avoid these objectionable features is the the work, as shown in full lines, Fig. 1. The
0 chief object of my present invention, which projection d on the opposite side of the pivot consists in-a separator-plate constructed and of lever 11 serves to raise the plate when the mounted as hereinafter more fully described, Q lever is thrown down, as shown by the dotted in combination with a rui'fler-feed below the lines, Fig. 1. work-plate. The separator-plate has a certain amount 3 5 As my invention may be applied to various of spring, and its inner end, which is over the forms of machines adapted to do ruffling ruffler-feed, is thus held in spring contact which are well known, I need not describe with the upper surface of the work, while the such machines in detail, and will confine my under surface of the work is being acted 011 description to my present improvements. One by the ruffler feed or blade L, carried by the 40 form of such machine is set forth in my patblock M beneath the work-plate A, said block out, No. 312,306, to which I have already rebeing operated by the eccentricN and spring ferred. O, as in my patent, No. 312,306, hereinbefore The letters of reference will be found on referred to. the accompanying drawings, and are used, to In the operation of my device the fabric to 5 designate the parts referred to. be ruffled passes between the work-plate A A represents the work-plate, and B a part and the separator-plate J, the fabric to which of the frame of the machine which supports the ruffle is to be sewed passing above the the needle and presser-foot bars O and D, resaid separator-plate. The ruffier-feed L has spectively. To the frame, directly behind the a longer throw than the work-feed P. In 0p- 50 needle and presser-foot bars, I secure an arm erat-ion the said rufller-feed is'moved upward o'o through an opening in the work-plate into contact with the fabric passing below the separator-plate and then forward to form the ruflie or gather, which is sewed to the superposed fabric by the stitch-forming devices, the milling operation being thus essentially the same as in the machine shown by my patent hereinbefore mentioned.
An edge-guide is shown at K, secured in the usual manner 011 the work-plate. hen, however, the machine is to be used on wide fabric, this edge-guide is removed.
In putting work into or taking it from the machine the lever II is thrown up, raising the separator-plate, so as to permit the work to be freely passed under it. \Vhen the work is in position, the lever is raised and the forward or inner end of the separator-plate is thrown down, holding the work against the ruifierfeed.
As will be obvious, the separator-plate may be rigidly secured to the arm E instead of being pivotally connected therewith, in which case the lever II will not be required. I prefer, however, to construct the separator-plate as shown for convenience in gettin the work into and out of the machine.
Vhat I claim is- 1. In a sewing-machine, the combination, with a rufiier-feed below the work-plate and means for operating said ruliler-feed, 01"; the supporting-arm E, secured to the frame of the machine above said work-1: late, the separator-plate J, pivotally attached to said arm, and a lever also pivoted to said arm and having a part or projection, as c, to engage the said separator-plate forward of its pivotal point, and thus depress the forward end of said plate, substantially as set forth.
2. In a sewing-machine, the combination, with a ruffler-feed arranged below the workplate and means for operating said rufllerfeed, of a. supporting-arm E, secured to the machine-frame above the work-plate, a separator-plate J, pivoted at its rear end to the said arm E, and the lever II, also pivoted to said arm and having projections a (Z on opposite sides of its pivotal point to engage said separator-plate and depress or raise the forward end thereof, substantially as set forth.
