SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 422,625, dated March 4, 1890.
Application filed January 11, 1890. Serial No. 336,684. (No model.)
To a/ZZ whom, it may concern: Y
Be it known that I, MAURICE PRICE, of New `York city, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Machine for Turning and Pressing the Edges of Shirt-Bosoms, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to an improved Inachine adapted for turning and pressing the edges of shirt-besoins, 85e., in the process of forming the seams, and has for its object to provide a means whereby the marginal edges of shirt-besoins having a curved, pointed, or irregular lower end or sides may be expeditiously, conveniently, and evenly laid and fixed ready for sewing. i
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar figuresl of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 isa plan View ofthe machine. Fig.
2 is a longitudinal section on line 0c of Fig.`
1, and showing the bosom-board and framein position under the forming-plate. Fig.Y 3 is a transverse seotion'on line y y of Fig. 2.
Great difficulty has heretofore been experienced in evenly laying or forming the marginal edges of shirt-besoins whose lower end isconvexed, diamond-shaped, or of irregular contour, and it is the primey object of this invention to providea machine of simple and durable construction whereby the said ma'rginal edges, no matter how irregular the margin of the shirt-bosom may be, can be without the slightest difficulty formed, laid, and.
pressed ready for sewing. To that end the machine is constructed withV a base 10, preferably flat, upon which base, at each side of the center, an upright 11 is formed, the said uprights being made to extend from the front of the machine to a point at or near its back.
Each of the uprights 11 is provided upon its inner upper surfacewith a recess forming a slideway 12.
Upon the rear portion of the uprights -a forming-plate 13 is supported, which plate, when the lower end of the bosom is conveXed, as illustrated, is made to partake somewhat of a horseshoe shape, as shown in Fig. 1, the marginal edge of the forming-plate 13 being preferably curved vertically downward, as shown in Fig 2, whereby a space open at the lower side only is obtained between the sides of the uprights 11 and the contiguous surface of the plate. Vithin this space pipes 14 are secured in any suitable or approved manner, perforated, when gas is employed, in order to heat the forming-plate; but if in practice it is found desirable steam or other heat may be substituted for gas.
I desire it to be distinctly understood that y while the general contour of the plateillust-rated is preserved, the rear end of the plate adapted to cover the bottom of the bosom in the operation of laying the edge maybe va-` ried in shape to correspond with the contour of the bosom to be pressed.
In front of the forming-plate 13 a skeleton frame 15 is fitted to slide'in the ways 12 of the uprights 11, which skeleton frame is shaped to the contour of the bosom and corresponds with the shape of the plate. This frame is angular or L-shaped in cross-section, as best shown in Fig. 2, and is ordinarily and preferably provided with a handle 16 at its forward end to facilitate manipulation. Upon the horizontal member of this skeleton frame a bosoIn-board 17 is placed. This bosom-board may be constructed of wood or of any desired material, and while fitting quite snugly in the frame is capable of being readily raised out therefrom. A cover-board 18 is used in connection with the bosom-board 1,7, which cover-board also conforms to the contour of Athe skeleton frame, but is of less width and length than the bosom-board.
Two rock-shafts 19 and 2O are held to turn in suitable bearings projected upward from the base between the members of the formin g-plate 13. Both of these shafts extend preferably to the rear end of the base and are each provided with a spur-wheel 21, arranged to mesh. But one of the shafts only is carried to the forward end of the machine, and this shaft is at said end provided with a suitable crank-arm 22. Thus by rocking the shaft 19, through the medium of the handle 22, movement is communicated to the second -parallel shaft 2O by means of the gears 21.
Between the members of the forming-plate IOO each shaft 19 and 20 is provided with two or more, preferably two, attached cams 23.
In operation the bosom-board is placed in position within the skeleton frame l5. The shirt-bosom is then placed upon the bosomboard, which bosom is of greater length and width than the skeleton f1.'a1ne,whereb y when the cover-board 1S is placed upon the top of the bosom the marginalcdge of said besoin is forced to assume a perpendicular position between the edge ot the cover-board and the opposed side surface of the vertieal member of the skeleton frame, and the material of which the shirt-bosom is composed is of sutlicient length and width when thus forced upward at its margin to extend some little distance above the cover-board. The bosom and cover-board havingbeen thus placed in position, the skeleton frame is pushed rearward beneath the forming-plate 13, and the said plate is eleva-ted a sul'ieient distance only above the top of the skeleton frame to insure the upturned marginal edges ot the shirt-bosom beingpressed inward upon the cover-board. After the trame has been carried beneath the forming-plate the coverboard 1S is removed from the said frame, which is usually accomplished by pnllingthe said board forward, the front portion et the skeleton frame being made lower than the rear and sides tor this purpose. After the cover-board has been removed the operator, by manipulating the crank arm or handle 22, rocks the shafts l) and 20, thereby causing the cams 23 to be brought in contact with the under surface of the besoin-board, whereupon the bosom-board and the shirt-boso1n carried thereby are forced upward to a firm and even contact with the under surface ot the heated forming-plate, whereby the marginal fold, already partially turned over, is pressed or ironed, as it were, by pressure flat and smooth upon the bosom, in position to be readily and conveniently sewed.
llavi ng thus described my i nvention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentl. The combination7 with a forming-plate, ot a skeleton frame capable ot being slid be neath said plate, a bosom-board loosely fitted in the frame, and a cover-board adapted to retain the shirt-bosom upon said bosom-board, substantially as and torthepurl'iose specilied.
2. The combination, with a torming-plate and means,substantially as shown and described, for heating the same, of a skeleton l' rame capable of sliding beneath the formingplate, angular in cross-section, a besoin-board of less thickness than theheight of the frame, loosely fitted within said trame, and a coverboard also fitted within the frame above the besoin-board, the said cover-board being ot' less width and length than the bosom-board, substantially as shown and described.
3. The combination, with a 'forming-plate and means, substantially as shown and described, for heating the same, ot a skeleton frame essentially L-shaped in cross-section, a bosom-board loosely l'itted in the frameand of less thickness than the height of the frame, a eoveibeard of less length and breadth also litted in the frame above the bosom-board, and rock-shafts journaledbelowthe formingplate, provided with attached cams adapted tocontaet with the bosom-board and torce it upward in the direction of the forming-plate, substantially as and for the purpose specilied.
