ATTACHMENT FOR SEWING-MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 440,855, dated November 18, 1890.
Application filed March 3, 1890. Serial No. 34%383. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MINOR E. TYNES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dallas, in the county of Dallas, State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sewing-Machine Attachments, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in attachments to sewing-machines; and the object of the attachment is to prevent the presser-foot from catching in the fibers of the material as the same is sewed.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear in the following description, and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the claims.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon,form a part of this specification, and in which Figure 1 is a plan of the partially-formed design. Fig. 2 is a side elevation showing the presser-foot and needle in theact of sewing the Zephyr to the cloth, and Fig. 3 is a top plan showing the presser-foot and attachment.
In carrying out my invention I first make a pattern on some suitable materialsuch, for instance, as paper-preferably writing the shape which it is desired to give the completed design. Then wrap around the paper zephyr or silk, using the different colors as desired, and wrapping more or less, according to the character of the design. The pattern, with the zephyr or silk thus wound upon it, is then placed upon the cloth or velvet to which it is to be applied and then sewed through the center or in any way desired to give the necessary appearance, and after it has been thus sewed the zephyr or silk is out upon each side of the stitching, when the paper may be readily withdrawn or picked out.
After the zephyr or silk has been cut, either before or after the pattern has been removed, the zephyr or silk may be trimmed with shears or other suitable devices to give a smooth and finished appearance to the design.
In order to prevent the zephyr or silk from catching in the forks of the presser-foot in the act of sewing the zephyr or silk to the cloth, I have provided an attachment which consists of a sheet-metalpreferably tin plate folded upon itself to the form of a loop, as shown at A in Fig. 3, the overlapped portions being secured against movement upon each other in any suitable manner-as, for instance, by indenting them, as shown at a. In use this at tachment is slipped over the fork of the presser-foot, as shown in Fig. 2, in a slightly-inclined position, as shown in said figure. It will be readily observed how this attachment serves to prevent the zephyr or silk from catching in the forks of the presser-foot.
I sometimes provide the attachment with an arm or extension A, which extends across and rests upon the forks of the presser-foot, and is provided with an elongated hole a. The end of this extension bears against the cylindrical portion B of the presser-foot B and serves to prevent longitudinal movement of the attachment during the operation of sewing. I
In the drawings, Figs. 1 and 2, 0 represents thepaper pattern; D, the Zephyr or silk wound thereon, and E the cloth or velvet to which it is to be secured. F represents the stitches by which it is sewed to the cloth.
The arm A is slightly curved and extends from the upper edge of the loop A, as seen best in Fig. 2, so that when the device is placed upon the presser-foot the free end of the loop A will be elevated slightly, so asto clear the worsted, and thus avoid all tendency of catch ing or tearing the same, as mightresult if the loop were perfectly horizontal. The-free end of the arm A is concave to allow it to snugly fit against the boss B of the pressenfoot, as seen in Fig. 3.
What I claim as new is- 1. The attachment for sewing-machines as herein described, composed of a sheet-metal plate bent upon itself to form a loop and having an integral arm extending from the upper edge of the loop out of the plane thereof and having its free end concaved, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
2. The attachment for sewing-machines as herein described, composed of a sheet-metal plate bent upon itself to form aloop and having an integral arm extending from the upper edge of the loop out of the plane thereof and having its free end concaved and formed near its connection with the loop with an elongated slot extending in the direction of the length of the arm, the said loop being adapted to receive and be held upon the presser-foot of a 10 sewing-machine, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I affix 1n ysignature in presence of two witnesses.
MINOR E. TYNES.
