MACHINE FOR ATTACHING BUTTONS TO GARMENTS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 519,788, dated May 15, 1894. Application filed April 20, 1892. Serial No. 429,828- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, DANIEL A. CARPENTER, of New York city, in the county and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Machines for Attaching Buttons to Garments, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in machines designed to attach buttons togarments by means of hollow metallic fasten ings, and consists of a machine having its parts constructed and combined substantially as herein described, shown and claimed.
In the accompanying sheets of drawings, Figure l is a plan of the machine; Fig. 2, a vertical section in the planes 2, 2, Fig. 1; and Fig. 3, a side elevation.
Similar reference numbers designate like parts in the several views.
The machine when in use is ordinarily screwed or bolted to a table, and operated by a treadle, which is connected with the main lever of the machine by a rod extending up through the top of the table, only asmall portion of which is illustrated in the drawings.
The frame of the machine is a casting having the base 1, with uprights 3, 3 and 4, 4 projecting therefrom, the rear uprights 3, 3 being higher and closer together than the others. Near the front end of the base is a block or anvil 5 which has a recess 6 in its lower part, and is an integral portion of the main casting, while on the rear of the base is a hub 7, in which is a set screw 8 to limit the descent of the operating lever. This lever 9 is pivoted at 10 between the uprights 3, 3 and is connected with the treadle by the rod 11.
Between the uprights 4, 4 is pivoted at 12 a block 13, with which the lever 9 is connected by a link 14, pivoted to the lever at 15 and to the block at 16. In another portion 17 of this block is screwed the stem 18 of a die 19 which is provided with a collar 20, and on the opposite end of the stem 18 is a nut 21 with a milled head to enable the die to be readily adjusted.
In respect to the parts thus far described this machine is similar to one which has long been in use, but an operator of the old machine in order to insert the fastener in first placing it on the anvil of the machine and then removing it, whereas by means of venience of handling avoided. v 3 i Under the block 13 and between the uprights 4, 4 as shown at 22, is pivoted a lever 23, one end of which projects forward into the recess 6 in the anvil, and has a cavity 24, open at the top, wherein rests the head of the needle 25. A screw 26 prevents the needle from slipping out of the cavity.
In the top of the anvil is a screw plug 27 on the upper face of which a seat is formed for the button fastening, and through the plug is a vertical channel 28 that forms a guide for the needle when this moves up and down as will soon be explained. The rear end of the lever 23 is slotted and connected by a link 29 with a slotted lug 30 on the block 13, as shown in Fig. 2, the link being secured to the block by the pin 31 and to the lever by the pin 32. These pins are so arranged that when the block 13 is in the position indicated in Fig. 2, the pin 31 is behind and about on a horizontal line passing through the pin 12, but when the block is in the position indicated in Fig. 3, the pin 31 is below the pin 12, and the pin 32 is held by the link 29 near enoughto the base to cause the needle 25 to be forced up by the front end of the lever 23, through the plug 27, as shown in Fig. 3, the pins 12, 31 and 32 then being substantially in a straight line. The spring 33 bears upward against the front part of the lever 23, and supports this while the each operation, until the bottom of the slot 34, in the link, reaches the pin 32. The object of this arrangement is to prevent the needle from being withdrawn from the fas tener too soon.
On the pin 12 is mounted a button holder which turns on orwith the pin, and which the garment, is compelled to handlea needle,
link 29 travels upward at the beginning of i .55 the mechanism described below in connection with that previously described, the incon i the needle may be.
consists of a thin strip 35 projecting forward midway between the sides of the machine from an arm 36, and having a. CIOtCl1a37 inits outer end, the arm 36 being attached-to the piece 38, which is secured on one end of the pin 12. The spring 39 tends to keepthe button holder in the position indicated in Fig. 3. When there is nov pressure on the treadle the rod 11 is held up as shown in Fig. 3, by a spring connected with the treadle, and the other parts of the; machine then occupy the respective positions in which they are shown "in that figure.
To attach a button to a: garment theoperator proceeds as follows: He places a fastening or rivet on the needle so that the base.
of the rivet rests in the seat onv the plug 27', and the needle projects; through the stem of the rivet, also droppingabnttoni'nto the button holder. Then holding the garment in. both hands abovethe needle, he forces it downv v on the needle, so that this is made to penetrate the cloth, and continues to press the. cloth downwarduntilthe. stem of. the. fastener likewise protrudes through the cloth. D111? ing this part of the operation the thrustfrom. the needle on the lever 23 is overcome by the link 29 acting against the pin 12'throughthe,
lug 30 and the pins 31 and 32, those three, pins being in a.straight line or'substantially so, as above explained; He then. applies his. foot to the treadle, whereby the rod,1landi the rear end of the lever 9 are pulledd'ownward, and the block 1.3"beingthrowntforward, turning on the pin.12, t-he diedescendstoward the anvil,.and carries'withit' the button in the button holder; which also turns; on orvv with the pin 12. Meanwhile the. pin. 31'. in. the'lug 30 of the block is carried to, the. rear and upward, and drawing up the link 29. raises the rearand depresses the front. end
of the lever;-23,.which-drawstheneedledown. 1
in advanceof the die so that'the fastenercan. be upset in-the button asi'ndicated' inEig. 2; When the pressure; is. removed from the. treadle the parts-aregrestored to the respective;- positionsin which they appear in Fig; 3a Buttons-having a closed topmaylikewisebe attached to garments-with this machine, as. well as thosethroughwhich there .isanopen:
ing, the actionof' the machine beingthesame in both cases, except that the fastener is, curled. against the, shell .of the closedflbutton'. instead of a die like the die 1 9,which with. thestem 1'8; ma-y be removed; and replaced by a s-imilarstemfashioned at its; lower end, to!
fit the topof theclosed button..
The needle may be readilyremoved from the anvil by unscrewing-the plug27 andtaking. out: the screw-26,.and needlesof difierent. sizes-may be used inthe same machine,.provided plugs-having channel'sgvarying in. i, ameter according to the sizesof the, needles are furnished to hold the needles.
Having thusdescri bedtmy invention, \what.

2. Ina machine for attaching buttonsto gar.- ments. by means of. tubular metallic fasten-- tings, thexcombinationof a. stationary anvil. Efixed to the base of the machine andprovided. with aseat conforming to the base of fthe fastening and; with a channelv28 extendv ing. through the center. of the seat and-having its diameter equalto the interior. diameter of the stem of the fastening,asliding needle 25 having the channel 28 as a guide and arranged with the. piercing end of the. needle iprojectingfromthe anvila distance greater than the length of the fastening when the parts of the machine rest in their normal positions,.a.support consistingv of agpivoted lever on which the needle thus rests, a movable, setting device supported. above-the anvil, and. mechanism. connecting said. setting device and pivoted lever,.substantially as de-- scribed.
