SEWING-AWL.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 660,413, dated October 23, 1906.
Application filed March 24, 1898; Serial No. 671L953. \No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HARRY ULPHIN BRADT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Barnes, in the county of Washington, State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Sewing Devices, of which the following is a description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
This invention relates to implements for use in sewing leather; and it consists in the matters hereinafter described, and referred to in the appended claim.
In the accompanying drawings,which illustrate the invention, Figure 1 is a perspective of the improved sewing implement. Fig. 2 is an elevation thereof with the cap removed and the bobbin in position for inserting it in the handle. Fig. 3 shows several awl-bits of varying size. Fig. 4 shows a sectional view of the handle and the bearings in the end of the same for the bobbin.
A is the tubular shuttle-forming awl-handle, having a conical bit socket or holder A at one end and a removable cap A closing its opposite open end. The handle is provided with a longitudinal slit a, which extends from its open end nearly to the socket or holder A for the egress of the thread If, as shown in Fig. l.
B is the awl-bit, held in the socket by a set-screw a and provided on one side of its pointed end with a barb or heard I). Awlbits of various sizes will be provided for use in sewing shoes, harness, 850., as shown in Fig. 3.
0 represents the bobbins, two or more being preferably provided, These bobbinsare of the same length as the interior of the hollow handle, and the projecting ends 0 c of the spindle turn in bearings formed in the end pieces of the handle. Each bobbin is divided or formed with a series of spool-sections c c o c to receive different kinds or colors of thread.
I will now describe the operation and advantages following the same:
The handle A is grasped, with the slot just above the tips of the fingers, and the awl B is pushed through the material being sewed, the barb or heard inclining slightly upward.
The thread i is now thrown from-theinside over the awl-beard,with the forefinger holding the thread,with one coil wrapped around the third and fourth fingers. The awl is now drawn back through the material, with the thread looped over the beard, and the thread will then be pulled back a little to form a loop, through which the handle will be passed after the manner of a shuttle, drawing the inside back enough to hide the lock and holding the outside thread a little tight. This will make a perfect stitch.
Patches may be sewed on much faster by my improved awl and bobbin than by the old way and much neater than with the sowing-machine. The stitches, if care is taken, will be. almost invisible.
In sewing fine shoes I'can sew in the same holes made by the machine and can use waxed threads to match the color of the shoes. I can sew through and through a shoe-sole with a waxed thread and with a good locked stitch.
Where harness is to be sewed, I provide a separate handle for the suitable awl-bits. To bring any desired thread into service, the cap A is removed and the bobbin is pulled out until the proper thread is reached, and this thread is slightly unwound and entered in the slit ct,.whereupou the bobbin is pushed back into place and the cap again applied. The handle really serves also as a shuttle.
Whatl claim is- A sewing implement comprising a hollow handle A having a longitudinal slot or extending inwardly from one end thereof and provided at one end with a removable end cap A closing the open end of the slot and an end piece closing the opposite end of the hano dle and provided with a bit or awl socket, and
a bobbin divided for different threads and HARRY ULPHIN B'RADT.
