Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 4, 1906.
Application filed July 29, 1905. Serial No. 271.846. (Specimens.)
To all whom it may concern,.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM KIRK CREER, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at North Adams, in the county of Berkshire and Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Method of Producing Lappet Figures upon Woven Fabrics and a Fabric Containing Improved Lappet Figures, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the production of lappet figures upon woven fabrics; and it consists in a fabric containing lappet figures in which the severed ends of the lappetthreads are upon the back of the fabric, or the side opposite to that on which the lappet figures appear, and in the improved method of producing such lappet figures hereinafter described and claimed.
I-Ieretofore in the production of isolated lappet figures in woven fabrics the portions of the lappet-threads which are not woven into the fabric extend as free threads over the face of the fabric from one figure to the next in each series, and subsequently these free lappet-threads are severed closely to the sides of the lappet figures. However closely to the lappet figures these free threads have been out the severed ends project from the figures and appear as a disfigurement upon the face of the fabric, giving it an unfinished ragged appearance. The improved method herein claimed obviates this objectionable feature.
In the drawings accompanying this specification, Figure l illustrates the face side of a piece of woven fabric with lappet figures produced thereon in the old or usual manner, and on the lower part of this piece the free portions of the lappet-threads have been severed at each side of the lappet figures. Fig. 2 illustrates the appearance of the back of a piece of fabric like that in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows the face side of a piece of fabric with the lappet figures thereon having the severed ends projecting at each side; Fig. 4, the back side of the same fabric with the floating threads looped under the lappet-threads according to the improved method. Fig. 5 shows the face side of a piece of fabric with the severed ends of the lappet figures pulled through to the back by the floating threads,
and Fig. 6 shows the back side of a piece of fabric having the severed ends of the lappetthreads pulled through.
The several portions illustrated are designated as follows: F, the fabric; L, the lappet figures; a, the free portions of the lappetthreads extending between the figures; s, the severed ends of the threads; b, the floating threads, which are looped into the lappetthreads at either side of each figure. 6 the severed ends s are upon the back of the fabric, and in Fig. 5 will be seen the complete and finished lappet gures produced by this improved method.
This improved method may be practiced by weaving in the ordinary lappet-loom with the well-known dobby attachment, the iioating threads being woven or looped into the lappet-threads only at each side of the several lappet figures and upon the side of the fabric opposite to such figures by raising all the warp-threads employed in weaving the ground fabric and lowering all lappet-threads which are employed in forming the lappet figures. After the Weaving the free threads between the lappet figures upon the face of the fabric are severed by shearing or cutting in the usual manner, and after these threads are severed the ends are drawn through to the back of the fabric by pulling upon the interwoven floating threads with a hand-card, a rod, or any other suitable implement.
I claim- 1. The improved method of producing lappet figures upon woven fabrics, which consists in weaving a floating thread into the lappet-threads only, at the two extremities of each lappet figure and upon the side of the fabric opposite to such figures, cutting the lappet-thread which extends between each two figures on the face of the fabric and then pulling the severed ends of the threads to the back of the fabric by means of the interwoven floating threads.
2. A woven fabric containing lapv et figures in which the severed ends of the appetthreads are pulled through to the side of the fabric opposite to the lappet figures.
