www ggmmwmsw WWK JOHN T. WARiNG, or YoN'KERs, NEW YORK Letters Patent No. 84,325, dated November 24, 1868. *i
IMPROVEMENT INFELTED TUFTED FABRICS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom lit may concern `consists in a new and improved tufted fabric, wherein the tufts of yarn or rovings are introduced into a back of previously-1uanufactured woven or felt cloth, through perfor-ations in the cloth, and secured therein by felting, substantially as hereinafter described.
The materials of which the back and-tufts are composed depend upon the uses for which the fabric is designed. For ladies cloakings, trimmings, and similar uses, the back may be of a light felt cloth, flannel,
orother Warm cloth, wholly or partly composed of,
Wool, or other felting-materials, or any Warm fabric of cotton or oth material, and the tufts should be of Wool, or wor ed, or mixtures thereof, with cotton, silk, or other fibres, either in yarns or rovings.
For carpets, rugs, audsimilar uses, the back may be of heavy, coarsely-woven cloth, of hemp, iiax, jute, manilla, or of wool woven or felted, when cheapness of production is not an object, and the tufts may be of heavyyarns or rovings of wool or worsted, or mixtures thereof with other fibrous materials.
When the tuftsrare suciently close together in the fabric, they maybe secured therein by felting' the parts together that project through the back of the fabric; but I prefer in all cases to place upon the back of the fabric, after the tufts have been introduced therein, a sliver or thin bat of wool, and felt it to the tufts, and also to the'ba'ck ofthe fabric, when the latter is composed of felting-materials.
The object of the felting is to prevent'the tufts from being pulled out of the fabric, and therefore it will be obvious that either the back of the fabric, or the tufts, or both, must have suicient felting-properties to unite with the thin bat or sliver,l or with each other, by the process of felting, in order to keep the tufts in place in the fabric. y
In carrying on my new manufacture, I use a jiggering-machine, such as is used by hatters in hardening and felting wool-hat bodies, with the addition of a series of `perforated boards or plates, which I have called tuft-holders in a contemporaneous specification of Letters Patent for improvements in the manufacture of felted fabrics, and machinery used therein, said "tuftholders, in connection with the jiggeriug-machine, forming a part of the subject-matter of said patent. p
I also use tufting-needles in combination with the tuftholders,7 some of which are of my own invention.
But, more particularly to describe my invention, I- \vill refer to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate the fabric, process of manufacture, and machinery used therein.
Figure l is a plan view of the jiggering-machine, with the tuft-holders.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section of the same.
Figure 3 is a plan View of the fabric, with tufts of yarns, looped, suitable for ladies cloakings, trimmings, 87e. y
Figure 4 is a plan View ofthe fabric,with tufts of rovings, eut, for ladies cloakings, trimmings, &c. A portion of this figure is broken to show in layers the construction of the fabric.
Figure 5 is a plan view of the fabric, made with heavy tufts of rovings, cut, and a heavy coarse back of woven cloth, intended for carpets, rugs, Ste. Aportion of this gure is 'also broken to show the construction of the fabric. l
Figure 6 is a broken section, showing themodel of preparing the fabric with a light cloth back and tufts of rovings, suitable for cloakings.
- Figure 7 is a b roken section, showing the mode of preparing the fabric with the coarse-woven hemp back, and heavy tufts of rovings, cnt, suitable for carpets, rugs, tc.
Figure 8 is a broken section, showing the mode of preparing the fabric with tufts of yarn, suitable for cloakings. Y
Figure 94 is a view of a flateye-pointed tuftiug-needle, used in introducing the tufts into the fabricand tuft-holders.
Figure l0 is avilew of atubular eye-pointed tuftingneedle, also used in introducing the tufts into the fabric and tuft-holders.
Figure 1l is a View of a tubular punch or cuttinginstrument, used as a tufting-needle, for perforating the fabric and introducing the tufts.
Figure 12 isa broken section, showing the use of the tubular tufting-needle in preparing the fabric.
The jiggering-machine consists of ajflat table, a, in
the middle of which isa steam-box, b, having a pervforated top plate about level with the top surface of the table, as usual, and is also provided with the ordinary jiggering-board b, held down by the vibrating 4standard b2, pivoted in the 'cross-frame b3,and a crankshaft, b4, and connecting-rod., b5, by means of which a very short and exceedingly rapid motion is given to .i
the jigger-board. Upon the face of the table are placed two rebated slides,c c', opposite to and parallel with each other, and litted thereto is a series of perforated boards or plates, d d d, which I call tuftholders, theiroic'e being to sustain the fabric, and hold and protect the tufts from being felted, during the operating of felting' upon the back of the fabric. The tuft-holders are of the Width required for the desired fabric, and the perforations e must be of the rcquired size to hold the tufts, and in number and order -of arrangement correspond with the required number and order of arrangement ofthe tufts upon the fabric, and the tuft-holders being made to match each other in figure, a continuous fabric may be made by preparing the fabric at one side of the jigger-board on the series of tuft-holders, an'd pushing them forward, step by step, tion is completed in that part of the fabric subject to the action of the steam-box and jigger-board.'
The pinching-screw e may be used to hold the tuff holders in place while under the jigger-board. The perforations in the tuft-holders permit the steani to pass by the tufts held in them,upwards to the fabric,
p but the steam-box may, if desired, be placed in the jigger-board itself, having its perforated side downwards, exposed .to the back of the fabric.
I prepare the fabric for the lfelting-process by laying the cloth, which is to form the back ofthe fabric, upon the tufting-boards or tuft-holders in such manner that it can be fed continuously through the machine; then, with a tuting-needle, perforate the cloth and introduce the tufts into and through the cloth, in loops, which are received and held by the holes in the tuftholders. y
rllhis operation, Which is like introducing loops of thread in cloth by a sewing-machine, is shown in fig. 12, which represents a portion of a tuft|-l1older,d,with its holes, e, supporting the back of the fabric, j', while the tufts of rovings, g, the tubular needle It. It will be observed that a portion of the roving or yarn, used in forming the tufts, lies on the back of the fabric, on the reverse side from the tufts, in form like sewing-maohine stitches, and if close enough together to furnish. sufficient material,
under'the jigger-board, as the telting-operaare placed therein by means of may be felted together on that side of the fabric, while the tufts themselves are protected from being felted bythe tutt-holders. But I prefer to cover the reverse side of the fabric with a sliver or thin bat of Wool after the tufts are put in, and tol lay upon the whole a linen cloth, called a hardening-cloth in ielting-operatidns, before bringingthe prepared, fabric under the jiggerboard. The linen hardening-cloth may be continuous, the same as the fabric, ofthe length required.
The broken sections, figs. (i, 7, and S, show the tuftholder (l, the back of the fabric f, the tufts'cf yarns or rorings y, the sliver or thin bat of wool or other suitable felting-niaterial i, the hardening-cloth j, and the jigger-board b. v.
rlhe tubular tnfting-needle niayhave a solid point, like that shown in tig'. 10, or a sharp gouge-point, like that shown in l1 and 12. The solid point is best for forcing through coarselywoven heavy fabrics, and the concave or gouge-point is better for cutting through closely-woven fabrics. The at eye-pointed tuftingneedle takes up less rooni in the holes of the tuftholders, but is more suitable for yarns than rovings.
, I claim as of in v invention- The new and improved manufacture of tufted fabrics, consisting ef tufts secured in a previously-manufactured back of felt or woven'cloth by the process of felting, substantially as hereinbefbre described.
' Also, the hitting-needles, or either of them, in combination with the ruft-holders.
