WlTNESSES WILLIAM N. PARKES, OF BROOKLYN, liEW YORK.
SEWING-mourns.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that ,I-,-WILLIAM N. PARKES,
a citizen of the United States, residing in Brooklyn, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Im-f provernent in Sewing-Machines, of which the following is a descri tion. This invention re ates to the class of sewingmachines in which a double-'chain-stitch a single source.
is-made, but is not intended to be confined exclusively to-said class, as it is evident, as will ap ear from the drawings andjspecifica- .tions, t v at it may be used for various other pu oses. 15'
e main.'object is to rovide means whereby the looper of the un er-stitch forming mechanism may be given longitudinal and lateral reciprocating movements from In sewingmachines of this class the looper is usually given a longitudinal reciprocatin movement from an eccentric or cam an 'intermcdiatemechanisinand a lateral movement from a second eccentric or cam and mtermedlate mechanism. In'other words,
T the several dilferent movements are usually Y derived from several different sources.
Inthe preferred form of my invention,--as herein disclosed, all the movements of the 'looperare derived from a single eccentric or source of power.
Another object of this invention is to pro- Vide an'auxiliary looper which is operated above the 'workfplate and which passes an 35 auxiliary cord or thread back and forth so' that it catenates and is stitched down by the needle-threads, two or more needles being used-for this pur ose and two or more loopers to cooperate wit the said needles to form the lock on the under side. Ihave so formed and located the parts this machine that it isada tedfor. a very high rate of speed. such as is desired 1n the present advanced state of manufacturing.
Anotherpbject of this 1nveiit1on is to provide --mechanism whereby this high-speed double-chain stitch machine maybe made or converted into an ornamental stitch machine which will do, :or is adapted for, various kinds of ornamental work. a
It isalso an bject 'of this invention to provide, in this c ass of sewing machines more particularly,'bi1t-'for various otherclasses as well, avery compact mechanism, "s'rm 1c in form,- which operates an auxiliary, ooper down. through the hollow presser-bar-and I Specification of Letters Patent, Application filed October 3. 1903.

1' In suitable bearings formed in the forward end of the "goose neck or the frame of the machine, is mounted,- as beforementioned, a v pre'sser-bar ,5. Inthis presserbar 6, I form a long bore, which ,extends the full :dength of the resser-bar; or I use a tube for {this purpose; In: the said bore, I locate to turn freely,l.a.-looper carrier rod 53, to. the' lower end of which I clamp -a looper 54', by

I from afball'5 7, and I-secure the said. stem\56,
in its receptacle by means of a screw -58.'
-{2fo;: ne end of the',-oonnection 59, is suitably on th'eend ofa {pin 60,, which-pin is secured f 2.5-; screw-62,1 the lever 61, being pivoted at 62. to a suitable'bracketfi3, which is attached in formed- :to emb'race the ball 5 7,-a-nd' the other end of: the -'said connection-59, is suitably formed embracea ball, not shown, formed to the upper end -of ;a'lever 61', by means of a a suitable manner to the frame Aof thema- 'ch'ine: .ZIn the lower end'ofthe lever 61, is
suitably mounted a [switch-cam shoe 64,-
which'engages with; a swi-tchcam 65. This 4 sw itch 'cam 65, is so constructed and of such size it moves the lower end of the lever 61, or-gives the lower end of the said lever 61,
Frevolution's'of the shaft 1. This movement a complete movement back and forth to two of the jswitchecam is the same as used in zigzag 'or'button'hole sewing machines. It will 'nowj-belseen thatin operating the machine,

. :ward or from the said looper-carrier, that the means of which the auxiliary thread extent of the-movement of the looper will be increased or decreased. Inthe free end of the looper 54-, is formed .a thread or cord eyelet or cord-is passed back and forth under the needles. a 1
'- I will nowidescribethe preferred form of presser-foot, which I provide foruse in cominaltiomwith my looper movement.
The pl esser-footlin general-I number 67.
Trhe'u-pper end of the resser-foot 67,-;is,
suitably formedtoembrace the lower end of the-presser-bar, 6.- Lugs 68 and 69', are
formed on the said presser-foot separated by a slot 70,"extending between the said lugs into the presser-bar socket, a' clam ing screw 71, being suitably located in said ugs to clamp' the' Ipresser-foot securely to the,
lower end of the presser-bar. The presserbar is suitably formed as shown in Fig. 9, to
permit the shank of the looper 54,- to be clamped to the lower end of the looper-rod 53. For this purpose the shank of the looper 54, is of sufiicientextent to just fit in the opening in the resser-foot, and when secured in place prevents longitudinal move ment of the looper-rod 53.
the needles and the free drawing up oi the A suitable opening-7.2, isformed through the presser-foot to permit theiree passa e of;
loops, thetongue 73, beingprovided to assist in holding the work down and for the urpose of taking the strain oiithe auxiliary lboper or thread. A'channel or guide 74, is formed through the resser-foot for the pas.-
" sage of ribbon or the ike, and a groove 75, in
the bottom of the presser-foot is formed slightly deeper back'of the-needle to permit of the passage, of the auxiliary cord or -loo er-thread and the ribbon. The front en of roove 75, is not formed quite as deep as at t e rear end because only the ribbon assesin' front, the auxiliary thread or-cord ingl swung back and forth over the tongue 72, t
en passing on back of: the needles. .On the forward end of the resser foot is a detachable piece 76, throng which ribbon guide openings 77 and 78, are-formed-. This detachable piece 76, has an upwardly extending'part through which the hole or 'eye' 79,'is' formed which serves as a guide for the auxiliary cord or thread. This location of the eye for the cord or thread makes it unnecessary to have any take-up for thevsaid cord; and this piece 76, being detachable,-
makes it convenient to change it for a piece ings.
For the purpose of regulating the tension with narrower or wider ribbon guide open= on-the auxiliary cord or thread, I provide a tension device '80, which is conveniently located so that the auxiliary thread'or' cord can pas". directly through the same-to the eye 79 This tension device is of usual construct n and need not behere specified.

allowing the cord to run practically. free of tension, the effect. shown in Fig. .14 will be produced, wherein a is. the work, b b the needle-threads and 0 the cord. In Fig. 15,
two different pieces of work are shown at a,
a, the joining seam being covered by ribbon or tape d", which is secured in place by the stitching b b and the cord 0 This makes a strong and .ornamental seam-cover. Tucking can be produced and ornamented as shown in Fig. 16, the work, a being formed into tucks (P, which have the ornamental cord 0 Obviously, many difieren-t forms of work and ornamental effects can be produced on my machine as desired; And it should be under stood that the stitching may be applied to the surface of the work, to cover a seam, or
to form the junction between two pieces of work.
In the modified form shown in Fig. 6,'all the essential parts aresubstantially the same and have the same referencecharacters ap- 'plied thereto as in the other figures; but, the
bearing for controlling certain of the movements of the looper is differently formed.
For example, I form a bearing 37* with all its walls inclined a's'at 38 39*, and 40 the piece 39 being adjustable as in the other form. This disposition of the wall of the bearing piece is accompanied by a disposition of the pin 34 at an angle to the driving shaft instead of parallel therewith as in the other form. In this way the pin 34 engages the shoes 44, 45, in a line parallel withtheir and engaging said pin.
bore 44 instead of at an angle thereto.
Another form of my invention is illustrated in Fig. 18 wherein 25 represents the standard or bearing for a short pin 79 held in said hearing by screws 8Q tapped therethrough The pin proj ectssufficiently from the bearin to afford support for a sliding sleeve 81 to w ich the looper c'arriers 26 and 27. are rigidly secured by means of the screws'28 and 29 tapped through said carriers and engaging said sleeve. Adjacent the looper earners this sleeve has secured' thereto the crank-arm 22 to which the eccentric strap 18 is pivotally'secured as in the other figures. The crank-arm 22* is held to 'the sleeve by means of the set-screws 82 55.
tapped through the bearing of the crank-arm and engaging said sleeve. This construc- .tion forms a simple and compact bearing for thesupportand actuation of the loopers', the sleeve 81 rocking and sliding on the journal pin 79 to give the loop-taking and needleavoiding movements in substantially the manner of operation of the hollowshaft 23.-
While I have chosen to illustrate my looper mechanism in a machine having a plurality of needles, it will 'be.obvious that asingleneedle machine is within the contemplation of my invention.
I- desire it understood in connection with this invention that I do not wish to be lima.
ited toxthe form of auxiliary" looper herein disclosed, nor to the particular form of presser-footl In fact; various changes may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention as before stated.
