UNITED STATES PATENT FFICE.
ISAAC E. PALMER, OF MIDDLETOWN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THE I. E. PALMER CO., OF MIDDLETOWN, CONNECTICUT, A CORPORATION OF CONNECTICUT.
WOVEN FABRIC.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented March 2, 1909.
Application filed August 24, 1908. Serial No. 449,926.
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, ISAAC E. PALMER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Middletown, in the county of Middlesex and State of Connecticut, have invented an Improvement in Voven Fabrics, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like numerals en the drawings representing like parts.
This invention relates to a woven fabric which may be of general application, as for example, for use as curtains or the like, but which herein is represented as a hammock valance.
In order that the principles of the invention may be readily understood, I have disclosed a single type or embodiment thereof in the accompanying drawings, wherein- Figure l is a plan view of a portion of a hammock valance embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a transverse section upon the line 2 2 of Fig. 1 Fig. 3 is a similar section upon the line 3-3 of Fig. l g Fig. l is a view similar to Fig. 1, but representing a modified form of the invention; Fig. 5 is a transverse section upon the line 5-5 of Fig. 4; and Fig. 6 is a detail representing the manner in which certain of the weft threads are grouped.
Referring more particularly to Figs. l, 2, 3 and 6, the body fabric whereto the hammock valance may be suitably secured is represented at i. The hammock valance or fabric for other use is composed of interwoven warp and weft threads 2 and 3 respectively. Throughout a part at least of the extent of the valance in the direction of the weft threads, the Warp threads are of substantially equal length, such part or stripe being indicated by the brackets i and 5. The Warp threads embraced within the bracket 4 are at intervals characterized by gathers 6 extending in the direction of the weft threads and protruding from the general plane of the fabric. The series of warp threads embraced by the bracket 5 are non-gathered. Vhile said gathers may be produced in any suitable manner, preferably the weft threads in the series inclosed by the bracket 5 are at intervals such as indicated by the brackets 7 7 (Fig. 6) and at 8 in Fig. 2, bound more numerously in single sheds of the warp threads than in the intervening single sheds. That part of the weft threads embraced by the bracket 4 are bound in single sheds in numbers corresponding to the number of wefts in the said intervening sheds in the stripe embraced by the bracket 5. The effect of such method of weaving is to gather at intervals, as represented at 6, the warp threads in the stripe embraced by the bracket 4. It is apparent that one or more stripes containing transverse gathers may be formed and that if a plurality of such stripes be employed, one or more gathers in one stripe may alternate, if desired, with one or more gathers in an adjacent stripe. y
That portion of the hammock valance extending below the stripes included by the brackets 4 and 5 and herein embraced by the bracket 9 may be and preferably is woven to present a fullness caused by gradually increasing, downwardly viewing Fig. 1, the length of the warp threads of such part. This result may be accomplished in any suitable manner, as, for example, by letting off and taking up certain of the Warp threads more rapidly than others, as disclosed in my Patent No. 545,607, Sept. 3, 1895.
Having thus described one type or embodiment of my invention, I desire it to be understood that although specific terms are employed, they are' used in a generic and descriptive sense and not for purposes of limitation, the scope of the invention being set forth in the following claims.
Claims.
i. A woven non-elastic fabric for hammock Valances and for other purposes, comprising interwoven Warp and weft threads presenting one or more areas characterized by spaced gathers extending transversely of the warp threads and protruding from the general plane of the fabric.
2. A woven fabric for hammock valances and for other purposes, comprising interwoven Warp and weft threads presenting one or more stripes extending in the direction of the warp threads, said stripe or stripes having gathers extending transversely thereof and protruding from the general plane of the fabric, said fabric also having an area parallel with said stripe or stripes containing warp threads of successively increasing length.
3. A woven fabric for hammock valances and for other purposes comprising warp and weft threads, a series of said warp threads being of substantially equal length and another series thereof being of gradually increasing length, that part of the weft threads lOl that is interwoven with said Warp tl-re ls of which they are of substantially equal length,
equal length having separated series tl 1 eof l the said Warp threads in one of said last inengrouped by a portion only of said varp threads to 'forni protruding gathers, the corresponding part of the intervening weft threads being non-grouped.
li. A Woven fabric 'for haniinocn valances and for other purposes, comprising inte Warp and weft threads, said warp being of substantially equal length, a of said Warp threads at spaced peints hin in single sheds incre treft threads than hound in inteivenin(F single sheds and fr f ing spaced gathers protruding fr-ori the general plane of the fabric, and an adjacent series of said Warp threads binding throughout their extent in single sheds weft threads corresponding in niiinher to those in said intervening single sheds.
5. A Woven 'fabric Vfor haininoch valances and for other purposes, comprising inter- Wovenivaip and weft threads, a part of said Warp threads being of substantially equal length, a series of said Warp threads at spaced points 'binding in single sheds incre iveft threads than are hound in intervening single sheds and forming protruding gathers, and an adjacent series of Warp threads 1oinding throughout their extent in single sheds weft threads corresponding in nuinher to those in said intervening single sheds, said fabric also having a portion characterized hy Warp threads of gradually increasing length with Which said Weft threads are also interwoven.
6. A Woven' 'fabric for haniinoch valances and for other purposes, comprising inteiavoven Warp and ivcft threads, said Warp threads being characterized by a plurality of stripes l in one of which the Warp threads are of gradually increasing length and in two or inoi-e of tioned etapes being gathered atintervals thus foiining spaced gathers protruding frein the general plane of the fabric, and in another of said stripes in single sheds niore weft thiearis th 1i hound in intervening single sheds. i
7. woven hric for haniniock valances and lor other p comprising interwoven Warp and presenting a plun rality of strfnding transversely ofthe ivaro threads, said stripes honig characterized by spaced gathers extending transversely of the warp threads, one or inore gathers of one stripe alternating with one or inore gathers of an adjacent stripe said fabric having and said spaced gathers 1oeing formed hy warp threads binding in single sheds inore iveft threads than are hound in single sheds in the adjacent noingathercd p S. ifi Woven fahiic for hainrnock valances and for other purposes characterized by the fact that in one portion thereof the Warp threads are of gradually increasing length, thereby to produce a general fullness, and that in anc-ther portion thereof the Warp threads are transversely gathered at intervals, thereby producing spaced, gathered portions extending transversely of the weft threads and protruding frein the general plane of the f ahric.
