Abstract
A blind-stitch sewing machine has an elastic fabric bender to bulge the material to be sewed following each step of advance through an aperture of a throat plate into the arcuate path of motion of an arc needle pivoting to-and-fro transversely to the direction of advance of the material being sewed, and a stop for the bulged material mounted on the throat plate. The stop of the throat plate is designed for the purpose of sewing labels having unevenly thick rims onto the inside of finished garments along the label rim so that the arc needle pierces the edge of the label laid on the garment and emerges from the garment and the label rim is lifted off the garment at the stop so that only the garment is forced by the fabric bender against the stop.
Claims13
A blind-stitching machine for sewing a label along the edges thereof to the inside of a garment, said machine comprising:
- an arc-needle pivoting to-and-fro along an arcuate path transversely to a direction in which the garment and the label are advanced step-by-step;
- a throat plate having an aperture therethrough;
- a stop mounted on the throat plate;
- a fabric-bender to make the garment bulge, after each advance step, through the aperture of the throat plate, into the arcuate path of motion of the arc-needle, against the stop mounted on the throat plate;
- and
- means for separating the label edge being sewn from the garment at the stop so that the pivoting arc-needle pierces the edge and emerges from the garment, whereby a label with edges of different thickness can be sewn onto a garment.
