Buttonhole Sewing Machine

This invention relates to an improvement in sewing machines such as use a straight needle, the object being to adapt the machine to various kinds of work, as for button-holes, embroidery, &c. and the invention consists in providing the needle-bar with two or more needles and imparting to the said bar while the needles are above the cloth a full rotary movement and while the needles are through the cloth the shuttle passes through the loops of the several needle-threads and interlaces with the said needle-threads; also,in a mechanism for guiding the work, especially adapted to button-hole making.

Buttonhole Sewing Machine

This invention relates to a sewing machine for making buttonholes and especially to a machine for making buttonholes of the following kind: the button-hole is made with or without an eye and with the threads locked at the end, by shifting the fabric in the direction of the length of the same, first in one direction, for making one edge of the buttonhole and then it is shifted transversely to the width of the buttonhole and then moved back longitudinally in the opposite direction beneath the same to the beginning, where the stitches are again locked and then the fabric is cut open between the two rows of stitches. The button-hole produced by my new machine is absolutely straight and remains securely clamped until the button-hole is finished. The fabric travels in the longitudinal direction of the button-hole and at the ends only travels transversely a distance equal to the width of the button-hole, while the needle swings as it reciprocates.

Buttonhole Sewing Machine

My invention has relation to buttonhole sewing machines and to the mode of barring or staying one or both ends of a buttonhole to prevent such ends from fraying and tearing. It has heretofore been the general practice to form the staying or barring stitches (hereinafter referred to as the “barring-stitches”) parallel or substantially parallel with the edge or binding stitches (hereinafter referred to as the “binding-stitches”). I have discovered that the ends of a buttonhole may be more effectually and more durably barred by forming the barring-stitches at substantially right angles to the binding-stitches or parallel or substantially parallel with the length of the buttonhole or by forming the barring-stitches as described and interlocking some of them with the binding-stitches. My invention has for its object mechanism for barring one or both ends of a buttonhole by means of stitches formed at or substantially at right angles to the binding-stitches and parallel or substantially parallel with the length of the buttonhole or by forming said barring-stitches as described and interlocking some of them with some of the binding stitches.

Hemstitch Sewing Machine

This invention relates to hemstitch machines for sewing winding seams of the kind that would follow a line winding to and fro in a curved form between two parallel lines and in which machines the sewing is performed by means of a piercer and needles, the piercer, with the needles, penetrating the fabric to be sewed and the needles forming stitches at the side of the piercer. The invention has for its object to provide in such winding-seam-sewing machines means by which the winding seam can be produced not only in the direction of a straight line, but in all directions and configurations, for which purpose the needles and piercer, as also the catcher or shuttle driving mechanism, may simultaneously be turned from one direction to another.

Buttonhole Sewing Machine

This invention has relation to that type of buttonhole sewing machines organized to first bind the edges of a buttonhole in the usual manner and bar the ends thereof by stitches laid parallel with said edges, or substantially so, as described and shown in Letters Patent US 615.165, granted to me November 29, 1898, the present invention having for its object certain improvements residing chiefly in the provision of means for controlling the feed movements of the work-holder, whereby buttonholes of different lengths can be bound and barred as described and where by the number of binding and barring stitches may be varied irrespective of the length and width of the buttonhole and whereby the barring-stitches are or may be made to interlock with the binding-stitches at the ends of a buttonhole, so as to virtually bar the said binding-stitches also...

Buttonhole Sewing Machine

The present invention has relation to buttonhole sewing machine of the Julius Gutmann type organized to bind the edges of a buttonhole in the usual manner and bar the ends thereof by stitches laid parallel with its said edges, or substantially so. The invention has for its object certain improvements in the type of sewing machines referred to and particularly in the machines of the construction shown in our application for patent of the United States, filed August 31, 1897, Serial No. 650.162 (US 627.114) and Letters Patent US 615.165 of Julius Gutmann, dated November 29, 1898. In the machines shown and described in said application and patent the progressive or feed motion lengthwise of the buttonhole is imparted to the work-holder from the eccentric portion of a cam-groove in the feed-wheel through a pin projecting into said groove and through a lever or a system of levers connected with a slide with which the work-holder has motion crosswise of the buttonhole and independent motion length wise thereof.

Our present invention has relation to buttonhole sewing machines of the Gutmann type organized to bind the edges of a buttonhole in the usual manner and bar the ends there of by stitches laid parallel with said edges or substantially so. Our said invention has for its object certain improvements on the machine shown and described in Letters Patent US 615.165  to Julius Gutmann, dated November 29, 1898, whereby certain parts of the mechanism are materially simplified, as will hereinafter be more specifically pointed out.

Hemstitch embroidering machine

This invention has relation to sewing machines organized to produce the point d'echelle or Jacob's-ladderstitch of the type shown and described in Letters Patent US 620.304 granted to me February 28, 1899 and organized to produce curved or winding seams. In these machines, as well as in others organized to produce irregular and particularly curved or winding seams, it is necessary to impart to the needle-bar, to the work-holder and to the looper or shuttle synchronous rotary movements in conformity with the curvatures of the seam to be produced and this has heretofore been done by hand. As is well known, the transmission of these rotary movements to the parts referred to cannot be effected by hand with the precision required for the exact duplication or successive reproduction of a given pattern. This invention has for its object the provision of means whereby this necessary rotation is mechanically imparted to the needle bar and needle-plate and to the looper or shuttle through the medium of a pattern wheel and mechanism operated thereby.
