摘要:
A method and apparatus for maniuplating and sewing first and second panels together is disclosed including a rotatable arm for rotating a first panel and control means for reducing the stitching speed in response to detection of a comer of the first panel.
摘要:
Sewing apparatus for joining a first panel and a second panel and having an arm that is rotated about an axis normal to the surface of the first panel to rotate the first panel, a shoe biased to follow an edge of the first panel as the first panel is fed to the sewing machine, a detector to monitor the shoe and provide a signal indicative of a longitudinal orientation of the edge of the first panel, and means for adjusting the longitudinal orientation of the first panel with respect to a true feed direction in response to the longitudinal orientation signal. An edge flattener including a generally cylindrical component is provided.

An improved method and apparatus for the assembly of pillow-top mattress covers. In the method of this invention, the gussets for a pillow-top mattress cover are prepared in a single step in which the gusset material is folded longitudinally, and the flange material is attached thereto and the gusset material is sewn together in one stitch. Thereafter, a gusset is attached to each of the top and bottom panels of the cover along its outer edge. Each gusset is secured to the underside of its associated top or bottom panel at the folded edge using a blind stitch which is not visible externally of the panel. No gluing is required. During the step of attaching the gusset to its associated mattress cover panel, precisely positioned mitered corners are formed on the gusset where the gusset is to be attached to the corner of its associated panel. In the apparatus of this invention, a conventional blind stitch machine is modified to accept thicker work by providing a wider cam for urging work into the needle area, top and bottom feed rollers disposed even with the needle, and pneumatic control of the lower support arm.

A method for forming a partial mattress sack which prevents radial bunching includes feeding first and second panels having different edge lengths at different rates through a sewing machine to form the partial mattress sack. An apparatus for sewing the partial mattress sack includes a mechanism for driving upper and lower walking feet at varying rates and a mechanism for driving the upper walking foot at the same speed as a second lower walking foot.

The invention comprises improvements to sewing machines for increasing the throat clearance of the machine. The improvements relate to 1) modifications to mechanical components of the machine to increase the throw and upper travel limits of the presser foot, upper feeding foot, needle and spreader, 2) an adjustment for allowing the speed of the upper walking foot to be variable relative to the speed of the lower walking foot, and 3) an improved biasing spring for biasing the presser foot downward.

An improved method and apparatus is provided for use in a sewing machine. The improvements include preloading two pieces of material which are to be sewn together. The preloading is accomplished by positioning pieces of material to be sewn under a gripper spaced from the sewing head on a table while prior pieces of material are being sewn. The gripper engages the material and, when the prior sewing operation is completed, the gripper is moved across the table toward the sewing head to load the preloaded pieces of material. When the two pieces of material are preloaded, most of the material hangs over an edge of the table and the lengths of the pieces of material are determined by movable detectors.
