srnorrrcnrrolv foi-ming part of Letters Patent No. 656,467, cated August 21, 1900.
Application Eleni April 5, 1900l To all whom it ntl/,y concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH MIOTKE, acitizen of the United States, and a resident of Miland l do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention has for its object to provide simple economical tools for dressmakers, whereby the material of garments may be properly stretched and held extended, so as to facilitate the attachment of stays thereto, said invention consisting in certain peculiarities of construction and combination of parts embodied in such a tool, as hereinafter particularly set forthwith reference to the a'c-A companying drawings, and subsequently claimed.
Fignrel ot' thcdrawings represents a partly-` sectional side view of a tool in accordance with my invention positioned on a piece of garment material ready to stretch the same; and Fig. 2 a plan view of the tool on said material, the latter being stretched.
Referring by letter to the drawings, A indicates an angular channel-bar having covernplates b c d at intervals of its length and constituting the stock of the tool herein specified. in pivotal connection with the recessed rear end of the channel-bar is an arm B, and a. thnmlodatch CV for this arm is arranged to slide in said channel-bar under top plate b of same against' a spiral spring e, opposing an inturned lip f of said top plate, the meeting ends of the arm and latch being made to have automatic engagement when said arm is in the plane oi the channel-bar. The arm B constitutes partei' the shank of a fork D, the prongs of which are guarded by-a fender g to limit the depth to which they may penetrate in the material to be stretched, and
curved side flanges hof the fork extend above the fender to facilitate handling of said fork. Arranged to slide in the channel-bar forward of its lipped top plate b is a rod E, that ,conf stitutes part oi thc shank of another fork F, having a fender g and ilange h similar to the one aforesaid, and the top' plate o osaid channel-bar is in the path of a stopdug i, rising from the rear end of said rod to prevent the latter from being drawn out of its guide.
Serial No 11,817. (No model.)
Surmounting the channel-bar forward of its top plate c is a housing G, having an inclined rear upper portion, between which and rod E is arranged a friction-disk H,- opposed by a spiral iapringl, confined in said housing. The spring-controlled friction-disk yields to outward pull of the rod and prevents its automatic retraction. In pivotal connection with rear extensions of the housing sides is a lever J, that extends forward against the I friction-disk, and by operating this lever said disk is moved forward against resistance of spring I to permit of rod E being retracted in the channel-bar. I
While I have shown` a satisfactory means for controlling adjustment of the fork-shank or rod E longitudinally of the channel-bar A, it is practical to arrive at the same result by other means. Hence I do not limit myself to ilicsehiein set forth. In practice the proper adjustment of rod E in the channel-bar is effected and latch C retracted to permit of the fork l) beingset at an angle to the plane of said channel-bar, as shownin Fig. l. Both forks of the tool being now engaged with garment material, said tool is straightened out to stretch said material and hold it extended while an ordinary stay K is being made fast thereto, both hands ofV the operator being free to set the stay. Setting of the stay having been accomplished, it is obvious that the tool may be readily removed from the work, -either by unlocking and raising the joint of channel-bar A and arm B or by retracting rod E if the latter be extended to lengthen said tool. Iflrlaving thus described my invention; what I-elaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- l. A dressmakers tool comprising a channel-bar stock having comer-plates at intervals op, lits length, a fork having its shank in pivoral union with the stock at one end of same, a fork-shank latch-retractive in said stock, a spiral spring intermediate ofthe latch and an inturned lip ofl one ofl said cover-plates, another fork having its shank in sliding engagement with the aforesaid stock, and means for preventing automatic retraction of the latter fork from adjusted position.
2. A dressmakcrs tool comprising a channel-bar stock having cover-plates at intervals of its length, a fork having its shank in pivf otal union th the stock at one end of same, a fork-siiank ateh retraetive in said stociga.` spiral spring; intermediate of the latch and an" intnrned lip oi; -one of said cover-piates, another fork having its shank in sliding engagement with the aforesaid stock, means for preventing automatic retraction of the latter l fork from usted position, and a Stop-lug arrangeci'on the shank of; this fork to come against another of the aforesaid cover-plates.
3. A dressrnakes tool comprising a stock;- a fork having its 'shank in sliding engagement with the Stock, a housing' on the stock having inclination of. top, a friction-disk intermediate of the fork-shank and inclination of the" housing, a. spiral spring in 'said hoilsing op'- .posed to the friction-disk, a lever arranged .to move said disk against resistance of the spring, another fork having its shank in pivoLaI union with the stock at the end of same farthest from the fork aforesaid, and a latch arranged to lock the pivoted fork in the piane of said stock. L
' In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand, at Milwaukee,
inthe county of Milwaukee and State of Wis'A c'onsin, in the presence of two witnesses.
