` [SPECIFICATION fernging pertef Lettere Patent Ne. 755,628, dated Marchesa, 1904.
Application filed May 8, 1903.
,To all zo/wm t may' concern: i, Be it known that 5I, JAMES L. DAVIDSON, a citizen ofi the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and California, have invented'a new and useful Pocket Sewing-Awl, of which the following is a Specification.
\ Anobjectof this invention is to provide a superior sewing-awl which can be conven-v i :oliently carried in the pocket by personsliable .to need the use ofthe same andV which is simpler, cheaper to' manufacture, more conven-y ient toadjust and arrange for use, and also more convement 1n its use than former Sew- -sity of any bobbin and .to provide an instrumentof this kind having a detachable part -therebf which at times may serve as awrench zo for the chuck of the awl and at other times forms aportion 'of a receptacle for the sewing-thread. l.
Another object is to 'provide an awl o fthis kind 4which will be easy to the hand and which 2 5 an improved tension device or thread-con- .f`troller. 'e The accompanying' drawings illustratethe invention;
Figure I is a view of my newly-invented sew- '.3'9' 4ing-'aWl/asit may appear in use in- Stitching twopieces of leather. Fig. II. isa Sectional L view of the same `as it may` appear when the 4needle has been withdrawn after making a stitch and ready for making another stitch. Fig. III is a View from the Itop of Fig. I.
' `Eig. IV isan end view of the awl when the 'fthreadereceptacle is uncovered and the false bott'om removed. Figui V `other end of the awl. Fig. VI is a view of 4d thefront 4end of the awl with the cover of the threadreceptacle in place for use as a wrench Vfor loosening the chuck to remove the needle. e Fig.- VII'shows another form `of the thread? 455,.,l lzis .the stock ofthe awl, the same being proi 5i'sfa ferruleon the end of the stock oppo- .IS'- sllhe chuck, the same being hollow to form is a view of theserial No. 156,230. No model.)
moved to gain access to the open ends of thechambers 2 3 to remove or replace the needles, awls, or other instruments which may be carried in said receptacle. The shell or false bottom' 7 serves to keep in place any object or article which may be put into the Chambers. 8 is a detachable cover for the receptacle or end of the hollow ferrule, the Same being constructed to form the rear end of the awl-handle and provided with a perforation 9, formed asa wrench-socket to fit the nut 10 of the chuck,1 so that by removing the cover 8 and applying it tothe nut l0 of the chuck the 'same can be screwed or unscrewed for mounting or releasing the needle, awl, or other instrument applied in the chuck.V
11 12 are. perforations respectively in the shell or false bottom 7 and the ferrule 5 to .allow the sewing-thread 18 to pass from the ball 6 along the stock 1 to the needle n.
14 is a thread-controller actuated by a spring 15 and located near the chuck of the-awl, thus providing for a considerablelength of thread along the stock of the awl-handle, so that the lthread can be grasped by the hand and held` tightly against the awl-handle with great convenience for the'purpose'of holding the thread tight in the operation ofv sewing and at the same time allowing the thread-controller to act freely .as a take-up when the thread is slackened .at the seam in the act of sewing.
The thread-controller is desirably formed of a wire 6, having'an eye 17 a't the awl end of the handle and-being actuated by the spring 15, mounted inthe .chamber 2 of the 'stock of `the handle. The thread-controller may be variously constructed.
In Fig. IIthe wire 16 within the chamber 2 iis coiled into. anl extension-Spring, the rear end of which is held by a bar or button 18, which is too large to enter the chamber. 'The eye portion 17 of the thread-controller will desirably be of a size which will allow it to be passed through a perforation 2O in the 1 00 5 by any haces front end of the handle. To assemble this form, the thread-controller will be inserted then be drawn along the stoel: and passed through and wound around the eye 17, thus to cause a friction between the thread and the eye, and then through the eye of the needle n, and thereupon the appliance is ready for sewing. The user can' regulate thefeed of the thread from the ball 6 by pressing the thread between his hand and. `the stock 1. As the needle cornes through the leather 21 or other article being sewed' it draws the thread in a .loo .2Q-,and the thread being wrapped around the l e 17 will not slip so read ily through said He, but that it will draw the thread-con '-tvvardly, as shown in Fig.' I, against the spring 15. When the neewn from the article 21 being e t readrontroller 14rtakes up thel of. the thread, as indicated in Fig. Il. By
slac this construction and arrangement the threadcontroller does not interfere with the hand. The hand can always have a iirin hold on the stoclr of the' awlv and can also control the feed of the thread through. the needle by pressing the thread against, the'stoclr.'
To loosen the chuck, the cover 8 may be removed and brought' over the nut of the clinch, as indicated in Fig. Vl, thereupon by causing a relative rotation between the stock and wrenchcover 8' the nut of the chuck will be turned to loosen or tighten the chuck, as the case may be.
En the ferr "aown in Fig. l? `the spring 15 is compre n-spring, and the button. or bar 2S compresses the saine, the wn 16 being 'fastened to said button. Q3 in this view is a ping closing the inner end o the chamber :7.5.
The cover 8 maybe'iastened on. the ferrule suitable means, as by an indentation 2f playingin a rule yl being furnishedV with of the awl-handle, a thread-controller cons'tructed to lhold the thread at the other end of the handle, thus allowing the thread to be led along the outside of the handle where thesame can be readily grasped by the hand rearward of the thread-controller. v
2. A sewing-awl provided with a thread controller at the front end of the handle, and 4means for supplying thread from the rear of the handle.
3. A sewing-awl having in its handle, a forwardly and rearwardly opening chamber for a thread-controller and also rearwardly-open-v `iing chambers to hold needles and other instruments, a-thread-reoeptacle rearward of :such chambers, a member forming abottom for such receptacle, anda cover for the thread-receptacle forming the end of the hanl dle. v l 4:. A sewing-aw'l having a chambered handie, the chambers of which openA rearwardly, a passage opening forwardly from one of the chambers, a'spring threadcontroller,'a perfy tion of which extends through said passage to receive the thread,a thread-receptacle at the rear of the handle, and a coverv for said receptacle forming the end of the handle.I l.
5f ln a sewing-awl, a l ongitudinally-charnbered vstoclr having anopening at the front end communicating with a chamber of the stock, a chuck at the front end of the Stock, a ncover at the rear end of the stock, the saine y a perforation to t the] nut of the chuck. 1
6. A sewing-awl furnished at one end with a chuck, and at the other end with a detachable perforated end piece, theperforation of which is adapted to lit the nut of the chuck to turn the same.
7 A sewing-awl handle provided with a chamber, a passage leading forward from the chamber, a spring in the chamber, and a member normallyretracted by the spring extend ing through said passage and provided with aneye at its outer end toreceive a thread.
ln testimony whereofl have sign-ed my name to this-specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, at Los Angeles,v `in the county Los Angeles and State of California., this 2d day oi May, 1903. f
