JOSEPH F'IAGEK AND STEVE FTACEK, OF STREATOR, ILLINOIS.
SEWING-PLIERS.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that we JOSEPH FTACEK and 7 STEVE F morn, citizens of the United States of America, residing at Streator, in the county .of La Salle and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in SewingPliers, of which the following is a specification.
- This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in sewing pliers and is particularly adapted to enable a person of limited means to repair his shoes or the like at a nominal cost.
The primary object of the present inven tion is to simplify the construction and operation of devices of this kind and to enable the same to be manufactured cheaply and easily. I
With the above general objects in view and others that will become apparent as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel form, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the 'accompanying drawing and claimed.
In the drawing forming a part of this application and in which like reference characters designate corresponding throughout the severalviews,
Figure lis a side elevational view of a pair of sewing pliers constructed in accordance with the present invention.
Fig. 2 is an edge elevational view thereof partly broken away,
.Fig. 3 is a side elevational view of the outer end of the pliers and illustrating certain steps in the use of the same,
Fig. 1 is a similar view illustrating further step in the use thereof, 7
Fig. 5 is a transverse sectional view, slightly enlarged, and illustrating a detail of the invention, a
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary detail view of the needle carrying jaw of the pliers, and
Fig. 7 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating the stitches formed. by the present invent-ion.
Referring more in detail to the several parts 6 views, the present device includes a pair of Serial No. 296,447.
through the aperture 16 provided in the free' end of the jaw 5. A suitable sewingneedle 17 is retained in the free end of the jaw 5 by means of a screw 18 or the like and said needle projects toward the jaw 6 in alinement with the aperture 19 provided in the free end of the latter.
A third jaw 20 is positioned between the jaws 5 and 6 and is providedwith a handle 21 which crossesthe handle 8 of the jaw 6 and is pivoted to the latter as at 22, a suitable spring 23 being positioned between the handles 7 and 21 to normally-retain the latter separated with the jaw 20 adjacent the jaw 5 as shown in Fig. 1 wherein the needle 17 is projected through the aperture provided in the free end of said jaw 20. Movement of the handle 21 toward the handle 7 is limited by the adjustable stop pin 24 as it is desirable that the jaw 20 be allowed to only move such distance away fromjthe jaw 5 as to enable the needle 17 being withdrawn slightlyout ofthe aperturein the free end of the jaw 20.
The thread 12 is led from the aperture 16 through the aperture of the jaw 20 and then through the eye of the needle 17 back through said aperture of the jaw 20. I
In using the present device, it is necessary sitioned as shown in Fig. l and the two pieces of leather 28 are disposed between the free end of the jaw 6 and the needle 17. The handles 7 and 8 are then grasped and moved toward each other so as to actuate the jaw 6 and thereby cause the needle 17 to be projected through said pieces of leather as shown in Fig. 3. The needle 26 is then posi- Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Sept. 14 1920 Application filed May 12, 1919.
tioned in the notch 27 and drawn through so that the thread 25 lies in said notch between the needle 17 and the adjacent portion of the thread 12. The handles 7 and 8 are then separated so that the jaw 6 moves to its dotted line position in Fig. 3, whereupon the handles 7 and 21 are pressed together so as'to cause the jaw 20 to move away from the jaw 5 and thereby strip the pieces of leather 28 off of the needle 17 when the loop 29 is formed in the thread 12 and extended through said pieces of leather, it being noted that the thread 12 is prevented from being pulled out of the pieces of leather toward the jaw 5 by reason of the thread 25. It will thus be seen that the jaw 20 functions as a presser foot and acts to strip the work from the needle, while the jaw 6 functions as a work support and its free end acts as a throat plate. After the step of the operation illustrated in Fig. 4, the free end of the thread 12 may be pulled so as to tighten the stitch as shown in Fig. 7 at 30, whereupon the handles 7 and 21 are released and the pieces of leather are moved a short distance to perform again the same operation above described and thereby stitch the pieces of leather together as desired.
It is believed that the construction and operation as well as the advantages of the present invention will be readily understood by those skilled in the art from the foregoing description.
While the form 'of the invention herein shown and described, is what is believed to be the preferable embodiment of the same, it is nevertheless to be understood that minor changes may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
