| 20090095207 | Temporary pants hemming / cuffing devices - A device for temporary hemming/cuffing children's pants legs is disclosed. One embodiment of the present invention is a device having an outer body portion and an inner tongue portion connected by a hinge. The hinge creates an offset distance between the outer body and the inner tongue, and is biased to angle the inner tongue through the outer body. The inner tongue may be deflected from its neutral position to form a recess to accommodate material, such as a cuff made by turning the bottom edge of a pants leg over the pants leg. Another embodiment of the present invention is a clip having a pair of arms extending from a tongue portion. The arms are adapted to engage the bottom of a turned up edge of the pants leg thereby preventing the clip from sliding down the cuff. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090126609 | Template for use in circular sewing - A template for circular sewing is used for repeatedly sewing a single pattern into a circular arrangement with use of a sewing machine equipped with a circular sewing device. The template includes a transparent sheet member having a center point, a plurality of arc-shaped base lines arranged in a concentric pattern about the center point of the sheet member, and a plurality of linear pattern pitch measurement lines which are provided for measuring a pitch of the patterns and which are arranged on the sheet member so as to pass through the center point of the sheet member and across the arc-shaped base lines. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20110073028 | Sewing or Looping Head, Particularly for Automated Closing of Tubular Knitted Articles at an Axial End Thereof - A sewing or looping head, particularly for the automated closing of tubular knitted articles at one of their axial ends comprising a pair of sewing elements, which can move along corresponding actuation paths and cooperate with each other in forming a sewing chain stitch, and a cutting element, which can be actuated to cut the sewing chain stitch; in the sewing or looping head, the cutting element can engage the sewing chain stitch proximate to the crossing point of the paths of the pair of sewing elements or the point where the sewing chain stitch is formed, so as to minimize the length of the sewing chain stitch that exceeds the length needed to sew or loop the article and so as to reduce the time required to perform the sewing or looping operation. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20080264317 | Soft Goods Slitter and Feed System for Quilting - An apparatus is provided for feeding and slitting mattress covers, quilts and other soft goods supported on a table. The apparatus has a first slitting wheel rotatable by a motor. A second slitting wheel is rotatable by the motor and contacts the first slitting wheel to provide a cutting action. The apparatus further includes a conveyor operable by the motor for conveying the soft goods past the slitting wheels, and a compression assembly having an actuator, a swing arm, and wheels for compressing the soft goods and holding the soft goods against the conveyor to preventing slippage or twisting. | 10-30-2008 |

| 20110048302 | SEWING MACHINE PROVIDED WITH AUXILIARY TABLE - A sewing machine includes a sewing machine bed, a flat-plate-shaped auxiliary table detachably attachable to the sewing machine bed, a guide member mounted on the bed and guiding the auxiliary table between a first position set at a rear side of the bed and where the auxiliary table is held in parallel to an upper surface of the bed and a second position set at a front side of the bed and where the auxiliary table is attached to and detached from the bed, and an engaging member mounted on the auxiliary table so as to movably engage the guide member. The guide member and the engaging member are engaged with each other, so that the inclination of the auxiliary table relative to the upper surface of the bed is limited in a predetermined angle range when the auxiliary table is positioned between the first and second positions. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110048303 | AUXILIARY TABLE FOR SEWING MACHINE - An auxiliary table for a sewing machine includes a table body formed into a flat plate shape in a planar view and including one or a plurality of rectangular portions, the table body having a plurality of corners, an upper surface at an upper side in a direction of gravitational force and an underside at a lower side in the direction of gravitational force, a cloth-receiving member which is disposed on at least one of the corners of the table body so as to be located lower than the upper surface of the table body and supports the workpiece cloth placed on the upper surface side of the table body and hanging downward from the table body, and a supporting member which supports the cloth-receiving member so that an amount of protrusion of the cloth-receiving member from an outer edge of the table body is changeable. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20100018447 | METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR ASSEMBLY OF A PERICARDIAL PROSTHETIC HEART VALVE - A method of assembling a prosthetic valve using sheets of material, such as pericardium material, polymer or bioengineered film, or other material. The method provides an accurate and repeatable system of making pericardial valves in which sheets or pieces of material are held securely in place relative to each other throughout the steps of assembling the valve. In addition, methods of the present invention include maintaining consistent alignment of the fixtures and pericardium material throughout the valve assembly process and utilize features that make the tooling components easy to assemble and handle. Certain aspects of the invention can be used to help establish a repeatable sewing and cutting technique for creating a pattern shape for valve leaflets, establishing stitch lengths, and determining the exact placement of stitches. | 01-28-2010 |
