Machine for sizing and processing drapery material
Abstract
Abstract An endless belt of substantial width carries a measured length of drapery material through the machine and through a processing appliance at one end of the machine. Fabric is tumbled from a holder, at the entrance side of the machine through it into a holder at the exit side of the machine. The material passing through the machine comprises several widths seamed together. An accurately measured total width is held by pressure rollers over the endless belt, the measured width being the accurately measured length of a drape being formed. At the end of the machine, the edge of the material which will be the top edge of the drape passes under and then is folded over a plate in an accurate amount, the excess material being continuously cut off by a cutter. A strip of stiffening buckram leads from a roll underneath the plate into a position
