ABSTRACT:
Fabric parts are fed to a sewing operation through a lap seam folder and the overlapped edges of the parts are maintained in proper relationship by a pair of rollers engageable with the respective parts and mounted for rotation in respective planes of rotation which intersect the feedline of the parts approaching the sewing needle. The rollers are mounted on pivotally supported arms which are operably connected to respective pneumatic cylinder type actuators for moving the arms between operative and retracted positions and for adjusting the biasing force on the arms in accordance with the type of fabric being fed through the seam folder device. The biasing forces on the rollers may be adjusted by adjusting the plane of rotation with respect to the feed direction as well as by the biasing force provided by the respective actuators.
