ABSTRACT:
Improvements to a waistband end folding and stitching apparatus of the type in which the open terminal free end portion of an unfinished waistband having opposed fabric plies is presented to a folding station where the end portion is (1) inverted into the space between the spread plies to form an inturned edge; (2) the multiple plies of fabric are flattened by the application of pressure from a pair of opposed feet to facilitate sewing; (3) automatically transferred laterally in a horizontal plane to a seaming or stitching station, and (4) positively positioned in alignment with the sewing head for the application of at least one row of stitches parallel to and adjacent the inturned edge. The moving parts of the apparatus are hydraulically and pneumatically operated responsive to the predetermined program. At the end of the transfer stroke, the waistband end portion is received by a gripping apparatus then shifted into positive engagement with a lower stripper plate in proper alignment with the needle for the stitching operation.
