ABSTRACT:
A convertible semiautomated sewing station runs and top stitches cuffs, collars, shirt flaps or decorative pieces. Instead of gripping the sewn fabric blanks as in the prior art, a presser arm pushes the fabric blanks against a work table and slides the blanks from a loading guide to a sewing head and then to a transfer station. A pick up mechanism moves the sewn blanks from the transfer station to a station where the sewn blanks are accumulated. Small apparel manufactures can convert the machine from producing cuffs to producing collars, pocket flaps or decorative pieces, or vice versa, in only a few minutes. The cycle time of the station is less than the prior art because the presser arm does not have to move the sewn blanks all the way to the accumulator station.
