Abstract

See full text

Bight stitches at sides and bar tack stitches at ends of a buttonhole site are formed by periodically oscillating a needle bar holder over lesser and greater angles while a needle is in an up position. The needle bar holder is fixed to a horizontal transverse shaft. One end of a long, generally vertical arm is clamped to the shaft, and a generally horizontal link is pivoted to a lower end of the arm and to an adjustment slide in an upper arm of the inverted Y-shaped follower plate. The Y-shaped follower plate is pivoted on a central horizontal pivot. A double cam engages cam follower rollers oppositely extending from lower ends of the Y-shaped follower plate. Periodically, while the needle is up, the cams move the follower plate back and forth.
