METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SEWING FLY PIECES TO A SLIDE FASTENER CHAIN

摘要

In a sewing of successive substantially rectangular fly pieces to a continuous slide fastener chain on a sewing machine, a corner of the leading end of the individual fly piece is automatically folded as the fly piece is advanced toward a sewing station defined by the sewing machine, then two plies of the folded corner are joined with a line of stitches when the fly piece is sewn to the slide fastener chain by the same stitches. A longitudinal edge of the fly pieces is serged with a line of overedge stitches running across the folded corner.
