<p>A device (50) for guiding a concealed slide fastener (20) to a sewing machine (40) includes a pair of spaced track bodies (57, 57) mounted on a slanted guide plate (54) and each comprising a block (60) fixedly mounted on the guide plate (54) and a cover member (67) movably mounted on said block (60). The block (60) and the cover member (67) jointly define a guide channel (70) for guiding an element assembly (32) of the slide fastener (20) therethrough while the slide fastener (20) is fed down the guide plate (54) toward a sewing position (44) on the sewing machine (40). The guide channel (70) includes a recess (72; 79) for accommodating coupling heads (33) of the element assembly (32) at an inlet end therof, the recess (72; 79) being shaped for automatically erecting the element assembly (32) from a horizontal position to a vertical position as the element assembly (32) is moved progressively through the guide channel (70). The guide plate (54) supports a means for sensing an end of the concealed slide fastener (20). </p> |
