The Singer Model 27 and later model 127 were a series of lockstitch sewing machines produced by the Singer Manufacturing Company from the 1880s to the 1960s. (The 27 and the 127 were full-size versions of the Singer 28 and later model 128 which were three-quarters size). They were Singer's first sewing machines to make use of "vibrating shuttle ...
To intertwine them, the machine must pass its shuttle (containing the bobbin and the lower thread) through a loop temporarily created from the upper thread. Singer bullet shuttle with bobbin exposed Early sewing machines of the 19th century oscillate their shuttles back and forth on linear horizontal tracks—an arrangement called a ...
Lockstitch is the familiar stitch performed by most household sewing machines and most industrial "single needle" sewing machines, using two threads, one passed through a needle and one coming from a bobbin or shuttle. Each thread stays on its own side of the material while being sewn, interlacing with the other thread at each needle hole by ...
1851 by Allen B. Wilson [8] Figures from Wilson's patent 9041, showing rotary hook and bobbin: Rotary hook machines hold their bobbin stationary, and continuously rotate the thread hook around it. The design was popularized in the White Sewing Machine Company's 'Family Rotary' sewing machine [9] and Singer's models 95 and 115. [10]
The rotary hook or rotating hook is a bobbin driver design used in lockstitch sewing machines since the 19th century. It triumphed over competing designs because it can run at higher speeds with less vibration. Rotary hooks and oscillating shuttles are the two most common bobbin drivers in use today.
shaft - a length suitable for driving the eye and thread through the material and down to the bobbin; groove - cut in the front of the shaft to allow the thread to lie more closely to the needle as it passes through the fabric; scarf - provides extra room for the hook or shuttle to pass close by; eye - carries the thread
Trade card, ca 1900. The White Sewing Machine was the first sewing machine from the White Sewing Machine Company. [1] It used a vibrating shuttle bobbin driver design. For that reason, and to differentiate it from the later White Family Rotary that used a rotary hook design instead, it came to be known as the "White Vibrating Shuttle" or "White VS".
Singer obtained patent no. 8294 in August 1851 for an improved sewing machine that included a circular feed wheel, thread controller, and power transmitted by gear wheels and shafting. [ 2 ] Singer consolidated enough patents in the field to enable him to engage in mass production, and by 1860 his company was the largest manufacturer of sewing ...
