Transverse shuttle. Longitudinal shuttle 1846 by Elias Howe [1] Figure 5 from Howe's patent 4750, showing transverse shuttle 'K' in its race: Transverse shuttles carry the bobbin in a boat-shaped shuttle, and reciprocate the shuttle along a straight horizontal shaft. The design was popularized in Singer's 'New Family' machine. [2]
A vibrating shuttle is a bobbin driver design used in home lockstitch sewing machines during the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. It supplanted earlier transverse shuttle designs, but was itself supplanted by rotating shuttle designs.
Later, to avoid litigation, he contrived a stationary bobbin, which became the permanent feature of the Wheeler & Wilson sewingmachine. [1] On the same day, August 12, Isaac M. Singer received his first patent on a transverse shuttle machine that became a
1846 Transverse shuttle. The transverse shuttle is a method to drive a bobbin on a sewing machine so as to create the lockstitch technique. Transverse shuttles carry the bobbin in a boat-shaped shuttle, and reciprocate the shuttle along a straight horizontal shaft. As the earliest of bobbin drivers, the transverse shuttle was patented by Elias ...
Long, narrow bobbins are used in early transverse shuttle and vibrating shuttle machines. These earlier movements were rendered obsolete by the invention of the rotary hook and the shuttle hook, which run faster and quieter with less air resistance. These shorter, wider bobbins are familiar to modern sewers, as the rotary/shuttle hook remains ...
The button is located on the improved shuttle frame, Singer part number 54507, which can be retrofitted onto older model 27 and 28 machines. The bobbin winder is mounted high on the pedestal, where a small rubber tire occupying its pulley makes contact with the motor belt.
A Utah State University student was arrested after admitting to releasing chemical gas in his dorm hours after being questioned by FBI Terrorism Task Force investigators.
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".
