US 587.257                         John Milton Greist

Sewing Machine Ruffler

My invention relates to sewing machine rufflers or ruffling attachments and has for one of its objects to provide a ruffler in which the throw of the ruffling-blade may be adjust ed with great nicety or delicacy, so that the said blade may have a great number of varying or different strokes and also to provide means whereby the proper timing thereof may be retained when the throw of the needle-bar is changed to adapt the ruffler to be operated from the needle-bars of sewing machines in which the needles have different or varying vertical movements without throwing the ruffling-blade out of proper timing. My improved ruffler also comprises means whereby the separator-plate may be withdrawn from operative position without being removed from the ruffler when it is desired to use the attachment for shirring in connection with a shirring-plate attached to the work-plate of the machine or to the throat-plate or shuttle cover slide.
