Beit-known that I, VICTOR H. JENNINGS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Worcester, in the county of Worcester, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in WVoven Carriers, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.

The invention has relation to woven pocketed carriers. It is applicable especiallyvin the case of carriers on the orderof those employed as cartrldge carr1ers,'but 1s--not necessarily restricted thereto.

The invention 'COIlSlSbS 1n an improved pocketed carrier of novel construction, which which will stand out from the back ofthe pocket with the required fullness to give the pocket the desired ample internal capacity, and characterized by having a smooth front, free from the puckers, gathers, or wrinkles Y which commonly exist in the tapering-contracted lower portions of pockets made a heretofore. v

The improved pocketed carrier has a pocket that is formed with the pocket-front integrally joined to the pocket-back at the bottom of the pocket, and united laterally with the pocket-back by means ofside-wall web-portions which, as 'woven,,are free at their lower ends. The side-wall web-portionsare produced as plain web-strips of the required proportions to permit the pocketfront to stand out from the pocket-back to the extent necessary to secure the desired fullness and capacity of the pocket. The lower portions of the said side-wall web-portions are tucked inwardly between the pocket-front and pocket-back, and are made secure by fastenings, such for instance as stitches.

The drawings illustrate the improved pocketed carrier, and also the method of producing the same.

Figure 1 of the drawings is a front elevation of one of the pockets of the said carrier, and its cover-flap, together with adjacent portions of the body-web or band of the carrier.

Fig. 2 isan edge View of the parts that are shown in Fig. 1, thebody-Web or'band being in vertical section." I v v.

s Fig. 3 is a front View, I with r-portions broken away, of the parts shown in-Figsn and 2, as produced in a loom, withoutthe cover-flap. y or I Fig. 4 is a bottom View: of the parts that are shown in Fig. c

In the drawings, 1 designates a portion of the body-webfor band of acarrier, such portion being located at'one sidejoffthe pocket which is about to be described. ,2 is the sidewall atsuch side of the said pocket. in Figs. 3 and 4 is the pocket-back; 4:"IS the pocket-front, it being-as ,stated integrally I joined to the pocket-back at the bottom of the pocket. 5 is the other side-wall. of the pocket, and 6 isa portion of the body-web or band next adjoining the side-wall 5. In Figs.- 1 and 2, 7. is a cover-flap of usual character, and 8, 9, are fasteningdevices of usual character, applied respectively to .the pocketfront and cover-flap, and designed to secure the cover-flap when the latter has been closed down over the'pocket. I As stated previously herein, the side-wall web-portions 2 and 5 are free at their lower ends or edges, as woven. This isillustrated in Figs?) and 4, which show a pocket-web before the'tucking-in of the lower portions of the said side-wall,web-portions, and before the'application ofthe cover-flap. As stated,.also,ethe proportions of these 'sidewall web-portions are such as to permit the pocket-front 4 to stand out from the pocketback 3 to the extent necessary to; produce a pocket of the desired internal capacity. In

completing a pocket, the lower portions of the side-wall web-portions are tucked inward between the pocket-front and pocketback, as indicated by Figs. 1 and 2, and the tucked-in portions are secured by fastenings, in this instance stitches 10, 10, Fig. 1, engaging with the pocket-front, the tucked-in portions, and the pocket-back. In addition, when a cover-flap, as 7 is employed, it is suitably applied and connected. with the. pocket.

In weaving the pocket-web shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the portion 1 of the body-web or band first is woven of the required thickness. On arriving at the point at which side-wall 2 should sprin from the said body-web or band, certain of the warp threads embodied in the said portion 1 of the body-web or band are left idle while the remainder of such warp-threads are interwoven with weft-thread or filling to form a separate ply having upper and lower selvages. The weaving of this separate ply with the upper and lower selvagesis continued until a side-wall web-portion 2 of dimensions which will permit the pocketfront to stand out at the required distance from thepocket-back has been produced. A continuation of the separate ply forming theside-wall web-portion 2 forms also the pocket-front 4:. The pocket-front 4 and pocket-back .3 are woven concurrei'itly, by causing the weft-thread or filling to pass first from the edge of the web at which the open mouth of the pocket is located, through the warp-threads ofthe said separate ply then back through the warpthreads which were left idle during the weaving of sidewall web-portion 2 to the starting edge ofthe web, and then reversely through the latter warp-threads and back through those of the separate ply to the starting edge again,- and so on as before. This mode otweavi'ng produces a pocketfrontand pocket-back which are united integrall y at the bottom of the pocket in the weaving, by means ofthe weft-thread passing from the ply constituting the pocketfront to' the ply constituting the pocketback, and Vice versa'; and as usual, also; it provides the pocket-front and pocket-back, respectiVely With selvages at the open mouth or the pocket. The weaving of the pocketfront and pocket-back concurrently is continued until they-have been produced of the required dimensions fora pocket of the desired width from side to side, Preferably they will be equal, although to'a certain ex tent a greater number of picks of weft-thread or filling may be incorporated in well-known manner in the pocket-front than in the Gopie's'of this patent may be obtained. for fiire' cents each, by

succession of pockets will, as usual; be divided up into lengths comprising one or more pockets, as desired. l I

l/Vhat is claimed as the invention is,- e

1. The improved woven pocketed carrier having a pocket that isformed with the pocket-front integrallyjoined to the pocketback at the bottom of the pocket, and united laterally with the-pocket-back by means of sidewall web-portions which,' as woyen, are free at their lower ends; with the said lower ends tucked inwardly between the pocketfront and pocket-back andfastened in place;

2. The impro e'd-woven' pocketed carrier having a pocket that is formedwith'the pocket-front integrally joined to the pocketback at the bottom of the pocket, and united laterally with the pocket-back by means of side-wallweb-portionswhich; as woven; are free at their lower endstwi'th the said lower ends tucked inwardly between the pocketfront and pocket-back and secured'in place by stitches passingthroughthe pocket-front, tucks, and pocket-back.
