  • Patent number: 4123124
    Abstract: A cabinet and work table for a sewing machine having a convertible work supporting bed capable of conversion from a flat work supporting bed to a free-arm bed.

The sewing machine is supported in the cabinet with the work supporting bed forwardly of, contiguous with and spaced above the rear work supporting surface. The shiftable front work supporting surface may be shifted from a first position co-planar with the rear work supporting surface, wherein the sewing machine may be used in a free-arm mode, to a second position co-planar and contiguous to the work supporting bed of the sewing machine for the flat bed sewing mode, wherein the front work supporting surface augments the flat work supporting bed of the sewing machine.

  • Patent number: 4103633
    Abstract: An improved track storage system for sewing machines having means for permitting the rotation of a sewing machine 90 degrees about its vertical axis. The improved track storage system allows a sewing machine to be stored in a cabinet or enclosure whose depth is sufficient to accommodate the depth of a machine and moved onto the horizontally opened work surface leaf of such an enclosure in a position displaced 90.degree. to its stored position. The improvement is effectuated by an arrangement of tracks which are used to guide and position a plurality of guide studs fixedly attached to and depending from the bottom of the sewing machine base. Two parallel tracks are set into the inside leaf of an enclosure containing a sewing machine so as to form a guideway for moving the machine from its stored position within the enclosure to its operating position on the horizontally opened leaf of the enclosure.
