    Abstract: An automatic rib cuff machine which allows a single operator to attach sleeves to cuffs and wherein the machine automatically sews a sleeve to a cuff when the operator places the sleeve blanket into the machine and actuates an electric eye which initiates the sewing machine to sew the sleeve to the cuff and wherein a second electric eye operates a cutter to cut the cuff web between adjacent units and wherein a first conveyor conveys the completed cuff sleeve to a stacker which is actuated by a third electric eye to stack the cuffs on a second conveyor. The operator can control the second conveyor to return the stacked cuffs to her and the machine allows a single operator wherein the machine of the prior required two operators to operate it and cut the sleeves apart.
