Cap support for an embroidery machine

---

Abstract

---

An embroidery machine has an attachment for stitching hats and caps. The attachment fits over a saddle of the embroidery machine. A cap driver is carried on the saddle. The base of the cap driver moves parallel to the axis of the saddle in unison with a carriage member. The cap driver has an arcuate member which will rotate pivotally relative to the base. A cap retainer releasably fastens to the arcuate member. A guide bar located between the base of the cap driver and the sides of the saddle engages bearings for resisting upward and downward movement of the cap driver relative to the saddle during stitching of the cap.
