Abstract
The disclosed stitching machine has fabric handling structures, including a rack and rack support structures suited for allowing rack movement between spaced loading/unloading and stitching stations, and clamps on the rack suited for holding fabric for stitching. Flooring structure provided at the loading/unloading station is suited to be shifted between a loading configuration to underlie the rack and support fabric laid thereon until it can be gripped and held by the rack clamps upon such being closed, and an unloading configuration out of the way of an overlying stitched fabric yet held on the rack suited to allow such fabric to fall from the machine upon the rack clamps being opened. Power devices shift such flooring between the loading and unloading configurations, and the rack between the loading/unloading and stitching stations. A sewing machine mounted at the stitching station is controlled to trace out and stitch the fabric as desired.
