British complete specification (No. 25,686 of 1910) for a hosiery singeing machine invented by three Philadelphia manufacturers under the International Convention. The machine carries curved stocking supports on radial arms rotating past gas burner tubes that singe loose fibres. The operator loads stockings in much the same position as with the old board forms. A chain-driven stripping finger running faster than the supports removes the stockings, and an optional water-cooling circuit through the hollow supports allows singeing of stockings in the "green" state. Includes claims and two sheets of drawings.
