Abstract
In a trousers-fly-serging apparatus, a fly is fed on and along a feed table by a retaining portion of a linear supply section, and pressing levers attached to lower portions of four corners of a support body move down to press and retain the fed fly with tip ends of the pressing levers. Then, a rod actuated by a pressure cylinder is towed to rotate a rear portion of the support body about a pin as a pivot provided at a front end portion of the support body, so that one corner portion of a leading end portion of the fly is trimmed into an arcuate shape by a cutter and at the same time, the arcuately trimmed edge portion is serged by a needle. According to the apparatus, therefore, the one corner portion of the leading end of the fly can be trimmed into a uniform arcuate shape.
