SAFETY-POCKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
, ratenteaapr. 29,1913.
Application filed J' une 26, 1912. Serial No. 705,933.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES WV. PENNEWrLL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Silver City, in the county of Grant and State of New Mexico, have invented a new and Improved Safety-Pocket, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved pocket especially adapted for trousers, and having means whereby to prevent the contents of the pocket from slipping out when the wearer is in a sitting or reclining position.
The invention will be particularly described in the specific description hereinafter to be given.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification, in which like characters of reference denote corresponding parts in all the views, and in which- Figure 1 is a fragmentary view showing in elevation my attachment applied to a trousers pocket, part of the fabric of the trousers being broken away; Fig. 2 is a rear View; and Fig. B is a horizontal sectional view.
In forming a pocket having the practical embodiment of my invention as illustrated, the pocket 10 may be formed in the main in any approved manner, and properly secured within the trousers 11. In connection with the pocket I employ a gusset 12, which in practice I prefer to make of elastic fabric. The gusset is positioned at the opening of the pocket, at the lower end of said opening, and comprises the sides 13 which are preferably of triangular shape. The rear vertical edges of the gusset are secured to the garment by stitching, as at 14, and the walls meet and join at the lower edges, as at 15. 'Ihe gusset thus presents upper and lower edges that converge in the direction of the inside of the pocket to a point, as at 16. It will be seen that the inner end of the gusset projects by free portions within the pocket and overhangs therewithin. Desirably the side walls 13 of the gusset are stitched to the walls of the pocket, as at 17. The said row of stitching extends from the pocket opening and terminates short of the overhanging free converged end 16. By thus shaping and securing the gusset the side walls thereof readily separate when the pocket is expanded by the insertion of the hand. and the elastic character of the material permits it to yield under the pressure of the hand, instead of constituting an unyielding contraction of the pocket. The side walls 13 may be continuous with each other, or may be separate. In either case there is preferably a row of stitching, as at 18, along the bottom of the attachment adjacent to the point of meeting of the side walls, in order to give the attachment a tendency to maintain the creased form so that the side walls will lie flat and close to each other.
It will be seen that in the described con` struction, the gusset, by reason of its position at the opening of the pocket and the partial securing of the upper edges of the gusset to the side walls of the pocket, will be positioned and sustained at the proper angle, and thus in the closed position of the pocket, the disposition of the gusset with its upwardly inclined lower edge will eiectually prevent coins and the like from rolling out, and upon the opening or partial opening of the pocket, accidentally, or in response to the insertion of the hand of the wearer, the gusset will form a positive barrier in the form of a diaphragm at the pocket opening.
It will be evident that with a pocket provided with my attachment, when the wearer of the garment is sitting or reclining, in case the contents, such as change, pen knife and the like, should gravitate toward the pocket opening, the angle formed by the rear wall of the main pocket and the overhanging attachment at the lower end of the pocket opening will arrest such contents, and retain them in the pocket beneath the overhanging attachment.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is A safety pocket having a gusset therein composed of two triangular members each presenting upper, outer, and bottom edges, the outer edges of the two members meeting at a point adjacent to the lower end of the pocket opening and extending upwardly from said point along and within the pocket opening, and secured along their whole length to the sides of the pocket, the upper edges being also secured to the sides of the pocket, from the outer ends of the said edges to points short of their inner ends, and vthe bottom edges of the members being joined name to this speoeation in tbe presence of together and ranging upwardly, atan angle two subscribing witnesses.
to the outer seam of the pocket the gusset l when the pocket is open, constitiitng a par JAMES WILLIAM PENNEWILL 5 tition ranging upwardly across the opening, Witnesses:
above the bottom of said opening. T. W. DREIFUSS,
In testimony whereof I have signed my T. W. BRAZIEL.
Copies of this patent may be obtained for ve cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents.
