Description

PATENT' OFFICE.
CHARLES COESTER, ,AND JAMES L. MOORE; OF BRIDGEPORT, CONN.
lMPROVEMENT IN GARTERS.
Specification forming part ofl Letters Patent No. 106,328. dated August 16, 1870.
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, CHARLEs COEsTEE, Jr., and JAMES. L. MOORE, both of Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and Improved Garter, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.
Our invention consists in a garter made of wire or a strip of metal coiled into a spring, which, in its cross-section, may be either circular, elliptical, or of a flattened form, and which has its ends united or connected.
In the accompanying drawings, which illustrate our invention, Figure l is a view of a garter the transverse section of which is circular, showing it clasped; and Fig. 2 isaview of the same, showing it unclasped and eX- tended.
Sirnilar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the figures. l
This garter is made by coiling a wire of brass or other elastic metal after the forni of I a helical spring and bending one end to fOrIn normal condition than the circumference of the portion of the leg which it is to encircle, so that when it is applied to the stocking on the leg and its ends secured by the hook and eye it will be stretched to such a degree as to produce sufficient tension to rnily hold the stocking in place. In a garter thus constructed there is not the liability to lose its elasticity, which is so common with the elastic garters now in use.
Instead of the garter being constructed as shown in the drawings, it may have its transverse section of au elliptical or flattened forni, and, instead of having its ends vbent into a hook and eye, may have a fastening or fastenings of other constructions attached theret0. The ends, however, may be permanently united or connected, inwhich case it must be put on by slipping it over the foot to its proper place on the leg.k
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A garter composed of a single piece of wire coiled in the forni of a spring, and one end v formed into an eye and the other into a hook, substantially as hereindescribed, as a new article of manufacture.
