FABRIC BELT.
Specication of Letters Patent. Patented Alilg. 26,1913.
Application led September,` 16, 1911. Serial N o. 649,625.
To alliwhom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, CHARLES S. SMITH,
of.Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in' Fabric Belts, of which the following is a specication. v
This invention relates to belts for personal wear, especiall of the type used by men for the waist ban s of trousers, although I do not limit myself to such' use, as belts of similar construction may be worn by women and children.
The object of the invention is to provide an improved waist belt which, although the band appears to be of line and heavy fabric having Substantially the body of a, leather belt, yet requires only a relatively small quantity of expensive fibrous material' to be employed. i
To this end the' invention consistsin a belt having its band portion consisting of a tubular seamless fabric member having an inner or llingmember, the two being so constructed and connected as to furnish practically no visible evidence that the band 1s not a single piece of .heavy fabric.` 'By the construction embodied, I amable to furnish handsome belts, at relatively low cost, which can be made of various fibrous materials and*- in any color, to match or properly cont-rast with, the material of the garment with which the belt is to be worn. Y
Of the accompanying drawings,-Figl1re 1 is a perspective view of a colnplete garment belt constructed according to' my invention. Fig. 2 represents a section o-n line 2-2 of Fig. 1, on a larger scale. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of-the outer 'fabric member orcoverin'g of the band. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the inner member or filler strip. Fig. 5 is a perspectiveview of the outer and inner members partly assembled. Fig. 6 is a broken out perspective view of the stitiened guide loop. Fig. 7 represents a section on lline 7-7 of Fig. 2, but illustratin a modification hereinafter referred to. Flg. 8 represents a section on line 8 8 of Fig. 3. Fig. 9 represents a section on line 9-9 of Fig. 4. Fig. 10 represents a section on line 10-10 of Fig. 5. Fig. 11 is a broken detail view to illustrate the method of forming the pointed end of the belt.
`view of the finished pointed end.
vSimilar reference characters indicate the same or similar parts in all of the views.
The belt comprises, as usual, a band which as a whole is indicated at a in Figs. 1 and 2, to one end o-f which is connected a buckle b that may be of any usual or preferred structure. The bandconsists of a seamless tubular strip of fabric 15 having a filler 16, said tubular strip 15 being preferably woven, although it might be braided without departing from my invention.` VThe tubular member' 15 may bel of silk, linen' or any other fibrous material. It will be hereinafter referred to as the covering or jacket. The filler strip 16 may be, and preferably is, of coarse woven and relatively inexpensive material. It is drawn into the covering or jacket by suitable machinery or tools, and is, in practice, of such width as to spread the covering to a smooth and .taut condition. It is shorter than the covering, and is formed with one end 17 straight .and the other end formed with a notch or angular recess 18, for reasons presently" described.
Before the filler stripis drawn`in, it is* coated' or sufficiently impregnated with an adhesive or semi-adhesive compound, preferably a rubber compound, to cause the 'inner surface of the covering to be so'intimately united to the filler strip, when subjected to pressure, (and in some cases heat also) ap-v plied to the two melnbers, as to prevent any possibility of the fine fabric jacket wrinkliug or buckling, or giving the appearancel of the belt' to be given a finished appearance and to exhibit no material difference as to thickness or body from the rest of the band. As indicated in Fig. 11, the inner and outer members, when assembled, permit the squared end of the covering to project as indicated by the dotted out-line. Then said end is tucked in by a suitable tool which is caused to push the corners 19 inward in the direction of the arrows, said corners going in to the position as indicated by the dotted lines 20 in Fig. 12. This results in infoldng the fabric so that its multiple vIl() forced or stifened by turning in the end of the tubular fabric and securing it so; that is, the portion of the strap which 4contains no filling, and which is composed of scamlesstubular fabric only, is so reinforced or stiffened. Said end is therefore adapted to be inserted through any buckle without liability of being curled up. At the other end .of the band, the covering extends sufliciently beyondthe straight end 17 of the filling strip, to connect the buckle and retaining or guide loop 25 thereto without unduly increasing the thickness of the belt at this point. The said loop is' preferably reinforced or stiffened by a metal core 26 (Fig. 6). The extended portion of the covering 15 isv folded about the attaching bar of the buckle (Fig. 2),v carried back, and the extreme end tucked inside the under side of the'loop 25; then two linesy of transverse stitches 27, 28, serve to confine both the fornace buckle and the loop in their relative positions.
As shown in Fig. 2, the straight end 17 of the filling strip terminates just short of the stitch line 27. I do not limit myself to this, however, as said filling may extend also inside the loop 25 to prevent the belt from bending too readily alongthe line 27.V In this case, a section through the loop would show the filling as in Fig. 7.
I do, not lilnit myself to the use of. my invention as a belt, since it may be usefully employed as a strap for other purposes.
I claim:
l. A strap composed of a yseamless tubular Woven fabric having a filling strip, one end of. said strip being recessed, the corresponding end portion of the tubular fabric being infolded and entering the recess of the strip.
2. A strap comprising a seamless tubular fabric having a close fitting filling of less length than the'fabric, one end of the tubular fabric being extended beyond the filling and folded back upon itself, and a buckle engaged by said folded-back portion.
In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
