CHARLES E. WAGSTAFFE BATESON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR T0 STANDARD KNITTING MILLS COMPANY, A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
UNION SUIT.
Application filed April 25, 1913.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES E. WAG- STAFFE BATESON, a resident of the borough of Manhattan, city of New York, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Union Suits, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to produce a union suit from tubular knitted fabrics such as are produced upon a circular knitting machine, using as little material and as few seams as possible, and so arranging and locating the seams that they will be in a comfortable position for the wearer and will hold the garment closed both at the front and at the rear.
In the drawings accompanying this specification, Figure 1 is a front or rear view of the complete garment and Fi s. 2 and 3 are diagrammatic representations showing the method of cutting the various partsfrom a tube.
Referring to Fig. 1 it will be seen that the garment consists essentially of a body portion 1 and two leg portions 2 and 3. Each of these portions 1, 2 and 3 are cut from a tube knitted upon a circular knitting machine. The body portion 1, however, may be shaped to conform to the figure in any desired way.
It will be seen that the leg portions 2 and 3 are attached to the body portion 1 by means of a single seam which goes completely around the garment. This seam consists at the front and rear of two inclined portions l and 5 and a horizontal portion 6. Inclined portion 4: of the seam is used to attach leg portion 2 and inclined portion 5 of the seam is used to attach leg portion 3, the horizontal portion 6 of the seam being used to attach both of the leg portions to the body, thus forming an over- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 13, 1215.
Serial No. 763,477.
lap of substantial length, which insures the complete closure of the garment.
In cutting the garment a tube such as that shown in Fig. 2 is used to form the leg portions and the cuts are made along the lines shown. Thus the line 7 forms the cut away edge shown by the corresponding number in Fig. 1, the horizontal portion 8 is attached by means of seam 6 and the inclined portion 9 is that attached by the seam 5. The other end of the tube forms the other leg member so that the only waste of material in cutting the garment is the small parallelogram included between the cutting lines shown in Fig. 2. In making the body portion the tube is cut as shown in Fig. 3 and then folded upon itself and out along the lines 10, 10 and 11. 1
While I have shown one form my invention may take, I do not wish to be limited to that form, as it is obvious that it may be modified without departing from the spirit of my invention.
What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A reversible union suit having its body and leg portions united by a single seam having a horizontal portion and two oppositely disposed inclined portions at both the front and back of the garment, said leg portions overlapping each other both in front and in back throughout the horizontal portion of the seam which secures both overlapping portions to the body portion.
In Witness whereof I have signed my name in the presence of two witnesses this 16th day of April, 1918.
CHARLES E- WAGSTAFFE BATESON.
