i GARMENT-STAY.
Patented May so, 191e.
Application ined May s, 1915. serial No. 26,749.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, CLYDE C. SELEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Corry, in the county of Erie and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain `new and useful Improvements in Garment-Stays; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and eXact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, forming part of this specication.
My invention relates to improvements in garment-stays and consists substantially in forming a garment stay of a plurality of three or more wires bent into overlapping loops and so associated together that the loop portion of each wire alternately passes under the loop portion of two adjacent wires at one edge of the stay and over thev loop portion of two adjacent wires.' at the other edge thereof, whereby said wires 1nterlock between each edge and the center of l the stay.
I am aware that garment stays have been made of a plurality ofV wires having the loops interlocked at one edge of the stay, but my construction differs therefrom in that the loops are not interlocked at the edge of the stay, but instead the loops of one of the wires will interlock with the diagonal transverse portions of the other wires between either edge and the middle of the stay when moved laterally with relation to the other wires, by means of which construction I am enabled to produce a gar# ment having an edgewise flexibility alike in both directions, which is not possible when the loops are interlocked at the edge of the stay. These and other features of my invention are hereinafter fully set forth and pointed out and are illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1, is a front view in elevation of a garment stay embodying my invention. 2, is an edgewise view of the same..F1g. 3, is an enlarged detail of the same 1llustrating the relation of the several wires to each other.
In these drawings the several wires forming my improved garment stay are indicated by the numerals 1, 2 and 3, each of which having formed therein a series of opreference being had to the positely disposed loops 4, 5 and 6, said wires 1, 2 and 3, being so associated together that the loops 4, in wire 1,- are under the loops 5 and 6, in wires 2 and 3, at one edge of the stay, and are over the loops 5 and 6, in
of wires 1 and 3, at one edge of the stay, and over loops 4 and v6, of wires 1 and 3, at the opposite edge of the stay, and pass under the diagonal transverse portions of wire 1, adjacent to middle of the stay, as indicated by the numeralS, and back over the diagonal transverse portion of wire 3, as indicated by the numeral 9, and the loops 6, of wire 3, pass under loops 4 and 5 of wires 1 and 2, at one edge ofthe stay, and over ythe loops 4 and 5, at the opposite edge thereof, while the diagonal transverse portions of wire 3, cross over the like portions of wire 1, and under the like .portions ofv wire 2. It will be observed that byv this arrangement of wires that the diagonal transverse portions of wire 1, always cross over the like portions of wire 2, and always cross under the like portions of wire 3, and that the diagonal transverse portions of wire 2, always pass under wire 1, and over wire 3, and that the diagonal transverse portions of wire 3, always pass over like portions of wire 1, and under wire 2, and that all of said crossings of said transverse diagonal portions of the several wires are adjacent to either side ofthe middle of the stay as indicated by the numerals 7 8 and 9, so that each of the wires will interlock with the others at substantially said crossing points to prevent the disassociation of said wires, and that as said interlock, becoming effective only in case of lateral movement of one of said wires with relation to the others, permits the overlapping loops at each edge of the stay to move past each other during edgewise bending of the stay, thereby rendering the stay equally flexible in either edgewise direction.
Having thus fully shown and described the construction and operation of my invention so as to enable others to construct and utilize the saine, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is l. The combination of a plurality of three or more wires each of which is bent into a series of oppositely disposed loops and so associated together that the loop portions of each' wire alternately pass under the loop portions of two adjacent wires at one edge of the stay and over the loop portions of two adjacent wires at the other edge of the stay, substantially as set forth.
2; The combination of a plurality of three or more wires each of which is bent into a In testimony whereof I afiX my signature, 20
in presence of two witnesses.
