Specification of Letters Patent.
Application led July 6, 1915. Serial No. 38,127.
Be it known that I, ADELAIDE W. WHITE, a citizen of the United States of America, and resident of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga, in the State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hose-Supporters, of which the following, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to certain improvements in hose supporters adapted to be used moreparticularly for supporting ladies hose and involves the use of a strap or straps having one end adapted to be attached to a corset or other body garment and its other end provided with suitable clasps for detachable engagement with the top of the hose.
In many of the devices of this character now in common use, considerable diiiculty and annoyance is occasioned by accidental loosening ofl the clasps or tearing out of the hose.
rl`he main object of my present invention is to obviate these difficulties by providing clasps which engage a relatively larger area ot' the hose than is commonly practised and by arranging the clasps in such relation that when attached to the hose, the tendencyY of any increased strain is to further tighten the grip of the clasp upon the hose.
Another object is to provide simple means whereby the clasp may be loosened from the hose by a simple operation of pulling one or the clasp members upwardly relatively to its cooperative member by attaching such relatively movable member to the free end of one of the branches of the strap I and leaving such branch loose so as toform a loop which may be readily engaged by the linger and pulled upwardly without excessive bending or labor on the part or the wearer.
Other objects and uses will be brought out in the following description.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a face view, partly broken away, of my improved hose supporter and a portion of the body garment to which it is attached. Fig. 2 is a side elevation or the same supporter as operatively connected to a portion of a hose. Fig. 3 is a face View of the lower end of the supporter in operative engagement with a portion of the hose, as shown in Fig. 2.
Figs. 4 and 5 are perspective views of the detached clasp members.
This hose supporter comprises a main strap -1- of any suitable length having its upper end provided with means, as stitching, or other suitable means for attachment to a body garment, as a corset -A-, and its lower end provided with branch straps -2- and -2- of unequal length secured at one end by stitching or otherwise to the main strap -land having their lower free ends provided with means, as yloops --3 and -3-, for receiving and retaining a pair of cooperative clasps -4- and -4. The stra-p -2- .carries all of the strain between the hose -B- and garment support eA# and may be termed the hose-supporting strap. The other strap -2- serves merely as a means for supporting and withdrawing the clasp member -4- from its operative relation to the other clasp member 4 and-may betermed the clasp-releasing strap. These clasps are preferably made of sheet metal stampedto the desired form, -lbeing secured to the free end of the shorter branch -2- in a manner presently described and comprises a substantially at back -5-- having transverse slots --G- and -6- near the ends thereof forming transverse end bars -7- and -7- which are oi'l'set rearwardly a distance approximately equal to the thickness of the metal, the longitudinal edges being folded or overturned forwardly along downwardly converging lines so as to form tapering flanges -qw and an intervening tapering recess between the lianges and main body of the clasp for receiving the other clasp 4-.
The loop -3- embraces the bars -7- and -7-, one side of said loop being passed through slots -6-- and -6 at the back of the main body of the plate -5-, while the other side of the loop lies at the inner sides of the bars i7 and --7-, as shown more clearly in Fig. 2, and lies flatwise next to the leg to prevent contact of the metal therewith, the entire clasp member -l.-- together with the branch strap or tape 9.- and loop -3- being thin and broad and substantially flat .and is adapted to be placed at the inside of the hose as The main. body or. the clasp member -4 tapers longitudinally so as to closely Patented Sept. 12, 1916. v
the member near its ends forming fit between the sides of the flanges -8- of the clasp -4` with a wedging fit, and is cut away at ,-10` to form opposite side bars tapering downwardly, while the lower' end of the tapering body is rounding in cross section to allow it to be readily inserted in the clasp member -4 The upper end of the member -4K is enlarged or widened transversely and is provided with a transverse slot --l l` forming a cross bar l2` to which the loop -3- is attached by passing itl through the slot `ll-.
As previously stated, the loop -3- on the lower end of the branch --2` and its member-l` are placed against the inside of the upper portion of the hose B, after which the member -4- is placed against the outer face of the portion of the hose registered with the clasp 4iand pressed toward the base *.5 and then moved endwise downwardly with a wedging action toward the flanges `8, thereby gripping the intervening portions of the hose, at the same time leaving the main body of the branch -2- sufficiently loose or slack to form a finger loop by which the member -1* may be easily and quickly drawn upwardlyfout of interlocking connection with the member -l` when it is desired to release the hose from the support, it being un- A derstood that when the devlce is in operation, the entire strain of the hose is brought upon the branch 2- and not upon the branch -2-, the latter being sufficiently longer than the branch -2- to remain slack or loose when` its corresponding clasp -'lis adjusted for use.
lVhat I claim is:
l. The combination with a hose-support ing strap and a clasp-releasing strap, of a sheet metal plate having transverse slots transverse bars above the upper slot and below the lower slot, the portion of the plate between the slots being substantially flat, while the transverse bars are offset to one and the same side of the plane of the flat portion, thesaid flat portion being uninterrupted over its entire surface and free of projections, said plate having its opposite longitudinal edges overturned toward each other at the opposite side of the flat portion and converging toward one end to define wedge elements, the hose supporting strap having its free end formed into a loop embracing both of the transverse bars and having both of its sides extending across the back of the fiat portion of the corresponding plate, and a plate permanently attached to the clasp-releasing strap and having wedging coaetion with the overturned edges of the first-named plate to grip and release a portion of a hose therein and therefrom. y
2. In a hose supporter, a clasp comprising two metalplates, one 0f said plates having a substantially flat main body uninterrupted over its entire surface and free of projeetions and transverse slots at opposite ends of the flat portion forming transversely extending end bars, both of which are offset to one and the same side of the plane of the main body, said plate having its opposite edges overturned toward each other to one side of the main body and extending substantially the full length of the plate beyond the transverse slots, a strap having a loop passing through both slots at the back of the flat main body and embracing both of the end bars, the other plate having wedging coac` tion with the overturned edges of the firstnained plate, and a releasing strap permanently attached at one end to the secondnamed plate.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 23d day of June, 1915.
