ROBERT HENRY EDDY, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO A. G. EDDY OF SAME PLAGE.
IMPROVEMENT IN SUSPENDERS.
To all lwhom it may concern:
Be it known that I, RoRERl` HENRY EDDY, of Boston, in the county of Suil'olk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Pantaloon-Suspenders5 and do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawing, of which- Figure 1 is a front view, and Fig. 2 arear view ot' a pair of suspenders made in accordance with my present improved plan in order to be practically or essentially anti-waist constrictile.
In each of the suspenders, as represented in the United States Patent No. 115,722, dated June 6, 1871, there is shown an intermediate strap a between each button-strap b and the shoulderstrap A, the two intermediate straps being connected to a buckle, E, to receive the shoulder-strap.
In carrying out my presentimprovement or i11- vention I dispense with one of the intermediate or auxiliary straps and extend each sh oulder-strap A, (see Figs. 1 and 2,) down to a single buttonstrap, C, and connect the two by a buckle, a, and from the shoulder-strap, at the shoulder portion thereof, I extend a branch strap or stay, D, provided witli a button-hole or connected with a button-strap, E, by a buckle, F. In connecting the branch strap with the shoulder-strap I make use of a slide or buckle, G, to slide on the shoulderstrap lengthwise and be held thereto by friction or a tongue, the branch strap being fixed to the said slide or buckle.
In order to prevent constriction of the waist of the pantaloons by the shoulder-straps I connect the two by a back connection, H, which may be adjustable in length, in order that the shoiilder-straps, when in use, may be square to the back of the waist or a little divergent from one another as they rise upward from the Waist to the shoulders.
By having the branch strap or stay adjustable on 'the shoulder-strap and the latter extended be- 10W the junction of the two in manner as shown down to a short button-strap or going through a buckle connecting the two, We have a means not only of readily taking up or letting out the buttonstrap on the shoulder-strap,but of adjusting the upper slide or buckle ofthe branch strap as high up on the shoulder-strap or as close to the shoulder as it maybe convenient to wear it, the branch strap being subsequentlylet out or taken up, so as to adapt it to support the abdominal part of the pantaloons with little or no tendency to constriction of the waist portion of such.
The improved suspenders constructed as de scribed; and as represented in the accompanying drawing, have the advantages of those described in the aforementioned patent, with the additional one of much longer shoulder-straps and a proportional increase of elasticity when they are, throughout, of elastic webbing.
I would remark that in weaving the shoulderstraps thel front halfl or portion of the length of each may be made inelastic and the rest elastic, as some persons may prefer to have the elasticity only in the back and shoulder-bearing part of each of such straps.
I claim as my invention the following, viz:
1. A suspender as composed not only ot' a single shoulder-strap and a button-strap connected by a slide or buckle, as set forth, but also of a branch button-strap connected with or applied to the shoulder-strap above its connection with the first button-strap.
2. The improved suspender, made substantially as described, viz., as composed ofthe long shoulderstrap A, the single adjustable button-strap C, the slide or buckle G, and the branch strap leading from such slide G, and composed of a single strap, D, or two straps, D E, connected by a buckle, all being arranged essentially as eX- plained.
ROBERT HENRY EDDY.
