Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 8, 1917.
Application filed February 28, 1916. Serial No. 80,996.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE II. KE, a citizen of the United States of America, a resident of the city of St. Louis, State of Mia souri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment-Supporters, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
My invention relates to improvements in garment supporters, one of the objects being to produce a strong, simple and inexpensive garment supporter. Another object is to produce a device of this kind having simple garment holding devices adapted to be securely locked in their operative positions, so that they will not be accidentally released from the garment. l/Vith the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention comprises certain combinations of elements and certain novel details of construction which will be hereafter described.
Figure Iis a perspective view of a garment holding device constructed in accordance with the invention.
Fig. II is a front elevation showing a suspension strap secured to the upper end of the device, the contractible garment-receiving member being shown in its open or expanded condition.
Fig. III is a view similar to Fig. II showing the garment-receiving device contracted and locked in its operative condition.
Fig. IV is a vertical section on line IVIV, Fig. III showing a portion of a garment secured in the contractible garmentreceiving member.
A designates an elastic suspension strap secured to a suspension loop 1. B designates a yieldable clasp or garment-receiving device, preferably a wire spring, bent to form an upper loop 2, a contractible lower loop 3 adapted to receive a portion of a garment and diverging members i uniting said loops. The yieldable garment-receiving device B is pivotally secured to the suspension loop 1 by means of a sheet metal memher 5, in the form of a flattened tube, surrounding portions of the loops 1 and 2. The lower loop 3 of the device B is provided with free inturned end portions arranged end to end one of which is in the form of a tube (3, the other being arranged within and inclosed by said tube. This tube is soldered, or otherwise suitably secured, to one end of the wire spring which constitutes the yieldable device B. It will be noted that the garment-receiving loop 3 may be contracted from the condition shown in Fig. II to the condition shown in Fig. III, and that one free end portion of the wire spring will slide in the tube 6 in response to a movement of this kind.
C designates an elongated garment holding button adapted to pass freely into the contractible garment-receiving loop 3 when the latted is in its open or expanded condi- ,tion, and adapted to interlock with said loop when it is contracted. The button C is provided at its ends with grooves 7 adapted to receive portions of the loop 3, as shown most clearly in Fig. I. A back member 8, larger than the body of the button, is secured thereto so as to prevent the button from being accidentally forced entirely through the loop 3 when the latter is in its expanded condition. 1O designates a flexible retaining strap, preferably a narrow strip of fabric, secured to the back of the button C and also secured to the loops 1 and 2 at the upper end of the yieldable device B.
In using my garment supporter, a portion of the garment G is inserted into the contractible loop 3 above the inturned ends of the loop, and the button 0 is then inserted into said loop while the latter is in its open or expanded condition. Thereafter, the loop 3 is contracted to firmly clamp the garment onto the button C with the inturned ends of the loop beneath it. A band 12, surrounding the diverging members 4: (Fig. II) may be forced downwardly to move said members toward each other, thereby contracting the loop 3. The members 4 are bent to form detents 13 which serve as means for securely holding the band 12 in the position to which it is adjusted in clamping the garment onto the button C. These detents allow the band 12 to be forced downwardly in contracting the loop 3, and when said band has been firmly forced to its operative position, it is locked and prevented from moving upwardly by the detents 13.
The clasp or button-receiving device B of my garment supporter differs quite essentially from the corresponding part in previous articles of this kind, by reason of the lower loop 3 of said clasp having the inturned ends which are separated and move endwise relative to each other when said lower loop is expanded to pass over the button of the garment fastener and contracted to hug said button. This construction makes it possible for the lower loop to be contracted so that it will grip the button much more perfectly than is possible in the use of a button engaging loop having separated ends which do not extend on end toward each other beneath the button. This is due to the fact that the ends being arranged as they are in the improved device serve to draw the portion of the garment on the button inwardly to the lower face of the button in a positive manner and hold the garment at this point from any slippage.
I claim 1. A garment supporter comprising a button, means for suspending said button, and a clasp between which and said button a garment may be held, said clasp including a suspension member, a button receiving loop and connecting members between said suspension member and loop, said button receiving loop having alined inturned end portlons arranged end to end beneath the button; and means operable on said connecting members whereby said button receiving loop may be contracted to move its inturned end portions endwise toward each other.
2. A garment supporter comprising a button, means for suspending said button, and a clasp between which and said button a garment may be held to said button, said clasp including a suspension member, a button-receiving loop and connecting members between said suspension member and loop, said button receiving loop having end portions arranged end to end beneath the button, one of which istelescopically fitted to the other; and means operable on said connecting members whereby said button receiving loop may be contracted to move its inturned end portions endwise toward each other.
