ROBERT I1. CAMPBELL, OF HAGERSTOWN,MARYLAND, ASSIGNOB TO THE HAGEBSTOWN SHOE & LEGGING- COMPANY, OF HAGERSTOWN,
MARYLAND.
MARYLAND, A CORPORATION OF LEGGING.
To all evil am it may concern:
Be it known that I, Roxanna: L. CAMPBELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hagerstown, in the county of Washington and State of Maryland, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Leggings, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to leggings of the general character set forth in myapplication for patent filed April 24, 1913, Serial No. 763,409 (now Patent No. 1,097,582, dated May 19, 1914). In the invention disclosed in that case a chafe is shown which in conjunction with a complementary part on the body of the legging makes it possible to adjust the straps with relation to the chafe, and then use the chafe as a ready means for fastening the legging about a wearers leg and easily removing it, without altering the adjustment of the straps on the chafe, so that the legging may be quickly applied and removed by the wearer.
In the ease referred to, it is contemplated using a single strap chafe and also a many strap chafe. This present invention relates to a single strap chafe, and to that extent the present application is a continuation in part of the application referred to.
The invention herein consists of a leg 'ing or puttee having a strap fixedly applied to it at one end and adapted to be wound about the legging to close it about a wearers leg, and having its end adjusted in a chafe to the dimensions of the wearers leg, said chafe having means, such as a series of eyeleted holes, for cooperation with any suitable hook on the body of the legging so that the previously adjusted strap may be quickly fastened about the legging when on the wearer and as quickly unfastened without affecting the adjustment of the strap end with relation to the chafe, all as I will proceed now to explain and finally claim.
In the accompanying drawings illustrating the invention, in the several figures of which like parts are similarly deslgnated, Figure 1 is an elevation of one form of legging or puttee showing the strap adjusted on the chafe but with its adjusted end turned back so as to more fully expose the underlying chafe. Fig. 2 is a similar view, showing the chafe disengaged and turned back. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the chafe detached.
Patented Nov. 20, 1917.
leg, and having its free end 3 supplied with eyelet holes or eyelets 4. for cooperation with a buckle or other securing device 5 so that the buckle may be adjusted on the free end of the strap to a point that will enable the strap to be properly fastened about the legging or puttee when on the wearer. This buckle or other strap-attaching medium is permanently applied to a piece of leather or other material 6, as by means of a rivet 7 securing the ends of the piece 6 looped about some portion of the fastening device 5, as for instance, the tongue bar of a tongue buckle, as shown in the drawings. The piece 6 is supplied with two more or less holes, eyes, or eyeleted openings 8, which are adapted to be engaged by the pivoted hook 9 of a spring shoe fastening device 10, which is applied to the body of the legging. The parts 5, 6, 7 and 8 constitute what is herein referred to as the chafe.
It will be understood that any suitable means or fastening medium may be applied to the chafe and the body of the legging or puttee in place of the eyelets 8 and hook 9, although the construction shown is advantageous owing to its facility of operation and its durability.
The broader aspect of the invention comprehends a chafe having at one end means coiiperating with complemental means on the body of the legging or puttee for quickly attaching and detaching a strap, and also having means at its other end by which the legging and strap may be so adjusted with relation to one another that the strap will be of the proper effective length to go around the wearers leg when the legging or puttee is placed thereon, the operations of securing the strap about the legging or puttee being quickly effected without altering the relative adjustment of the chafe on the strap, and the specific invention herein is such a chafe adapted for use on a single strap as shown.
What I claim is 1. A legging, having a single strap fixed at one end to the lower portion of one side of the legging and adapted to be wound up wardly about the legging, a hook applied at or near the upper end of the other side of the legging, and a quick-acting chafe having at one end means for adjustably engaging the free end of the strap so as to obtain any desired effective length of strap to prop erly engage the wearers leg and having at its other end holes for engaging the hook, the thus adjusted strap adapted to be quickly fastened and unfastened by means of said holes and hook without altering the adjustment of the chafe on the strap, thereby permitting the legging to be opened wide for putting it on and taking it off.
2. A legging, having a strap fixed at one end to the lower portion of one side of the legging and adapted to be wound upwardly about the legging, a chafe having a strapengaging buckle adjustable upon the upper free end of the strap so as to obtain the proper effective length of strap to fit the wearers leg, said ehafe also having a legging-engaging part, and means on the upper portion of the other side of the legging for cooperation with the leggingengaging part of the chafe to admit of the quick attachnient of the strap about the legging and its release without altering the adjustment of the ehafe on the strap or disconnectingthe chafe from the strap,
3. A legging, having a single strap fixed at one end to the lower part of one side of the legging and adapted to be Wound about the legging upwardly toward its upper end,
a chafe having a buckle fixed to one end and also having'one orniore eyleted holes at the other end, the ehafe being adjustable on the free end of the strap so as to fix the effective length of the strap with relation to the size of the wearers leg, and a hook fixed on the legging on the side opposite that to which the strap is fixed, the eyeleted end of the ehafe being adapted to be quickly engaged Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents,
