SKIRT-BELTING.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 4., 1919.

Application filed April 11, 1918. Serial No. 227,836.

Be it known that I, MORTIMER L. BA'soH, acitizen of the United States of America, anda resident of Brooklyn, Kings county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Skirt- Belting, of which the following is-a specification, reference being had to the accompany'ing drawings, forming a part thereof.

My invention relates to improvements in skirt belting and its object is to provide an improved inexpensive material to be aflix'ed to the inside of the waist band of a skirt to maintain the shape thereof and to keep it from slipping.

Another object is to make such material of washable character and also to provide belts of the same material.

' describe the same in the following specification, and will then point out the novel features thereof in appended claims.

Referring to the drawings: Figure '1 is a plan view of a strip of my improved belting with some of it rolled up. Fig. 2 is a perspective view, partly in section, of a portion of the belting. 30

Fig. 3 is a horizontal section of a portion of the same structure.

Fig. 4: is a perspective View of the upper part of .a skirt with its waist band provided with an inner belt of this improved construction. I

Fig. 5 is an elevation on a larger scale, and Fig. 6 a horizontal section of a portion of skirt belting of a modified construction which also embodies this invention. v

Fig. 7 is a perspective view corresponding to Fig. 4:, with the inner belt at the waistband of the skirt of a further modified form of construction.

Fig. 8 is a perspective view partly in section of an end portion of the form of the invention which is shown in Fig. 7.

Like characters of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures.

Referring first to Figs. 1-6, 10 designates a piece of belting which comprises a strip of textile material such as muslin forming an outer part 11 with its edges folded over and overlapping as at12. At spaced intervals on the backing thus formed are pieces 13 of non-elastic ribbed rubber with the ribs disposed transversely on the strip. 14 designates binding of suitable textile material such as braid on the vertical edges of the pieces 13 and. stitched through these pieces and the backing described. Similar of belting are reinforced as at 16 and provided with fastenin devices 17 The belting as thus applie becomes a permanent part of the skirt. The vertically disposed ribs of the pieces 13 stiffen the waistband and keep it from wrinkling. l/Vhen worn they grip the garment inside of the skirt and prevent the skirt from slipping.

The materials of which this belting is constructed are-washable and do not deteriorate from contact with soap and water.

When a greater stiffening effect is desired, stays 18 may be placed back of each of the pieces 13 and afiixed to the backing and to the longitudinal binding as at 19 as shown in Figs. 5 and 6.

The belting shown in Figs. 7 and 8 comprises a continuous strip 30 of non-elastic transversely ribbed rubber with tape binding 31 over its longitudinaledges. Its ends are reinforced as at 32 and if desired the binding 31 is continued over the ends of the strip 30 and the reinforcement. Fastening devices are secured to the reinforced ends of the belting.

This is applied to the skirt 20 in the manner already described and is used in the same way.

The material of the pieces l3 and of the strip 30 is particularlywell adapted for the use to which I have applied it. In the forms shown and described the inner surface of this material is constructed with vertical ribs but it is obvious that other forms may be used within the spirit and scope of this invention if the inner part of this material is roughened to form a grip- I ping surface and "I intend no limitations other than those imposed by the appended claims.

What I claim is:

'1. A skirt belting comprising a strip of non-elastic textile material forming a backing, pieces of non-elastic rubber material having a roughened inner gripping surface, binding afiixed to the vertical edges of said pieces and stitched to the backing and binding over and affixed to the longitudinal edges of the backing and over the upper and lower edges of said pieces and the pieces forming gripping surfaces, binding aflixed to the edges of said pieces which are parallel with said ribs, and stitched to the binding, and binding over and affixed to the longitudinal edges of the backing and over the edges of said pieces Which are normal to said ribs and affixed to the binding on the other edges of said pieces.

3. Skirt belting comprising a strip of non-elastic textile material forming abacking, pieces of non-elastic rubber material having inwardly projecting transverse ribs forming gripping surfaces, binding affixed to the vertical edges of said pieces and stitched to the backing, binding over and affixed to the longitudinal edges of the backing and over the upper and lower edges of said pieces and the binding affixed to the vertical edges thereof, and vertical stays between said pieces and the backing with their ends fastened to the longitudinal bindings.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 10th day of April, 1918.

MORTIMER L. BASCH.
