SAMUEL ENGEL, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN SAFETY-POCKETS.
S, eciication forming part of Letters Patent No. 136,983, dated March 18 1873.
section taken throughthe spring longitudinal-- ly at y,Fi g. 1. Fig. 4 shows one of the springs. Fig. 5 shows one of the springs with an elastic band attached thereto in the position in which it is when secured to 'the pocket, and' Fig. 6 representsthe same spring with the band connected thereto detached from the pocket.
The object of my invention is to construct a pocket designed for various articles of dress,
so that the:l contents will not he liable to escape therefrom even though the pocket he inverted, and so that pickpockets cannot readily remove such contents; it consists in the Vuse of two pieces of whaebone or other suitable elastic material, secured to the opposite sides ot' the pocket in such manner as will have a tendency to hold the two sides of the pocket together, at the same time allowing access to the pocket by the owner with reasonable facility. v
In the drawing, A represents an ordinary pocket with my devices attached, one of the springs a not being fully inserted. On each side of this pocket I sew a strip of tape, d, or other material, forming receptacles for the springs a b, which springs may be made ot' whalebone or other elastic material. One of these springs I insert into the receptacle with'- out any laddition thereto; to the other may be attached an elastic band, c, the spring and band being then inserted intothe other receptacle, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. When inserted the openings are to be closed, and the ends of the springs are to be held together by means ofstitchin g or otherwise. The tendency of the band c is to draw the ends ofthe spring I) together, throwing the central portion against v 'the other spring a, keeping the two springs closely together, except when forcibly separated. In Figs. 2 and 3 the dark line represents the elastic band c.
I prefer to place the spring b and its band c on the inside ofthe pocket, the action of the spring-band tending to conform the springs to the form of the person.
In pockets made ot'heavy material two bands, o, one on top of the other, may he used.
` This device may be applied to pockets in wearin g apparel of bot-h gentlemen and ladies.
What I claim as new is as follows:
The safety-pocket herein described, consisting of the pocket A, springs t b, secondary spring c, all constructed and arranged to operate substantially as and for the purposes specified. Y Y
