DAVID MCGENNISS, OF LEAKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, .ASSIGNOR, BY MESNE ASSIGNMENTS, TO THE CAROLINA COTTON it IVOOLEN MILLS C0., OF SPRAY, NORTH CAROLINA, A CORIORATION OF NORTH CAROLINA.
NETHERGARJIENT.
Application led June i4, 1919.
fo @ZZ whom t may concern Be it known that I, DAVID McGnNNiss, a citizen of the United States, residing at Leaksville, in the county of Rockingham and State of North Carolina, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Nethergarments, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in nether garments.
In childrens drawers and in union suits of the drop seat type, the principal strain occurs at the side plackets of the garment, the legs of the garment being in time torn or ripped in a downward direction at the outer sides from the lower ends of the plackets. It is, therefore, one object of the present invention to provide a nether garment of this type with a novel form of hem for the placket which hem will be of a construction to efi'ectually prevent enlargement of the placket through tearing and will consequently reinforce the garment at the plackets so as to prevent the eventual tearing of the legs of the garment at the points above referred to. f
Ordinarily, undershirts are manufactured with a plain shoulder seam and as a result there is nothing provided to prevent stretching of the shoulder of such a garment so that the lower ends of the sleeves of the shirt are liable to work down below the sleeves of the outer garments and become exposed to view, likewise causing discomfiture to the wearer. It is therefore, also an object of the present invention to adapt the same to the shoulder seam'of an undershirt so as to efectually reinforce this portion of the garment and prevent stretching of the same.
Another object of the invention isto provide means whereby garments of the two types mentioned may be reinforced in the respects referred to so as to prevent stretching and tearing, the reinforcement being capable of application to or embodiment in the garment by a single operation of stitching so that so far as labor is concerned no more expense will be involved than in the stitching of a plain seam.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrat- Speccation of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 29, @$21.
Serial No. 304,229.
' shirt equipped with the reinforcement of the present invention.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary sectional perspective view illustrating in detail the reinforcement of the shoulder seam of the shirt shown in Fig. 4.
Fig. 6 is a view similar to Fig. 5 but illustrating the reinforcement separated from the garment.
Fig. 7 is a view looking at the inner side of the shoulder portion of the garment.
Fig. 8 is a perspective view illustrating the application of the invention to a drop seat union suit.
In that embodiment of the invention shown in Figs. l, 2 and 3 of the drawings, the numeral l indicates in general a pair of childrens drawers and the numeral 2 indicates the side plackets thereof. 'Urdinarily, these plackets are provided at their margins with an ordinary turned over hem which, as before stated, soon breaks through due to the strains imposed Qn this portion of the garment, with the result that the legs of the garment become torn alon one or more lines extending from the plac (ets. In carrying out the present invention, the margin of each placket is formed with a simple lhem 3 and disposed over this hem at the outer side of the garment is a length of tape l extending continuously around the margin of the placket. This tape i is non-elastic and is'of a quality which will prove durable and which cannot be readily worn or broken through. The garment is then cross stitched along the margin of the placket, as indicated by the numeral 5, the stitches passing through the hem B and through the marginal portions of the tape 4, as clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. In this manner the placlets of the garment are effectually reinforced and the same is true of the pll ekets in the drop seat union suit shown in Fig. S of the drawings.
ln the embodiment of the invention shown in Figs. 4 to 7 inclusive, the numeral 6 indi- Cates an undershirt, 7 the sleeves thereof, S.
the shoulders, and 9 the shoulder seams. Ordinarily, these seams are of simple forni and as before stated there is nothing to prevent stretching of the shoulders of the garments so that the lower ends of the sleeves will ride down belon7 the lower ends of the sleeves of the outer garment or garments. In order to prevent this and also to reinforce this portion of the garment, each ginal portions of the tape and through the said hems 10.
F rom the foregoing it will be observed that in both instances the garment is reinforced by a non-elastic tape which is disposed over and united to a hem so that While the material of the garment itself may be relatively elastic and quite readily unraveled, it is effectually prevented from stretch ing or unraveling at the point of reinforcenient.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
A garment having` aplacket provided at its margin with a hem formed by folding over the said margin and uniting the saine to the garment proper continuously along the placket, a strip of non-elastic material disposed over the hem, and'stitchin'g uniting the strip to the said garment and hem along the margins of the strip and along the fold Rproviding the hem and adjacent thc attached edge of the hem. i
