NE'r'rIE HURD, or cnrcneo, m o sq Z nosn-snrronrnn.
To allwhom it may concern; 7 Be it known that I, Nnr'rin M. 'Humx-a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and 'State' of Illinois, have invented new andjuseful; Im provements in HoseSupporters, of which the following isvafull, clear, and exact descri tion. q I i I yinvention relates to hose supporters, and particularly to; the kind employing straps secured .at their upper; ends to the waist-band -of the trousers of the wearer or to his belt, and provided at their lower ends with suitable clasps to which the socks are attached. Hose supporters of this kind have been made with transverse bands that surrounded the leg both below and above the knee, but these weremade wholly or partly of elastic and would bind and pinch the flesh, and would not automatically conform tothe play of the muscles either whenithe'fl wearer was sitting down or standing up, and had a tendency to'roll at the edges andcorrugate' and dent the flesh.
The objectsofmy invention are to enable these transverse bands. to' conform to the shape of the legs both above and below the knee without binding the muscles or pinching into the flesh or preventing thefree movement of .the'knee whether the. legis straight or bent and to retain the support ing straps in-their relative positions both inside and outside ofthe leg without causing discomfort. This I accomplish by the means hereinafter fully, described, and as, particularly pointed out'in the claims. In the drawings: r 1 Figure 1 shows the outlines of the lower part oflthe hulnan-bodyand leg and my improved supporter. attached thereto.- K
Fig. 2 is a-perspective view of. a portion of said supporter, drawn to a larger scale. Fig. 3 shows a fragment ofsaid supporter showing a modified construction which may be adopted, if desired. f I
Referring to the drawings, A and'B represent the two supporting'straps of my improved hose supporten These arefof a length extending from the waist to "below the knee, and aremade of elastic material and provided at their upper ends with adjusting loops a and with clasps of any suitable design for attaching the same to the buttons of the waist band or to a belt or to the ends of a Suspender in any suitable manner. Ordinary clasps c, d, are secured toloops at the-lower endsjof straps Ar -and B and-terminate opposite the portion of' the leg where the upper-,part ofethe'sock usually ends. 'One of these straps extends:
down from thehip along the out'sid'e' ofthe N T D STATES r v Specification of Letters iatent. Patented A -;;12,*1921' f 7 Application filed November 15,1918, Serial No.:262,978. Renewed mt- 4,1920. Serial No: 356,122.?
le and the other StI'iLPxGXtGIlClS from a" i above, the-knee said straps are-connected of non-elastic material, which is hereinafter referred to as the over-knee bandC, and just below thestrapsare" connected by a point approximately in front of the-hips:
bone, down nextjthe insideof the leg. Just- 3 V '65 by-a vertically adjustable-transverse band.
.70 l .to as the under-knee curved upward and what would-begits' rear shorter end ;5, when the bands surroundthe leg, extends beyond the outsidestr'apA and:
is bent upward, and has-a non-elasticstrap 6 sewed or otherwise secured'tolits .outer a little more than twice the length ofend' 5 and extends lateral-lyin an upwardly. 'direc-. tion from strap B for about half its length,"
and "then, extends downward at'aboutan angle of fifteen degrees, thus. describing an obtuse angle whose. vertex? points. upwards The" outer surface" of said end 7: is providedl 8 which is engaged by strap6 whenvtheband is .fastened.;a d
The: ,under-knee ba d near-itsextremities with a ,suitable bu'ckle l5 is'curvedidown-" ward between the. supportin'g straps and the length'ofithe'portion thereof between said I I straps, is; preferably; slightly-2 longerithan the portion of thel'up'per kneenband"be iw' tween the same. Therearend of this underlknee band, :or end thereof extending beyond 2 strap A, has a. non-elasticj st'rap 10secured to :its outer. surface that extendsbeyond; .the extremity ofthe-same?- -The opposite front end of. this lower-knee band extends beyond the innerfstrap a" distance correi sponding to. aboutl'threefourths thelength ofithe superposed end 7 of the upper'eknee band and curves upward rather sharply so 7 that when flattened, "as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings, it extends substantially'parallel to the portion of end 7 of said o pk band nearest supporting stra B v When the support ng-straps are i 7 attached at their upper ends to the means fromwhich it is designed they should be suspended, and
- .1. A hose'sup'p'orter comprising clasps '0, d, on their lower ends are attached to the opposite side of the upper ends of the sock, said bands are made to surround,
the leg both above and below the knee and their ends are then secured together; said ends do not tightly embrace the leg and both thefront and rear muscles of theleg,
above and below the knee, have free play,
and the said bands do not interfere with the wearer either when bending the knee or straightening out the leg or standing or sitting down.
supporting-straps to the over-knee band by means that will permit the over-knee'bandto' bev adjusted either up or down-thereon.
This I accomplish by means of button-holes 12 made in the said band andbuttons 13 sewed or otherwise secured to the straps, substantially as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. The supporting-straps, however,
may be either immovably. attached to the upperlknee band or adjustably attached thereto without departing from the spirit of my invention. V
7 What I cla1mv as new 1s porting-straps, devices secured to their 'upper ends for suspending the same'fromr the clothing, clasps on their lower ends for fastening the hose thereto, a "transverse over-knee band, a transverse under-knee band connecting said supporting straps, and
separable means for adjustably connecting together the ends ofsaid bands extending beyond said straps; said over-knee band'being curved upward between said straps.
2. A hose supporter comprising two sup porting-straps, devices secured to their upper ends for suspending thesame from the clothing, clasps on their lower ends for fastening the hose" thereto, a transverse K over-knee band, a. transverse under-knee band connecting said supporting straps, and separable; means for ad'ustably connecting together the ends of sald bands'extending beyond'said straps; said over-knee band he ingi'curved upward between said straps, and
said under-kneeband being curved down- 1 Y ward between said straps.
a '3. A hose supporter comprising two supporting-straps, devices secured to their. upper ends for suspending the samefrom the clothing, clasps on their lower ends for fastening the hose thereto, a transverse over 1 knee band, a transverse under-knee band connecting said supporting-straps, and separable means for adjustably connecting to gether the ends of said band extending beyond said straps, said under knee band being curved downward between said' straps and having one end extending beyond the-adj acent strap and curved upward.

4. A hose supporter comprising two =sup-- porting-straps, devices secured to their upper ends for suspending the same from the clothing, clasps on their lower ends for fastening the hose thereto, a transverse over-' knee band, a transverse under-knee band connecting said supporting-straps,and-sepa rable means for adjustably connecting together the ends 'ofjsaid band extending beyond said straps; said over-kneebandbeing curvedupward and having one end approximately twice as long as the other end and describing, substantially, an obtuse angle the upwardly pointed vertex of' which is about midwayits length 'and' said underknee band being curveddownward between said straps and having-its end below the said 1 bent-end of the over-knee band extending beyondthe adjacent strap curved upward; v 5. A hose supporter comprising two supporting straps, devices secured to, theirv upper ends for suspending the same from the clothing, clasps on their lower ends for fastening the hose thereto, a transverse-overknee band, a transverse under-knee band connecting said supporting-straps,and separable means for adjustably connecting together the ends of said band extending 'beyond said straps; said over-knee band being curved upward between said straps and having its ends extend beyond the adjacent f strap twice the distance its opposite end extends beyond the opposite strap and describing substantially an obtuse angle the upwardly pointed vertex of which is about 5 midway its length, and said under-knee" band having its end belowthe angle shaped end of the over-knee band extend beyond said strap a distance'lessthansaid angle' shaped end and curvedupward, and between i said straps being curved downward In witness whereof I have hereunto set my handthis 26th day of October, 1918;
