INVENTOR LLOPOLD JUfiG/[LEW/CZ ATTORNEYS lTED STATES LEOPOLD JURGIELEWIGZ, OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
SAFETY-WATCH-POCKET PROTECTOR.

Application filed May 15, 1919.
To all to 7mm it may concern Be it known that I, LEoroLD Jonsmne WIOZ, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented a new and Improved Safety- W atch-Pocket Protector, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to pocket protectors, that is, to devices used in connection with pockets upon garments for the purpose of promoting the safety of the contents of the pockets.
My device is suitable for use in connection with garments in which the pockets are either riveted or sewed.
Reference is made to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which like characters of reference indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Figure 1 is a plan view of a sheet metal member forming a part of my device.
Fig. 2 is a plan view showing how the sheet metal member appearing in Fig. 1 is closed upon a roll of cloth and as incorporated in my device.
Fig. 3 is a section showing how my device is used upon a riveted garment and is taken upon the line 83 Fig. 5, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows.
Fig. 4 is a section on the line 44 of Fig. 2, looking in the direction indicated by the arrows.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary front elevation showing a riveted garment to which my device is applied.
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary elevation showing a sewed garment upon which my device is employed.
Fig. 7 is a plan view of the cloth member used in the construction of the member shown in Fig. 2. y y
The metal strip 7 is provided with laterally extending: end portions 8, the entire strip with its extending portions having the general form of the letter I and being provided with a pair of rivet holes 9.
A strip 10 made of felt is engaged by the strip 7, the end portions 8 of the latter being bent partially around the adjacent front portions of the felt strip 10 as indicated more particularly in Fig. 2.
The device shown in Fig. 2 I designate as the protector. Rivets are shown at 11 and may be used for securing the pocket 13 upon Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 31, 1921.
Serial no. 297,320.
the garment 12 as shown in Fig. 5. The pocket is provided with stitching 14 in the usual or any desired manner. The rotector is placed in the upper portion of the pocket, the rivets 11 being passed through the holes 9 of the strip 7 and through the ad acent portion of the felt strip 10. The rivets are also passed through the garment 12 and headed up as indicated in Fig. 3. The upper portion of the material of the pocket is lapped over the protector as indicated in Fig. 3. The pocket compartment is simply a space 12 between the pocket 13 and the garment.
In the form shown in Fig. 6 the pocket is shown at 15, the protector at 16, and a watch n the pocket appears at 17. The protector s in this instance held in position by sewing alone. Otherwise, the structure is the same in Fig. 6 as in Fig. 5.
In Fig. 7 I show at 10 the form of the felt strip which after being rolled up appears at 10 in Fig. 2. The felt strip 10 is cut away at the ends at 10 so as to avoid undue thickness of the material and thus to countersink the tongues 8. After the cloth member is rolled up it is laid upon the flat metal member shown in Fig. land thus clamped at both ends. Then, when the metallic member is attached to the watch pockets of overalls, pants, or vests, the metallic member serves to keep the ends of the pockets extended so that the ridge of cloth acts as a buffer to prevent the watch, money, or other contents ofthe pocket from slipping out. It not only tends to prevent theft but also to prevent the contents from dropping to the ground in the event that the person stoops or lies down.
The strip 7 by being straight tends to space the ends of the pocket at a definite distance from each other. In order for aperson to insert his fingers in the pocket, it is, of course, necessary to cause these ends of the pockets to approach each other to a slight extent. In other words, it is necessary to cause the strip 7 to bend like a bow in order that the lingers may be inserted. The operator can thus readily insert his fingers into the pocket. If however, a stranger should attempt to insert his fingers into the wearers pocket. the wearers attention will be attracted owing to the fact that the stranger must bend the strip 7 or at least cause it to bow slightly. Thus, while the contents of the pocket are readily accessible to the wearer he is safeguarded as against the work of a pickpccket.
I do not limit myself to the precise mechanism shown as variations may be made therein without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is as follows:
1. A device of the character described, comprising a spring strip having laterally projecting members, and a piece of fabric folded upon the strip andupon which piece of fabric the lateral members of the strip are bent to secure it to said strip.
2. A device of the character described comprising a spring strip having lateral members at its ends, and provided with a hole at each end and a piece of fabric folded upon the strip and upon which piece of fabric the lateral members of the strip are bent to secure it to said strip, the ends of the fabric projecting beyond the ends of the strip.
3. A device of the character described, consisting of a spring strip having lateral members at its ends and provided with a hole at each end, and a piece of fabric cut away at its ends to form reduced end portions, the fabric being folded upon the strip and upon which piece of fabric the lateral members of the strip are bent to secure it to said strip.
