To all to hom'it may concern:
Be it'lrnown that. L'Jnssn R. S'MiTI-I, a citizen of the United States, residing at Greenfield, in the countyof Greene and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment Supporters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawin'gs. l
This invention relates to certain improve ments in garment supporters, and has relation more particularly to a novel and e'ffi cient resilient attaching loop which is ca"- pable of general application.
' An important object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which attachment to, or removal from, the sup portproper, and which resiliency opposes separation of thegarment secured to the attaching loop and the'support proper, but
which may not be removed from the support proper by any strain placed thereon by the garment attached thereto.
A further object of the invention is to provide a resilient attaching loop. provided at its upper end with arcuately curved oppositely directed arms which are adapted to extend through and co-act with the edges of an opening formed in a loop or pocket of the support proper, whereby downwardly exerted force upon the loop brings into play resilient resistance of the arms at the sides of the opening thereby resiliently resisting such downward force.
A still further object is to provide an attaching loop of this character, the upper ends of the arms of which are provided with angular portionspreventing removal of the attaching loop by force exerted at the attaching portion thereof.
,'Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent throughout the course of the following description:
In the accompanying drawings, wherein enge characters designate like parts through- 011 Figure 1 is a side elevation partly in sectlon of a garment supporter constructed in accordance with my invention, showing in dotted lines the position ofthe attaching loop when strain is applied thereto, and
F 1g. 2 1s a similar view ofa slightly modified form of my invention. I
As disclosed in the accompanying drawings, S designates a strap included in my improved garment support which is preferably non-flexible and which has its lower portion returned upon itself as at 1' to form a loop or pocket 2, and the bend or under portion o'fthe loop isprovided with a relnforcing strip 4 of leather, canvas or other DEAN oonsn, 0F
siiita'blematerial, and said bent or outer portion is likewise provided with an opening reinforced preferably by a metallic ferrule or eyelet 6;
An attaching loop 7 is provided having the lower end thereof shaped to conform to the article to which it is attached, being shown in the preferred form of my inventionasadapted for. attachment to abutton, and inthe modified form, as provided with a restricted V- haped portion 9 adapted to receive/therein a fold of cloth and hold the same by friction. The side arms 10 of the attaching loop preferably diverge somewhat upwardly and are provided at their upper ends with spring loops 11, terminating in substantially horizontal portions which have their ends extending upwardly and diverging, as indicated at 13. These ends or arms 13 are preferably arcuately curved and are provided upon their extremities. with returned hook portions upon the under-surface thereof for a purpose'presently to appear, the curvature of the arms having the concavity thereof downwardly directed.
These arms extend through the reinforced opening 5 and may be positioned therein by placing the end of one arm in the opening from their engagement in the reinforced opening by reason of the fact that the extremities 14: thereof engage the sides of the openings and prevent such removal. It will be obvious that the attaching loop and arms being formed of resilient material, such as spring wire, any downward force exerted upon the attaching loop will be resiliently opposed by the arms 13, and by the fact that these arms being divergent necessitates the deformation of the attaching loop 7 to permit their passage through the reinforced opening 5 by such direct pull. The loops 11 being formed at the upper ends of the side arms 10 of the attaching loop permit of a larger degree of deformation at this point without materially altering the formation of the loop in general. In fact the lower portion of the loop, the side arms 10 and attaching portion 8 may, ifpreferred, be formed in such a manner that they are set against the deformation. It will be obvious that if it is desired for any reason, to remove the attaching loop from the loop or pocket 2, this may readily'be done by a slight deformation of the arms to permit the ends thereof to pass through the open lngs It will further be obvious that my device by reason of its simplicity and general efficiency and use, and ease of which it may be assembled and manufactured, is particularly adapted for the use for which it is in tended, and it will likewise be obvious that the construction hereinbefore set forth is capable of some change without departing from the spirit of my invention. I, accordingly, do not limit myself to the specific structure set forth, except as so limited by the sub-joined claims.
lVhat I claim is:
1. The combination with a supporting strap embodying a loop, said loop having an opening formed therein, of an attaching member embodying arms extending through the opening of the loop and normally disposed within the loop, said arms resiliently resisting their withdrawal through said opening by a pull on said member and returning to their normal position within said loop when said pull is discontinued.
2. The combination with a supporting strap embodying a loop, said loop having an opening formed therein, of an attaching member embodying arms extending through the opening of said loop and diverging within the loop, said arms resiliently resisting their withdrawal through said opening by a pull on said member and automatically returning to a position within said loop when the pull is discontinued.
3. The combination with a supporting strap embodying a loop, said loop having an opening formed therein, of an attaching member embodying arcuately curved arms slidably extending through the opening of said loop, said arms resiliently resisting their withdrawal through said opening by a pull on said member and returning to their normal position upon discontinuation of the pull.
4:. The combination with a supporting strap embodying a loop, said loop having an opening formed therein, of an attaching member embodying resilient arms extending through said opening and normally disposed within the loop and diverging from one another, whereby said arms resist a pull on said member tending to withdraw the arms through the opening of the loop and automatically return to their normal position upon discontinuation of the pull, the ends of said arms embodying hook portions engaging the sides of said openings to limit the movement of the arms therethrough.
In testimony whereof I hereunto atfix my signature.
JESSE B. SMITH.
