LAGING-FASTENING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed March 26, 1917. Serial No. 157,577.
' T all who-m it may concern:
Be it known that MICHAEL HoLRoYD SMITH, a subject of the Kingof Great Britain andlreland, residing at Ashley road, Qrouch Hill, London, England, has invented improvements in Lacing-Fastenings, of
which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to remedy the many defects and inconveniences consequent upon the use of eyelets as commonly used for the lacing of corsets and other articles of wearing apparel, and to facilitate the lacing of the garment and its adjustment to the figure, and to add to the ease and comfort of the wearer. Y
Instead of an eyelet, a wire loop or eye is employed somewhat similar in appearance to the eye used with a hook for dress fastenings but differing therefrom in this respect j V v and attached direct to the body or main fabthat whereas the ordinary eye is stitched, riveted or clenched to the fabric, theyare according to this invention formed and attached in or on to the garment in the following manner] I I i Reference is made to the accompanying staples of different lengths. Figs. II to V show methods of inserting and securing them to the fabric.
Wire is bent into the form of staples, they may be of different lengths as shown at a, b, and 0 Fig I. A strip of fabric D Fig. II
' (for brevity hereinafter called a tape) has a series of holes 7 punched or punctured along its center line corresponding to the prongs of the staples and the spaces they are desired to be apart. The prongs of the staples are then inserted through" the holes in the tape and the ends are bent inward until they meet forming a half moon as shown in Fig. 11 and at a; in Figs. III, IV and V.
When longer staples b are used then the bent over ends or prongs overlap as shown at y Figs. III, IV and V. When still longer staples c are used then the'overlapping prongs extend beyond the width of the eye as shown at z in Figs. III, IV and The Figure I shows wire.
tips in of these projecting ends are further bent soas to bring them into line with the bight of the tape when it is folded, as shown in Figs. IV and V.
The crown of each staple forms an eye outside the folded tape and the bent over prongs form a base around which the tape is folded. The folded tape is then sewn to- Patented Dec. 13. 921.
gether with a line of stitching close to the I base of the half moon thus keeping the eye in position, it cannot be pulled out because of the fold of the tape embracing the base and it cannot be pushed in because of stitching at the back.
. A length oftape thus provided with eyes or loops can easily be stitched into the edge of a corset, dress, bandage, gaiter or other article where it may be required. v In some cases the staples can be inserted ric of the garment;'for:examp-l e to the folds of a waterproof boot.
For, the insertion and fixing of the staples in the tapes special hand tools, jigs and machines can be employed.
Claims. 1. Lacing fastenings embodying therein fabricturned upon itself and having a pluof the fabric, and a sequence of staples, hav ing prongs passed throughthe holes of each pair, and bent toward each other, whereby said prongs-engage the fabric betweenithe' other, whereby'said prongs engage the fabric between the holes ofeach palr. v
