reversible cuffs, and more specifically to re-l versible culf for a garment sleeve, which will. have all the outward appearances of being an ordinary soft cuff and yet will give double the wear of an ordinary soft cuil, be-
fore it is necessary to have it laundered. T he invention has among its objects the production of a cuil;l of the kind described, which is simple, convenient, durable and attractive, eiiicient and satisfactory. l
Another obj ect of my invention is to form such a cuff so that it will be properly reinforced and be extremely durable. Many other objects and advantages of the construction herein shown and described will be obvious to those skilled in the art from the disclosure herein given.
To this end my invention consists in the novel construction, arrangement and combination of parts herein shown and described, and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings, wherein like reference characters indicate like or corresponding parts,
Figure 1 is an elevation of my improved cuil with a portion broken away;
Fig. 2 is an elevation of the same with the cud' reversed and showing parts dia.- grammatically in section;
l Fig. 3 is a section taken substantially on line 3 3 of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 4 is a section taken substantially on line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
In the embodiment of my invention illustrated in the drawings, 1 represents the lower portion of a garment sleeve, for eX.- ample a shirt sleeve, having a bottom edge 2, Secured to the bottom of the sleeve, adjacent the edge 2, is my improved reversible cuff 3, the same being preferably made of a single sheet of material of the desired size and shape, folded centrally upon itself as indicated at 4, this folded edge forming the bottom or extreme edge of the cuff when in its extended position. The top and side meeting edges of the said folded sheet are preferably folded inwardly and secured together by stitching 5 and respectively, or )y any other suitable or equivalent means, said stitching being preferably extended entirely along the cuff edges and including the extremefolded over portion at edge 4, as indicated at G. A The stitching gives more body to the material, strengthening ity and thereby improving its wearing lqualities. y
lt may be mentioned that lprefer to only stitch one portion of the material in the'upper sectionv 8 to the sleeve portion, as indiiansn cated at 4" in Figs. 3 and 4, so that thev stitching does not show through when the lower` portion is turned inwardly, as will be further described. A strip of tape 10 or other suitable reinforcing and stiifening material may be, and is preferably, arranged on the inner side of the sleeve along the line of securement ofthe cuff and sleeve at the eX- treme edge Q, of the sleeve portion 1, which prevents the sleeve edge from raveling and reinforces the same.
It will be noted tliattthe side edges or ends of the cuilE portions preferably pro- `ect beyond the edge of the sleeve portion, as indicated at 13 in Figs. 1 and 2.
l/'Vhen it is desired to reverse the cuff, the lower portion 9y is turned about its line of fold at 12 and inwardly as indicated in Fig.. 4, thereby exposing the upper part 8, and allowing the nished edge 7 toshow, giving the appearance of an ordinary soft cuff edge. The side edges may besecured together in any desired manner, as for eX- ample by the usual cuit buttons (not shown), and I have shown button holes 11 representing suitable fastening means for cooperating with the buttons, the button holes being provided at the outer sides or edges ot both the top and bottom cuff portions. These button holes may be arranged as desired7 preferably so that they come into registry when the lower portion is superimposed on the outer side of the upper portion, as illustrated in the drawings, and it may be mentioned,r that desired these holes may be so arranged that the tree edge oi" the lower portion proiects slightly beyond the edge 7 oi? the portiong' as shown in F ig. 37 so that the edge 7 is kept` clean untii the enti is ready to be turned. rlhis is a mattei.' of preference, howeverE and l have shown the edge 4j pio `iecting a considerable portion beyond the edge Z in order to clearly bring out this point. ln actual practice, the edge portion will generally not projert as much as indicated7 as it is only necessaryv to bring it to a Ypoint where itwill substantially protect the inner edge. When the cuil is reversed as shown in el, it will be noted that the edge portion? is substantially tree of the sleeve portion l so that the same clearly appears a separable cuff, rather than as a sewed on or turned-over cuil'.
1l-laving thus described my invention,V it is obvious that various modiications may be made in the same without departing` from the spirit oil my invention; hence l'. do not wish to be understood as limiting myself to the exact form, construction, arrangement and combination ot parts herein shown and described, or uses mentioned.
kVlhat l claim. as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: l l. ln combination with a garment sleeve, a reversible cnil comprising a single sheet of material 'folded centrally upon itseltl to form a two-,ply part, the free edges being brought together and stitched through both oft said edges and secured only to the exterior ot the sleeve along a line spaced rearwardly of said free edges, said two-ply part being adapt-ed to be folded over either inwardly or outwardly of said sleeve along a line parallel to said central told to torno a cuffn partV attached at one edge to said sleeve and a fold-over cuff part.
2. In combination with a garment sleeve, a reversible cuff comprising a single sheet of material. folded upon itself centrally to form a two-ply part, the tree edges of said material lbeing inturned and being brought together into registry and stitched tliereat through .both edges and secured only to the l`or ot the sleeve along a line spaced rearwardly of said free edges, said two-ply part being adapted to be iiolded over either inwardly or outwardly of said sleeve along a iine parallel to said central told to form, a cati part attached at one edge to said sleeve and a told-over cuil' part, and a pair of buttonholes at each side edge of said cuil, one oit each or said pairs ott buttonholes being in the told-over part of: the culi and the other in the attached nart7 the huttonholes in 'fold-over part being at a greater disoin the iree edge of' said part than are the. buttoiiholes in the attached part from tl e attached edge thereof, all oi said ieles adapted to register and receive button, whereby the tree edge oli the 'fold-over part covers and projects beyond the attached part in either ot its reversed positions.
3. ln combination with a garment sleeve, a reversible cuff comprising a single sheet ot material folded centrally upon itself to form a two-ply part, the tree edges or" said material being being intnrned and being brought together into registry and stitched thereat through both of said edges. and secured only to the exterior of the sleeve along a line spaced rearwardlyV of said 'tree edgesa said two-ply .part being adapted to told over either inwardly or outwardly of: said sleeve along a line parallel to said central told Ato forni a cuil part attached at one edge t said sleeve and a told-over Acuff part, and apair of buttonholes at each side ot said culi', Ione of each of said pairs et huttonholes being in the foldpver part of the curi and he vother in the attached part, the buttonholes in said fold-over part being at a greater distance from the tree edge or said part than are the linttonholes 'a the attached part from the attached edge thereof. all ojtsaid buttonholes adapted to register and receivea single button whereby the free edge the i'oldover pai-t cove andproje i the attached part i. either'ot its reversed positions7 and a reinforcing strip secured to the bottom o't said sleeve at its juncture with said cuil.
ln testimony whereof, l have hereunto signed my naine in the presence oit two subscribi ng witnesses.
