To all whom it may 00mm.-
Be it known that I, HATTIE M. PFALTZ- GRAFF, a citizen of the United States, residing in Atlantic City, countyv of Atlantic,
, State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements .in Abdominal upports, of which the following; isa specification. f 1 7 "My invention relates to abdominal belts or supports utilizable for any'of th'e known purposes to which such structures have My invention resides in an abdominal belt or support having "the characteristics hereinafter described and claimedpwhich is particularly eflective,"comfortable to the wearerand of improved adaptability because ofthe relations of'the structural parts and the 'mode of applying "tension thereto for effecting pressures upon the abdomen or any desired organ or part.
For an illustration of one of the various forms my invention may'take reference is to be had to the accompanying 'drawings', in
which i Fig. 1 isa front elevationalview of an. abdominal support, embodying my inven- 'tion. i
Fig. 2 'is a rear elevational view] of the same.

F1 13 l :1 1* ig a is a slde elevatlonal vlew.
Referring tothe drawings B- is a main belt, preferably" of elastic or semi-elastic, knitted, porous or equivalent fabric, lying next to the body of the wearer and extending continuously across theabdomen around the sides to the back and terminating-vin'the vertically extending strips a and b,preferably of inelastic cloth or equivalent fabric.
To the strip a is stitched the strip 0,; leaving between the stripsa and 0 several ga s or unstitched parts'd. There is stitched to the strip 1) upon its'innerf face the flap "e. Through the aforesaid g'apsd between strips a and c extend the'straps'f, gland f h preferably of inelastic webbing, secured at one end to the vertically extending stripe preferf ably of inelastic cloth. and preferably 'dis- 4 posed at or adjacent the hip'of the'wearer;
The straps f, g and h attheir otherends are attached'to the aforesaid Strip 6 and oven lying the flap 6. fsecured a t one end to the' strip c are the straps j, hand Z prefe r ably' of'inelastic webbing, and attheirbpposite ends is secured the, vertically extending strip mslmllar to and 'disposed symmetrirally with respect'to the strip z'at the oppos te side of the wearer. The straps fand j extend through a buckle o-r Clasp w and are adaptedfto be held 'firmly to each, other thereby.'- Similarly, the other, pairs of straps g, is :and h, Z are" passed through'an'd are adapted to be held to each'otherf'by-the buckles or 'clasps 0 and p.
Adjacentthei'fmntd e of the strips}? and m is disposed a row of eyelets 9 through which extend strapping means or straps a",
preferably inelastic. The set of' straps-r coacting with the strip '5 i-s'secured 'at one end to theshort straps, preferably-of inei with the strip m are secured at one end'to the strap 25, a so preferably of inelastic web- 'bing,--the buckle a being secured tothe strap 8 and the strap t extending through the buckle'u and adapted, when the latter Strap has been drawn taut, to hold 'stra'p'sis' and't, forming a third belt'in their adjusted p0- lastic webbing, and the straps r cooperating p sition. The other ends of the straps a coo to the vertical edge of the strip '10, preferably of 'inelastic'fab'ric, whichin turn is secured at its? edge-"m1 to the right-ends, as viewed Fig. 1, of thecrossed membersy and z of preferably inelastic webbing, the
left end-s of these members 3 and '2 being secured at a to the preferably inelastic strip Z to which at its edge 0 there are secured the ends of the straps r cooperating with the strip v The main belt B'has hip extensions-H integral therewith and extending below the acting with he side'strip i are vsecured atfi hip overthe thighsQformiHg in-efl'ect thigh strap integral with the seamless main belt 'yThe' meinbersy and ,2 constitute a eeond and inelastic belt member, preferably entirely free'from themain belt B, exeept for the straps 1'. f In the lower'e cured r't' rfh'le he f ib t t e l k e ien H slightly to the rear of the hips of thewearer.
The aforementioned pieces e are secured to the inelastic belt 11 z by laces 3' extending 5 through the eyelets d and the eyeletsin the members 3 and z.
As shown in Fig. 1, the h ip extensions l l extend around to the front of "the wearer where, however, they are recessed at 70?, lat
