UNITED STATES 1,504,866 PATENT OFFICE.
TILLMAN CABIN, F ELKINS PARK, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO PIONEER SUS- PENDER COMPANY, A CORPORATION OF PENNSYLVANIA.
GARTEB.
Application filed November 3, 1922. Serial No. 598,722.
To all whom it may concern...
Be it known that I, TILLMAN CAHN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Elkins Park, in the county of Montgomery,
State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Garter, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in garters. The object is to provide a construction that will maintain the pad or connecting element flat and free from distortion, and at the same time preserve the feature that all metal parts are protected from contact with the leg, as required in devices of this character.
Referring to the drawings which illustrate, merely by way of example, a suitable embodiment of the invention;
Fig. 1 is an elevation of a garter in the unclasped or open position.
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary view showing the cast-oif elements in engagement.
Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3, 3, of Fig. 1, only on an enlarged scale.
Similar numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The garter shown in the drawings and to which this invention is especially applicable, is of the wide web or wide leg band class. 30 This wide web construction has led to a change in the shape of the pad, which, instead of being horizontally wide and ver tically narrow, as formerly, is now horizontally narrow and vertically wide. This construction, in order to maintain the rust- ].ess character, has had the cast-off stud 12 fastened to the pad at substantially its middle part. This is usually the weakest part of the pad since the turned, or folded-in portions of the several layers usually end near the inner line of stitching 7 and the result is a substantial distortion of the pad, after a short period of wear.
As stated in the preamble, the object of this invention is to maintain this pad fiat and free from distortion and at the same time preserve the feature that all metal parts are protected, etc. The leg band 5 is secured at one end to the connecting element or pad 6, between the plies thereof, by the two lines of stitching 7. At its other end the leg band is provided with the east-off element 8, in the usual way. At the lower edge of the connectingelement or pad 6, is secured the webbing 9 which carries the stocking-clasp 10 in supported relationship with the connecting element 6. At the opposite margin of element 6, from that to which the leg band 5 is secured, are secured the two free ends of the short folded strip of webbing or other flexible material, forming the tab 11. This tab 11, which is preferably formed of the same webbing as that from which the leg band is formed, is secured in the same way between the plies forming the element 6, by the two lines of stitching 7. The cast-off element 12 is secured to the element 6 by the stitching 13.
Now the important feature of this inven tion is the positioning of the element 12 and the tab 11, and the cooperation of these elements with the several folded plies of the element 6, and the stitching cooperating therewith.
In the formation of the connecting element or pad 6, it is usual to employ four layers or plies of fabric. The front layer or face 14: is usually of silk or other material of good quality matching or harmonizing with the fabric of the leg band 5. The back layer or face 15 is of cheaper material, but of substantial body. Layer 1 1 is provided with a lining 16 and layer 15 is provided with a lining 17. These linings are of stiffening materials such as crinoline and duck. Each layer or face and its lining are folded together, that is on over the other near the margin to form a hem. These two layers or faces, with their linings, are then secured together by the double line of stitching 7, after the leg band 5 and the tab 11 have been inserted as shown. The result is that when the element 12 is positioned as shown in the drawings, and secured by the stitching 13, this stitching 13 passes through two extensions each, of face layers 14: and 15 and their respective linings 16 and 17, and also through the two layers 18 and 19 of the material forming the tab 11.
The result of this construction is, that the stitching 13 passes, in the example shown, through 10 plies of material, includ ing the comparatively heavy webbing of tab 11. These ten plies are re-enforced by the double line of stitching 7, whichflank the stitching 13. In this way an extremely firm and substantial base is provided upon which to secure the element 12, so that the tendency to cause distortion of the connecting element or pad 6, by the pull on element 12,

is reduced to a minimum. At the same time having at its free end a cast-ofi element, a the tab 11 forms a shield or protection, pretab formed of folded webbing having its venting the metal of the cast-off elements two ends inserted between the said pairs of from touching the leg. folded layers at the other side margin of 5 What I claim 'is: J r
