Description
- E. F. KILGORE CUFF v Filed Feb, 12, 1925 NVENTOR Edward Kiigore Patented July 21, 1925.
UNITED STATES EDWARD LE, KILGORE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
CUFF.
Application filed. February 12, 1925. Serial No. 8,617.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, EDWARD-F. KILGORE, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of New York, in the county of New York and titate of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in hiffs, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to supplementary shirt cuffs and is designed. to be used preferably in connection with a shirt to which are attached the doubled-over soft cuffs in ordinary use.
lit is preferably intended that one or more pairs of supplementary cuffs be supplied with each shirt, said cuffs being preferably made of the same material as the shirt itself, or of plain white or other material if desired, and it is further intended that the supplementary cuff be used to prolong the wearing time of the shirt by maintaining the fresh and cleanly appearance of the shirt cuffs. It will, however, be understood, that my improved cuffs may be made and sold as a separate article of wearing apparel in the same manner as separate collars for shirts are now supplied to consumers.
The various objects of my invention will appear from the description which follows and from the drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a perspectiveview, showing my improved supplementary cuff in place, of a portion of a shirt sleeve having the usual soft cuff at the end thereof.
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of my improved cuff.
Fig. 3 is a vertical section of the same, showing particularly the pockets into which the usual cufi may be inserted.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary rear elevation of one form of blank from which my improved cuff may be made, and
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 1 combined with a sectional view showing my improved cuff in operative position.
In the practical embodiment of my invention, a blank as from which my cuff is made comprises the main visible member 12, the longitudinal terminal edge flap 13, the longitudinal inner edge flap 14, and the end flaps and 16. It will be understood that the edges of all of said flaps are turned in and seamed in the usual manner as at 17 to present finished edges on my improved cuff throughout.
To form the pockets 18 of my cuff, wherein the folded terminal edge 19 of the usual cuff 20 may be inserted,-the terminal edge flap 13 is folded about the fold line21, and the end flaps 15 and 16 are folded about the fold lines 22 and23 respectively. The flaps 13 and 15 are then joined together at the uncture of said flaps in the usual manner, as by means of a suitable seam, and the tlaps13 and 16 are similarly joined.
Button holes. as 24 and 25 are made in the flapslii and 16 at such points as will cause said button holes to be arranged in registr tion with the button holes of the shirt cuff 20 when my improved cuff is in place, similar button holes 26 being formed in the main cuff member 12, whereby my supplementary cuff may be secured in its operative position by the ordinary cuff buttons.
The pocket 27 of my cuff is formed by folding the flap 14 about the fold line '28, the ends of said flap being tucked underncath the flaps 15 and 16 preferably without being seamed thereto as will be clear from Fig. 2. Said pocket 27 is adapted to receive the end 29, of the loose folded-over member of the shirt cuff 20.
To put on my improved cuif, the shirt cuff 20 is opened, the terminal edge 19 thereof inserted into the pocket 18 while the flap 14 is in its unfolded position (Fig. 4) the side edges of said cuff 20 being inserted underneath the flaps 15 and 16 respectively. The button holes 24, 25 and 26 having thereby been arranged in their proper positions, the flap 14 may then be folded into the inside of the shirt cuff member 29 whereby said member is enclosed in the pocket 27 formed by folding over said flap 14. To remove the supplementary cuff, as for laundering, the flap 14 is first unfolded, whereupon the entire supplementary cuff may be readily removed.
It will be noted that the width of each of the flaps 13 and 14 is preferably less than half that of the member 12 so that in the folded positions of said flaps the adjacent edges of said flaps are preferably spaced apart to allow cutfbuttons to be readily passed through the button holes into place.
It will be seen that my device is self-maintained in place, the members forming the pocket 18 being held in place by the edges of the shirt cuff, and the flap 14 being pressed between the two folding members of the shirt cufi, and that my improved cuff entirely covers those parts of the shirt cuff which are exposed to view.
It will further be seen that my device presents the appearance of the usual cuff sufiiciently to practically defy detection when worn. lVhile it is preferred that my supplementary cuff be made out of a single thickness of material so that it Will not ap pear bulky and obstruct the coat sleeve which flap integral with and folded toward the back of said main portion, seams joining said end flaps to said edge flap for forming a pocket open along one edge thereof, and a second longitudinal edge liap integral with and foldable toward the back of said main portion for forming a pocket between said main portion and said second edge flap.
2. The combination with a folded shirt cuff having an inner and an outer member of a supplementary removable cuff comprising a main member adapted to cover the outer face of the outer member of said shirt cnfl, a longitudinal flap extending from said main member and folded about the edge of said shirt cui'l' on to the inner face of said cuff, a second flap extending from said main member, and adapted to be folded on to the inner face of the outer shirtcuff member, and end flaps enclosing the end edges of said shirt cuff.
3. In a supplementary cuff, a main member adapted to cover the outer face of a folded shirt cuff, pocket forming members adapted to enclose the terminal edge and to enclose the ends of said shirt cuff completely,
and a foldable member adapted to enclose the free edge of the outer member of said folded shirt cuff.
i. A supplementary cuff for covering a foldable shirt cuff adapted to be self-maintained in position, and having a pocket therein, comprising an unbroken face mem 361, a permanently folded edge flap, end flaps seamed to said edge flap for forming said pocket and a feldable member on said face member along the edge thereof opposite to said pocket.
A suppl mentary therein for enclosing and the end edges of a able member opposite 6. supplementary therein of cuff for cuff having a pocket the eripheral edge shirt cuff, and a fold said pocket.
cuff having a pocket A is than lalf the width of said enclosing the peripheral edge and the end ed es of a shirt cuff, and a foldable member or less than half the width of "aid supplei'nentar; cuff opposite said pocket, said supplementary cuff having button holes therein adapted to register with the button holes of said shirt cuff.
In supplementary cufi having a pocket the ein for the peripheral. edge and the end ed es of a shirt cuff and adapted to be self-man ued in position, a main unbroken face iiier forming one face of said pocket, a flap of less than half the width of said supplementary cuff folded from said face member and forming the other face of said peel-net, e 'l flaps folded from said face member clo the ends of said pocket, seams joinii said end flaps said first mentioned f o together, and a iourth flap extending "om said face men'iber along the edge thereof opposite said pocket and adap ed to be folded under the outer member of said shirt cuff, said supplementary cuff having button holes ther in registration with the button holes of i .,d shirt culf.
