insists CHARLES S. FURMAN, OF LANSING, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR TO FURMAN INVENTIONS CORPORATION, OF LANSING, MICHIGAN, A CORPORATION OF MICHIGAN.
SHIRT CUFF.
Application filed May 11, 1925.
The present invention relates to improvements in cuffs for shirts and has for an object to provide a cuff which may be made to assume the positions of either a single or a double cuff, and which may be reversed as to its use as either single or double cuff. I
The invention also contemplates the provision of a cuff of this character in which the various changes from single to double cuff, or as respects its reversibility can be accomplished without changing the overall length of the sleeve and cuff.
The invention also has for an object to provide a cuff of this character in a novel, simple and inexpensive structure in which economy of material is effected.
V'Vith the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention will be more fully described hereina'fter, and will be more particularly pointed out in the claims appended hereto. I
In the drawings, wherein like symbols refer to like or corresponding parts throughout the several views,
Figure 1 is a plan view of an improved cuff constructed according to the present invention.
Figure 2 is a section taken on the line 22 in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a plan view showing the cuff in the act of being converted into a single cuff.
Figure 4 is a section taken on the line 4l l in Figure 3.
Figure 5 is a section taken through the double cuff, and
Figure 6 is a similar section taken through. the single cuif.
Referring more particularly to the drawings 7 designates the sleeve of the shirt to which the cuff is attached. The improved cuff comprises the double superimposed sections 8 and 9 adjacent the sleeve 7 and the single cuff section 10. One of the superimposed cuff sections, for instance the cuff section 9, is secured to the edge of the sleeve 7 of the shirt, while the adjacent edge of the overlying cuff section 8 is left free whereby to permit of folding the cuff sections 8 and 9 upon the line of stitching 11, which separates the superimposed inner cuff sections 8 and 9 from the single outer cuff section 10. This line of stitching 11 Serial No. 29,518.
also marks the wearing or exposed edge. of
the cuff from which the over-all length of the combined sleeve and cuff is estimated. This length always remains unchanged in accordance with the present invention.
In Figures 1 and 2 the inner free edge of the cuff section 8 is upturned for the purpose of indicating that this edge is a free edge, but normally this edge will lie fiat as shown in Figure 5, whereupon the outer sin gle section 10 may be folded over or under on the line 11 to provide with the double or superimposed inner cuff sections 8 and 9 a double cuff effect. The lateral edges of the superimposed cuff sections 8 and 9 are stitched together as indicated at 12 and 18. The outer cuff section 10 is provided with the button holes 14 and 15, while the inner cuff section 8 is also provided with similarly positioned button holes 16 and 17. In like manner the third cuff section 9 is provided with button holes 18 and 19 shown in Figure 3 and positioned in registry with the button holes 16 and 17 in'the cuff section 8.
Now the cuff sections are formed of three pieces of material of equal Width. One piece of material extends in common over the upper sides of the sections 8 and 10 as seen in Figure 2, while the second piece of material of the same width. extends in common over the lower faces of the sections 10 and 9. A third piece of material extends in common over the inner faces of both of the superimposed sections 8 and 9, and is provided at its intermediate folding portion with a false seam 20. The three pieces of material are stitched together as indicated by the lines of stitching.
The device is used in the following manner 1- When a double cuff effect is to be secured the parts are made to assume the positions shown in Figures 1 and 2 and the outer single cuff section 10 may be folded over on the line 11 whereupon cuff buttons are inserted through the various button holes and the ends of the double cuff brought together on the wrist and secured. instance the combined inner cuff sections 5 and 9 form in effect a single ply of material inasmuch as the side edges 12 and 13 are stitched together and. the second ply or fold is provided by the outer cuff section 10. The
In this cuff section 10 may be folded in either lirectioneither outwardly or inwardly of the cuff and is thus reversible.
As shown in Figures 3 and i the superposed cuff sections 8 and 9 may be turned inside out along the seam 11. In so doing the outer cuff section 10 is enveloped by the two sections 8 and 9 and the outer cuff section isheld in a pocket formed between the superposed sections 8 and 9. This effect is shown in Figure 6 and the side edges 12 and 13 will be presented alone giving the effect of a single cuff. In Figure 5 the single arrangement is shown with the outer cuff section 10 on the exterior of the cuff.
It will be seen that the seam line 11 in every case forms the exterior edge of the cuff irrespective of whether it is used as a single or double cuff and without regard to whether the cuff is used in a right or reversible manner. The edges and surfaces not in use will be concealed and kept clean until their use is demanded.
With a cuff so constructed the neat and cleanly appearance of the cuff may be maintained throughout the wearing period of the shirt. The cuff may be made in two colors, one to match the shirt and the other white or fancy. The invention will also apply to ladies waists. When the cuff is transferred to the single position, it can be used as an ordinary starched single cuff.
It is obvious that various changes and modifications may be made in the details of construction and design of the above specifically described embodiment of this invention without departing from the spirit thereof, such changes and modifications being restricted only by the scope of the following claims What is claimed is 1. A shirt having a sleeve, and a cuff comprising three sections hingedly connected to gether at their inner ends, lines of stitches connecting the edges of two adjacent sections, one of said adjacent sections connected to said sleeve, and a line of stitches extending across the inner end of the free section.
2. A shirt having a sleeve and a cuff comprising two superimposed sections adjacent the sleeve and a third section outwardly of said superimposed sections and adapted to fold in either direction thereon, said three cuff sections being composed of three pieces of material of equal width and length, one such piece of material forming the upper surface of said outer cuff section and extending in common over the outer surface of one of the superimposed sections, a second piece of material extending in common beneath said outer section and beneath the other superimposed section, the third piece of material extending in common on the inner sides of both superimposed sections, a line of stitching extending simultaneously through the middle portions of the first two pieces of material to form a line of folding for the outer section, lines of stitching joining the edge portions of said superimposed sections, and a false seam at the intermediate portion of said third piece of material.
