L. WOODS GARMENT SUPPORTER Filed Jan. 11 1927 Patented Mar. 6, 1928.
LEONARDWOODS, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
GARMENT SUPPORTER.
Application filed January 11, 1927. Serial No. 160,492.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in garment supporters, the perculiarities of which will be hereinafter described and claimed.
The main object of my invention to provide a device for connecting, for example, a sock and, another garment so as to perform the function of a garter yet will support the sock without circumferential pressure on the leg, and also will. resist the normal tendency of such garments to separate.
In the accompanying drawing on which like reference numerals indicate corresponding parts, Figs. 1 and 2 represent a face and edge view respectively of a device exemplifying the preferred form of my invention; Fig. 3, my device in its first position on the edge of a sock and proportionately larger than practically used; Fig. 4, the same in its second position; and Fi 5, its application to garments not directly adjacent.
The numeral 1 indicates a flat plate piece preferably stiff or unbending in the preferred form of my device,elongated oval in outline and having an aperture 2, centrally disposed, and provided with multiple slots substantially parallel,-thc slot 3 extending centrally but oppositely disposed in one direction, and the slots 4; extending parallel but in the opposite direction from said aperture. The side edges of each of these slats are preferably converging toward their ends as shown in order to grip the portion of the garments inserted therein in their use described later. The slots t are practically parallel and the portion between the slots constitutes a tongue 5 extending inwardly to'erd the middle of the aperture 2, and provided at its end with serrations, preferably. This tongue is integral with the plate and preferably in the same plane as the body of the plate. An opening 6 is also formed at one end of the piece for the elas tic connection when a pair of such pieces are to be used on garments that are not directly adjacent.
In the use of my device upon a sock for instance, the tongue 5 is slipped over the edge of the sock so that it is on the inner side as shown in Fig. 3. The slots 4 grip the fabric firmly, as the converging edges of the slots are pressed downward upon the edge of the sock. The device is then reversed by turning it upward as shown in Fig. 4, which brings the end of the tongue or the serrations of the tongue 5 in contact with the fabric while the slots '1: hold the edge firmly and prevent the device from slipping from the sock. The oppositely disposed slot 3 then in the upper position, and a portion of the adjacent underwear is pulled through the aperture 2 and is firmly pinched or gripped by the slot 3. The sock is thus connected to the adjacent underwear or other piece, and is supported without circumferential pressure and the tongue with its serrations is wrapped in the fold of the sock so there is no danger of their contact with the person; they are also preferably rounded so as to engage the fabric without tearing it. This is the description of the use of my device as a connection between a sock and full length underwear. \Vhen such underwear is shorter in the legs, such as the well-known B. V. D.s, my device as shown in Fig. 1 is used in pairs and connected by an elastic web inserted through the hole 6, and preferably varied in length by a sliding buckle.
As further illustrating its use, a pair of such pieces is shown with suitable conncction, and attached by the gripping slots of each piece to the top of a sock and the lower portion of a sport shirt in Fig. 5. The sock is supported and the lower end of the shirt is prevented from crawling upward above the trousers band.
Thus my device, whether used singly to connect garments that are directly adjacent, or connected in pairs when a space intervenes between said garments, does not exert any pressure upon the person. of the wearer, while proper support is given to such garments as tend to settle downward, and it resists the tendency of the connected garment in the other direction.
I claim:
1. A garment supporter consisting of a stiff flat plate piece having a central aperture provided with multiple oppositely disposed parallel gripping slots, substantially as described.
2. A garment supporter consisting of an unbending fiat device having acentral aperture provided with two slots extending outwardly in substantially parallel directions forming an interposed tongue and another slot disposed centrally opposite said tongue and extending from said aperture in parallel, opposite direction to said two slots.
3. A garment supporter consisting of a plate piece having an aperture provided With parallel multiple slots disposed in 0pposite directions from the aperture,two of said slotsextending in the same direction and forming an intermediate integral tongue in the body plane, substantially as described.
4. A device of the character described, consisting of a plate piece having an aperture provided with two slots substantially parallel and forming an intermediate tongue,and said aperture having another oppositely disposed slot, substantially as described.
5. A device of the character described, consisting of a plate piece having an aperture provided with three slots,t\\'o of said slots being substantially parallel and disposed opposite the third slot in said aperture and forming a tongue having a serrated edge, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have afiixed my signature.
LEONARD XVOODS.
