'SQUARE FORVV'DESIGNING 'GAR'MENT PATTERNS.
AI-)plication iled October 29,1925. fSeria1'No.6 5,55,1.
Thisinvention relates to squares and .has -for an object .to 'providev an iin-,proved construction. especially radapted for designing garmentaithe structure being such that trom the square `guiding'lines may vbe drawn A quicklyand'.accurately 'for indicating `vthe position. of lines-of adesired pattern. -Another-object-of the invention isto provide a .square for vuse in designingpatterns wherein a set of indications are provided to yuse in `connection with designing the body-cfa tight iittingwaist and-other indications are provided yfor guiding apelson vin designing thesleeve of thejwaist. i
A still vfurther object, moreI4 speciiically, is .toiprovide a square capableof being 'disassembled, VVthe structure being so formed .that when V.assembled Yit will' present usual Ameasurement-sand in addition,- arbitrary vsigns .forboth the body and sleeves, and signs .indicating the .rposition of the construction linesona pattern. r-
`In the,accompanying'drawingsy i Figure ,1 .is yaplan view` of `a square, disclosingsan embodiment of theinvention, a 4,pattern being shown, inconnefction therewith'for better illustratingthe construction- .and use of the square.
Figure'. 2 `is ta .fragmentary sectional Viewy through Figure 1 on line 2-2.
Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view of one corner of the square shown in Figure 1 illustrating how the parts may be assembled and disassembled.
Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 1 but showing the sleeve pattern in connection with the square. f
Referring to the accompanying drawings by numerals, 1 indicates a sheet of paper on `which the pattern 2 is adapted to be drawn while 3 indicates the entire square. The square 3 is formed from two rulers, namely, rulers 4 and 5, said rulers being connected together at the corners by a suitable connection shown particularly in Figure 3. From this Figure it will be observed that there is a corner piece 6 having a socket 7 in which the tongue 8 connected with the ruler 4 is inserted. The tongue 8 is formed with a slit 9 whereby a resilient tongue l() is provided. This permits the tongue 8 to be readily inserted or removed and yet held in place by the resiliency of the tongue 10. The square 3 is divided by a pair of parallel lines 11 which extend centrally of both the rulers 4 and 5. On the outside of the square `there :are 1providediaV number of indications v for marking `off yconstruction `Vlines v for a shirt waist body. Y v
. Asshownin Figure 1, thesheet of paperil -is provided-with what ybeter-med vertical construction 1ines12, 13, 14,15 and 16 l and horizontal construction llines 17.and 18. y'llieselines'are. preferably .made red while auxiliary vertical construction linesv 19, .20, y211 and ,22 i'are black. v In additiomhorizontal provided fin; order f to guide the I person .draw- .ng the pattern soy that the proper. linesof the pattern may be secured. .The square 3 is .provided Nwith graduations indicating .inches and ,fractions thereof @sok that proper distances may .becovered when desired and in addition,` .thereare *provided on the voutside .lines 23"and 24are .made black as well asza special udiagonal line :25. vThese f lines are are alsol Lprovided ,black stars 32, .33, 34,35, l 1
36 and `37. rffhese black stars `indicate where the `various black .lines vare' to be ruled.
The.blackzlinesfrom the .ruler k4 .are to extendiidownwardly to the line 18 while the lines 23 and 24 extend dii'erent distancesinwardly. Line 23 is intended to extend threefourths of an inch inwardly from' the redl line 16 while line 24j also extends threefourths of an inch inwardly from the red Vline 15. By positioning these lines as set forth, the dart lines 37 may be properly located and also certain other lines may be located by reason of point 38. yWhen the various lines have been all provided, the pointv 39 is secured by an actual measurement of the. rear from .the neck down to the waistline and also the point 40 is secured by an actual measurement from the neck down to the waistline in front. These two points having been secured, line 25 may be drawn so as to connect these points and thereby give the waistline of the garment.
On the sections inside of the double lines 11 are provided red stars 41. 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47 and 48. These stars are to provide for proper construction lines for a sleeve. Associated with these markings are black stars 4.9 and 50 for constructing vertical black lines which extend down to the line 51, said line 51 extending horizontally from the star or designation 48. With these construction lines, the dressmaker ma readily draw the pattern lines. The various construction lines illustrated in Figures l and 4 are for a certain size garment but if a larger or smaller garment was necessary, the same lines would be provided and an allowance would be made for the different size dresses. In most instances, a quai'- ter of an inch would be allowed at four seams in each halt of a garment for the difference .in one size. By allowing a short distance like this on each line, the aggregate allowance will equal two inches for the entire garment.
After a person has once learned how to use the square to make the construction lines and learned the rules of sketching the pattern lines, a pattern may be quickly made by using the various arbitrary signs found on the square. In order to find the distance in special cases like the point 38 and the'end of line 24, any part of the square may be used to measure this distance. Also the other points of the pattern lines may be readily located by the usual inch graduations on the square. The square may be taken apart and used as independent rulers for measuring purposes if desired but when used to properly position the construction lines, it is preferably arranged as a square and held in a given position until the desired lines have been provided.
What I claim is:
1. A square for designing garment patterns, comprising a right angled body have ing each of its members provided with a central division line and graduated in inches on each side of said line throughout its length, one member having along its outer edge two sets of differently colored marks,
one set otmarks. being bet-Ween the other set and spaced different distances from the edge and the other member having on its outer vedge two sets of differently colored whereby the vertical and horizontal construction lines of a sleeve may beproduced.
2. A square for designing garment patterns, comprising a right angled body having each of its members provided with a central division line and graduated in inches on each side of the said line throughout the length of the member, one member having along its outer edge two sets of differently colored marks, for producing vertical construction lines of a garment body, one set of marks being between the other set andV located at different distances from'the edge, and the other member having on its outer edge two sets of differently colored marks for producing horizontal construction lines of a garment body, one set of marks'being beyond they rst set and spaced a less distance apart than the first set.
