SUPPORTING LOOP FOR GARMENTS, ETC.
a Application filed April 29, 1927. Seriai io. 187,613.
i This invention relates to loops .for suspending garments ofithe type formed of a single length of resilient wire shaped to provide a lower button shank engaging loop and an upper strap or webbing engaged bar.
In loops of this, class, as previously. devised, the following'objections and defects are encountered In the first plaxe, the shapes into which it is necessary to bend the resilient wire, involving as they do re-entrant bends and loops of arying lengths, make it commercially difficult if not impossible to. manufacture them in competition. Again from the standpointof practical use, ifv projecting ends and hooks provide points of abrasion and cutting which will injure the clothing or body. Such constructions also frequently fail to embody a positive provision permitting relative yielding movement of parts to permit the button loop to adapt itself to a varying range of sizes in button shanks.
It is the object of the present invention to provide aconstruction of supporting loop embodying simplicity of construction facilitating manufacture, wide adaptability and protected loop ends.
To this end, the invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of parts W disclosed in the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification and in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the loop of the present invention as applied to the end of Suspender webbing.
Figure 2 is a perspectiveview of the loop detached and with the retaining eye for the webbing engaged cross bar open to permit the insertion of the cross bar after enclosure by the Webbing.
Figure 3 is a front elevation of the same with the cross bar locked.
Figure 4 is an end elevation of the loop as shown in Figure 3. v
Referring to the drawings: the supporting loop such as shown herein, is engaged between the folded webbing 1 at the lower end of a suspender strap and its lower button engaging loop is engaged with the shank 2 of a button 3 in the usual manner.
The supporting loop which I have provided is made of a single length of resilient wire bent around a shaping tool or machine die to provide a loop 4 with narrowed neck portion designed to spring over the shanks ofbuttons or other similar fasteners. From the narrowed portion of the neck the sides one side is bent laterally outward at 6 and i then upwardly baclm'ardly and downwardly to form an eye 7, the lower. end 8 of which, in the unassembled form of the loop, remains open. I i
At the opposite side ofthe V, the wire is also bent laterally outward but in the reverse direction as at 9 and then upwardly in a loop 10 the end of which is extended transversely across above the top of the V to form a cross bar 11, designed to be enfolded by a webbing or supporting strap, and having its end extended beyond the eye 7 as at 12 and folded upwardly and backwardly at 13, its end 14 extending backwardly at least sufficiently to ensure its insertion between and protection by the layers of the enfolding webbing as seen in Figure 1.
In the application of the cross bar 11 to the webbing or strap 1 of a suspender, for example, the loop as shown in Figure 2, has the end 14 of the bar inserted between (ill the folds of the end of the suspender webbing and its loop end 13 "is temporarily forced out of the opposite side of the webbing, the end 12 of the bar being inserted within the eye 7 through theopening afforded by the as yet unclosed end 8 thereof. The latter is now bent in, as by thin pliers so that it fully closes the lop and leaves no projecting edges to tear. shown in Figures 1 and 3 from which it will be noted that the portion 12 of the cross bar 11 normally extending beyond the eye 7 provides for relative springing movement of thesides of the V of the loop as the neck of the button loop 4 springs these sides outwardly in adapting itself to the varying sizes of button shanks 2. The end 14 of the crossbar when assembled on the webbing and in the eye 7, enters between the webbing folds as shown. The eye 7 being fully closed and the end 14 fully enclosed, there are no projecting wire ends to wear clothing or annoy the wearer.
The supporting loop is. when thus assembled, one that cannot pull its strap or web- This position is purchaser. The eye 7 extends in a plane 7 transverse to the plane of the main body of the loop so that its end may be easily opened or closed and when closed cannot be pulled open by an strain to which the garment would be en jected.
The relative simplicity of the construction provided and the absence of difficult reentrant angles and loops make it a practical form to manufacture in which economy of material and labor are present in providing the simple construction devised to meet the needs of improvement heretofore recited.
. I claim A device of the character described, composed of a single length of resilient wire shaped to provide a loop member of irregular and approximately triangular contour, said member comprising a button loop from which the sides of the member taper upwardly and outwardly'in approximately V- shape and at the top of the V are each laterally extended oppositely outward, one lateral extension terminating in an upwardly, forwardly and downwardly bent eye lying in a plane transverse to the plane of the V, and the other lateral extension being bent reve'rsely and extended transversely across and above the top of the V to form a single strap supported bar, the end of said bar being extended through and beyond said eye and being bent baekwardly again over and above the eye to terminate at a point inclosed between the folds of a supporting webbing or strap looped over said bar, the space between the end of said ba' and the engaging eye permitting expansion of the sides of the V during the insertion of a button in the button loop, and the forwardly and d0wnwardly bent end of said eye being initially opened for the insertion of the straw bar therein, the material of the eye permitting and facilitating closure and openin thereof.
