In laundry practice it is customary to insert a narrow flexible band within the shirt bandin order toretain the latter member in proper position. Such a band is generallyv of the same height as the shirt band,.or less, and is generally satisfactory for its purpose except for the fact that it conceals the laundry mark applied to the inside of the collar band at the back thereof. The same kind of band is used for shirts with a collar attached, in which case the collar is higher than the bandis wide. When several shirts of this kind are packed in a laundry bundle, the comparatively narrow inserted band is insufficient to prevent the col- ,1.'- lat from being crushed by the weight above it.
' The present invention provides a novel shape of collar insert or backing which effectively prevents crushing the collar and also leaves the laundry mark exposed. The new collar backing is substantially equal in width to the height of the collar so that when in serted in position it effectively holds the front of the collar against buckling or wrinkling. Further, the backing is shorter than the inner contour of the collar, and is inserted in such 1 a position that the laundry mark at the back of the collar remains exposed.
Another feature of the invention resides in forming the collar backing with a convex 3 lower edge, whereby the backing takes a sloped position inside the collar, resisting slipping out of place. The center of the convex ed e may be provided with a tab or extension'w ichv slips inside the shirt and further holds the collar backing in its proper position.
The invention is fully described in the following description and in the accompanying drawing-in which- Figure 1 1s a perspectiveview of a laun-- dered shirt with collar attached, showing the device of the invention therein;
- Fig. 2 is aside elevation thereof; t v Fig. 3 is a plan view of the collar back gw Fig. 4 is a plan view. of a simpler form. Reference to these views will now be made by use oflike characters which are employed to designate corresponding parts throughout. The shirt lshown inFigures 1 and 2 is of the collar attached :type and has a soft collar 2 formed inseparably at the neck. The device of the invention consists of a strip 3 of flexible material, the length of 'whichis less than the inner band or lap 4 of the collar. One of the longitudinal edges of thestrip is convex as indicated by the numeral 5, whereby the strip takes an inclined position at the front of the collar as shown more clearly in Figure 2. Since'the strip now has a larger circumfev ence at its lower edge than at its upper edge it is not likely to slip accidentally out of place. Slipping may further-be prevented by providing a tab 6 projecting normally from the center of the convex edge 5 and adapted for insriftion inside the shirt at the front of the neo The strip 3 has a greater width than the height of the collar ,to provide a firm body resisting any weight that may be piled upon the collar and prevent the collar frombeing crushed under this weight. Inorder that the upper edge of the strip 3 may conform to theupper edge of the collar, it is concaved as at 7 but with a larger radius than the curved edge 5, so that the ends 8 of the strip shall be 7 narrower than the center thereof, in keeping with the usual collar formation wherein the front is higher than the back.
Due to t e strip being shorter than the inner lap-of the collar, the laundry mark 9 remains exposed as distinguished from the use of the ordinary closed band which covers the laundry mark.
Figure 4 illustrates the strip 3' without a central tab, and in this case the slope of the strip is relied upon to avoidslipping out of place. The simple strip 3 is otherwise formed in the same way as the member 3.
By providing a device which simply slips inside the inner lap of the collar, I overcome the'defects mentioned above and also the inconvenient operation of lifting the wings 10 and wrinkling the collar occasioned by the;
:use of the type of stiffener which is inserted z between the laps of the collar.
Although specific embodiments of the in vention have been illustrated and described, it will-be understood that various alterations in the-details of construction may be made without departing from the scope of the in 100 2 momma vention as indicated by the appended claims. flexible strip suhstantiolly equal in width to What I claim is: v the height of the collar and of less length 10 1.
