UNITED STATES LENA KANOWITZ, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
GARTER.
Application led November 17, 1928. Serial No. 320,117.
tocking garters are of two general classes-those which encircle the limb of the wearer and are retained in position by the elasticity of the garter fabric and -those which are attached to the stocking by means of a removable clasp, said clasp being attached to an article of wearing apparel by means of an elastic tape.
Garters of the irst mentioned class are objectionable because of their tight fitment around the leg, preventing the free iow of blood through the veins and the garters of the last mentioned class are objectionable yin that the clasp tears the fibers of the stocking causing runs therein. y
The device of my invention overcomes both of the above-mentioned, and other objectionable features and presents a garter which will effectively retain a stocking in place without the elastic tightness' of the ring-shaped garter dependent upon its elasticity foi' usefulness and which has no clasps attached to the stocking to tear it.
My garter yis easily attached to a holding or clasping means carried by wearing apparel of the wearer and is easily removed therefrom. l
The garter of my invention, possesses properties of value.
In the accompanying drawings illustrating one form of the device of my invention, similar parts are designated by similar numerals.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one form of the garter of my invention, illustrating its manner of attachment and use.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the leg encircling garter portion of the device shown in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a section through the line 3 3 of Figure 2.
The particular form of the device of my linvention shown in the accompanying drawings comprises an elastic tape 10 passed contrariwise through the slip-clasp 11, each end 12, 12 of the tape 10 Vhaving a ring 13 attached thereto.
In the use of the garter of my invention,
therefore, great usefulness and .it enciicles a stocking 14 upon the limb of the wearer, the tape 10 being positioned within the slip-clasp 11 to accommodate it to the size of the limb and each ring 13 is then fastened to an oi'dinary stocking clasp 15, the tape portion of which 16 is lixedly attached to a portion of the wearing apparel of the wearer.
It will thus be seen that there is no clasp attached to the stocking, thus avoiding the possibility of tearing the threads and causing runs and further that as the end portions 12, 12 of the garter are drawn upwai'dly by the stocking clasp 15 and the tape portion 16 thereof, the garter will be drawn slightly upwardly upon one side, while it will assume its normal circular form when this tension is removed, as shown in Figure 1. u
This slight change of position of the garter prevents it from binding the limb in a fixed position and allows free circulation of the blood.
The garter of my invention, therefore, is economical in production, eifective in operation, prevents tearing of the stocking and prevents injurious binding of the limb of the wearer.
I do not limit myself to the particular size, shape, number, arrangement or material of parts as shown and described as these are given simply to clearly explain the device of my invention.
lVhat I claim is 1. In a limb-encircling garter, in combination, a clasp, a continuous tape passed contrariwise through said clasp forming a loop capable of encircling a limb and a fastening means attached to each end of said tape.
2. In a limb-encircling garter, in combination, a slip clasp, a continuous tape passed contrariwise through said clasp forming a loop capable of encircling a limb and a ring member attached to each end o f said tape.
Signed at New York city in the county of VNew York and State of New York this 12th day of November, 1928.
