ARTICLE FOR PROTECTING THE WRISTS AND Anus AGAINST cow Filed June 27, 1 930 2 Sheets-#heet 2 Patented July 21, 1931 umr PTENT GFFIQE ALFRED STONE, or LONDON, ENGLAND Application filed. June 2'7, 1930, Serial No. 464,181, and. in Great Britain July 2, 1929.
This invention relates to an improved article to be worn on the wrists and lower part of the arms, for protecting the wearer against cold, and particularly against the discomfort caused by cold air passing up the sleeves of ordinary wearing apparel, which discomfort is so frequently experienced by sportsmen, motor drivers and the like, even when gloves are worn.
The protective article according to the present invention consists of a short sleeve or cuff of suitable leather, such, for instance, as sheepskin, doeskin or other reasonably soft leather, which is lined, preferably with fleece, and is provided at each of its ends with a band of fur and at its centre with suitably arranged elastic or other means by which said short sleeve of leather is contracted so as to grip the lower part of the arm of the wearer, i. e., the part of the arm immediately above the wrist, with a pressure sufficient to keep the article in place. The fur used at the ends of said short sleeve, though it may consist of any suitable fur, preferably consists of natural or undyed rabbit fur, as this fur besides possessing the necessary degree of softness will not become flattened out by pressure of a sleeve under which the article is worn. Said bands of fur, though they may be directly sewn on to the short sleeve of leather, are, with the object of ensuring that the fur will be at the desired height above the short sleeve,
sewn round fillets or bands of cotton wool at the ends of the leather sleeve.
The elastic by which the centre of the short sleeve of leather is contracted may consist of elastic webbing of somewhat narrow width which is secured in place in stretched condition on the inner side of the sleeve by means of loop stitching.
This invention is illustrated by the accompanying drawings, in which Figures 1 and 2 are plans of the protective article as seen from above and below;
Figure 3 is a longitudinal section of the article the central part of the latter being broken away;
Figure 4 is a plan of the leather sleeve of the article turned inside out, illustrating the preferred arrangement of the elastic webblng by which the article is contracted at its centre and held in place when in use, and
Figure 5 is a plan showing how the fillets 0r bands of cotton wool may be attached to the fleece or other lining of the sleeve.
In these figures 1 indicates the leather sleeve of the protective article, 2 are the bands of fur at the ends of the sleeve 1, 3 are lengths of elastic webbing stitched to the inner side of the sleeve 1, 4 is the lining to the sleeve 1 and 5 are the fillets or bands of cotton wool round which are stitched the bands of fur 2.
In manufacturing the protective article a strip of reasonably soft leather, such, for instance, as a. strip of either sheepskin or docskin, of the necessary width and length is used, and, after being turned face inwards, is made into the form of a sleeve 1 by sewing to one another the meeting edges of the strips.
A suitable number of lengths of elastic webbing 3, for instance three lengths of web bing of about half an inch in width, are then sewn at one of their ends to the sleeve 1, preferably, as shown in Figure 4, to one of the ends of the joined strip of leather. The elastic webbing 3 so attached to the sleeve 1 is secured in stretched condition to the sleeve by means of loop stitching, as shown in Figure 4, with the result that corrugations 6 are formed in the part of the sleeve to which the elastic is loop-stitched. A strip of fleece or other suitable soft material of the necessary width and length after being reversed, is converted into a sleeve of such size that it will serve as a lining 4 for the leather sleeve 1. Fillets or bands 5 of cotton wool are, as shown in Figure 5, now sewn to the ends of the lining 4 on the reverse face thereof. The parts of the fillets or bands 5 of cotton wool which extend beyond the ends of the lining 4 are now doubled or folded on to one another and secured in folded condition by light stitching. Bands of fur 2 of the necessary width are then sewn at one of their edges to the inner side of the lining 4. The leather sleeve 1 is now turned face outwards, and the lining 4 with the bands of fur 2 attached thereto, at one of their edges, as aforesaid, is passed into the leather sleeve and the bands of fur 2 secured in position round. the fillets or hands of cotton wool by sewing the other edges of the bands of fur 2 to the leather sleeve 1, so completing the article.
The provision at the ends of the leather sleeve 1 of fillets or bands 5 of cotton wool to serve as supports for the bands of fur 2, besides ensuring, as aforesaid, that the fur will be at the desired height above said sleeve, will facilitate the entrance of the hand into the protective article and render said article more comfortable than would he the a if the ends of the sleeve were of stii'l'er nature.
The number and depth of the corrugations formed in the leather sleeve 1 when the elastic webbing 3 is attached thereto in stretched :ondition must be such that the article can be readily passed over the hand into position above the hand, and the elastic webbing must be of such strength that it will when the article is in place exert a pressure only just sul'licient to prevent movement of the article, as too great a pressure apart from producing discomfort, would affect circulation of the blood.
Having described my invention, ll declare that what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1- 1. An article for protecting the wrists and arms against cold comprising a short sleeve. a lining for said sleeve, a band of cotton wool secured to each end of said lining, a band of fur at each end of the sleeve secured at one edge to the lining, and at the other edge to the sleeve so as to surround the cotton wool, and means located centrally of the sleeve for contracting it to the extent required to keep it in place when in use.
2. An article for protecting the wrists and arms against cold comprising ashort slceve, a lining for said sle ve, a hand of cotton wool secured to each end of said lining, a band of fur at each end of the sleeve secured at one edge to the lining and at the other edge to the sleeve so as to surround the cotton wool and elastic webbing secured to the inner side of the sleeve for contracting it to the extent required to keep it in place when in use.
An a rticie for protecting the wrists and arms against cold comprising a short sleeve, a lining for id sleeve, a folded band of cotton wool stitched along one edge to the reverse face at each end of said lining and secured in folded condition by stitching along its other edge, a band of fur at each end of the sleeve stitched at one edge to the lining and at the other edge to the sleeve so as to surround the cotton wool and elastic web bing secured to the inner side of the sleeve centrally thereof for contracting it to the eX- tent required to keep it in place when in use.
a. An article for protecting the wrists and arms against cold comprising a short sleeve, a lining for said sleeve, a folded band of cotton wool stitched along one edge to the reverse face at each end of the lining so as to nature hereto.
