Description
Filed June 26. 1935 ad fimvsmon Vie for Tfiom ATTORNEY i atented Dec. 29, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
This 1 vention relates to carpenters garments and h for an object to provide a garment'of this type which will dispense with braces, strings or straps for suspending the garment from the shoulders of the wearer.
A further object is to provide a sleeveless garment in which the weight of the tools and supply of nails is equalized on the shoulders and across the back to promote safety when walking in high places and to promote freedom of movement of the wearer's limbs when walking or climbing ladders and scaffolds.
A further object is to provide a flap having a set of nail pockets, and extending across the front of the garment near the lower edge thereof,
the flap being fastened at one end to the garment and being removably secured by buttons or otherwise at the opposite end to the garment so that the flap may fold back and give free ac- 2 cess to the buttons or other fasteners on the front of the garment.
A further object is to provide a garment having all the fasteners in the front to promote safety when working over water for example,
when in case of a fall the garment can be torn open and discarded at once with all excess weight of tools, nails, etc., thus making it possible to swim.
A further object is to provide a garment having elongated arm holes and openings in the back and in the front reenforced with eyelets to provide for ventilation, there being also additional openings in the back of the garment which are elongated longitudinally of the garment and permit of the imperforate portions of the garment between the openings equalizing the weight of the ax, pliers, tape, and hammer upon the back of the neck.
A further object is to provide a garment having a pad on the inside just below the neck line to relieve pressure on the neck of the wearer.
With the above and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts hereinafter 45 fully described and claimed, it being understood that various modifications may be resorted to within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of 50 the advantages of the invention.
In the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the front of the garment constructed in accordance with my 55 invention in applied position.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the back of the garment shown in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a detail longitudinal sectional view taken on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Referring now to the drawing in which like characters of reference designate similar parts in the various views, the garment I0 is in the form a sleeveless jacket or vest open -at the front and overlapped, to take fasteners such as buttons I l although clamps, zippers, hooks and 10 eyes, or other fasteners may equally well be'used. The garment is sufficient in length to cover the hips, chest and back of the wearer and is provided with elongated arm holes [2 which promote ventilation. It will be noted that the arms 15 and legs of the wearer are unobstructed so that freedom of movement is promoted under all conditions of service such as walking and climbing ladders or scaffolds.
By now referring to Figure 1 it will be seen that a flap 21 extends across the abdominal portion of the garment and on one side of the line of fasteners H is rigidly secured to the garment by a plurality of lines of stitching 28 passing along the upper edge of the flap and along one end edge of the flap. The opposite end of the flap is secured to the garment on the opposite side of the line of fasteners I I by means of fasteners such as buttons 29 arranged along the top edge of the flap, and for additional security the flap is provided with tabs 30 and 31 projecting respectively upwardly from the top edge and laterally from the lower end of the end edge of the flap and secured in place by buttons 32 and 33. The front of the flap is provided with a plurality of pockets 34 to 39 inclusive to receive various sizes of nails. When these pockets are loaded the weight of the pockets'is distributed uniformly over the shoulders of the wearer and upon the back of the wearer so that safety when walking in high places will be greatly promoted since the wearer may retain good balance, which is highly essential.
By unfastening the tabs 30 and 3| and disengaging the free end of the flap from the buttons 7 29, the flap may be folded back upon itself and the upper tab 30 may be fastenedto a button 40 secured to the garment above the fastening line of stitches 28 to hold the flap in position to expose the line of fasteners II to permit the garment being buttoned up or unbuttoned as the case may be and also to permit the garment to be ripped off at the front in case of emergency such as for instance the wearer falling while working over water, so that the garment and excess weight of tools may be discarded. The button or equivalent fastener 40 byholding the flap folded prevents the nails falling out when the wearer is putting on or taking off the garment.
It will be pointed out that below the lines of stitching 28 the flap is not secured to the gar ment except by means of a tab 4| and button 42 which latter holds the flapsecurely in position at all times while at the same time the tab 3| at the opposite end of the flap maybe hooked over the button 42 when the tab 30 is hooked over the button 40 in order to securely hold the flap folded upon itself. 7
Referring to Figures 2 and 3 it will be seen that an arcuate' pad 46 is disposed on the inside of the back of the garment below the neck opening l6 and extends to the top of the shoulders. This pad relieves pressure upon the neck of the wearer so that the garment may be comfortably worn under all conditions of service, such as for instance over oil or water repellent clothing.
From the above description it is thought that the construction and operation of my invention will be fully understood without further explanation.
What is claimed is:
1. A sleeveless garment of hip length opening at the front, a vertical line of fasteners for the open front of the garment extending from the hip to the neck'of the garment, a flap extending transversely across in front of the abdominal part of the garment above the lower edge of the garment, pockets in the flap, said flap being fixedly secured at one end to the garment at one side of said line of fasteners, means removably securing the opposite end of the flap to the garment on the, other side of said line of fasteners, said flap when so secured covering the lowermost fasteners, said flap being adapted to be folded back upon itself toward the secured end thereof to permit access to the lowermost fasteners ofv the line of fasteners, and means for fastening the flap in folded position on the garment.
2. A sleeveless garment of hip length opening at the front, a vertical line offfasteners for the open front of the garment extending from the hip to the neck of the garment, a flap extending transversely across the front of the abdominal part of the garment above the lower edge of the garment, pockets in the flap, said flap being fixedly secured at one end to the garment atone side of said line of fasteners, means removably securing the opposite end of the flap to the garment onthe other side=of said line of fasteners, said flap when so secured covering the lowermost fasteners, said flap being adapted to be folded back upon itself toward the secured end thereof .to permit access to the lowermost fasteners of the line of fasteners, tabs on the secured end of the flap, and fastening devices on the tabs adapted to engage the free end of the folded flap and hold the folded flap laterally of said line of fasteners.
