Description
A. QUINN Nov. 30, 1937.
APRON Filed July 6, 1955 INVENTOR Patented Nov. 30, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
My invention relates to aprons, and involves particularly a novel form of apron back wherein a divided back yoke, the sections of which may be either tied or buttoned together to provide adjustment, is combined with strings or straps connecting the two portions of the divided yoke with the points of the apron to which the tie strings are sewed, the purpose of these straps being to prevent the yoke from sliding out of place and to aid in fitting the apron to the wearer. The tie strings are sewed to the sides of the apron in the customary manner and are adapted to be tied in the center of the back as usual.
As illustrative of the present invention, there are shown in the accompanying drawing two different forms of apron embodying my improved back, Figure 1 being a rear view of an apron wherein the sections of the divided yoke are detachably and adjustably connected together by tie strings, while Figure 2 is a similar view of another apron employing buttons and buttonholes for connecting the yoke sections.
As shown in Figure 1, the apron consists of a body or front portion l which is adapted to cover parts of the front and sides of the wearer and to be held in place around the wearer by a pair of tie strings 2 secured, as usual, to the side edges of the front portion adjacent the waistline and adapted to be knotted or otherwise secured together in the center of the wearers back. Connected to the upper end of the front portion l of the apron are a pair of yoke sections 3 which are adapted to pass over the shoulders and across the back of the wearer and to be detachably and adjustably connected together by tying, the tie being made either with the ends of the yoke sections themselves or with individual strings 3a secured to the yoke sections for that purpose. Interconnecting the free end of each yoke section 3 and the corresponding side edge of the front portion of the apron adjacent the point of attachment of the tie string 2 is a strap 4, these straps aiding in holding the yoke in place and in lengthening or shortening the front of the apron.
The apron shown in Figure 2 is substantially identical with that of Figure 1 except that the free ends of the sections 3 of the divided yoke are provided with a plurality of buttons and buttonholes 5 which may be employed selectively to adjust the apron to the individual wearer.
An apron of this construction possesses several desirable features in that it not only provides a standard garment which can be easily adjusted to fit persons of different sizes, thus avoiding the necessity for making the usual three sizes of aprons, but also results in economies in manufacture both because the elimination of the customary back panel effects a saving of material and because the present apron can be cut and sewed up more quickly and at less cost for labor than aprons of the forms hitherto known.
Although two specific forms of apron embodying the invention have been described and shown in the accompanying drawing, it will be understood that the drawing illustrates the aprons and their parts in conventional manner only and that in practice the aprons may be made up as either Work or fancy aprons, in Various shapes, colors and styles, and with or withoutornamental features and finish. Inasmuch as the drawing is therefore illustrative only and is not intended to establish the scope of the invention, reference must be had to the appended claims for a definition of the limits of the invention.
What is claimed is:
1. In an apron, the combination of a front portion adapted to cover parts of the front and sides of the wearer, a pair of tie strings secured to the side edges of the front portion and adapted to be knotted in the center of the wearers back, a back yoke connected to the front portion and adapted to extend across the back of the wearer adjacent the neckline, said yoke being divided into two sections and including means for detachably and adjustably connecting said sections together so constructed and arranged as to provide a yoke of variable length, and a pair of straps secured at their upper ends to said yoke sections and at their lower ends to the side edges of said front portion.
2. In an apron, the combination of a front portion adapted to cover parts of the front and sides of the wearer, a pair of tie strings secured to the side edges of the front portion adjacent the waistline and adapted to be secured in the center of the wearers back, a back section connected to the front portion at the shoulders and adapted to extend across the back of the wearer, said section being divided into two parts and including means for detachably and adjustably connecting said parts together so constructed and arranged as to provide a section of variable length, and a pair of straps secured at their upper ends to said section parts and at their lower ends to the side edges of said front portion adjacent the points of attachment of said tie strings.
