2 Claims.
This invention relates to wearing apparel and more particularly to a burial garment.
It is one object of this invention to provide a garment of novel construction that may be readily and easily assembled on the body of a dead person without distorting or interfering with the natural position of the various limbs of the body.
Another object is to provide a burial garment that shall be so constructed as to permit the arm or leg portions of the garment to be opened s0 as to receive the corresponding limbs of the body and which can be readily and easily assembled about such limbs.
A further object is to provide a garment having the above characteristics having novel fastening means for connecting the co-operating edges of the garment.
A still further object is to provide a garment having the above characteristics that shall be simple in structure, durable, desirable by the trade for the purpose for which it is intended, and which can be employed in the manufacture of very cheap or expensive burial garments.
The above and other objects will be made apparent throughout the further description of the invention when' taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein like reference characters refer to like parts. It is to be distinctly understood that the drawings are not a definition of theV invention but illustrate certain forms by which the invention may be carried out. The scope of the invention will be defined by the appended claims.
Figure 1 is an exploded view showing the upper portion of an outer garment in open position for receiving a human body and an undergarment in assembled position,
Figure 2 is a perspective view of an under garment embodying the invention,
Figure 3 is a front elevational View of a dress embodying the invention,
Figure 4 is an enlarged fragmental view showing one manner of connecting the co-operating edges of the sleeve opening and the opening in the adjacent body portion of the dress, and
Figure 5 is a front elevational view of a mans trousers having the legs thereof partly disassembled.
Referring to the drawings, Figures 1 to 4 inclusive illustrate one form of a garment or a dress for a female person wherein IIJ indicates a dress in its entirety and II indicates an undergarment in its entirety. The dressy is preferably constructed to provide an opening l2 in the front thereof extending throughout the vertical height of the front of the dress. Such opening may appear at any point between the two side seams according to whatever design of front may be desired. Suitable means, such as snap fasteners i3, may be employed for detachably connecting the laps I4 and l5 and maintaining the co-operating surfaces in dress position. In order that the shoulder and arm portions of the dress or coat may be opened up to receive the corresponding portions of a body, there is provided a lateral or horizontal opening I5 across the waist portion of the dress. Preferably a belt 30 normally conceals the opening IS and connecting means I'I. opening I5 is provided with means I'I for detachably connecting the co-operating portions of the dress forming the opening I6. Each of the sleeves is slit preferably on its inner side throughout the length of that portion of the sleeve as shown at I8. The opening or slit I8 in the sleeve portion is adapted to join and coincide with an opening I 9 provided in the side of the dress which is adapted to connect and extend into the opening I5 across the front of the dress. Suitable closure means, such as 3l are provided for openings I9. The slits or openings I8 in the sleeves are preferably provided with the well-known hookless fastener means 2I for connecting or disconnecting the co-operating edges of the sleeves, but any other modern type or desired means may be employed which are suitable for the purpose. However, by providing this type of means for closing the opening I8 in the sleeve, the sleeves are caused to i'lt the arm of a body in smooth dress relation. The opening I5 across the front of the dress and the co-operating opening I9 on each side of the dress may be provided with any suitable closing device, but as shown are provided with snap fasteners I1 for connecting the adjacent edges or laps of the dress.
Referring to Figure 1, it can now be readily understood that the dress Ill may be opened up and laid out flat on a table or the like by opening the hookless fasteners 2| or other closure means that may be used in the sleeves and the snap hooks I3 and Il provided on the co-operating laps of the openings I2, I6 and I 9. Then the body of the dead person may be superimposed on the garment in the proper position and the co-operating portions of the garment folded around the corresponding parts of the body and fastened without need of moving the limbs of the body.
The undergarment II for the purpose of illustration may be constructed in one piece and The'1 Vat 29. `may be detachably rconnected by suitable snap 25.
adapted to be folded around the main portion of a body and having its co-Operating longitudinal edges lapped over to form lapped portions 22 and 23. If preferred, the design of the garment could be of the built-up shoulder type. Suitable fastening means of any desired kind, for example 26 are provided at selected points for properly assembling the laps 22 and 23 in position about the body. Shoulder straps 2l may also be provided and detachably connected to the upper rear and front edges of the garment Il by suitable means such as snap hooks 28. Y
Figure 2 illustrates the detailed construction of garment Il. In this embodiment the shoulder straps 21 are of suilcient length for their purpose as shown, and the garment is formed with the laps 22 and 23 having the upper edges coinciding one with the other.
Figure 5 illustrates one form of constructing a mans trousers. In the form shown the trousers are adapted to open along each of their sides throughout the length of the trousers as shown The lap portions 3| and 32 ofY the trousers hooks 33 as shown or a fastener of the type shown at 2| may be employed. When the trousers are in open position the front leg portions may be turned towards each other While laying on the table and the co-operating portions of a body superimposed on the rear leg portions and thereafter the front leg portions can be readily positioned about the corresponding bodyV portions and fastened as above described.
While there is here illustrated and described certain forms of a female garment and one form of a mans trousers, it is to be expressly understood that these particular forms are merely employed to illustrate the invention. The invention is particularly adaptable for use with any type of garment for either male or female. It is understood that any changes, substitutions, modifications, additions and omissions in the illustrations here shown may be resorted to without departure from the spirit and scope of the invention and appended claims and without avoidance of any rights thereby dened.
What I claim is:-
l. A Vburial garment having front, side and sleeve portions, said front portion having a longitudinal opening which extends throughout the lengthV of the. garment, said sleeve portions having longitudinal openings extending throughout the length of the sleeve, a transverse opening in the said front and openings in the said sides of said garment for connecting and communicating with the said transverse openings and the openings in the sleeve portions.
2. A burial garment having front, side and sleeve portions, sai-diront portion having a longitudinal opening which `extends throughout the length of the-garment, a transverse opening in said front portion and openings in the side of said garment, detachable means for connecting the co-operating edges of the front, transverse and side openings, and a. belt extending around the transverse opening, at and over the lower ends of the side openings, said belt being vertically split along the line of the longitudinal opening.
