Description
2, 137. E. G. BOYLE GUSHIONED STOCKING SUPPORi'ER GUARD Original Filed July 22, 1935 Patented Dec. 28, 1937 PArs rorFmE CUSHIONED STOCKING SUPPORTER GUARD Eugene G. Boyle, San Francisco Cali'f.
Application July 22, 1935, SerialNo. 32,617 Renewed May 19, 1937 i 6 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in wearing apparel and has particular reference to a cushioning means adapted to be suspended from a corset, girdle or the like, for protecting the leg of the Wearer'against any pressing or pinching action of the hose supporter, when the wearer is in a sitting posture.
Theprincipal object of the invention is to provide a cushioning means of the character described that is simple in construction, economical to manufacture, positive in operation and efficient in use. Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the device constructed in accordance with my invention,
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a portion of a human figure showing the device in use, and
Fig. 3 is an end elevation of Fig. 1.
It frequentlyhappens that the metal parts sus pended from girdles or corsets, and functioning toshorten or lengthen the supporter or to hold the top of the stocking, are the source of pressure, annoyance and inconvenience when a woman is in a sitting position. Also a slight turn in a chair or like support will cause a pinching action of the flesh with consequent distress to the individual. For the purpose of eliminating this annoyance and inconvenience and physical discomfort, I propose to interpose between the metal parts of the hose supporter and the flesh of the leg of the wearer my improved cushioning element that will efficiently and positively eliminate the distressing pressing or pinching action.
In the accompanying drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention/the numeral 4 designates a girdle and the numeral 5 the stockings'of the wearer. A conventional hose supporter 'is indicated by the numeral 6 and the metal parts carried thereby and adapted for use in supporting the stocking are indicated by the numeral 1.
My improved device comprises an elongated strip of protecting cushioning material that may consist all, or in part; of pressed sponge rubber, felt or other fabric or elastic material that has a cushioning consistency. The said cushioning memberis designated as a whole by the numeral 8 and has provided at its upper end a pair of snap fasteners 9 that are detachably, secured to the underside of the girdle. It will be noted that the member 8 is provided with a pair of flanges or ridges it) that extend throughout the length of the member 8 and are formed on the marginal edges of the same. These ridges or flanges are preferably raised so that they will lie in a plane slightly above the plane of the top of the stud ll of the clasp. Thus they will serve to confine the hose supporter within the body of the member 8 and will eliminate accidental displacement of the supporter 6 and clasp from said member. If desired a band may be employed to further guard against displacement of said supporter.
While I have shown the member 8 as detachably secured'to the girdle it is obvious that it may be formed integral therewith or may be securely fastened to the girdle by stitching or any other type of fastening means desired. The member 8 may, likewise, be made of material that is partially elastic or non-elastic, depending upon the option of the manufacturer.
'From the foregoing description, considered in connection with the accompanying drawing, it will be obvious that I have devised a unique supporter guard that will readily accomplish the desired cushioning effect and will enable the wearer to sit in comfort without experiencing the physical annoyances above recited.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes relative to. the material, size, shape and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims. 7
Having thus described my invention, I c1aim:-
1. In combination with a girdle or the like, having. a hose Supporter attached thereto, of cushioning means having elongated marginal ridges interposed between the supporter and the leg of the wearer of said girdle adapted to prevent contact of said hose supporter with the flesh of the wearer. j
2. In combination with a girdle or the like, of
a stocking supporter guard suspended from said girdle and comprising a cushioning element, and equipped with means for confining a stocking supporter within said guard, said means embodying elongated marginal ridges.
3. In combination with a girdle or the like, of a stocking supporter guard suspended from said girdle and equipped with means'for confining a stocking supporter within said guard,
said means comprising ridged elements provided on the marginal edges of said guard.
4. In combination with a girdle or the like, having a hose supporter attached thereto, of cushioning means interposed between the supporter and the leg of the wearer of the girdle, the said cushioning means extending approximately the full length of the hose supporter to prevent contact of the hose supporter with the flesh of the wearer, irrespective of the length adjustment of the hose supporter.
5. In combination with a girdle or the like, having a hose supporter attached thereto, of cushioning means interposed between the supporter and the leg of the wearer of the girdle, the said cushioning means extending approximately the full length of the hose supporter to prevent contact of the hose supporter with the flesh of the wearer, irrespective of the length adjustment of the hose supporter, said cushioning means comprising an elongated strip of pressed sponge rubber material.
6. In combination with a girdle or the like, having a hose supporter attached thereto, of cushioning means interposed between the supporter and the leg of the wearer of the girdle, the said cushioning means extending approximately the full length of the hose supporter to prevent contact of the hose supporter with the flesh of the wearer, irrespective of the length adjustment of the hose supporter, said cushioning means comprising an elongated strip of pressed sponge rubber material, said material having marginal ridges provided thereon to retain the hose supporter within the confines of the cush- EUGENE G. BOYLE.
