- APRON Filed July 3, 1935 GJCLQ INVENTOR Patented July 12, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Ada cumin, Utah Application July 3, 1935, Serial No. 291650 4 Claims.
My invention relates to improvements in aprons for personal wear, and of the sleeveless type, employing ties or strings at the back for securing the garment about the hips and waist.
5 The apron of my invention is designed to provide a garment that is comparatively inexpensive in the cost of production; economical in the material used, which may be put on and removed with facility, and which is effective in 10 use, and presents a ,neat and attractive appearance. v
Due to the novel construction and arrangement of parts of the apron, the garment may be conveniently washed, and ironedliiat, thus 15 insuring facility in folding the laundered garment and also facility in storing the garment until ready for use.
My invention involves particularly the back of the apron and the arrangement and use of 90 strings in combination with the apron back for securing the-apron in place and against lateral displacement.
One of the essential features of the apron involves its construction whereby the same apron 25 maybe adjusted to flt persons of varying heights and sizes, thus providing in one size of apron a garment that may be used in lieu of three dif ferent sized aprons, with consequent economy in time and material in the manufacture of the 30 aprons.
The patterns, shape and style of the aprons may-be changed as desired, and the novel back structure, which forms the essence of my invention, may be varied, as indicated in my draw- In the accompanying drawing I have shown three variations in the back of the apron wherein the back panel is connected to the neck line of the apron. This drawing illustrates the em- 40 bodiment of my invention according to models I have so far devised for the mechanical application of the principles of my invention.
- Figure 1 is a back view of an apron embodying my invention, wherein the back panel is at- 45 tached to the neck line by means of shoulder straps. v
Figure 2 is a back view showing the back panel ('I) attached directly at the back of the neck yoke.
60 Figure 3 is a back view showing the back panel (8) as an extension of the neck yoke.
It will be understood that the drawing illustrates the apron and its parts in conventional manner only, and that, of course, the aprons are 55 made up in work aprons and fancy aprons, in
various shapes, colors and styles, from various materials and goods, and with or without ornamental features and finish.
In Figure 1, the back panel is sewed at the top to the shoulder straps. To the triangu- 5 lar bottom of the back panel the strings (5) are sewed. These strings are so attached that they, extend diagonally across the back of the wearer and pass through loops on extension (6) to the body of-the apron. The loops are formed by 10 catching a piece of cloth at the top and bottom of the extension. The extension may be formed as an integral part of the body of the apron or may be a bound piece of cloth caught in the binding of the apron body. In place of I loops, slits cut in the extensions to body 01' the apron and bound may be used. With the loops as with the slits, the strings pass through them and tie at the middle of the back. These strings are of sumcient length as to permit adjustment of the apron to wearers of various sizes, thus adapting a single apron for use by one or a number of persons, and preserving at the same time the neat appearance of the apron. The
apron is thus especially adapted for use in factories, hotels, hospitals, and other places where aprons are used in large quantities and a neat and attractive appearance is necessary, and these large quantities of aprons are capable of being laundered smoothly and at low cost.
In Figures 2 and 3 the use of the panel, strings and slits (or loops) is the same, the only variation being in the attaching of the panel to the neck line.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In an apron, the combination of a permanent back panel attached only at the neck portion of the apron, the lower extremity of said 40 panel being cut on lines inclined in opposite directions with respect to the horizontal, diagonally disposed strings attached to the lower extremity of the panel extending in divergent directions toward the rear side edges of the apron, and side extensions secured to the rear side edges of the apron and carrying loopmembers through which said strings may be inserted and secured, whereby the apron may be adjusted as to length and girth.
2. In an apron, the combination of a back panel having a free lower extremity cut on lines inclined in opposite directions with respect to the horizontal, strings attached to the. inclined edge portions of said panel and extending diagoaaily in divergent directions toward the rear other for securin together, whereby the apron side edges or the apron, and means at the rear may be adjusted and ntted to the bodies or wearaideedges oi the apron for detachably and adera 01 various sins. justably securin said strings to said rear side 4. In an apron, the combination of a back whereby the apron may be adjusted as panel permanently attached to the remainder of to length and girth. the apron only at its upper extremity adjacent l 8. In an apron, the combination of a back the neckline, the lower extremity oi said panel panel having a tree lower extremity cut on lines being free, tie strings attached to and extending inclined in opposite directions with respect to diagonally from said lower extremity of the the horizontal, ,tie strings attached 4to.. the inpanel toward the rear aide edges or the apron, clined edge portions oi said panel and extending and means forming string receiving openings 10 diagonally in divergent directions" toward the spaced rearwardly from the side edges of the rear side edges of the'apron, and means t0rm-. apron through which said tie strings may be ing string receiving openings adjacent the waistled and doubled back toward one another for line but spaced rearwardly from the rear side securing together, whereby the apron may be edges of the apron through which saidtie strings adjusted and fitted to the body of the wearer. 15
may be ied and doubled back toward one an- ADA QUINN.
