Patented Nov. 1, 1938 UNITED, STATES PATENT, OFFICE SHOULDER-STRAP HOLDER Eugene B. Young, Medford, Mass. Application May 20, 1935, Serial No. 22,446
2 Claims.
This invention relates to improvements in shoulder strap holders and it consists in the constructions, arrangements and combinations herein described and claimed.
It is an object of the invention to provide a holding device which is of light construction; readily applied to a garment; invisible when applied to a garment, and which will efiiciently support a shoulder strap.
It is a still further object of the invention to provide a device upon which a shoulder strap may be readily attached or removed therefrom.
Additional objects, advantages and features of invention will be apparent from the following description and accompanying drawi g; wherein Figure 1 is of a garment, a portion thereof being broken away, illustrating my invention 'in use.
Figure 2 is a fragmentary bottom plan view of the device attached to a garment.
Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 1, illustrating a modification of the holder. I
Figure 4 is a fragmentary top plan view of the garment of Figure 3, with a portion broken away, indicating the relation of the shoulder strap in applied position.
Attention is first directed to Figures 1 and 2 cf the drawing, wherein a garment I is indicated, generally, and upon the under face of the garment there is secured the shoulder strap H. The strap holder H is substantially T-shaped in plan, the cross bar 12 extending transversely of the seam l3. The cross bar 12 is provided with a series of. apertures l4 around its edge, by means of which the holder is secured to the garment by stitches l5. The cross bar i2 will be positioned adjacent the shoulder of the garment and the free end IE will therefore be presented toward the neck of the garment.
The entire holder may be stamped in a single operation, from any suitable material, such as Celluloid, which will retain its shape, yet will be flexible enough to accommodate itself to the a formation of the shoulder without creating an uncomfortable feeling to the wearer.
In use, it will only be necessary to slightly flex the free end downwardly slightly from the garment, to permit the strap H to be positioned thereover. As soon as the free end It assumes its normal position the strap l'l will be borne into frictional contact with'the material of the garment, and the pressure and frictional contact will amply support the strap. Any tendency of the strap I! to slide toward the shoulder is of course obviated.
In Figures 3 and 4, a modification of the holder is shown, and in this form the holder body 18 is shown as an elongated member, adjacent one end of which there is mounted a small pin I9. The pin l9 may be of various con structions, but preferably is of the bar type including a safety catch. The body 18 may be formed from any suitablelight, flexible material, and the bar 20 of the pin is positioned longitudinally of the body l4 and permanently secured thereto. The pin portion 21 thereof will therefore be free for insertion in the shoulder seam of a garment.
The free end of the body l8 will of course be presented toward the neck of the garment, as in the first form, and placement of the shoulder strap I! will likewise be the same.
In use, a smooth surface will be presented to the shoulder of the wearer, and as the safety pin will only project very slightly above the body I8 no unsightly bulge will be presented to the outer garment.
While I have shown and described certain preferred forms of the invention I am aware that modifications may be made, and I therefore consider as my own, all such variations in constructions as fairly fall within the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:--
1. A shoulder strap holding means consisting of an elongated member of sheet material having means adjacent one end but spaced from said end for securement of one end of the member to a garment, the other end of said member being free but normally contacting the garment yieldingly, said free end being flexible whereby to permit placement of a shoulder strap between the garment and the free end, and whereby the strap will be clasped between the member and the garment.
2. A shoulder strap holder consisting of a flat thin body member of'sheet material, said body member having a transverse bar at one end, said bar having a plurality of apertures for reception of securing means and the other end of the body being free but normally contacting the garment yieldingly, whereby to permit placement of a shoulder strap between the garment and the free end of the body member. 1
