April ll, 1939. J, G, -HOWLAND SLIP Filed Feb. 6, 1959 INVENTOF! ATTORNEY .Patented Apr. 11, 1939 UNITED STA ES 'l'` OFFICE SLIP Application February 6, 1939, Serial No. 254,929
2 Claims.
The pr-esent invention deals with wearing apparel and more particularly is concerned with undergarments for feminine use, and an object of the invention is realized in the provision of a functionally and structurally improved slip or undergarment having elastic seams disposed longitudinally of and connecting adjacent panels of the undergarment to take up lengthwise stretch thereof occurring in actu-al use caused by Various extensions and inherent contractions of the panels. The invention has as a further object the provision of a slip of the character alluded to wherein the weave of the panels is disposed in a biased relation and marginal portions thereof are secured by an elastic and reinforced seam. Other objects, advantages, and features of the invention will appear from the following detailed description consideredin connection with the ac companying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a side elevational view of the slip according to my invention and shown in its fully expanded relation.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view taken on the line 2--2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 isa plan View of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 is a sectional View taken on the line 4--4 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary sectional View of a pair of panels shown wrong side out prior to application of the elastic and reinforced seam thereto.
Fig. 6 is a view showing the panels of Fig. 5 secured together by the elastic seam.
Fig. 7 is an enlarged sectional view on the line 'I-T of Fig. l.
Fig. 8 is a sectional view on the line 8 8 of Fig. 7.
Fig. 9 is a view taken on the line 9 9 of Fig. l and Fig. 10 is a sectional view on the line l--Ill of Fig. 1.
Illustrative of the embodiment disclosed the slip or undergarrnent is generally denoted A and comprises a front panel Il, a rear panel I2, the side panels I3, front yokes lli, backing I5, and strap means It. According to the invention. the front and rear panels il and I2 are secured to the adjacent side panels I3 by an elastic seam means il and i8 while yokes I4 and backing I5 may be secured to the several panels by suitable lines of stitching I9.
In providing the elastic seam means I8 between a pair of adjacent panels, for example, panels I2 and I3 (Figs. 2 to 6), which may be of a suitable cloth such as rayon or silk, these are rst arranged wrong side out and in superimposed relation in such a way that the marginal portions 2li thereof are in alinement as indicated in Fig. 5. Thereafter multiple and threaded needles 2l are applied to the marginal portions 20 to characterize horizontally spaced but vertical rows of stitching each denoted 23 and each comprising a plurality of vertically spaced loops E4 interconnected by a sinuous Stringer or chain thread 25 alternately passing through the eyes of the loops of the spaced rows 23 and during such multiple stitching the superimposed marginal portions 2D between the spaced vertical rows 23 of loops 2li are formed wih nested concavo convex portions 2S Ydefining in fact transversely curved and longitudinally arranged resilient bead means generally designated 2l and during such stitching the edges of the marginal portions 20 are appropriately pinked or scalloped as shown.
In a similar fashion front panel I I is secured to the side panels I3 by an elastic seam I'I (Figs. 7-9 inclusive) which seam is identical to the elastic seam connection I8 illustrated and described in connection with Figs. 3 to 6 inclusive, and in actual practice the elastic seams or connections may be arranged so that the chain 25 is concealed between an adjacent panel and marginal portion 2i! as indicated in Fig. 2 while the bead 21 is exposed to the inside of the garment of course when the garment is turned iight side out while in Fig. 'l bead 2l is concealed by one of the panels as shown while the chain or thread 25 lies exposed to the inside of the garment when the latter is turned right side out. This matter is one of choice and carried into eiTect during ironing after the panels have been appropriately secured.
By reason of the yielding and elastic interconnection of the Stringer 25 with the loops or links 24 of the spaced rows 23 and by reason of the biased relation of the weave of the adjacent panels, the latter can stretch lengthwise without however severing or breaking the loops 24 or Stringer 25 and during such stretching beads 21 are also yieldingly elongated. The inherent resiliency of the loops 2li, stringer 25, and beads 2l vcauses these members to retract to their normal unstretohed position upon removal of the tension from the biased panels.
Without further analysis the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention that others can by applying current knowledge readily adapt it to various applications without omitting certain features that from the standpoint of the prior art, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspect of this invention, and therefore, such adaptations should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning of the following claims.
I claim:
1. An elastic seam for use in a garment wherein adjacent elastic panels have their weave disposed in a biased relation and marginal portions of said panels are disposed in juxtaposition, the combination of, an elastic connection in said portions for securing said portions together,y said connection comprising parallel rows of stitch means spaced transversely of said seam and disposed in a direction along the length of said seam, the stitch means of said rows comprising loops spaced along the length of said seam, nested beaded means integral with said portions and interposed between said rows, and a thread passing loosely and alternately through the loops of said rows.
2. An elastic seam for use in a garment wherein adjacent panels have their weave disposed in a biased relation and marginal portions of said panels are disposed in juxtaposition, the combination of, an elastic connection in said portions for resiliently securing said portions together, said connection comprising parallel rows of stitch means spaced transversely of said seam and disposed in a direction along the length of said seam, th-e stitch means of said rows comprising loops spaced along the length of said seam, transversely curved resilient beaded means integral with said portions and interposed between said rows and extending longitudinally of said seams, and a thread passing alternately through the loops of said rows.
