' DRESS SHIELD Filed Ju'ne 21; 1957 :inventor y (Ittorneg Patented July 11, 1939 DRESS SHIELD Le Roy Eisenberg, Flushing, N. Y., assignor to I. B. Kleinert Rubber Company, New York N. Y., a corporation of New -York f Application June 21, 1937, Serial No.114'9,330
3 Claims.
This invention frelates to dress shields'. rDress shield manufacturers. who guarantee the protective qualities of their shields require as a shields are thus attached by safety pins, they have a tendency to curl in such manner that the protective area of the shieldsis reduced to a triangular section substantially equivalent to that formed by lines extending from each of the upper points of the shield to the 'point at the center of the bottom of the flap which is attached to the garment. Shields which are thus attached to the garment so that they curl as just described and thereby reduce the protective area are not guaranteed by the manufacturer.
One object of the present invention, therefore, is, to provide a dress shield. which, although fastened to the garment by safety pins in the manner hereinbefore ldescribed will, nevertheless, ail'ord proper protection.
Another object of the invention is to provide a dress shield with `improved means for facilitating the attachment thereof to the garment.
Yet another object of the invention is generally to improve the construction of dress shields and to kfacilitate the attachment thereof to the garment.
The above objects ofthe invention will be fully understood from the following description considered with reference to the accompanying drawing which shows the preferred embodiment of the invention.
In the drawing: Fig. 1 is a side view of a dress shield embodying the present invention;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional view'on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Referring now more particularly to the drawing, the dress shield made in accordance with the 5c present invention comprises, as usual two sections l and 2 having an upper concave edge 3. Said sections are united at said edge and are otherwise separable. Section I, as here shown, is larger than section 2 and is intended to be positioned adjacent the body while section 2 is intended to be positioned adjacent the-arm. Said sections comprise two crescent shaped flaps l0 and I2 made of rubbercr rubber compounds or of any other suitable water-proof material and attached at their upper concaveA edges I4 in the 5 usual manner as by av cut-seeming operation when said flaps are made of rubberor certain rubber compounds, l Flaps I 0 and I2 are disposed between cloth flaps comprising layers lli-I8 and f cloth flaps comprising layers 2U-22, vrespective- 1 ly. Flap layers` I8 and 22 are stitched together at the upper concave edge of the shield by a line of stitching 24, and flap layersIS and 20 are folded outwardly to provide av tab 26 disposed between shield sections I and 2 adjacent the upper 5 concave edge thereof for the full' length of the latter. Said tab is stitched at its upper edge by a line of stitching 28 and at its lower edge by a line of over-edge zig-zag stitching 30. The outer y edges of companion cloth flap layers I6I8 and 20 2li- 22, are stitched by lines of over-edge zig- zag stitching 32 and 34 respectively.
The cloth flaps instead of being substantially co-extensive with the Water-proof flaps, as heretofore, are extended beyond the lower edges of said water-proof flaps. Thus, as illlustrated in the drawing, the 'cloth flaps have lower portions 36 and 38 which extend beyond the lower edges 40 and 42, respectively, of their companion waterproof flaps. As clearly shown in the drawing. the 30 cloth flap of each vsection has convexly curved `side edges extending fromthe opposite ends, respectively, of concave edge 3 along converging lines throughout their extent to the 'tips of said sections whereby said sections are approximately triangular, so that when said sections are pinned to the garment at said tips and at the opposite ends of said concave edge the lines of pullbetween the tips and said ends are sumciently close to said convexly curved edges, respectively, to prevent substantially curling of the sections of the shield, 'Ihe dress shield of this construction may be attached to the garment by safety pins, one at each upper point at the side edges of the shield and one at each central point at the bottom 45 edge of each flap, and when so attached afford adequate protection as the flaps do not curl. Furthermore, the extended flap portions facilitate the fastening of the safety pins or other fasteners therefrom because of the absence of the water- 50 proof material in these portions of the shield. The attachment of the safety pins at the upper points of the shield' is facilitated by the provision of the tab 26 which permits the ready and convenient attachment of the safety pins thereto instead of through the water-proof ilapsl or through special tabs as heretofore some times provided with the view of facilitating the attachment of the dress shields to the garments.
Thus it is seen that the dress shield herein shown and described is well adapted to accomplish the several objects oi the present invention. It will be understood, however, that certain changesin the construction and arrangement of parts may be made in the dress shield herein specifically shown and described. vTherefore, I do not wish to be limited precisely to the present construction, except as maybe required by the appended claims considered with reference to the prior art.
Having thus described my invention, what I" claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A garment shield of the kind described having an upper concave edge and comprising two sections united at said concave edge and otherwise separable from each other, each of said sections including an inner waterproof iiap and an outer cloth iiap, each cloth iiap of said two sections comprising opposed layers between which the companion waterproof. ilap is disposed and thereby covered, said opposed layers of the cloth ilap oi one oi. said sections extending beyond the lower edge of its companion waterproof iap to provide for pinning the lower tip of the former above its lower edge without penetration of the waterproof flap by the pin, said last mentioned cloth ap having convexly curved side edges extending from the opposite ends, respectively, of said concave edge along converging lines throughout their extent to said tip thereof whereby said last mentioned section is approximately triangular so that when it is pinned to the garment at said tip and at the opposite ends of said concave edge the lines of pull between the tip and said vends are sufliciently close to said convexly curved edges, respectively, to prevent substantially curling of said last mentioned section.
2. A garment shield of the kind described having an upper concave edge and comprising two sections united at said concave edge and otherwise separable from each other, each of said sections including an inner waterproof ap and an outer cloth flap, each cloth ilap of said two seotions comprising opposed layers between which the companion waterproof iiap is disposed and thereby covered, one oi said sections being substantially longer than the other, the opposed layers of the cloth ap of said longer section extending beyond the lower edge of its companion waterproof ilap to provide for pinning the lower tip of the former above its lower edge without penetration of the waterproof flap by the pin. said last mentioned cloth ap having convexly curved side edges extending from the opposite ends, respectively, of said concave edge along converging lines throughout their extent to said tip thereof whereby said last mentioned section 'is approximately triangular so that when it is pinned to the garment atsaid tip and at the opposite ends of said concave edge the lines of pull between the tip and said ends are sumciently close to said convexly curved edges, respectively, to prevent substantially curling of said last mentioned section, the opposed layers of said cloth flaps being stitched together at said convexly curved edges thereof throughout their extent and to the a'ljacent edges of the companion waterproof ap except at said portion of the ap which extends beyond the waterproof iiap.
3. A garment shield of the kind described having an upper concave edge and comprising two sections united at said concave edge and otherwise separable from each other, each of said sections including an inner waterproof ilap and an outer cloth iiap, each cloth ap of said two sections comprising opposed layers between which the companion waterproof ap is disposed and thereby covered, one of said sections being substantially longer than the other, the opposed layers of the cloth iiaps of each of said sections extending beyond the lower edge of its companio'n waterproof flap to provide for pinning the `lower tips of the cloth iiaps above their lower edgeswithout penetration of the waterproof flaps by the pins, each of said cloth iiaps having convexly curved side edges extending from the opposite ends, respectively, of said concave edge along converging lines throughout their extent to said tips whereby each of said sections is approximately `triangular so that when it is pinned to the garment at said tip and at the opposite ends of said concave edge the lines of pull between the tip and said ends are suiliciently close to said convexly curved edges, respectively, to prevent substantially curling of said flaps, the opposed layers of said cloth flaps being stitched together at said convexly curved edges thereof and to the adjacent edges of the companion waterproof ap except at said portion of the flap which extends beyond the waterproof ap.
