2 Claim.
This invention relates to coats and the object is to provide a unitary garment adapted to be put on and off like an ordinary short coat and which. at least under one set of conditions of use, will provide a covering tightly bound to the body,
usually around the hips, to exclude air while preserving smooth exterior lines.
My invention will be well understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein I have shown by way of example certain illustrative embodiments of my invention. In these drawings:
Fi 1 is an interior view of a coat illustrative of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a view showing the same in use;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged section on the line 8-3 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is an enlarged section on the line ll of Fig. 2;
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 1 showing a modification;
Fig. 6 is a partial view similar to Fig. 1 and with part broken away showing a reversible 7 coat; and
'7 is an exterior view showing the coat turned inside out relatively to Fig. 6.
Referring now to Figs. 1 to 4 of the drawings, the coat there shown as an example of my invention embodies an outer shell 8, which for purposes of illustration we may assume to be of leather, having the general form of an ordinary short sleeved jacket with a relatively straight skirt portion, as illustrated in Fig. 2. This may be put on over the shoulders from the rear, as is a coat as distinguished from a garment going on over the head, and is provided with separable edge portions l0 adapted to be secured together by any convenient fastening means. I have herein shown this securing means as being a slide fastener [2 of the type popularly known as a zipper. The coat illustrated in Fig. 1 is formed with the usual marginal facings H on the inner side.
Within the shell is a lining l6 which by way of contrast I have indicated in Fig. 1 as being of textile fabric and in that particular figure is shown as sleeveless, extending over the body portion of the coat only. This lining may be secured permanently within the shell as by stitching to the facing l4 around the neck and parallel to the separable edges. Ill. Secured to the lower edge of the lining is a resiliently expansible band l8 which may be formed of knitted fabric having vertical wales and which is anchored at its ends in the seams uniting the lining Hi to thefacin I. The band, however, is free of any other substantial restraining connection with the portion of the outer shell 8 which overlies it. Thus in the form illustrated in Fig. 1 the lower edge ofthe lining formed by the band I8 is entirely disconnected from the skirt of the shell along the lower edge of the former except at the two extremities of the band. Theband l8 in its normal unstretched condition is substantially shorter than the overlying skirt portion of the shell, as is indicated in Fig. 1 by the folds or shirrings 0f the latter.
If the coat is put on and the edges l0 fastened together by manipulation of the zipper", as indicated in Fig. 2, the skirt portion of the outer shell will hang, as illustrated in that figure, with such fullness about the body as is provided for in its cut. The securing together of the separable edges ill of the coat at their lower portions, however, serves to unite the ends of the band l8, thus tensioning it in gripping relation about the body of the wearer at or about the location of the hips, as indicated by the dot and dash line It in Fig. 4, the lining it thus forming a loosely fitting covering about the body which is closely pressed thereto along its lower edge to prevent air from passing up within the coat from below.
The coat shown in Fig. 5 is in all respects similar to that shown in Fig. 1 except that the lining I6 is readily detachable, being secured to the facing H by a readily separable connection as distinguished from a permanent sewn seam, herein illustrated as a slide fastener or zipper 20. This fastener is shown as partially separated at the lower right-hand portion'of the figure.
In Figs. 6 and 7 I have illustrated a reversible coat having a shell corresponding to the shell 8 in Fig. 1, and which might, for instance, be of leather, and an inner shell I60, which might, for instance, be of gaberdine. In the example shown both shells have sleeves. These two shells are superposed, and to provide a garment of uniform appearance whichever side is outermost, their edges are joined at the extreme margins of the separable coat edges I00 rather than along lines spaced therefrom as in the case of Figs. 1 and 5. Suitable means adapted to be manipulated whichever way the coat is turned are provided for joining the edges, which means may take the form of a slide fastener or zipper I20 of the so-called reversible type.
The lower edge of the shell I60 is provided with the relatively short elastic band I80 anchored at its ends to the separable edges of the coat but free along its bottom edge from the edge of the shell II, as is indicated in Fig. 6 by the illustration of the hem ll at the bottom edge of the shell ll showing where the shell III is broken away.
If the garment in the position illustrated in I'lg. 6 is put on, the elect is substantially similar to that illustrated in Fig. 2. If, however, the coat is turned inside out as in l 'lg. 7 and put on in this manner. the appearance will be similar to certain types of sweaters as now known having elastic bands attheir lower portions, this band in its contracted gripping relation to the body being exposed. The lower edge of the shell II will be drawn together and held in shirred position beneath the band Ill which then overlies it on the outside. In a reversible coat such as is shown in Figs. 6 and 7, the inner and outer shells are preferably the same length, but since the edges of the two are separate except at the front edges I 0! the flaps, when the shell I" is used as the: outer or exposed face the elastic band I may be pulled down to overlap the bottom edge of the shell -ll which is then on the inside.
vI am aware that the invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof, and I therefore desire the present embodiment to be considered in all respects as'illustrative and not restrictive; reference being had to the appended claims rather than to the forecured together.
going description to, indicate the scope of the invention.
I claim:
1. A reversible coat comprising two superposed shells, each having separable edges and the shells being united along said edges, means for securing together said edges operable in either portion of inversion of the coat, the lower portion of one ofthe shells embodying a resiliently expansible band anchored at its ends to said edges and otherwise substantially free from the overlying portion of the other shell, the band being normally shorter than said overlying portion and adapted to be tensioned about the body of the wearer when the edges of the overlying part of the shell are secured together.
2. A coat comprising an outer shell and an inner lining, both open along the front to provide separable edges and adapted to be put on simultaneously over the shoulders from the back, the lower portion of the lining being tree of the skirt of the shell except adjacent the front opening of the shell where it is secured thereto and embodying a resiliently expansible band anchored at its ends to and extending between said edges, said band being normally shorter than the overlying-shell and adapted to be tensioned about the body of the wearer when the edges of the overlying part of the shell are se- 4 DAVID D.
