2 Claims.
This invention relates to devices for assisting in determining the proper length of a dress or skirt, to be hereinafter referred to as a skirt. Ihe invention is intended to facilitate the marking of material of the skirt to indicate the lower edge of the hem of the skirt when it is finished.
It is an object of this invention to provide a support for the indicator and to provide means by which the indicator can be adjusted vertically of the support so that the distance of the hem from the floor may be determined; means being provided for holding the indicator at different positions of adjustment with relation to the base of the device.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a guide which will act as a support for a marking instrumentality such as chalk, or the like, which can be moved around the indicator in contact therewith, or the marking instrumentality may be moved in contact with the material of the skirt by employing the indicator as a guide without the marking instrumentality actually engaging the indicator.
It is an object furthermore of the invention to provide a sectional indicator pivotally supported, the said sections being mounted to be separated so that a person wearing the skirt may be stationed within the area encompassed by the indicator, after which the sections may be moved into contact with the material of the skirt and appropriately held while the marking operation progresses.
It is a further object of the invention to produce a device of the character indicated which is simple in construction and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture and maintain.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the details of construction, and in the arrangement and combination of parts to be hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this application, wherein like characters denote corresponding parts in the several views, and in which- Figure 1 illustrates a plan view of the invention;
Figure 2 illustrates a view in elevation of the base, standard, and indicator mounting;
Figure 3 illustrates a plan view of fragments of the sections of the indicator broken away at the joint therebetween and illustrating a latch by which the parts are held assembled;
Figure 4 illustrates a plan view of the base and standard-supporting arm, with the standard in section;
Figure 5 illustrates a plan view of the standard and the support for the indicators mounted on the standard;
Figure 6 illustrates a sectional view on the line 8-6 of Fig. 5; and
Figure 7 illustrates a sectional view on the line T'I of Fig. 5.
In the drawing Ill denotes a base which is of appropriate weight to prevent tilting of the apparatus when in position for use. An arm II is preferably integral with the base and a standard I2 is preferably threaded in the arm, and the said standard is provided with appropriate graduations, as illustrated in Fig. 2, so that the position of the indicators with relation to the platform or support on which the garment wearer is stationed may be determined.
The indicators comprise two coacting curved arms 13 and M, each preferably threaded at one end in a block, such as l5, and each of said blocks has an apertured lug I6 projecting into a space between lugs I7 and I8 of a member I!) having a sleeve 2!), through which the standard projects, and the sleeve is held at different positions of adjustment on the standard by a friction member 2|, such as a set screw or the like. By reason of the fact that the indicating members are pivotally connected to the sleeve, they may swing horizontally into separated relation to each other in order that a person wearing the skirt maybe positioned so that when the indicatin members are swung and their free ends are in juxtaposition or contact, they will embrace the skirt and permit the manipulation of the marking instrumentality in order that the material can be marked for the purpose indicated.
It is shown in the drawing that the member I 3 is hollow and it is in the nature of a tube. The member It has a pin 22 located in its end, which pin projects into the tubular member 13. If desired, a latch such as 23 may be anchored on the member [4 to engage the pin for retaining the members l3 and I4 together, or the pin may frictionally engage the member l3, under certain conditions.
It is believed that the description of the functions of the several parts of the device as recited with the description of the several parts themselves will enable those skilled in the art to understand the invention and appreciate the practical advantages arising from the use of the invention.
I claim:
1. In a skirt marker, a base having an arm, a graduated standard supported by the arm, a member having a sleeve slidable on the arm, means for securing the slidable member in different positions of adjustment, blocks pivotally connected to the member having the sleeve, and curved arms each having a threaded connection .with one of the blocks, one of the said arms having a pin projecting from its free end and adapted to coact with the end of the other arm when said arms are in operative position.
2. In a skirt marker, a base having an arm, a v
