3 Claims.
This invention relates to a coatand particularly to one adapted to be worn in cold weather by those engaged in out-of-doors work or chores and for instance by soldiers, watchmen, railroad fiagmen, hunters and the like, and it aims to provide a construction which will accommodate within the enclosure thereof, a suitable heating means and which will enable the user to sit as well as stand while wearing the garment It is an important object to provide such a garment whose body employs a plurality of hoops or the like which are brought into close proximity when the garment is folded or collapsed from below and which enables the support of the hoops from one shoulder of the wearer so that the gar ment may be worn raised or collapsed, as in mod erate weather.
I further aim to provide a construction.pref.- erably having a sleeve for one arm and being en closed and enlarged so as to hang with the other arm enclosed within the body of the garment, and also to provide an opening, preferably closed by a slider fastener, to enable the latter arm to be extended exteriorly of the garment when desired.
In addition, it is aimed to provide novel means for the ready attachment and detachment of the hoops, to enable the garment to be washed.
Further, it is aimed to provide means whereby the garment may be secured with the hoops in position against lowering or collapse when folded.
The more specific objects and advantages will become apparent from a consideration of the description following taken in connection with accompanying drawings illustrating an operative embodiment.
In said drawings:
Figure 1 is a view in elevation illustrating the use of the garment on a wearer in collapsed or raised condition;
Figure 2 is a view similar to Figure l but with the garment lowered or in normal position;
Figure 3 is a top or plan view of the garment;
Figure 4 is a horizontal section taken on the line 4-4 of Figure 2;
Figure 5 is a detail horizontal section taken on the line 55 of Figure 1;
Figure 6 is a detail section taken on the line 8-6 of Figure 2;
Figure "I is a fragmentary, partially sectioned, elevation of the lower portion of a coat of modifled form; and
Figure 8 is a detail section taken on the line 8--8 of Figure 7.
like reference characters designate like or similar parts, the coat as a whole is" designated ill and adapted to be made from any suitable cloth-or other material, preferably such as will well retain heat beneath the same to warm the body of the wearer. The body It) may be made in any de-.- sired size. Such body is tubular, being open at the lower end whereby in applying it, it will be lowered or' slipped over the head of the wearer. At the-top, a neck openin isprovided within a suitable collar H,'preferably of an elastic c'o'n' struction,-and from which opening an extension opening is provided preferably adapted to "be opened and' closed by a conventional slide fastener or zipper at l2.
A'single arm isprovided at 13 which is for'the right arm in the case of a right-handed man and which in the case of a-left-handed man would be provided at the opposite side of the: garment. The usual second arm, however, is omitted and the garment is closed across the shoulder and otherwise completely around such arm. As a re sult; considerable space is provided within the garment for locomotion and for enabling the wearer to sit as well as to stand while wearing the garment. In addition, the space within the garment is provided to accommodate any suitable form of heater, which for instance may be a lantern M, which will function not only as a heater as in Figure 2 but as a lantern for lighting means as desired as in Figure 1.
In order to enable thenormally enclosed arm, left arm as shown for instance, to be projected to the exterior of the garment to handle or fire a rifle or gun 14 or to perform any other service, work, or chore, an opening is provided in the front of the garment or at any other suitable location, for this purpose and the same is preferably closed by a slide fastener or zipper" or the equivalent as at 15.
Attention is called to the fact that the zippers or slide fasteners l2 and I5 are preferably of the types which have parts operating on the interior as well as the exterior thereof as suggested in Figure 5, in order to provide very effective closures against the escape of heat or entrance of cold and also to afford minimum danger of faulty operation of the slide fasteners.
At suitable elevations, and in any desired humber, hoops l6 are provided about the coat. These hoops may be round, ellipsoidal, oblong, or of any desired shape. Such hoops serve to shape the garment to give maximum space for walking and operation of the heating means and arm beneath the garment and the also enable the garment to be raised with the hoops and adjacent portions of the garment supported from one shoulder as suggested in Figure 1.
Said hoops l6 are preferably removably attached to the body I in order that they may be removed to facilitate washing the garment. To this end, such hoops I 6 are split, and are threaded through an opening provided by a strip of fabric or cloth 22, for instance similar to that from which the body I0 is made, stitched to the latter as at 23, above and below the hoop. Such strips 22 are discontinuous in order to provide an opening or slot 24 to enable insertion and removal, it being clear that the hoops are disaligned at the split, in order to facilitate the threading thereof incidental to insertion and removal.
Attention is called to the fact that the back of body ID of the garment may be made of any desired shape and particularly enlarged or bulged as at 24 in order to accommodate or fit over a pack,- knapsack, or the like at 25 which may be worn by the wearer, particularly in the case of a soldier.
The garment usually will be of such length as itoxtend from the neck of the wearer to the round or approximately to the latter, as shown in the drawings. At the lower edge, a fabric or clothof the garment is turned inwardly as a hem over and above the lowermost strip 22 and above the latter, preferably being stitched at 26 to the cloth or fabric of the coat proper. As a result, stitching 26 may be removed and the hem adjusted to lengthen or shorten the garment, depending on the height of the wearer, and again stitched to the cloth or fabric of the garment.
In some instances the body H) at its lower extremity may be enlarged as by flaring the same outwardly as shown at H) in Figure 7. This provides more space within the garment to accommodate the lantern I4, stove, or other heating means or article. In this form I may use a difierent or modified means for holding the hoops in place. In this instance, the hoops are designated IS, the same being metallic or of plastic material, as in the previous form, although any material may be used, bolts 24 preferably passing removably through the hoops l6 and removably through the body Ill of the garment.
Various changes may be resorted to provided that they fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
I claim as my invention:
1. A coat of the class described, having means to accommodate extension of one arm of the wearer therethrough, said coat having hoop means around the same, said hoop means together with the portions of the coat adjacent the same being arranged for collapse and disposition for support from the shoulder adjacent the other arm of the wearer, said hoop means consisting of split hoops, and discontinuous means around the garment removably mounting said hoops.
2. A coat of the class described, the body of said coat having a sleeve, said body at the normal location for a second sleeve having a full region, such region extending below said location, said body at a location remote to the first mentioned location having an opening to enable the arm at the first-mentioned location to be extended to the exterior, and hoop means about the body enabling movement of the same and adjacent portions of the body to collapsed position for support on the shoulder of the Wearer at the first-mentioned location.
3. A coat of the class described, the body of said coat having a sleeve, said body at th normal location for a second sleeve having a full region, such region extending below said location, and hoop means about the body enabling movement of the same and adjacent portions of the body to collapsed position for support on the shoulder of the wearer at the first-men tioned location.
