1. De VER WARNER 8v J. O. TALLMAN- Gors-et Stiffener.
- No. 234,757. Patented Nov. 23,1880.
UNITED STATES PATENT FFICE.
IRA DE VER \VARNER AND JOHN G. TALLMAN, OF BRIDGEPORT, CONN.
CORSET-STIFFENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 234,757, dated November 23, 1880.
Application filed October 26, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom z't may concern Beit known that we, IRA D. V. WARNER and JOHN G. TALLMAN, of the city of Bridgeport, Fairfield county, Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stifieners for Corsets, of which the following is a specification.
The object of our invention is a spring corset-stifiener consisting of a blade or rib composed of tempered Tampico fibers condensed and bound together by an external binding, as hereinafter fully described, so as to constitute a substitute forthe ordinary whalebone and horn ribs used for imparting rigidity to corsets by inserting the same in pockets prepared for their reception.
In the drawings, Figure 1 illustrates different modes of binding together by means of threads a number of Tampico fibers to form a stiffener. Fig. 2 is a view illustrating a stiffener of a difierent shape; Fig. 3, a view illustrating a mode of making stifi'eners.
In making our improved stiffener we collect together a number of Tampico fibers, a, and condense the same into a compact form, round or fiat, as may be desired,and then confine the whole by an external binding, so as to constitute a single rib or blade adapted to be inserted in the pocket of a corset, in the same manner as an ordinary whalebone or horn rib.
At any stage in the manufacture the Tampico strips are subjected to the action of heat, in addition to the pressure employed, and are thereby rendered more elastic and durable, or, as we have commonly termed it, tempered.
Various modes of bundling together the stalks maybe adopted. For instance, the stalks a may be bound together by an outer wrapper formed by winding, plaiting, or braiding threads around the same, as shown in Fig. 1,
or metalbands 6, Fig. 2, may be used to bind together the stalks or they may be connected by any other suitable external binding.
A sizing of starch or other suitable material, soluble or insoluble, may be applied to the binder, which sizing imparts additional stiffness, and, when cotton binding is employed, secures the threads in place and serves to hold. the stalks more firmly and solidly together.
The bundle may be flattened after the binding is applied, or the stalks may be collected in proper form and then bound.
A convenient mode of subjecting the Tampioo to heat and pressure to temper and condense the bundle of stalks is to pass a number of such stalks sufficient to form a rib of the proper size between heated rolls, grooved 0r flat, according to the form of rib to be made. We do not, however, here make any claim to this mode of manufacture, nor broadly to bundling a number of stalks to form a stiifener, as the same forms the subject of another application for Letters Patent; but we describe it as one mode illustrating a means of making the article. Various other modes of efi'ecting the same result may, however, be used.
We claim As a new article of manufacture, a spring corset stifi'ener or rib composed of a number of Tampico fibers condensed and tempered and held together by an exterior binding, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
