THEODCRE- HAWLEY, OF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT.
wATE R- P ROOF wE-Arm NGf-AfPP R E`L- SPECIFICATION i forming part of Letters Patent No. 236,807, dated.' January 18, 1881.
Application filed May 17, 1880.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, THEoDoRE HAWLEY, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Water- Proof Wearing-Apparel; and I do hereby declare that the following. is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure l is a rear elevation of my improved water-proof coat, with the sleeves extended and portions in section, showing the air inlets or ducts; and Fig. 2 is a front elevation thereof.
This invention contemplates improvements in water proof wearing apparel, specially coats, having for its object their ventilation, to avoid the sweating of the wearer, and otherwise promote comfort; and it consists in the improvements hereinafter described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings, A marks the body of the coat, of any suitable water-proof material and suitably lined. In the upper part of the body or water-proof portion of the coat is an opening, B, extending continuously across the coat, in the back, from each side of the front opening of the coat, with the lower edge of the cape-shaped portion, C, thus formed lapping the upper edge of the opening B, to perfectly exclude the rain, or water, or snow beating against it, while the cape is connected or held to the coat below said edge of said opening by straps or loops a, with one end fastened in under and to the cape, and the other ends slipped or put over buttons b on the coat, and concealed or hid from view by the lapping portion of the cape. A supplemental lining, D, has its lower edge fastened or sewed about at the lower edge of the opening B, with its other edge sewed to the lower edge of the collar, to provide an air-space between it and the cape C.
Upon the' shoulders,just at the sleevesockets, are additionalopenings, E, with la'pping portions F, for excluding the driving rain, &o., which, with the opening B, fur- (No model.)
vnish inlets for air into the air-space between the supplemental lining and cape C, and thus keep that portion of the body of the wearer (the shoulders) which the coat lits tightly cool, to prevent sweating, which would otherwise occur, and thereby add to the comfort of the wearer.
F F are the sleeves, with their upper ends connected, by some porous or text-ile mate- 6o rial, F', to the supplemental lining D, While covering the porous portions F of the sleeves are separate continuations F2 of the sleeves, which overlap andV are buttoned or strapped to the sleeves proper. This arrangement is to ventilate and cool the arms at the body, where, without this provision, they are liable to become overheated and perspire.
The pockets, of which one is represented at Gr in Fig. 2, have a slit-opening, g, which is 7o provided with corded gores g', that may be either separately covered with rubber and fastened to the coat, or the cord may be inserted under and sewed up in the rubber fabric. The bottom of the pocket proper is connected, by a piece of elastic fabric, h, with the coat fabric, on the inside, in such tn anner that the fabric h will draw the pocket close up against the side of the coat when it (the pocket) is empty, while the corded gores will 8o prevent water entering from the outslde.
The tail end of the coat is provided with a V-shaped gore, instead of being left open.
The lapel of one side of the coat is formed with an extension, H, which is capable of be- 8 5 ing turned down upon the coat with the turning down of the lapel, when out of use, and is provided with rubber or rubber covered loops it', embedded in each upper corner thereof, and are adapted to t over buttons jj on 9o other cuffs, I', of the sleeves turn 0E the water. roo
One or both the front edges of the coat are corded, as shown at m, and on one side are the buttons b', while on the other side are coinciding rubber-coated loops k, thus avoiding the cutting of button holes through, and thereby weakening the fabric. It' desired,
5 the loops and buttons may be covered by a ap reaching from top to bottom and secured on one of the corded front sides of the coat.
I claim as my improvement and desire to secure by Letters Patent ofthe United States- 1. The water proof ventilatve overeoat composed of the skirt A, With its porous sup- Yplemental lining or extension D, cape C, extending down over said lining, sleeves 1", connected by porous fabric F' to the supplemental lining or porous extension D, and overlapping x 5 shoulder-pieces F2, as set forth.
2. Tho V-shaped gore, in combination with the tail end of the coat, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as zo my own I have hereto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
THEODORE HAWLEY.
