means for tightening it across the back at the wrist and means for tightening the gauntlet at the top or open end.
Another object is to provide such a mitten with means for re-inforcing the gauntlet at its sides, so as to enable it to maintain its shape normally and yet permit the tightening mentioned.
With these and other objects in View, my invention consists in the construction, arrangement and combination of the various parts of my device whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Figure 1 is a plan view of the front of a mitten embodying my invention.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the back of the same mitten.
Figure 3 is a sectional View taken on the line 3---3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4. is a sectional view taken on the line 4--4 of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 55 of Figure 2.
Figure 6 is a plan view of the front of part of a slightly modified form of mitten, and
Figure 7 is a sectional View taken on the line ll of Figure 6.
In the drawings, I have shown a mitten having a hand-receiving portion I0 and a cuff or gauntlet II.
An important feature is the shape of the mitten whereby the hand portion gradually becomes slightly wider toward the wrist line, as clearly illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. This makes it possible for the hand portion to properly fit the fingers and yet permits the hand to be slipped through the wrist portion without any difficulty. Especially in childrens mittens this is a matter of considerable importance. By using this pattern I am able to use tight-woven and waterrepellant material for making the hand portion Ill and the cuff or gauntlet portion II, and the complete mitten will snugly fit the hand. Heretofore it has been the practice, particularly with childrens mittens, to make them of relatively loose woven material or of leather with a wrist portion so small that it was difiicult to insert the hand. The advantages of making mittens of closely-woven, water-repellant material are obvious.
My mitten is provided with some suitable means for tightening it across the back, at the wrist section. As illustrated in Fig. 2 I have shown straps l2 and 13 secured to the mitten at the sides thereof and provided with a buckle so that the mitten can be tightened at the wrist on the back side so as to leave the front smooth. With this kind of mitten the wearer can close the hand without binding of the fingers. Any other suitable means for tightening the mitten at the wrist portion at the back may be employed.
This pattern makes it possible to use nonstretchable material and yet cause the mitten to be contracted at the Wrist for holding it on while allowing perfect freedom of the hand when closing the fingers, and keeping the front portion of the mitten smooth.
The cuff or gauntlet portion II is made of soft, flexible material and I provide at the top a pair of straps l4 and I5, one of which has a buckle I6. Such a gauntlet can be tightened around the sleeve of the coat for preventing snow and cold air from getting into the mitten, which is an important feature for children and for sportswear.
I may provide an elastic gore I! in the cuff or gauntlet for preventing the gauntlet from being stretched when pulling it over the coat sleeve.
The gauntlet of soft flexible material is pro-- vided with reinforcing means at the side edges to hold the cuff from falling down. One way of doing this is by providing seams l8 near the side edges to provide pockets l9 to receive strips 20 of suitable material, such as Celluloid.
In Figure 6 I have provided another means for stiffening the cuff at the sides. The edges of the material are turned in as indicated at 2|, and I bind these inturned edges with a folded-over strip of soft leather 22.
In Figure 6 I have also shown a slightly different way of contracting the cuff at the top. I have shown the strips 23 and 24 with snap elements 25 adapted to coact with snap elements 26 on the top of the back of the gauntlet.
It will thus be seen that I have provided a mitten having many advantages, particularly for children and sportswear. Non-stretchable fabric can be used for making a mitten into which single piece of material folded over as illustrated in Figure 5, with a seam extending down one side and around the ends o f'the fingers. This seam is illustrated in Figure 4.
It is obvious that changes may be made in the Y details of the structure of themitten and it is my intention to cover by my claims any modifications which may be reasonably included within their scope and the scope of the invention without sacrificing any of the advantages thereof.
I claim as my invention: a
1. In a mitten, a hand-receiving portion tapering outwardly from the finger-holding portion to the wrist line, a gauntlet of flexible material joining the hand-receiving portion at the wrist'line, said gauntlet tapering outwardly from the wrist line, said gauntlet having a portion thereof formed of elastic material, said elastic material extending the length of the gauntlet, means for tightening the mitten at the wrist line, and means for tightening the mitten at the top of the gauntlet. r
2. In a mitten, a hand-receiving portion, made of close-woven, non-stretchable, water-repellant material, said hand-receiving portion tapering outwardly from the finger-holding portion to the wrist line, a'gauntlet of flexible material joining the hand-receiving portion at the wrist line, said from the wrist line, means for tightening the mitten at the wright line, and means for tight- 4 gauntlet tapering outwardly from the wrist line, said gauntlet having a portion thereof formed of elastic material, said elastic material extending the length of the gauntlet, means for tightening the mitten at the wrist line, and means for tightening the mitten at the top of the gauntlet.
3. In a mitten, a hand-receiving portion made of close-woven, non-stretchable, water-repellant material, said hand-receiving portion, having a width at the finger-holding portion substantially the width of the fingers, said hand-receiving portion tapering outwardly from the finger-receiving portion to a width at the wristllnersubstantially wider than the hand, a gauntlet of flexible material joining the hand-receiving portion at the wrist line, said gauntlet tapering outwardly ening the mitten at the top of the gauntlet.
