SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 244,573, dated July 19, 1881. Application file d January 8, 1881. (ModeL) To all whom 'it may concerto:
Be it known that I, DAVID H; FANNING, of
Worcester, county of Worcester, and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Corsets, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification.
This invention relates to corsets, and has for its object to provide a very stiff corset at and along the central portion of the corset at its sides.
My invention consists in making the sides of the corset at its central portion of three or more thicknesses or layers of cloth stitched [5 together to form at least two series of pockets, one above the other, to receive at least two series of superimposed bones or stiffeningstrips, each bone being in a separate pocket. In this instance of my invention I have shown the stiifened sides of the corset containing vertical bones as not extended to the bottom or to the top of the said corset at its sides; but above and below the top of the said stiffened side pieces I have placed and united into and so as to form part' of the corset suitable hip and arm-size strips or sections composed of several stiffenedlayers of cloth, preferably four or more such layers, held together by stitching or quilting.
Figure 1 represents, inside elevation, a sufficient portion of a'corset to illustrate my present invention. Fig. 2 is a section thereof on the line 00 as, and Fig. 3 is a partial vertical section taken through the arm-size section-on line y, it being understood-that a like view of the hip-section would show a like arrangement of layers of material, preferably cloth.
The front piece, a, and back piece, I), of the corset may be of any usual shape. The side 40 piece is divided up, as hereinafter described, so as to form a hip-strip, c, an arm-size section, d, and waist-section e.
The waist section 0 (see Fig. 2) is composed of three thicknesses of cloth stitched to- 4 5 gether at suitable intervals, as at 2, to form a double series'of pockets, 3 4, to receive independent bones or stifl'ening-strips f g, which are so inserted in the said independent pockets as to be superimposed one on the other,
thus giving additional stiffness to the waistsection and greatly reducing its liability to bend in a direction transverse to the length of the said bones f g. The waist-section e termto the stiffness of the said section 0.
I nates, it is seen, short of the lower and upper ends of the front and back pieces, a b.
At the lower end of the waist-section e, I
have placed what I denominate a hip-strip or section, the said section being composed of several thicknesses of cloth, preferably more than four thicknesses, stitched together, as at h, by numerous lines of stitches, thus adding The ends ofthe section 0 are connected or stitched to the front and back pieces, a b.
The arm-size section 01, composed in a like manner of several thicknesses or layers of cloth stitched together bynumerous linesiof stitches, (see sectional detail, Fig. 3,) is joined at its ends by stitches with the front and 'back pieces, a b.
.I may, if desired, employ between the outer and inner layers of cloth forming the hip-section it and thearm-size section at any usual well-known stifteningmaterial.
I claim- 1. In a corset having front and back pieces, a b, the waist-section provided with a parallel series of double pockets, and with two series of superimposed bonesor stiffenin g-strips, each inserted in its own independent pocket, substantially as described.
2. The front and back pieces, a I), of the corset and the stiffened waist section connected therewith, combined with the arm-size section, connected at its ends with the pieces a b, and at its lower edge with the waist-section, and stitched and stiffened, as shown and described.
3. The front and back pieces, a b, of the corset, combined with the stiffened waist-section and arm-size and hip sections connected with the-upper and lower edges of the said waistsection, and stitched and stiffened, as shown and described, the ends of the said waist, armsize, and hip sections being secured at their ends with the pieces a b, as shown and described.
4. The combination, in a corset, of a sheet of fabric with pockets on opposite sidesthereof containing stiffening-ribs.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to. this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
Witnesses: DAVID' H. FANNING.
