Description
SAMUEL C. MOORE, OF PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND.
HOOP FOR SKELETON SKIRTS.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 25,029, dated August 9', 1859,
T o all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, SAMUEL C. MOORE, of the city and county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented a new, useful, and Improved Skirt-Hoop for Ladies Dresses; and I do hereby declare that the same is described and represented in the following specifications and drawings.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention I will proceed to describe its construction and the mode of using it, referring to the drawings, in which the same letters indicate like parts in each of the figures.
Figures l, and 2, are a plan and elevation of one of my improved hoops. Figs. 3, and 4, show different modes of fastening the ends. Fig. 5, a straight piece.
The nature of my invention and improvement consists m an improved hoop, made of thin sheet metal corrugated, so that the folds or wrinkles run lengthwise of the strip of metal forming the hoop. By corrugating the strip of metal which is to form the hoop it may be made of about one half the weight and thickness that would be required if it were not corrugated;
hence one half of the metal is saved by my invention, and a far lighter, better and cheaper hoop supplied to the public.
In the accompanying drawing A, is a hoop made of thin sheet metal corrugated as shown in sections at the ends of Figs. 3, 4, and 5, the ends of this hoop are fastened together by a short sleeve or tube B, into which tube the ends are inserted and may be fastened by pinching or hammering the ends of the tube together, so as to bind the ends of the hoop. If preferred the ends may be fastened together Without a sleeve to corrugate it as desired. It is then ready to have its ends joined to form a hoop as above mentioned.
The advantages of my invention are first a saving of about one-half the weight of metal to make a hoop of a given stiffness; second the hoops are much lighter and load the person of the wearer less. Third-the cost of the hoop is lessened in about the same proportion as its weight is reduced, it is less liable to be crooked in wearing, and more readily and easily straightened when crooked than the hoops which are not corrugated.
I believe I have described and represented the improved skirt hoop which I have invented, so as to enable any person skilled in the art to make and use it.
I will now state what I desire to secure by Letters Patent to wit.
I claim the corrugated sheet metal hoop for ladies skirts described, as a new article of manufacture.
SAMUEL C. MOORE.
