CORSET-BUSK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 263,895, dated September 5, 1882,
Application filed May 31. 1882.
5 in Corsets and Clasps therefor; and 1 do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to he a full, clear, and exact description of the same,
I o and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-
Figure 1, a front view of the husks Fig. 2,
a front view of the corset with the husk intro-,
duced; Fig. 3, a methodof cutting the busks :5 from sheet metal.
This invention relates to an improvement in corsets and clasps therefor. In the usual construction of corsets the clasps are formed of two steel parts, which run from the top to the bottom of the corset.-which are necessary to bring the front of the corset to the shape of the body. This makes a short bend at the waistline. The lower part of the husk extending down over the abdomen either causes discomfort to the wearer by the inward pressure,
or, if not fitting closely, wears the garments.
The object of my invention is to overcome this difficulty; and it consists in a husk for corsets, composed of two parts, each in a single 0 piece, the said two parts following the front or meeting edge of the two parts from the top to about the waist-line, thence curved respectively to the right and left down to the lower edge of the corset, and away from the meeting 5 edge; also, in a corset provided with such husks, having its meeting edges below the points where the busks diverge, provided with means for securing those edges together, as more fully hereinafter described.
The husk is made from steel, substantially two parts A B, each in a single continuous piece, and each from the top down to about the waist-line, are straight and of the usual form,
5. and provided with the usual fastening devices,
a. From about the waist-line the two are curved respectively to the right and left--that steels which form the busks and clasps.
(No model.)
The application of this husk is shown in Fig. 2. The parts are introduced into the respective parts E F of the corset from the upper edge down to the waist-line in the usual pocket; but from about the waist-line or at a point where the parts diverge correspondingly-curved pockets H I are formed, as indicated in Fig. 2, into which the respective branches or curved portions (3 D are inserted.
The central portion of the corset-that is, the part L N between the diverging parts of the huskn1ay be left open; but ll prefer to close it by flaps, as scenin Fig. 2,which are buttoned together at their meeting edges. Those meeting ed ges-hein g a continuation of the ed gesof the parts above, they may he buttoned or otherwise secured.
Another advantage of this construction of husk is that the short bend at the waist-line is avoided, because the line which the curve follows is nearly in the same plane with the husk at the waist-line.
' In order to form these busks without loss of metal, and so that they will be little, if any, more expensive than the common husks, Icut them from the sheet, as seen in Fig. 3,the inside curve heing'the same radius as the curve of the outside, and the angle or point of divergence following the central line, d, in the sheet-that is to say, the two edges of the steel or part are identically the same shape, so that a cutter made the shapeof one edge will out, say, the first line, 0; then, the sheet moved the width of one part, the same cutter makes the next out, f, and so on successively cutting parts from the sheet by a single cutter right and left, substantially as described.
3. A corset having the husk composed of closed by flaps LN, secured together, substantwo parts, each in a single continuous piece, tiaily as described.
the said parts respectively extending down the meeting edges from the top to about the ABNER HAIGH'L 5 waist-line, thence diverging respectively to Witnesses:
