SHIRT RETAINER Philip Krupin, Orange, N. J.
Application February 23, 1954, Serial No. 411,632
1 Claim. (Cl. 2323) The present invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in a retainer which is expressly designed and adapted to hold the lower front portion of a mans shirt in a neat and more desirable manner relative to the co-operating waist band of the trousers, whereby it is thus prevented from crawling up and overhanging the waist band in an unsightly and therefore unkempt manner.
A general object of the invention is to structurally, functionally and otherwise improve upon prior art devices in the field of endeavor under consideration and, in so doing, to better satisfy the requirements of manufacturers and the needs of users who find it necessary to resort to the use of the stated type of retainer.
Another object of this invention is to provide an accessory or retainer for a shirt which is highly simple in construction, is readily applicable and removable, reliable for the purposes intended, and otherwise suited to the general needs of users.
In carrying out a preferred embodiment of the invention a simple and economical elastic strap is provided, said strap being provided on its upper end with a nonelastic tab and said tab having a buttonhole to engage releasably over a co-operating button on the wearers shirt. A readily appliable and removable clasp is provided and this is detachably and adjustably mounted on the strap, said clasp being provided with a safety pin which is connectible with the waist band of the wearers trousers.
Other objects, features and advantages will become more readily apparent from the following description and the accompanying sheet of illustrative drawings.
In the drawings, wherein like numerals are employed to designate like parts, throughout the views:
Figure l is a front elevation showing a fragmentary portion of a shirt and trousers and illustrating in full and dotted lines, the improved retainer and the manner in which it is employed.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of one side of the retainer by itself.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the same from observing the reverse side thereof.
Figure 4 is a section on the vertical line 4-4 of Figure 1 looking in the direction of the arrow.
The shirt in Figure 1 is denoted by the numeral 6, the trousers at 8 and the waist band at 10. The lower or tail portion of the shirt is shown tucked into the trousers in the usual way and the shirt button which is here under consideration is denoted by the numeral 12.
"ice
The accessory orretainer comprises a relatively short elastic strap 14 and a non-elastic tab 16 which is stitched thereto as at 18, said tab having a buttonhole 20 which is releasably engageable with the button 12. A readily attachable and detachable clasp is denoted by the numeral 22. This comprises grips 24 and 26 hingedly connected together and gripping opposite sides of the band or strap.
This clasp is the type which is openable and closable and can be readily attached and detached and therefore used in an obvious manner similar to a clasp which is also used on mens suspenders. The safety pin is denoted by the numeral 28 and this is of any appropriate type and it is welded or otherwise secured as at 30 to the co-operating grip 24.
The manner of use is shown in Figures 1 and 2 where it will be seen that the safety pin is secured to the waistband and the buttonhole is secured to the bottom 12. Being of the utmost simplicity, the construction, objects, and manner of use are thought to be plain and an extended description is believed to be unnecessary.
From the foregoing, the construction and operation of the device will be readily understood and further explanation is believed to be unnecessary. However, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction shown and described, and accordingly all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the appended claim.
What is claimed as new is as follows:
A shirt hold-down retainer comprising a relatively short elastic strap separate and independent and adapted to assume functioning position between the overlapping buttoned front portions of a mans shirt and the usual co-operating waistband of a pair of trousers into which the bottom portion of said shirt is tucked in the usual manner, a non-elastic tab fastened to the upper end only of said strap and having a button-hole separably connectible with a selected button on said buttoned shirt portions, the other end of said strap being free and also free of complemental members, an openable and closable clasp adjustably and detachably mounted on said strap and applicable and removable by way of said free end, said clasp being in position at right angles to said strap, and embodying complemental grips engaged with a predetermined portion of said strap and a safety-pin fixed to one of said grips and designed for attachment to said waistband.
