CORSET.
SPECIFICATIONforming part of Letters Patent No. 319,715, dated June 9. 1885.
Application filed November 17`l 1F84.
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, JULIUs HILBORN, of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a new Improvement in Corsets; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in
Figure 1, a perspective view, a portion of one side broken away to show the back part of the corset; Fig. 2, the busks and adjacent edges of the front portions connected, and detached from the corset proper; Fig. .3, the lacing-strip and adjacent edges of the back portion detached, showing the elastic connections between the strips and said adjacent portions.
This invention relates to an improvement in corsets, having for its object to facilitate the hooking and unhooking of the corset at the front, as well as to prevent the accidental unhooking when on the person, and also to give a considerable degree of elasticity to the corset around the body; and the invention consists in a pair of busks at the front, the one provided with hooks, the other with eyes, the said busks connected to the adjacent edges of the body of the corset by elastic strips in line with each hook and eye, and also in providing the back with lacing-strips corresponding to the busks in front, and with like elastic connections between said strips and the adj acent edges of the body of the corset, and as more fully hereinafter described.
The general cut of the corset is immaterial to my invention, and may be woven complete or cut in any desirable form.
A represents one side at the front, and B the opposite side; CD, the two busks, the one provided with hooks a and the other with corresponding eyes, b, as in the usual construction of corset-busks.' 'Ihe busks are composed of steel in the usual manner, and are inclosed in a fabric covering. 'Ihe body of the corset at the front is cut, so that its edges stand alittle distance away from the respective busks. Across the space between the busks and the respective edges of the body of the (No model.)
corset, and in line with the several hooks and eyes, I make elastic connections d, leaving the space between the connections substantially open, thus providing an elastic connection between the busks and the body of the corset for each eye, each elastic connection being independent of the others.
As the corset is hooked around the person the elastic at the particular hook which is being engaged Will yield for such engagement, andthen contract to hold the eye in engage ment with the hook, and so on until all are hooked. rIhen when on the person any movement or bending of the body will produce a yielding of the elastic connections to such an extent as to prevent disengagement of the hooks and eyeswas, for instance, suppose the bending be of such a character as would naturally tend to loosen the bearing of the eye upon the hook, so much so as to, many times, disengage it, the spring-connection adjacent to the said hook and eye will contract as the body bends, to hold the eye in connection with its hook, and so on. When on the person, accidental disengagement of the hook and eye is practically impossible, and thus I produce, substantially, a lock-clasp without the complicated mechanism or unusual method of attachment usually employed or necessary in lock-clasps, and at the same time I attain the advantage of a considerable degree of elasticity in the corset around the body of the wearer.
At the back I provide two lacing-edges, E F, similar to the busks in front, each having eyelets in the usual manner for-lacing corsets, and in cutting the corset the two back portions, G G, are cnt so that their edges do not quite reach the lacing-strips E F, but leave a space between them in like manner as between the busks and the adjacent edges of the front; and across the spaces between the lacingstrips and the edges of the back portions I introduce spring-connections e, corresponding in position to the spring-connections d at the front, and so that the strain upon the velastic connections in front is communicated to the same elastic connections at the rear, bringing a direct strain entirely around the corset at the several connections.
ICG
The spaces ande'lastic connections may be omitted at the rear, the two back portions being connected by lacings in the usual manner.
I claim-.-
1. A corset having the busks C D, the one provided with hooks and the other with corresponding eyes, the front portions, A B, cut to leave a space between their front edge and their respective busks C D, the said busks connected with the adjacent edges of the respective parts A B of the body of the corset across said space by elastic strips d, the said elastic strips arranged in line with the re spective hooks and eyes on the busks, substantially as described.
2. A corset having the busks C D, the one Vprovided with hooks and the other with corresponding eyes, the front portions, A B, cit
to leave a space between their front edge and their respective busks C D, the said busks connected with the adjacent edges of the respective parts A B of the body of the corset across said space by elastic strips d, the said elastic strips arranged in .line with the respective hooks and eyes on the busks, and the back provided with lacing-strips E F, the back portions, G G, Acut to leave a space between said lacing-strips and the adjacent edges of the back portions, the said lacing-strips united to the back portions by elastic connections e, corresponding to the elastic connections d at the front, substantially as described.
JULIUS HILBORN.
