Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICEo DARlUS F. DRAKE, OF SOMERVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO ARTHUR G. DRAKE, OF HAMPDEN, MAINE.
IMPROVED COAT SLING 0R CARRIER.
Speciiication forming part of Letters Patent No. 37,029. dated Novenibt'r 25 1h62.
To (LZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DARIUS F. DRAKE, a citizen ofthe United States of America. and a resident of Somerville, in the, county of' Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have made an invention of an Improved Coat Sling or Carrier; and I do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the accompanying speci lication and represented in the accompanying drawing, which represents an elevation of it.
The article in question is-t'or the use of an army ofcer when iu the eld or ou duty, the purpose of the said article bei ug to support on the back ot' the ot'ticer a cloak and a blanket, or either, when in folded state.
My invention consists in a coat sling or carrier as made with a backbrace or bracestrap, combined with a back-plate and its shoulder-straps, and so slung or arranged below the back-plate as when lin use to go across the back ofthe wearer and below his shoulderblades, and t'rom'thenceupward underneath his arms and to the said shoulderstraps, and be connected thereto, as hereinafter explained.
In the drawings, A denotes the back-plate, which may be a piece ot' thick leather or other suitable material, ot' a rectangular shape, or thereabout. Vhen in use, it is intended to rest atwise on the back cfa person and across his shoulder-blades. It is provided with two shoulder-straps,` B B, which extend upward from it, and ai'eintended, respectively, to go over the shoulders of the person in order to suspend the back-plate therefrom. The eX- tremities ot' the straps are to be provided with buckles a a or other suitable fastenings for connecting the straps, respectively, with the two ends or halves ot' a backbrace strap, C,which, by means of two hangers or straps, D D, projecting downward from the back plate, 'is slung from the back-plate and so as to go across the back of the wearer at such a distance below his shoulder-blades as may be most comtortableor agreeable, each slingingstrap being so made or soapplied to the back- Vplate as to enable the distancebelow the backstrap from the lower edge ol` the backlplate to be adjusted, or increased or diminished, at pleasure. Two other straps, E E. provided with buckles b b, depend t'rom the back-plate near the slingingstraps D D, andare provided with tongue-straps F F, which are fastened to the upper part ot' the back-plate. The straps E lt) and F Fserve to contine the cloak, when in a folded state, to the backplate. The backbrace, arranged with respect to and applied to the backplate and its shoulder-straps as described, constitutes, when the cloak-carrier is in use, an additional support thereto. By going across the back at several inches below the back-plate, and by being buckled to the shoulder-straps, it operates not only to spread the shoulders and chest of the wearer,but does not impede the circulation of the blood in his arms, as do shoulder-straps when carried over and around the arms and buckled directly to the back-plate.
I claim as my invention- The said improved coat sling or carrier, as constructed with a brace-strap, C, combined with a baclbplate, A, and its shoulder-straps B B, and so slung or arranged below the said back-plate that the said strap C, when in use, will go across vthe back of the wearer and below his shoulder-blades, and thence underneath the arms and upward to the shoulderstraps B B, substantially as described.
D. F. DRAKE.
