UNITED STATES TPATENT OFFICE;
ROBERT BUTTEIMVORTH', OF SOMERVILLE, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO THE REVERSIBLE COLLAR COMPANY, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
SUPPLEMENTAL BOSOM.
fPECIFIC'ATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 371,668. dated October 18, 1887. Application filed July 5, 1887. Serial No. 243,342. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, ROBERT BUTTERWORTH, of Somerville, in the county of Middlesex, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Bosoms, of which the following is a description sufficiently full, clear, and exact to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which said invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a perspective view of my improved bosom; Fig. 2, a plan View of the band detached and opened; Fig. 3, a front elevation of the body of the bosom detached from the band; Fig. 4, a plan view showing the flange turned up to receive the band; Fig. 5, an end view of the body, showing the flange in position to receive the band; and Fig. 6,a diagram showing the method of uniting the parts.-
Like letters and figures of reference indicate corresponding parts in the drawings.
In the manufacture of false bosoms, more especially those composed of paper or clothfaced paper, much difficulty has heretofore been experienced in preventing the body of the bosom from wrinkling or puckering at or near the neck portion after the band is attached, and also in so forming and connecting the band and body as to prevent the exposure of raw or unfinished edges and cause the bosom to fit perfectly.
My invention is designed to obviate these difficulties or objections, and to that end I make use of means which will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters from the following explanation.
In the drawings, A represents the body of the bosom, and B the hand, these parts being composed of paper or cloth-faced paper. A curved piece is out from the upper portion of the body, to adapt it to fit the neck of the wearer, in the usual manner. A curved folding crease or indentation, w, is then made in the upper portion of the body,to assist in forming the flange m, said crease being approximately in parallelism with the curved upper edge of said body and at a distance therefrom corresponding with the width of the flange it is desired to produce.
To prevent the flange from pnckering and enable it to be bent outwardly at an angle to the body, a series of slits,f, are cut in it, as best seen in Figs. 3 and 5. A piece is also out centrally from the edge of the flange, to form an opening, cl, for the collar stud or button when the band is attached.
The band B consists ofa long slightly-curved strip composed of the same material as the bodyA,and provided withacentrally-arranged crease, t, which usually extends its entire length, as best shown in Fig. 2, but may stop short of the ends of the band, if desired, said crease dividing it into two members or halves, a a. The band is also provided with a pair of stud or button holes, Z, at each end, and another pair, 1), at the center, the members ofeach pair of said holes being so arranged with respect to each other as to register when the band is folded lengthwise through the center.
In attaching the band to the body the flange m is turned up at an angle to the body, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. The band is then folded on the crease z and placed over the flange m, as shown in Fig. 6, the members or halves a a composing the band being pressed closely together by hand or in any other convenient and suitable manner, after which the band is firmly attached to the body of the bosom by a row or series of stitches, g, which are passed through both of the members a a of the band and through the flange m, the stitching being extended to the ends of the band,in order to unite said members at or near their free or outer 8 edges, as shown in Fig. 1. The edges of the band from its ends to the points t may, however, be stitched together before'inserting the flange m in the band, if preferred, the flange being subsequently inserted and stitched thereto, as'shown and described; or, if preferred, the central portion of the band may be stitched to the flange and its ends left to be subsequently stitched.
The band being curved and double and the flange m curved and slit, as described, it will be obvious that the bosom will thereby be prevented from wrinkling or puckering around the neck portion and the raw edges of the flange and band covered or concealed, the up- 100 per edge of the band when attached to the bosom being uncut or smooth 5 also, by curving the band it will fit the neck of the wearer I body A, provided with the curved flange m, much better than a straight one would. having the slits f, in combination with the I do not confine myself to providing the band curved band B, provided with the stud or but- B with the crease i, or to constructing the body ton holes Z '0, said band being folded over said or band of any special material; neither do flange and its members attached thereto and I confine myself to attaching the band to the I to each other at or near their free edges by the body by stitches, as it may be pasted or cerow or series of stitches g, substantially as demented thereto and the edges of the band he scribed.
yond the bosom cemented together, if desired. ROBERT BUTTERWORTH.
Having thus explained my invention,what I Witnesses:
