OHRISTY M. A. CAMPBELL, OF OTTAWA, ONTARIO, CANADA.
DRESS-SHIELD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 374,040, dated N oveniber 29, 1887.
I Application filed September 16, 1887. Serial No. 249,847. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that I, OHRISTY M. A. CAMP- BELL, of Ottawa, in the Province of Ontario, Dominion of Canada, have invented certain newand useful Improvements in DressShields, 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 1 is a plan view of the ordinary shield folded; Fig. 2, a plan view of the arm and body pieces of the same/detached; Fig. 3, a perspective view of the ordinary shield; Fig. 4, a perspective view of my improved shield, the arm-piece being represented as depressed; Fig. 5, alike view, the arm-piecebeing represented as elevated; and Fig. 6, a plan view of the arm and body pieces of the same detached.
Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures of the drawings.
My invention relates to that class of dress shields which are designed to prevent the dress from being injured by perspiration at or near the arm-scye or point where the sleeve of the garment is attached to itsbody; and it consists in a novel construction and arrangement of parts, as hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed, the object being to produce a more effective and otherwise desirable article of this character than is now in ordinary use.
Dress-shields of this character as usually constructed consist of two crescent-shaped pieces of water-proof material, A B, which are united at their inwardly-curved edges was,-
as shown in Fig. 1. The edges raw correspond in curvature or form arcs of circles which are of equal diameter, and hence, when the shield is inserted in the dress and turned up or curved laterally on the line 00 to partially encircle the arm, as shown in Fig. 3, the arm-piece A will have a tendency to remain on the same plane with the body-piece B, so that when the arm is in its normal position, as shown by the dotted lines din Fig. 4, the shield is liable to wrinkle or pucker badly at the center or on the meeting edges :0.
In order to secure the ordinary shield, as shown in Fig. 3, in position to be worn, it is necessary to stitch it to the inner side of the dress, thereby rendering it difficult to remove it when necessary to be cleansed, and the stitches liable to disfigure the garment. My invention is designed to obviate these 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, (see Figs. 4, 5, and 6,) 0 represents the body-piece, and D the armpiece, of my improved dress-shield, said parts being composed of rubber cloth, oiled silk, or any analogous water-proof material. The body-piece O is preferably made considerably larger in area than the arm-piece D, and has its outer edge rounded, as seen at t, the outer edge of the arm-piece D being preferably straight, as shown at m. The inwardly-curved meeting edges 1; 'v of said pieces are also cut on different curves, that of the body-piece G constituting the arc of a circle, which is much less in diameter than that of the arm-piece D, this construction of said pieces having been found to prevent the shield from wrinkling or puckering when the arm is in its normal position, as shown in Fig. 4. The pieces Gand D are united by placing one upon the other and stitching them through and through near their meeting edges '0 n, the seam being preferably covered with a tape-stay, w, as shown by dotted lines in Figs. 4 and 5, which is placed over the same and stitched down in the usual manner of applying stays t0 the seams of cloth garments, shoes, &c. An elastie shoulder-strap, E, is secured to the shield at or near the united edges 2; o, the ends of said strap being attached to the opposite sides of the shield, and preferablyto the tape w, with which the seam is stayed or covered, as described. An elastic arm-strap, H, is also secured to the shield at or near the outer end of the arm-piece D, the ends of said strap being attached to the opposite sides of the shield, and preferably to a tape, 2, which is stitched to the arm-piece at or near its outer end ,to give it greater strength.
In the use of my improvement the hand is passed through the straps E H and the shield drawn over the arm until the body-piece O rests against the body of the wearer, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, after which the dress is put on in the usual manner.
It will be obvious that the shield, being independent of the dress, may be readily removed to be cleansed, or left off when itis not desirable to Wear it; also, that it will be kept in position by the elastic straps, which also render it adjustable to arms of different sizes.
The straps may be omitted and the shield secured to the dress by stitehesin the ordinary manner, if desired, without departing entirely from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus explained my invention, what 15 I claim is A drcssshicld composed of a body-piccc, an arm-piece, and two elastic straps, the mecting edges of the body-piece and arm-piece being cut on different circles or curves, one of 2c the straps being secured to the body'piece and the other to the arm-piece, substantially as described.
