SAMUEL S. \VILLIAMSON, OF BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR TO THOMAS P. TAYLOR, OF SAME PLACE.
GARM EMT-STAY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 394,746, dated December 18, 1888.
Application filed October 2, 1888. Serial No. 286,977. (No model.)
To (all who/n 2125 may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL SWILLIAMSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stays for (Srarments; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
Figure 1 is a plan view; Fig. 2, a similar view, but showing a stay lightened by the removal of metal from the body thereof and provided with intermediate attaching means; Fig. 3, a stay lightened from the edges; Fig. 4, a plain stay having the points and guards secured to the ends thereof; Fig. 5, a stay formed of two separate wires having the points upon clips secured on the ends and center thereof after the mannerof Fig. 4; Fig. 6, a detail showing the end and center clips, respective] y, the one being in plan and the other in perspective; Fig. '7, a perspective of, a stay in position upon the seam of a garment, and Fig. 8 a similar view showing a stay in process of attachment.
Like numerals denote the same parts in all the figures of the drawings.
Thestay shown in the first three figures can readily be made by blanking from thin resilient metal by means of dies.
The stay shown at 1 consists of the body portion 1,1he attaching-points 2, and the guards 3,.which extend over the ends of the points, as clearly appears in the figures.
\Yhere a stay is of considerable length, I
- deem it judicious to provide an attaching device intermediate between the ends of the stay, so that the latter is rendered less liable to buckle or twist and its attachment to the fabric of the garment rendered closer and more perfect. This I do by means of a pair of laterally-projecting prongs, 4, as in Figs. 2 and 3, or by means of a central prong, 6, located in the cut-out portion of the stay, (see Fig. 2 or, as a simple method for use in cheap stays, I provide a pair of holes, 7, through which a thread may be passed, and the stay thereby caught to the fabric at or near its center.
As shown at Figs. 5 and U, I can, if desired, use two separate wires and attach the separately-formed attaching-prongs to said wires in the form of clips. In attaching my improved stay the prong at one end is first thrust through the fabric forming one of the seamllaps of the garment. \Vith stays having the guard this is effected by slightly depressing the end of the prong out of the plane of the guard, so that it will catch, or pushing a small section of the cloth between the guard and the poiiit and then drawing it down upon the latter. The stay is then bent or bowed slightly, as seen at Fig. 8, and the other prong similarly attached. The stay, when allowed to resume its normal straight shape, lies flat upon the seam, slightly stretching the latter, if desired, between its ends. In skeleton stays (see Figs. 2 and 5) the intermediate point is secured to the goods in the same way as the end points or prongs. In stays as shown at Fig. 3 one side pointis first inserted and then the cloth is stretched and caught over the end of the other point. In stays like to Fig. 2 the sides of the stay may be somewhat compressed toward one another, so as to fix the points in the goods without the necessity of stretching the latter.
In my invention I do not wish to be confined to the exact details of construction herein shown and described, since it is obvious that many minor changes entirely within the province of mechanical skill can be made therein without departing from the spirit of my invention, which contemplates the employment of the thin flexible stay of resilient material and the guarded attaching-points located at or near the extremities thereof.
I claim- 1. A garmc1'1t-stay,the same consisting of a resilient blade, an engaging-point located at each end of said blade and rojecting outwardly therefrom, and a guard extended ontward over the end of each point and in substantially the same plane therewith, as shown and specified.v
2. The combination, in a garment-stay,with the resilient blade, of an attaching-point secured at each end thereof, an outwardly-extended guard-rim in substantially the same plane with and adapted for the protection of each point, and a supplemental. point or points located between the ends of the blade, substantially as shown and described.
33. A gar-ment-stay, the same comprising the resilientblad e, the outwardly-extended points 2, the guards 23, extended around the ends of said points, and the supplemental points 4, arranged upon the body of the blade, substantially as set forth.
4:. A garment-stay(consisting-of the resilient blade having formed thereon outwardly-projeetiug points in line with the body of the blade, whereby said blade may be seeured to a fabric, as described, and guards formed upon the blade and bowed OlillflVttl'tl beyond the ends thereof over the extremity of eaeh point, whereby the abrasive action of the points upon the t'aln-ie is obviated, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I al'tix my signature in presenee of two witnesses.
