Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EMIL GUTMANN, OF NEWV YORK, N. Y.
SUSPENDERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 425,173, datedApril 8, 1890.
Application filed December 26, 1889. $eria1No. 334,925. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, EMIL GUTMANN, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of New York, in the State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement Relating to Suspenders, of which the following is a specification.
I employ plain suspenders, the pair made each separate from the other, and connect them by a flexible back-piece, in which they are self-adjusting. I
Many efforts have been made to connect separatelymade suspenders; but all have been subject to objections, one of which is the difficulty of making the back-piece selfsustaining at the proper height. My backpiece requires no girth or other means of supporting it. My experiments indicate that it will sustain itself at the proper height and maintain the proper connection of the separately;formed suspenders while yielding to all the motions of the body, and allowing the parts to adjust themselves as required by the conditions.
The accompanying drawings form a part of this specification, and represent what I consider the best means of carrying out the invention. v
Figure 1 is a rear view showing the invention in use, and Fig. 2 is a section on the line as as in Fig. 1. The remaining figures show a modification. Fig. 3 is a rear View, and Fig. 4 is a section on the line y y in Fig. 3.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures where they appear.
A and B are separately-formed suspenders of any ordinary character. I will assume that they are stout webbing provided with any ordinary or suitable provisions for adjusting the length.
M is what I term the back-piecefi made of flexible material, as leather, of moderate thickness, in the form shown, corresponding to the position of the crossed suspenders. The back-piece is deep or considerably extended in its vertical dimensions, but nar row. The sides are of a contour to match to the edges of the suspenders.
In the back-piece I punch out or otherwise produce six horizontal or nearly horizontal slots m, through which the suspenders are rove and crossed, as shown.
- B is a narrow band of a yielding frictional material. I have in my experiments used rawhide. It is passed through short vertical slots m, arranged as shown, and gently embraces the crossing-point in the suspenders, insuring a gentle friction, which prevents the parts from changing too easily their places relatively to each other. This band also pre- Vents the parts from bulging or springing apart under any conditions. The upper slots on are defended by a lining P, of thin brass, which is applied in the manner of an eyelet, with itsedges or flanges compressed upon and partially into the material of the back-piece. This lining gives great strength to resist the tendency of the suspenders to tear when they are strained apart in applying or removing the suspenders.
Modifications may be made without departing from the principle or sacrificing the advantages of the invention. I can use other material than leather; but I esteem it important that it shall be flexible. The metal lining P may be applied also to the lower slots, and in such case the back-piece will be reversible. The strain ordinarily is greatest on the upper slots.
Parts of the invention can be used without In such case the suspenders ing material, as leather, slotted as shown, and provided with the metal guards P, lining the whole or a portion of the slot, arranged to receive the stress of the suspender-edge on i In testimony whereof I have hereunto set 5 the meta1-1ined portions, as herein specified. I
my hand, at New York city aforesaid, this Q-Lth day of December, 1889, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
2. In suspenders, the back-piece M, having slots arranged to receive separate suspenders A B, in combination therewith and with the inelosingstrap D, of yielding material, as
to herein specified.
EM IL G UTMANN.
