CORSET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 425,520, dated April 15, 1890.
Application filed J une 6, 1889. Serial No. 313,534, (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, REDDIN W. PARRAMORE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Monmouth county, New Jersey, have in-` vented a certain new and useful Improvement in Corset Attachments, of which the following is a specilication. p
My invention relates to a device to be applied and used in combination with corsets as Worn by ladies; and the object of the iinproveinent is to provide a shield to hold the under-garments of the wearer in an undisturbed position while the corset is being drawn together and clasped, and will act also as a protection to the body in case the corsetsteels should break at the point of bending, at the saine time to diminish the liability to break.
The device is illustrated in the accompanying` drawings, in which similar letters refer to similaiparts.
Figure l represents the corset A partly open with the shield shown as secured to the inside of one of the Iianges of the corset and in the act of being closed or folded over. Fig. 2 represents the corset A in position to be drawn together with the shield in place resting against the body, confining the under-garments in an undisturbed ppsition and projecting beyond the edge of the lange of the corset. When the flange and shield are closed to the body and the iianges are drawn together, the shield engages the .inner side of the opposite flange. Fig. 3 represents the corset drawn together and claspechthe shield shown underneath by dotted lines. Fig. i represents the improvement.provided with a band d for the purpose of attachment to the corset. The braces or supports are indicated by the numerals from l to l0. edge View of the shield.
A is a corset, and may be of any of the usual forms, laced or clasped in the back or front thereof, or both, and made in the usual Fig. 5 is an p to the corset, it may be used without such an attachment-that is to say,may be laid upon the body and the flan ges drawn together over it 5 but I prefer to attach it by the band CZ d.
c and e are flanges to be grasped by the wearer in drawing the corset together with the hands, as shown. The flange c is pressed to the body, thereby closing the shield. The flange e is then drawn over the shield and clasped with the iiange c, and the corsets are locked or secured. The stays of the shield are made curved to coliform to the body ot the wearer, as shown in Fig. 5, and the shield is attaehed to the interior of the corset, so that its stays Will be at about right angles to the corsetsteels. Vhen the corset is closed about the body, the shield conforms to the body and acts as a support and protection.
7What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is as follows:
A shield for corsets, consisting of a series of stays secured in webbing, said stays being curved in the direction of their length and the shield being secured to the interior of the corset with the stays at about right angles to the vertical steels thereof and overlapping the space between the vertical steels, substantially as described.
