THOMAS P. TAYLOR, OF BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT.
GARM ENT-STAY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 425,835, dated April 15, 1890.
Application filed October 3, 1889- Serial No. 325,940. (No model.) 7 i To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THOMAS P. TAYLOR, a citizen of the United States, residingat Bridgeport, in the county of Fairfield and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in GarmentrStays; 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.
My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in garment-stays, and has for its object to provide a stay which shall be free from the stiffness characteristic of certain stays now upon the market, which shall be exceedingly easy of attachment, and
which shall not be subject to rust upon the blade from action of perspiration; and with these ends in view my invention consists in the construction hereinafter to be set forth, and then recited in the claims.
In order that those skilled in the art to which my invention appertains may fully understand the same, I will now describe my improvement, referring to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective of a garment-stay made in accordance with my invention; Fig. 2, a similar view, but with the textile covering partially removed and with the impervious adhesive coating left off the end of the blade; Fig. 3, a transverse section, the coating of the steel being exaggerated and the layers of textile separated that the construction may more clearly appear; Fig. i, atransverse section, but with the parts shown in about their normal relation; Fig. 5, a detail perspective showing an alternative method of finishing the end of the stay.
Like reference-numerals denote the same parts in all the figures.
1 is a resilient blade, preferably of steel or other metal, but which may be of any other substance which by reason of its elastic qualities is suited for the manufacture of stays, the ends whereof may, if desired, be provided with metal tips 2, as seen at Fig. 2, or may be rounded and left unprovided with the tip.
This blade I coat thickly upon all sides, as by dipping in a bath, with a coating of water-proof adhesive substance 3such, for i11- stance, as crude rubber or gutta-percha cut with an appropriate solvent. I next apply upon each side of the blade so coated a layer of textile fabric 4 somewhat wider than said blade, so as to leave stitching edges along its sides, and preferably longer than said blade, to admit of the ends of the stay being also fastened to the garment, and, further, to protect the garment from abrasion by said ends. The sheets or layers of fabric after being so applied are caused to adhere strongly by pressure or pressure and heat, according to the adhesive employed and according to the condition of the coated blade, whether wet or dry, at the time of the application of the textile thereunto. The stripping of the fabric from the coated blade when once firmly adherent is difficult when attempted to be done from the side of the blade; but when attempted from the end it is relatively easy to separate the fabrics from the blade. To prevent this I prefer to provide means for securing the layers of fabric at their ends and beyond the extremities of the blade. This I do either by a single or double row of stitching, as seen at '5, Fig. 1, or by means of a separate strip of adhesive material, as gutta-percha tissue 6, interposed between the fabrics, (see Fig. 2,) or I can provide the ends of the stay with curved metal tips 7, clasped upon them outside the fabrics, whereby the latter are held to the steel and together. (See Fig. 5.)
In many stays heretofore produced the blade has been protected against rust, and the several parts of the stay held together by means of sheets of rubber or gutta-percha longer and wider than the blade and equal in size with the layers of fabric. These stays, however, are open to the objection that the edges of the covering are thereby rendered exceedingly stiff and the flexibility of the blade interfered with, and the operation of sewing into the garment is rendered difficult by the tenacious quality of the interposed layers ofadhesive.
The stay herein described has its blade perfectly, protected against moisture from the body and the rust engendered thereby. The adhesion between the blade and covering fabrics is amply sufficient for all purposes, and the entire absence of stiffening of any kind in the edges of the textile fabric renders the than the blades, and coating said layers of fabric, being adherent to the gutta-percha coating throughoutthe area of the blade, but free as to their side edges, and means for securing the ends of the fabric layers together beyond the ends of the blade, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
