ELIZUE E CLARKE, CF NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT, ASSIGNOR 'IO FRANKLIN N. CLARKE.
IMPROVEMENT IN UMBRELLAS.
Spociiication forming parts of Letters Patent No. 44,482, dated September 27, 1864.
To all whom, it may concern Be it known that I, E. E. CLARKE, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Umbrellas; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact descriptioa of the same when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in
Figure 1, an open umbrella with my improvement attached; and in Fig. 2, a vertical central section of the same.
My invention rela-tes to an improvement in the common umbrella whereby that useful article is rendered a more perfect protector from storms; and it consists in attaching to a common umbrella under and at a little distance in from the edge a skirt of any kind of fabric, which extends entirely around the umbrella and down nearly to the feet of the person can ryin g it.
its upper edge to the ribs of the umbrella by means of the aforesaid hooks,loops, or buttons.
I construct the' The two edges which then hang perpendicular from the umbrella I join by buttons, as shown, or may be stitched up part of the distance or otherwise closed, so as to leave an opening at the top, as shown in Fig. 1, for the person Walking inside to look from, as seen in Fig. l. The skirt may be attached to the umbrella before it is raised and opened in the ordinary manner of opening an umbrella, taking hold of the staif under the skirt, so that when spread it will cover the person or persons under it, as in the drawings.
The skirt may be made adjustable as to length by taking up at the top and attaching it to the hooks at the requisite distance down from the top; or at t-lle bottom by rolling up as to reef, or by other devices.
4Close the umbrella in the ordinary manner while the skirt is attached and remove it from the person by unbuttoning the front orvotherwise or the covering of the umbrella may be made of sufficient length beyond the ends ot the ribs to extend and fall down to form the skirt with look-out the same instead of as described in a separate piece.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of a skirt with an umbrella in the manner and for the purpose substantially as described.
ELIZUR E. CLARKE.
