`SUSPENDERS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters'Patent No. 467,410, dated January 19, 1892. Application filed April 17, 1891. Serial No. 389,296. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom t may concern.-
Beit known that I, CHARLES R. HARRIS, of NVil-liamsport, in the county of Lycoming and State of Pennsylvania, have invented Certain new and useful Improvements in Suspenders; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, andexact 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 an improvement in Suspenders, the object being to reinforce the parts Where the strain and wear require extra strength, thereby increasing the durability and efficiency of the device.
Vith this end in view my invention consists in a reinforcing layer of thin metal, preferably thin sheet metal, woven wire,or wire-cloth, employed as a lining for the back and heart of Suspenders or adapted to be interposed between layers of leather or similar material forming these connecting-straps.
It further consists in a back and heart provided with a metallic lining, in combination with a ring for connecting these parts.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a view of a portion of Suspenders, showing a layer of one of the connecting-straps ripped partly from the shoulder-straps to show the position of the metal lining. Fin'. 2 is a detached View of a piece of Wire-cloth, and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional View.
A represents the ordinary back of suspenders, it being preferably made of leather folded over upon itself to receive the meeting ends of the shoulder-straps I l, and also to form a loop 2, in which to receive the connecting-ring 3. A lining t of metal is cut about the same shape as this connectingstrap, but preferably a triiie smaller, so that it will be completely concealed by the strap when folded. This lining may be cf very thin metal, of woven Wire, or of wire-cloth, as woven wire and thread, as shown, and when applied it is placed on the side of the strap which is to be inside, and it is then folded inside. The strap, with its lining, is then stitched in the accustomed manner around its edges or otherwise, as preferred, with thread or wire, as the case may be, or the fastening may be effected in any other approved way, and, in addition to this, a small staple 5 lnay be inserted at' the end of the strap in such manner as to fasten the parts securely together at this point, thus preventing the shoulderstraps from being accidentweakness has been at this point, on account of its being a center of the strain and at the same time comparatively restricted in size, and consequentlylong before theother parts have worn out the Suspenders have broken here, and efforts to avoid this have been more or less futile. By my present invention this point is rendered the strongest and least liable to give out. The heart B, which joins the trousersstraps, is similarly lined, and other parts in which the connecting-rings are 4held may also be lined in this same manner and stitched with thread or wire to the part interposed between the folds.
I-Iaving fully described my invention,I what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letl. In Suspenders, the combination, with shoulder-straps and button-straps, of a back and heart folded around the ends of the shoulder and button straps, respectively, a connecting ring cr loop, and a thin metal lining interposed between the ring or loop and the back and heart and held in place by the stitches which pass through the several parts, said lining adapted to sustain the strain brought upon the suspenders at this point and forming bearings for the ring or loop, substantially as set forth.
2. In Suspenders, the combination, with shoulder-straps and button-straps, of a thin metal or woven-Wire lining joining the converging ends of these straps andV back and heart, forming afaoing over the lining, the In testimony whereof I have signed this lining adapted to sustain the strain brought specification in the presence of two subscribupon the Suspenders at this point, and the ing Witnesses.
several parts, including the straps, lining, and CHARLES R. HARRIS. 5 facing, all held together by stitches passing Witnesses:
through them from one side of the Suspenders V. E. HODGES,
to the other, substantially as set forth. G, F. DOWNING.
