SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 501,065, dated July 11, 1893.
Application filed February 9, 1893. Serial No. 461.551. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHRISTIAN GREINER, residing in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stocking-Expanders, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a stocking expander composed of a length of wire bent into the form of a flattened stockingand designed [O to shape stockings and to permit them to be dried without shrinking or losing their form.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation of my improved stocking expander. Fig. 2 is an elevation of a modification.
The stocking vexpander is composed of a continuous length of wire, bent to assume the outline of aflattened stocking, viz., a leg and foot. The leg of the expander is divided into a front section b and a rear section 0. Each section is coiled at the top to constitute a spring a, a while a similar spring a is formed at the too. The two ends a and a of the wire, form the two innershanks of the divided leg and they are connected by a slip joint as shown. That is to say, the wire a is looped around the wire a, so that as the leg of the expander is compressed, the looped wire a will be free to slide down upon the straight wire a. The result is, that the expander 39 will always exert a uniform pressure upon narrow and upon Wide stockings. It will be seen that when the expander is thrust into a stocking, the divided leg will permit a contraction, while the springs will cause an ex pansionao't' the device, so that the expander may befeadily fitted into a stocking and will stretch the same when in place.
In Fig. 2. a hook d is pivoted to the spring a and engages the shank a of the expander. 40 This hook prevents an undue stretching of the stocking.
What I claim is A stocking expander composed of a length of wire bent to form a spring foot and a spring leg and in which the two free ends a, a of the wire form the twoinner shanks of theleg section and are interlooped to form a slip joint, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
O. GREINER.
