SLEEVE-PATTERN.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 526,379, dated September 25, 1894..r

Application filed September 19, 1893. Serial No. 485,813. (No model.) i l To alli/,cham it may concern/.-

Be it known that I, SIMON CHRIsTrANsEN, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Sleeve- Pattern, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The invention relates to garment fitting patterns, and its object is to provide a new and improved sleeve pattern, which is simple and durable in construction, arranged to facilitate the taking of the proper measure of the arm of the human body, and to permit of conveniently cutting the material into upper and under sleeve parts from the pattern obtained.

The invention consists ot certain parts and details, and combinations of the same, as will be hereinafter described and then pointed out in the claims.

`Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the igures.

Figurelis a planview of the improvement. Figs. 2, 3, L.tand 5 are enlarged cross sections of the same on the lines 2 2, 33, 4 4, and 5--5 respectively, of Fig. l; and Fig. 6 is a sectional side elevation of part of the improvement on the line 6--6 of Fig. 1.

The improved sleeve pattern is provided with the two upper plate sections A and A pivotally connected with each other by the links B and B united at their tree ends by a pivot C. In the sections A and A are formed the circular slots A2 and A8 arranged near the upper outer edges of` the sections and engaged by rivets D and D respectively, attached to curved strips E to movably connect the upper ends of the sections with each other. The sectionsA and A are movably connected with each other near their lower ends by a transversely-extending bar F formed with a longitudinally-extending slot F engaged by a clamping screw Gand a guiding pin G both held on the section A. The inner end of the bar F is fastened by rivets G2 and G3 to `the section A, as plainly illustrated in Figs. 1 and 3. The rivet G2 as well as the clamping screw G, are adapted to be taken hold of by the operator to conveniently move the two sections 5o A and A toward or from each other, accord# ing to the measurement obtained from the arm of the human body measured with an ordinary tape. The measurement thus taken is indicated by a graduation F2 formed on the top of the bar Fand read off on the clamping screw G.

The sleeve pattern is provided with the lower sleeve sections `H and I of which the latter is connected by the intermediate piece J with the section'A, the connection being a pivot J as plainly shown in Fig. Y1. The piece J and lower sleeve section I are connected with each other by pins K and K', engaging corresponding slots J2 and I', formed in the piece J and section I, it being understood that the pin Kis fastened to the section I and the pin K to the piece J. The section H is guided on the rivets G2 and G3 and is held adjustable lengthwise on the section A, the latter being provided at its lower end with a pin L engaging a longitudinally-extending slot Hf formed in the section H.

Thepin L is formed with a pointer L indicating on a graduation H2 formed on the topof the section H, so as to indicate the length of the sleeve according to the tape measurement obtained from the arm of the human body. The extreme lower ends of the sections H and I `are connected with each other by the slides I-I7 and 12fitted to slide one upon the other, so as to permit of moving the lower ends of the sections H and I toward or from each other, according to the width of the sleeve at the wrist. This width is indicated by a graduation H3 on the slide H7, the measurement being read on the said graduation on the end of the other slide I2;

The lower sleeve sections H and I are pivotally-connected with each other by the links N, N', united by a pivot N2 and by a second set of links composed of three members of which the link O is pivoted on the section I and is pivotally connected with a link O carrying at its free end a pivot O2 (see Fig. 4) connected by a link O3 with a pivot O4 attached to the other section H. This pivot O4 extends through a slot O5 in the Iirst named link O, as plainly illustrated in Figs. l and et. The pivot O-2 forms a bearing for a rod P which loosely passes through the pivot N2 previously mentioned, also through the pivot C and loosely through a slide P' fitted to slide on the graduated side of the bar F above mentioned. Through this slide P' also passes loosely a second curved rod P2 held at its free end on a pin P5 secured to the upper sleeve section A. On the pivot O2 screws the set screw 06 to fasten the rod P in place whenever desired.

Now, it will be seen that when either of the upper sleeve sections A and A' or the lower sleeve sections I-I and I are moved toward or from each other, the said rods P and P2 will be adjusted accordingly, to indicate the outline for the under sleeve, as hereinafter more fully described.

The extreme lower ends of the lower sleeve sections H and I are provided with extensions Q and Q respectively, iitted to slide in suitable bearings formed onvthe under side of the said sections, as plainly indicated in Fig. 5. The extension Q is provided with a pin Q2 fitted to slide in a slot H5 arranged in the lower end of the sleeve section H, and on this pin Q2 is formed a pointer Q3 indicating on a graduation H6 arranged on the upper surface of the Asleeve section H. The extension Q is adj usted so that the pointer Q3 reads on the same numeral for a certain length of sleeve indicated by the pointer L on the graduation H2. The other extension Q is moved out to correspond with its outer end to the outer edge of the extension Q. The outer edge of the lower plate section H is raised by fastening a wire thereto, or turning the edge so as to form a drawing edge H4 for indicating one edge of the under sleeve, the upper part of the said drawing edge extending over a slot A4 in the upper sleeve section A, to permit 'the operator to conveniently draw the line for the under sleeve on the material placed under the pattern. The upper edge of the under sleeve is drawn from the edge H4 along the curved rod P2 to the intersection of the latter with the rod P, and then along the lat-V ter between the sections H and I to the lower end of the said rod P. The upper ends of the sections A and A' are formed with perforations so as to form additional drawing edges A5 and A6 for sleeves of different sized height or width of sleeve.

Itis understood that in using the pattern the operator obtains the width of the sleeve by tape measurement, and then moves the pattern sections A and A' apart until the clamping screw G is in line with the corresponding mark of the graduation F2 on the bar F, and then the operator moves the sleeve4 sectionsH and I downward until the pointer L' indicates the length of the intended sleeve. The extensions Q and Q' are adjusted likewise, so that the pointer Q3 indicates on the same mark of the graduation H6 as the pointer Y L on the graduation H2.

placed lon the material from whichthe upper .sleeve is to be cut and the operator now draws a line along the outer edges of the sections A, A', H, I and link E and extensions Q, Q', to obtain the outline for upper sleeve. Forl sleeves of less height the edges A5 and A6 are used instead of the npperedges of sections A A' and links E. Byadjusting the Various parts for the upper sleeve, the under sleeve is obtained and can directly be traced on the material, as it will be seen that by adjusting the upper sections A and A', the position of `the rodsP and P2 is correspondingly changed, as the movement of the links Bandl vN' causes the upper part of the rod P to shift sidewise to move the slide P' on the bar F, and when the lower sleeve sections H and I are moved toward or from each other, then the rod P is again shifted at its lower end' owing to the connection of the rod with the The pattern is then pivots O2 and N2 of the sets of links O, O', O3,

and N, N', respectively. It will alsobe seen that the piece J sliding on the section I and pivotally connected with the section A', per- -mits of adjusting the said sectionI longitudinally without affecting the drawing edge for the upper sleeve, between the section A', the piece J and section I.

It will be seenthat the construction of this sleeve pattern requires no skill to conveniently manipulate it to obtain simultaneously the proper shape of both the upper and under sleeves, it being understood, however, that the contour of the under sleeve is obtained IOO by adjusting the pattern for the measurey having af pivotal connection with the said sections and also pivotally connected with each other, and a rod engaging with the several pivotal connections of the said links, substantially as described.

2. A sleeve pattern provided with a series of sections, links arranged in sets of two and having a pivotal connection with the said sections and also pivotally connected with each other, a rod engaging the several pivotal connections of the said links, and a second rod held on one of the pattern sections and having a sliding connection with the first named rod, substantially as described.

3. A sleeve pattern, comprising a series of adjustable sections, a transverse bar connecting two of the sections, a slide held to move along the said bar and two rods each fitted to slide in the said slide and each connected to the pattern sections, substantially as described.

4. A sleeve pattern, comprising two upper sleeve sections connected with each other by links having a pivotal connection, two lower IIO i x 526,379 f i s upper sleeve section and likewise loosely engaging the said slide, substantially as shown to and described.
