JAMES B. FAITOUTE, OF NEVARK, NEV JERSEY.
ELASTIC WAISTBAN D.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 569,411, dated October 13, 1896. Application filed June 5, 1896. Serial No. 594,356. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, J AMES B. FAITOUTE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newark, in the county of Essexv and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Elastic lVaistbands, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof, in which similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to elastic waistbands for trousers, and the object is to provide a band of this character which will be complete in itself and of which the facing forms a part, so that the band may be manufactured and sold to the tailors, who cut and apply the bands to the trousers by merely stitching the facings of the bands to the trousers; and with this and other objects in view this invention consists in the construction, combination, and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described in the specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a view of the back portion of a pair of trousers provided with my improved elastic waistbands. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same on line c of Fig. l.
Similar numerals designate like parts throughout both views.
Referring to the drawings, and particularly to the construction shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the numeral l indicates the upper portion of the back of a pair of trousers to which this improved elastic waistband has been secured, and which band consists of a facing 2, the upper and lower edges of which are adapted to be stitched to the trousers, which stitching concludes the operation of attaching the band to the trousers andavoids the necessity of the tailor stitching the facing to the waistband and afterward securing the facing to the trousers, as is now the practice in such cases. This facing 2 is provided near the lower edge thereof with a hem 3, adjacent to the said hem is formed a fold or plait l, which provides for the extension of the facing and limits such extension, and secured to the lower edge of the facing and passing within the hem 3 thereof are secured the lower ends of the elastic strips 5, said ends being secured within said hem, and to the facing 2 is secured by means of semicircular stitching 9 a buttonhole-strip 7, formed, preferably, of a single piece of fabric folded longitudinally and having the upper edge folded upon itself and stitched thereon to form the upper hem S, and formed in the under side of the strip 7, are longitudinal slots 13, cut in the under side thereof, and through which the elastic strips 5 are adapted to pass, the upper portion of said strips being secured within the buttonhole-strip by means of the semicircular stitching 9 and the hem 8, and in this buttonhole-strip 7 are formed buttonholes 10, the lower portions of which are cut through the upper central portions of the elastic strips 5, and access is had to these buttonholes 10 by means of the semicircular stitching 9, which passes below the same and leaves the upper portion of the buttonholes free.
Thus it will be seen that in order to attach the band to the upper portion of a pair of trousers it will only be necessary for the tailor to stitch the facing forming part of the band along the upper and lower edges thereof to the trousers, as shown in Fig. l, and thereby avoid the trouble and delay caused in first stitching the facing to the band and afterward securing the whole to the trousers, as usual.
The object of the plait 4 is to limit the extension of the elastic strips 5 when strain is made upon the buttonholes by the movement of the wearer.
I am aware that elastic waistbands have been produced prior to this application which have been provided with a folded or plaited portion to limit the downward movement or strain on the elastic strip, and also that elastic strips have been produced which are constructed with an intermediate frilled or inelastic portion, and therefore I do not claim these features per se.
Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
As an improved article of manufacture, a waistband for trousers comprising a facingstrip provided with a longitudinally-extending fold, a buttonhole-strip folded longitudinally and provided along the upper edge thereof with a hem securing said portions together and having buttonholes cut therein at predetermined points, elastic strips, provided with a-frilled or inelastic portion extending longitudinally thereof, the upper ends of Which are secured between the folded portion of the buttonhole-strip, the upper ends of which strips extend beyond the lower portion of the buttonholes, the lower portion of said elastic strips extending Within ahem or folded portion of the facing and being secured therein by means of the stitching which forms said hem, and also by means of the stitching which secures the facing to the buttonholes, said buttonhole-strip being provided in one side thereof near its lower edges with slits,
through which said elastic strips pass, Whereby the waistband may be readily secured to the trousers by stitching the upper and lower edges thereof to the same, substantially as described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of the subscribing Witnesses, this 3d day of June, 1896.
JAMES B. FAITOUTE.
