DRESS-RAISING DEVICE.
s1 Eo'IFIoA'rIoN forming part of Letters Patent No. 614,158, dated November 15, 1898.
Application filed August 1, 1898. Serial No. 687,388. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LUCY AURELIA BAR- BOUR, of Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dress-Raising Devices; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to that class of de vices used for raising ladies dress-skirts up clear of the walk when necessary.
It is fully explained and illustrated in this specification and the accompanying drawings.
Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a dress-skirt turned inside out to show how the raising devices are attached to it. shows the same skirt turned right side out with the position of the raising devices represented in dotted lines. Fig. 3 represents in full size the loop-pins used to hold the raising-tape, also the tape.
The object of thedevice is to provide simple means for easily raising the dress on one or both sides with the back and front that will not get out of order and that can readily be transferred from one dress to another and operated by any one. 7
The means of attachment to the skirt consists of a spring-pin a, having a loop e on one side of the tape d to pass through, called a loop spring-pin. A row of these pins are inserted in or just below the binding 0 at the top of the skirt, with the loops 6 of the pins turned downward like the top one in Fig. 3, and another row is inserted part way down the skirt, with the loops e turned up ward like the lower pins in Fig. 3. The pins are arranged preferably in this order: In the upper row one pin a is placed in front, and a pin a is put a little more than one-eighth of the circle toward the side. A third pin a is put at about the same distance from the back, and a fourth pin a is placed a little to one side of the middle of the back of the skirt. The lower row of pins are placed between the pins of the upper row, in which order the pin Fig. 2
1) comes between the pins a a and the pin 1) between the pins a and 0t and the pin 17 between the pins a? and a The pin b is placed in the middle of the back, as in Fig. l,which shows only one side of the skirt A, but the other side is exactly the same.
The tape d has one end made fast to the loop of pin b at the back and passes up through the loop of the pin a of the upper row and down to the loop of the pin 19 then up to the loop of pin a thence around on the binding 0 to the loop of the front pin a, and from this loop itgoes down to the loop of pin 19 and up through the loop of pin a and down to the loop of pin b in the middle of the side and is made fast. For the other side of the dress the tape starts from the loop of the same pin 13 and goes through loops of pins on that side in the same order as that described around to the loop of the pin a in front, as before, and back to the side pin, (opposite to the pin b,) to be madefast there.
A bob or button g is made on or attached to each horizontal line of the tape a little way back of the loop of pin a in front to assist in finding the tape, and in operation the wearer, to raise the dress, takes hold of the bob and by drawing it backward draws the tape through the loop of pin a, which raises the dress at the pins 1) and b, and by drawing the tape up and forward it will draw through the loops of pins a and a and raise the dress at the pins b and 12 but by drawing the bob g directly up it will raise up the dress from front to back on that side, and by drawing on the bobs on both sides at once the dress will be raised all around.
The facility with which the pins, which are the only fastenings, can be taken out of one skirt with the tape and applied to another skirt in a few minutes is a great advantage, as one set will suffice for a whole wardrobe.
Having thus described my improvements, I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent-- In a dress-raising device the combination of the spring-pins having loops on one side, arranged in two rows, one row on, or just be low, the top of the binding of the skirt, with the loops of the pins turned downward, a
row of pins attached to the skirt a little way down, with the loops turned upward, and a piece of tape for each side of the skirt, each piece having one end fastened to the loop of a pin of the lower row, set at the middle of the back of the skirt, and passing up one to each side, to a loop of a pin of the upper row set a little to one side of the middle of the back, and then down through the loop of a pin of the lower row, set about one-eighth of the circle from the middle of the back and then up through the loop of a pin in the upper row and then around to a pin of the up-
