ELLA M. CASE, OF PITTSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
COLLAPSIBLE DRESS-SKIRT FORM.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 663,861, dated December 1900- Applieation filed May 29, 1900.
To (0Z5 whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ELLA M. CASE, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania,haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Collapsible Dress-Skirt Forms, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in collapsible dressskirt forms; and one object thereof is to provide a novel skirt-former that is simple and durable in construction, one that is collapsible and takes up but little room when not in use, and permits of the packing of the same in a small space for transportation or other purposes, and one that will readily permit of the draping or forming of a skirt.
A further object of the invention is to construct a collapsible skirt-former which is simple in construction, strong, durable,efficient in its use, and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture and set up.
The invention finally consists in the novel combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described, and specifically pointed out in the claim.
In describing the invention in detail reference is had to the accompanying drawings, formingapart of this specification, and Wherein like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which- I Figure l is a perspective view of my improved collapsible skirt-form, showing the same in position ready for use. Fig. 2 is a side view thereof when collapsed. Fig. 3 is a perspective View of the locking-sleeve for retaining the form in the extended position.
Referring to the drawings by reference numerals, 1, 2, 3, and 4 indicate a series of concentric rings graduating in size upwardly and are connected together and suitably spaced apart by means of a series of supporting chains 5, Each of the concentric rings is provided with a series of links 6, connected to a guide-ring 7, arranged centrally within each of the concentric rings. The
lower ends of the supporting-chains are Serial No. 18,397. (No model.)
connected to the lower concentric ring 4, while the upper ends of the chains extend above the upper ring 1 to permit of attaching the upper links of the same to the books 8, secured to the base of the Waist-form 9. Extending upwardly through the guide-rings '7 is a vertical supporting-standard 10, connected at its lower end to the base 11 and at its upper end suitably secured in the bottom of the waist-form 9. Mounted upon the vertical supporting-standard 10 is a stop-collar 12, provided with a set-screw 13 for securing the former to the standard 10 and preventing the movement of the form when set up.
In settingup my improved collapsible form to permit of the draping or making of a skirt the form is extended and the upper end of the supporting-chains attached to the hooks 8 of the waist-form 9. The standard is extended upwardly through the collar 12 and the guide-rings 7 until the upper end thereof is secured within the waist-form. The sleeve is then made fast to the standard, which re tains the form in an extended position, as shown in Fig.1 of the drawings. When it is desired to collapse the form, the standard is detached from the waist-form, the set-screw 13 released, and the chains then removed from the hooks 8 and the form collapsed, causing the same to assume the position shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings.
It 'is thought the many advantages of my improved device can be readily understood from the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, and it will be noted that various changes may be made in the details of construction without departing from the general spirit of my in- Vention.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a device of the character described,the combination with the base, the vertical standard mounted in said base, and the waist-form mounted on said standard, said form carrying a series of hooks, of a series of rings concentrically arranged one above the other and increasing insize from the upper to the lower ring, a series of links connected at one end to each ring, guide rings surrounding the curing the form in the extended position, substandard with the other end of said links constantially' as described and shown. :0 nected thereto, a series of chains connected Intestimony whereof I affix my signature to each of the concentrically-arranged rings in the presence of two witnesses.
