TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, W. E. BROCK, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Dummies for Displaying Clothing; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a portion of this speciication, in whchi Figure 1 is a front view of a dummy constructed according to my invention.
Figure 2 isa central vertical section of the same.
Figure 3 is a side view, showing a modification of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
'lhe wire dummies ordinarily employed for displaying clothing are of comparatively fragile construction, and are consequently extremely liable toget outlet` shape and to be broken and rendered useless by careless handling, and, furthermore, from their skeleton form, fail to show the clothing as advantageously as would be the case if they approached more nearly the! full contour ol' the human figure. The object of this invention is to obviate these serious defects, and it consilsts in a dummy constructed ofsheet metal in two halves joined together by brazing, soldering, or other means, whereby vthe desired object isieiectually secured.
To enable others to understand the nature and construction of my invention, I will proceed to ders'cribe it with reference to the drawings.
The body, or, as it-may be termed, the dummy proper, in contradistinction to the apparatus as a whole, is shown at A, and is formed of two longitudinal halves or sections, struck up from sheet metal of any suitable kind, by dies of any appropriate construction, the said sections being united at their edges by brazing, soldering, or riveting, as may be desired, thejoint between them being indicated at a in iig. 3; such body or dummy A, when thus put together, being of a shape corresponding to that ofthe upper and middle portions ofthe human trunk, without arms, as represented in the several figures. This body A has a knob, a, fitted in its upper end, into the internal end of which is secured the upper end of the tubular staff b of the base B, upon which the body A is supported and retained in proper position by braces e, which extend inward from the said body to a collar, d, placed around the aforesaid stati', as shown in iig. 2. The dummy, as thus constructed, has its sides more or less curved or arched in its cross-section, the said form making the dummy very strong and not liable to external injury, and consequently rendering the same very durable, and enabling it to permanently retain its form, at the same time that, having a continuous surface, the clothing placed thereon is supported in a position more nearly approaching that assumed thereby when worn upon the person, than is the case when the dummy is formed of wire in the usual manner. The dummyA is provided at its front and back with strings or cords, c, whereby pantaloons may, when desired, be attached to the lower part of the said dummy. When the dummy is designed for use with small clothing, such as the garments of children, it may have a head, also formed of sheet metal, attached to it, as sho-wn in iig. 3, and may furthermore be provided with limbs made in a similar manner, if desired. i
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
As a new article of manufacture, a dummy for displaying articles of dress, formed of sheet metal, struck up in sections, and secured together in any suitable manner, substantially as described.
W. E. BROCK.
