SUSPENDERS AND SHIRT-WAIST ATTACHMENT. 7
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 674,239, dated May 14, 1901.
Application filed December 5, 1900. Serial No. 38,789. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, RALPH BIRCH HEAD, of Fairbury, in the county of Livingston and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved Suspender and Shirt-Waist Attachment, of which the following is a specification.
When suspenders are applied and worn over shirt-waists or shirts, the appearance or general effect is not pleasing. Hence the practice has arisen of arranging suspenders beneath the shirt-waists or shirts and providing the latter with slits at points adjacent to the Waistband of the trousers, through which slits the suspender ends project and are buttoned to the trousers in the usual way.
My invention is an improved clasp for temporarily securing the suspender-ends to the shirt-waists.
The construction and arrangement of the clasp are as hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing my invention applied as in use. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of my improved clasp enlarged. Fig. 3 is an enlarged vertical section on line 3 3 of Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is an interior view showing my clasp applied to a suspender and shirt-waist or shirt, as in Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a cross-section on line 5 5 of Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a plan view of the sheet-metal blank from which the body of the clasp is formed.
A indicates my clasp or fastening; B, a shirt-waist or shirt; 0, trousers, and D suspender-ends. The shirt-waist or shirt B is provided with horizontal slits a at points adjacent to the Waistband of the trousers G. The suspenders are worn beneath the shirtwaist B, and their ends D project through said slits a and are secured to buttons b on the trousers in the usual way. My clasp or fastening A is applied so as to secure the suspender-ends D to the waist B at the lower edges of the slits a. The sheet-metal blank has a lateral arm 0. (See Fig. 6.) This part c is bent laterally over across the body portion, as shown in Fig. 2, and the end 0 of the body is bent upward on the central portion 0 and returned upon itself. Thus the bends c and o are on opposite sides of the central part or body 0 and at right angles to each other, both lying Within lines prolonged from said body. The horizontal part c of the clasp receives the suspender-end, and the vertical lower part c receives the edge of the shirtwaist. Each of the parts 0 and c is provided with a clamping device. These are preferably composed of a U-shaped spring 01, arranged in the parts 0 c and having teeth at its free end, and an elbow-lever d, which is pivoted at its angle and works through a slot in the parts 0 0. Thus when the said lever d is in normal position it forces the springdog (2 inward upon a Suspender-end D or upon the edge of the shirt-waist B, thereby clamping and holding the two parts D and B securely connected, so that the suspenderends are prevented from being retracted and drawn through the slits a. I
The body of the clasp A is formed from an L-shaped sheet-metal blank. (Shown in Fig. 5.) One end, a, is bent laterally parallel to the central portion 0 to form the open-slotted p0rtion 0, before described, and the other end, 0, is bent backward flat upon the central portion 0 and then parallel to itself. Thus the clamps c c are arranged at right angles and on opposite sides of the central portion.
The device is strong,'durable,'light, and cheap.
What I claim is 1. The clasp consisting of a plate of metal formed with a main arm and a shorter arm projecting laterally at right angles to the main arm and at one end of same, such rightangular arm being re-turned to overlie one end of the main arm or body and the opposite end of the latter being re-turned to overlie itself and then again bent downward to form a U- shaped clamp-body, and independent clamping devices, arranged as set forth.
2. As an improved article of manufacture the clasp consisting of an L-shaped sheetmetal piece whose longer arm or body portion is bent upward upon itself and then downward, the shorter arm bent upon the body laterally, and each bent portion being provided with a toothed lever or dog pivoted in a slot, the two arms being rigid and arranged on opposite sides and at the ends of the body, as shown and described.
