GARMENT FASTENER OR SUPPORTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 709,909, dated September 30, 1902.
i i Application led January 24, 1902. Serial No. 91.022. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it. known that I, JOEL JENKINS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Montclair,
in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improveniente in Garment Fasteners or Supporters; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exactdescription of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. l t
My invention relates to improvements in garment fasteners or supporters in which I employ a device having means for engaging a suspender or like article of apparel, it also having means whereby a garment may be engaged and supported by said suspender.
The object of my inyention isto provide a garment fastener or supporter particularly adapted for lnens use as a trousers-supporter to be used in conjunction with Suspenders, whereby the Suspenders may be worn concealed beneath the outer shirt.
With this object in view I have adopted a construction and arrangement of parts which willbe fullydescribed in the specification and the novel features pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective viewof the device, showing also means whereby the garment to be supported maybe engaged. Fig. 2 shows a rear view with the suspender attached to the device. Fig. 3 shows the device in operative position, the view being longitudinal section. Figs. 4 and 5 show modiiiedviews of means to be attached to the garment to receive the coperating part of the fastener. Figs. 6 to 11, in-
- clusive, show modified forms of my device,
which will be hereinafter more fully described. h
My invention consists, preferably, of the form shown in Figs. l to 3, inclusive, in which the fastener is constructed of a continuous piece of wire A, having an engaging loop B, one end of which is contracted, as at b, and adapted to engage over a projection c, formed upon the plate O, which is in turn securely fastened to the waistband of the trousers D by means'A of the projecting prongs c and Washer-plate C', The device is further formed with engaging means for the suspender-end, such as loops a, and the ends of the wire A hook or button, as stated.
are held together by means of a sleeve a. Above the loop B proper is formed means for engaging the ordinary buttonhole of the suspender-end. This is preferably in the form of a projection b2, which is fastened in any desired manner-as, for instance, by a short sleeveb. l
In use the suspenderend is passed through the loops a and the buttonhole thereof engaged over the projection b2. It is obvious, however, that with this form the buttonhole of the supporting-strap or suspender might be slipped over the loopr l and drawn onto the shank just beneath the projection b2 to the same relative position to the shank as shown in Fig. 9. The loop B is then engaged over the projectionv cl upon the trousers, at the Sametime holding the outer shirt a2 and undergarment D securely over said projection c and supporting the trousers and undergarment, as shown in Fig. 3,-in which figure the Suspenders are shown as lying beneath the outer shirt.
In Figs. 4 and 5 I show a'kbutton c2 formed upon the plate O instead of the hook c. This form may be used, it desired, orany ordinary button secured upon the inside of the waistband D may be substituted.
In Figs. 6, 7, and 8 I show various forms of my device stamped out of sheet metal. In
Fig. 6 I show a back and side view of the the openings a aor through a single opening a3, as shown in Fig. 8.
In Figs. 9, l0, and l1 are shown forms coustructed of wi re in which instead of the projecting hooks or buttons I construct the 'shank c5, adapted to receive the loop of the suspender end strap. Fig. 9 shows a construction similar to Fig. l, but omitting the In Fig. 10 Ishow a form somewhat similar toFig. 9, but constructed with a single opening a4 and provided with a projecting portion a5, adapted to be used as a handle to more conveniently IOO manipulate the device. In Fig. Il I have shown still another form, in which the upper end of the fastener is constructed with jaws a6, which are adapted to engage around the suspender-strap. These jaws may be made to extend across until they meet, if so desired. It is obvious that the forms made of wire, as shown in Figs. 9, 10, and l1, may also be made of stamped sheet metal.
The band ZJ' maybe movably mounted upon the shank b3 of the device. This construction allows the pressure exerted by the supporting-strap or suspender to jam or contract the sides of the loop B by reason of the tapered form of the shank b3 shown, and thus contract the loop to thereby more securely engage the supporting hook or button attached to the trousers or other garment to be supported. The tubular connection a in this construction may be slidably mounted upon the one end of the wire Ain order to further aid in this contracting.,lr action of the loop B.
Various modified forms of invention might be used and still not depart from the spirit thereof; but I have shown only those which at the present time appear to be most practical.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. Inagarrnentfasteneror supporter, asupporting device having a loop formed upon its lower end, an opening formed upon its upper end, and an engaging projection secured upon the device directly above the lower loop.
2.

3. In a garment fastener or supporter, a device having a loop formed upon its lower end, loops formed upon its upper end through which a suspender-strap or like supporting means is adapted to engage, means intermediate of said upper and lower loops over which the end of the said suspender-strap is adapted to engage, and means for attaching the device to the garment to be supported.
4. In a garment fastener or supporter, a device having means upon one end for engaging the garment to be supported, means upon the opposite end. for engaging a supportingstrap, and means intermediate of the aforesaid means comprising a tapering shank for securely holding the said strap in engagement with the device.
5. In a garment fastener or supporter, a supporting-loop having a contracted loop formation upon its lower end, openings upon its upper end, a tubular connection connecting the upper ends of the device and securely fastened to one of the ends, a tapering shank formed upon the device directly above the said supporting-loop, a strap having an engaging projection secured thereto engaging around the said tapering shank and adapted to move upon same, and lneans for attaching the device to the garment to be supported, substantially as described.
6. Inagarmentfastenerorsupporter,asupporting-loop havingacontracted loop formation upon its lower end, openings upon its upper end through which a suspender-strap is adapted to engage, atapering shank formed upon the device directly above the said supporting-loop, a strap having an engaging projection and engaging around the said tapering shank and adapted to move upon same when acted upon by the suspender-strap with which the said projecting lip is adapted to engage, and means for attaching the device to the garment to be supported, subst-antially as described.
7. Inagarmentfastenerorsupporter,asupporting-loop provided with suitable means for attaching to a suspender or supporting strap, a tapering shank formed upon the device directly above the said supporting-loop, a strap having an engaging projection and, engaging around the said tapering shank and. adapted to move upon same to contract the sides of the aforesaid supporting-loop, and a supporting-button fastened to the garment to be supported and adapted to engage with the said supporting-loop, in combination with a supporting-strap or suspender to which the device is adapted to be attached, substantially as described.
8. In agarmentfastenerorsupporter,means to engage a garment to be supported; means adjacent thereto comprising a tapering neck to receive a supporting-strap, whereby the pull upon the strap will cause the garmentengaging means to hold more securely.
