T0 @Il 'lt-7mm, 'it' may con/cern.' l
Be it known that l, ROBERT GORTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newton, in the county of Middlesex and State of Hassachnsetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hose-Supporters, ofl
which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of hose-- supporters in which clasps adapted to engage the hose are attached to the lower ends of straps suspended from the corset or other garment above them. Heretofore it has been customary to employ a single non -elastic strap provided at its upper end with a safetypin or other device adapted to engage the corset and to connect thelower end of this strap by means of a buckle with elasticwebbing, the two lower ends of which carry the clasps. The clasps are slotted at their upper ends, and the webbing is looped through these slots and stitched. Other slots are formed in the clasps just below those above mentioned, and short pieces of non-elastic webbing are threaded through these slots and those above them and extend to the lower ends of the clasps, where they carry the base-plates and buttons, which cooperate with the loops of the clasps to engage the hose.
The object of my invention is to so construct the clasps and so attach them to the webbing that there may be a saving of the elastic, the cutting of the rubber threads incident to stitching may be avoided, and the back of the clasp may be covered by the webbing, so that the metal may be held out of Contact with the person of the wearer or with garments likely to be moist by perspiration that would tend to rust the clasp.
In carrying out my invention l provide the clasp near its upper end with alocking-lever, which grasps the extreme end of the elastic webbing and holds it securely without requiring the webbing to be looped or stitched, and in the clasp above the locking-leverl form a slot through which the button-carrying strap is threaded in such manner that it extends over the top of the clasp, reaches to the bottom thereof, and covers the back of the clasp, so that it is held away from the llesh or garment behind it.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a front view of a hose-supporter with my iinprovements applied. Fig. 2 shows a front elevation of one of the clasp portions of the hose-supporter, on a larger scale, detached from the suspending-webbing. Fig. 3 shows a rear elevation of the same with the suspending-webbing attached and the metal parts of the clasp indicated by dotted lines. Fig. 4 shows a vertical central section on the line 4 4 of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a perspective View of a portion of the clasp. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the locking-lever.
The suspending-strap A is preferably made of some non-elastic material and is provided at its upper end with a device B, adapted to engage with a corset. Its lower end is engaged by a buckle C, from which depend the two straps of elastic webbing D.l The parts above mentioned are of wellknown construction and form no part of my present invention.
Each strap D carries at its lower end a clasp E, which in their general characteristics are of well-known construction, but which have my improvements applied. The metal loop e, as usual, cooperates with a button f, which is attached to a metal base g. The loop is formed with a top portion h, which I call the clamp-frame. This clamp-frame extends some distance above the top of the loop, and it is considerably wider than the loop, the wings being formed with forwardly-projecting anges t', between which is pivoted a locking-leverj, consisting of a front piece k, having a toothed flange Z. The lower end of the strap D is inserted between the flanges i, the
frame h, and the locking-lever j when the lever is raised, as indicated in Fig. 5, and is securely fastened to the clasp when the lever is depressed, as indicated in Fig; 4. It will thus be seen that the clasps may be attached to the webbing by merely engaging the eX- treme lower ends of the webbing with the locking levers. No stitching .is required, (which would cut the rubber,) and there is considerable saving of material, as the end of the web is not looped where it is attached to the clasp, as has heretofore been the custom. This saving of material in several gross of hose-supporters is quite important when it is remembered that good webbing is expensive.
The clamp-frame 71. above thc lever 7' is formed with a transverse slot m to receive a short piece of non-elastic webbing n, which suspends the base-plate g, carrying the button j". This webbing or strap n enters the slot m from the rear, passes over the top of the frame, and extends down along'the back of the frame and loop and practically covers it, leaving only small portions of the frame exposed on each side. this arrangement are, first, a longer buttoncarrying strap is provided than where the strap is attached lower down on the loop or frame, and the button can be more easily engaged with the loop and disengaged therefrom and secured. The metal back of the loop and frame is so covered or lined that it is prevented from coming in contact with the fiesh of the wearer or with garments moist with perspiration.
It will be observed that the fianges 'L' project only a short distance beyond the frame 7L, and their edges are inclined downwardly toward the upper end of the loop. The front piece 7s of thelocking-lever is correspondingly inclined, its side edges registering with the edges of the anges, while its lower edge, which is curved and beveled,ts neatlyaround the upper end of the loop. Thus I provide a flat neat construction, and yet one which is strong and secure. The lever cannot accidentally be thrown open, as its edges are not exposed.
I claim- The advantages ofA per end having a slot near the top, and a button-supporting strap extending through the slot over the top of the clamp-frame and lining the clasp from top to bottom on its rear side, and a suspending-strap thelower free end ct' which is detachably connected with the upper end of the clasp.
3. A clasp for hose-supporters comprising a loop formed with a clamp-frame at its upper end having a slot near the top, a buttonsupporting strap extending through the slot over the top ofthe clamp-frame and lining the clasp from top to bottom on its rear side, a locking-lever on the front of the clasp pivoted to the clamp-frame above the loop, and a suspending-strap the lower free end of which is engaged by said locking-lever.
4. A clasp for hose-supporters comprising a loop formed with a clamp-frame above it having forwardly-projecting downwardly-inclined flanges, and a locking-lever pivoted between said flanges, having its side edges registering with the edges of the flanges and its lower edge fitting closely the upper end of the loop, whereby the edges of the lever are protected and accidental opening of the level' is prevented.
5. A clasp for hose-supporters, comprising a loop formed with a clamp-frame at its upper end having a slot near the top, a locking-lever pivoted to the frame, a relatively narrow button-supporting strap extending through the slot of the clamp-frame and lining the back thereof, and a relatively wide elastic strap detachably connected with the lockinglever.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
