HERBERT N. NORTHROP, OF SOMEBVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS.
GARMENT-SUPPORTER- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 760,476, dated May 24, 1904.
Application filed October 1, 1902. Serial No. 125,570. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HERBERT N. NORTHROP,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Somerville, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Garment-Supporters, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying-drawings, isa specification, like characters on the drawings representing like parts.
This invention relates to garment-supporters, and has for its object to improve the device illustrated in my Patent No. 702,816,
granted June 17, 1902. In said patent is illustrated a device primarily designed for securing the so-called pointed waist-line, said device comprising a plate or body terminating at one end in a hook and having a pin secured to the back side thereof, the pin being employed to fasten the device in position on the corset or undergarment and the hook extending over the waistband of the skirt and operating to give it the desired pointed effect.
My present invention consists in providing the hooked portion of the device or any other device which is used for a similar purpose with suitable means for engaging the outside belt of whatever material and giving to it the desired V shape or pointed effect.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved garment-supporter, showing the manner in which it is used, parts of the garment being broken out to better show the construction. Fig. 2 is a sectionof the device on the line a: m, Fig. 3, the device being shown in operative position, and the waist, corset, or other undergarment, underskirt, and skirt of the wearer being shown in section. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the device with a part thereof removed to better show the construction. Fig. 4 is a vertical section of a modified construction, and Fig. 5 shows a modification.
The device as a whole comprises the plate or body portion A, which terminates at one end in the hook B and has a pin or other fastening means C secured to the back thereof, these parts being substantially as shown in said patent.
My improvement consists in extending the hooked portion B, as shown at 3, to form with the plate or body A a substantially U-shaped member, and in providing the arm 3 of said U-shaped member with belt-engaging means, herein shown as prongs or spurs 4C, situated on'the outside of said arm. I will also preferably secure to the portion 3 an ornamental device 5 in the nature of a buckle or button which serves to cover the belt-engaging means. This ornamental device 5 is preferably hinged to the extension 3, as at 6, whereby it may be swung down into open position, as shown in Fig. 1, while the belt is being applied.
In using the device the pin or other securing means C is engaged with the corset I) or other undergarment, the underskirt E, and the waist F all as in said patent, and if a tape 7 is used it is threaded through the apertures 8 in the plate A and is passed around the waist of the wearer. The waistband G of the skirt is then slipped under the hook B, and the outer belt H, which may be a ribbon belt or any other style of belt, is applied over the dress skirt waistband, the said belt being secured to the projections 4, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. During this operation the ornamental device 5 is opened, as shown in Fig. 1; but after the belt H has been secured to the prongs the said device will be swung into its closed position, as shown in Fig. ,2, to thereby cover the belt-engaging means and act as a finish.
Various ways may be employed for holding the buckle or ornamental device 5 in its closed position, and in Figs. 1 and 2 I have illustrated a spring 10, which is coiled about the pivot and is connected at its ends to the portion 3 and the ornamental device 5, respectively, and which tends normally to hold the device closed.
In Fig. 4 I have illustrated a friction device for accomplishing this, the said ornamental device 5 having a resilient lip 11, which by its frictional engagement with the neck of the hook B serves to hold the buckle or device 5 in closed position.
In Fig. 5 I have shown still a different way of maintainingthe ornamental device closed. In this construction the said ornamental device is hinged to the arm 3 in the same manner as the pin C is hinged to the plate A in said Patent No. 702,816-that is, the lower end of the arm 3 is split, and the device 5 has a stem 14, provided with a bent portion 15, which passes through and is hinged in an eye 16 on one of the parts of the split arm 3. The end of the stem is bent to engage the other part of the arm, by means of which construction the device 5 is held either in open or closed position by the resiliency of the split end of the arm 3.
While I have herein shown this improvementas applied to the form of garment-supporter illustrated in my Patent N 0. 702,816, it will be obvious that it may be applied to other forms of garment-supporters which have for their object the production of the pointed waist-line, and therefore the particular form of the plate A or of the securing means C is not essential to my invention. I
Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A garment-supporter comprising a nshaped member, means carried by one arm of said member to secure the latter to a garment with the arms of the n-shaped member directed downwardly, and belt-engaging fingers on the outer face of the other arm, the space between said arms constituting a downwardlyopening skirt-waistband-receiving mouth.
2. A garment-supporter, comprising a nshaped member, a pin carried by one arm of said member to secure the latter to a garment with the arms of said member directed downwardly, belt-engaging means on the outer face of the other arm, and an ornament hinged to the lower end of said latter arm, said space between the arms constituting a downwardlyopening skirt-waistband-receiving mouth.
3. A garment-supporter comprising a U- shaped member, a pin carried by one arm of said member to secure the device to a garment with the arms of the U-shaped member directed downwardly, and belt-engaging means on the outer face of the other arm, the space between the arms constituting a downwardlyopening skirt-waistband-receiving mouth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
HERBERT N. NORTHROP.
