SPENCER H. BRGWN'AND CHARLES EWILLETS, 0E NEW YORK, N. Y.
Letters Patent No. 76,708, dated April lei, 1868.
IMPROVEMENT IN CORSET-SPRINGS.
TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that we, SPENCER H. B'nowN and CHARLES H. Winners-of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and improved Corset-Spring; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, enabling those skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specication, in which drawing-.- I
Figure 1 represents a front view oi' this invention.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section thereof.
Figure 3 is a. transverscsection of the same, thc line are, fig. 1, indicating the plane of section.
Figure 4 is a similar section thereof, takcnin the plane indicated lby the line y y, tig 1.
Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
This invention consists in a corset-spring composed of two parts, which are connected by slidesV or buttons,
in such a manner that the spring'can belengthened or shortened, according to the size of corset for which it isto be used. The middle fastenings of our spring are secured to slides, which'can be moved on the spring in a. longitudinal direction, so that said fastenings can be adjusted to the required position whenever the length of" the spring is changed. The buttons, which hold the two-parts of the spring together, are also movable, so that they do not interfere with the operation of adjusting the fastenings, whenever such adjustment may become desirable.'
A A represent a pair of corset-springs, .whichare connected by fasteningsazaf. of any suitable construction. Each of the springs AJA is composed ofi two parts, b b*, which are united by-buttons c 0*, fitting into slots d d* in such a manner that the said springs can be lengthened or vshortened at pleasure. The button c* lis rmly secured to thepart b of the spring, and its head Vcatches over the edges of the slot d, but the button c is secured to awasher, which overlaps the edges of the slot d, while the head of this .button overlaps the edge of the slot cl*. By these means theV button e is adjustable, so that it, can be shiftedas may be desirable.'
Instead of connecting the two parts -of thesprings by buttons and slots, they might be connected in different ways, for instance, by turning the edges of' the part b up to receiyev the part 5*; and we do not wish to confine ourselves to any particular manner of uniting. thel two parts offeach spring, so as 'torendersaid spring extensible; The fastenings d are rigidly attachedto the springs A A', but the middle fasteningsal a secured to slides a*, which can `be moved between the twoparts la* ofeach spring, so that'whenthe spring' is lengthened or shortened, said fastenings can beladjusted in the middlebctween the fastenings a a, or in any desired position.
The advantages of making a corsetspring extensible are apparent. At present, for corsets of different size, springs of different length must be made,'while'our extensible spring can be used Vfor corsets of all sizes. Furthermore, the ordinary spring being'rigid, according to its length, is liable to injure the fabric in which it is secured, while our spring can give to the motions of the body', and is therefore notliable to produce any injury on the corsct` or on the wearer thereof. Our spring. being. made double in the middle, yis stronger andpmore durable than a spring ofthe ordinary construction it canbe easily made and fitted into the seam of the corset, and it is very convenient for the manufacturers of corsets, as well as for the public, since one-size spring will do for all sizes of corsets. I i i Having thus described our invention, what we'claim Aasnew', and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A. corset-spring, composed of two par-ts 6 6*, connected so'that the spring can be lengthened or short cned, substantially as set forth.
2. The slide ai, moving between the parts b' b* ofthe spring A, in combination with the fastening a', substantially as and for the purpose described.-
3. The adjustable button c, in combinationwith an extension corsetspring or A', substantially as and Afor the purpose set forth. I
This specification signed by us, this, thc 24th day of February, 1868.
