To r/,/Z 'lt-71,0171, fr 11u/,y emmer-71,:
Be it known that l, A Lnicn'r G'. Srmu'r` a citizen of the United States, resid ing at At tleboro, in the county of Bristol and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and use- *fullmproi-'ements in Girdles, of which the following is a specilication, reference being had I'therein to tno accompanying drawings. l My invention relates to girdles haring expansive qualities and adapted to facile adjustg'ability to accommodate itself to the varied di- 'mensions of a variety of wear-ers. lts objects are to attain the ends above suggested withoutv involving any disclosure of the elastic ymeans-after the girdle is applied to the body in extended position. An additional purpose is to furnish a read i ly-adjustable and j'ierfectlysecure means of retaining the ends of thel clastic member.
To the above ends my invention consists in the novel structure and combination of parts Ylfiereinafterset forth, and illustrated in thi,x accempanying drawings, wherein-- Figure 1 is a front elevation of a length of Iii 'new girdle; Fig. 2, a rear elevation of the xr'dl in contracted position with intermediate portions thereof broken away; Fig. 3, a simiryiew of a girdle-section in expanded posi- -ftionlFig. 4, alongitudinal section of the gir- ?dle on line fz: :n of Fig. 2; Fig. 5, a detail View 1 ne'of the links, and Fig. 6 a similar view f'one of the elastic buckles. Like lreference-letters indicate like parts throughout the views.
'My new girdle comprises a series of slidlyrinterlocked links A, connected by an elas- 'jtrc'f webbing B. ln detail each plate A has {prefe'rably a nearly-rectangular body with an ornamental face. A n oblong i n wa rd ly-c u rved hook e projects rearwardly from one of the :'ia'rgins of each plate and is provided with a jfertjcal slot Near its opposite margin each platelias an oblong perforation C, which is converted at its extremities into inwardly-directed cuts which form pockets (Z at rightan- `=gles to the openingc. The links A are joined in series by engaging their hooks a through the perforations c of each link, the hooks bemg in each case rearwardly direc-ted.
elastic webbing B is passed through the-slots of the hooks n, vthereby engaging each link y of the series and imparting an elastic characl ter to the entire girdle.
'lhe ends of the webbing B are frictionally engaged with hook members C.A Each of these members has'in its shank two parallel openings which form a bar e, with marginal prongs f1 One edge of the shank is bentto form a lip g. rlhe end of the webbing B is passed through the openings in the shank and over thebar e. The lip g is then engaged,
through the slot b, with the terminal link of the series, whose hook is bent back into the planeof the links, thereby converting the hook n. into a bar a'.
The buckle D 4has fixed to its rear two inwardly directed and oppositely disposed hooks I.. n l; latter engage the bar a' upon the end links of the girdle series.
It will be observed that the depth of the 7G pockets (Z, while suf'cient to admit of a liberal expansion of the-adjacent links A, nevertheless are suiiciently restricted in dimension to prevent any intervening space between the adjacent links A when the girdle is expanded, it being imperative in ornamental metallic girdles that no be visible.
-The possibilities of adj ustability in the above structure is extensive, yet should a radical change in the length of the girdle be called for one or more of the links A may be engaged or disengaged, and the elastic webbing B may bc lengthened or shortened by a renewed frictional adjustment in the terminal hook members C. The adjustments are speedily attained and without any defacement of the parts, since all parts of the structure are united either by friction or hooks and all solder dispensed with. l-laving described my invention, what I claim is- 1. As an 4article of manufacture, a girdle comprising inter-locked plate-sections overlapped and having rearwardly-extending portions, and a tlexible connection engaging the rearward ly-extending portions of the sections, said eo-rn=fetion being covered by the plates.
2. rs an article of manufacture f girdle portion of the elastic webbing comprising overlapped sections, each .section being provided with a rearwardlv-extending projection. interloclxed with the adjacent section, and a iieXihle connection located longitudinally along the rear sides of the sections and engaging the projections thereof.
comprising ox-'erlapped sections, each section being provided with a rearwardlv-extending projection intel-locked and having a slidable engagement with the adjacent section, and a connecting device engaging the various projections.
LQAS an article of manufacture, a. girdle comprisingscctions,each havinga rearward lyprojceting portion extending through the adjacent section and provided with an opening, and aconnecting device located along the rear `sides of the sections and passing through the openingsof the rearwardly-projecting portions.
5. As an' article of manufacture, a girdle comprising sections, each provided at one end vwith an opening and at the other end with a hook portion that passes through the opening 0f -the adjacent section, said hook portions being provided with openings, and ,a flexible extensible strap extending longitudinally almig the sections and passing through the openings in the hook portions thereof.
G. As an article of manufacture, a girdle comprising sections, each having an opening therethrough 'and a rearwardly-extending hool that passes through the opening of the 3. As an article of mamifacture, a girdle adjacent section, said hooks being also pro 35 vided with openings, a llexible strap passing longitudinall)y along one side of the sections and through the openings in the hooks thereof, forming means for fastening the sections together, and hook elements having detachable 40 engagements with the ends of the strap an with the end sections. 7. An elastic belt composed of a series of links, each provided with a turned-up lip in which a slit is formed and with a slotte be en- 454` gaged by the lip ot an adjacent link, a strip of elastic webbing being passed through thejA siotsin the lips and secured to the end links," and means for connecting. the end links. ln testimony whereof` I have affixed my 'sig-1. nature in presence of two witnesses. l-
