STOCKING-SUPPORTlNG CLASP.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed March 26, 1906. Serial No. 308,035.
Patented Jan. 15, 19w.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE DEvoLL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county-of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have inventedcertain new and useful Improvements in Stocking-Supporting Clasps; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it apper tains to makeandus'e the same.
The present invention relates to clasps for stocking-supporters. I
As such clasps are now commonly made they comprise a plate carrying a headed stud or button, over which the fabric of the stocking is laid, and a metallic loop or bail, which is passed over the headed stud or button and clamps the fabric of the stocking.
The use of the clamping-bail has been found objectionable for severalreasons, particularly when fine silk stockings are used, chiefly because there is great danger of the clamping action of the bail tearing the stocking. It is to obviate this difliculty that I have produced my improved clasp, which can be used with the finest silk or lace stockings without in any manner injuring them, and at the same time produce a clasp which is e ually effective as a supporter as the usua device referred to.
To the above ends my invention consists of the improved stocking-supporting clasp which will now be described and claimed.
My invention is shown in the accompany- Figure 1 shows one form of stocking-supporter provided with my improved clasps; and Fig. 2 shows in front elevation one of the clasps 1n use, showing the mannerof engaging the stocking.
Similar reference characters will be employed in the specification and drawings to designate corresponding parts.
In the drawings, A represents a form of stocking-supporter of a well-known type, comprising a waistband or belt a and the depending elastic straps b, to which are adjustably secured by the buckles c the elastic tabs (1.
Each of the tabs d is provided with one of my improved supporting-clasps, which comprises, preferably, a metallic plate 6, which may be secured in any suitable manner to the tab d, as by providing the plate 6 with the slots f, g, and h, through which the end of the tab may be-laced and secured by sewing, all in a manner well known in this art.
The plate 6 carries aheaded button or stud t, which may be made of any suitable material and attached to the plate e in any convenient manner. Cooperating with: the headed stud t to hold the stocking are the tapes or ribbons t, which may be of any suitable textile fabric, preferably of silk ribbon of any desired color to match or contrast with the color of the supporter. This tape or ribbon t is fastened to the upper part of the plate 6 in such manner as to cause its two ends t" and t to hang down upon opposite sides of the headed stud or button; and it is preferably detachably secured to the plate by doubling a strip of ribbon of suitable length and passing the doubled portion through a hole 6 in the plate 6 and thence passing the free ends of the tape or ribbon downward through the doubled portion upon the outside of the plate, all as clearly shown in the drawings. By making the tapes or ribbons removable or detachable they may be readily replaced when worn out or they may be changed as desired, whereby the various colors may be. used according to the taste or desire of the wearer.
Fig. 2 shows the manner of using my improved clasp. The stocking 8 being laid over and upon the headed stud or button in the usual manner, thence one of the tapes or ribbons t will be wrapped or wound one or more times around the stocking fabric in one direction and drawn tightly about the shank of the stud or button beneath the head, and
the other tape or ribbon t will be wrapped or Wound about the stocking fabric and the shank of the stud or button in the opposite direction. Then the two ends will be tied in a bow beneath the stud or button, as clearly shown in Fig. 2, thus securely fastening the stocking and without danger of tearing it.
The bow-knot will preferably be tied without the usual preliminary knotting or crossing of the ends of the tapes or ribbons, so that a pull upon one of the ends will release the bow and permit the ready disengagement of the stocking from the clasp.
It is thought that my invention has been sufficiently described to enable one skilled in the art to understand its construction and mode of operation; but before proceeding to claim the sameI want to say that I do not consider my invention as limited to the details shown and described, as, so far as I am 2. A stocking-supporting clasp cornprising a plate, a headed stud or button mounted thereon and flexible tapes or ribbons detachably secured to said plate and adapted to secure the stocking to the headed stud or button, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses. v
