' Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 25, 1907.
Application filed December 6,1906. Serial No. 346,589.
T0 at whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ROBERT SURRY VAL- EENTINE, a citizen of the United States, residmg at Richmond, in the county of I-Ienrico and State of Virginia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Sk1rt-Supporter, Placket-Closer, and Waist- Holder, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is designed to provide in a single article of manufacture a combined skirt support and placket closer in one embodiment of the invention and in a second embodiment of the invention in a single article of manufacture a combined skirt supporter, placket closer and waist holder.
The object of the invention is to provide an article of this character which is particularly simple and inexpensive in construction and highly efficient in operation.
The invention includes the combination and arrangement of component parts to be hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate my invention Figure 1 is a view of a fragment of a skirt showing the same equipped with my invention. Fig. 2 is a detail plan view and'Fig. 3 a perspective view of a modified form of the invention, and Fig. 4 is a detail view.
The invention includes, generally, complemental plates, or strips, arranged along the edges of the placket opening, these plates being pivotally connected at their lower ends to each other and provided at their upper ends with rigid lateral extensions designed to extend a distance about the waist band of the skirt'and be secured thereto for preventing the sagging of the same. The invention further includes complemental hooks arranged at the upper ends of the plates designed to be readily interengaged for locking the plates in superimposed position for retaining the placket closed.
In the accompanying drawings the complemental plates, or strips, are designated ab, are pivotally connected to each other at the lower ends by a suitable rivet c, and are made of some suitable thin material having a sufficient degree of flexibility to conform to the form of the wearer of the garment.
The extension strips, or plates, are designated d, are rigid with the strips (2-1) and extend laterally from the upper ends of the latter, being slightly curved or arcuate, as viewed in plan, to conform to the waist.
The hooks for detachably retaining the plates ab in superimposed position are designated ef; the hook 6 being on the inner face of the plate a and the hook f on the outer face of plate b.
Each plate with its extension and engaging hook is preferably stamped out of one piece of metal, the extension d projecting from one longitudinal edge of the same at the upper end thereof and the hook from the opposite longitudinal edge at the upper end of the plate.
The device is preferably associated with a skirt by retaining the arms a b in pockets at the edges of the placket and the extension plates (1 are sewed or otherwise suitably held in pockets in the waist band of the skirt. The hooks ef extend through slits in the fabric and are exposed so that they may readily be interengaged. The rigid extensions (1 act to support the skirt of the waist band and prevent sagging of the same and they also greatly assist in the engagement and disengagement of the hooks ef as the wearer of the skirt may grasp these parts by her fingers in manipulating the device.
The embodiment of the invention shown in Fig. 3 includes a preferred form of waist holding means. As disclosed in this figure of the drawings, a tongue of metal 9 is stamped out of the body of each extension plate and is preferably serrated along its longitudinal edge for engagement with the waist. To permit these tongues to project through upon the inside of the skirt in position to engage the waist, the pockets in the waist band are provided with suitable lengthwise extending slits or openings through which the tongues are exposed.
I claim:
1. A combined skirt supporter, placket closer, and waist holder comprising plates pivotally connected at their lower ends to each other, strips extending laterallyfrom the upper ends of the plates, means for detachably holding the plates together, and tongues projecting laterallyfrom the strips and having serrated inner longitudinal edges for engagement with the waist.
2. The combined sln'rt supporter, placket closer and Waist holder comprising complemental flat plates pivotally connected at their lower ends to each other, integral strips extending laterally from the upper ends of said plates, tongues struck from said integral extensions and extending lengthwise of the same the longitudinal edges of the tongues being toothed.
3. The combined skirt supporter, placket closer and waist holder comprising complemental flat plates pivotally connected at their lower ends to each other, integral strips extending laterally from the upper ends of said plates, and tongues bent inwardly from the central portions of the strips and eXtend- 15 ing lengthwise of the same, the inner longitudinal edges of said tongues being adapted to engage the Waist.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of 20 two subscribingwitnesses.
ROBERT SURRY VALENTINE.
