ANTENOR ASSORATI, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
CORSET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 10, `190'?.
Application led November 15,1906. Serial No. 343,535.
To all whom 'tt may concern:
Be it known that I, ANTENOR AssORA'rI, a subject of the King of Italy, and a resident of the borough of Manhattan, in the city and State of New York, have inl vented a new and useful Improvement in Corsets, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to corsets and more particularly to means for strengthening the corsets at the point where the corset bones are subjected to the greatest y,
bending strains under the movements of the body of the wearer.
A practical embodiment of my invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a view of the inside of a pair of corsets, showing the invention as it appears ready for use, Fig. 2 is an enlarged section of a portion of the corset, Fig. 3 is a partial horizontal section taken in the plane of the line A#A of Fig. l, Fig. 4 is a partial inside view showing a modified form, Fig. 5 is a partial inside view showing a second modified form, Fig. 6 is a view in detail of one of the reinforcing disks of oval form instead of circula-r, and 7 is a sectional view in detail of another modified form, of disk.
My invention consists broadly in applying to the inner face of the corsets opposite the bones of the corset, rigid convex faced disks, preferably disks of concaveconvex form. These disks may be either round, oval or any other desired shape in marginal contour and may be made of any material suitable for the purpose, my present experience having proven that aluminium is very satisfactory for the purpose as it is light and rustless.
One of the corsets is denoted by l and the positions of the bones, steels, or other ordinary stiffening materials, are denoted by 2, 3, 4, 5, G, 7, 8 and l0, as is usual. lt-is to be understood that another corset similar to the corset l is to be connected by a suitable lacing ll as is usual, and that these two corsets or corset sections are to be connected by overlapping flaps I2, and 13, as is common. i
To the inner faces of the bones, in the present instance the bones 2 to 7 inclusive, I apply concave-convex disks denoted by 14. In my present form, I have shown one of these disks 14 applied to each set of bones or stiffening devices from 2 to 7 inclusive,` the concavoconvex disks I4 being of sufficient size to substantially span each set or pair of stiffening devices and these disks may be secured by being independently stitched to the corsets through holes 1 5 provided through the walls of the disks near their edges, as shown in Figs. l, 2 and 3; or, the disks denoted by 16, Fig. 4, may be provided with slots 17 through their walls through which a tape 1S may be run as shown in Fig. 4, and the tape itself fastened to the corset at intervals to hold the disks in position; or the disks I4 may be provided with cords 19, as shown in Fig. 5, extended continuously through the perforations l5 therein and the cords themselves fastened to the corset at intervals between the disks to hold the disks in proper position opposite the bones or stiffening devices. Instead of being round, as shown in Figs. l to 5, inclusive, the disks may be oval in shape, as shown at 20, Fig. 6. It is obvious that other shapes might be chosen in peripheral contour if so desired. By locating these rigid concave-convex disks on the inner faces of the bones or stiffening devices, the bending of the body of the wearer to a sharp angle, particularly over the hips, willY prevent the stiffening devices from taking a sharper angle than the curve of the disk which will effectually prevent them, in general, from taking a bend so sharp as to become broken and in the event breakage should occur the body of the wearer is completely protected from these broken ends and from the injuries which often arise from such broken ends.
While I prefer to form the disks concave-convex because of their lightness, and because of the yielding which they permit to the stiffening devices at the point of bend to prevent them from breaking, it is obvious that some of the advantages of the invention pertain to the form where the disk is flat or only slightly concave on the outer side, as shown in Fig. hence I do not wish to limit myself strictly to the plain concave-conveX nor to the particular means of fastening the disks to the corsets.
Corsets reinforced as above have proved, under test, free from annoyance to the wearer and have effectively prevented the breaking of the corset bones or stiffening devices under the most severe bending tests when in use.
What I claim isz- 1. A corset provided on its inner face with a series otrigid independent shields having their faces toward the body of the wearer rounded, the said shields being located in proximity to one another opposite the inner faces of the bones or stiffening devices.
2. A corset provided with a seriesA of rigid concaveconvex disks secured to the inner face of the corset in proximity to one another with their concave sides toward the corset bones or stirtening devices and their convex sides toward the wearer, the said disks being located along the line where the corset stittening devices are subjected to the greatest bending strain.
In testimony, that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have signed my name in presence of two witnesses, this 14th day of November, 100G.
ANTENOR ASSORA'II.
