Letters Patent No. 89,152, dated April 20, 1869.

IMPROVE!) GARMENT-SUPPORTER.

The Schedule referred to in these Lettexs Patent and making part of the same To all persons to whom these presents may come:

Be it known that I, JOHN L. KENDALL, of Foxborough, in the county of Norfolk, and State of Massachusetts, have invented a newy and useful Goat or Garment-Supporter; and I do hereby declare the same to vbe fully described in the following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure l denotes a front elevation:

Figure 2, a rear view; and

- Figure 3, a vertical section of the article on an enlarged scale.

The article consists not only of a metallic ring, but a perforated button or attachment-plate hinged to the ring. i

There is also combined with the two a dat annulus or guard-ring,` projecting from the hinge and extending back of the perforated disk or button.

By means of the perforated disk, the ring hinged to it may be secured toa coat or other article of apparel by thread sewed through the eyes or holes of the disk.

The fiat or guard-ring, by being laid against the surface to which the disk is to be sewed, receives the stitches or thread which are extended through it, and serves to sustain the hinge and prevent its disconnection from the ring, when the article is in use.

In the drawings- A denotes the ring.

B, the perforated disk.

a a, the holes, perforations, or eyes thereof.

C, the hinge, and

D, the dat or guard-annulus.

The latter I usually make of a diameter somewhat greater than that of the disk B, which, under such circumstances, I make with a diameter a little less than the internal diameter of the ring.

The object of such a construction of the disk and guard, is to enable the latter to so project beyond the periphery of the disk as to afford a rest or support for The article may consist of the ring and the perfo-` rated disk hinged together, but it is preferable to make it with the addition of the dat guard-annulus, as in such case it is rendered stronger and more elcient.

The article in question is designed to take the place of a common loop, as usually atlxed to a coat for the purpose of enabling it to be suspended from a hook, or peg, such a loop, as usually made, being composed of a piece of tape or braid, and being liable, when in use,

to soon become worn out, or detached from the coat or garment.

I claim the new manufacture of coat or garmentsupporter, or metallic ring A, and `perforated metal disk B, applied or hinged together as and for the purpose specified. l

I claim the combination of the dat guard-annulus D with the perforated disk B, the hinge G, and the ring A, applied together as set forth. l

I claim the arrangement-of the fiat-guard annulus D, so as to project beyond and around the periphery of the perforateddisk, in manner andfor the purpose set forth, when the disk is hinged vor applied to the ring A, as and for the object described.

JOHN L. KENDALL.
