CORSE T-GOIRE -AD J'US TING VICE Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 30, 1908.
Application filed January 13, 1908. Serial No. 410,591.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MAX SAHLIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Corset-Gore-Adjusting Devices, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof.
The purpose of this invention is to provide improved means of adjusting the spread of lateral gores upon front-opening corsets.
It consists of the features-of construction shown and described as indicated in the claims.
In the drawings :Figure 1 is a perspective view of a corset equipped with this invention. Fig. 2 is a section at the line 2-2 on Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail section at the line 33 on Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a detail section at the line 4t4: on Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a large detail elevation of one of the pivoted strap loops and its connections.
This invention is designed to be applied to front-opening corsets, whose meeting edges at the front opening are reinforced with metal stays for the purpose of rendering them suitably stiff against any tendency to distortion in a sinuous form which might otherwise result from the transverse stress between the detachable fastenings which connect the two meeting edges, and to afiord means for connecting a strap and buckle adjusting device for taking up or letting out a lateral gore situated or extendingon the forward part of the garment at some distance laterally re- IIOVGd from the said reinforced meeting e ges.
In the drawings, the garment is shown provided with pockets, 1, 1, at the meeting edges for the reinforcing stays, 2, 2, which extend in said pockets in the customary manner. The adjustable gores are indicated at 3, 3, extending between stays, 4 and 5, in
Y pockets, -6 and 7, at the converging edges of the adjustable rift occupied by the gore, 3. Usually the buckled adjusting straps for taking up and letting out the gore extend across the gore only,that is, between the stay ockets, 6 and 7 ,and when the gore is to e adjusted closely, the interval is inadequate to accommodate satisfactorily buckled strap connections; and especially this is true of such buckled strap connections which may extend across the gore at the upper part, where, by reason of the convergence of the stays, 4 and 5, the interval between them is quite short, even when the gore is most widely spread. Also since the angle between the two converging edges of the gore is changed by change of adjustment, the angle of the adjusting straps to the gores should be susceptible of corresponding change, for lack of which in the common constructions the buckling straps are distorted and the strain upon them is thrown entirely upon one edge or the other at every stage of adjustment except the one. To avoid both these defects and render the adjustment easier and smoother and prevent the concentration of the strain upon the adjusting straps at one edge thereof, this invention provides a strap-connecting device, 8, which is pivoted to the stay, 2, at the meeting edge, being inclosed in the pocket with said stay, except as to a portion of the strap-eye, 8*, which rotrudes from the seam, 1, which closes t 1e pocket at the side remote from the meeting edge.
The eye, 8, is preferably suitably shaped at the side thereof which is inclosed in the pocket to permit the device to turn freely about its pivotal connection to the stay through the limited angle necessary for accommodating the change of direction of the adjusting strap 9 whichresults from variation in the adjustment of the gore, the form of said edge for this purpose being preferably the arc of a circle about the pivot of the device to the clip. The stitching of the seam,
1 is interrupted at the side bars, 8*, of the eye, the interruption being sufliciently longer than the actual width of the side bars to allow for the change of position of the device as it turns about its pivot for accommodating the strap 9 as indicated. When this device is associated with the most customary form of fastening device employed at the meeting edges, consisting of studs or buttons, 10, mounted on one of the stays, 2, and eyelet clips, 11, mounted upon the stay in the other edge and projecting therefrom so as to be engaged with the stud, 10, the strap-fastening device, 8, is preferably pivoted to the stay, 2, which has the studs or buttons, 10, by means of the stem of said studs or buttons, as clearly shown in Fig. 4.; and the fastening device, 8, at the other side is in that case preferably pivoted to the other stay, 2, by means of the rivet, 12, which secures the eyelet clip, 11, to that stay, as also shown in Fig. 3. The opposite end of the strap, 9, is secured at pocket,
7, said strap being provided with a take-up studs or buttons carried by the stay 1n the opposite meeting edge, and connectlons for buckle, '10, for adjusting it.
I claim:
1. In a front-opening corset havingadjustable'gores situated at opposite sides of the front opening, in combination with stays pocketed in the meeting edges at the opening and gore-adjusting straps attached to the farther edges of the gores respectively; connections for the gore-adjusting straps consisting of strap loops pivoted'to the stays in said meetingedges, in position to be engaged by the adjusting straps extending from the respective remote edges of the gores.
2. In a front-opening corset having adjustable gores situated at opposite sides of the front opening, in combination with stays pocketed in the meeting edges at the opening, and gore-adjusting straps attached to the farther edges of the gores respectively;
disengageable connecting devices carried respectively by the stays in the two meeting edges, and connections for goreadjusting straps pivotally attached to the said stays at the points of attachment respectively of said disengageable devices.
3. In a front-opening corset having adjustable go-res situated at opposite sides of the front opening, vin combination with stays pocketed in the edges meeting at the opening and gore-adj-ustlngstraps attached at the farther edges of the gores respectively; studs or buttons carried by the stay in one of the meeting edges, and means for engaging said the gore-adjusting straps consisting of clips pivoted to the stay in the first meeting edge by means of the studs or buttons respectively, and having a strap eye projecting from the pocket of said stay at the edge thereof toward the gore.
4. In a front-opening corset having adjustable gores situated at opposite sides of the front opening, in combination with stays pocketed-in the edges meeting at the opening and gore-adjusting straps attached at the farther edges of the gores respectively; means for closing the garment at the opening consisting of studs or buttons carried by the .stay in one of the meeting edges, and eyeleted clips carried by the stay in the other meeting edge; connections for gore-adjusting straps at the side having said clips consisting of clips pivoted to the edge stay at that side at the point at which the eyeleted clips are secured to said stay and having a strap eye projecting from the gore pocket at the edge toward the gore at that side of the garment.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand at Chicago, 111., this 10th day of January, A. D., 1908.
