GARMENT-SUSPENDERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 14:, 1911.
Application filed September 20, 1909. Serial No. 518,610.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, IRVING M. WEBBEB, a citizen of the United States, residing at Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of lVisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garnientsuspenders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention consists in what is herein particularly set forth with reference to the accompanying drawings and pointed out in claim of this specification, its object being to provide yielding garment suspenders of more than ordinary elasticity and durability in which provision is had for ready renewal of elastic band elements thereof that may become unserviceable.
Figure 1 of the drawings represents a front elevation of a pair of plates employed as parts of garment suspenders in accordance with my invention; Fig. 2, a similar view of a fragment of the suspenders, and Fig. 3, a transverse sectional view of one of said plates, this view being indicated by line 3-3 in Fig. 1.
Referring by numerals to the drawings, 1 indicates one, and 5 the other of a pair of plates to which an0n-elastic main strap 6 1 elastic bands 7 and tab straps 8 are connect ed, similar plates and bands being preferably employed as parts of each branch of trouser suspenders. The plate .t is pro vided with a longitudinal slot 9 adjacent to its upper edge for the engagement of an end loop of .the strap 6, this loop being closed by any suitable means, and the plate 5 is provided with longitudinal slots 10 adjacent to its lower edge for the engagement of end loops of the straps 8, these loops being also closed by any suitable means, and said straps are provided with the usual button holes.
Adjacent to the lower edge of the plate 4: and the upper edge of the plate 5 are a series of orifices 11, each orifice being a horizontal slot centrally intersected on one side by a vertical recess and on the other side by a vertically disposed preferably triangular slit through the adjacent edge of the corre sponding plate.
The ends of the elastic-bands 7 are passed through the slits in the plates 4; and 5 and caught in the slots of said plates, as shown in Fig. 2, the vertical recesses in the aforesaid plates afiiording the necessary clearance for the operation. The edges of the plates adjacent to the orifices 11 are rounded to prevent the elastic bands from chafing. The elastic bands are preferably the ordinary flat rubber bands of commerce, and such bands are not only more elastic, but they will retain their elasticity longer than the elastic webbing commonly employed in the manufacture of suspenders. Should any of the bands become broken they may be readily replaced at small expense, and thus the service of the suspenders may be prolonged indefinitely. It is also to be understood that the arrangement of the elastic bands issuch that the plates to which they are connected may have side play in either rment suspender, two plates conrespectively to a main strap and a ta nd of the Suspender, said plates each provided with orifices which are each in the form of a slot parallel to a horizontal edge of the plate and intersected on one side by a central vertical recess and on the opposite side by a central open vertical slit through the adjacent plate edge, and elastic bands caught at their ends in the slots of the respective plates, clearance for the hands being afforded by the slits and recesses of the plates between which said bands form an elastic connection.
