S PATENT FIQE.
HOWARD S. KENNEDY AND CHARLES M. CONNOLLY,
OF TROY, NEW YORK, ASSIGNORS,
BY MESNE ASSIGNMENTS, TO CLUETT, PEABOIDY & 00., INC., 0F TROY, NEW YORK, A
CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
OI EN-BOSOM DRESS-SHIRT.
Application filed June 16, 1911.
To all whom it may concern:
-Be it known that we, HOWARD S. KEN- NEDY and CHARLES M. CONNOLLY, each a citizen of the United States, residing at Troy, county of Bensselaer, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Open-Bosom Dress- Shirts, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to such improvements and consists of the novel construction and combination of parts hereinafter described and subsequently claimed.
Reference may be had to the accompanying drawings, and the reference characters marked thereon, which form a part of this specification. Similar characters refer to similar parts in the several figures therein.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a plan view of the bosom-portion of a dress-shirt embodying the invention. Fig. 2 is a rear plan view of a broken-away edge-portion of the inner bosom-member on a larger scale. Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-section taken on the broken line 33 in Fig. 2.
The principal object of the invention is to facilitate opening and closing for use the bosom of an open-bosom shirt such as a dress-shirt.
In dress-shirts having stifliy starched open bosoms, much difficulty is experienced in inserting and removing the studs which are inserted through buttonholes in the bosom-members along their lapping edges to hold the same together. This is particularly true with regard to the buttonholes near the center of the bosom where it is difficult or impossible for a thumb and finger of the same hand to grasp or manipulate the stud to insert it through the lapping bosommembers.
In carrying out the invention, we make certain of the buttonholes in the inner bosom-member in the form of notches or slits extending inward from the edge of the bosom-member, and terminating in an eyelet-end to receive the shank of the button. With such a construction the stud or button can be first inserted in the usual buttonhole in the outer bosom-member, and then. the inner bosommember can be drawn under the outer bosom-member to draw the shank of the button into the mouth of the notch, and therethrough into the eyelet-end which Patented June 1, 1915.
is adapted to freely receive the shank of th button.
Referring to the drawings wherein the mvention is shown hole, 4, in the outer bosom-member, with a buttonhole in the form of a notch, 6, extending inward from the edge of the bosommember, terminating in an eyelet-end, 7, adapted to freely receive the shank of the stud, 5, the notch, 6, being adapted to re ceive the shank of the stud, 5, and guide the same into the eyeletend, 7, as the inner bosom-member is forced toward and beneath the outer bosom-member until their edges are in the proper lapping position. In this manner the middle parts of the bosom can be secured together before they are secured at either the top or the bottom; but preferably they are first secured together at the bottom as by a stud, 8, upon which the bosom-members swing as they are brought together in forcing the studs. 5, into the notches 6. After the studs, 5. have been located in the eyelet-ends, 7, of the notched buttonholes, the members can be secured together'at the top by a stud, 9, in the usual manner.
The bosom can be opened by first removing either the stud, 8, or the stud, 9, or both, and then simply pulling the bosom-members apart sidewise to withdraw the studs, 5, out through the. notches 6. Bending or wrinkling of the bosom is thus unnecessary either in fastening the bosom-members together or in separating them.
To facilitate the entrance of the stud into the notch, 6, said notch may be slightly V- shaped at its mouth as shown.
We have shown the inner bosommember reinforced along its edge by a fold, 10, of fabric which forms a reinforcing thickness Serial No. 633,472.
along the edge of the bosom approximately along the lineof the outer edge of the eyeletend, 7, as shown in Fig. 2. This fold is stitched to certain of the bosom-plies by a line of stitching, 11, and is also secured by the line of stitching, 12, whereby all of the bosom-plies are stitched together. There is thus formed at the contracted entrance to the eyelet-end, 7, at, 13, reinforced or stiffened points adapted to resist with considerable force the passage of the shank of the stud therebetween, so that accidental Withdrawal of the stud from the eyelet-end is effectively prevented.
What We claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is- 1. An open-front dress-shirt having inner and outer bosom -members provided With means for securing together said memhere at top and bottom, one of said means being pivotal, said outer member being provided intermediately of its ends With a studhole, and said inner member being provided .with a notch extending inward from its edge, and terminating in an eyelet-end opposite said stud-hole in the outer member.
2. An open-front dress-shirt having inner and outer bosom-members provided with means for securing together said mem-' bers at top and'bottom, one of'said means bein ivotal said outer member bein ro- V vided intermediately of its ends ith a studhole, and said inner member being provided with a V-shaped notch extending inward from its edge, and terminating in an eyeletend opposite said. stud-hole in the outer member. i
An open-front dress-shirt having inner portions adjacent to the outer side of said eyelet-end. V Intestimony whereof, We have hereunto set our hands this 14th day of June, 1911.
