' Oct. 2,1923.
. 3 3 w. H. STEVEN$ GARTER Original "Filed July 17 1917 Patented et. 2, i923.
Genres.
Original application filed m 17',
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, .ViL-LIAM H. STEVENS,
a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at New York, in-the county of New York and State of New Yorlnhave invented certain new and useful Improvements i in Garters, of which the'following is a specification. This application is a divisional of my application Serial No. 180,990 filed July 17th, 1917'. r i The invention relates to improvements in garters and oneof the objects'is to provide a one-piece attaching member for garters of such construction that it will securely hold the fabric of the stocking or garment and without danger of tearing, while at the same time it is easily applied to and disengaged from the garment or stocking.
taching member with an attaching portion whereby it may be secured: to the end of the garter fabric without stitching or other positive connecting means. 7
Other objects and aims of the invention, more or less broad than those stated above, together with the advantages inherent, will be in part obvious andinpart specifically referred to in the course of the followingdescription of the elements, combinations, arrangements of parts, and applications of principles constituting the invention; and the scope of protection contemplated will appear from the claims.
In the accompanying drawing, which is to be taken as part of this specification, and in which I have shown merely a preferred form. of embodiment of the invention, Figure 1 is an elevation of the end portion of a garter provided with a form of attaching member embodying my invention; Figure 2 is a similar view illustrating a modified form of attaching member; Figure 3 isa view of a further modified form of attaching member showing it as applied in use; Figure 4 is a perspective view of the attaching member shown in Figure 1; Figure 5 is a view similar toFigure 4 of the attaching member shown in Figure 2; Figure 6 is a view similar to Figures 4 and 5 of the attaching member shown in Figure 3; Figure is a perspective view illustrating a modification of the attaching member shown in Figure 6; and Fi ure 8 is a perspective view ofanother mo ification.
1917, serial No. 180,996, Divided and. this ber26, 1918 ."Seria1'No. 255,782.
Still another object is to provide an .at-
' Referring to the numerals onthe drawing, there is shown at 9 a length. of garter fabric, at the end of which is secured an attaching memben Referring to the attaching member shown in Figure 1, this comapplication filed Septemprisesafiat frame, having an extensivec'ut- 1 out portion 1O,- diminishing into a re-curved slot 11; Preferably the cut-out portion 10 is.
at the upper endof-th eframe and the recurved'slot :11 is symmetrically disposed at the lower endof the frame. Theupper end of the frame is'defined by a: crossbar 12,
around which the fabric'9 may belooped. Between the cut-out portion '10 and the recurved' slot 11 there is defined a tongue 1 1, which is resilient; because the materialof' which the frame is made is sufficiently thin.
Between this tongueand-the adjacent edge of the frame defining the slot 11, the ma-' teria-l of the garment or stocking will be securely held'In-nse a bightv of the material is pulled through the large opening 10, and
then pushed down into, the slot l1,--in which slot it disposes itself evenly,I-avoiding undesirable bunching (see Figure, The
construction of Figures 2 and 5. is similar:
to that ofFigures 1 and 4:, except thatthe crossbar=12 is provided with .aypair of parallel slots '15-, through whichthe garter fabric maybe passed and; in which it maybe held without toning;
In Figures 3 and 6 there is a construction similar to that of Figures 4 and 5, except that the cut-out portion 10, which is symmetrically disposed medially of the upper sewing or other positive fasend of the frame, diminishes into a vertical slot 16, which slot 16 in turn branches into transverse slots 17. Thus there are definedon opposite sides of the vertical slot 16two tongues 18, both resilient. As will be noted in Figs. 6 and 7 the tongues 18 are normally flexed beyond the plane'of the frame, in
which position they provide a relatively wide I slot 16 to permit easy insertion of'the fab ric, but upon the pulling strains exerted;
upon the tongues 18 by the fabric, these tongues 18 approach the plane of the frame and firmly pinch the fabric therebetween.
In the use of this form of the device the ma-f terial is introduced through the cut-out portion lOfthen'forced down through the slot 16 and thence parts of the material into the slot 17 where the material'distributes V itself and 'is held. 7
V a cut-out portion like that of Figure 6 The form of device shown in Figure 7 is similar to that of Figure 6, except that the crossbar 12 is provided with slots as and for the purpose described with reference to the same construction shown in Figure 5.
In Figure 8 there is'a frame provided with diminishing into a vertical slot 16, but there are no transverse branches.
The tongue 14:. as shown in Figs. 1, 2, dand 5 is gradually fleXedto one side of the frame 7 a so that the free end of the tongue is slightly spaced from the slotted openingin the frame By doing this itis not necessary to initially flex the tongue, as in the known art, to one side of the frame to permitinsertion of a portion of the goods to be supported.
or shown in the accompanying drawing Inasmuch as many changes could be made in the above construction, and many apparently widely different embodiments of my invention could be made without departing from the scope thereof, it isintended that all matter contained in the above description shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
It is also to be understood that'the language used in'the following claims is intended to cover all the generic'and specific features of theinvention herein described and all statements of the scope oftheinvention' which, as a matter of language, might be said to fall therebetween.
' QI m y r r 1. garment supporter comprising a'sub stantially'flat open'centered frame, a gripping tongueresiliently connected to said frame and substantially filling the opening thereim the free end of said tongue being frame havingv a cut-out portion and a tongue resiliently connected I jectingdownwardly and inwardly into the. cut-out portion, the free end of said tongue to the frame and pro being normally flexed beyond the. plane. o f V I the frame. v
4:. A garmentsupporter-comprising a flat frame having a" tapering cut-out portion therein diminishing into a 're-curved-slot,
the portion of the frame intermediate the fining a resilient tongue, the free end of cut-out portion and the re-curved slot .de-
said tongue'being normally flexed beyond the plane of the frame.
5. A garment supporter comprising a flat frame having a relativelylarge opening therein, a tongue reslhently connected to the-side wall of the frame andproje'cting inwardlyand downwardly into the opening in the frame, the free end of said tongue being normally flexed-beyond the plane of the frame and adapted tocoact with the bottom Wall and .lower'portionsiof the side walls of the opening to constitute a grip for the garment.
In testimony whereof I affix-my signature.
