1,566,059 L. HAMMOND GARMENT POCKET Filed April 8, 1924 KNVENTOR [R W W ATTORNEY Patented Aug. 26, 1924 UNITE STATES LYMAZBT I. HAMMOND, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
GARJJIEN'I' FOCKET.
Application filed April 6,
T all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LYMAN P. HAMMOXD, a citizen of the United States, and resident of New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garment Pockets, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to garment pockets and has for its object to provide an improved construction of pocket especially intended for overalls or work whereby to permit of tools being carried without tearing or wearing through the bottom of the pocket, and without creating strain at the crotch of the garment when the wearer sits, bends, or stoops.
Ordinary overall pockets, such as those on the hip, are of the patch type. With such pockets a long tool carried therein tends to punch through or tear the bottom of the pocket when the wearer bends over because the bottom of the pocket follows the body of the wearer. Likewise the strain in the garment created when the wearer bends results in tightness at the crotch, particularly if the tool be at the inner portion of the hip pocket. This increases with age and repeated washing because of shrinkage.
The object of this invention is to provide a combined pocket partly of the patch and partly of the pouch type, so constructed and arranged that the lower end of the pocket is free, so that when the wearer bends over, the pocket can remain practically straight by separating at the bottom in a tangent from the body. Thus there is no excessive strain on the pocket due to the tools therein, or at the crotch, when the wearer bends over. Such a pocket will be inexpensive to produce and will be desirable for overalls because of greater durability and con venience. In order to minimize the chance of catching a hip pocket containing tools on projections, I have found that the bottom of the pocket may be loosely secured to the body of the garment by a strap still permitting sufficient flexibility to permit the wearer to sit, bend, or stoop and avoid the strains caused by tools carried in the pockets.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a pocket embodying the invention,
garments, I
1924;. Serial No. 704,909.
Fig. 2 is a section on the line :22 of Fig. 1.,
Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3- of Fig. 1,
Fig. 4 shows a modification,
Fig. 5 is a vertical section of Fig. l, and
Fig. 6 shows the manner of use.
1 is the body of the garment, such as the hip of a pair of overalls having secured thereto a hip pocket of the construction embodying the invention. This pocket comprises a piece 2 secured to the body of the garment by vertical stitching 3 only to the lower edge of the patch portion of the pocket to leave. the lower pouch portion free and the vertical stitching 4: on the opposite edge of the pocket, extending down the patch portion and the pouch portion of the pocket to or near the lower corner, as shown in Fig. 1. 5, 6 are stay stitching. Secured to the inside. of the piece 2 by stitching 7 is the inside piece 8 which is itself secured to the body 1 by stitching 9. The outer piece 2 can be integral with inside piece 8, or the pouch portion can be of one piece sewed across the outside to the bottom of the patch piece, or the pouch portion can be of separate pieces. A pocket is thus formed partly of the patch type, and partly of the pouch type, and so constructed that a tool can lay straight therein even when the wearer bends over as in Fig. 6. The object of attaching the outside nearly to the bottom, as in Figure 1 is to reduce catching on projections, but this is not essential, as the entire pouch portion can swing, as in Figures 2, 4 and 5.
In Fig. i the vertical stitching to the body on each side of the patch portion terminates at the lower edge of the patch portion to permit the entire pouch portion to swing. If desired, a strap of elastic or inelastic material can be attached between. the otherwise free lower edge of the pouch portion and the body of the garment below the pocket. This serves as an alternative method of preventing the pocket from catching on projections, as the strap when straightened out acts as a sliding or deflecting surface to projections.
From the foregoing description, it will be seen that a pocket of novel and advantageous characteristics is produced which will commend itself to artisans and others who wear overalls and desire to vcarry tools in the hip pockets thereof without having their movements restricted orcausmg the tools to tear or punch through.
The invention is not to be restricted to the location and details herein. shown nor to pockets solely for tools except as required by the terms or the appended claims.
I claim:
1. In overalls or the like, a rear outside pocket consisting of an upper patch. portion secured at opposite sides only to the garment body, and a lower pouch portion forming the bottom of the pocket and movable relative to the garment body at the bottom.
2. In overalls or the like, a rear outside pocket consisting of an upper patch portion secured at its opposite sides only to thegarment body, and a lower pouch portion forming th bottom of the pocket and 3. In overalls or the like, a rear outside pocket consisting of an upper patch portion secured at its opposite sides only to the garment body, a lower pouch portion form ing the bottom of the pocket and having at least one lower corner portion movable relative to the body, and means preventing interference with projections.
4:. In overalls or the like, a rear outside pocket consisting of an upper patch portion secured at its opposite sides only to the garment body, a lower pouch portion forming the bottom of the pocket and having at least one lower corner portion. movable relative to the body, and a strap connecting the bottom of the pouch portion and the garment body.
Signed at New York, in the county of New Yorkand State of New York, this 2nd day of April, A. D. 1924. a
LYMAN P. HAMMOND.
