CHARLES R. WOOD, F DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
This invention relates to improvements in pockets and more particularly to an improvement of the construction of a pocket similar to that disclosed in my prior Reissue Patent #215,64- granted July 10, 1923, for rule pocket, Patent # 1,5,29,820, granted March 17, 1925, for rule pocket and Patent #1,f77,925, granted Deceinber 18 1923, for overalls. The pockets disclosed in the above mentionedpatents are all of the lock type and all intended for use as rule or plier pockets; Each of these pockets has a verti cal or substantially vertical opening formed therein adjacent the upper end thereof between the side, edges of the pocket and through which the pliers or rule may be inserted. When the inserted article is in position within the pocket, it shifts to one side or the other of the pocket with the result that it is outof alignment withthe opening and accordingly will not escape therethrough'when the garment is flexed, asduring bending movements of the leg of the wearer or when the garment is inverted. It will, of course, be obvious that in a construction of this character more'or less time is lost in removing the implement from the pocket. Where the workman is constantly bending his leg or assuming postures where the pocket is inverted, this lossof time is not so great as the loss of time occasioned by having to continually pick up the implement. l/Vhen, however, the workman is em ployed at a task where he has frequent use for the implement and at the same time 1s not so occupied that thepocket is inverted or the leg flexed to any great extent, the necessity for fishing for the implement becomes aggravating. Furthermore, 1n a pocket of this type, if any small article, such as a nut,'small-bolt or screw is inadvertently dropped into the pocket, it is diflicult to remove therefrom until the garment is 're-' moved. Accordingly, an important object of the invention is the provision of a pocket of: this character. so constructed that the lock pocket is provided and at the same time the construction is made such that when the lock pocket is not necessary, a. second pocket is provided at the same'location as the lock pocket into which the implement may be slipped duringsuch periods.
A further object. of the invention is to provide a device of this character in which the material necessary for the construction of the pockets is materially reduced and in which the lock pocket discharges into the ordinary pocket, so that in order to remove small articles from the bottom of the lock pocket, it is simply necessary to extend the fingers into the/ordinary pocket associated therewith.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a pocket of this character so constructed that the sections of the pocket may be produced from scraps of material and may be cut in the most convenient manner, i. e., with the goods doubled upon itself.
These and other objects I attain by the construction shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention and wherein Figure 1 is a side elevation of a fragment of. a garment having a pocket constructed in accordance with my invention applied thereto, portions of the garment being broken away to show the construction of the pocket;

Figure 9 is a combined view of the pieces from which the pocket shown in Figure 5 is formed;
Figure 10 is a transverse sectional view showing a modification of the upper section of the pocket. I
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, the double pocket consists of innerand outer walls, the inner wall being preferably aportion of the body 10 of the garment. rThe outer wall is formed in upper and lower sections 11 and 12, the secthe sections 11 and 12 is greater than the overall length of the pocket, so that adia-.
cent edges of these sections overlap, the upper edge of the section 12 being arranged outermost. The upper section is stitched to the inner wall along'its upper edge at 15 and along its side edges at 16, while the lower section 12 is secured at its bottom to the inner wall by stitching 17 and at side edges to the inner wall by continuations of the stitching 16. At the overlapping portions of the pocket, the stitching 16 ere tends through both the upper and lower sections and the inner wall. The upper edge of the lower section is unsecured to thereby provide a transversely extending pocket mouth 18, while the upper section 11 is provided intermediate its edges with a substantially vertical opening 19, providing a longitudinally extending pocket mouth.
In the form shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4'.- the upper section consists of two pieces 2 and 21 exactly similar in construction and each forming one-half 'of the pocket wall. The combined width. of these pieces is greater than the width of the pocket, so that adjacent edges of the pieces overlap at 22 to provide a closure for the mouth of the pocket 13. These adjacent edges arose cured together for a short distance at their upper ends, is indicated at 23, and at their lower ends are stitched to one another by vertical stitching 241-, the upper end of which is arranged slightly below the level of the upperend of the section 12 of the completed pocket, so that this stitching is hidden from view. The lower end of the sections 20 and 21 may be hemmed, if so desired.
In the form shown in Figures 5 to 9 which disclose the preferred embodiment of my invention, the upper section is formed of two pieces and 26, of which the piece 26 is areversed duplicate of the piece forn'iing the section 12. The piece 25 at its upper end is made of such width that it just overlaps the smaller upper end of the piece 26 to permit connection thereof, while at its lower end, the piece 25 is made of such width that it overlaps the larger lower end of the piece 26 for a considerable distance and to a point at approximately the center of the garment. The overlapped lower edges of the pieces 25 and 26 are secured together by horizontal stitching 27 which is con cealed by the upper end of the lower sec tion 12. In this form, both pieces 25 and 26 are connected to one another andto the inner wall by the stitching 16 at one side of the garment-at their lower side edges and i at their upper end are connected to one another and the inner wall by the stitching 15. It will be noted that in the construction first referred to, the sections 20 and 21 may be simultaneously produced by folding a piece of cloth and cutting therefrom the outline of the sections, while in the form last re.- ferred to, the piece 26 and section 12 may be similarly produced. Thus, the work of cutting the'pocket is reduced to a minimum, a pocket is provided having the advantages desired and this pocket may be produced fromiscraps of material which would otherwise be wasted. In each construction', the pocket is formed of three pieces, two of which are reversed duplicates.
It will, of course, be obvious that the pocket constructions hereinbefore set forth are capable of a certain range of change and modification.
upon the outer surface of the section 26 for the reception of small articles.
Other changes being possible, I do not limit myself to such specific structures except as hereinafter claimed.
I claim 1. 'A safety vpocket comprising an outer wall formed in upper and lower sections and an inner wall, the upper section beingformed of two pieces of material and being stitched lUU about its side and top edges to the inner wall, adjacent edges of the pieces of material being secured to one another adjacent the top and bottom of the pieces and being left unsecured intermediate these points to provide a pocket. opening, the lower section at its upper end overlapping the upper section, said bottom sectionbeing secured to the]: inner wall at its side and bottom edges on y. r Y
2. A garment pocket comprising inner and;
tion being secured to the inner wall at its bottom edge, said upper section having a pocket opening intermediate the side edges thereof.
3. A safety pocket comprising an outer w ll formed in upper andlower sections and an inner wall, the upper sectionbeing formed of two pieces of material and being stitched about its side and top edges to the inner wall, adJacent edgesof the-piecesof material being secured to one another adjacent the top and bottom of the pieces and being left unsecured intermediate these points to provide a pocket opening, the lower section at its upper end overlapping the upper section, said bottom section being secured to the inner wall at its side and hotduplicates.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature.
