THOMAS AND JOSEPH D. MALKIN, TRADING AS NATIONAL PAD AND BINDING COMPANY, 0F PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, AND ONE-I-IALF TO FREYDBERGKBROS., INC., 0F NEW' YORK, N. Y.
WAISTBAN D Application ined December 24, 1925. serial No. 77,471.
This invention relates generally to waistbands for garments, .with more particular reference to trousers.
IIeretofore resort has been had to various expediente for the purpose of providing a garment with a waist-band machine-sewed thereto in such manner as to give to the i'inished product, at its upper edge, the appearance of having been custom-made. Clothing manufacturers, as a rule, prefer to purchase waist-bands assembled and ready to be attached to the garments, and the principal object of the present invention is the provision of a band possessing all of the qualities to be desired in such an article, which at the same time is exceedingly simple in construction and easy to manufacture, in comparatively long lengths, if desired, which may be cut into segments of the desired waistband lengths, eachof which may be positioned and attached to the garment with the utmost facility by machine stitching in such manner as to present in the finished product the appearance of hand work.
My invention will be more readily understood by referring to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of thisspecification, in which Fig. l is a fragmentary inside elevation, partly brolren away, and Fig. 2 a transverse section of a waist-band embodying my invention;
Fig. 3 is a sectional view illustrating the first step of a process of forming the band;
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 2 showing the position of the waist-band when first attached to the material of the garment and the location of the attaching seam;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary inside elevation partly broken away, andfFig. 6 a transverse section of the upper portion of the finished garment with the waist-band attached.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, in carrying out a practical and convenient process of producing the illustrated embodiment of my invention I first secure near the edge of a ribbon or band 7 of stilfening material, such as canvas, buckram or the like, the overlapping edge portion of a ribbon or band 8 of lining material by a seam 9, as
shown in Fig. 3. vThe lining ribbon 8 is wider than the stiffening ribbon 7, whereby, when the former is folded around the contiguous 4edge of and superposed upon the latter, the free edgeportion of said lining ribbon 8 will project beyond the free edge of said stifening ribbon 7, as shown in Fig. 2.
In this relation, the two ribbons are now machine-stitched together at and along the eXtreme edge of the stiffening ribbon, as indicated at l0. In connection with this stitching l0, it is desirable that the thread in at least a substantial portion of the stitches be laterally directed with respect to the line of the seam. In practice, I prefer to employ what is termed zigzag stitches, although what is known as a felling stitch may equally well answer my purpose, both types being well-known in the garment trade and each the product of machine operation. The laterally-directed stitches pass through the material of the stiffening ribbon 7, thence over and around theextreme edge of said ribbon, whereby said stitching 10 will serve a four-fold function; irst, that of uniting` the two ribbons; second, that of binding the edge of the stiffening ribbon; third, that of providing a guide for the running of the steam which is to secure the waist-band to the garment, as hereinafter described, and, fourth, that of providing in the finished garment an exposed or partially exposed seam in such location and of such character as to have the appearance of hand-work.
In practice, I prefer to make these strips of combined fabrics, as shown in Figs. l and 2, in comparatively long lengths, usually in lengths of fifty and one hundred yards, respectively, which may be rolled, like silk ribbon, and delivered to garment manufacturers in compact form. The garment manufacturerthen cuts from each roll waist-bands of any desired lengt-h which are ready for attachment tothe partially finished garments.
A practical and convenient method of applying the waistband of my invention to a garment, with full realization of all of the desirable features of my invention, is to lirst lay the bands along the outside of the waistline portion of the material 11 of the garment scribed, in that it enables a fold, so far as l concerns the band, of, but a single thickness of material, that'is, the lining strip, Thus the edge of the stiffening ribbon forms a guide for the folding, and a species of 4straight edge for determining the fold. It
also forms a follow line for the connection of the band with the garment. rlhe stitching 12 cooperates with the edge of the stiffening ribbon to clearly indicate the follow line.
It will be noted that in thus folding over the combined materials on the'line of the seam 12, the edge portion of the garment material. 11 is folded upon itself, whereby-the uniting seam 12 is concealed, but the stitching 10, adjacent thereto, with its laterallydirected stitcheswhich is now located immediately above said seam 12, is exposed or partially' exposed to view and apparently is the connecting medium between garment and n product.
waist-band, giving the upper edge of the finished product the appearance of having been hand-stitched.
I have referred to the factthat the stitching 10 serves as a guide in running the seam 12. While the lining material is usually of a light tint or shade, the line of this stitching, even when white threads are employed, is readily discernible bythe operator. But
stitches at the extreme edge of the stifl'ening strip and in part passing around said edge whereby to unite they strips and to bind the edge of the stiifeningstrip, that portion of the lining strip which extendsbeyond the `last named edge of the stiifening strip being free for connection with the garment by a `line of stitching near the adjacent edge of the stiffening strip and through the lining strip only, whereby to enable the band to be connected to the garment through a single thickness'of material and to be folded on the single thickness of material about the edge of the stifening strip as a straight edge.
Signed at New York, in the -county of New York, and State of New York, this 22nd day of December, A. D. 1925.
JACOB MARCUS.A
in the carrying out of my invention the bobbin-thread 10a (Fig. 1) of the stitching 10 t may be red, or any other dark or more readily distinguishable color, and being located on what may be termed the inside of the band and not being drawn through the material of the lining ribbon it may thus be made to serve as a more clearly defined guide without its being in evidence in the finished If desired, a lower seam 13 may be run to permanently secure the lower edge of the band to the material of the garment.
-I claim as my invention:
A made up waistband for trousers comprising a stiffening strip, and a lining strip of greater width upon which the stiHening strip is superposed with the lining strip extending beyond both edges of the stiffening strip, one extended edge of the lining strip beingvturned over upon the stiifening strip adjacent one edge thereof and secured thereto, the other edgeof the stiffening strip being secured to the liningv strip by a line of
