Aug. 29, 1950 E. TABER BINDER FOR SHIRT CUFFS AND PLACKETS Filed June 10, 1948 INVENTOR. //a Taber BY X L ATT RNEY Patented Aug. 29, 1950 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE if 2,520,227 I a V BINDER FOR SHIRT CUEFS AND PLACKETS Ella Taber, Feloit, Wis.
Application June 10,1948, Serial No. 32,101
1 Claim. (Cl. 2123') My invention refers toshirt sleeve cuffs and associated placket. The invention is primarily to reduce the cost of manufacture and at the same time provide an ornamental finish, especially applicable to shirts of the sport type that are worn without a coat.
In standard sleeve cuffs, the placket is usually tailored with a wide overlapped placket, having a complicated finish, which is unsightly when the wearer is in shirt-sleeve costume. My invention overcomes such objectionable features, by first providing the attached cuff and sleeve placket with a simple raw edge, which is finished by a bias strip binding, preferably of a contrasting material.
In carrying out my invention, the bias strip is first folded or creased at its edges and thereafter the inner underfolded raw edge of the strip is stitched, at its crease line, to the raw edge or edges of the cuff and placket. The strip is then lapped over the raw edges and its outer folded and creased edge is stitched at the crease line, slightly beyond the first inside stitching, whereby the reinforced binding about the raw edges is completed and the bound placket is approximately flush at its edges, whereby the finished article is inexpensive and at the same time it is ornamental or pleasing to the eye when finished in contrasting materials. Thus, time and workmanship is materially reduced, as well as the cost of material, due to wide laps usually employed.
Furthermore, should the finished binding wear or become frayed, a new binding can readily be attached by cutting a bias strip from the tail portion of the shirt, whereby a new binding would correspond in shade to said shirt.
With the above and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts, substan tially as hereinafter described, and more particularly defined by the appended claim, it being understood that such changes in the precise embodiment of the herein disclosed invention may be made as come within the scope of the claim.
In the accompanying drawings is illustrated one complete example of the physical embodiment of the present invention constructed according to the best mode so far devised for the practical application of the principles thereof.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 represents a face view of a shirt sleeve embodying the features of my invention.
Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic sectional view illusl 2 trating the first step for binding the edges of a cuif.
Fig. 3 is the second step in the binding operation.
Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic magnified cross sectional view through the finished cuff binding, the section being indicated by line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating the binding partly attached to one edge of the sleeve placket.
Fig. 6 is a face view of the folded binding strip; and
Fig. 7 is a flattened out view of the base of the placket showing the reinforced lapped joint of the binder at said base.
Referring by characters to the drawings, A indicates a shirt sleeve and B a cuff suitably attached thereto, the same being provided with the usual placket C. Secured to the placket edges and cuff edges is a binding strip I, which strip, in some instances, for ornamental purposes, is of a different shade or grade of fabric.
The unfinished raw edges of the cuff 2 and also the unfinished raw edge of the placket '2, are shown in Fig. 5 of the drawings. The raw edges are to be bound by a bias strip 3, which strip, as shown in Fig. 6 of the drawings, is provided with folded or creased edges 3-3".
As best illustrated in Figs. 2 to 4 inclusive, in attaching the binding strip 3, the outer wide fold 3' is first attached to the double faced cuff edge 2 by a line of stitching 4, which passes through the crease line of the strip and cuff material, it being understood that the double fabric 2 of the cuff is secured at its raw edge by a line of stitching 4', as shown in Fig. 2.
The binding strip, as shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings, is then folded outwardly and over the unfinished edges of the cuff material and thereafter, as shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings, the
7 inside crease 3", is flatly positioned to the cuff material. Thereafter, at the point of the crease, the inside crease of the strip is secured to the cuff material by a line of stitching 5, as best indicated in Fig. 4.
It will be noted that the finishing line of stitching 5 is slightly spaced from the outer line of stitchin 4, whereby the line of stitching 5 is clear of the inner fold of the strip, to present an inner finish, but entirely disconnected from the inner fold of said strip.
Thus the binding is completed and it is understood that in completing the operation, a single strip is employed to bind placket edges and Cuff edges, it being understood that in binding the placket edges, as shown in Fig, 5 of the drawing, the said strip is simply attached to the raw edge of a single thickness of material 2'.
As shown in Fig. '7 of the drawings, the ends of the binding strip, at the base of the placket opening, are overlapped and provided with a securing line of stitching 6, whereby the base of the placket is reinforced.
Referring to my binding invention for cuffs, it should be understood that the same method of binding may be applied to shirt collars.
I claim:
In a shirt sleeve having an attached opening cuff and a placket extending from the opening of the cuff to the sleeve placket, the placket and cuff havin raw unfinished edges; a binder for the raw edges of the cuffs and placket, comprising a bias strip having folded outer and inner edges for encasing the raw edges of the cuff and placket, the outer foldof the binder stitched 4 to the outer face of the placket and cuff above their raw edges, the binder strip thereafter being folded inwardly over said raw edges and. the inner binder fold being thereafter stitched to the fabric of the placket and cuff above the first line of stitching which secures the outer fold, whereby the sleeve placket and its cuff opening are finished.
ELLA TABER.
