JOSEPH L. VELLS, OF PHILADELPHIA, PA., ASSIGNOE TO THE IVESTON & WELLS MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF OAMDEN, N. J.
BOSOM-PAD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 325,030l dated August 25, 1885.
(No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JosnrH L. WnLLs, a citizen of the United States, residing at lthe city and county of Philadelphia, and State ol" Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rosoni-Pads, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
1o The object of this invention is to provide a bosom-pad or artificial bosom, which shall' combine, among others, the following advantages-to wit, lightness, airiness, resiliency, and naturalistic contour.
The invention consists of a bosom-pad constructed of a fabric of braided elastic steel or other wire, to which fabric the proper conlign ration is impartethas hereinafter described, and shown inthe annexed drawings, of which- 2f) Figure l is a side elevation of a short helix or hollow cylinder of braided steel wire from which the device is formed. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the pad as made from said cylinder. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of two finished pads connected together as they appear ready to be applied to the human form. Fig. 4 is a detail showing the manner ol" securing the ends of the wires.
The invention also consists in details of coustruction, which will be hereinafter explained,
and pointed out in certain ofthe claims.
I shall now proceed to describe what I believe to be the best mode of carrying out my invention. l
By means of known mechanism I braid together over a suitably-shaped core or former (whose diameter is about equal to the dian1eter of the bosompads to be made across the l ase thereof) a series of elastic steel wires, w,
4o thus forming a continuous helix or tubular f. ame. This is divided into short tubes-such as A A, Fig. l-thelength of each of which is about equal to one-halll the distance from the apex to the base-line of the finished pad. I
then draw down the ends of the said tubes, as indicated by the dotted lines in Fig. 1, and introvert the one within the other, as indicated by the dotted lines in Fig. 2, and as shown also by the full lines in said figure. After turning in the ends of the wires of the 5o outer part or frame, A, I secure the free ends of the wires of both parts in any suitable mauner-as, for example, that shown in section in Fig. 4, which consists of a hollow button, P, into which the extremities ofthe wires are inA serted. rIhis button is covered with apiece of cloth, O, while opposite thereto, on the outside of the frame, is a tuft, D, of leather or other material, the cloth and tuft being firmly united by sewing them together through the 6o interstices of the wires.
The finished pads I usually join together permanently by means of au elastic baud, Fi g. 3.
A bosom-pad constructed as hereinbetore described is obviously very light, cleanly, resilient, hygienic, readily applied, unhurtful to the person of the wearer, and not liable to get out of order or out of shape.
The invention is not limited to the precise construction shown. I am aware, however, 7o ofthe fact that bosom-pads of ordinary wiregauze struck into hemispherical shape are old.
\Vhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A bosom-pad of substantially hemispherical form, constructed of an elastic duplex frame formed by drawing down the ends of a tubular wire frame and introverting one end within the other, the free ends of the wire be- 8o ing secured, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
2. In combination with the introverted or duplex wire frame-work, the hollow button D, into which theV extremities of the wires A A are inserted, and the covering O and tuft-, united as described, whereby the parts are held together, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature.
JOSEPH L. VELLS.
