SHOULDER PAD Filed July 23, 1946 EVERETT 0. GERRY INVENTOR ATTORNEY Patented Dec. 9, 1952 V UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE SHOULDER PAD Everett D. Gerry, New York, N. Y.
Application July 23, 1946, Serial No. 685,763
2 Claims. 1
shoulder pad adapted to be supplied to clothing manufacturers and tailors ready-made, of various sizes and shapes and applicable to garments of various grades, qualities and designs.
Another object of the invention resides in the provision of a shoulder pad which does not lend itself to hardening and compression and which retains its original shape and condition of pliability and elasticity after steaming, moistening, dry-cleaning and pressing.
A further object of the invention resides in the provision of a shoulder pad which gives the shoulders of garments smoothness and symmetry and which is provided with means for conventional affixation to the garment.
Other objects reside in the efficiency, economy of manufacture, durability and sanitation of the shoulder pad above described.
These objects and other incidental ends and advantages of the invention will hereinafter appear in the progress of the disclosure and as pointed out in the appended claims.
Accompanying this specification is a drawing showing a preferred form of the invention wherein:
Figure '1 is a top plan view of the shoulder pad provided with a covering.
Figure 2 is a sectional view of Figure 1 along the plane 22 thereof. 7 v
Figure 3 is a sectional view of Figure 1 along the plane 3-3 thereof.
In accordance with the invention and the preferred form shown, the shoulder pad generally designated by numeral ID is provided with a resilient body II of a resilient and substantially chemically inert material such as rubber, sponge rubber or other analogous synthetic condensatlon product and as shown is substantially of concavo-convex form in two directions at right angles to each other. The material for body II is chosen for lightness in weight and substantial resistance to heat, moisture and cleaning fluids and the body may be formed therefrom by conventional molding processes.
The shape of body I I may be varied to suit the special needs of garments, but as shown body I I along the upper convex face is highest at the mark indicated by reference character I2 and curves out in three directions from point I2 as indicated by the arrow points I3, l4 and I5.
Body II is provided with a covering generally indicated by numeral I1 and is comprised of a strong flexible fabric indicated by numeral I8 having on the underside a lining [8a of rubberized or plastic material which is inert to cleaning fluids, resistant to moisture and heat and chemically inert to body I I so that the cover for the shoulder pad at no time and under no circumstances will cling to the body or core I I of the pad.
As shown in the drawing the cover I! may be formed from a single piece of textile material and is adapted adjacent the free complementary edges to be heat-sealed or aflixed together at the juxtaposed lining face portions indicated by numerals I9 and 20. It is to be observed that where heat-sealing of the edges of the cover member is used, the temperature employed is higher than the temperature to which the garment is normally exposed for purposes of pressing or steam pressing.
Adjacent the sealed free edges of cover I! and as indicated by numerals 2| and 22, the tailor or manufacturer may apply the needle of any conventional sewing machine to secure the pad adjacent the shoulder of the garment without introducing vents to the interior of the pad since the line of stitching so formed and indicated by numeral 23 is surrounded on each side by the heat-sealed lining portions I9 and 20 as best indicated in Figure 2 wherein a thread 23a is shown to indicate a stitch penetrating the free edge of the pad.
Covering I! for core II assumes the configuration thereof along all surfaces and may be cut and/or formed to shape for this purpose prior to application. As shown in Figure 3 covering 11 proceeds from the front wall 24 of body I I and over and under the upper and lower walls 25 and 26, the lower wall 26 and the upper wall 25 of body I I being suitably shaped to meet the needs of the garment.
I wish it understood that minor changes and variations in the material, integration, size and shape of parts of the invention may all be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A shoulder pad for garments comprising a molded and preshaped integral core of resilient shape-retaining rubber-like composition and having concave-convex and tapering walls, the lower wall being shaped to fit the contour of the shoulder of the wearer and the upper wall being shaped to give symmetry, shape and smoothness to the shoulder of the garment, and a flexible fabric cover having a fluid-proof and heat and chemical resisting material thereon for said core and having a marginal edge beyond the core for afiixation of the pad to the garment.
2. A shoulder pad for garments comprising a molded and pre-shaped integral core of resilient shape-retaining rubber-like composition and being shaped to fit the shoulder of a wearer, and a flexible fabric solvent-resistant treated cover for said core for insulating the core against heating, pressing and steaming operations, the cover having means incorporated therein for at tachment of said pad to a garment.
EVERETT D. GERRY.
