COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
A Sleeve-holder.
ALBERT HARVEY 64 Cleethorpe Road Great Grimsby Lincolnshire Watchmaker
do hereby declare the nature of his invention for A SLEEVE-HOLDER and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained.in
and by the following statement :-
This invention consists of a holder or fastener so contrived as to fasten or hold
together a bandage said bandage being used to bind the sleeve of an under garment.
in the position desired while and till after the sleeve of a garment worn over such
under garment is put on and adjusted.
A cord is affixed by one end to the means of fastening the holder the other end of
the cord is passed down the sleeve of the outer garment so that by pulling the cord
the holder that fastens the bandage can be undone and the fastener with the bandage
attached can be withdrawn down the sleeve.
I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing in
which,
In Figs. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12 and 13 the loop F is designed to
receive and to be the means of permanently fastening by sewing or other secure
manner of affixing one end of the band G.
Figs. 3. 6. 10 and 13 show the band G so affixed.
In Figs. 1. 2. 3. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12 and 13 the rectangle B. together with the
tongue A form a three bar buckle through which may be passed that end of the
band G. that is not already fastened to the loop F.
In Figs. 1. 3. 4. 6. 7. 9. 10. 11 and 13 A is moveable downwards.
In Figs. 2. 5. 8 and 12 A is moveable upwards.

For the purposes of this Specification the parts hereinafter referred to as securely
affixed mean parts so affixed or connected as to make each individual piece a
corporate part of the whole and render them for all mechanical purposes as strongly
affixed one to the other as if cut or fashioned in one solid and continuous piece.
In Figs. 1. 2 and 3. B. F. H and D are securely affixed.
In Figs. 1. 2 and 3. A. O. E. M. and I. are securely affixed.
In Figs. 1. 2 and 3. E. E. are tubes sliding on the rods D. D.
In Figs. 2 and 3 an elastic band that has been affixed to the loops H. H. is carried
downward and also affixed to the short rod O.
In Figs. 4. 5. and 6 the two tubes C. C are two sides of a rectangle that is for the
same purposes as the rectangle B. in Figs. 1. 2. 3. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12 and 13.
In Figs. 5 and 6 an elastic band that has been affixed to the loops marked H. H. is
carried downward and affixed to the neck of the loop I.
In Figs. 4. 5. and 6 A. D. and I. are securely affixed."
"securely affixed."
In Figs. 4. 5 and 6. F. C. and H. are
In Figs. 4. 5 and 6 the tubes C. C slide on the rods D. D.
In Figs. 7. 8. 9 and 10 A. K and I are "securely affixed."
In Figs. 8 and 10 an elastic band is shown affixed to K and L.
In Figs. 7. 8. 9 and 10 F. B. L. and P. are "securely affixed."
In Figs. 11-12 and 13. A. R. and I are securely affixed.
In Figs. 11. 12 and 13 F. B and P. are securely affixed.
In Figs. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12 and 13 P is a tube containing and giving direction to
the moving parts.
To each of Figs. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. and 10. can be affixed an elastic band such
band being for the purposes of upholding the part A and also of allowing the said
part A. to be withdrawn when moderate force is applied,

page_text: Figs. 2: 3. 5. 6. 8' and 10 show the elastic band so affixed.
In Figs. 11. 12 and 13 J is a spiral spring said spring being for the purposes of
upholding the part A and also of allowing the said part A to be withdrawn when
moderate force is applied.
In Figs. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12 and 13. to the loop I will be attatched
a cord of length sufficient to pass down and out from the sleeve of an outer garment.
In Figs. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12 and 13. A in concert with the
rectangles B and C. is to hold the end of the band G that is not fastened to the
loop F. A is also for the purpose of releasing the band G such release being effected
by withdrawing the part A downward.
Through the loop formed by the band G as shown in Figs. 3. 10 and 13 an arm
clothed in the sleeve of an under garment may be passed and the band G be drawn
between the parts A and B or as in Fig. 6 between A and C until it tightly
binds the sleeve in such position as the wearer desires.
In putting on the sleeve of an outer garment the cord attatched to I is allowed to
pass.down the sleeve of such outer garment.
On the complete adjustment of such outer garment, by pulling the cord attatched
to I the cord holder and bandage can be withdrawn down the sleeve.
'I do not claim as novel or part of my invention the band G or the cord mentioned
as affixed to loop I.

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare what I claim is.
1. The principle on which the part A is made the manner of its use and application
as a part of a sleeveholder as herein shown and described.
2. The special form and manner of construction of the holders as herein shown
and described they being methods of expressing the principle of the moving
part A. such form of holders being new as to the purposes now purposed to put
them to.
