Strapless belt loop suspenders - and method of suspension of lower garment and improving the appearance of the upper garment

Abstract

The method and apparatus pertains to conjoining the upper and lower garment to achieve additional support for the lower garment with out the need for suspender straps. At the same time the apparatus remove wrinkles and bulging material in the upper garment that is tucked in. A high adhesive rubber pad is attached to a durable waistband bracket that supports the belt loops which are attached to the waistband which supports the weight of the lower garment. Multiple strapless belt loop suspenders contribute to the support of the weight of the lower garment The additional holding power of the strapless belt suspenders will allow the user the freedom of wearing the lower garment at the height wanted without the use of straps. This extra support will allow the user to show better physical posture by allowing the stomach to be pulled in without their lower garment dropping. The apparatus is comfortable to wear, easy to install or remove and allows the user to leave them in place on the waistband when lowering or removing the lower or upper garment.

1 . A method to support the lower garment and at the same time gently pulling the upper garment in a downward direction into the lower garment, producing a neat and presentable appearance of the upper garment. The support is accomplished without the need for shoulder straps over or under the upper garment. This method comprises: 
 a. that the belt loop suspenders has a plastic bracket that has an oval pad molded over and around an oval portion of the plastic bracket encapsulating it.    b. the strapless belt loop suspenders have an oval pad that has high adhesive properties.    c. the oval pad has a very low reading on the Shore A Scale when testing with a Durometer.    d. the oval pad has seven symmetrically positioned holes on both sides of the pad for better adhesion and appearance.    e. a right offset bracket to allow the hook to be hidden from sight in the right belt loop.    f. the strapless belt loop suspenders have a left offset bracket to allow the hook to be hidden from sight in the left belt loop.    g. left and right brackets can be worn on the waistband in the front and or also on the rear side of the hips.    h. front and rear brackets are interchangeable.    i. user can wear two or more brackets with pads depending on the users need for support.    j. a 90 degree bend in the bracket that allows the bracket to slide over the waistband of the lower garment.    k. the oval pads are comfortable to wear and have a high gripping power when pressed against clothing.    l. the gripping power of the rubber pads when pressed against clothing is so great that when a plurality is used a large amount of holding power is created.    m. this holding power is transferred through the pad to the bracket directly to the belt loop.    n. the direct support of the strapless belt loop suspenders eliminates the need to have a belt worn as long as there is a snug fit of the lower garment to the waist.    
     
     
         2 . The method includes how the apparatus is installed or removed and how they work when an upper garment is tucked into the lower garment. 
 a. with the belt fastened, the apparatus is slid on the waistband of the lower garment with the pad facing the person's body. The bracket with the hook end will slide between the belt and the outer side of the waistband. The apparatus is then slid along the waistband to the closest belt loop and because of the offset, the hook can be hidden inside the belt loop and the pad is hidden behind the waistband. The offset is also needed to balance the oval pad so it does not twist out from behind the waistband when force is exerted on the bracket hook.    b. to remove the suspenders to put on a different lower garment, just slide the apparatus away from the belt loop. Next lift the entire apparatus up and off the waistband of the lower garment.    c. when the outer garment is not tucked in and the under garment is tucked in then the rubber pad will adhere to the undergarment.    d. when the person is wearing an undergarment and an outer garment then the rubber pad will adhere to the outer garment.    
     
     
         3 . I claim an apparatus that has a plastic bracket encapsulated with a high adhesive property rubber and bent to form a hook for the waistband and has an offset that hides the hook in the belt loop.  
     
     
         4 . I claim the strapless belt loop suspenders will support the lower garment and at the same time gently pull the upper garment in a downward direction producing a neat and presentable appearance of the upper garment. The support is accomplished without shoulder straps.  
     
     
         5 . I claim an apparatus that has a plastic material thick enough and durable enough to withstand the forces encountered while engaged in normal sports and daily wear.  
     
     
         6 . I claim an apparatus consisting of a plastic bracket and oval rubber pad for easy attachment to a belt loop.  
     
     
         7 . I claim an apparatus consisting of a plastic bracket and a rubber covering that will not be damaged by machine washing if the user forgets to remove them from the lower garment.  
     
     
         8 . I claim an apparatus consisting of a plastic bracket and a rubber covering that is heat resistant up to a temperature that it will not be damaged in a clothes drier if the user forgets to remove them from the lower garment.  
     
     
         9 . I claim that this apparatus allows the user to easily unbuckle their belt and drop their lower garment without restrictions.  
     
     
         10 . I claim that this apparatus allows the user to easily raise their lower garment and buckle their belt without restrictions.  
     
     
         11 . I claim that this apparatus will allow the user to pull their stomach in for better posture and eye appeal without their lower garment dropping down.  
     
     
         12 . I claim that the strapless belt loop suspenders will keep the lower garment up and the upper garment tucked in when the lower garment has tension on the waist of the user and no belt is used.  
     
     
         13 . I claim that the area of the belt loop suspender that normally is covered by the belt will allow the color of the lower ferment to show through the plastic. This same area of plastic can have a design or picture for decoration.
