Fastening device for items of clothing

i) The invention relates to a two-part fastening device, which consists of a button part and a receiving part that is attached to an item of clothing, without the two parts being able to detach from each other during normal wear.

In the manufacture of clothing, two methods of fastening buttons are used, one relatively simple and the other requires a rather expensive fastening machine. A simple machine can are used for attaching jewelry buttons that are usually sewn directly against the surface of the garment. Another type of attachment is generally required for buttons when they are in t have a so-called neck on their closing action

that keeps the back of the button at a certain distance from the garment so that the button can easily be buttoned through the buttonhole and without undue strain. In particular, relatively slow-moving machines are used for fastening buttons that require a neck because the button attaching machines commonly available do not form a neck. Also, such buttons tend to become loose during use and need to be reattached from time to time. In view of the unavailability of such special stapling machines, it is necessary that buttons that have fallen off have to be reattached by hand, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.

For this and other reasons, attempts have been made to use hooks, snaps or slide fasteners in place of buttons, but the test results have not been able to meet all requirements. Numerous variations of separable fasteners including buttoned fasteners. Elements are known. For the simplest forms it is typical; that these elements consist of receiving elements that can be easily .abegetrennt when in use, even with massive pull under normal wearing conditions. On the other hand, those elements which are permanently assignable variations of such separable fastening elements comprise complex and intricate clamping elements which detract from the appearance of such elements while being economically impractical for the handler. ^:;: - - 3 - '

dels use are. None of the. Known;} offers separable buttons a simple and effective device with separable attachment features without affecting the appearance of such buttons. The task of the present one lies in the creation of such a fastening device Erf in'dur ·.

This object is according to the invention with a fastening device solved, which is characterized in that part of the device as 3rund- or receiving element.mit devices is designed to be attached to one layer, while the other part is used as a button or plug-in element a pin with a head at the happy i-end is formed, where the /, - apfen an ilalsstück with sufficient length to Has inclusion of the other position when the button part through this position is buttoned and that furthermore the base or receiving element with an opening for receiving the tenon jar is provided, wherein the pin head and the opening with against each other veaastharen surfaces is equipped for fixed but releasable joining of the two parts to one another.

A fastening device designed in this way can be attached in a simple manner to items of clothing and, in this respect, differs as a 'conventional' and inexpensive replacement for conventional buttons. The baseplate can be attached to the garment by sewing a pocket while the button part is then snapped into the baseplate. The length of the pin of the button part determines the length of the ais-.

It is obvious that the basic assignment of the both. Parts are used in all fastening devices of a separable type, which are generally intended for a temporal assignment as opposed to a permanent assignment to the recording part.

P The inventive fastening device also allows Attachment or replacement of varying decorative buttons on a piece of clothing on the base element attached there,

It is obvious to any person skilled in the art that the present Fastening device a long felt need for Closure of garments satisfied. It is also apparent from the above that the present fastening device and allows a great variety and great effectiveness in the attachment of the assignable elements a simplification in construction and in use

The various elements of the present device can , unless otherwise specified, consist of a suitable material including wood, metal or plastic, the parts to be inserted must ensure a proper connection, while under normal carrying conditions they must prevent separation. Accordingly, at least the pin part and the generally disc-shaped receiving part is preferably made of plastic material, such as nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester or the like. These materials are selected in particular with regard to their elasticity and other properties related to this. This material can be colored accordingly or decorated in some other way in order to show a colored impression, for example in a special adaptation to the item of clothing. It is also possible that the generally disc-shaped receiving part is colored in such a way that its presence does not stand out against the surface of the garment, while the button part can be colored fashionably.

Further details are given below on the basis of the graphic Representation of exemplary embodiments explained in more detail.

The receiving part 12 comprises a central section 2o an opening for receiving the head 22 of the pin 16. If the pin 16 has such an enlarged and essentially, lent round head 22 has, so is the central opening of the area 2o slightly larger than the diameter of the head 22 in order to be able to introduce it into the opening. Of the central area 2o can also include a rim 24, 24 in order to facilitate the reception of the pin. Around the central area 2o a generally thin base plate can be arranged in one piece (also in the form of a disk) with perforations'28, with which this part can be sewn to the garment. Although this' peil the garment in any suitable and can be assigned in a known manner including by means of brackets, it is desirable for the sake of simplicity that such a base plate is assigned to the item of clothing by sewing it on, the opening 28 opening evenly are distributed in a circle, sewn around by a machine will be able to.

The Pig. 3 illustrates the formation of a circular flange 3o on the receiving part 12 within the central opening 2o through which the head 22 can be pushed, after which the flange 3o comes to rest in a corresponding retention or annular groove of the pin. The flange 3o merges with inclined flanks into the bore openings, the angle of the upper F-flank enclosing a larger angle with the line 32: than the lower ' ^? lank flat. The lines of inclination of the surfaces are denoted by 34f 36 (see FIG. 3).

This difference in the inclination of the surface for the formation of the flange 30 allows the snap-in arrangement of a part of the pin 16 with additional retention, except that a parting is ^{7 seconds.} if there is an earlier wearing condition; when the base plate is fastened to the piece of clothing. -The actual values P of these angles are not critical as long as-the pin part nestles tightly, unclean louvers.

The length 54 of the peg 52 can vary if desired but will usually be of a length that is at least corresponds to the thickness of the fabric of the garment., ■ an, to which the button is to be attached. This length forms the required distance, which was previously cumbersome with the known buttons had to be made when sewing on.

The pin 52 has an enlarged and generally one round, free end 56 and is thus in the opening of the receiving element applicable. Around this free end 56 of the pin To be able to accommodate, a slight expansion and subsequent contraction of the flange in the on nahineelement is sufficient. The elements brought together in this way prevent the elements from becoming detached under normal wearing conditions.
