Collar button. Patented in the German Empire on October 16, 1920.

The subject of the invention is a collar button, the web of which is designed as a resilient fork is, the legs of which end in hooks that are used to hold the flaps in place. To the previously known design such buttons were designed in such a way that the resilient fork legs attach themselves to the webs of the flaps with two inwardly open hooks put on. As a result, the fork legs had to spread apart to insert the flaps while the bars are held in place by the compression of the fork legs was effected. However, such a design has the major disadvantage that the connection between the flaps and legs very soon becomes loose, because after a short period of use the thighs no longer hold tight conclude. This disadvantage is eliminated by the construction according to the invention. she is that the inwardly directed hooks intermesh like a comb and after are open on the outside, so that after the compression of the legs, the insertion of the Folding is possible, while when the legs spring apart, the bearing webs of the Flaps are tightly enclosed by the hooks.

In the drawing is an embodiment of the collar button according to the invention shown on an enlarged scale.

Fig. 4 illustrates the attachment of the flaps to the webs.

Fig. 5 shows the flaps in view.

Figure 6 is a diagram of the leg ends of the web.

The web δ fastened to the button α in the usual way is designed like a fork. The fork legs b ¹ , b ^{2 take on the flaps c 1} and c ² at their upper ends without any fastening means. For this purpose, the fork legs are equipped with inwardly directed, comb-like interlocking hooks d ¹ and d ² , which are open to the outside. The hook d ¹ enters the slot & ² between the hooks d ^{2 of} the leg b ² and the hooks d ² into the slots e ¹ on both sides of the hook d ¹ . By pressing the two legs b ¹ and δ ^{2 together} , the hooks engage in a comb-like manner so far that the webs c ¹ and c ² can be introduced between the hooks from above (FIG. 4). If the legs of the web are then released again, they spring apart, the hooks d ¹ , d ^% wrapping around the bearing webs f ¹ , f ^{2 of} the flaps c ¹ , c ^2. The flaps are thus held in place by the leg ends of the web without any special fastening means.

Compared to the known buttons, the button has the great advantage of the simplest Construction, which also has the advantage of cheapest manufacture. The construction

is also suitable for buttons with only one
Flap.
