Description
- The present invention relates to a button comprising a capped button body for attachment to a garment by means of a tack adapted to be joined with the button body, and more particularly to a button assembled of a button body, a cap fitted thereover and an anvil plate interposed between the button body and the cap.
- A button of this type is disclosed in the earlier European patent application 84 104 271.6 falling within the terms of Article 54(3). This prior button comprises a mushroom-shaped button body, a cap fitted over the button body and an anvil plate held stationarily in position between the button body and the cap. The button body and the cap of this button having marginal walls provided with interengaging projections and protuberances serving a stiffeners for reinforcing the marginal walls against forces tending to deform these marginal walls. When attaching such a button to the garment, the tack is forced through the garment fabric into the button and anchored in place as it is deformed against the anvil plate. Buttons of this type have a drawback in that the anvil plate is apt to shift out of place within the button under the influence of pressures exerted peripherally to the button. Some of the garments, such as denim jackets or denim pants, are washed with pebbles or small stones in a turbulent stream of water or a detergent solution for processing the same into a finished product deliberately having a worn-out surface appearance. During this stone washing, the pebbles impinge upon the button head and thereby deform the same with the result that the anvil plate is loosened to move randomly within the button.
- This creates a harsh noise which may be minor with a single button, but will grow offensively louder the more there are used such defective buttons as in the case of jackets or the like.
- The present invention seeks to provide a button having a resiliently deformable means capable of absorbing externally applied impact forces thereby maintaining its plate part in position against displacement which would otherwise result in objectionable noise.
- The present invention further seeks to provide a button structure which will find useful application particularly with denim type garments which are finished by stone washing.
- According to the present invention, there is provided a button for attachment to a garment fabric by a tack having a shank which engages through the garment fabric with the button, said button comprising:
- (a) a button body including a hollow hub for receiving therethrough the shank of the tack, and an annular flange extending outwardly from an end of said hollow hub, said annular flange including a flange base contiguous to said hollow hub, and a first peripheral wall extending around said flange base; (b) a cap mounted on said button body and having a circular top wall and a second peripheral wall extending around said top wall and fitted over said first peripheral wall; and (c) an anvil plate held between said button body (b) and said cap and having a peripheral portion disposed against said flange base; (d) said flange base having an annular rib disposed concentrically therewith and supporting said peripheral portion of said anvil plate and an annular trough disposed outwardly of said annular rib, (e) said anvil plate having a thickness greater than the distance between a distal edge of said first peripheral wall and a top surface of said annular rib; and the maximum diameter of said plate being smaller than the inside diameter of said first peripheral wall and larger than the outside diameter of said annular rib and (f) said button having said anvil plate urged against the top wall of the cap by the annular rib of the annular flange for being held resiliently in position therebetween, and an annular cavity disposed around a peripheral end face of the plate and including a first space disposed between the peripheral end face of the plate and the inside of the first peripheral wall, and a second space disposed between the distal edge of the first peripheral wall and the inside of the top wall of the cap, wherein the first and second peripheral walls can be respectively deformed or flexed inwardly when an external force or pressure is applied thereto, and then returns to its original position upon the removal of the pressure.
- Many other advantages and features of the present invention will become manifest to those versed in the art upon making reference to the detailed description and the accompanying sheets of drawings in which preferred structural embodiments incorporating the principles of the present invention are shown by way of illustrative example.
- Figure 1 is a vertical cross-sectional view of a button embodying the present invention, showing the same disassembled;
- Figure 2 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the button of Figure 1;
- Figure 3 is a bottom view of Figure 2; and
- Figure 4 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the button body of Figure 2 with a tack shown attached to a garment fabric.
- As shown in Figures 1 and 2, a button generally designated A comprises a metallic button body B having a double-tubed
hollow hub 10 and anannular flange 20 extending outwardly from an end of thehollow hub 10, a cap C mounted on theannular flange 20 of the button body B, and an anvil plate P held resiliently in position between theannular flange 20 and the cap C. - The
hollow hub 10 has inner andouter tubes annular bottom 13 extending between respective lower end of the two tubes. Theinner tube 11 receives the shank of the tack as hereafter described and has aninner rim 14 rolled outwardly in its upper end. - The
annular flange 20 has aflange base 21 extending outwardly from an upper end of theouter tube 12 of the hollow hub and a firstperipheral wall 22 flaring upwardly around theflange base 21. Theflange base 21 has outer and innerannular troughs annular rib 25 formed into an annular raised wall disposed between theannular troughs hollow hub 25. Theannular rib 25 defines a top flat face of theflange base 21. The firstperipheral wall 22 shown in Figures 1 and 3 forms a wall slanted preferably at 15 degrees with respect to theaxis 28 of the button A. - The cap C has a
circulartop wall 30 and a secondperipheral wall 31 disposed around thetop wall 30 and turned downwardly. The secondperipheral wall 31 has atab 32 extending from a portion of a peripheral edge thereof for indexing a direction in which the cap should be attached to a garment. Thetop wall 30 shown in Figures 1 and 2 has a substantially flat surface, which otherwise may be a spherical or convex surface (not shown) with radius of curvature larger than the diameter of thetop wall 30. - The anvil plate P is formed into a disc, the maximum outside diameter D1 of which is smaller than the inside diameter D2 of the first
peripheral wall 22 of the annularflange 20 and largerthan the outside diameter D3 of theannular rib 25 of theflange 20. The anvil plate P has a thickness T1 greater than the distance T2 between adistal edge 26 of the firstperipheral wall 22 and the top surface of theannular rib 25. The anvil plate P may be formed into a polygonal plate (not shown). - When assembled as shown in Figures 2 and 3, the button A receives therein the plate P placed on the
annular rib 25 and then the cap C is fitted over theannular flange 20 by deforming the secondperipheral wall 31 radially inwardly by a presser means (not shown) for engaging the secondperipheral wall 31 with the first peripheral wall 2 of theannular flange 20. - The assembled button A shown in Figure 2 has the anvil plate P urged againstthe
top wall 30 ofthecap 3 by theannular rib 25 of the annularflange 20 for being held resiliently in position therebetween, and anannular cavity 27 disposed around a peripheral end face of the plate P and enclosed by respective peripheral wall portions of the cap C and of the annularflange 20. Theannular cavity 27 includes a first space d1 disposed between the peripheral end face of the plate P and the inside of the firstperipheral wall 22, and a second space d2 disposed between thedistal edge 27 of the firstperipheral wall 22 and the inside of thetop wall 30 of thecap 3. - Accordingly, the button A is constructed to provide a hollowed peripheral portion therearound, wherein the first and second
peripheral walls - With this resiliently deformable hollowed structure, the button A can absorb the external force exerted on the peripheral edge portion and maintain the plate P resiliently in position.
- In use, the button A is attached to a garment fabric F by a
tack 40 which has ahead 41 and ashank 42 projecting centrally therefrom and having afree end portion 43, whereupon theshank 42 is pierced through the fabric F into theinner tube 11 of thehollow hub 10 and forced againstthe anvil plate P for thereby bending theend portion 43 in one direction as shown in Figure 4. At this time, the deformed shank firmly engages with theinner rim 14 of thehollow hub 10 and hence secures the button A to the garment. Theend portion 43 of theshank 42 may be constructed to be deformed radially outwardly, instead of being bent, into locking engagement with the entire circumference of theinner rim 14 of thehollow hub 10. - Some of garments, such as denim jackets or denim pants, where the buttons have been attached, are washed with pebbles in a turbulent stream of water or a detergent solution for producing a finished product of garment having a worn-out surface appearance. During this washing, the button A is subject to an externally applied impact force or pressure in a direction indicated by an arrow Gin Figure 2 due to the pebbles impinged on the peripheral edge portion of the button head. However, the button A aborbs such impact force G by being resiliently deformed in its peripheral portion for thereby maintaining the anvil plate P in position, wherein the first
peripheral wall 22 is resiliently flexed towards the plate P, or otherwise the deformable peripheral portion of the button head is resiliently deformed outwardly about theannular rib 25 in an alternative direction indicated by either arrow g1 or g2 in Figure 2 in such a manner that the space between theflange base 21 and thetop wall 30 does not substantially spread. Thus neither the cap C nor the anvil plate P is loosened from its tight engagement, established by assembling the button A, respectively with the button body B and with a combined retaining structure of the cap C and the button body B. - This shock absorbing mechanism of the button A is detailed hereafter:
- The first
peripheral wall 22 of theflange 20 is spaced from the plate P by the space d1, while keeping thedistal edge 27 thereof free from thetop wall 30 of the cap C by the space d2. A lower end of thefirst wall 22 is merged with theouter trough 24 of theflange base 21 which in turn extends to the stationaryannular rib 25 held against a lower face of the plate P. Accordingly, the firstperipheral wall 22 can be resiliently deformed or flexed towards the plate P about thestation rib 25, or otherwise the combined peripheral edge portion of the button head including a peripheral annular portion of thetop wall 30 of the cap and theouter trough 24 can be deformed resiliently either upwardly in the direction of arrow g1 or downwardly in the direction of arrow g2 as viewed in Figure 2, when is applied thereto with the impact force G due to the stones hit on the peripheral edge portion of the button head, whereupon the impact force G is absorbed through the resilient deformation in a portion of theflange base 21 disposed between theouter trough 24 and thestationary rib 25. Thus this mechanism ensures that the button A resiliently retains the anvil plate P in position between the cap C andflange base 21.
