Definitions

  • the invention relates to a button, consisting of a carrier, to which a cover is connected.
  • buttons which comprise a carrier, that is provided with a cover
  • An embodiment which is widely applied is the so-called cloth-covered button, wherein the cover consists of textile material.
  • cloth-covered buttons have the disadvantage, that they are not very resistant to wear. Further, these cloth-covered buttons often look rather monotonous.
  • the button according to the invention is characterized in that the cover comprises a transparent outer foil, provided with a printing on its inner face, which inner face is directed to the carrier.
  • buttons according to the invention may be realized.
  • the cover further comprises an inner foil positioned underneath the outer foil between the outer foil and the carrier.
  • the foil(s) together with a cap of more rigid material may be beaded onto the carrier.
  • This cap may consist of brass, tinplate or the like material.
  • the printing on the inner face of the transparent outer foil may extend over the whole area of this inner face and may consist of at least one body colour.
  • the printing on the inner face of the transparent outer-foil contains at least one body colour, which is locally interrupted.
  • the body colour(s) may leave free one or more open spaces, while as an alternative it is also possible that the local interruptions of the body colour(s) are filled in by one or more transparent colours.
  • a very surprising effect may be obtained when the inner foil is a diffraction-foil.
  • the carrier may be at least partly made of metal.
  • the carrier comprises a conical side wall portion against which the beaded edges of the foil(s) and the cap rest, while the rear end of the conical side wall portion joins a cylindrical side wall portion of the carrier.
  • the carrier may contain a filler part of artificial material or the like, which filler part is positioned between this carrier and the cap.
  • buttons each consist of a carrier 1, to which a cover is connected consisting of an inner foil 2 and an outer foil 3.
  • the outer foil 3 is made of transparent artificial material, e.g. of polyvinylchloride, so that this foil 3 can excellently resist external influences, such as chemical influences, temperatures or the like.
  • the inner foil 2 may also be made of artificial material.
  • the outer foil 3 is provided with a printing on its inner face, i.e. the face directed to the inner foil 2. It is for example possible that the printing on the inner face of this outer foil 3 contains at least one body colour, which is locally interrupted, so that this body colour leaves free one or more open spaces 4, which may be filled in by one or more transparent colours, if desired. When the open space 4 should form one or more letters, these letters are shown on the inner face of the outer foil 3 in reversed shape.
  • the inner foil 2 may be a coloured foil, whilst extremely interesting effects are obtained, when a diffraction-foil or a holographic foil is chosen as the inner foil 2.
  • the carrier 1 which may be wholly made of metal, is intended to cooperate with a so-called "nail" 6.
  • textile material extends between the carrier 1 and the "nail” 6.
  • This type of button is called a "nail"-button, a patent button or a bachelor button.
  • the carrier 1 is again wholly made of metal and is provided with an eye 7. This button is indicated as a sewing-on button.
  • the carrier 1 comprises a conical side wall portion 8, against which the beaded edges of the two foils 2 and 3 and the cap 5 rest, while the rear end of this conical side wall portion 8 joins a cylindrical side wall portion 9 of the carrier 1.
  • This cylindrical side wall portion 9 especially aims at realizing a fluent joining between the beaded edges of the foils 2, 3 and the cap 5 on the one hand and the carrier 1 on the other hand. In this way a practically flat rear side of the button is obtained.
  • the button according to figs. 3a and 3b is a so-called press-button.
  • the metal carrier 1 contains a filler part 10 of artificial material or the like, which is positioned between the carrier 1, which is provided with the conical side wall portion 8 and the cylindrical side wall portion 9 on the one hand and the cap 5 on the other hand.
  • a spring means 11 cooperates with a part 12, which is provided with a head, that is clamped between the springs of the spring means 11 in the manner as customary with press-buttons.
  • Textile material extends between the carrier 1 and the spring means 11, as well as between the part 12 and a part 13, which serves for fixing the part 12.
  • a button is obtained, which is wear resistant and which may be manufactured in many different embodiments in an extremely simple manner.
  • the inner face of the outer foil 3 is directly directed to the carrier 1.
  • the printing on the inner face of the transparent outer foil 3 extends over the whole area of this inner face and consists of at least one body colour.
  • the outer foil 3 together with the cap 5 are beaded onto the carrier 1.
