Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of clothing accessories and more particularly to the field of ties and tie ties.
  • Tying a tie correctly has always been and still is a problem for many people. Indeed, the complexity of a tie knot can be difficult to master.

  • the shell includes openings at each apex of the cylinder.
  • the strands of a tie are threaded through these openings to give the illusion that the tie is tied.
  • this type of tie knot is not very reliable. Indeed, it regularly requires a re-fixation of the knot that is not held well enough on the tie.
  • the present invention therefore aims to overcome one or more of the disadvantages of the prior art by providing a tie tie which does not require re-attachment to the tie and which allows to have a straight and symmetrical node unlike handmade knots that are asymmetrical in most situations ..

  • the two-position spring is a helical torsion spring forcing the trigger to move from its locked position away from the rigid tongue to its locked position against the rigid tongue.
  • the trigger comprises a cam mounted to rotate about a fifth axis perpendicular to the trigger, the cam applying a controllable force against the rigid tongue.
  • controllable force applied against the rigid tongue is exerted by a helical torsion spring causing the cam to rest against the tie inserted.
  • the cam also comprises an abutment system limiting its amplitude of rotation about the fifth axis.
