APPLICATION FILED JULY 10, 1911.

JAMES F. SPALDING, OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
BOW-TIE SHIELD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 26, 1912.
Application filed July 10, 1911. Serial No. 637,616.
To all whom it may concern:
Be itknown that I, JAMES F. SPALDING, citizen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bow Tie Shields, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to bow-shields, and my object is to provide a new and useful device of this character from which a bow-tie can be readily detached when soiled or worn out, and a new one substituted therefor.
The device is adjustable to fit different sized ties, and preferably made of sheetmetal or other substantially nondestructible material, so that it will not wilt when sub jected to perspiration, or become easily bent or broken.
The device is intended, primarily, for use with bow-ties made up Without. the customary shield, to effect a saving in the original cost of manufacture and prolong the life of the ties, as the same can be used until worn out and will not have to be cast aside on account of wilted or broken shields while otherwise in serviceable condition.
In order that the invention may be fully understood, reference will now be made to the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1. shows a front elevation of the shield. Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the shield. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the shield showing in dotted lines, the adjustment of a pair of holding-members forming part of the invention. Fig. 4 is a central section on line IVIV of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a .rear elevation of a bow-tie adapted to be used in connection with my device.
In carrying out the invention I employ a shield'l, consisting preferably of sheet-metal and having oppositely-disposed wings 2, adapted to fit beneath a collar in the ordinary manner when the device is being worn.
3 designates a hook turned down rearwardly from the upper central portion of the shield and adapted to either [it over the upper edge of the collar and shirt-band, or adapted, through the intermediacy of its bifurcated portion 4, to be secured to the collar-button to hold the shield and tie in position.
5 designates a pair of adjustable holdingmembers secured to the front side of the shield by a screw 6 and a nut 7, said screw passing through a pair of longitudinal slots 8 in the rear portions of said holding-members. The forward inturned portions 8 of said holding-men:bcrs are bifurcated for a purpose which will hereinafter appear.
9 designates two pairs of retaining-members integral, preferably, with the upper and lower central portions of shield 1. and bent forward and over the overlapping portions of the holding-members 5, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3.
A designates a bow-tie of ordinary or preferred construction, except that the customary shield and means for securing it to a collar-button are dispensed with. Said tie has a central loop B, the ends of which are secured together by a row of transverse stitching C, which also passes through the rear portion of the tie, to reliably secure the loop in position thereon.
When it is desired to place the tie in position upon a shield, screw 6 is loosened and the holding-members 5 are slid apart to the position shown in full lines Figs. 1 and 3. The bifurcated portions 8 of the holdingmembers are then slid under the loop B in such manner as to straddle the stitching C. The holding members 5 are then slipped toward each other, as shown by dottedv lines Figs. 1 and 3, until their curved portions 19 snugly embrace the opposite sides of loop B, and thus reliably secure the tie in position upon the shield. The holdinganembers are then secured from accidental movement by tightening screw 6. The tie can then be secured in proper relation to the wearers collar by slipping hook-1nember 3 over the upper edge of the collar, or engaging the collar-button with the bifurcated portion of said hook, and slipping wings 2 beneath the downtnrned opposite sides of the collar.
The rear side of the shield is preferably finished in white to correspond with the wearers collar, and the front side of said shield is preferably finished in black to correspond with the tie when a black tie is used.
Should the tie become soiled or worn out,
it can be readily removed and a new one 1. In combination with a tie, a shield therefor, means for securing said shield in position on a collar, adjustable slot-ted holding members for removably securing the tie to the shield, a screw extending through the slotted portions of said holding members to secure them in any of their adjusted positions, and a nut coacting with said screw.
2. In combination with a tie, a shield secure them in any of their adjusted posi tions, a nut coacting with said screw, and a member to lock the nut from turning.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature, in the presence of two witnesses.
